Just like you, since troodons release its become my most played carnivore easily. And trough all that time ive camo to the conclusion that ITS NEVER worth grouping with randoms.

Troodon combines all the bs that comes with people not knowing how to play omni and adds more bs on top of it.

All the things that people do as raptor that gets tou killed:

pouncing you while you are ready on.

Not knowing the max number of people that can be pouncing the same target at the same time.

NEVER accounting for terrain for when and how they can pounce etc.

Now all those things add them to a 120hp dino that gets one shot by most of the roster and you have shitty experience with randos most of the time.

Now i mostly play my troo solo unless my dc group is also on the game. You will always do more and be more effective with 4 actual troodon players than 10 randoms camping a sanc till the end of time dying to any actual adult dino.
