      There are very few pure herbivore builds.
      Herbivores generally will take meat if it is given to them, but generally find vegetation grinding easier once they have the digestion buffs so just go for that.
      One exception might be vegan-class human builds though, who maintain a herbivorous playstyle even without digestion buffs by using their intelligence stat to pick the right nutrition.

    I'm getting a few comments saying that hippos do eat meat on occasion, which is something I looked into while writing this episode as well. Based on what I found during my research, hippos only eat meat when severely stressed or starving (insert another Darkest Dungeon reference here) and since they can't actually digest it, I think it's fair to still call them obligate herbivores.
    tl;dr a healthy hippopotamus will only eat vegetation.

    As a hippo main, here are a few tips:
    1. don't stay out of water too long or you'll lose your moisture and dry out.
    2. the sweat is helpful, but use mud more often, kind of like a Barroth from monster hunter.
    3. avoid growing with salty hippo players, they'll likely kill you and you have to restart growing.

      @@johnmichaelchance1151 yes he was advert hunter, he fist fought a kangaroo if I remember correctly.
      yes Teddy was a beast who has balls so big God tried to kill him with malaria but he lived and once a man tried to murder him with a gun in a bar so he punched him so hard he knocked him and kept punching him till he was a bloody mess and after the cops came he went back to drinking his beer. he was shot and make fun of the gun men who shot him.
      he fought in ww1 and Spanish American war Mexican American war and is a Major player for why Mexico was annexed entirely.
      so yes Teddy bring hippos to Mississippi sounds like something Teddy would do because going to Africa to hunt a tank is 2 much work why not just import the man tank and hunt it america?

    1:45 I didn't know hippos could run that fast. I can see how they were able to get such a reputation in the African server for PvP against human players. Unless they have a fairly high-quality ranged weapon there is not a lot a human main can do, since hippos are one of the builds who are virtually immune to human intimidation attacks.

      It's a close call actually, hippos are slightly faster than a human at top speed, but humans can run at top speed for longer than a hippo
      25-30 seconds for the hippo
      35-40 seconds for the human
      If there was some distance between you, then a reasonably fit human might be able to outrun a hippo by running it out of energy, and that's ignoring adrenaline, which can make you run even faster, and for longer than normal

      Let alone out running it in general since height is a major factor here so if you're shorter you are fucked regardless of if you keep up top speed since you are simply not gonna be able to cover the same distance as a taller person in that same time frame

    I've heard that a professional Hippo player is called "Moto Moto" and he gets multiple mates in every play he has. I think you should make a video about legendary players from the game.
