Tips for starters, unless you are playing hard mode, I highly suggest using a male build for deers or lions, the def and power buffs are insane.
Or a moose build
Imagine wanting to play lion in a almost completely passive way go for the female lion build the main quest for them has much more even if it a bit harder than male main quest
I'm pretty sure that the male lion quest is a lot more boring than the female lion quest

I’ve considered doing a tank build on my next playthrough, and horns were always something that I wanted to try. Thanks for the strategy tips. What would be a good race to go with? Maybe a rhinoceros? With their high constitution, thick skin trait and knockback effect on their horn attack, I feel like it would be a pretty ideal build. Not to mention the herbavore trait means that not only do I get basically free XP from all the plants I’ll be eating, but also that combat is solely for defense. I’m off to start my new playthrough! Wish me luck guys!
Rhino is definitely up there in the meta. Everyone has their weakness. But if you build around your predators you should be fine.
@@Dreygen5 Anything beats another boring human playthrough. They’re a bit difficult starting out, but once you put enough evolution points into the “Invention” skill, you just steamroll everything. Boooooring. They need to nerf humans in the next update.

Not all animals with high intelligence (like raccoons) are top tier, due to their limited lifespans holding them back.

true, octopi would be our top contenders if they lived longer than a year. hope the devs fix that honestly.

Can you talk about tail weapons? Why were they so prevalent in the past, but so rare now? What would happen if a large build specced into a tail weapon on a server like Africa? How would that effect the meta?
I'm new to the game, but as far as I have heard, tail build was never popular to begin with. Disclaimer, they are not bad. But I don't think there weren't all that many more tail players even during old expansions.
@@otdatheu4038 What do you mean? Half of the Thyreophora faction specked into them and were pretty dam succesfull, almost top tier; as well as some builds from the sauropoda faction, like diplodocids, who used tail wip as a spacing attack... I think they were pretty dam broken, even if size was their best defense. Trust me, I was an allosaurid main back in the Jurassic expansion, and I know how tough it was to defeat stegosaurids and diplodocids.
@@iagonax2158 Sauropods, thereophores and some giant armadillos are the only groups of animals that have specialised in tail attacks. That’s not a lot.
@@Finnboy-ml5jv Maby, but hear me out. Those dinosaurs spent millions of years with those tail weapons and where fine, mamals with horns are a lot recent. And while the likes of triceratops were arround in the cretaceous, ankylosaurids were still kickin. Maby in future expansions tail weapons become more popular. Personaly, I prefere it without tail weapons, they were quite anoying back in the day, and horn users are pretty easy kills once you get the hang of it (sorry for extending to much if it's anoying to read btw)
@@iagonax2158 There is one thing you don't seem to get is that tail weapons are a pretty huge toll on a tetrapods mobility. Ankylosaurs and glyptodonts are heavy armoured animals, who relied on standing their ground which often left them vulnerable. This tactic performs awfully against coordinated attacks which unlike in the mesozoic are very videspread nowadays. And also humans exist, and tail oriented buids stand no chance against them. You are overrating this strategy. Stegos have went extinct pretty quickly, ankylos did not face pack predotors(mostly a pair of rexes guarantee anky's death) and armadillos got completely countered by humans.

I had a horned equine build that did amazingly well for a while, but the build's main components were removed and everyone playing it was IP banned.
Yea that's sad, it even had a lot of skins iirc!
Most data miners don't believe this build ever existed!
The elk and bovines are similar but it's just not the same!
I had a horned leporid build on the NA server a while back but also got IP banned. You can still see trophies of the build though.
Oh, I think I heard something about the narwhals complaining that faction had stolen their idea. Guess the devs took the narwhals’ side.
God that was the smoothest transition ever
I've been binging your content off and on lately and I've gotta say, it's probably the only educational channel I watch. I don't typically share channels with others, but your content is just that good at increasing our intelligence stat.
I'd love to see a series where TierZoo designs his own build (kind of like creative mode) for different servers.
You need to buy the mythological monsters dlc for that.
There's an old game called "spore" that sought to compete in Outside's genre of evolutionary development games. The graphics aren't as good as Outside nd traits aren't as fleshed out, but you can get more creative with builds.

