      Also: He draws all of his videos by himself instead of using pictures like Tierzoo does… So thats a plus I guess?

    If you want to play an easy laidback character, don't main a Sloth! Main a Turtle instead. At least you get defense! Some can even swim in the sea! Although keep in mind those ones...have a very hard grind in their first few levels. So hard in fact, barely any of them make it to endgame. Better to be a land turtle instead.

      exactly, just like Tree builds but due to Sloth being a little more mobile you can actually move out of danger zones if you need and thus not loose your Farm Build unless a Tree who is just going to stay in like a wildfire and all your progress is lost.

      It's a good build for farming, but if you spend that much time afk, you will be ironically farmed by better developed builds used by active players.
      In this patch, where humans are meta and human players just ignore lesser builds, it can be a viable build if you have some luck, but if you encounter any other predator class player, you're done.

    The sloth build actually has a hidden talent. Its claws are still highly damaging, and its reflexes in close quarters is much higher than its mobility indicates. However, the energy cost of using this can be crippling, as their diet and slow digestion may actually end the game via the starvation condition if they use it too much.

    It was more so the change of the climate. The cold reduced food and food is usually the limiting factor on size. Smaller sloths were able to survive. However sloths have no speed and as still fairly large mammals they don't have great stealth either. So with the forced reduction in size removing HP and attack they had to flee to the trees.

    I'll admit that the tree sloth build is pretty abysmal in combat. However, a case could be made that it's one of the best builds in the game for someone attempting a pacifist run.
    Their great advantage is one that you won't necessarily pick up on from their stats alone: there is very little benefit for anyone in attacking a sloth. They don't provide much XP. They don't taste very good, due to all the gunk in their fur. They're herbivores who suck at dealing damage, meaning that they pose no threat to anyone.
    You mentioned how they use leaves as their primary energy source, and how inefficient that is. That was an intentional part of their design. Sloths have complex four-chambered stomachs that allow them to digest certain plants, including leaves, more easily than other herbivores can. This is important because it allows them to focus on food that other herbivores aren't especially interested in, e.g. leaves, and thus AVOID competing with said other herbivores for food. Leaves may not provide much energy, but a) they're ridiculously easy to obtain in the arboreal zone, and b) sloths have such a low metabolism that they NEED less energy than any other mammal their size. This non-competitive strategy means that they're unlikely to either run out of food OR threaten any other players' food supplies, so they won't come into conflict with other herbivore players.
    Spending all of their stat points on stealth and HP is the icing on the cake, as making themselves even slightly harder to a) find and b) kill further decreases the motivation for predatory players to attack them, which is why said predatory players typically only do so if they're either extra hungry or training n00bs.

      August RempelEwert
      I suppose the poor int was a necessary sacrifice as well: as can be seen on the other end with the human build, nervous tissues have insane resource costs, so humans had to sacrifice a bit of strength and a bit of vegetation eating ability, although they hit such insane int levels that the latter was overcome with the new “cook” skill, rare but not unheard of before, in small amounts (raccoons moisten their food before eating), but seldom to the level that human builds pour time into being able to use many things as loot.
      Also, I’ve always wondered whether humans have a higher susceptibility to illness by raw foods and other sources than other predators, or if it’s a side effect of spreading to servers with strains they never encountered

    • @QuakerMC

      As much as I enjoy these to tier videos, he puts way too much emphasis on combat when it comes to these rankings. It's certainly a reliable way to approach the game, but avoiding combat and especially maximizing on unused niches are very viable strategies. The low ranking of the sloth is a great example of this bias. Their ability to successfully occupy their niche and success in the Central and South American rainforest servers earns them a place in mid-tier in my book

      Isaac Jonas But he pointed out how the sloth doesn’t have nearly a high enough stealth stat to mitigate the need for both power and mobility. Even the octopus (the build with the max stealth stat) has at least some other positive attributes, like their signature ink clouds and high intelligence. In a meta full of so many powerful predators (especially when their habitat includes the Amazon of all places), you need to be able to fight or get away or do literally ANYTHING so that being spotted isn’t a death sentence. Especially when, again, your stealth’s only okay. Come to think of it, the sloth’s like the capybara, but without the HP and with ‘strategies’ so ridiculous they seem to only be there to sabotage an already poor build.

    • @mistermoneyman300
      @mistermoneyman300 Před 5 lety +52

      pacifist build tend to work poorly. it worked for the sloth only because his zone prevented humans and some predator to attack them.
      Koala build is pretty much an "echo" of sloth build. The koala just has singly higher mobility and poison resist to eat poisonous leaves but an abysmal intelligence level. the low profile strategy worked well at first but everything changed when smarter builds came to australia like human, foxes, cats and dogs. They ended up having humans as support players after those humans and their parties almost kicked out the koala build from the game.
      Dugong: Dugong build is made to be an pacifist tank. A lot of hp but it was assumed that having low mobility and intelligence would be not a problem. but they are easy source of xp to anyone in their range including humans. Dugong just end up unable to defend itself.
      panda: they just got a crippling overspecialization with bamboo causing severe constipation.
      Making a build that is centered around not bother other players force you to focus on one or two type of source of food to avoid any competition. most pacifist build are overspecialized and start to suffer from it with the next update.

      Another thing of importance is to know that while the climate is warming, that quite specifically means the average temperature. This is really very important.
      Warmer climate is a less stable one, and temperature changes may get stronger as well. Both down and up.
      The sloth's problem is that they can not afford a large drop even once. Sloths desperately need a stable climate, and a warmer one is not.

    • @Dargonhuman
      @Dargonhuman Před 5 lety +16

      In addition, the increase in average temperature will also result in changes to the compositions of habitats, i.e. fungus and bacteria AOE debuffs that weren't a concern in certain servers are suddenly patched in with environmental mods. That's why a lot of frog mains are finding their playtimes severely curtailed, their builds were never meant to be played on servers with high fungal AOE.
      These mods could have catastrophic effects on the sloth's food source, either through parasitic AOE infection that would reduce the nutritional status of the leaves or, more likely, kill off the trees completely as we've seen in other servers like the American West where tree-killing parasitic AOE debuffs can destroy entire swaths of forest in less than a decade.

    Hey tier, my little sis and I were actually discussing the Meta today, and we noticed a really weird player build out there that we think you should take a look at. The axolotl.
    It has insane regeneration, and (if I recall correctly) can even regenerate its brain. I think they're even immune to aging.
    But with all of that, they're not even a tank, live only in one small area, and basically do absolutely nothing with their unique abilities.
    I'd love to hear your thoughts on this!

      According to a scientist's blog post in 2015,[1] axolotls actually do something with their regeneration, although it does sound like a stupid application. "Axolotls regularly bite each other on the leg as part of their whole social structure and the loser often ends up having to regenerate a whole limb."

      True. And yawn is all important when running a slaking. But Pokémon and Outside have different metas. In Pokémon, sloths are viable. In Outside, sloths are literally the worst animal possible when living. The only creature ever to somehow make Koalas look viable. They deserve their own tier. Sloth Tier. It doesn’t get any lower.
