Tips & Strategies from the iOS & Android apps
Finally, a kind of sloth so I can tame up the ice age characters, got Manny, got Diego, and now I have Sid
350% melee = 1000 chitin per arthropleura, 500 per scorpion, 400 per spider. THE MACHINE
MEGATHERIUM: Sound Triggered?
Towards Insects, hell yeah.
The Dododex doesn't show this yet, but these things Ark Devs call Giant Sloths are the No.2 Producer of Chitin and Keratin.
You never have to worry about Cementing Paste Again!
ThAtS sOMe NicE anTs yOU GoT ThERe.... It'D bE a ShaMe IF AnYThiNG HaPPEneD To ThEm......
14 of these, three Yutyrannusses and 3 Daeodons can and will kill The Broodmother on every difficulty
There's a reason it's ranked 7th best melee in the game, run.
If you or anything you have with you is carrying chitin they will attack you
Use this beast to hit the burnt trees in Ragnarok to harvest tons of charcoal! Best way to make gunpowder!
Giant bee honey seems to work well for taming. They can be picked up by wyverns.
Absolute godsend for meat runs in caves. Only things that'll aggro up on it are Pirhana, Megalania and (presumably) Megalosaurus. Otherwise, everything else (including Arthropleura and Sarcos) won't aggro. Have at 'em!
