A Giant Bird is a very large, prehistoric, flightless bird which roams in desert, jungle, drylands or prehistoric lands environments. It can be found in almost any biome area, but is most common in any prehistoric lands area. Giant Birds have a moderate aggro chance and can almost keep up with any explorer. Although they aren't as aggressive or fast as some other mobs, Giant Birds are troublesome for almost any experienced explorer to defeat due to its toughness and high damage, combined with their numbers.
In just a pair, Giant Birds represent some of the most dangerous enemies in the game, capable of usually out-damaging the Giant Crab and soaking up more damage with a combined 36 toughness. In threes, Giant Birds are by far the most dangerous mob in the game, massively out-damaging a Giant Crab and with over double the toughness combined. Fortunately, in the most recent version of the game, they no longer appear in threes.
Having a full-upgraded Native Warrior in your trek will reduce the birds' aggro chance to zero, making them completely docile except if you attack them or use drums.
Combat[]
Giant Birds are moderately aggressive creatures which can attack in alone or in pairs.
Each Giant Bird receives three attack dice per turn:
Trivia[]
Like the Giant Crab the appearance of this creature takes its inspiration from the 1961 Mysterious Island movie, an adaptation from the novel of the same name written in 1874 by Jules Verne.
