Superior Kibble
Overview
The X-Dunkleosteus is a rare aquatic carnivore variant from Genesis: Part 1, distinguished by its weight-reducing capabilities. It reduces the inventory weight of multiple resources, making it highly effective for resource hauling. This dino is primarily tamed to transport heavy materials efficiently across oceans. It can be airlifted by Quetzal or Tusoteuthis for rapid deployment.
The variant suffers a -3% HP penalty but gains a +5% Melee boost compared to the base Dunkleosteus.

More about taming the X-Dunkleosteus
Tame the X-Dunkleosteus using knockout methods. Use a Chain Bola or trap it with a Bear Trap or Large Bear Trap to immobilize it. Sedate with Tranq Arrows from a Bow, Crossbow, or Compound Bow, or use a Longneck Rifle with Tranquilizer Darts.
Feed it Superior Kibble for the fastest taming. Raw Mutton also works if kibble is unavailable. The process takes around 40 minutes and requires no Narcotics. Use the calculator below for your settings.

Experience
The X-Dunkleosteus reduces weight for Oil, Metal, Stone, Crystal, Obsidian, and Black Pearl by up to 75%. Carry it with a Quetzal to keep weight reduction active during air transport. It takes +400% damage from spike walls, making it vulnerable in defensive perimeters. Its -100% damage resistance to Mining Drill Harvest means drills are ineffective against it.
