Dakotaraptor, The Fast Brute


TheBarghest

Suggestion

There aren’t that many dromeosaurs in ARK Survival Evolved currently with there only being like two in the game that being the Raptor/Utahraptor and the Deinonychus along with the little demon that is the Microraptor which is why I am suggesting to add the Dakotaraptor to ARK Survival Evolved. The Dakotaraptor also known as Dakotaraptor Stenini was an extinct genus of dromeosaurid known from partial skeletons that was unearthed in Harding County, South Dakota, USA in the Hell Creek Formation by paleontologist Robert DePalma in the year 2005 in a bonebed that beared the remains of a variety of dinosaurians and non-dinosaurians and do to it’s rarity in the formation it has been given the nickname as the ghost of the forest. On the Arks the Dakotaraptor also known as Dakotaraptor Brutum meaning brute, beast, or animal in Latin, is a dromeosaur that like the Deinonychus is covered in feathers with it looking similar to a bearded vulture when it comes to coloration and is slightly bigger than the Raptor/Utahraptor being 6 meters or around 19 feet long. It also makes a loud crocodile like bellow similar to the sound of a thunderstorm along with hisses, grunts, growls and a loud guttural roar. It is also able to go quite fast for the creature’s size with it being lean and muscular along with being able to take a lot of damage. It’s bite and claw attacks can also give a bleed effect to things that it is attacking similar to the Deinonychus or Allosaurus. Similar to the Argentavis it can regenerate its health by eating carcasses along with it being able to smell dead bodies and things on low health similar to the Direwolf. It also has a stomp attack and a tail attack along with it being able to latch onto surfaces and creatures similar to the Deinonychus but it can also actually crawl on surfaces much better than the Deinonychus with it being more like the Megalania and the Rock Drake instead of jumping from place to place like the Deinonychus although unlike the Deinonychus it is too big to actually glide but still takes no fall damage do to it’s feathers acting as armor from the fall. It also has a fear roar that scares smaller creatures away such as the Deinonychus and It also has another roar that gives it a new ability called war cry which makes it in raged somewhat similar to the Giganotosaurus with it being able to deal around two or three times more damage to things than normal along with giving it glowing red eyes although unlike the Giganotosaurus it won’t kill you too. You can also craft the saddle for it at level 42 with it’s saddle having two leather pouches at the back similar to the Equus along with some weapons hanging off it like a sword or axe. Also similar to the Deinonychus you need to steal their eggs in order to tame it and while you can find the Deinonychus up on open cliffs, you can find the Dakotaraptor in the dense redwoods and higher up in elevation in more mountainous terrain near the peaks of mountains. You can also find them mostly living alone although you can also rarely find them in lose mobs of three or four compared to the typical wolf like pack hunting that you always see in dromeosaurs.
