Beasts of Bermuda is a multiplayer online game where you play as a dinosaur. Choose your preferred creature and you will spawn as a juvenile of that species. Talent points are available as it grows, which can be used to improve its capabilities.

A New Dinosaur is Here

The Cackles and Claws update adds the Megaraptor as a new playable creature. Although this is a swift and deadly dinosaur, it is a fragile one.

Its primary attack is a standard bite that inflicts regular and bleed damage to creatures unlucky enough to be at the receiving end. Its secondary attack can be done by holding the attack button. Doing so will make the Megaraptor perform continuous swipes with its claws, consuming ability power in the process.

There are a few things to keep in mind when it does a slash attack. First, it causes moderate damage, but its bleed damage is quite substantial. Second, you can initiate it until you run out of ability power. And lastly, the attack stops immediately when you release the attack button.
