I think a paralytic venom could also be nice, it would only happen for a few seconds and only on stage three but it would allow the troodons to actually utilize their damage buff that the venom gives. Also the paralysis would happen based on a chance where every time your opponent gets to third stage, they have maybe like a 10 to 20 percent chance to become paralyzed

You are good at this

devs gotta first fix the stealth aspect of the game reducing crouch walk sound significantly cuz i can still hear em coming from a mile away

I love the concept and the looks of a Cerato but its damage, stunning vomit powers etc. make me hate it, and its kinda sad tbh

could u make one for deino

Wow didnt expect to see your name. I remember running it with you back in Rx days

Thank you :D

cera no longer drains your nutrients just food and water. i think cera is fine, i feel like it feels overtuned because many of the roster have incomplete kits still. being a corpse bully requires it to be strong enough to force things its size away which means it needs to be a capable hunter. it also has a fast food drain time which forces it to hunt and scavenge both

cera is op we all know it plz devs nerf this shit ty. agreed to all u said btw

All the cera players in the comments begging to change the powerlevel of the whole roster but please leave cera brokenly strong XD It DOESNT need to be fast OR a long distance runner. It can eat rotten meat. It gets a body buff to enable it to steal corpses. Change the vomit to sickness instead of direct effect. Cera should be able to punish people who try to attack it. Remove its meat from diet, but leave the organs so its not totally useless to hunt, but also not worth the risk in most cases. Cera should be cleaning up bodies. Not hunting. Not outrunning every herbie. Not face tanking anything its size or larger, without a body buff. There does need to be a larger rebalance. Everyones saying all the carnivores need to be stronger and the herbies need to be weaker, and theyre not wrong entirely... but those are different issues, and the issue isnt necessarily to change everything BUT the cera. Cera is too fast, runs for too long, and the vomit bite is too direct and immediately punishing I understand you guys are all very sentimentally attached, and require a broken playable to compete. But theres comes a point where if your going to keep playing the game, you need to quit having your hand held and actually learn to play the game the way everything else is expected to(or be a herbivore if you cant do that) You can already smell for 10 miles, and eat bones and rotten things. And your not even remotely a pushover. Use your environment, and pay attention. You shoulnt be in the open field fighting carnos and tenos, and you shouldnt be able to outrun them to get away if you make the mistake of choosing to

Btw guys i realised i failed to be specific regarding the 3 sec to wind up. I ment 3 sec to go from a full sprint into a max speed charge. Not from stand still into sprint! That would be horrible. Mb for this oversight! Forgive me😢

Need a really urgent debuff in this charge attack. There s no debuff in this ability

Cera is fine just how it is. Maybe nerf bite to 100 then return to 160 when near body cuz now carno can face tank it! Unless the ceras sucking up food

I have been playing Stego for 3 days I just killed a group of 4 ceratos and 3 carnos and they were all jumping me one cerato stayed back and after he saw everyone die he made friends with me instead, peace through strength

Simply put cera needs to be rewarded more for eating rotten meat and bones, or bullying other carnivores from already dead food, however cera needs to be discouraged more from high activity hunting and fighting other live prey, it should not be above carno in the food chain and even trying to hunt them at times, an adult cera should see an adult carno and decide whether to engage based on if it has a corpse or not, theres a reason it has a group limit of 4 for a reason, and its so low to the ground for its size to be more stealthy while avoiding larger carnivores like allo, its supposed to be the king of scavengers, not the jack of all trades, master of ruining your progress

To be honest other than maybe making it have a cooldown on its charge bite, I do not think Cera is overpowered in the grand scheme of the game. Let me defend my point: all the current herbivores around or above its weight class, if played competently, can easily 1v1 a cera and win. The main issue is the balancing of OTHER carnivores. Carno specifically should be put back to 1800 kg and honestly should receive better stamina. Granted, this would come with a reduced ram ability but in its current state Carno does not have enough going for it and is unrealistically small. The reduction in charge bites will likely help with the vomit-lock problem, and Dilos or Omnis can already take it on in a group. Once Allo comes to the game or even Rex we'll see how decently balanced Cera is compared to them. The current state of the game is simply very herbivore-heavy with most being higher in weight that carnivores (except Deino ofc), and I believe that with the introduction of other carnivores Cera will be much less dominant.

For a change I do not have much to add or disagree with but I will drop these two: They need to eat TOO MUCH for a "small game hunter", if they hunt things on their diet they should be getting enough food from a kill to at least fill 30% of their stomach. A successful ambush hunt takes time to pull off and currently the reward is generally not worth the time spent on it. I would like if Carno had to at least slightly time their charge hit, they start to charge and then have to click attack to 'activate' the attack/knockdown for 1.5-2 seconds. Its to give people facing it another option to try and avoid it, try to bait the timing, but mainly it is to stop Carnos from killing things they have no idea where they are with a precision strike with the area of a carpet bombing. Like they hear something in a massive field of bushes, just charge through it a few times and eventually they kill whatever juvie/small dino like Troodon that was hiding there. Adding limits like these to abilities and attacks can also allow them to be a bit stronger since its no longer just a autopilot to victory but skill based instead.

