There are very few pure herbivore builds. Herbivores generally will take meat if it is given to them, but generally find vegetation grinding easier once they have the digestion buffs so just go for that. One exception might be vegan-class human builds though, who maintain a herbivorous playstyle even without digestion buffs by using their intelligence stat to pick the right nutrition.

I'm getting a few comments saying that hippos do eat meat on occasion, which is something I looked into while writing this episode as well. Based on what I found during my research, hippos only eat meat when severely stressed or starving (insert another Darkest Dungeon reference here) and since they can't actually digest it, I think it's fair to still call them obligate herbivores. tl;dr a healthy hippopotamus will only eat vegetation.

Hippos also haven't specked into the Ivory category, so they're not endangered by human players. Smart move by their side.

[@randomkinkajou5747]

Actually, they did spec into ivory, just like elephants and walruses. Their ivory just isn't worth it as they have good stealth and that ivory is hard to get to.

[@baldieman64]

The UK government is currently in the process of adding hippos to the ivory act, in order to reduce trade. The biggest advantage for the hippos is that while they can be shot in the water, they sink, so the only way to get the ivory is to get in the water, with the other hippos and with the crocodiles. Poachers have to REALLY want that ivory.

Just killing humans doesn't make you S tier though. Orcas have no human kill registered and they're number 2. Dogs are the number 1 support class, thus S tier too, and even though they're the most widespread carnivore, their human kill percentage isn't even near to being important.
