==Combat== The Hippopotamus is a large animal that appears in a herd around freshwater sources. They appear to be grazing but don't let this fool you! Hippos are very territorial and will defend their areas furiously. Great care should be taken if you decide to engage in [[combat]] with one of these animals. The Hippo uses their size to cause blunt force trauma and can inflict [[File:Injury minor ico.png|border|30px]] [[File:Injury major ico.png|border|30px]] [[Injury]]. Being a large animal, it is hard to [[File:Intimidate ico 128.png|22px]] [[intimidate]] them even while holding [[weapons]]. It is possible with a group of [[hominid]]s to intimidate a hippo but beware if it fails as you will have a large and angry animal coming after you. If you engage a Hippopotamus in combat in water deep enough to be swimming, you will be unable to [[counterattack]] or intimidate. You can only [[dodge]] the hippo (and not very well). Be very careful with a hippo in the water because your available combat actions are limited and the hippo is just as deadly in deep water as it is on land. If you do decide to attack, use the best weapons you can acquire. It is recommended to use [[File:SenseIcon SharpStick.png|28px]][[Sharpened Stick]]s first, [[File:MindIcon Stick.png|28px]][[Stick]]s next, and as a last resort [[Items#Rocks|rock]]s or hard [[tools]]. Be warned, using a close quarters weapons to attack the hippo will likely result in injury around this dangerous animal. The more damage you can do from a distance, the better. Hippos have a relatively large amount of health, taking multiple successful strikes even with a Sharpened Stick to kill, though it is possible to get lucky and kill them with one strike.
