The Tidepup is best used as a constant survival companion, giving you passive healing, toxin cleansing, and status‑effect removal while you explore caves, swamps, or dangerous biomes, and its unique ability to let you carry a second shoulder pet makes it even more valuable for mobility or utility combos. It’s extremely hard to lose thanks to its self‑protective dormant form, so you can safely bring it into risky areas, and once it matures into its larger amphibious form, it becomes a rideable support mount with an expanded healing radius that keeps both you and your tames alive during long fights, boss prep, or ocean travel.