Yes, this all the way. When I was a kid we had one of those taxidermy jackalope heads on the wall, and it was so well done you'd have sworn this was a real animal. In theory it almost makes sense too. Jackalope, Ligers, Pizzles, Wholphins are just a few I'd like to see tierzoo explore.
I think he's already done a video like that
@@thatguyfrommaine4400 ligers? The lion-tiger hybrid? Those exist exclusively (or almost) in captivity they're hybrids of Tigers and Lions but being hybrids they can't reproduce.

He talked abot that in the past. Is the "cryptid tier list" video and they're so rare due to being DLC.

One downside to speccing into horns or antlers is that they attract the interest of human players who want to collect them as loot. Some factions are already choosing to spec into smaller tusks or are opting out of tusks all together. It will be interesting to see if any of the other players groups attempt to downsize or drop horns and antlers.
Because humans are stupid. You can see, the one rhino with cutted horn is defenseless against hippo.
@@Paka1918 technically not their problem lol
I was surprised you didn't also discuss tusk users in this video. Longer tusks arguably share many similarities in utility as horns and antlers, with the added benefit of giving a boost to digging and xp collection for some builds.
Probably because tusks are part of the teeth build, so he'd have to go over different types of those? ngl, I'd watch one based on all the different types of teeth builds
Tusks, fangs, and teeth in general require their own video.
Also tusks are a tool for feeding quests that can double as weapons in pvp, while both horns an antlers are weapons that sometimes found other uses (like antlers being a part of the reproduction questline of the cervid faction).
tusks are overpowered
@@yo4156 Nah, tusks aren't OP. They severely limit movement and can damage the user.
Your videos always make my day. Congrats on 3 million subscribers!
I gotta say, the production quality in your videos the last couple of months has been top notch
I was waiting for you to feature the musk ox, they are the most successful in creating a ring formation, facing thier enemies while hiding thier back end and the young at the center.
yup, horn and team strategy has the best synergy, almost op, i'd hate to see horned herbivores further evolve their group coordination, they'd be literally unstoppable.
Nice, so like the Phalanx formation once used by Human faction players during the Roman period
Hoplite formation
I do think a very interesting build is that of the ram, who uses its horns less for side-swipe style hits, and moreso for increasing the damage and knockback of its charging headbutt attack
Agreed, it’s such a unique build, and I’d love to see other factions spec into the battering combat style
Sucks tho
I think the evolution points spent on the thick skull and concussion damage reduction could be better spent.
A ram build with a more defensive underside would be quite good, as the headbutt attack requires start up where your character exposes their stomach. More fur, or fat would help ram builds land devastating blows. Along with that, there could be a really bulky build with wool, fat, and tough skin that would be able to soak up damage, deal with crowds well, and could prevent repeated attacks.
can't wait for the next video, I can tell it is going to be fire!
I know I can always count on TierZoo to give me the best strategies to the ever changing meta

The transition into the ad was so flawless I'm here to comment on just that.
The plants getting stuck on antlers is something I never thought before. It’s so funny!
Yeah, it is funny, but some more extreme cases, it can also be deadly. One weakness of the antlers. If your head can't move then your body is vulnerable to predators and starvation.
Makes me want to pass on ever using an antler build.

Another major downside to equipping horns is the attention you'll get from certain members and factions amongst the Human player base and has driven some builds to total or near extinction because of the high greed value that Ivory horns and tusks possess. The Northern White Rhino build is the most recent victims as there player base has gone down to the single digits and no longer have the option to mate as there numbers are so low and there are only males(I belive it was males) left.

2 females. Unable to reproduce because their back legs were to weak I think.
One important tradeoff to speccing into horns that was not mentioned here is that due to the heavy and often erratic motion of a player's skull when using headgear weapons the intelligence attribute has to dropped to at least slightly below average to prevent recoil damage to the brain during high impact collisions and swings. While reduced intelligence can often be a small nerf to pay if its allows for extra buffs to more critical survivals traits for your species build it can put you at a disadvantage against predator builds that employ attack strategies that require extra fore planning and anticipation to evade like team attacks or environmental ambush exploits.
Wait so being dumber makes it harder to get brain damage?
@@doug2555 Because you have a smaller brain.
This is a bit of a wild claim, you don’t have an analogue for most horned animals , and generally they aren’t any less intelligent the similarly sized animals if not more so? Goats are pretty smart and so are deer, woodpeckers should be vegetables by this logic, but they’re just as smart as other birds their size excluding corvids , what’s this based on besides brain size? Which isn’t indicative of intelligence..
Unless you spec into a brain positioned in a different part of the body, where the horns are not found.

