I just tamed a golden spiked dragon turtle, aka, elder seadragon. It sounds like a like thunderstorm when it walks! Loud turtle is loud. Anyone else have one? Does it do that? Do all the spiked dragon turtles?

Bloodtooth, Rankbite Ancients and Elder Shoreshell Snappers don't seem to (at least I don't remember them doing that from the ones I tamed). However, the Rankbite Ancients make a continuous grumbley, snorting sound and tame up to be smaller than the other turtles.

Well, despite being listed as 87 here, I can't find an 87 Elder Shoreshell Snapper to test. Bloodtooth eludes me. And I can't try out the Rankbite Ancients yet. However, Krosh make the same thunderous noise as the Elder Seadragon >.< I named him Thunderfoot and put him away hoping they fix it to less overwhelmingly loud.

Krosh, the Green Spiked Dragon Turtle made those thundering sounds also when I tamed him. I released him shortly after because of that.

Similar to some core hounds?

I can confirm that Bloodtooth does indeed sound like a box of pans falling down the stairs. I just assumed that it's all spiked dragonturtles, so I turned off the sound. I have the Elder Shoreshell tamed as well, so let me log in and try it out.

Brb.

I haven't noticed any unusually loud sounds with Bloodtooth.

You're right, I'm sorry, I tamed an Elder Seadragon and assumed at the time that all spiked ones were loud, so I muted all of them and just forgot to retry.

Bloodtooth - quiet
Elder Shoreshell - quiet

No cacophony from either of them! ^_^

Exactly.

My Bloodtooth is quiet.

Its like corehounds, but louder, yeah. And I got Bloodtooth and he's quiet. And I hit 88, so I can test that other one out.

How do you mute them?

I can confirm the "Spiked Cammo" ones do not boom when they walk. They do grumble and vocalize though and they do seem small.

So, I've tested all the spiked dragon turtles now and my results match up with what you guys have seen.

Elder Seadragon (bronze/yellow): extremely loud stomping
Krosh (bluish-green): extremely loud stomping
Rankbite Ancient (gold/green): no stomping but vocalizes often. Tames 1/3 the size of others, smaller than non-spiked dragon turtles. Is endearingly tiny and grumpy
Elder Shoreshell Snapper (bronze/blue): silent
Bloodtooth (red/black): silent
