What is a therizinosaurus used for? therizinosaurus battling strategies in ARK: Survival Evolved.
I have seen so many comments praise the Theri. And yeah. I'm gonna say my praise as well. The dossier likes to compare the Theri with the Rex, which it has the right to do so. Theris are the Rex of the herbivores, doing crap tons of damage and having slightly less health than the Rex. If you have an army of Theris, you can take on the bosses. I haven't fought any of the bosses as of this comment (legitimately, anyways) but I will use an army of Theris against the Dragon since they take less damage than Rexes. Now, for the best part of the Theri: it is a gathering machine. Berries, fiber, wood, thatch, meat, hide. It can gather it all...mostly. Sadly, it is stopped from being the ultra king gatherer of ARK because it doesn't have weight reduction on wood and cannot gather from rocks. Besides that, though, Theris are a necessity for late game players for the sheer amount of resources they gather. Also, the mutated Theris are stupidly overpowered.
Therizinosaurus Multiensis is way different than Therizinosaurus Cheloniformis.
Common Name: Therizinosaur
Species: Therizinosaurus Multiensis
Temperament: Aggressive
Time: Lived 70 mya
Therizinosaurus Multiensis is commonly mistaken for a predator because it isn’t docile. It’s long claws were ideal for killing and it’s health was above high. It’s sheer power alone helps it survive in the wild while it’s speed is pretty decent, making it one of the strongest dinosaurs that rivals Tyrannosaurus Rex. Therizinosaurus lives alongside other herbivores. Commonly, only one Therizinosaur lives in an area.
Domesticated
Therizinosaurus is not really challenging to tame, but is one of the most versatile mounts you can have. The long claws are great for gathering resources and it’s “tickle attack” sometimes describes it as a Tickle Chicken. Foraging is easy with the Therizinosaurus, but the Therizinosaurus was not interested in weight in the first place.
Traps: 2x2 roofless Stone Box with a wood ramp up one side and a door out the other. If you want it Therizinosaur-Proof, then you should make it out of metal. It is highly expensive, so I recommend you make it out of stone.

Taming: Search for a Therizinosaurus. Once you have spotted one, kill off any predator (even the Dilophosaur will attack the Therizinosaurus). Your tribe-mates could do this task while you start taming. Once you have attracted it’s attention, lead it to the stone box. Knocking it out with a fist or club is impossible. After, you can knock it out while it’s stuck in the box. Additional time (or misses) will let the Therizinosaur lose torpidity higher, so make sure you never let 5 seconds break in. When it’s knocked out, feed it with your food of choice. Remember that the Therizinosaurus’ torpor drains very quickly, so feed it a lot of narcotics. I have estimated that you need 65 narcotics for a lvl 5 Therizinosaur if you have a 3x taming boost. Once it is tamed, enjoy your tickle chicken. The saddle if you have not noticed is unlocked at lvl 69.
Note: For people who say this is nearly impossible to tame, it isn’t. Taming a Therizinosaurus is one of the best gifts you can have from the ARK. It will protect you from all dangers and ruthfully kill all enemies you have.

Best tame for gathering hide. Level heavy harvesting, and use C attack (bite) on corpses. It harvests only hide (and lots of it) from most dinos, so your inventory won’t be clogged with meat and whatnot. Nothing comes close to this efficiency for gathering hide.

Quick notice I havent seen on any other comments- if you hold E on the theri it will give a pop up menu for it, you can put additional points into specific categories you want collected. Delicate will collect more fiber, strong will collect more berries. I had 17 levels in the delicate category and collected 25 thousand fiber in about 2 minutes tops.
For Mobile,
Swipe up left side = Tickle Attack
Swipe down left side = Bite Attack (high knockback)
Double tap and hold right side = Claw attack (high dps)
On trees, Claw attack, tickle attack yields more thatch, bite gathers more wood.
On bodies, Claw attack yields both meat and hide like normal, Tickle attack does the same but in meagre amounts, don't use. Bite attack gives only hide.
On bushes, tickles attack gives tons of fibre much more than Sickle(go get craft them ascendant gear finally! ) .Bite attack gives berries. Claw attack has no effect.
Hope that helps. ✌️
