Name: Saurophaganax maximus
Diet: carnivore
Temperament: aggressive
Wild
Saurophaganax Maximus may be one of the most terrifying creatures any survivor could come accross in the ARK. These creatures are almost the size of a rex. However, I have yet to see any of the beasts out in the daytime and even in the nighttime are almost impossible to spot due to their almost completely invisible camouflage. Saurophaganax are very fast active hunters and are constantly looking for their next prey. This habit contributes to their constant frothing with blood at their mouths (which i have concluded to be the sign of a healthy Saurophaganax!). Most sightings of this creature have been seen stalking their prey in pairs consisting of a male and female. They seem to live in caves shallow caves near Volcanoes, in forests, and near mountains.
Taming Method
Getting your hands on a Saurophaganax is not a run-of-the-mill task. First you will have to kill these creatures in order to get enough samples of a special type of blood they give. Next you will have to find a wild baby Saurophaganax. The babies are always found in the nighttime and always alone. But once found the babies could either be aggressive or skittish (more on that below). Next you will have to passively feed it the special Saurophaganax blood, and soon you will have a killing machine in your tribe!
Wild Baby Temperament
Wild Baby Saurophaganax have two temperaments: Aggressive or Skittish.
Aggressive babies will immediately attack you on sight and just like their parents posses a very gashing bleed. Skittish babies however will all the time decide to run away if spotted by a survivor (I recommend wearing a gillie suit for these types!). There are some differences between these two personalities. An aggressive baby will usually mean a higher attack damage, while a Skittish baby will have a higher health or stamina stat in the wild. To feed a aggressive baby you will need to weaken it significantly and then it will become passive, allowing you to feed it. A skittish baby will require you to be sneaky and feed it the blood passively.
Raising
Once tamed the Saurophaganax adults and babies will stop frothing blood and will be replaced with saliva. However, they don't seem to listen to any whistle commands and are to always hyper aggressive! The only way to keep a Saurophaganax in check is by making a special muzzle made out of metal. This muzzle restricts all biting attacks and will set them to passive or neutral.
(Muzzle concept)
While raising, the baby will request a many types of foods to feed and imprint them. These foods include: raw meat, prime meat, chitin, argentavis talons, raw fish meat, raw prime fish meat, honey, superior kibble, and Saurophaganax blood. (Will rarely ask for cuddles and walks and food requests cannot be changed via cryopods).
Attacks & abilities
Saurophaganax has many Attacks and abilities at to give you the upper hand in battle!
Bite Abilities
Feeding these to your Saurophaganax will give different effects to your Saurophaganax’s standard bite. These effects remain until fed any kind of berry.
Saurophaganax blood: Your tamed Saurophaganax will begin to froth blood and deliver a gashing bleed with its bite.
Raw Metal: Your tamed Saurophaganax will stop frothing at the mouth with and have metallic teeth. Allowing it to deal even greater damage than before.
Drinking lava: You will drink lava and take some burning damage. After the burning subsides, the Saurophaganax will begin frothing lava and be will be able to deal fire damage along with its bite.
Narcotics: You will start frothing a sort of Toxin and be able to deal torpor however significantly lower your damage.
Bloodthirsty Rage
At nighttime a bar will appear above your hotbar and will fill up the more standard damage you do. Once filled, you will be able to activate your rage. Rage mode increases damage, speed, and reduces projectile damage for 3 mins. Once it runs out, your stamina will completely deplete and will take longer to regenerate. Cooldown is 5 mins.
Attacks:
Bite - bite with the standard or different effects
Claw swipes - will deliver two swipes with both claws
Stomp - will stop twice dealing high damage
Camouflage - an almost completely invisible camouflage
Roar - a sick roar for aesthetics B)
Hello all! This is my 1st time ever doing something like this so feel free to send any feedback or suggestions for this creature.
