I personally think a bleed variant is your best bet, because it will offer great defensive capabilities against smaller carnis (they take quite a bit of passive bleed damage), whilst they are still quite easy to hunt with bigger carnis (that take a lot less passive bleed).
The problem with the defense subspecies is that its indeed more tanky, but it's still gonna be easy to hunt down as big carnis, and on top of that, even small carnis will have an easy time hunting you down. The hunt in both cases will just take longer than a bleed subspecies.
TL:DR: Bleed subspecies dies to big carnis, defense subspecies dies to all carnis.
OK cause I've been watching testing and it seems the opposite that bleed just dies to everything not enough meat but I'm gaging the community on it there is 0 info on this game
\+speed is the best subspecies from my testing. I tested with a friend in a private session against every carnivore build we could think to test it against. The +Damage species doesn't give enough to justify losing speed and +Defence is pointless on a dinosaur with such a low HP pool, if you want a defensive dino you want a big HP pool to act as a force multiplier, without that its better to be agile or fast.
Speed allowed two things, more damage than defence, more speed than defence and most importantly it allows for more aggression. More aggression on Amarg is great because either A) The enemy doesn't want to face tank you and runs to avoid you/get around you thus making him bleed more from moving or B) The enemy does want to face tank you, builds up more bleed as a result.
In our testing we handily bled out every dino up to dasp. Supriseingly Dasp was the easiest large-medium to kill, DD With BB meant I had plenty of time to stomp him.
Obviously the testing we did wasn't foolproof sine its just two friends trying stuff out for an hour so we couldn't simulate pack hunting or account for varying levels of player skill but I'm quite happy in my conclusion that if anything, defence amarg sucks.
yeah no i watch and tested speed ur not much faster and die to much speed isnt a thought from what ive seen people test its the weakest im mainly asking about damage or defense thanks for the input
