Tips & Strategies

Absolutely love these little gremlins. They like to come ip to you and stare at you for a moment, then attack when the pack is assembled. THEY ONLY EAT REALLY QUALITY MEAT! Also, the babies are, like, microscopic, so I’ve had several cases of one escaling out the door and never seeing it again (then getting a “Coraline, Lv. 6 (Compy) died!” notice a few minutes later :(), so if you must breed them, make sure you have TONS of prime meat (which spoils VERY FAST) and make sure the babies stay in a secure location because they are FAST. My favorite thing to do is have a pack of, like, 20 folowing me around and watch as they take down a Raptor nearly effortlessly. Hilarious (also, VENGEANCE >:)).

Where there's one, more will slowly spawn in. They won't attack you unless in a group of two or more. The bigger the crowd, the more damage they do.
Warning: If you hear one near you it won't attack, but just know there will be more and THEY will eat your toes!
Burn them.. burn them with fire
Me and my rex level 236 walking to them

My Rex:they are only curious
Compys:bite us

If you are a low level and one of these runs up to you, don’t move. Don’t move or attack it. Just watch it. Don’t look away. It will run after a minute, probably (has happened to me) for reinforcements. When it does, turn around and RUN. if you want to tame one, bola it or it WILL get reinforcements! Up this for tiny low levels!
OH GOD COMPYS!!!
WHO ADDED THESE
Very dangerous, very annoying. Also kinda cute. This is the compy, or compsognathus. It is a pack dino, which means it gets a pack bonus if there are other compies around. They are very small, which means if you attack one, others could quickly stream out of the small berry plants. However, they are relatively slow and quite low on health, so if many threaten you, don't bother fighting them. 1. Because it's a bad idea for new/low lvl players. 2. Because they barely give any hide or meat
Alone, you may cause me to scurry
But when i bring friends you might worry
We naturally become vicious
To what we find nutritious
So take us down in a hurry
