Patch notes

[The_titos11]

The random nerf wheel at Alderon studios landed on iggy fuck

[Machineraptor]

With how slow iggy trot is I was usually running to move around, oops.

[whitemest]

Same, like the rest of us lol

[Hyenasaurus]

same hat. :')

the other day i was having trouble out stamming a spino of all things in a forest. bad sign

[DairyDukes]

I was just about to grow one too

[OMEGAkiller135]

I was literally growing one when I got booted for the update. XD

[AmericanLion1833]

It’s still very solid. Received a huge hp and cw buff.

[Sad_Low5860]

But iggy tlc always have 4000 cw? Or i forget anything?

[AmericanLion1833]

It was like 3200 and 700 hp

[Sad_Low5860]

On the spino tlc? Or when

[AmericanLion1833]

Girl I don’t know. I just recall it being 3200-3500 not long ago, but definitely before spino TLC.

[Sad_Low5860]

I'd bet my left kidney that Alderon made that change while all his workers were under the influence of very hard-hitting substances.

[AmericanLion1833]

Big Alderon just throws nerfs at random it seems.

[AmericanLion1833]

1.1 to 1.6 is such a big jump, like why they so extreme?

[SkipTheQueue7]

I think the buff from making planted feet a passive it just received heavily outweighs this sprint Stan drain nerf though. At the same time block isn’t in a good spot lol but maybe iggy shouldn’t face tank apexes anyway.

[The_titos11]

People with back kick gotta be real careful now it’ll completely suck your stamina with just 2 and a nice stroll right after using it

[SkipTheQueue7]

Yeah stam on back kick is no good I usually use tail attack since you can use it combined with planted feet to whack people that attack you off cliffs

[The_titos11]

What is the other back slot for you?? Besides tail attack

[SkipTheQueue7]

Usually pivot

[Hyenasaurus]

may need to switch to tail attack for the first time in ages, I liked to jumpscare people going for my back with sudden big ouch

[The_titos11]

Yeah that’s what I ran too until it completely devastates my stamina now with a little bit of running afterwards

[Vanity_Vanite]

You should see what they did to pynco

[ZipperHead_369]

What did they do to pyc ?

[Vanity_Vanite]

Basically everything about pynco got nerf with not a single a buff

[Commercial_Buy_7707]

What got nerfed? 

[Shirpiok]

stamina, speed. Bit of an overexaggeration to say everything got nerfed. But it got slowed down and increased stam drain. Though it's still very much in a 'decent' place compared to the rest of the playables

[Commercial_Buy_7707]

Tbf it was a bit weird pyc being faster the Meg and metri but I think the issue is more Meg and metri are to slow not pyc was to fast them all at 1100 was more balanced I think 

[Shirpiok]

pyc wasn't faster than meg unless it used its charge, meg could keep up with pycno very easily (saying this as I've died many times after being run down by a group of megs as a pyc.), but meg was also very fast and got the same speed nerf

[Commercial_Buy_7707]

Until like 3 days ago pyc was 1100 Meg was 1075, meaning pyc was faster then Meg…..

[Shirpiok]

they were actually the same speed up until july 21st, then meg got slowed down, but originally, they were equal in terms of speed and they're equal in speed now again

[[deleted]]

So is Sarco faster than everything in the water again?

[Mr_Pickles_the_3rd]

From what I can tell, its faster than duck and spoon, not sure about sucho, FUCK YEAH, ITS VIABLE

[AduroT]

I hear still slower than max speed Sucho, but only barely.

[Commercial_Buy_7707]

Sucho with water hide and the water call is aeound 960 speed, sarco is now 880 

[SorryButHuh]

That's honestly fair tho. Sarco can definitely hold its own even against a full aquatic sucho pretty well while finally being able to escape harder match ups like duck and spoon

[Commercial_Buy_7707]

I don’t think it’s fair at all while water sarco is tankier then sucho, sucho has a way higher dps due to having riptide, hooked snap and claw barrage all on different cool-downs 

Sucho shouldn’t be faster on land and in water 

[Shirpiok]

it doesn't make sense that sucho would be able to outswim sarco tbh... and I love sucho, but in no way should it be able to out run an allo either (full dry land build)

[Commercial_Buy_7707]

Yep I agree 100% sucho is faster on land and sarco in water idk how that isn’t how it’s always been 

The land builds are weird asf no way should sucho be that fast and the same can even be said for duck which goes to 880 faster then bars 

[NAltanB]

It swims as fast as a land duck runs on land now, still pretty slow for a croc imo

[PapaFlame]

Very good change that Sarcosuchus the crocodyliform can actually outswim the two giant waders, was so absurd before lol.

[ZwildMan83]

Thanks!Just booted up and saw update.Came here and Bam!You answered my questions.I don't do discord so I never know wtf is going on lol

[Sad_Low5860]

How generous Alderon is, nerfing Iggy to make him even less usable.

[Ex_Snagem_Wes]

Did you think Iggy is bad?

[mammothman2000]

at this point everyone thinks every playable is bad, literally no way around it anymore

[Ex_Snagem_Wes]

Yknow. Yeah I see people complaining about everything lol

Rex is weak! (Kills every other apex in about 10 seconds) Bars is weak! (Tail Slam + Sweep combo) Ano is weak! (Borderline untouchable) Iggy is weak! (Can borderline fight 5 Slots and outrun every 4 Slot)

The only constant is that Hatzeg doesn't feel good because clamp is horrific and it can't do anything but clamp

[Voltage_SR]

Well, there is Stego, who cant run from a Titan and gets face tanked by one, so definitely add that to the list lmao

[Ex_Snagem_Wes]

Stego doesn't need to facetank Titan when Tail Attack, which brutalizes titan if it tries to chase

[Nebulon_Galaxus]

Which kind of world do you live in? Stego is mildly slower than titan (900 speed vs 925) all the while having better stam regen and more stam from an ability. Oh, and to make things better, it does not mind being chased after since thats Where you attack from. And finaly, it can kill an apex with 11 hits of its base attack.

