Overview
The Malfunctioned Tek Triceratops is a large herbivore with a unique role in logistics and transport due to its weight reduction capabilities. It can be airlifted by Quetzal or Tusoteuthis for rapid deployment across vast distances. This makes it ideal for mobile resource transport and field operations where weight efficiency is critical.

Tips
- It takes significantly more damage from Instant HurtDinos, so avoid placing it near automated spike traps or similar mechanisms.
- Spike walls are extremely effective against it, dealing double damage, making them ideal for perimeter defense.
- Fire-based attacks are poorly effective, dealing only 40% of normal damage due to its high resistance.
- It can be carried by Quetzal, enabling fast repositioning during combat or transport.
- Its vulnerability to explosion damage makes it risky to use near demolition charges or artillery.
