Ok so, first you're gonna wanna get Weather resistance 3/3, because velos WR is horrible, and then go through survival like food long and water long, till you get to scavenger 3/3, the reason you're gonna want scavenger as a velo is because velo is so weak and its incredibly hard to kill things. so instead of risking injury killing your prey, just run with scavenger 3/3 and eat random corpses you find all day! then you're gonna wanna try and get egg thief 3/3, to where if you do see someone nesting, you have something to eat, but you gotta go about it carefully, because the eggs mom is probably there, wait till she leaves to go get food or something then grab the egg, dont eat it, and run away with it as fast as possible to a safe place, once you know you're safe, like on a cliff or in a tree, you can start to ea the egg via biting it till it turns to yolk, then hold the use key to eat it as you normally would, you will also want baby snatcher, the reason you want this is kinda the same reason you want egg thief, to S T E A L, so, lets say you have baby snatcher 3/3 and you see a lurdusaurus nesting, but the egg is already hatched into a baby, what do you do? grab the baby and run away to a safe place with it and eat it, of course, when the mom isn't there, if she notices you though, she will probably not leave expecting you to take her baby. you could also get goodparent to increase the effect of your baby snatching abilities, another thing you could do is go down the power tree to get flesh grazer, which basicly if you have flesh grazer as a velo, apatos are an easy fill... not by killing them but, jumping at their neck and biting it where they cant attack you, something that might help you take out bigger dinos such as maybe a juvie megalo would be sharp teeth, the more points you have into sharp teeth, the more damage you do to things that are bigger than you. hope this helped, this is just what i reccomend ^.^

Go for 3/3 weather, and water if possible. Food longevity got a nerf so that's your choice to go for it. 3/3 cleanliness will make you pretty hard to find, even when hiding in obvious areas.

3/3 babysnatcher if you want to cannibalize on smaller velos or devour straying juvis.
Then go for damage increase or sharp teeth. It will help defend you from constant hordes of pteras that will try their luck on you.

I personally wouldn't go for egg thief, as it is a waste of talents if nobody on the server is actually nesting lousily, and therefore a very situational skill to put effort into, baby snatcher generally works better since babies can stray from parents, instead of having to risk a stomp to grab an egg.

This setup has always worked for me, and I've been able to reach as high as 1.7 with this strategy.
So in short: Survival Combat will go a long way, if you play smart.

Yes, id reccomend egg thief on a very filled server.

Velos arent as weak as what people say they are, ive been maining velo for a long time and if played right you can kill things 100x your size with patience along side with it.

3/3 weather + full damage tree and both comfort,resistance to help you stay near them longer is the right ticket

Gadzooks, i know what you're saying, i killed an acro as a velo once ;) even though i did have sharp teeth, the only thing is... if you have no power talents when fighting something as velo you'll probably just die of intimidation before the big carnivore you're fighting even gets to hit you...
