A new Dino Dossier has been revealed, this one is everyone’s favorite poisonous aquatic adaptable arthropod, the Eurypterid!

Ooh black pearls? Precursor mats for the tek tier maybe?

[[KR-X] Tarbtano]

Damn it I wanted a tamable :(

[BrizzTv]

black pearls??? Sci-Fi resource!

[Nikea]

So, it's like the water version of the scorpion?

Also, we're getting a new item?? :D

[dillyman2]

Darn, not tameable :(. Anyways, black pearls? I'll post a question about it in the digest questions.

SEA SCORPION HYPE!

[HeavenGoatyToaty]

Underwater Scorpions. :D

nourapterid!

what ? poisonous ? since when ? ugh the flaws -_- ah well guess will have to deal with it not being accurate to history - The tail, known as the telson, is spiked in most eurypterids (just like in modern scorpions) and in some species it may have been used to inject venom, but so far there is NO certain evidence that any eurypterids were venomous.

since this is kind of there own version of the sea scorpion, dosent have to be 100% accurate, hell most of the dinos arnt, when i heard the sea scorpion may be in, i kind of figured it would be posions, plus, kind of makes them more threatining then them just being giant bugs underwater

[MandyTrekkie]

too spoopy 4 me

[Red_warning]

I don't see how land scorpions are intelligent enough for taming but those living in the sea are not.

[Ashtraska]

Neato! :D

[Euzio]

Looks like a lobster.... Mmmmmmm :p

But its true that its kind of odd that land scorpions can be tamed but these can't. Personally, I think that the scorps should not be tameable either. Rather, we can harvest them for their poison glands which when we can then use to craft out tranq arrows/bullets that have a much more potent effect compared to the normal tranq arrows made from narco berries.
