ARK: Survival Evolved Taming Calculator
Megatherium
ARK's base taming speed on PC, PS4, and Xbox is now doubled, meaning 1× is as fast as what 2× was previously. Dododex has been updated to reflect this. Use the "presets" dropdown for common multipliers.
For full Megatherium taming details, get the taming calculator app.

Tips & Strategies from the iOS & Android apps
Wild dinos ignore you while you are on it unless you attack them. Update so people can see
Take this mf to the bog biome in genesis and get revenge on every single fackin swarm that ever touched you and your kids.
Very good for gathering berries,thatch and fiber and very good for fighting the broodmother because of the buff they get when they kill bugs.
Use honey to tame. Its easy to get, And its a alternative kibble. Highly recommend using honey
Finally, a kind of sloth so I can tame up the ice age characters, got Manny, got Diego, and now I have Sid
In Mobile version, megatherium can be resurrect on the obelisk after killing it in the dungeon (plase in mobile, where you can have battle with bosses). It doesn’t live in normal world. In mobile it eats an old kibble: baryonyx egg+raw fish+potato+mejoberry+fiber. It is very important information for mobile players!
350% melee = 1000 chitin per arthropleura, 500 per scorpion, 400 per spider. THE MACHINE
Passive and friendly unless it has recently killed a bug. After killing a bug it becomes “enraged” and will kill everything in sight. It will have an orange cloud around it if it is mad
For ark mobile users the mega is only in dungeons :/
