Elgar Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 From the wiki : Quote Roles Transport: The Pachyrhinosaurus has a good carry capacity and can be ideal for local transport, especially since the Pachyrhinosaurus Saddle allows an extra passenger to ride along. This alone can allow one to ride the Pachyrhino while the other can wield a weapon protecting the tame and the other rider. Its calming essence can also be useful if one runs into small to medium-sized carnivores such as Raptors and you don't have a convoy or simply don't want to fight, as the Pachyrhino's base speed and damage sometimes won't be enough. (Level Weight, Speed, Stamina, and some Health) Turret /Projectile Soaker: Similarly to how the Triceratops has a facial shield made out of bone, the Pachyrhino also shares this trait and is dealt with greatly reduced damage when shot at the head. This can be especially useful for Turret soaking, as it can face its head towards the oncoming projectiles and tank them. The head shield can also be useful in blocking bullet shots from enemy survivors. Use Sweet Vegetable Cakes to heal during the process in order to further drain turrets. (Level Health). Gatherer: The Pachyrhinosaurus, like most herbivorous creatures, can gather Berries, which can come in handy in the right instances and for large berry harvesting if no other creatures are available. Pachyrhinos are also quite adequate at collecting Silk and Rare Flowers, excelling in doing so compare to the majority of other gatherers but out-done by mounts like the Therizinosaur. It can also gather Wood and Thatch. Pheromones: The Pachyrhino has the quirky ability to release a mist containing a chemical and pheromone concoction that can either calm or rage nearby creatures depending on the one used. The calming affect is entirely unique to the Pachyrhino, however its release of a raging mist is similar in concept to the Ammonite when it is harmed, the Pheromone Dart when shot at a creature or survivor, the Magmasaur when attacking and blowing smoke, and the consumption of a Rare Flower. Both of the Pachyrhino's pheromone abilities last for 20 seconds each. Despite the Pachyrhino being rather slow, it can still make great use and versatility with its pheromones when used correctly and creatively. Calming Essence ( Hidden): Its alternate attack (Rmb) expels a calming essence that makes you invisible for most hostile dinos (Doesn`t work with anything generally the size of a Rex or bigger). Using such an essence is useful in protecting you and the Pachyrhino from most wild dangers, but can also be utilized for assisting with difficult passive tames such as taming the Hyaenodon or Onyc as it can keep them calm. Raging Essence ( Rage): Pressing C will expel a raging essence that makes a variety of dinos attack you, such as the Dodo or Parasaur. Some herbivores like the Carbonemys and Triceratops may still ignore you though. This ability to expel gas that can sway the temperament or disposition of most creatures can be used in a variety of clever and creative ways. Some examples of use for this mist ability include but are not limited to: Angering fish nearby into a bait ball which allows easier fishing, enabling safe cave travel and sometimes allowing an artifact to be taken with ease, preventing animal fleeing during a knockout tame, attracting a swarm of nearby animals as a diversion or escape tactic, attracting nearby animals for mass taming or luring a potential tame into a trap, pacifying most annoying and aggressive creatures, pretending the mist are farts for a comical experience, and so on. The potentials are truly great. Level Health, Movement Speed, and some Stamina. Bog Biome Transport: With its ability to use pheromones, the pachyrhinosaurus can help players traverse the bog biome by using its calm essence to protect it and the player from the surrounding predators with the only danger being the X-Spinosaurus since it is immune to its calming essence.

Bruvas78 Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 I remember when these things would constantly give you swamp fever. They'd always spawn near our main rock mining area. To be honest, I think they should bring it back in otherwise their only real purpose is to provide meat for babies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
