  1. Cricosaurus is a creature that looked like a crocodile and the tail of a dolphin. These are my ideas for it. Wild The cricosaurus lives in the waters of Ragnarok and eats fish and anything else near it. It can freely travel onto land but it is much slower. In the water though is where it shines. It gains a mobility boost that allows it to soar through waters at incredible speeds, making it the griffin of the oceans. They also can hide on the sand below. This also works in deserts with isolated oasis being the perfect ambush opportunity. Attacks The cricosaurus can swim at excellent speeds, so why not utilize it? The cricosaurus can swim in a circle with great turn radius and if kept up, can create a whirlpool to stun creatures in it. This works like the storms in Genesis 1 but are way less devastating. The next attack is a basic bite that is just left click. It does good damage when attacking consistently. Right click is a combo strike where the cricosaurus bites and slashes in front of it. This does a secret ability called poison lock which prevents any creature of doing any attack except left click. This is because of the venomous spurs in its web-like feet that are retractable. It does great damage and can also cancel the sprint button. It has a thirty second cool down and the venom lasts for about 10 seconds. The c button is a sand burrow that allows it to stalk the sand floor. Anything near it will have a reticle locked on it and you can perform a devastating pounce at the enemy. It does great damage and also applies poison lock. The cool down for the attack is a minute and this time the venom is 20 seconds. Then the control button is an aesthetic growl that presents your cricosaurus showing it's deadly spurs. Taming method You can use prime fish or superior kibble for taming food. Angler gel can also be used because they are found in the deeps. Simply drop the item near them when you spit one burrowed and it will pounce at it. While it eats it, you can swim at it and it will buck up and shoot off. Feed it taming food when prompted. Sometimes they will zoom to the bottom and sprint across the floor in a momentum dash. Hold the s key to avoid being thrown off. Once tamed, you can ride it without a saddle, and you can still have armor on it due to the scales. But equipping one gives you benefits such as oxygen and thornmail armor but it is far inferior to shadowmanes. While it has natural armor, it has low health so unless you have a battle plan, you maybe shouldn't take on the mosas and tusos yet. Mobility tactics The cricosaurus has a good mobility able to outpace a megalodon at normal speed, when you sprint you can outpace a sarco. By double tapping sprint you get a speed burst and aiming down allows you to skim the seafloor at lightning speed. By pressing c to burrow, you create a sand cloud to blind anything in the radius until they leave. The cloud lasts for a few seconds and AI lose their aggro to you. This makes it the griffin of the sea. By pressing space once by the surface, you can jump out and dismount people on flyers above. Have fun. Pressing it once under the surface can turn you to the side to prepare a whirlpool. Weaknesses Everyone has tried to make a overpowered creature before, but they must have weakness. Here are all the dinos they are not effective against -basilosaurus is immune to the poison lock. -tusoteuthis does massive damage with grab attacks and can avoid the hitbox of left click strikes. - while one or two megs can be taken down without much difficulty, three or more can surpass the armor of a cricosaurus easily. -mosas can kill them quick and easy. - tek can shred, no counters other than avoid. - slow on land. Strategies to avoid weakness -basilos are passive and you can outpace them if they are tamed. - tusos take more damage to left clicks and are vulnerable to poison lock. -with the mosas terrible turn radius you can hopefully flank it or stun it with poison lock. - just avoid conflicts with many megs - why go on land? Summary The cricosaurus acts as a ocean griffin and can perform stunning attacks. With good attack, amazing mobility, natural armor, and a defensive saddle, this is what you need to explore arks oceans. Goodbye
  2. Also a dodopithecus can fire flaming poop at opponents. That would be really funny.
  3. Asa, will you have the classic holiday events, and will there be an aberration creature vote, and will you bring back the dodorex and dodowyvern? Also maybe there could be dodo variants for other maps like a dodoreaper, dodogarmr/ dodolonasaur, dodomagmus (magmasaur version), and dodosummoner? I thought a dodomane would be pretty boring and summoners haven't gotten any love. Maybe even dodononychus, dodopithecus, dodosulfr, dodognathus, and dodomosa? I think more dodo variants would make other maps without the rex or wyvern more interesting during events, especially having more options to choose from during the Thanksgiving or Christmas events. Imagine speeding through the waters on a fire powered mosa, or building an army of dodos with the summoner, or doing fire bursts on a mana, or spitting lava on the magmasaur or using the reaper to fire flaming debris. The possibilities are endless! Please WC, please!
  4. I'm too stupid to know what everyone has been taking about during this backlash. My only complaint is that if wildcard never does anything, the least they could do is add some other extended events with MORE COLORS than just 25% other than that, I don't know what to expect and what the next jaw- dropping news is gonna be about, and how the backlash will grow from it.
  5. Why can't wildcard just upgrade current servers into ue5 without shutting everything down? But I am a personal fan of all the creatures.
  6. I don't know what is going on, I just want to see the community get better, I don't enjoy the amount of disruption going on, and I love the rhyniognatha, can't wait to see it, and I hope the giant moa wins
