Which Should I Pick?


Advice


My group is restarting the game in a couple of weeks. I am choosing to be a druid again. I am having a hard time deciding what should be my animal companion. I've had a velociraptor before and I may still want a dinosaur. Judging by all of the feats and stuff which should I pick:

Stay with a Velocirptor
Spinosaurus
Roc
Crocodile
Rattle Snake(w/ fangs)
Cheetah

Or give me some better ideas for one. Thanks and please help before we restart.


Raptor!


Triceratops. Sure it's only one attack, but think of it as only one attack to boost with improved nat attack.


Now I'm adding Triceratops to the list. Anything else besides these I should get?

Trex would be fun.

Spinosaurus starts with the highest base str score + it has a swim speed.

I believe in the PF SRD they have a mega-raptor, a bigger nastier version of the standard raptor but unsure if it available as an animal companion.


u playing in a specific AP? where's the campaign set?


No we're not playing a specific one. Sadly the only one by me has little kids in it. They're a little less smarter about this topic but they are funny. My DM just makes a silly mash up of different fun adventures from different games. He makes a story line and we follow it. Like I just said HE makes it up, it's not already made.


I am always one to switch it up. I would not do the dino thing again. Try croc or better yet, cheetah, just because its different then what u played last time

Although by that logic I would have done something different that a druid, but thats just me


The giant vulture from Bestiary 3 is nice. Only one attack, but it hits hard and you'll eventually get to make a second attack. It gets big enough to be a flying mount too!


Also instead of a giant vulture there is a Roc in the bestiary. It's also a giant bird big enough for a mount.


Ankylosaurus companion with intimidate and antagonize. Freaking hilarious, and has huge unaugmented AC.

You will have to teach your ankylosaurus to speak, as Antagonize is language-dependant.


Any other ideas? Thanks to those who have already.


I'm adding another to the list, a Allosaurus. With all these which one should I pick?

A crocodile is a dinosaur. Get you own Gustav.


Besides a Roc is there any other magical animal I can have as a companion?


I like the cheetah, it's charge is a great way to close with enemy spellcasters.
