Pronghorn

Pronghorns belong to their own guild and they live on the North America server. Pronghorns are the fastest of the Antelope guild.

## Overview

Pronghorns have the highest mobility stat of the Antelopes, in part due to an arms race between them and American Cheetahs. Pronghorns spent points into intelligence to spot predators, and to form herding behaviors. They have decent stealth, which they use to blend into the tall grass. Also they have an amazing stamina stat, which allows them to out last predators during chases. Besides that the rest of the stats are quite low. They are migratory grazers, moving for better grazing areas. When taking care of young they leave the group to hide alone with their young to decrease the chance of being caught by predators.

## Abilities and Skills

### Horns

Like most Antelopes, Pronghorns have horns, which increase the range by a bit, and increases damage from head attacks. This ability is used most in breeding season by males.

### Cold Resistance

Pronghorns live in the North America server, so they spent points into cold resistance, allowing them to resist the cold as they migrate to better areas for grazing.

## Tier Placement

Overall Pronghorns are the best of all the Antelope builds. They have great speed in a server that lacks major mobility and stealth builds. Because of this they can easily evade predators, and the only build that was made to counter them (American Cheetahs) got banned in that server, so Pronghorns don't have a major threat, closest being Coyotes, Bobcats, and Wolves which lack the speed and stealth needed to catch them. But if they do the Pronghorn lacks the bulk and power needed to defend themselves. Also borders that humans make like barb wires, fences, and roads make the migration part of the game harder as it slows down the pronghorn forces them into a flexibility check. So overall Pronghorns are High A tier.
Piranha

The piranha build is a famous build often hyped as the ultimate killing machine. In reality, most of the build's social behavior is defensive.

## Overview

Size for DPS, this build has high Power. They also have weak scales, which drastically reduces their Defense while they may be skittish and have high Mobility, but low Health.

## Moveset

**Feeding Frenzy (Active, Attack)**- Gains an exponential attack boost when EXP meter is below a certain amount.

**Scary Jaws (Passive, Attack**)- Provides a very high Power boost relative to size.

## Tier List

### General

C-tier. The most overhyped build in the Amazon, they school for protection, not for pack hunting like Otters or Orcas. Many builds in the Amazon actually have good matchups against Piranhas like Arapaimas, Oscars,Crocodiles and Dogtooth Characins The dry season event turn this build into a voracious predator and are even capable of taking control of certain river areas, but once your "teammates" can't find other build to body, they might as well end up teamkilling you.

### Compared to other Fishes/ According to OG Tierzoo

A-tier. Piranhas are proof that you don't need to be big to succeed. They use some of the best teamwork of any fish and can take down even humans. They deal devastating damage because of their ability **[Feeding Frenzy]**. Another one of their dominating factors is their advantageous location. Many mammal players have to cross a river or stream or any body of water to find food/shelter, which is why they are so good at camping for mammal players. Their main weakness; they have no defensive capabilities, so DPS mains could easily take out even whole schools of piranhas. At least, that's what Patrick (AKA OG Tierzoo) thinks.

## Summary

### Pros:

* High Power, especially for its size.
* Decent Mobility.
* Can shoal for protection
* Can activate [Feeding Frenzy] for a free boost in attack.

### Cons:

* Lacking in other stats.
* Many bad matchups.
* [Feeding Frenzy] requires you to continously lose EXP.
* Prone to teamkilling.

Rusty-spotted Cat

The **Rusty-spotted Cat**, or *Prionailurus rubiginosus* is widely considered the smallest member of the Felidae (cat) family.

## Overview

The Rusty-spotted Cat is a typical feline build, however scaled down to the miniature. It's playstyle consists of hunting alone on small forest fauna, such as insects, birds, rodents, lizards, and even frogs. It is nocturnal, and is native to the Indian servers, but has since expanded to other servers such as Nepal and Sri Lanka.

