Sheila is alive and happy on my PVE server. She guards my greenhouse.
Totally thought this was another player first time I encountered it in single player.
Tamed 2 ( lvl 125 and lvl 90 ) did some upgrading mostly to health and melee. Turned my back to cook some meat. Hear scary music, see lvl 130 Rex's corps just flying over my head.
I coloured mine green, named it shreak thèn dropped him in the swamp
Hope you get shiela back
From experience, fly with argie and drop them in a box and then take them. Passive tame btw. Mine kept getting attacked by terror birds and the tame bar would reset.
⤴️ so others morons like me will know.
Nice to know people are praying for my shiela thank you!
This creature only spawns in the redwood forest, So I recommend using an argentavis to bring him into a taming pin, or he will most likely die by terror birds. If you wear a full ghillie suit then he will not agro on you. If you don't have a ghillie suit, Then sneak up behind it's back, don't get too close, don't let it see you, and then feed it berries. If this helped then please like this. 👍🏼
Use gillie armor!
The his furry stink ape is a must have for caving, exploration, and travel. Hop of this lost father in a bush for fiber and wack em for berries.
I wiped out the entire lava cave in just six minutes. With a few foundations of course for traveling over gaps but they are absolute tanks. You can equip a helmet in the saddle spot (i use the flak helmet) and they look so menacing.
If you want to tame, make this trap out of WOOD. Make a 2x2 foundation with 1 wall high. And around the rim of the walls place ceilings on the OUTSIDE. when you use your argy to lift this guy into the trap it will agro somewhat fast so make it relatively close to it and drop it in but right after you drop it in and land CROUCH as soon as you can and wait till it’s not mad anymore. Once it’s chilled out hop on the ceilings and crouch again. Feed this guy mejoberries for an easy tame and/or use soothing balm for a faster taming process. You could also just follow him around with mejoberries in your hand and shove it up his butt. The trap is easiest way for taming this beast and you can rule ark with this guy.

I had just knocked out an argie and was preparing to tame it. Then I realized I had barely any prime meat. So me and my pteranodon went out and absolutely murked every paracer and diplo around the red peaks. Then when I was going back I was flying low and didn’t see the small brown patch under me… Then a purlovia jumps out and attacks me, breaking my chitin armor and lowering my pteranodon to half hp, when I got unstunned I got on my pteranodon as fast as I could.
I knew I couldn’t make it out with the pteranodon in time so I prepared for the worst. Then my hero, A level 30 bigfoot storms out from behind a tree and beats the living crap out of that purlovia, killing it. Needless to say I thank bigfoot for taking time out of his day to beat up a bully.
No gille armor all you need to do is crouch behind it and shove berries up its butt...I'm not kidding
I was being attacked by a dire bear (I didn't have good weapons) and this dude came over and murdered the dire bear
If you type in "bigfoot" this shows up?? WHY
ITS TRUE
