Tips & Strategies
Trust me, there poop will save your life, and on pvp they can unlock doors during raids
If you startle it alot it will have a heart attack and die no matter how high the hp is
If you're in an area where they spawn and are having trouble locating one, start killing all other dinos in the same area, the game will eventually spawn your desired target.
I normally leave the area for a short time to allow new spawns, once you have killed everything off.
I would assume this will work for any Dino spawn you were looking for.
They're fun to have around, they unlock doors. I dunno, don't ask me, maybe they have a monkey wrench xD. Anyways they are good to have on your shoulder on neutral as they throw poop at enemies when you are hit, which slows them down. Good for taming things like trikes, just keep whistling neutral, passive so they don't absolutely hammer the thing your trying to tame
They take damage when spooked, go slow and approach from outside their line of sight. Don't get to close!
You can find some around the green obelisk, i found myself a level 130 once
These monkeys are one of the easiest shoulder pets to get all you have to do is sneek up to them with berries or kibble in your hotbar and feed them and they have a special ability to throw poop at you enemy's and disable the sprint for a couple minutes while takeing damage.
Mesopithicus can flee without her pack in pack mesopithicus is passive but herting them they attack with her pack
This thing is literally a poop machine
Dude, these things are FRAGILE when in the wild. I literally found a female one to tame, but a Dilophosaurus had just then decided that she would make a tasty snack, so I stood my ground and rushed past the monkey, feeding her a mejoberry as I did so, and saved her at the same time by distracting the Dilophosaurus by fighting and killing it (even when I knocked it unconscious I killed it as I gave that thing’s sorry flank no mercy). She did get a bit startled by the commotion of the fight and ran away, but because I ran in the opposite direction while fighting the Dilophosaurus, she quickly lost sight of us just as quickly as she had obtained it. Taming her right now. #SaveTheMonkeys #SaveTheMesopithecus
I tamed 37 of these with mejoberries. No crouching or crawling or even ghillie. Just simply feed ONE dodo kibble or be very careful and approach from behind. They are an adorable tame, and can equip hats!
I feed him some dodo kibble and soothing balm and boom i name him ted
Crouch down behind them feed them mejos them back up quickly. Do that over and over agian . Their hand fed DONT get violent
If you get too close or bump into a Mesopithicus while taming, it runs away. It will usually stop running once it loses sight of you and you can try to tame it again.
