So, Crystal Isles isn’t out. I’m not even sure if it’s coming out for PS4. But this boi is!

All my knowledge in the following is for PS4.

Classic mount:

This dinosaur is decently slow, attack being pretty weak (R2). It IS used as a grinder, I’m just not sure how yet. It can also fly forwards, backwards, & side to side.

Saddled:

I must say, before I used the saddle I was a bit disappointed. It was slow, weak, and pretty useless. But...

Its’ saddle has a mounted gun, used with the Grenade.

It also has a jetpack/rocket booster, which clicking R/Right Joystick activates. If you then click R again, you do a fancy spin thing, hitting L2 fires Grenades, and holding R deactivates the Jetpack.

All in all, I’d say this creature was worth waiting for, and I give it a 10/10 for Raid Dinos.

Happy Taming!

I wish this was a predator. Like a sky giga. The sky is too easy in ark.

An ascendant version of their saddle is way too op especially in pvp. Against stone walls it’s like shooting a nuke at a pebble.

Found a journeyman saddle in a red supply drop. It looks like better quality saddles boost the damage of the grenade turret 🙌🏼

This Dino has a total of 5 different speeds!

[Without Saddle]

It has basic flight speed and sprint flying

[With Saddle]

Once you activate jet mode you will automatically be moving forward, but if you also press your forward key it will go faster, and on top of this it has a boost mode. (assuming sprinting with jetpack)

It also has an evade while in jet mode which makes the dono do a full 180° turn.

As of July 2nd 2020, they no longer give hard poly when grinding. :(
