Tips & Strategies
Where to start with such an amazingly annoying little plant? You load into a new world and BAM, there’s a ton of these hidden somewhere just shooting at you. Pretty annoying, but in the early game it’ll deter you from going anywhere near that juicy base. Farm up the required Wood, Stone, Thatch, and Fiber and you’ll have enough to create a Large Crop Plot. Tame a Phioma and maybe a Parasaur or Iguanadon to get some Stimberries, and you’ll have fertilizer essentially forever. Get a water source up and running and you’ll have a pretty good base defense until you can fully upgrade to some Heavy Turrets. Spam a few dozen or so around your base and you’ll stop just about any beach bob from raiding you for a while. Just make sure to keep the fertilizer stocked as that’s their source of power. Solid early game defense.
