Going in one direction with change will increase its speed
When breeding Archelon, make sure the babies are fully submerged in water or they will die. In addition, they can be fed with cheaply produced kibble (such as Basic Kibble) if you are running low on biotoxin
Very useful to tame tusoteuthis, since achelon are immune to torpor and have a large amount of health to soak damage.
When tamed, these guys are amazing at getting biotoxin as they canβt be stunned much like basilosaurus. They also are super useful as the algae that generates in their inventory (more effectively while in water) can be used as taming food for herbivores at similar effictiveness as mutton. Archelon is also good at gaming tusos or ceratosaurus due to their super high health and abundance of higher quality saddles in drops
It does more damage when itβs not sprinting.
