Dear survivor
Do you want to have your very own therizinosaurus? I have just the guide! Follow this and you should have one pretty soon. I did not include traps because they are too expensive for a small Dino like this and can be spent on bigger Dino’s.
LOCATE
1: find a tickle chicken
PREPARE
2: get more than enough tranq arrows (or your preferred on hand knock out method if it’s long ranged)
3: have a weapon that is long range (crossbow or longneck preferably)
4: pack lots of narcotics (you will need them), I learnt the hard way and had to frantically run around and get every bush in the vicinity for narcoberries
5: have an escape/tanky dino to travel on (iguanadons are quite fast and pteranodons can fly so they are both good)
HUNTING
6: pack your stuff and track down the chicken
7: once your tickle chicken is found again (trust me it’s a lot easier to come across one randomly then find it later) scan the area for other threats
8: find a nearby cliff/vantage point where the chicken will have a hard time tickling you
KNOCKOUT
9: hope your a good shot and hit the oversized turkey, the goose will run at you
10: if you picked a good spot the bird won’t get you and you can shoot it until it starts running, if you didn’t then hop on your preferred method of locomotion and get out of there. If you can find another vantage point then go to it. Either way this part can be difficult
11: if you shoot the chicken enough times it will run away, when this happens chase after it on your biological vehicle or just run after it. Try not to run into some bigger Dino’s or off a cliff
12: you shoot it and knock out the chicken of tickles
TAMING
13: feed the beast some majoberries (idk how to spell the name) or some kibble
14: watch its torpor, it drains really quickly. Force feed it narcoberries or preferably narcotics
15: rinse and repeat
USING YOUR GIGANTIC GOOSE
16: once your tickling terry wakes up, craft a saddle at a smithy (if you can, I’m actually making a saddle whilst writing this)
17: have fun with your therizinosaurus!! Make sure to level it up to make it stronger, faster and tougher. Also upgrade it’s harvesting abilities.
Sincerely, Alpharius