While this is a predator build, it lacks any real defensive abilities to counteract anything above its weight class, rendering it easy pickings for larger wildlife. Its low respawn rates keep this build in the meta, and is a solid beginner build with a low skill floor and ceiling. More experienced players might want to pick a more complex build, however.

## Abilities and Skills

List the unique abilities and skills, and/or list characteristics that heavily improve certain areas.

### Nocturnal

This build is active during the night and sleeps during the day.

### Fur Coat

This build has a fur coat, increasing cold resistance.

### Camouflage - Pattern

This build features a brown, dappled coat, similar to the colours of the surroundings of it's natural habitat, increasing Stealth.

### Righting Reflex

This build features the ability to almost always right itself feet-down when falling.

## Moveset

**Scratch** - User attacks an enemy with their claws, dealing medium damage.

**Bite** - User bites on the opponent with full force. Crushes defenses in the process. High critical hit chance, and may cause bleed or cripple the target.

**Sprint** - User accelerates to a higher speed than normal for a short time.

## Pros & Cons

### Pros:

* Great Mobility
* Decent Intelligence

### Cons:

* Weak Arboreal Mobility
* Low HP and DEF

## Tier Placement

Overall, the Rusty Spotted cat is an average build, with a solid placing in B tier. It has mediocre stats, but it has powerful ATK for its weight class, and dominates the floor of the forest. However, this build lacks any powerful defence or special abilities to grant it a higher placing.

Mantis

Mantis, also known as praying mantis, are a guild of insects so named for their normal posture. The closest relatives of this build are the Termite and Cockroach.

## Tier Placement

Mostly A-tier. These builds are the highest ranked insect build without the [Eusocial] trait. Great Power, Mobility and Stealth as well as effective Intimidation tactics. A great build for bodying many arthropod builds.

## common combat techniques

Mantis mains are known to hide until prey comes near in order to grab them and then atteck. Their stats are maxed to stealth and power in order to ambush-combo zero-to-death the enemy. Grabbing are thir main way to connect hits.
Protozoic Update

Cold-blood is a trait where the temperature of you scales directly with your environment. This prohibits cold-blooded builds from entering the colder climates as they will freeze to death even with all sorts of cold resistance perks. Cold-blooded builds also gain energy this way which means abilities like sails can recharge stamina more quickly. Cold-blooded builds also require less EXP to maintain.
Neil Armstrong

## NOTE

This article will talk specifically about the moon landing.

Neil Armstrong was the first player to ever succesfully land on the lunar server. He did so with fellow partner Buzz Aldrin and Micheal Collins. This was a revolutionary achievement still recongnized by players today. This started a chain of events with other Rover, Satellite and Human players landing on the moon. This was during the cold war, more specifically the space race. Now, if you haven't played as a human in recent times, I bet you're wondering what the space race and cold war are. The cold war was a war between the russians and the americans. The space race was

   when they decided to see who could develop the most during in space. The americans won by having 12 human players to step on the lunar server.
Peafowl

Peafowl are bird builds that play on the Asian and African servers. Known for their beautiful colours.

## Overview

Peafowl seriously specked into aesthetics, their bodies are filled with feathers of many different colors. Males did this to much greater extent than females. Surprisingly, peafowl have the flight ability even though in the zoo server they are seen with their wings clipped. They mainly take EXP from small animals like reptiles and amphibians. Lastly, they travel in groups which means safety in numbers.

## Tier Placement

**General**

As beautiful as these builds may be, they are in C tier. While they can fly despite what memes tell you, their flights are usually short. In addition, they rely on an abundant loot source. Peafowl mains also can communicate with each other through infrasonic sounds. However, that still doesn't protect them from gankers. They are not terrible, but not amazing.

**Compared to Other Birds**

When this build compared to other birds, they are terrible than others. They still have "flight" ability but their flight is weaker than most of the other birds because of their tail feathers. Their tail feathers also have another weakness: they can't see if the predators attack them from behind making them vulnerable. Also, their power stats are quite low for defending themselves. Because of that, they rank lower in D tier.

