Arknights Wiki

The Cautelotaur is an elite enemy in Arknights. It first appears in A Flurry to the Flame.

Description

A predator crafty by nature, with sightings of this species rarely reported. After feeding on the Chitotex Clawbeast, it uses the leftover carapace as a defensive tool, blocking fatal attacks in fights.

After feeding on a Chitotex Clawbeast, leaves its shell to use as a defensive tool, significantly lowering all damage except to the rear.

Overview[]

A rarely sighted, large Terran reptilian theropod reminiscent to how maniraptors such as Velociraptor are depicted before the discovery that dinosaurs are more closely related to birds than reptiles due to having feathers, Cautelotaurs are a dangerous enemy thanks to their very high HP and ATK along with decent DEF, allowing them to soak heavy punishment from Physical damage while dealing as much in return, though they have no RES whatsoever.

Notably, Cautelotaurs are capable of preying upon Chitotex/Keratex Clawbeasts once they are close enough; should they successfully predates one, the Cautelotaur will took their shells which gives them the same damage reduction and weak point property as the Basorobeasts. To compound this, Cautelotaurs will prioritize facing the direction with the most friendly units, necessitating more engaging strategies to hunt them down.

Should the Cautelotaur is struck by a Flash Grenade while wearing a Clawbeast shell, they will drop it and loses its protection as well as the ability to prey upon Clawbeasts again.
