Tips & Strategies
Just found out something really useful about Brontos! You can use them to transport goods a long way, but sometimes you have more than the bronto can carry, so, if you pack your resources on something like a high level parasaur or iguanodon, and put it on the platform saddle, it only takes the Dinos drag weight, not resource weight, allowing you to carry tons of materials at half the weight!
Pretty easy tame with prime meat and chasing with a bary, just keep an eye out for jellies and megalodons
How to tame tuso
1 get a tame. I don’t see why turtles are so good at taming, meg worked fine but either will work. lvl up heath
2 search deep sea, I found 3 on brutal from the bottom left corner of the map to the top left corner of the map.
3 if you have soothing balm use it but I didn’t need it. use black pearls takes 50 at a time but if you did use balm you can use cooked prime meat takes 30 at a time I think.
4 go on a killing spree in the sea to open spawn spots for tuso.
5 when you find it, kill all eels, mantas, and any other hostile Dino’s near it.
6 tame by letting it grab your tame, then feeding it the pearls or prime meat.
It’s OFFICIAL:
You can only acquire a Fenrir (lvl150) after defeating the Fenrirsūlfr (Fjourd boss) the resulting tame is delivered in a cryopod after the boss dies.
The reason Dododex say it’s a knockout tame is because if you spawn a wild Fenrir you can knock one out and tame it that way, the only down side being the Fenrir CANT spawn in the wild
The Omega Timeline Chapter Twelve Part One and Two has released!!!!!
Also really not Ark related at all and somewhat off topic but since we’re are talking about cross species relationships. What is everyone’s opinion on the theories of Godzilla and Mothra in the Monsterverse as a love relationship?
Until Next Time!!!

There are orange rocks by wyvern trench with a couple metal best place I found to knock them out at. I got a lvl 140 the other day doing so
The Omega Timeline Chapter Twelve: Oddities and Confusion Part Two
The creature’s eyes full of fear stared into Andrew’s. It seemed confused and scared by what was happening.
“I assume you aren’t friendly?” The creature said, Andrew was shocked.
“What? No, I thought you were coming to attack us.” Andrew said. The creature chuckled,
“Why would think that?” The creature said smiling.
“Maybe because you were charging us like you were attempting to attack us.” Freya said.
“Oh…” the creature expressed.
As he said that, the others in his group came over. They stopped once they noticed that Andrew had a loaded bow aimed at the creature.
“Buddy!! Are you alright?” The person said to the creature.
“I’m okay Dr. Yang, I think it was just a misunderstanding.” Buddy said, The man turned to Andrew and stared him down
“Can you please put down the bow so no one gets hurt sir?” Yang exclaimed.
“You can hurt the cowering Purlovia if you want though.” A terror bird said smiling in the back. The other three looked back at him in what seemed like irritation. Andrew lowered the bow and slowly brought his hand with the string back to its resting position. And as magical as the arrow appeared, it disappeared into thin air.
“Thank you.” Yang said, Andrew nodded.
“Now, what is your name?” Buddy asked politely, “He looks like a Henry. We should name him Henry!!” An Omnipresent voice said.
“Steve, Buddy didn’t ask to name him. He asked what is his name! Meaning he probably has a name.” Yang said to the voice.
“I’m still naming him Henry.” The voice muttered,
“My name is Andrew. And I’m sorry to ask, but who’s Steve?” Andrew said.
“I’m Steve.” The voice said, “Okay, but what are you?” Erica asked.
“Well Jillian…” the voice said to Erica, and out from behind Yang’s head came out a squirrel. “I’m a Mammoth.” The squirrel said. Andrew, Freya, Sylas and Erica stood there trying to find words that they could say, but couldn’t find any.
“Pay no attention to him, he’s… not all there.” Yang said reassuring them.
Andrew quickly realized after this how far off topic they got and needed to get things back on track to what happened before. “So since that’s settled and you know my name, why did you come charging at us if not to attack us?” Andrew said to Buddy, trying to straighten things out.
“Oh right, I was gonna ask you if we can come into your house?” Buddy asked,
“Ah, well, this isn’t my house. I don’t even know where we’re at. Me and my friends came here to find out about this place and why we are here.” Andrew said.
