Thylas make amazing combat/travel mounts.
They have the stats of a spino which is ridiculous for a creature of this size, and then on top of that, they have many amazing traits which I keep discovering.
To name a few:
-They can run pretty fast.
-They can jump really high and grab onto vertical surfaces and then move up or down on that surface.
-They can do a special attack from vertical surfaces, which in order to perform you have to first move the cursor downwards toward ground and then press the atk button , which they jump unto small and medium creatures , pinning them to the ground for about 8 seconds or so, all the while you can attack them but they can't. Amazing against flyers and stuff.
-They can do their attack while sprinting and jumping.
-they can instantly turn around 180° to attack those creatures that attack you from behind. Which you can't turn around to attack them on many other mounts. To do this 180 spin, press jump while looking towards the back of your mount.
-They can control their jump, press back or forward to control where you fall.
-They can and prefer eating cooked meat , which eating them makes thylas heal much faster than raw meat or berries that normal tames can eat.
-their attack also does bleeding damage which piercers armor and depletes around 5% of the bitten creatures health over 5 seconds. Ranking their damage dealing capabilities off the charts.
-their main attack has good range. Making you able to attack creatures outside of their damage dealing range. For example you could attack from on top of a rock while raptors and such keep looking at you.
-as mentioned earlier, their stats are all really high, which makes them a pocket rex/spino. (damage, health, stamina are very high and weight is also quite high)
