Heres a tip- if u go into the bosses arena and forcetame it.... you'll be stuck there forever bc the boss gotta die in order for u to leave. :) hit de good button so more peeps can see
Make sure that you move your Rexs or creatures into the trees when you get teleported into the arena. This is to prevent your tames from falling into the hole in the arena, because if they fall they just die, and you lose the saddles and everything. Then you can go up on your yuty or whatever you are riding and you lead the Megapithicus to your tames, then let them go ham on the monkey. The Megapithicus is a glass cannon and anything g with a good saddle and a high health stat can easily destroy it. Just make sure that nothing falls into the death hole and you’ll be fine to actually fight the boss.
For gamma:
12 rex 20k hp 300 melee
Beta :
14 rex 25hp 500 melee 1 yuty
Alpha :
18 rex 25 hp 500 melee 1 yuty 1 health pig
U dont need good saddles trust me the different between primitive and ascendant saddles only 10% damage resistance
The summon code is Summon gorilla_character_bp_c
You can use Forcetame
And addexperience 111111 0 0 to level up
The megapithecus has two attacks a direct hit attack and a ranged Boulder attack. The boulder attack can and will kill you off your tame and I figured this out the hard way.so safest thing is to wistle attack Target hope off and have someone roar the Yuri good luck survivors.
Monkey bring monkeys more more more more more mooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooonkeys
THIS BOSS IS INSANE!! HE KILLED ALL 20 OF MY PARASAURS, DO NOT ATTEMP!!!!
To battle the megapithecus, I would suggest using a pack of allos,a yutyrannus, and a daeodon. The reason I pick these creatures are because that first of all, allos in a pack are dangerous, and one of them will be boosted as the alpha, and the other allos will also be stronger. Second, yutyrannus’s can scare away the minions the boss summons, and can make the creatures deal more damage. I also HIGHLY request a daeodon because they can heal your Dino’s, and itself durning battle, just make sure it has enough meat to last the battle. This method will work with any boss on the island DLC, not the overseer, but I used this method on the broodmother,megapithecus, and dragon, and it worked perfectly.
Been said to be one of the easiest but yuti and rexs is all you will need. This boss on hard takes us about 4 mins. Surround and start chomping. Debuff with yuti plus buff your rexs.
