Honestly, they are not good tames (my opinion), they are a passive tame that is a "shoulder animal" but u cant put them on or shoulder, they just follow you, so they easily get stuck and u lose them.

Some people say that they are good for defending bases, hum.... They can be, but i think there are loads of other animals that are much better at doing this.

They dont farm sh#t.

They dont have any special atk ou abilitys.

They are small so u cant mount, but big enough so u cant put them on your shoulder, etc.

For me they dont serve any porpouse besides pissing u off in caves.

Iffff they got a buff, maybe it will be a nice tame, especialy if u can put it on your shoulder and have the ability to make the other cave creatures not agro on u, like the spider, arthro, etc.

But the way it is now, i think its useless

(Sorry for grammar mistakes)

I think you should be able to out them on your back and use them as a glider

I think instead of them just sitting there they should hang upside down

I have 8 very high level bats protecting my Dino pen and during an offline raid on me the bats swarmed the three raiders and managed to kill all three of them. The had journeyman Flak and mastercraft weaponry. So in the near future I will be taming many more of them

Should these things land and when they land, you can pick them up and use them as a weapon?

The onyc’s damage is really good for its size, it’s considered to be a medium tier damage dealer, inflicting 35 damage, about the same as a carno.

They’re useful for combat but it would be nice if it could latch to your back and give you a second jump, to make it just a bit more useful like the rest of the dinos. Double jump Onyx backpack would be nice
