Tips & Strategies
Easily the most useful creature I've ever tamed.
They are absolute beasts at everything. Jacks of all trades. And more.
They run faster than wolves and sabertooths, they have a weight stat that rivals rexes and mammoths, their health can be pushed higher than any wolf or saber as well, and can gather chitin/keratin at ridiculous amounts per kill, their damage rivals wolves and sabers, can knock down trees in 1-2 hits, they have what seems to be a nearly infinite stamina pool once levelled a few times, can climb any vertical surface in the wild and almost all built structures, can pounce from vertical surfaces to disable/damage mid to small-sized creatures, and can jump vertically, nearly 4 walls high making escapes easy; the list goes on.
70+ pelt per rhino. 70+ chitin per scorpion.
Just .. be careful. Be wary when you walk/fly into the redwoods.
More Thylacoleo Utility Tips
Thylacoleo has a bleed effect that does % of hp damage over a small amount of time. i killed my first titanosaur with my thyla but attacking and running when it agro’d BUT you can’t let the bleeding deal the finishing blow. This just happened and my thyla and I didn’t get the xp.
Hit the sky button so people don’t make my mistake and miss out on heaps of xp 🤥
Thylacoleo are capable of pinning down flyers in mid-flight (anything but the Quetz and Wyvern, I believe), other Thylacoleo, and even Therizinos. You can also jump from object to object by holding down the jump button while pouncing from a tree or cliff (have to hit it at the right angle, however).
The thylacoleo is an extinct genus of carnivorous marsupials that lived in australia from pléistocène to the late pléistocène (2million to 46 thousand years ago). He were the largest mammalian predators in australia of that time. The estimated average weight for the species (thylacoleo carnifex) ranges from 101 to 130kg
