Description

The Prime Megalodaunt is a powerful Megalodaunt variant, spawning as the second trial in The Vat or through the Parasol's Blight enchant.

Primes are the strongest variant, with them hitting harder, having a much higher HP pool, and being noticeably faster at attacking compared to its normal counterparts.

Despite all of the above, they behave like regular Megalodaunts. Master its attack pattern and this is basically just a Megalodaunt that can fire a laser beam and has more health.

Attacks

Name/Danger	Description	Media
Slash (★☆☆)	A short range slash using their forearms. It can slash once, twice, four times and also mix in a kick. Heavy posture damage. The only variant that can slash four times in quick succession. Prime's Slash with a much quicker pace and does not leave much time for you to attack back. Do not be greedy for hits or you can get punished easily. 𓆩✧𓆪 Parryable ⛊ Blockable § Dodgeable
Kick (★★★)	The Megalodaunt's leg will flash red before delivering a Kick that can rag-doll and send the player flying. Causes the player to be Dazed if kicked into a wall. This ability is very dangerous as it cannot be blocked and can send you into unwanted situations. This attack visually appears as a bite attack without the red flash if the Megalodaunt is swimming. Creates the longest duration in which the beast doesn't attack, letting you freely hit it more than the other attacks allow. ☣ Unparryable ⛉ Unblockable § Dodgeable ↗ Ragdoll
Thousand Needles (★☆☆)	The Megalodaunt bends over and points its coral tubes towards an opponent, spewing a large and constant spray of coral shards at anyone in front of/around it for a second. There is a shorter ranged AOE version and a single target version. Both function the same. 𓆩✧𓆪 Parryable ⛊ Blockable § Dodgeable
Tacet Hug (★☆☆)	The Prime turns invisible, with a white ring signifying where they are. After a few seconds, it turns visible again, grabs whatever is in front of it, holds it up, and chows down, before throwing it away and ragdolling it. Autogrips ☣ Unparryable ⛊ Blockable § Dodgeable ⛧ Teleport ⤻ Ragdoll
Tacet Drop Kick (★★☆)	The Prime turns invisible. After a few seconds, it will become visible again, performing a dropkick attack. 𓆩✧𓆪 Parryable ⛊ Blockable § Dodgeable
Roar (★☆☆)	Lets out a Roar at nearby targets, initiating combat and inflicting a generous amount of insanity. After this, it usually tends to use Thousand Needles or Kick in quick succession. Blocking negates much of but not all the insanity gain. Increases posture damage against all players affected by the roar, similarly to Ardour Scream. ¤ Debuff ⚠︎ Unparryable ⛊ Blockable § Dodgeable
Cero (★★★)	The Prime Megalodaunt raises its entire body upwards, opening its jaws to begin charging up a dark orb. Once fully charged, It hunches back down, firing a massive laser beam at its target. If the player is low enough, It will AUTO-GRIP them. This is its most dangerous move. Players executed by the Cero move will be completely vaporized and will not drop a loot bag for others to interact with. Can either fire it immediately or delay its use of the laser beam. Watch carefully for what it will try to do. ⚠︎ Unparryable ⛉ Unblockable § Dodgeable
Jump (☆☆☆)	If the target is above it, the Prime Megalodaunt will Jump at the direction of it's opponent to close the distance. Often used after Kick. ☕︎ Harmless ⟡ Movement

Finisher

Name	Description
Curb Stomp	The Megalodaunt ends its opponent's life by delivering a stomp onto their bodies with a gruesome crunch. This happens in less than a second. This attack has an AOE effect which can be parried similar to the Rock Golem's stomp.
