Hey Everyone! We are excited to finally announce the Thalassodromeus TLC, the last of the flyer TLCs! This TLC turns the Thalassodromeus into an airborne menace focused on using new air and glide abilities, that help it more easily travel to far off destinations, and new ground abilities as well as the impact mechanic to take its battles to land. This update also brings new textures, animations, and a smaller model, to round out this pterosaur.

Missile Build

For the airborne brawlers that like to patrol the sky and turn their speed into destruction, there’s the Missile Build. Break out of formation and rapidly close in over your target.

Dive Bomb will increase your flight acceleration, increase damage while diving, and occasionally negate impact damage when colliding with a flying target.

Large Crest will decrease air impact damage, keeping you in the fight longer while dive-bombing multiple targets.

If you miss, ensure you survive any impact or fall that would have otherwise killed you with Featherweight which retains a small amount of health and grants impact immunity for a short period of time.

When the fight has leveled out, use Barrel Roll to deal damage to multiple flyers, and Dodge to avoid their counter measures.

Finally, get in close and use Peck to wear them out until they fall from the sky.

Grounded Build

The Thal can still put up a fight from the ground as well, using specialized passives for hunting down less flight-worthy opponents

Leap reduces stamina jump cost and increases jump height to make ground travel faster and easier, to close-in more rapidly.

Build up armor on the ground with Feathery Hide, to withstand more attacks from defending foes.

Tear allows you to build several stacks of increased damage while grounded which also increases the effectiveness of Bite and other attacks while you continue your assault.

Finally, use your wings with Wing Slap to deal damage in a cone to your front until you finish them off.

These abilities will make the Thal a lethal threat not just in the air, but also when grounded.

Glide Abilities

The Thalassodromeus has several abilities that make it ideal for travel, coasting on the updrafts and gliding forward on the wind.

Preened Feathers will reduce stamina drain while flying, and using Rest Stop when taking a break from flying will quickly recover spent stamina.

Broad Wingspan will further reduce stamina drain when gliding, while also slowing descent and increasing land coverage with each takeoff.

Fly further on less stamina with these abilities to traverse the map while safe from ground predators between stops.

We are looking forward to seeing how players will take to the sky and combine these new abilities. Whether you're a ground predator on the prowl, or gliding high above waiting to dive on your prey, we hope you enjoy these ability updates.

As always, thank you for your continued support and we’ll be listening to your feedback. See you soon!
