The video discusses the different types of turtle builds in a game, categorizing them into two main groups: side-neck turtles and hidden-neck turtles. The narrator explains the advantages and disadvantages of each type, with hidden-neck turtles being considered superior due to their ability to conceal their weak points. The video then ranks various turtle builds, including softshell turtles, tortoises, snapping turtles, and sea turtles, based on their defensive capabilities, mobility, and overall viability. The narrator concludes that turtles are a solid build, but not the best, due to their low intelligence stats and vulnerability to coordinated attacks.
1. Turtles are divided into two main groups: side-neck turtles and hidden-neck turtles.
2. Hidden-neck turtles retract their head and neck directly into their bodies when they activate their defense mode stance.
3. Side-neck turtles tuck their head to the side when they activate their defense mode stance.
4. The neck is one of the most well-known weak points in the game.
5. Softshell turtles have average defense and above-average mobility.
6. Softshell turtles have a powerful mobility bonus in water.
7. Softshell turtles can deal a solid amount of damage with their bite.
8. Freshwater turtles tend to have great matchups against other aquatic builds.
9. Freshwater turtles' biggest enemies tend to be things coming from outside the river or pond.
10. Many turtle builds put points into oxygen extraction, allowing them to absorb oxygen from the water.
11. Oxygen extraction extends the time a turtle can remain submerged.
12. Tortoises take the characteristically high and low traits of a turtle to the absolute extreme.
13. Tortoises have defenses through the roof, making brute force almost completely useless.
14. Tortoises can block attacks from all types of cats.
15. Tortoises dominate the high scores for total game time on a single character.
16. Tortoises have a severe reduction in speed and intelligence.
17. Snapping turtles opt for a high power level and are not as slow as tortoises.
18. Snapping turtles use the bait and punish strategy.
19. Snapping turtles have solid stealth and a lure ability.
20. Sea turtles are proof that even in a server full of power and intelligence peers, defense tanks can still be a viable option.
21. Sea turtles speck into the omnivore playstyle and never really need to pick fights they can't win.
22. Sea turtles can eat plants while waiting for the next easy opportunity to score a high XP kill.
23. Sea turtles have additional defense points placed into venom resistance.
24. The venom of a jellyfish has the potential to one-shot just about anything.
25. Sea turtles can repel a shark's strike by facing the face of their shell towards the shark.
26. Turtles have low intelligence stats.
27. Turtles' main weakness is intelligence-based strategies.
28. Experienced players can bypass armor using creative and critical thinking.