It's worth mentioning that most horns face backward. I.E. They offer the best protection from the side and rear, and decent neck protection.
The only downside to this defense is on certain boar classes their horns can grow into their skulls causing bleeding damage which can result in death of the user.
@@turdycraics8594 i thought they fixed this bug on the newest update
@@AkramDeX not yet unfortunately
@@AkramDeX it’s a high risk high reward mechanic
@@turdycraics8594 My understanding is that's because they don't use their horns enough. Some classes have teeth or horns that constantly grow, so need to be worn down to not cause catastrophic internal damage. Rats are another example of this, if memory serves.
I honestly wanna see what the hacking community can do with some features, like making an insectoid build that has both an exo and endo skeleton, or a reptile build that can survive in the frozen tundra.
Ya know, things that the unaltered gameplay mechanics don't allow.
That's where gene engineering comes in (moral or not)
You also got to love the Speculation community; The future is wild is such a good fan-project, despite it's lackluster graphics.
I think a human build with the brain spread through the body like the octopus, could have a lot less weaknesses and be even more OP.
but like, a build like that insectoid would be practically useless, and birds are essentially reptiles that can survive on the tundra.
It is impossible for an exoskeleton user to have an inner skeleton. It would be an interesting idea, yes. But, the reason why inner and exoskeletons exist is for opposite reasons!
An inner skeleton exists so a species can have flexible muscles to move fast. An exoskeleton exists to offer armor to the creature, weighing it down, and boosting its defense.
This armor needs to be shed when the creature grows bigger.
If such a creature were to, somehow, exist that had both it would have such a massive internal pressure that it would be surprising if it had any ability to move, let alone survive.
What your thinking of is a creature who has an inner skeleton but gain armor. This is doable. But, with evolution come some passive bonuses that allow for certain builds to exist, effectively.
Without these bonuses a skeleton user would been to have a temporary armor set because they literally don't have the muscle strength to sustain the level of pressure.
Therefore, starting with a mollusk is the way to go in that case, or some other thing without a skeletal structure. This is so your inner bones don't ache and degrade.
Did you know shellfish exist?
I’ll never get tired of watching a wildebeest yeet a lion in the air.

"The two main weapons are horns and antlers"
Pronghorns: "Are we a joke to you?"
Anyway, time for bonus education for viewers!
Technically Rhinoceros "horns" aren't horns. Horns are defined as a keratin shell with no tines that grows over a bone core underneath it near the base. Rhinoceros "horns" meanwhile are just a huge protrusion made entirely of keratin without the bone core. Antlers meanwhile are defined as a deciduous bone growth that usually has tines and is shed shortly after its fully grown.
In his video he also gave an honorable mention to ossicones at 1:37. Ossicones, the lumpy horn things on Giraffes, are also not horns either. They're bony skull protrusions that get covered in hair and flesh and, unlike antlers, are not shed.
As for the Pronghorn mentioned in the beginning of my comment: Pronghorns are kinda like the middle ground between a horn and an antlers and are found only in members of the family Antilocapridae (of which the only surviving member is the North American Pronghorn Antelope). Pronghorns are unique in that they're a keratin shell over a bone core, like a horn, but it possesses tines and the shell is shed and replaced like an antler. Thus it is neither a horn nor an antler, but rather its own catagory.
Some players call it "convergent evolution", some players call it "shamelessly copying a working strategy".
In fairness he did say main two, I'm sure there are heaps of cool little subcategories like this. :)
Horn
-a hard permanent outgrowth, often curved and pointed, found in pairs on the heads of cattle, sheep, goats, giraffes, etc. and consisting of a core of bone encased in keratinized skin.

Definitions can be more generalized than you think. So don't be so quick to correct
I wanted to make a video entirely on pronghorns just because they're super interesting, but sadly stock footage websites are pretty barren when it comes to pronghorn fight clips.
@@WanderTheNomad I literally have a degree in Natural Resource and Wildlife Management. I'm just communicating the scientific definitions and terminology that we use to define and address things in a scientific context. And I wasn't trying to be corrective, I was using this comment section to provide further information and education for the people interested.

