And their not breedable! Why. I want baby achatina!!!!
U CAN GET CAKES THROUGH CHEF STATION ON MOBILE!
I like to make note that this is a knock out tame
If you are considering breeding these, go slam your hand in a car door a few times. It will be much less painful. Literally one veggie cake per percent of growth....and it grows slow.. Digests roughly one point of food per second, so feed a cake about one for every 7 mins (during event boost) and it will gain one percent of growth.
They can wear hats!!!
Pick it out of the swamp with pterodactyl and plop it around your base
If you are playing Official PvE, you can grapple them with a grappling hook and then fly or walk them back somewhere safer for them to be knocked out, such as your base for example.
As of 12/20 it took 15 shots (5 tail 10 head) to knock out a 150 and 9 veggie cakes. The head, tail, or she'll shots don't seen to make a difference anymore.
They worth the veggie cake. It gives 100 paste and organic polymer. Just level up their food so they won't be hungry fast.
I have 2 bee hives and 7 tree sap taps (important to make veggie cakes). I can produce more cakes than what my 2 achatina can consume at a time. Now, I never run out of paste and have a lot of veggie cakes (I needed separate refrigerator just for my cakes)
