 * A new Animal added in the patch v206 May: Mega-Update

Behavior
Olfends are docile unless provoked.

Taming
The Olfend is tamed with Cactus. They also can be tamed with other Vegetables, or Fruits, but Cactus has most effectiveness.

Taming TIP: feed it from backside close to its shoulder and aim to head

Utility
The Olfend is a fast running mount with the ability to jump, similarly to horses but not as far. It is mostly used as a walking water source. As of that you collect water via the "c" attack from green ground or sweet water spots. When you look at your Olfend you can see the carried amount of water in blue colored letters, while riding you can see an icon on the top right screen which indicates the amount of water. With left click attack Olfend harvests resources or attacks while right click attack sprays a fountain of water in front of you. This can be used to fill the water of other players as well as a Water reservoir and put out fires.


 * Left click is a stomp used to attack or harvest a small amount of berries/thatch/wood.
 * Right click sprays water in a cone in front of the Olfend, using approx. 20 water units as a base amount. This can be used to dowse fires or fill the water skins of players.
 * C drinks from water rich ground. Works similarly to how you find water with your hands or a shovel, without the minigame. You can also press C when it's raining, to fill up completely.

Breeding
Olfend can only be found in desert regions so it only can be bred in desert regions. Further information coming soon.

Acceptable temperatures for mating are at least 25°C. Gestation is 5 hours 30 minutes.

The minimum temperature for keeping babies warm is also 25°C. I'm unclear if this is a bug but the babies do not appear to eat as much as other babies do so you can quite safely be away from the babies for reasonable periods of time. If breeding in the desert be aware of the temperature drop at night. As far as I can tell the babies are immune to heat waves as babies were cold when 57°C ambient under an early morning heatwave.

Combat
Olfend has very low health and a weak attack, so it is not recommended to use it for combat.