We literally have scrapes on the frills of Triceratops and an injury on the leg of a Tyrannosaur giving outright concrete evidence that they DID use their horns for defense.
Dunno if I'd call that 'concrete.' Not disagreeing with you but yeah.
On at least one occasion for sure, but I think the question is not "could they be used for defense?" but rather "were they typically used for defense?" Even I would consider biting an animal if it were trying to eat me and put itself close to my mouth, but that in of itself doesn't mean that the usual human game plan is to bite anything the instant it threatens me.
Also, would like to point out some of these dataminers were inaccurate saying early horn users are triceratops.
Theres actually a much earlier one, which is zuniceratops.
im so glad i clicked this video, exactly what i needed from a long day's work
Best commercial for audible I have heard for sure.

That’s a nice “ *CAT* -apult” there!
Horns have some utility value too in some species. The Bongo's wide outswept horns serve the standard purposes of defense and swag, but their particular shape means that as they walk through their home forests, the horns slowly sweep away at branches along the bongo's usual paths. When they're confronted and want to flee, they simply tuck their horns back and are able to run at full speed through the gap in the brush the horns have created. You get full horn utility in an environment where they are often a major liability.

Awesome! I had never heard of the Bongo faction. Thanks for turning me on to this new play style. Those horns are rad.
Another incredibly niche ability of the bongo relates to their pigmentation. Their red colour is actually very loose, and when wet allows them to distinctly mark their trails for other players. This was a weird choice, but became very powerful when human moved in, because when early human players touched bongos they had killed, it stained their hands blood-red for years. The massive morale penalty meant that despite their excellent match-up against other antelopes, the human playerbase refused to target bongos at all until very recently.
The Giraffe trucking the lion and stomping on it and the zebra donkey kicking the lion in the face are some of my fav aminal videos ever
I just discovered this channel and my god I laughed so damn hard at the commentary 😭😭😭
You forgot one of the most dangerous aspect of the horns, the HORNY satus effect, this effect differ depending on the character but most of the time, the affected individual will be far more agressive, enraged and will have a 20 perce increase in power , speed and resilience but a 60 percent debuff on intelligence

@@billybobjoe4847 lmao bro
Berserk mode I like that, no thoughts head empty
I don't know how I found this channel but I'm glad I did. I'm not even particularly interested in animals, but maybe I'm sure the RuneScape nostalgia doesn't hurt.
I stopped the video to find someone mention OSRS. Thank you, I will finish the video now.
@@jonathanponce7846 yeah i got to 1:40 and had to take a peek. ONE OF US! ahem.. carry on
I am the only Gen Z who plays old school runescape and I think it's the best MMO, I like that there's no Microtransactions and everything is just about hardwork, and I wish I was able to play this game back in its glory days.

I'd never get tired watching this type of content
As someone that makes everything in my life a game to beat so it’s easier for me to process without stressing myself, this channel is an absolute gem bro
That's a good mindset, i should apply it to my life.
I see people like they are some AI
@@Andreas-zm9tg that’s stupid bro this is a multiplayer game I can’t even believe you thought this was a solo game, I bet you even think your pets are AI you monster
I see my life in this manner as well except I would also add the tag of Hardcore mode because for the most part you only get one life.
Same here👍
I didnt expect you to upload so quickly. I was pleasured to give a like. Anyway here's some next video ideas:
1. Are anteaters OP
2. Parasites tier list
3. Eusocial insect tier list
good ideas

Parasites for sure.... great suggestion.
Top tier parasite: 20 year olds still living with their parents.
aren't anteaters blind?
I love how he starts the Horns part with the Black Ops 2 Multiplayer Soundtrack
The eyewitness intro theme at the beginning brought back too much nostalgia
This video is so great! I love the on screen chats. Also, with so many clips of cape Buffalo vs Lions, I wonder if you'd ever considered doing a "Famous Rivalries video. In depth stats on both builds, some history, and how the matches usually play?
Love this idea
There's a stealth hack for the Cervid reproduction quest called the "sneaky fucker" strat. Essentially a male finds a female to complete the quest with, while other males are distracted competeing for party leader, while avoiding direct competition themselves. It's pretty much the standard in the speedrunning community.
Yeah but you can't get too much reproduction score like that. It's good for low-level starters tho, just a bit risky if the party leader catches you, lol.
This is the first video ive ever seen of yours, and i love it sm. Subscribbled
The hit market edits on this one are gold
