Time

Diet

Soft Bodied Prey

Temperament

Relaxed

Wild

Similar in size of Megalodon, but far more calm, Helicoprion reclusively lurk in the open waters of the ARKs ocean environments. While they are imposing with their familiar silhouette, Helicoprion pose no threat unless provoked. That is, unless you happen to be an unfortunate Ammonite, which Helicoprion have a strong desire to chomp down on! With strong jaws and even a stronger tail, Helicoprion can pose a dangerous threat if they've been bothered. The jaws of Helicoprion are used to quickly and efficiently slice up bodies of Cephalopod creatures, and the tail in particular has evolved to be more like a Thresher sharks. This significant change is used to great effect at stunning prey. Some survivors claim more powerful Heli can even knock out foes with a powerful whip of their tail!

Domesticated

The truly remarkable jaw of Helicoprion can be used for much more than just eating Ammonites. Oddly enough, the precise cutting power the tooth whorl provides can be used to separate the various components of equipment. For some older specimens, this process allows survivors to record the crafting requirements for their various equipment. I've only seen the most experienced crafters employ this bizarre utility, but it's an astonishingly useful one for sure!




Behavior

Helicoprion minds its business unless attacked, and when it retaliates, it attacks with a normal bite and a tail swipe, which stuns the attacker if it lands.

Appearance

Color Scheme and Regions

The Helicoprion's range of its natural color scheme is unknown at this time, however its color regions are available. For demonstration, the regions below are colored red over an albino Helicoprion.

This information can be used to alter the Helicoprion's regions by entering cheat SetTargetDinoColor <ColorRegion> <ColorID> in the cheat console. For instance, cheat SetTargetDinoColor 0 6 would color the Helicoprion's "main body" magenta.
