Triceratops is the HP buy at wave 47
Triceratops uses the purple header and prints DINO - WAVE 47: HP 2.2K, DMG 65, SPD 11, $578. The purple band starts at Juvenile Tyrannosaurus on wave 31 and ends at Brontosaurus on wave 59, so this card is late in that run.
HP is the column that stands out. 2,200 is the third-highest HP on the 33 dinos, behind Titanosaurus at 4.7K and Brontosaurus at 2.9K. The DMG pill is mid-pack, and SPD 11 ties Ankylosaurus and Titanosaurus for the slowest dino speed.
Purple cards around the $578 price
Juvenile Stegosaurus is the uncomfortable comparison. At $317 it prints HP 1.4K, DMG 70 and SPD 13, which beats Triceratops on DMG and SPD for $261 less; Triceratops answers with 800 more HP.
Brontosaurus is the next step up at $740. It adds 700 HP, 35 DMG and 2 SPD for $162 more, and it is the last purple card on the index. Giganotosaurus at $462 is the cheaper damage option, with 1.8K HP and DMG 115.
| Card | Wave | HP | DMG | SPD | Price |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ankylosaurus | 37 | 580 | 140 | 11 | $92 |
| Juvenile Stegosaurus | 39 | 1.4K | 70 | 13 | $317 |
| Giganotosaurus | 52 | 1.8K | 115 | 15 | $462 |
| Brontosaurus | 59 | 2.9K | 100 | 13 | $740 |
Does the wave 47 slot need this card?
The next red boss after wave 47 is Gravemaw at wave 50: HP 13K, DMG 130, SPD 4.2, $1,600. HP per dollar is 3.8 on Triceratops and 8.1 on Gravemaw, so the boss card is the cheaper wall if you can reach $1,600.
If you cannot hold that much cash, Triceratops is the largest body you can actually place at wave 47. The decision is about the HP pill, not the damage pill: DMG 65 for $578 is 0.11 per dollar, well below Ankylosaurus at 1.52.
Triceratops Calf is a separate green card
The index also has Triceratops Calf at wave 5: HP 80, DMG 16, SPD 18, $22 on a green header. The card does not label the calf as a variant of the adult, and the database does not either. They are two rows with the same animal name.
The numbers do not describe a growth line. The calf is faster at SPD 18; the adult has 27.5 times the HP and about 4 times the DMG for 26 times the price. After Triceratops the next purple row is Acrocanthosaurus at wave 49, which is cheaper and faster but has 900 less HP.
FAQ
Triceratops FAQ
Is Triceratops worth it at wave 47?
Only if you need a 2.2K HP body and cannot reach Brontosaurus at $740. Juvenile Stegosaurus at $317 prints better DMG and SPD for less cash. The price is the problem with this card, not the HP.
Triceratops vs Ankylosaurus?
Ankylosaurus is $92 for HP 580, DMG 140 and SPD 11. Triceratops is $578 for HP 2.2K, DMG 65 and SPD 11. They share the slow speed; Ankylosaurus has more than twice the DMG, and Triceratops has the bigger HP pill.
