Hide: you can never have to much
More Hide Tips
Jerboas give a ton of these but not much meat
The Therizino’s bite attack gives you only hide, no meat.
Use a hatchet or saber early game. In mid game use tickle chickens and rexes. And in end game use gigas or carchas.
Tame a breeding pair of sheep, imprint and let sit in cryo for a few days, throw out dump all points into health then slaughter and harvest with chainsaw endless hide.
You're welcome
Giganotosaurus can gather 28 hide from 1 terror bird, while sabertooth can gather 43 hide from 1 terror bird, also explorer notes says it's the best tame for gathering hide. Sabertooth deserves more stars than giga
A saber tooth may be more efficient per creature but how long it takes to kill a creature matters. In my experience T-Rex and murder-bird. (theri) are ‘the best’ at gathering hide in high volumes. You see a herd of mammoths , they’ll tear your saber to shreds, and it takes 40+ seconds to kill a big one. T-Rex just says “yum!” And murders them all.
If you are low level and want tons of hide... Just kill lots of bronto and use metal hatchet to gether hide
Holy crap killing one jerboa gives you like 100 hide using a sabertooth with 300%+ melee
Metal hatchets are pretty good, but in my world, I have a Therizino that collects hide after killing animals. I think that Therizinos are better at collecting. (You need a saddle)
The rex should me wayyyyy higher
It’s so good for me I’m in easy mode on mobile and it gets 50 per parasaur idk why but parasaurs give tons of hide
