Personal Opinions on the Roll Rat

[Bulborb87]

again im curious what peoples opinions are on various creatures on Aberration and for this one i want to know what are your opinions on the Roll Rat because opinions can change for some and ik this because my opinion on it has changed after using it

[Tere-Insanity Gaming]

I love all the changes to ab dinos plus the new ones. Some are scarey and wasnt liking the roll rat really when i saw it but after using it , I agree I enjoy having it now. I so wish we could burrow with it:P

its good for farming wood, if you pump a lot of carry weight in it. It says it can carry up to 6 people, (we've only tried 2) its fast to get around, if you pump in stamina. Its smaller than a stego, but wont fit through regular gates. Not sure what opinion you're looking for though. I think their carry weight could be buffed, since its a farm creature, but, close to the same as the others i suppose.

true plus i didnt know that this thing actually reduces the weight of wood and fungal wood in its inventory by 20% so its kind of like the beaver of the map, plus the ability to take no fall damage when rolling and efectively turning the map into a giant pinball table is fun

so far i only found it useful to gather wood. for other purposes other dinos serve a better use imo.

true because my only 2 negatives i have about the roll rat are these: its saddle can break and its poor turning radius

I wish the turn radius was a bit better. Feel like im driving a semi and not liking how animals attack from behind and i can't hit it back.

granted creatures with poor turning is nothing new because this has been a weakness to a lot of creatures since the game was in early acess on day 1 like as of now being 3 years ago

Played since release myself. Was disappointed that they haven't kinda worked on that a bit more. Nearly lost my 150 roll rat to ravagers cause i was stuck on a wall and couldn't roll out. Wasn't a happy lady.

Roll Rats can be buffed up to insane tank and bite if you do a bit of breeding of 150 perfect. Similar to a Super-rex, right down to the garbage turn radius.

true since not many of actual new creatures of aberration can breed and those options are: light pets, roll rats and ravagers

Every dinos gotta have a weak point or its straight up unbalanced, and since Roll rats can be made super tanky with 1000% bites with a bit of breeding, if it had a swift turn, it'd be the best tame in the game.

true because i do wish it could turn on a dime like for a good example being the Woolly Mammoth