## Abilities

### Beak

Peafowls are apart of the bird class so they have the move peck which gives them extra pierce type damage but not that much.

### Flight

Due to popular belief they are actually capable of flight but that out of the way flight is an ability that renders the user capable of getting of land and take to the sky.

## Weakness

Aesthetics require additional exp to maintain. In addition, they reduce effectiveness of the flight ability.

### The Male Players

Since the female Peafowl player base are interested in male Peafowls who have interesting feathers which can make it easy for other predators to kill them

## Outside Hall of Fame

The peafowl is the national bird of the Indian server.
Naked Mole-Rat

Naked Mole-Rats are known for being, well, having not a lot of fur to put it one way or another. They are also known for their ability, eusocial and is the only mammal to unlock this ability.

## Tier Placement

### How Its Abilities in General Help it.

Naked Mole-Rats have specked in to the Eusocial ability and is the only mammal to ever unlock this ability. This means that since they're in a larger weight class than ants and bees, they didn't have as much evolution points. They have underdeveloped lungs but can still survive 18 minutes with 0 oxygen thanks to the rationing oxygen ability. Naked Mole Rats also experience any pain which means that it can't detect when the air is acidic for example. Naked Mole Rats have one pretty good thing going for them, their mediocre intelligence with their above average lifepsan, but still having one good perk isn't what would be considered to tier.

### How Naked Mole-Rats do with Eusociality

As previously mentioned, the Naked Mole-Rat is unique in that it's the only mammal to ever unlock the Eusocial ability. However, the Naked Mole-Rat uses it quite poorly and doesn't really benefit much from implementing RTS tactics into its gameplay. It is true that Naked Mole-Rats have a queen, workers, and drones, just like eusocial Insects. But the only thing that makes Eusociality such an unbelievably strong strategy is that it enables a group of individuals to achieve things that would be impossible alone, like taking down a huge boss, traversing a huge barrier, or surviving a catastrophe. Naked Mole-Rats don't do these things. While other Eusocial creatures live on almost every single terrestrial server, Naked Mole-Rats are confined to just a small area in Africa. They do have the coveted Cancer Resistance ability, but spending Points to unlock an extremely rare ability that benefits the individual makes no sense when playing as a Eusocial colony. A Eusocial player's abilities should serve the colony, not the colony's units. The one impressive thing they do achieve is creating a large base. But there are other rodents who do this better. This results in only D tier.

## Abilities

For those that aren't bothered to read the first sentence and tier placement,

### Eusocial

Naked Mole-Rats have queens, workers and soldiers.

### Oxygen Rationer

Naked Mole-Rats can ration oxygen so that they can survive with very little oxygen

## Weakness

They use the Eusocial ability poorly as their abilities serve the individual not the colony. They also don't feel pain, "no pain? No gain." is what we say because naked mole-rats can't detect when the air acidic or when disaster has struck or if they have broken a bone.
Pike

The pike build is a freshwater build found in the North American and European servers. These builds are known to data miners as Esox. This build is not to be confused with the weapon used by Human mains which also has the same name. These builds are highly aggressive, and will often eat anything in its home server.

## Tier Placement

A tier. These builds have good Power and are known for their strategy of luring smaller fish builds into shallow water where they are usually safe. They also have good camouflage and even can hurt larger builds.
Mawsonia

Mawsonia was a banned Coelacanth build playable from the Kem Kem Formation.It was also playable in the South American server.Recent datamining, however, determined that the Kem-Kem build was actually an Axelrodicthys build.

## Mawsonia

In awe at the size of this lad, absolute unit

## Overview

This Coelacanth build was the size of a Great White Shark ,thus the great Health. It also specced into decent Armor, giving it great Defense. This build did not have the [Intracranial Joint] of playable Coelacanth builds, it had great Power in virtue of it being a heavyweight bottom-feeder. All other stats are mediocre.