“Us too!! And since you don’t own this place Henry and you don’t know where we are at. Do you want to join us on the walk up to the doors of this house to see who knows these important questions?” Steve asked.
“You know, I think we’ll catch up with you all, me and my friends are talk here for moment and then we’ll join you.” Andrew said. The other group nodded and started going towards the stairs. Andrew turn to the others, his head seemed like it was spinning from all that just happened.
“That was… eventful!! But extremely confusing…” Sylas said,
“We aren’t the only ones who are looking for answers.” Erica said.
“I don’t trust them all.” Freya said, everyone paused and looked at her in awe.
“Can we check her to make sure she isn’t a clone, shapeshifter or doppelgänger? Because she doesn’t do this.” Sylas said.
“I trust Yang, he seems trustworthy. I just don’t trust any of the talking animals.” Freya said
“Trust or not, we need to follow them. They are going the same way we are and we need the same answers. We have to be with them for the time being. Does anyone have any questions about this?” Andrew asked, Erica raised her and Andrew nodded his head to approve her request.
“Do you really think of us as friends? We barely know you and you barely know us.” Erica said, Andrew smiled and looked at them.
“You guys saved my life when I needed saving the most, you showed me hospitality when I felt alone and didn’t show you kindness. If I didn’t consider you three friends after all of that. I wouldn’t have deserved being saved.” Andrew said genuinely. The others smiled at this. Andrew turned around and looked up at the stairs. It was going to be a long walk up. But he was use to them.
“Now let try to catch up with those others before they make it to the door.” Andrew said. They all agreed with that and headed towards the stairs.
The Omega Timeline Chapter Twelve: Oddities and Confusion Part One
Andrew, Freya, Erica and Sylas walked through the night. Everything seemed normal going through the wasteland, except for having normal corrupted creatures and that they went through a normal day/night. It was extremely quiet walk through the wasteland. But as dawn broke they stepped into what seemed like a different dimension. They walked into an older looking city that seemed to be a strange mix of old and older buildings compared to what Erica and Andrew were use to. None of which felt like they fit together like a real city.
As they continued walking through the streets, they noticed that both humans and animals walked them. With some of the animals talking to humans. This confused all four of them.
“I guess it isn’t only monkeys that speak here.” Sylas said,
“Why is anything talking here? Sure, parrots can repeat what humans say and apes are known to learn sign. But nothing can speak and converse with humans in deep dialogue. So why is everything talking here? We’ve gone into complete fiction!” Erica said.
“You mean more fiction than giant space stations that hold most of what remains of Earth’s life?” Sylas remarked, Erica looked over at him and gave him a deathly glare.
“Guys, quit arguing about what is fiction and nonfiction. It’s not helping out our situation. All we know is two things. One, we aren’t on Earth. And Two, nothing here works like our natural order.” Andrew said,
“So then what is this? A simulation? Workings of another advanced alien race in our universe? What could all this be?” Erica asked.
“I don’t know, but we need to find the answer to that question and another question. Why are we here.” Andrew said,
“Well, if you’re looking for answers in place that seems unusual. Then look for the place that stands out the most to get the answers.” Sylas said,
“We did do that, but we haven’t found anything yet. We need to continue looking.” Freya said. Sylas shook his head,
“I wasn’t talking about that… I was talking about that.” Sylas said as he pointed in a direction. The other’s looked and saw a floating mansion with nothing holding it up but a staircase from the front door to the ground. Something that definitely didn’t belong in the city they were in.
Andrew stared at the building for a moment. The longer he stared at it, the more he felt… drawn to it. He couldn’t help but feel that was the place they were looking for. Andrew took a step and started walking towards it.
“Andrew? Where are you going? Shouldn’t we plan this out before going there?” Erica asked, Andrew didn’t answer. He just continued walking towards the mansion. Erica turned around and looked at Freya and Sylas.
“We are going to talk this through before walking blindly to that place. Right?” Erica asked, Freya walked past Erica and headed towards the mansion with Andrew. Erica looked back at Sylas in confusion.
