Breaking down the Raptor in Grow a Garden

Ability

The Raptor overview (Image via Roblox)

The Raptor has two passive abilities that are quite useful for all players. The first provides it a 2.5% chance of applying the Amber Mutation to crops as you harvest them. The odds of this ability activating for rarer species are even lower, but that can be mitigated somewhat as the Pet levels up. With each level, the Raptor gets a 0.04% increase in ability activation chance.

Since Mutations can’t be applied to Fruits post-harvest, it’s important to apply every desired Mutation before attempting to stack Amber on a Fruit. That way, you will only be missing the multiplier applied by the Amber Mutation and not other, more valuable options.

Its second ability increases player movement speed by 14.5% for as long as the Pet is on the farm. There are no stipulations for the activation of this ability; it will remain active and let you move around a little faster across the map.

How to get

As is the case with all Dinosaur Pets, the Raptor is available from the Dinosaur Egg. Its hatch chance is 35%, making it the most common Pet in the Prehistoric Event. Since it is quite easy to acquire, you can always have multiple Raptors roaming about on your farm. That way, you can maximize the Amber Mutation chance.

You can get the Dinosaur Egg from the Dinosaur Eggs station by giving away one of your non-Dinosaur Pets. This engages the DNA Converter machine, which transforms your Pet into a Dinosaur Egg after an hour of processing.

Note that there is an extremely small chance of your Pet being converted into a Dinosaur Pet instead. This conversion yields a random Dinosaur Pet, so there’s a chance of getting the Raptor this way instead of having to hatch the Egg.