## Moveset

**Gulp (Active, Attack)**- A basic attack with the mouth that destroys any build below your weight class.

**Adaptive Gills (Passive, Misc.)**- Allows switching between freshwater and saltwater servers without HP-sapping debuffs.

**Plate Armor (Passive, Defense)**- Greatly increases Defense.

## Tier Placement

B-tier. It specced into a viable niche, being a bottom feeder, able to grief many of the smaller Fish builds in the server. At top tier, it had only a few bad matchups, these builds being Spinosaurus, Crocodiles and Sharks.

Opah

The opah is a marine Fish from the Lampriformes guild, which is known for defying every standard of playstyle based on their hitbox shape, by speccing into janky playstyles with unorthodox hitbox shapes. Relatively little is actually known about their playstyle, as it is a deep server build. It is the only Fish build able to pull off actual warm-bloodedness. This build has a round, flat hitbox.

## Overview

While mostly solitary, this build can school with Billfish and Tuna for protection from other griefers. It has surprisingly high Mobility for a laterally flattened build. Most high-Mobility builds often have hitboxes shaped like torpedoes and footballs. While it is a predatory build, and has a protrusible mouth, the low size and complete lack of teeth gives it less Power. Lastly, weighing at 250 kg, it has a moderate Health stat.

## Moveset

**Heat Exchange Circulatory System (Passive, Utility)**- Faster stamina regen & higher resistance to extreme temperatures, but hunger bar drains faster.

## Tier Placement

B-tier. Being warm blooded gives you several advantages like being more active and being more resistant to temperature changes. It is also fairly bulky. However, their mouths can limit the size of the loot it can swallow, and there are still some predators for it to contend.

Sivatherium

Sivatherium (Siva's Beast) was an banned build of giraffids that were available to play from the African to the Indian servers. *Sivatherium giganteum* may have been the largest build capable of using the Ruminant ability. The build was playable from the Late Pliocene up to the end of The Ice Age patch. While it might have been available untill only some 8,000 years ago, there was no conclusive datamining evidence to support this yet.

## Overview

The Sivatherium was not among the fastest builds due to its robust build, thus only having mediocre Mobility. However, it had one of the highest Health stats of any ruminant build to ever exist. Its ossicones also provided a good Power stat. Giraffid builds are known to have thick skin that provides them with a considerable amount of Defense. It was possible that this build possessed them too. The other stats were roughly the same as most giraffids, except for Stealth, which was reduced to the large ossicones.

## Moveset

**Prehensile Tongue (Passive, Utility)**- Allows access to grooming and harder to reach loot in the treetops.

**Ossicone Bash (Active, Attack)**- An attack with the skin-covered bony horns (ossicones) that deals heavy damage and has a chance to inflict the [Slow] debuff.

## Tier Placement

B-tier. Sure, it may not have the height advantages conferred by playable Giraffe builds, it neverethless has the stats to deal with its main predators like the playable Lions or Spotted Hyenas it was playable with. Unlike the aforementioned modern Giraffe, it does not need an awkward position in order to drink, lessening the threat from Crocodiles.

Marsupial Lion

The marsupial lion is a banned marsupial build minmaxed for Power. Despite the name, it is not related to the placental Lion build. They were introduced in the Late Neogene Expansion (Patch 3.2.2) and were banned in the Quaternary Expansion (Patch 3.3.1).

## Tier Placement

S-tier. Arguably the best Marsupial build to have ever live, it specced into sharp claws and powerful gripping hands with sharp claws. It also has decent Stealth and could climb trees Its worst matchup are Quinkanas.

Rhea

The **Rhea** is the premier ratite build of the South American server and they were introduced into the European server, distant related to the Ostrich and the Emu. In addition to South America, this build had a growing playbase in the German server. This is actually the third smallest ratite build, beaten by the Kiwi and the Tinamou.