Bravo!

WE NEED THIS

I like these ideas however excpet for the parameters for carno's knockdown. I play it a lot and I know it can reach 50 meters in about 3 seconds for a knockdown. The issue we have currently is that it can be heard from over 50 meters away. while your changes would make it more quiet we still get the issue of it not being able to capitalize on a knockdowns in the middle of a fight cuz no sane person is gonna allow it to run long enough for a knockdown, and we just end up with carno doing chip damage on top of it having a 10 second cooldown. the original carno back in spiro only needed about 1 second to reach max speed for a knockdown. it sounds fast on paper but compared to the other dinos, a 1 second difference can matter. I believe we need to keep its fast acceleration for instant knockdowns while also implementing chargeblocks. it sounds like the first iteration of gateway carno but keep in mind this carno is smaller and does less damage so it shouldn't be as oppressive as before. that instant acceleration + knockdown will matter a lot against opponents like tenos who are capable of cc just by being stationary. current carno cant fight tenos do to its lack of a consistent stun so it takes much more risk fighting a teno than it did previously.

with allo coming out soon it is going to destroy carno players. they should just return carno to its previous weight or if that is too much land in the middle of when it was heaviest and its curent weight. Good video man and keep it up.

They need to straight up hire you, honestly I think this would be so good for carno and for the meta at large

there’s humans in the isle now???

As a troodon player I agree with the solution like it’s always annoying for them to run away when they know that they’re getting their butts kicked from a pack

It can eat absolutely anything meat related, it has solid health, solid damage, and the bile sickness effect it triggers on other dinos is basically a death sentence, when you get bile sickness in the middle of a fight, even if you are nearly full health, you have minutes before you just start taking damage from starvation and dehydration, along with basically not being able to run away as well either.

They tried to nerf Cera by making it more hungry. It only made the problem worse. They are called body vacuums for a reason. And we got people on the forums complaining about Herra's, because they can't eat their kills in peace under a tree. Had a fool explain to me on a semi-realistic server that if herra's would be allowed to play as intended, he couldn't use 80-90% of the map, because there are trees everywhere. He mained Cera.

In my opinion the cera overperforms because the other land carnis underperform. I found it unnecessary that the recoil was removed from the charge bite. Cera is now an all-rounder. He currently lacks competition. His good endurance is justified by the fact that he doesn't run that fast If you compare the other dinosaurs in terms of size, function and stats, the Cera currently has the best function. I think the other dinosaurs need to be properly adjusted so that they can provide reasonable competition. That's my current thought. Anyway, good video :)

Cera cant be nerfed without teno getting nerfed , but since current cera v carno is a pretty equal fight i dont think cera needs a nerf

GG! i was the maia at 7:54 !

to be honest ceras are weak compared to herbis. Even Tenons that should be in hunting range of most carnis are unbeatable. Herbis have easy to land knocks that 2 shot your dino if even 1 hit lands except for ceras. In general Herbis deal too much damage with their ability to combo hits. Ever Nerf Herbis damage or buff Carnis defense. The only problem i have with ceras is that the charge bite doesnt need to charge at all. It feels like the charge bite reaches its max damage potential in 0,5 seconds. 2 Quick charge bite nearly kills all the other carnis.

Tbh there is so much wrong with Troodon its hard to even start with it: They make way too much noise moving around(exact same sound profile as Omni? Except they rapid fire their footsteps making them super loud). They rely entirely on their venom which makes them super easy to counter. They are super punished for being countered(instant death). They use way too much stamina when stamina is also their only way to do damage. They have too long growth time for being so prone to death. They have arguably the most boring growth experience being entirely useless for almost half of it only getting venom around 48% growth. They are not fast enough to be expected to avoid certain death like Omni or Carno who both have 1 button ways to basically go "I kill whatever Troodon in that general direction". I use you! Latency! *100 Troodons die around the island* etc etc.