“We aren’t right?” Erica asked Sylas,
“I don’t think we are, I feel that we need to go there.” Sylas said as began to run over to the others. Erica looked at the three walking and was in flabbergast. Yet, she had the same feeling.
“What is that supposed to mean!?… Hey, wait for me!!” Erica said as she ran towards the three.
* * * *
Andrew heard each of the others come to him one by one. And as they got closer to the mansion. They noticed four others at the bottom of the staircase, only one of which looked like a human. Andrew looked back at the others, none of his group seem to have any of their weapons from before. He stopped and turned around.
“Stay behind me, we don’t know if they’re friendly and I’m the only one with a weapon in our group.” Andrew said as he pulled out his bow. He didn’t completely activate it though, he didn’t want to aggravate them into a fight nor did he yet know if they were friend or foe.
As they got closer to the staircase, they began to hear a conversation of the five ahead. One of the creatures turned its head towards Andrew and the others. Almost immediately the creature started running towards them, and Andrew heard Sylas beginning to scream.
‘So much for not trying to provoke them.’ Andrew thought and he activated the bow and bow expanded to its proper size. Andrew drew back the string and almost like magic, an arrow that seemed to be made of pure energy appeared. Andrew continued to hold it back to let more energy charge up in the tek arrow. The charging creature saw the bow and it started skidding as it tried to stop in its tracks. Andrew and the others watched as the creature stopped and hunkered down ten feet in front of them. The creature looked up at Andrew, its eyes wide with fear.

“I guess, but… why would he scream out in pain too? If he was responsible for the disappearances, why put that on himself?”
“I don’t know Warren, he was CRAZY!” Sam yelled, slamming her fist on the table. Warren slunk his head hopelessly on the table.
“We’re getting nowhere with this…”
“What are you talking about? We’ve gotten so much info!”
“We have practically no leads Samantha! Our kid could be out fighting for his life on whatever space island whichever sickos decided to abduct scholars for and we’re out here studying why he isn’t screaming!”
“Let’s not get hasty. We can still ask Calem for help, he might know something we don’t.”
“I guess you’re right…”
Warren reached into his phone to call him when the door to the restaurant opened and two men walked in. As Sam spotted them, her face dropped.
“Oh great, not this guy again.”
“Hey, I heard you two were on an investigation… Care if I join?”
Warren turned around, and standing there was Big Jack with a tanned, tall collected man by his side. Warren squinted his eyes at him.
“What are you doing here? Shouldn’t you be serving jail time for… you know, starting a massive bar fight?”
“They only slapped me with a fine. It was in… self defense after all, hee hee,” Big Jack giggled. His face suddenly transformed into that of seriousness, “Joking aside though, my little brother’s gone too. Lil Jack and I were supposed to rob a few chumps blind after he graduated, but now he’s gone and I don’t know where he went.”
The tanned man eyed him with concern, before turning to the two and introducing himself.
“I’m Son. My nephew was also involved in the Terran High Incident. I saw your message on the Dex, and I couldn’t help but feel obligated to find you. I went to the station, met Big Jack here on the way, and now here we are. We should work together if we want our loved ones back,” Son calmly said. He was very well-spoken and had a strange accent, as if he came from another region.
“We all have one thing in common, I suppose,” Warren replied, “So what, does that mean we’re all teaming up or…”
Big Jack pumped his fist in the air in excitement.
“Nyah hah hah! Yes! I get to work with the Judge…”
Son pointed his thumb at the door.
“I think we should go to the library, I discovered something that might really help us. You two can finish eating up. Me and Big Jack will be waiting outside.”
Son walked out the door, and before Big Jack left, he grabbed a handful of fries from the bucket. Warren let out a snort at the sight, and got up from his seat, cracking his neck and grabbing the food.
“Alright. Let’s go, I’ll call Calem on the way out and tell him we’ve got more help,” Warren told Sam. He reached into his pocket and pulled out two dozen bucks, putting it on the table for the waiters to collect.
“Okay… Warren,” Sam replied with a smug smile. The two stepped out of the restaurant, and as they did Warren brought out his phone to call Calem. But before he called him, he noticed a notification on his phone. It was from the Dex. He opened the app up, and there, he saw a message delivered to him on the forum.
