Mutated Kentros vs Dragon

[Senpaija]

Do you think it's possible?

My kentros are currently at 78 base hp points, which I can get up to around 45,000 hp.
They are herbivores, so they got the advantage of veggie cakes... but do you think they could do it? Combined with yuty, and a daedon if I can get someone to help me?

(Multiplayer server with s+ mutator available)

hmm not sure about that one.

do bosses even take reflected damage from the kentro?

I don't actually know yet, I'm gonna be testing them on gamma brood, but would more hp also result in more healing from the cakes? Normally I wouldn't focus on health, but kentros are literally useless in anything else...

It is to be expected that about 50% of the reflective damage will be negated by yuty roar and mating boost (dragweight + enemy damage output = reflective damage), but the actual value of damage the kentros can put out depends on the specific boss fight, idk if the dragons health and melee changes every time you fight it or if it is fixed unlike the broodmother?

i think around 21k hp is most effective for cake healing

All bosses have set HP that is changed by tier of fight and server difficulty settings. It does not change randomly unless you use mods.

Also problem with kentros is that they dont have saddles for armor. Firebreath goes through any armor but boss does melee damage also and that is mitigated by saddle armor.

No saddle is a problem yes, thats why I would rely heavily on health regeneration

Why Kentros? wouldn't there be better things such as theri's or rex's?

I'm breeding those too, experiementing with other dinos is fun though. Maybe if other creatures were given a fair chance, we would already know if they are a valid option. I just want to find out, because I like kentros.

If you give it a try, please report back how it worked out with your kentros ;)
I´m doing all the boss fights now with Shadowmanes, i feel a little bit like since they where introduced everything else became kinda obsolete, especially the Rex. The fact alone that you get an 125 armor saddle FOR FREE with it makes it op.

Btw, if you´re using S+ try out the Propagator, way more convenient than the Mutator ;)

Not all s+ structures are enabled on the server, but I'll see if there's something called propagator.

If I could I would just use shadowmane because they are much smaller, but it's a story map progression server and genesis 2 is last lol...

I will definitely try out the kentros, I just gotta breed a few more and get them leveled.
