DakoTako Posted April 8, 2023 Share Posted April 8, 2023 Pls! We need this Creature in Scorched. Remember, the suggestion is not really mine! This is all part of @Shockal!, it was my mistake at first not contacting him to see if he would let me present it again, give him credits on Twitter! He deserves it. Credits to Shockal for The original Fjordur Submission and @RaptorRampage07 for The Dossier! The Dossier: https://twitter.com/Dakotaski2/status/1646991804414263297?t=V0WONFUpxVw8wZfh81lNQA&s=19 Diet: Insectivore (Eats bugs). Does eat Raw Meat when tamed. Temperament: Neutral (But aggressive against wild bugs) Rideable: Yes (saddle goes under its belly like a Gacha) What does it do?: It's big, deadly, and swinging right into your house - the Armadillosuchus is a burly monster who loves seeing structures go boom! By grappling onto a far-away object with its tongue, it turns into a wrecking ball and pivots its way forward, smashing down anything in its path with brutal force. What more could you ask for when you need a pesky wall knocked down? But there's more to the Armadillosuchus than just structure demolition. Its signature wrecking ball attacks works on creatures too. Knock foes away for serious damage! If a creature is big enough, you can even directly grapple and slam into them! (Has a cooldown, of course) Just want to travel? It can do that too! Simply roll and grapple across the map at high speeds. You can even skim across the surface of water if you pick up enough momentum, or slow down and sink to the ocean floor for some deep-sea exploration. Worried about getting stuck on trees or rocks? Well don't worry, as the Armadillosuchus will destroy them as it rolls through. Scared of being attacked off your Armadillosuchus? Well also don't worry, since the rider is completely concealed inside the ball... but there are counters to this. What is it weak to?: - Fire. An enflamed Armadillosuchus will stop rolling and begin panicking, leaving its rider suddenly exposed. - Plant Z or explosives can scare a rolling Armadillosuchus and force it out of its ball form. - Netguns. For obvious reasons. - Two Armadillosuchus crashing into each other will stun them both. How do you tame it?: The Armadillosuchus loves destroying walls, so why not befriend it by letting it do its favorite activity? Aggro a wild Armadillosuchus and let it crash and destroy your walls, and its taming percentage will slowly increase. Make sure you bring LOTS of walls. Additionally, higher tier walls grant more taming effectiveness - a TEK wall is like kibble for it! Note: A tamed Armadillosuchus deals less damage to structures than a wild one to accommodate PvP balance Won't this creature make the Roll Rat and Doed useless?: Nope. The Armadilloscuhus is a combat/travel mount - not a gatherer. It can't collect wood or stone, therefore it fulfills a different role than the two mentioned. Inspirations: - Bloodstalkers - Wrecking Ball from Overwatch - Volvidon from the Monster Hunter franchise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Natesaurus Posted April 8, 2023 Share Posted April 8, 2023 I remember seeing this during the first vote, and the design kind of reminds me of the Bloodstalker. This, the Bastion Beetle, and the Gorgonops should be one of the victors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a prehistoric reptile by that name, more closely related to a crocodile. Like a lot of submissions, some liberties are taken. If you squint, it looks like a bulked up version.

NerdyGremlin Posted April 8, 2023 Share Posted April 8, 2023 I love this creature. I would see it being better off on Aberration IF Wildcard stays somewhat true to the concept. Still voting it high up if it makes it to top 10. Appreciate the simpler designs that aren't all in for pandering votes and making dull creatures (shantungosaurus and titanoceratops).

H3XANDRA Posted April 9, 2023 Share Posted April 9, 2023 The real world version is not a hulking beast...its like the size of a juvenile croc. Think I would rather a Glyptodon honestly. I Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dinodude Posted April 10, 2023 Share Posted April 10, 2023 tbh i could see this in more of a abberation vibe with the wrecking ball like ability but its a really cool creature with great inspirations Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StarMilano Posted April 10, 2023 Share Posted April 10, 2023 Is this just... Volvidon from monster hunter? Same ball idea, same color scheme, the tongue thing, hell it looks similar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
