Good tip is to use charge when you are close to someone to save up stam. Also good combo is to charge someone , then bite them and when backing off tail smack them. Wait for charge cooldown and repeat the combo untill you kill your oponent. The whole combo does 196dmg if you have lone hunter.He has decent dmg but is very squishy in my opinion.

He HAS to be squishy because he is good everywhere else.
@Joe-ff4zi10 ай бұрын
I agree but taking almost half hp dmg from rex to body with 1 bite is just too much. Also before you are able to buck off raptor off you as Pycno your HP is almost completely gone.@@jamesholcombe675

Pycno is a skill mans dino. If you know how to play him well and you know your matchups and terrain well, you will be a terror to most dinos. That hp nerf does seem pretty odd but you do got the walking speed to get around, super funny when a kill hungry ano sprints after you and you just casually walk away from him.

Pycno is a cliff hunter. Bait dinos near cliffs or catch them to close to one and knock them off. Small dinos take alot from reflective damage and big ones take alot from fall damage. Utilize cliffs like a sarco uses water

Pycno is a glass cannon and the health nerf was supposed to enforce that play style. Glass cannons have devastating offensive abilities but crumple under assault. You’re supposed to attack and not be hit back. Preserve stam by charging at close range. Use your gripping claws to turn quickly to face smaller faster dinos at a walk. These things absolutely melt alios and dasps 1v1 and 2 pycs can kill anything. They’re badass when you learn how to use that attack and retreat play style. I only use the knock back when fighting on a hill to get them to take fall damage.

Thats the point He is a Glass Cannon He had to much health for what it did before A Good Pycno could kill alot when Solo Suchos, Allos, Dasp, etc Plus Pycno now got Armored Tail which is VERY good, specially on Pycno where you are supposed not get hit from the front
@kaponofalconer83110 ай бұрын
Honestly, how about instead of giving nearly every semi-apex/apex creature strong legs, why not have the knockback determine on the combat weight of their target? Basically, the greater the combat weight, the less distance they will get knocked back.

I mean i just love being able to hawk down dinos with him. And playing close to a hill is your best friend. With that knockback you can really kill off anything launching them off a hill.

In my experience, a group of 3-4 pycs that have good cooldown management and know how to play pyc are actually scary. It’s hard to punish a good charge from them and can be difficult to fight
@spikezilla5410 ай бұрын
The way I've come to play pycno now is using horn swipe and headbutt as a defensive distancing tool to keep other dinos from getting too close and then using the charge for hit and runs. If chased then using tail attacks. Could also go for a charge to start an attack then use either headbutt or swipe to knock a dino aside to prepare for your get away. Since pycno has always been pretty squishy and even more now with the health nerf, keeping a dinosaur away from you so that you don't take too many hits from them is the better way to deal with most threats. Even if they have strong legs, not every player uses it and you still are able to move them.

For the experienced players on *un-modded servers* the Pycno can be decent. That said I feel like most players are on servers with mods, and there it just gets out competed by sooo many dinos. Maybe it's just my lack of experience, but I personally feel like it's not worth it in most scenarios.

As they have nerfed him badly, he can now be knocked out of hunker by any charge abilities making him unplayable now, 2nd slowest dino, hunkered is disabled by any knock back ability. Or grabbed.

In my opinion pycno is worth growing its very weak as in health and it can be tricky to get kills with but it you are trying to find something to hunt I'd go for anything smaller or weaker than a metri or just anything asleep because if you can hit something while it's sleeping with the charge you can't lose nice video simply :D

It’s his stam and speed he is a glass canon. A couple go tips is don’t take any hits you don’t have to take and if you can never get bonebroke cause if you get bonebroke your dead and the bite/headbutt never use unless it’s to finish off or tail ride a Dino with no tail attack and spam his charge close range since it doesn’t gain dmg the further you charge so to min max charge close range to save stam and make sure to run away right after using your stam and speed to keep your distance from your target till charge is back up then go back in for one then run away just make sure to avoid any hits if possible since like I said before there glass canons so they die fast but there charge is one of the most damaging carni abilities in the game