## Overview

Rheas are the main runner build of South America. They invest points into speed and some bulk. Their lowest stat (stealth) is not a major issue as it lives in the tall grasslands. Their height allows them to spot predators more easily.
Rheas are omnivores taking advantage of the wide, but rich exp sources in South America.

## Abilites and Skills

### Long Neck

This increases the perception and grab range of this build, allowing it to spot predators and reach hard to reach loot.

### Long Legs

With long legs, rheas have a great increase in mobility, perception and range.

### Scatter

These players gather in groups and if danger is spotted, they will scatter greatly increasing the chances of escaping.

## Tier Placement

This build has the same problems found in the Ostrich build, but what is lifting it up the tier list is its team play. The threats in the server is quite low only Cougars, Bush dogs, and sometimes Jaguars, but their atleast still a threat that keeps these birds on their toes. These builds are getting a B-tier.
Skunk

The Skunk is a build closely related to Mustelids and is the most famous of builds that use odors and sprays, this in combination makes one of the worst and stinkiest odors in the game, **Skunk Spray.** The Skunk has similar stats to a Cat.

## Species

### Relatives

Weasels, Badgers, Wolverines and other Mustelids

## Classification

### Species

Varies

The Skunk is a build that isn't like a lot of mammals, most mammals will not spec into smelly substances at all but Skunks are unique in the fact that out of all mammals they spent the most of their evolution points lowering their stealth for a AOE morale debuff that takes up a long range, this AOE move will also greatly impact the targets stealth and any social abilities that the target has as it is easier to get detected by having a horrible odor. It’s spray really helps cover up for its lack of HP.

## Abilities & Skills

### Skunk Spray

The most obvious of the Skunk ability is the Skunk Spray, known for smelling like a rotten egg is a chemical substance that usually stays with the target for 3 weeks and isn't removable by non human players. This ranged attack can temporarily blind players. Skunks usually use this move if their intimidating tail doesn’t work.

### Warning Coloration

An ability not unique to skunks but can deter players as a warning to stay away from it. Also a reduction to stealth.

### Handstand

An ability used by Spotted Skunks to intimidate players with low Resolve.

## Teir Placement

The Skunk is a underrated build that barely has any bad matchups, with a combination of stats that can even deter Cougars it is a S Tier build, even having somewhat of a good matchup against the God Tier human players. The only builds that can pose a threat to Skunks are Birds of Prey.

## Hall Of Fame

1. Pepé Le Pew
2. Bluebelle (Bambi)
Squalicorax

Squalicorax, also known as a Crow Shark, is a cosmopolitan,lamnid Shark build that was banned along with the Dinosaurs in the Cretacous-Paleogene Balance Patch.

## Tier Placement

B-tier. At first glance, it seems like this build is basically using the regular Shark template, with slightly higher Health, Mobility and significantly higher Power. That is, untill you realize that this build was specifically designed to live off defeated players. Since it still struggles against builds like Tylosaurus, The Developers had pretty much just turned a Shark main into a Vulture build.

Quillfish

We don't know much about Quillfish.

## Overview and Tier Placement

Quillfish are fishes that have an elongated body and live in the North Pacific. Human data miners think that quill fish are nocturnal and are attracted to light, while they don't know what quillfish players do during the day. Some humans think that they may burrow themselves in the sand. Quillfish feed on probably feed on arthropods. This results in probably B tier because of the previosuly mentioned stuff, and low base stats except for stealth.
Prairie Dog

Prairie Dogs are builds that are known for being social and basically a Lemming but better. They are really versitile as they can play on pretty warm servers as well as pretty cold ones.

## Overview

Prairie Dogs the rodents that does Social Play the right way. Like Lemmings, they create elaborate tunnel systems, but unlike Lemmings, they do it in the ground, which is permanent, instead of the snow, which is transitory. They aren't Eusocial, each Prairie Dog is an individual player with free control, but they do all work together to protect each other by keeping watch and using Team Chat to warn each other when a Carnivore player is nearby. They have no other defensive abilities, but somehow this strategy makes the matchup nearly impossible for builds like the Coyote and Hawk to actually catch them. It doesn't do the greatest job against (the previously mentioned) Stealth, though, so Owls and Snakes can still be problematic for them. This strategy only results in B tier.

