Diet & Nutrients

In the Isle there are three types of dinosaurs: Omnivore, Carnivore, and Herbivore. Each with their own diets, migration requirements, and needs. Food keeps your dinosaur alive, gives a growth boost, and a buff to various stats.

Diets change often when new things are added, taken away, or adjusted. If you see incorrect information please report it to the EQG discord.

Survival icons indicate (non-diet) food or water nearby

• Water drop - Rivers and other drinkable sources of water.

• Leaf - Herbivore food (non-primary diet) - Can lead to dropped food or flora

• Turkey Leg - Carnivore food (non-primary diet)

• Torn Meat - Chunk of meat (non-primary diet)

• Clean Bone - Bone Gore - may not be safe to eat unless specific dinosaur

• Bone Scraps - Rotten meat - may not be safe to eat unless specific dinosaur

• Egg - Represents gestated eggs either stolen from a nest or found on a body. (Icon coming soon)

• Gastroliths can be foraged in gravel and areas of the swamp.

• Gastroliths help drain  your stomach temporarily while eating. This is good for when you need more hunger to build up your diets.

Going to any Salt Lick on the map and press TAB to open the character window. This will display a UI including the nutrients on the right hand side.

Select the nutrient you wish to deplete faster then go lick the Salt Rock.

Continue licking the salt rock until the Diet is at the point you want it or gone completely.

Salt Licks now have an Icon in-game! It resembles a chunk of crystal or rock. You can locate a salt rock by sniffing.
