Crow

Crows are one of the docile Birds in ATLAS.

Behavior
Normally passive to players, but will retaliate if attacked or if one of their kind is attacked nearby. While not a major threat on their own, large numbers can overwhelm.

Appearance
Small, black birds with short beaks and a strutting walk.

Taming
tamed with earthworms. If you do not have access to earthworms, however, you can use. Be aware that the taming time will be much longer compared to the earthworms.

A useful method for taming is using a and grappling hook. Place a near your desired tame and grappling hook it when it lands. Use the grappling hook's to drag the crow to where you're walking. Walk behind the and pull the crow inside, then unhook the grappling hook and run inside. Use a to hit the crow until it's low enough to, then feed as normal. When the tame is almost free, use the grappling hook on it again. This will cause the crow to be immediately grounded upon waking up, preventing it from glitching through the and freeing itself. Simply repeat the /  process until tamed. If you are unable to place a in the area but have another player nearby, have one player grapple while the other hits with the  and s the crow. The grapple will prevent it from flying off. Keep in mind that the grappling hook will only last for a certain length of time, so be prepared to grapple again if you need to drag it a long distance to your.

An easier method, and one that actually works on PvE servers, is to damage the crow and lead it to an area out of range of enemy foundations where you can place a structure. Then continue to damage it until its health is in the red and it is circling crazily over your head and it. If it flies away before then just stand still and wait for it to return, then spin up the bola, aim slightly above its head, and release the bola once it's 20 or 30 meters from you. Once the bird is on the ground, place a, four s (one with a doorway in it), a (place after the first wall and then hang the last three walls down from it) and a. Then climb inside with the trapped bird and tame it in safety and within the comforts of your little taming hut. Once you're done politely demolish the structure and enjoy your new super-smart-ifying pet.

Utility
Crows are a shoulder pet that grants a boost to. A level 1 Crow gives your a +10.4% boost. A level-capped (130+) Crow gives your a +60% boost.

They dramatically slow falling and reduce fall damage when on a player's shoulder. (Tested on a fall that dealt 110 damage without one and 2 damage with.) ''NOTE: This is no longer the case at least as of v207.8. Since no one has thus far reported seeing patch notes about this, we do not know if it is a bug or a feature.''

Combat
Long weapons like spears and pikes work well against crows; Giraffes do extremely well against them.
