Dilophosaurus is a genus of dilophosaurid neotheropod from the Early Jurassic of Arizona. The genus only contains one species, D.wetherilli.

Dilophosaurus was added to The Isle alongside the Ceratosaurus in the dev branch in Patch 0.1.16.4160, and both were released to the public in Patch 0.1.16.4262.

In Real Life[]

Dilophosaurus was a giant theropod for its time, the early Jurassic period; it measured around 7 meters (23 ft) long and may have weighed 400 kilograms (880 lbs). It seems to have been a fast, agile runner.

The most distinctive characteristic of Dilophosaurus are the pair of rounded crests on its skull, made up of extensions of the nasal and lacrimal bones. These are considered to be too delicate for anything but display purposes.

The diet of Dilophosaurus has been controversial; originally thought of as a predator of terrestrial animals, due to its relatively weak jaws it was then commonly believed to have been a piscivore or scavenger. It's possible that Dilophosaurus was a generalist carnivore, preying on whatever it could.

Despite common depictions, Dilophosaurus is not known to be venomous, and it lacked a neck frill.

In The Isle[]

Quick and small, Dilophosaurus is a nocturnal hunter, with the best night vision and bleed damage. It can easily hunt smaller herbivores and AIs like Orodromeus and Psittacosaurus. It can even fight with small carnivores such as Utahraptor but any ambushing Allosaurus, Ceratosaurus or Carnotaurus can outrun and kill it.

In Evirmas sixth update, the Dilophosaurus has hallucinogenic venom, replacing its notorious bleed damage.

"Significantly larger than the Troodon, the Dilophosaurus is a predator that favours nocturnal hunting. Equipped with exceptional night vision and a nasty venomous bite, which if inflicted after sunset will leave you wondering what's real... and what's not."

General Information[]

Pros:[]

  • Highest bleed damage.
  • Best night vision.
  • 3rd fastest carnivore in Survival.
  • Short grow time.
  • Low hunger.
  • Takes a very short time to smell while moving.
  • Drinks fast.
  • Good default colour palette, perfect for day-time camouflage.
  • Its high bleed damage means it can take on some larger animals, such as Tyrannosaurus.
  • Very fast trot--it is nearly equivalent to that of Giganotosaurus.
  • Very fast heal.
  • Very weird hit box lets it easily dodge attacks on the tail.

Cons:[]

  • Bleeding out opponents may take a while depending on your skill.
  • Must avoid most major dinosaurs, especially during the day.
  • Vulnerable to attack by an ambushing Allosaurus, Ceratosaurus, Utahraptor or Carnotaurus.
  • Eats very slowly and loudly.
  • Utahs can tail ride as a Dilophosaurus has a larger turn radius for both its z walk(slow) and trot(fast)
  • Small bite hit-box and short active duration can make it difficult to land attacks.
  • Abysmal crouch speed