So if i get to the point they shouldn't nerd cera but buff other carnis such as carno

And on the other hand we cant consider cera as op cuz its more like the all other carnis are bit weak except for cera and it makes us feel like cera is strong but as i ve seen from the game herbis look so comforted instead of stayin on watch

The reason is i guess there is a lack of carnovore and herbis needs a danger especially stegos maybe thats why they made cera overpowerd to hunt stegos but as soon as other apex predators come out devs will probably nerf cera

Ceras to be played when you lose your Allo or Rex on a server but you don’t wanna be too small

Is 3 minutes and 20 seconds stam duration really bad or do they lose too much stam when pouncing?

i like this idea, i think 35% is too much though. 5, 10 and 15% on top of dmg buff would be fine. or could give troo in packs with a purple target a frenzied type of stat, where their stam costs while target is in stage 3 is halved

Nail on the head here with this one 👍

Leave it alone but buff the carno to give it a a rival

to me cera is fine, the bile could be nerfed, but tbh ceras are easy to kill, just the bile makes it a pain

Or another option is Troodons are typically slower than alot of the playables, atleast most carnivores anyway. Only topping at what 45Km/hr? And thats with nocturnal or photosynthetic. Something else that the venom could potentially do if not a stamina debufff would be a speed debuff. Not only would this allow Troodons to chase and hunt down their prey but it could also be used as an aggressive escape mechanic. Similar to how pachy is so slow it needs to break someones leg in order to make a clean escape. But with Trood it could be its venom mechanic. I also think it would be cool if the devs introduced dinosaur specific mutations. So for Troodons they would have a mutation that prevents them from taking 100% damage from an attack that would otherwise one shot them. So instead of one hit it would always take two.

Have you tried how much stamina is target loosing if one troodon stays latched for almost the whole stamina bar?

I think your very right about the problem, and I think your solution would work. I see some other people suggesting to do it other ways... And all those suggestions retain the 'can or will make you puke in battle"(some even suggesting being able to make you puke multiple times) The idea of switching it to vomit sickness directly seems a very clean simple and effective solution in a lot of ways. I think perhaps a situation where the bite adds sickness directly, and the higher that gets from repeated bites, can cause you to puke either in/for a few moments if you dont cure it with salt seems maybe like a good way. Perhaps still allowing it to make you puke on the spot if youve been bit 4 or more times, for a cera of a similar size to whatever its biting I think taking Cera meat off diet entirely so only its organs provide nutrients, with these changes, are enough that we can justify also reducing its actual speed some, while not hurting its survivability, and further fixing how it and other carnivores engage. I dont see any reason for this tanky corpse bully body buff garbage disposal to be fast or a distance runner I saw someone say also remove organs from it, and that seems too far. I think Cera should just be pushed back heavily into something that can defend itself reliably by body buff, and sickness. Also if it wasnt actually on diet directly, it would greatly reduce the incentive to hunt it. I dont think Cera should be fast at all, neither do I think it should be a distance runner. It should be faster than four legged herbivores, for sure. But there is no need for Cera to fit any of the roles its fitting, and it literally doesnt need to be hunting at all, and should only do so at all in rare circumstantial opportunities (to be clear... its not the end of the world or ruining the game where its at right now, but I dont think its good for the game.... theyre VERY easy to play right now, but can pretty much always be avoided. I think it would be more fun for any hunting that goes on to be against smaller things, fighting for corpses, and that they shouldnt feel comfortable walking casually into the middle of an open field and challenging whole adult raptor packs or multiple adult carnos who are sitting on their fresh kills because they can tank all the hits, kill half the group directly, and have a mountain of food suddenly thatll last them like 40 mins or something cause they can even eat it when its rotten... )

I think the only issue with cera is the bile I think a bile nerf or a rework would be fine the issue that cera is not broken it’s currently fine other then bile I think the other carnivores just need buffs or we need a larger carnivore to intern nerf cera

Very well done. Not long but spot on

someone get this guy on the dev team PUH LEASE. i always love hearing your proposed solutions to the isle's problems.

Deadly night predator, a playable that needs 30min to growi? Venom underperforming?u know how ridiculously strong the venom is?

I always figured just boosting the stam would be a solution but i like this idea better. It give the target players the option of staying in the fight at potentially great cost or running away. That said, i still think the pounce stam drain should be nerfed a bit. Please devs give this a shot!

Pretty great suggestion ^^ Theres already a strat that a few troodons know to prevent people from shift+w'ing away, but it can still be defeated- And troodon stam based venom has always been a great choice. Also, if some people weren't aware, the devs once again shadow nerfed a creature, this time, troodon out of ALL the unbalanced creatures, its venom stage 3 venom used to do 120 dmg per pounce, now it does 100. Thats a solid 20% damage nerf, and you need 3-4 more pounces on bigger things like cera/carno/teno, which is absolutely uncalled for when it was already 15 for cera/carno, and 18 for teno- Awaiting the HT now to see what they give troodon, as they have to give it something quite damn good to warrant a 20% damage nerf- Not even something as cera ever got that big of a nerf.

Which dino should i review next that is problematic ? Carno: 3 Maia: 1 Carnotaurus or Maiasaura ? Pick one of these 2