## Abilities

### Digging abilities

Prairie Dogs use tunnels for defense. They use it as a place for low-level players to keep safe, a place to keep themselves safe.

### Eye-sight

They have advanced perception abilities for sight but doesn't work against stealth.

### Super Fang

This allows them to chew through structures and shape their environment

### Incisor Regen

This allows them to regenrate their tooth but if their tooth grows to long it will deal damage to themselves so they have to use it regularly which is a bad thing for stealth purposes.
Pachycephalosaurus

Pachycephalosaurus ("thick-headed lizard') was a banned Dinosaur build playable in North America. It was a biped known for their thick domelike skull, which were also found in Mongolian builds. Abundant bony knobs further added to its unusual appearance.

## Overview

The Pachycephalosaurus had the highest Health stat out of any bone-domed Dinosaur build ever in the game. Its bipedal stance gave it great Mobility. While it couldn't headbutt, it's flank-butting damage was great and it has decent Power. Its Intelligence was below average, and its other stats were typical for a Dinosaur.

## Moveset

**Flank Rush (Active, Attack)**-A powerful attack with the head that knocks away a single predator.

## Tier Placement

This build was unusual for a Ornithischian, as unlike most of them, it had an omnivorous diet. It could also knock off a predator and have the capability to outrun them. However, when caught by several predators, they practically had no chance against most of them, and they were only Upper C-tier at best.

Nurse Shark

Nurse Sharks are a type of shark that decided to go for the forager and the predator playstyle. They are mostly nocturnal which means builds that like to be active at night aren't safe well at least molluscs, crustaceans, and smaller fish in Coral  Reef Biomes.

## Nurse Shark

hello i see you are reading the caption for the picture in the infobox which is nice thumbs up

## Species

### Relatives

Whale Shark, Zebra Shark, Wobbegong Shark

## Tier Placement

As previously mentioned, the Nurse Shark is a shark build with low Mobility, a sedentary playstyle, and a really weak bite. Instead of abusing the powerful kit available for Shark classes, Nurse Sharks rummage around the ocean floor looking for easy XP. However, they do have the strongest suction force of any Fish. And since they don't have many terrible matchups, they're definitely no F tier so they get put in highD tier.

this is weird nurse sharks don't use overheat bees do.
Plateosaurus

Plateosaurus, one of the most famous builds during the Triassic Period, marking the beginning of the giant dinosaur that would soon dominate almost every land server.

## Overview

This build had one of the highest health stat for all Triassic land builds allowing this build to shrug off hits that would one shot it's cousins. It also gave this build a high intimidation buff, scaring off would be attackers. This build had a great attack stat due to claws and its massive weight. This build had good speed stat, but had really no need to use it due to its bulk, unless it was in the juvenile stage.
This build had a primarily herbivore diet eating leaves which at the time had no competition. However these builds would eat meat if that chance arrive.

## Abilities and Skills

### Claws

This build had specked into having long claws, this increased the power stat and increases the chance of bleed.

### Hands

This build's hands were structured for grabbing objects, this allowed it to hold it's weight onto trees as it reached for hard to reach leaves, and allowed it to grab low lying vegitation easily.

### Long Neck

Like others in its group, Plateosaurus had a long neck. This allowed it to reach leaves where other herbivores could not reach. It also made its head harder to hit.

### Biped

This build walked on two legs This gave this build more range to grab leaves, and allowed its hands to be used for better grabbing and to be a better weapon.

## Weaknesses

### Head and Neck

Due to the increase of the neck's hitbox and small head, this made it that attacks that hit that area would have a high chance of causing a critical hit. But due to the large size and claws, this weakness isn't a major concern.

