Overview Tropeognathus is a large pterosaur, specializing in defensive play. A creature with an 8-meter-long wingspan, it almost seems as if such a monster should hardly be able to get airborne. It grows at the speed of Megalosaurus, and with several unique mechanics to assert its dominance, Tropeognathus is sure to be a rival to any lightning-quick Pteranodon that may try to challenge it! Despite the imposing stature, its diet consists mainly of fish.
Tropeognathus Mechanics
Abilities Wing Beat
-To use Wing Beat, press the Ability key while facing another player (it can’t hit behind you) -It can be used while in flight, or while on the ground -If it hits another player, both you and them will be knocked back. It deals significant injury and moderate damage to the hit player -Just like Spiky Shield, successive uses of Wing Beat now get 35% more expensive until its DR wears off, after 30 seconds. This will also reduce the damage and knockback -It is improved by the Deadly Wings talent
Master of the Skies
-Baseline weather resistance is equivalent to 3/3
Unique Talents Strong Bond
-This talent is only in the Tropeognathus tree, as a survival Tier 3 talent. -While grouped and close to your mate, you and your mate both receive a large boost to your max HP, Stamina, and Ability -If both the mated Tropeognathus have the talent, it stacks additively between the two -It increases with the (in-game) friendship level between you
Deadly Wings
-This talent is only in the Tropeognathus tree, on the bridge between the Power and Survival trees -This talent improves how much damage and injury Wing Beat inflicts
Swift Wings
-This talent is only in the Tropeognathus tree, on the bridge between Mobility and Survival -This talent reduces the cooldown, ability, and stamina cost of using Wing Beat
Tips:
-It costs stamina to take off from the water, so make sure you have enough! This can be made less costly with the Improved Takeoff talent. -You can grab creatures and items of fairly large size when flying- use this to your advantage! You’re better at this than ptera, so you can grab smaller pterosaurs out of the sky if they’re of the right size. -If a Pterandon attacks, you don’t need to chase them, let them come to you. If a flock descends on you however, then you might have an issue! -You turn pretty slowly in the air. Be sure to always angle yourself towards incoming Pteranodon to use Wing Beat. -It takes a little while to begin diving, bear this in mind when trying to evade.
Trivia
-Tropeognathus was originally going to be 150% as big, with a 12 meter wingspan! -The Strong Bond talent was inspired by mated albatross pairs. -Tropeognathus can carry two creatures at once.
