Tidepup (Small) — Detailed Guide
The small
Tidepup is the shoulder-pet stage of the Tidepup in ASA. It is fragile but useful: it speeds up its owner's health regeneration and can later evolve into a large, rideable healer.
Where to find it
It spawns on Genesis Part 1 and Astraeos, and in our data every Tidepup spawn on those maps is this small form.
Taming
A passive tame with a twist. Lead it to a player or tame whose health is below 10%; standing near a campfire or using a
Blood Extraction Syringe works. It heals the target and then naps. Feed it while it naps, and repeat until it is tamed. Good foods are
Cooked Lamb Chop,
Raw Meat,
Raw Mutton and
Regular Kibble.
Breeding
It lays eggs. An egg hatches in about 5 hours, and the baby matures in about 1.5 days at 1x.
Uses
- Shoulder buff: about 250% faster health regeneration and less oxygen use.
- Protection: a health buffer that turns damage into healing, and a dispel for the first negative effect.
Tips
Healing you and your tames is what pushes it toward the large form. Choose Neotenic Stabilization to keep it small for good.