## Tier Placement

It was one of the largest builds for its time. With massive bulk and great attack, this build could take on any other build at it's time. It had little to no competition for resources. Plateosaurus is an easy S tier. No wonder that later this build turned into one of the best builds in the game the sauropods.
Otter

## Overview

The otter is a river build that is located in worldwide except in Antarctica. Otters also use team strategies to grief builds bellow and above their weight class, this allows the otter to dominate any server that they are in.

## Abilities

### High intelligence

The otter build has a high intelligence stat

### Great team work

Otters have a high power stat by using team strategies to grief other builds some being in a higher weight class.

### Tool use

Thanks to its tool use ability it can use rocks to crack up some of the hardest defenses in the games like sea urchins, and Scallops
Mourasuchus

Mourasuchus was a banned Caiman build from the Miocene. It was playable along with Gryposuchus and Purussaurus in the South American server.

## Overview

This build has some of the highest Health stats of all Crocodilian mains.It has lost almost all of its Power for an upgrade of the [Gulp] move that doubles as a filter-feeding move.It also specced into typical osteoderms like other Crocodillian mains.

## Skillset

**Filtering Big Gulp (Active, Attack)**-An upgraded version of Gulp that doubles as a Filter move.

**Osteoderms (Passive, Defense)**-Creates nearly indestructible hitboxes.

**Rudder Tail (Passive, Mobility)**-1.5× higher aquatic Mobility.

## Tier Placement

Its high Health stat gives it nigh-invulnerability to almost every other build except (perhaps) Purussaurus. It only manages to cap out at the lower edges of A-tier since this build lost most offensive options available to Crocodillian builds.

Player Made Builds

Pretty Simple. Player Made Builds.

**NOTE: This is not Including Robot Builds. this is exclusively including Builds made using the Build Designer, which requires a stupid amount of evolution points. do not edit the Page, simply put your builds in the comments, and keep in mind the STAT Total Cap for PMBs is 400, and even then, 400 BST PMBs require a STUPID Amount of Evolution Points to make (like, 22,000 without abilities I think). I would prefer if you used the following format:**

[Name]
[Species Name]

Defense
Mobility

Stealth

PASSIVE STATS

Ability Number Cap is 7, even so, anything above 3 costs a stupid amount of evolution points, like, 7,000 for 4 abilities, I think...
Marine Angelfish

Marine Angelfish (Pomacanthidae), are a build referred by dataminers as Pomacanthidae. This build, however, is unrelated to the freshwater angelfish build (Pterophyllum scalare) playable in South America. These builds are playable in reef servers and specc into a laterally compressed hitbox.

## Species

### Location

Atlantic Ocean, Pacific Ocean, Indian Ocean

## Overview

This build specced into a unique design, giving it great Mobility through maneuverability. It does not have much Health, being mostly 2 pounds at best. As it usually bodies builds way below its weight class, it has little Power. Surprisingly, this color sceme actually gives it good Stealth. It is also surprisingly Intelligent.

## Moveset

**Dark Stripes (Passive, Stealth)**- Chance to inflict the [Confusion] debuff.

## Tier Placement

D-tier. While they are able to hide in coral reefs, there are several griefers that can bypass this limitation, and their [Dark Stripes] ability doesn't always work. Held back from F-tier due to having decent Mobility.

Straight-Tusked Elephant

## Straight Tusked Elephant (Palaeoloxodon)

The Straight-Tusked Elephant (Palaeoloxodon antiquus) was an Elephant build available during the Middle-Late Pleistocene. Minus stealth and mobility these former elephant players have extremely high stats. They had a diet with plants and coexisted with Humans until going extinct in the late Pleistocene.

