Muttaburrasaurus langdoni

Have you ever lost you dino in the woods? Can't you find them? Have you ever dropped your shoulder buddy somewhere, and never seen them again? Or have you struggled finding this wild creature to tame, but whithout any success? Well, worry no more! Muttaburrasaurus, the living tracker, is here to help you!

 

DESCRIPTION: Muttaburrasaurus langdoni is a hadrosaurid found in Australia in 1963. It lived during the mid cretaceous and had a size of 8 meters. It walked on two feet. The most different feature of this animal was the big nasal bone on its head, which was most likely for producing sound or for mating.

 

DOSSIER

WILD: Although Muttaburrasaurus has a size bigger that Iguanodon and Parasaurolophus, it is not commonly a very brave creature. In fact, it is a little bit shy, and it runs away when watching predators even as small as a raptor. Not even humans can approach to it without scaring them. It constantly gathers in small groups of three individuals, but survivors have observed it in groups of five. They are passive creatures that look for food on the ground, and go to the lakes and rivers to drink water. However, it is always with its pack. Such a sociable and shy animal at the same time!

DOMESTICATED: Muttaburrasaurus is a completely social animal. It will not trust you, unless all of them do. This animals can be tamed passively, but you have to approach very slowly (unless you want to scare them). In order to get them to trust you, you have to feed the three of them (unless they are five, where you can just tame two). If you do not feed them all, then they will start to loose their trust, and they will finally run away. 

Once tamed, these dinosaurs have a lot of uses. It seems that survivors ride them to find lost dinosaurs, because of the unique ability of Mutaburrasaurus to find dinosaurs through its roar. Some even use them to look for wild dinos, which they want to tame. It looks very effective, because the more of them you tame, the more area they can cover in searching. But beware! The sound of Muttaburrasaurs seems to attract carnivores when used too repeatedly, so measure your calls with your friends!

SPAWNING

Muttaburrasaurus will spawn in groups o three individuals, with the exception of packs of five, that have >20% of chance of appearing. They will spawn near rivers, where they will be calmly feeding themselves unless a carnivore approaches to make them flee.

TAMING

Muttaburrasaurus will have a passive taming. In order to approach to them, the survivor must be crouched down. Then, they must feed the three of them in the case of packs of three, or two in the case of the packs of five. After 50%, the survivor can get up. If they do not feed the required ammount, the taming bar will lower, until it reaches 0%, when the whole pack will run away.

ABILITIES

Muttaburrasaurus are rideable, will have the ability to search for dinos that have been lost, or for wild dinos around it. You can configure it to look for tamed dinos or for wild dinos. When right click is touched, it will produce a sound that will place a small label on top of the dinos that are selected. This label will say the name and level of the dinos found. When more tamed Muttaburrasaurus are near, they will all produce the sound, increasing the area by 10% with each new individual of the pack. In addition, to level this dino's weakness, they will have a pack buff that will increase their melee atack by 20% with each new individual in the pack, making them effective to use as bodyguards.

I hope you like Muttaburrasaurus! I've always had a problem to find my dinos when I die, and I thought of this as a solution. I hope that if you have the same problem, you can benefit from this! Ragnarok is a big and vast map where creatures can be lost, but with a little bit of luck, they will no more!

Wild: A dinosaur is still a strange sight in the tundra for me but I suppose it makes sense with its large size facilitating gigantothermy. With a unique nasal chamber it heats the air before it breaths and during the worst storms they hunker down in massive herds making them surprising well adapted to the cold. These large herds split apart to forage and they use their unique nasal chambers to call out and keep in contact with each other over large distances. These booming calls can also be used when fighting predators, using infrasound to disorient and damage aggressors. 

Tamed: With their large size producing enough heat to keep the rider warm and stamina rivaling that of the iguanadon it makes an excellent travel mount. In battle, their booming cries drown out even the yutyranus and can break the ranks of even the tightest units while keeping tabs on your own troops. They can also focus their sound wave into a blast that deafens targets.

 

 

Potential abilities: 

  • Debuffing call: removes/prevents opposing sound based buffs and debuffs (wolf howl, yuty roar), also temporarily removes pack buffs

  • Herd buff: increased damage resistance, movement speed and sonic attack radius for each herd member 

  • Infrasound: aoe attack, prolonged exposure causes confusion (tames run around attacking wildly and riden tame and players have their controls inverted

  • Sonic cannon: long range attack the causes targets to go temporarily deaf, tames  will ignore whistles, damage decreases with distance, range increases in a group