“Deputy Warren. Pleasure to meet you. Dodo Tales can be found in the Archives. Once you go there, go to the year 2015 and scroll all the way to the bottom. You’ll find his story there. I do warn you though not to dig any deeper. Your kid is doing just fine. This is for your own safety. - Moon.”
A smirk tugged at the corner of Warren’s lip.
“Perfect.”

“Are you out of your damn mind, Deputy? You can’t just storm into a bar and incapacitate everyone in there, regardless if there’s a fight going on or not!” a man with a thick mustache was scolding Warren from his desk. Warren crossed his arms as he rocked himself back and forth on the stiff wooden chair.
“And what did you want me to do boss? Officer Sam was in danger.”
“You could have very well just tased them all. You were reckless out there and you were not even assigned to stop that madness. That was Officer Sam’s task, not yours,” Warren’s boss sternly said with a pointed finger, “We’re suspending you until further notice. You’re lucky you aren’t outright taken off the force.”
“Gee thanks a lot,” Warren replied while rolling his eyes. The mustached man shot him a glance, and Warren got up from his seat.
“Get out of my office now before I add another offense to your record.”
“Okay okay! Mr. Justice is leaving,” Warren said, raising his hands in surrender and exiting the office.
As Warren walked past police officers and sheriffs alike, and out to the reception area of the station, he saw a woman with long black-blonde hair that fell to her chest standing there with her arms crossed. She was wearing a black tee-shirt and black jeans. It was Sam.
“What happened to your hair?” Warren asked with scrunched eyes.
“Dying my hair was becoming a bit of a hassle…” Sam admitted. She put her hands in her pockets shyly, “Detective Darren finally forwarded the video footage. Let’s view it.”
“I’d love to do that, but I’m kind of starving,” Warren told her, “Can we grab some grub?”
“You really think grub-” Sam paused, and scoffed, “Fine. We can get something to eat. But you’re paying.”
Warren and Sam made their way to a local burger joint called “Nunya Buns”. As the two entered a bell rang, and they were greeted with the waft of fresh fried potatoes and sizzling meat. Sam’s eyes lit up as they entered, and her stomach grumbled.
“Haven’t been to a place like this in a while,” Sam muttered, her eyes getting droopy. Warren walked up to the stand and ordered something, and the two made their way to a two-seater, where they took a seat.
“Alright. Let’s get to business,” Warren said. Sam pulled out her phone and played the video. She sped the video up, until eventually they reached the part where the graduates mysteriously disappeared.
“I managed to find a specific camera that had Samuel on it, and there was something… interesting,” Sam explained. She tapped her phone a few times, and the camera was pointed at a man with black graduation robes. He had sparkling eyes and a soft smile. Samuel.
“Look. You know how the others kind of scream, and then they disappear? Look at Samuel. He doesn’t.”
Sam played the video, and it went just how it did the last time they watched it back at Terran High. The scream of the principal rang out, and everyone else followed. A tanned woman near Samuel fell into his arms, but Samuel made no groan. The enveloping light poured into the camera again, and they were gone.
“But what could it mean?” Warren asked, “And so what? We still don’t know why they disappeared or who could have been responsible for this.”
Just then, a waiter with a paper sailor’s hat passed by and dropped off a tray stocked with two big juicy burgers and a large bucket filled with thin stringshoe fries. Sam eyed the burger warrily, before grabbing it and taking a large bite out of it.
“Maybe the principal was keeping his eye on him, and chose to exclude him?”
To knock it out, use any sort of explosive (Grenades are cheap and have early unlock) and throw it at the Fasola while it's underground. It will look like a pile of sand and shouldn't react if you go up to it.
As soon as the explosion goes off, run up to the Fasola and mount it. You only have a few seconds to do this. Once you're on, try to find any nearby rocks/bones/etc and run into them. Every rock you hit will increase torpor and control. If control runs out, you will be dismounted.
DO NOT GO ON CLIFFS !! If the Fasola goes into the air at all, you will automatically dismount and lose all progress. Depending on your rates, it could take a long time to gain enough torpor.
TL;DR : Explode it, mount it, hit rocks, avoid cliffs.