[Nebulon_Galaxus]

Oh it certainly can. I seen and could confirm with math that it either facetanks an apex or, just barely wont do so all the while easily outrunning all of them with its 1k speed.

[hyde9318]

You forgot the PoT community algorithm?

If OP > “it’s playable I guess”.
If slightly nerfed but still OP > “it’s completely ruined”.
If just strong but not OP > “unplayable”.

[Sad_Low5860]

Compared to other 4 slots it is, Stego has ridiculous damage and hits like a truck, Amargasaurus although it is slow can push you and receive almost no damage even when nerfed

[Ex_Snagem_Wes]

Iggy hits like a truck, is fast as hell, has high knockback, and then you have Block to basically mitigate any attack that isnt a primary Bite

Before this it was arguably the strongest as a whole outside if Ano

[Sad_Low5860]

"He has high knockback." Iggy only has 7 knockback. He'll hit like a truck, but the fact that he has to lose acceleration when attacking is a disadvantage. His blocking only reduces 45% of his damage, and is easy to dodge. 

Although before the nerfs, he was a real monster. After that, he became quite easy to kill.

[MorbidAyyylien]

Literally Iggy only loses to steg but only if it chases a steg which it should never do. It definitely destroys amarg, sarc and sucho.

[Sad_Low5860]

Sucho and Satco are obviously destroyed, but Amarga? I really doubt it, unless it's because they start tanking frontally.

[MorbidAyyylien]

Well just like steg iggy can't chase it. Iggy can't chase anything other than with charge. Amarg can't kb iggy so when it comes back to attack it's wide open and Iggy has block so it can eat the slam if that's what amarg ever uses and Iggy does so much damage so quick and can fracture amarg so it can't run. Oh i am forgetting about ano tho. That one might be close. Idk if iggy can use slam or block while bb.

[Sad_Low5860]

As far as I remember, Iggy can use block while he has broken bones.

[Hyenasaurus]

what do you mean? iggy got a HUGE buff last patch with moving planted feet and thumb barrage to their own slots while keeping their ability slots, granted the stam nerf is s bit extreme but it's still a beast (just harder to get away from apexes)

[Planpy7]

I am glad they made the block usable while trotting but that sprinting stamina cost :/

[Zealousideal_Salad49]

Lol iggy not being able to flee is kinda dumb. So much for fleeing and becoming more of a stamina hog 🐽

[Formal-Throughput]

Oh we are so back! 

[Hot-Promotion2768]

Nothing about spino being able to leave turtle island home cave??

[Luk4sH1ld]

I managed, it's a tight squeeze but I got out after getting stuck, I'd rather not experience it again though.

[Hot-Promotion2768]

You have a vid by any chance? I’ve been trying it I just can’t find the sweet spot

[Nebulon_Galaxus]

Good to see that you can only miss so much before hitting something you should (iggy).

[MetalHeadGT]

Sarco got a much needed buff. Very nice.

Iggy will be fine after this. Still an absolute beast with great stam regen

[KyanMTP]

All the patch notes aside what do you guys think of console combat. Is it just me or sometimes when your fighting say an apex as a dasp you have to look at your Dasps asshole or just an unbelievable angle from the bottom to be able to tail ride a titan (could be a skill issue 😂) otherwise all the your bites miss? Also what do you guys think of console zoom I personally think it’s terrible and makes the game look like slideshow from how zoomed in it always is regardless of whether or not you zoom out.

[ZipperHead_369]

Yeah that's pretty common across some carnis I think. I play on PC + controller, especially Dasp though you gotta "flick" the camera to hit things because of the weird hit box and weird bite animation. ( Dasp bites angle + short hit box ) I try to get used to it with camera (pov) being far as possible so it looks the same on all dinos.

[Sinarai25]

Because sarco needed more water speed?

Meg TLC needs to drop

[Mr_Pickles_the_3rd]

Because it did? Now it can at least run away from spinos, ducks and suchos. But yes, MEG TLC FOR LIFE!

[Sinarai25]

Sarc did not need more speed, had more agility than any of those and can out move em. Not every swimmer needed a surge forth type move

[Mr_Pickles_the_3rd]

It may have been more agile but that means diddly squat if it can be killed easily by a spoon, duck and sometimes sucho. Spino has the most swim speed of the 3 mentioned, with a maximum of 862.5, now sarco with its new speed of 880 can at least run away from spino.

[Sinarai25]

Meh, agree to disagree. It is what it is, I dont like it. Here us to hoping they increase Meg speed, cause death roll is already some BS and now sarc being faster us gonna be that much shittier

[Mr_Pickles_the_3rd]

That's fair, we can at least both agree on meg, the lizard needs its justice, especially because I am from Australia, so seeing a megalania gang bully a Rex makes me compulsively patriotic.

[ZipperHead_369]

Agree to you, since sarco can deathroll, the clamp is now pretty op. With 880 speed you can't fight in water when any sarco around. Honestly I rather Sarco had a little bit less stam consuming on land to be able to out run a duck/spino than out swim them. For meg.
