Carbonemys attack and armor.
I suggest to increase the Base Attack power of Carbonemys and add natural Armor stat to it, after all it has a huge strong shell. The suggestion to increase its base attack comes because i read somewhere that Carbonemys had jaws strong enough to eat a crocodile.
Also I suggest to increase it's speed since it's a semiaquatic turtles, semiaquatic turtles are faster on land than land tortoises and are also very fast in water ussually. I had Red eared sliders once, and the real carbonemys shell reminds me definatly of such a semiaquatic turtle type which are fast in water and on land. You would be shocked seeing how fast a red eared slider can be if you have never seen one running.

............ Just because it could eat something and have locking jaws doesn't mean it should have very high attack. He can't open his mouth wide open like others can. And it's bite doesn't cover a lot of area. And my guess is you haven't seen 2 turtles that are made boosted and high level take down pets.

I don't say it should have very high attack but it's base attack should be higher than 10.

Dude, naked, the bite take off about 20hp, a blood pack worth of HP.

Uh, I think they already have plenty of natural armor, it just doesn't show up as a stat. I use mine to meat shield spinos while I tranq, they never get below half health....

Ya, high lvl carbo can easily tank a T rex or spino, that s the easiest way to tame them.

Yes i do that too but i thought thats because of their hp i didn't notice any armor. I guess i should try to compare it by attacking it. thanks i will try it out

If you hit them in the meat/fleshy areas they take more damage. Rex's and Spinos can't help but hit the shell with their attacks....
They have something like 80% damage reduction from attacks against their shells already.

For reals. I've seen them beast tank everything from Sarcos to Rexes to Spinos. For a lower-mid tier Dino, they are beefy as all ♥♥♥♥. Throw in "Mate Boost" and you have some seriously hard-to-kill pets.

They have no damage reductions against attacks against their shells, I just tried it out. I tried attacking their shelds from above and from the side, with a pickaxe both times i did full damage.
