Pixark Summer Patch


[h2]New BOSS——Mega Giganotosaurus[/h2]
The Giganotosaurus is one of the creatures standing at the top of the food chain. With its gigantic body size, aggressive temper. and powerful attack, the actual combat power will worth the time you invest in. However, the Giganotosaurus has two major drawbacks that cannot be ignored. First, Giganotosaurus is highly impulsive and irritable, and once provoked, it will attack all creatures around indiscriminately. The other drawback is due to its huge size, which does not allow it to challenge elite creatures/BOSS in most challenges.

Skills:
  • Crunch: While in rage mode during Phase 2/3, its attack will deal an addtional 2%/5% max HP to enemies.
  • Roar: enemies around it will be confused and uncontrollable.
  • Berserk: its attack will increase upon taking damage.


Drops:
  • One fertilized Giganotosaurus egg (100% chance)
  • Tek Storage Box blueprint
  • Sauce Meat blueprint


Challenge:
  • Players will need to summon the “Ancient Gate” and use energy stone to teleport and challenge the Mega Giganotosaurus.
  • Ancient gate recipe can be learned at lv90 and crafted at the Inscription Book
  • Energy stone recipe can be learned at lv90 and crafted at the Alchemy Stove
  • Only one challenge can be started at each Ancient Gate with a cooldown time of 24 hours.


[h3] New Creature[/h3]
Giganotosaurus
The Giganotosaurus once lived in Argentina, South America, during the Cretaceous period. With its huge body size, powerful and agile bite. and as sharp as a steel knife teeth, the actual combat power may be comparable to Tyrannosaurus rex. In Pixark, the Giganotosaurus is one of the creatures standing at the top of the food chain with a super aggressive power that far surpasses the ordinary Tyrannosaurus Rex. The Giganotosaurus is impulsive and irritable, and once enraged, it will attack all creatures around it indiscriminately, even friendly ones. So far, no wild Giganotosaurus has been found in the land of Pixark. All known domesticated Giganotosaurus are hatched from eggs obtained by challenging the Mega Giganotosaurus.


LMB:Regular attack
RMB:Roar(No actual effect)
Passive:Giganotosaurus will enter the "berserk" state when its rage bar reaches 100%. In addition, upon taking a single hit with a damage of 25% of its maximum HP, it will instantly enter the "berserk" state. The "berserk" state will enrage all giganotosaurus within a certain range for 20 seconds, attacking all creatures and players. When the rage bar has not reached 100%, each 1% rage increase will increase the maximum damage by 1%. After entering the "berserk" state, the rage bar returns to zero.


[h3]Spinosaurus[/h3]
Spinosaurus was an aquatic or semi-aquatic dinosaur that lived in the Cretaceous period. With a huge body size but a slender mouth, its actual combat power is far less than a Tyrannosaurus rex. However, it might not be the case in Pixark, and certainly not if it is in water. Spinosaurus can travel effortlessly in water, and is the nemesis of all aquatic creatures.

LMB:Regular attack
RMB:Switch between moving in 2&4 feet.
C button:A roar that can confuse all surrounding creatures in water.
Passive:Enters a “humid” state when in water, increasing its attack by 15%, movement speed by 20%, and takes 20% less damage. The humid state will wear off upon leaving water for 30 seconds.

  • Eggs/weapons/equipments/saddles can no longer be stored in Tek Storage Box.

It is at the bottom of the food chain; however, people who have domesticated Lystrosaurus found out that it learns very quickly and can accumulate experience faster than other creatures. Not only that, it will also affect the surrounding creatures so that they get a exp rate boost.

Trait: After petting it, it will boost the exp gaining rates of other creatures within a certain range. The higher the level of the Lystrosaurus, the faster this rate boost will be. The effect lasts for 10 minutes, and the bonus effect provided by multiple Lystrosaurus cannot be stacked.
