Its base Melee Damage sits at 100%, giving it respectable melee power. Health-wise, the Grand Tortugar sits at 1,050 base, making it solidly tanky. With 260 base Stamina, the Grand Tortugar has moderate endurance. Weight capacity starts at 2250, giving it excellent carrying capacity.
To tame the Grand Tortugar, you need to knock it unconscious using torpor weapons, then feed it while it's down. Feed it Giant Bee Honey for the fastest tame and highest effectiveness bonus.
Once tamed, the Grand Tortugar pulls double duty as both a capable resource harvester and pack animal. Breeding produces fertilized eggs that hatch within a 54°C–60°C temperature window. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.64 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
