Helpful Tip: Did you know you can hatch eggs using these mfs? First, tame 3 otters, place them in a triangular shape with the egg in the center, then BOOM!! u got yourself a baby dino. Nature's incubator.
Already said but worth saying again - upgrade its melee damage for more cold resistance!
When tamed put these lil guys on wander so they passively make black pearls and silica pearls
They are really good early game black pearl gatherer just throw them in a body of water get them to kill a fish and they will probably get a black pearl
Iβve read many of the comments and I just want to clarify that the otter insulates you. Meaning yes it will protect you from the cold, however it also helps keep you cool from heat.
The otter can be very useful for gathering fish meat β it will harvest fish on demand. You can also use it to forage for Silica Pearls, and it will occasionally find Black Pearls.
it's really important to feed your otter raw fish meat or it will starve! They don't eat normal meat. Learned the hard way. Never again. RIP Nugget.

Quick Tip: You can equip them with a Heavy Minerβs helmet if you want them to also work as a light shoulder pet!
Fun fact: If your on mobile, you can just tap on tames and youβll be able to summon your lost companions.
To the person that lost Otty, Iβm not sure if you knew this but if heβs alive, youβll be able to get him back, he wonβt have his inventory items though
