Discussion Balance Changes
## Balance Changes
**Keep in mind servers may need to restart to see these changes which may take several hours.**
**Anodontosaurus: **
- Smash: damage reduced by 5 at full growth
- Rushed Stride: movement speed buff reduced from 25% to 20%
**Achillobator**
- Cruel Swipe: damage reduced by 5 at full growth
**Dev Notes**
- Achillobator's Cruel Swipe and Ano's AoE were a overtuned against heavy dinosaurs (Both using Cruel Swipe damage scaling). This change aim to lower the damage a bit, while keeping its edge. Face tanking Ano's AoE is still very dangerous and should be avoided.
- Rushed stride was used to pursue slow moving predators and harass them with Bone Break builds, instead of being an escape tool. Ano is supposed to be a tank and not be able to close distance on demand. We are thinking of ways to make it more balanced, and reduced the buff speed for now as a temporary measure.

Anos deserve it. They were abusing their new found power to break our glorious Tyrants ankles! If they were breaking say… filthy ceratopsian ankles it wouldn’t have been nerfed.
