Megachelon

The Megachelon is a giant sea turtle that works as a mobile platform. You can build on its shell, its back restores oxygen underwater, and it slowly produces seeds, flowers and mushrooms, so it works as a floating base, dive station and plantation in one.

Where to find it

It lives in deep ocean water: the ocean biome of Genesis: Part 1, plus Lost Island and Fjordur in ASE.

Taming

A passive tame. Let a Parakeet Fish School chase you and lead it into the Megachelon. If a Megalodon attacks it or you hit it, taming progress resets. The Megachelon Platform Saddle unlocks at level 45.

Breeding

• Egg: hatches in about 5 hours. Eggs need very deep water, and The Island is too shallow.
• Growth: a baby matures in about 3.9 days at 1x.

Uses

• Platform: holds structures on its shell, with seats for a rider and passengers.
• Diving: survivors and tames above its shell underwater regain oxygen.
• Farming: produces Amarberry and Azulberry seeds, Rare Flowers and Rare Mushrooms.

Tips

Adding or removing the saddle destroys whatever is built on it, so decide before you build.
