Once, way back when I was a noob, I put my base right next to a swamp. Actually, I did that twice. I figured out how to kill these glorified anacondas (which should be be bigger coz right now they’re about the same size as a REAL anaconda). Basically, they’re all slower than a low lvl player walking backward, so you walk backward, slowing down a little so they’re close enough to hit, and you punch ‘em in the snout till Dey dead. Anyway, once I walked a little tooooooo close to my base, and a snek killed my favourite tame, a little dimorphodon I’d named Poison Ivy because it was purple and green.
