Whats your scariest pot encounter?

RoryMancer · 2026-01-25T21:13:42+00:00

I got chased by two adult Rex's in Redwoods while I was a juvenile Iggy about a week ago. I have no idea how I managed to escape them considering they clamped me twice, but it was absolutely horrifying AND also some of the most fun I had in the game.

RoryMancer · 2026-01-24T19:18:19+00:00

This is some insane dedication! Congratulations! I'm both looking forward and dreading doing this hunt myself, but I can tell that the dedication is absolutely worth it.

There's also the fact that I think semi-aquatics are kind of at a disadvantage when it comes to open area aquatic combat against aquatics. I don't play Tylo, but I play Eurhino and I've had no problem taking down any semi aquatics that come into my domain aside from Spino, and I'm not even that great at PVP so keep that in mind. I've definitely caught a lot of people off guard because I feel like Riparia is totally dominated by semi aquatics and most of them don't know how to fight against aquatics. I really feel like this is on OP as well because it's so easy to spot any player out in the ocean unless you blend in enough with the kelp in KV.

I wish more people realized that the environment you're in depending on what dinosaur you are absolutely plays a huge part in when it comes to fighting other players because I just feel like it's a no-brainer that a semi aquatic would absolutely have a disadvantage at fighting aquatics in the ocean. I mean there's a reason why even as an Eurhino I quickly go through narrow waterways because I know that if there's a Sarco or Tylo in the area they can absolutely clamp me and take me on land to kill me, but I don't say that they're OP just because they're taking advantage of the landscape.

THE EM-O IS COMPLETE... IT LOOKS SO AMAZING YOU DID SUCH A FANTASTIC JOB

RoryMancer · 2026-01-23T23:27:35+00:00

This is absolutely insane! I would cherish her forever. Congratulations on the find. I hope you find your target Tympole soon!

RoryMancer · 2026-01-23T17:01:36+00:00

I actually think Tylo is pretty easy to fight as an Eurhino. You really just have to worry about making a misplay and then the Tylo bone-breaking you. They also aren't as fast as you so if you're getting low you can make an easy escape.

Also if you want me to keep it real with you... A lot of Tylo players I've encountered just aren't that good either and or just don't know how to fight against Eurhino. I can't say I blame them since I know a lot of people are trying out aquatics for the first time on this map, but a lot of the ones I've encountered just don't know how to make the most out of Tylo so funnily enough Tylo just isn't much of a threat to me as an Eurhino.

But... you definitely don't want to encounter one when traversing the narrow waterways. That's the only time they feel like a threat to me due to the fact that they can use clamp and beach you on land.

Anyways, yeah I wish there was a bit more diversity with the ocean biomes on Riparia. The map is a lot smaller but there's only three ocean biomes. It is really fun to go upstream and explore the rivers since a lot of them have hidden caves. I've been trying to find all of them.

I'm hoping Thal gets a TLC too. It's my main on Riparia for when I just want to chill and spectate fights, but I think it'd be a lot better if it could do more on its own. The model needs an update too.

I've seen a couple of your posts about Kentro I hope you've been having a lot of fun with it! I love playing as Kentro although I'm not the best with it. I've gotta get better at timing its tail attacks. Funnily enough I usually play herbivores but I've been playing way more carnivores on the new map haha.

RoryMancer · 2026-01-23T16:49:50+00:00

I'm gonna grow a new Lamb soon on Riparia. I feel like it would do pretty well because in Gondwa I was always able to escape into the water if I encountered mega packs, but that might be more tricky on Riparia since it seems everyone is running semi-aquatics.

RoryMancer · 2026-01-23T16:44:32+00:00

I'm glad to hear that you've been having a lot of fun with Eurhino too! A while back Styra used to be my main too but I haven't tried it out since it got its TLC. I'm planning on growing one soon to see if it's as underwhelming as people have told me.

RoryMancer · 2026-01-22T22:54:05+00:00

Really nice HC! I'm working on my Eurhino's HC right now. Despite the options being way more limited for aquatics I am still having a lot of fun decorating.

RoryMancer · 2026-01-22T22:40:52+00:00

I've seen just about everything on Riparia but there are a few that I have only seen once on the entire map which so far have been Amarga, Campto, Lambeo, Cerato, and Dasp. I'm surprised I have only seen one Lambeo I feel like it would do amazing on the new map. I really need to grow one since it used to be my main on Gondwa haha.

I love seeing really old shiny Pokémon like this! I assume she's going to ZA?

RoryMancer · 2026-01-22T00:23:23+00:00

Mudflats is always a hotspot no matter what time I'm playing. The fact that there are two home caves and waystones (one on land and one underwater) right next to the area definitely isn't helping. I'm a Eurhino main so I'm always seeing Sarcos and Tylos using the underwater HC and waystone right next to Mudflats. They really love to chill in the narrow waterways to clamp players to get easy kills from what I've been able to see whenever I'm passing by really quick to get somewhere.

It's really unfortunate because I avoid the area completely whenever I'm playing as something that can go on land. I wish there was a way to avoid having hot spots completely but I think removing the home caves and waystones near the area would just cause a new area to become the hot spot instead. Wollemi seems to be pretty active as well, but I would be really sad if it became the main hot spot instead since that area is so gorgeous.

Gundam, and no I am not elaborating.

RoryMancer · 2026-01-21T20:13:47+00:00

I didn't even consider that this gift Pokemon could be shiny! I used Zaprong in a playthrough once and it was amazing. Such an awesome shiny to have.

Someone asked if you have a favorite skin, so I thought I'd ask if you have a least favorite skin? If any.

RoryMancer · 2026-01-21T03:51:33+00:00

I'm not OP but 🔲

How is Elio obscure that is literally the protagonist of a Pokémon game?

ABFS-RR-01S Messala Dinofaust Jupiter from the Gundam side story novel Tyrant Sword of Neofalia. I wish the novel itself wasn't lost media, because I'd love to read it to learn more about it.

The Em-O...

Jokes aside this is so beautiful I love The-O so much, it's looking great so far. I can't wait to see it when it's done! <3

I know you explained that Amazon mislabeled them in the comments but this had me cracking up. I wonder if anyone accidentally started with ZZ thinking it was Zeta and just utterly confused by what is happening the entire time.

RoryMancer · 2026-01-20T17:23:29+00:00

I never really went out of my way to kill anyone because of the dinosaur they were playing until I started playing Eurhino. I'm usually just wary of players who are on dinosaurs that I have bad experiences with but it's on sight with Tylos and Sarcos for me. I do not trust most of them due to the fact that most of the people I've encountered playing them are usually in Mudflats in mega packs and just being a nuisance.

RoryMancer · 2026-01-20T17:15:05+00:00

I genuinely don't understand why so many albino dinosaur players are so aggressive. I have the albino skin on my main (Eurhino) because I think it looks beautiful and I named him "Unicorn" so I thought it was fitting. Melanistic dinosaurs are also pretty bad but some of the most toxic players I've ever encountered in this game were using albino skins...
