Combat
Let’s see how to battle against the Terror Bird
General
Getting a terror bird in an Agrentavis’ claws will scare it
Strategy
If it can’t get closer to you, it is unable to destroy you. Don’t battle against it on the ground. This creature can chase and pass you easily. Just try to trap it or you can climb a big rock.
Weaponry
Powerful beak with a quick assault. It’s medium destruction.
Dangers
This is an excellent runner, if you don’t have any good equipment, you must keep yourself away from it on the terrain.
Weakness
You can get Terror Bird stuck on the rocks and use a ranged weapon or a pike to assault it, which is the same way as you did to the Raptor.
Taming
Terror Bird doesn’t have good torpor; it drains very fast. Therefore, you need to ensure that you prepare lots of Narcotics when you domesticate. You are recommended to get 30-100 counting on the server settings and level.

Roles
- Transport/Land Scout: The Terror Bird is extremely quick, and it is very good to scout and transport goods for the riders because of its fast speed, it can even reduce the fall damage. (Enhance speed, stamina, weight or health)
- Mountain Jumper: When the bird falls, it always glides, this will help you reach further distance if you perform a leap, as the mountain peak for example. You should be cautious, it probably still has to take the small fall damage. If you glide, you will also decrease its stamina, though it’s at a slow rate.
- War Mount: Terror Bird is a good combat mount that is capable of fulfilling higher damage, and it has a skill to glide, which is the same as a Raptor. (Enhance health, melee damage, stamina/weight)