## Abilities

### Long tusks

Compared to modern day elephants the straight tusked elephant had extremely long tusks that could be used as a Spacing weapon and as an intimidation bonus, combine this with large size other builds have a tough time taking this build down if they aren't scared

### Tool use

With similar intelligence to elephants of today, the straight tusked elephants used tools with their trunks to pick up items and use them to complete tasks or defend themselves

### Herding

Similar to elephants of today the straight tusked elephants lived in herds of 5 to 15 with close bonds and friendships with everyone in there herd

## Tier placement

Until their extinction in the late Pleistocene the straight tusked elephant could have very well been the best elephant build in the game with max power and HP, incredibly high intelligence, and abilities that greatly benefit the animal these elephants get to the top of S tier.
Oarfish

Oarfish, also known as king of herrings or sea serpents, is a filter-feeding bony fish build mostly known from stranded players. These builds can weigh up to 272 kg.

## Abilities

### Detachable Tail

This ability is shared with many lizards & is its only way of protecting itself.

### Earthquake Detect

This rumor started in the Japanese Playerbase.

### Teeth

It instead invested those Evolution Points into Gill Rakers to make it able to filter plankton.

## Niche

Its niche is as a deep-water filter feeder. It is outclassed by Whales in this regard.

## Tier Placement

At first, it's size may lead you to believe that it is at least A Tier. However, a closer look at the build will lead you to believe otherwise.

First of all, like other members of its order, the oarfish has a small yet highly protrusible oblique mouth with no visible teeth. The body is scaleless, and the skin is covered with easily abraded, silvery ganoine. In the streamer fish (*Agrostichthys parkeri*), the skin is clad with hard tubercles. This makes it deceptively frail.

In addition, the Oarfish has low muscle mass as its players thought it didn't need it as the water is too calm to give it trouble. Unfortunately, this severely reduced its stats, so they had to rely on the gimmicky Detachable Tail to escape predators.

Metabolism Abilities

One of the basic factors for Life

## Overview

**Metabolism** are very vital biochemical processes that occur in all living builds. These abilities are interchangeable with traits. Digestion and Cellular Respiration are the catabolic abilities - catabolic abilities are abilities that are responsible for breaking down of substances. Photosynthesis and Chemosynthesis are the anabolic abilities - abilities that carry out synthesis of essential molecules.

## Catabolic Abilities

### Cellular Respiration

Cellular Respiration happens in almost every living builds in the game and is extremely vital for them. This is an ability that cannot be disabled or switched in the game.

Cellular Respiration helps to convert chemical energy from oxygen molecules or nutrients into adenosine triphosphate - basic energy source, and then release waste products. Sugar, amino acids and fatty acids are included in this process. There are only a handful of builds that can survive without this especially in the Abyssal servers where there are barely any oxygen that reaches the depth of the environment.

### Digestion

Digestion is a very common biochemical ability that allows large chunks of insoluble food substances to be absorbed into the body by emulsification and decomposition of complex molecular structures. Some builds may have this ability but with no stomach like the Platypus and some fishes. There are different ways that animals digest their foods but this digestion process can be hindered by the structure of a certain animal like the Sloth which is able to die on a full stomach.

## Anabolic Abilities

### Photosynthesis

Photosynthesis is the ability to produce food with carbon dioxide and water through the presence of light. It is an effective dietary tactic that allows the plants to be an almost omnipresent beings in the game. There are billions of plants in the meta. Plankton and Algae are also known to have this ability to survive but their oxygen output are vastly behind that of Trees and other green leaf plants. The plant convert carbon dioxide into oxygen which overall helps the ecosystems positively. Humans are sometimes quite notorious for their act of deforestation and pollution. Both activities harms the plant production rate of food and oxygen.

### Chemosynthesis

Chemosynthesis is the rarer option that appears only in a few type of builds. An abyssal build with this ability can AFK their entire playthrough as long as they can withstand the scalding hot temperature and have a good defense. The most notable user of this ability is the Tube Worm. Some bacteria and archae also possesses this ability too. The symbiotic bacteria helps the Tube Worm convert elemental sulfur, hydrogen sulfide, molecular hydrogen, ammonia, manganese, or iron spewed from the geothermal vents as an energy source for themselves and for the worms.
