Guide to Ceratosaurus (Evrima)

Bugged moon, now we truly know why they went exinct

Introduction

Ceratosaurus was introduced in the Evrima update 6.5 and has gained popularity among players. While it may appear to be an apex predator, growing a Ceratosaurus (referred to as Cera) can be challenging due to various factors. In this guide, I will provide valuable information and strategies to increase your chances of survival and success in the game.

Basic Information

Let’s begin with some essential details about Ceratosaurus. As an adult, Cera weighs between 1900-2300 kg, can reach speeds of up to 36 km/h, and deals 225-350 damage per bite.

Keep in mind that in the game, weight corresponds to the amount of health a dinosaur possesses. With this knowledge, let’s move on to the next section.

What to Do When You First Spawn

When spawning in the game, you have several location options: North East, North West, Center, South, and South East. The North East region lacks resources and is generally avoided by players. The same goes for South and South East, where resources are scarce, and your main source of food will likely be deer. Although these areas are safer, they are not ideal for sustained growth.

In my opinion, the Center and North West are the best spawn options. Despite being less safe, these areas have a higher concentration of Ceratosaurus players, both friendly and hostile. By playing cautiously, you can benefit from the presence of fellow Ceratosaurus who may assist you. Before spawning, consider modifying your skin color to blend better with the environment, enhancing your camouflage and increasing your chances of survival. Camouflage can also help you steal food from others successfully.

Now that you have spawned, what’s next? Let’s assume you have spawned in the center. Here’s my recommended strategy:

Steal food from others to achieve a balanced diet.

Look for a pack of friendly Ceratosaurus, but avoid joining a group of adult Ceratosaurus as they might attack you. If successful, stick with the pack to increase your chances of survival.

If you can’t find a pack, head North. This region offers dense forests with fewer players and crocodiles. It’s a relatively safe spot where you can grow undisturbed, aiming for at least 40% growth.

Once you have grown, proceed to the North West. This area usually has fewer players, but be cautious of crocodiles. Find shelter and food while avoiding encounters with crocodiles and raptors.

Congratulations on reaching adulthood! At this stage, you can explore the central region, hunt smaller animals, or venture out on your own or with a group. However, remain vigilant and avoid engaging Stegosaurus alone.

By following these guidelines, you can enhance your gameplay experience and increase your chances of survival and success as a Ceratosaurus in the game. Good luck and enjoy your adventures!

Diet

Ceratosaurus has a versatile diet and can prey on almost all dinosaurs in the game, including other Ceratosaurus. This adaptability makes them excellent scavengers. As mentioned earlier, spawning in the Center and stealing food is a viable strategy. Once you have secured some initial sustenance, you can freely explore the map either alone or with a group.

One of Ceratosaurus’ notable strengths is its exceptional sense of smell. They can detect food from great distances, providing them with a significant advantage when searching for prey or carrion. Make good use of this ability to locate potential food sources and gain an edge over other players.

Note: With the perfect diet, expect to reach adulthood in about two game days, or 2-3 hours.

Cons

While Ceratosaurus holds a special place in my heart as the best dinosaur, there are some drawbacks that make the journey to adulthood challenging and position it as the second biggest threat. First reason is speed. Compared to its greatest rival, Carnotaurus, Ceratosaurus falls behind in terms of speed. Despite its smaller size,

Cera becomes an easy target for a pack of six Carnotaurus. It’s important to be cautious and aware of this vulnerability. Health Points (HP). Surprisingly, Ceratosaurus has fewer HP compared to other dinosaurs. This may seem like a developer oversight (because they promised for Cera to be the fast and dangerous hunter), as Cera possesses a more masculine appearance and should ideally have a higher health pool. It’s a minor setback, but one that players should be mindful of during encounters.

Conclusion

In conclusion, Ceratosaurus is a fascinating dinosaur to play in the game. While it possesses remarkable features and is visually appealing, there are certain challenges that players must navigate to reach adulthood successfully. These challenges include its vulnerability to larger predators and its relatively lower health points compared to other dinosaurs.

However, with the right strategies and careful gameplay, you can overcome these obstacles and thrive as a Ceratosaurus. Utilize your acute sense of smell, take advantage of camouflage, and seek the support of friendly Ceratosaurus packs to increase your chances of survival. Remember to be cautious and avoid engaging in battles that might overwhelm you.

Ultimately, the journey to adulthood as a Ceratosaurus can be an exciting and rewarding experience. Embrace the unique characteristics of this dinosaur, adapt to the game environment, and enjoy the adventures that await you. Good luck, have fun, and may your Ceratosaurus reign supreme in the game!
