Body Buff |
When the Ceratosaurus is within 30 meters of a dinosaur's body, it gains automatic damage reduction. As a general guideline, a fully grown Ceratosaurus usually determines its body buff—none, 25%, or 50%—using the following criteria:
Is there a body within 30 meters? If no, no action is taken. If yes, proceed.
Is the body 130kg or heavier? If no, no action is taken. If yes, proceed.
Is the body 100% grown?
If no, the player receives a 25% buff, and chuffing activates when another player actor is within 5 meters of the corpse.
If yes, the player receives a 50% buff, and chuffing activates when another player actor is within 5 meters of the corpse.
While factors like your growth compared to the body's growth influence this, the buff generally ends up as none, 25%, or 50%, the actual check in step 3 depends on whether the body's growth equals or exceeds your own.
Keep in mind, you won't chuff around teammate, chuffing can be disrupted by crouching or resting, along with the buff.
As of 0.17.54 Cerato now gives 50% less bacteria to other players. Smaller dinosaurs will still puke if bitten once.
