What are tips for allosaurus? Tips and strategies for allosaurus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
I know a lot of people say to just skip to rex but these things are actually really fun to use, especially in small packs… and if you are able to get a complete pack (15) then you’re practically unstoppable and can even take on gigas and titanos with ease (however if you get more than 15 they’ll split off and form different packs, they’ll also do that if some allos fail to follow the leader and fall behind)
If you want to take them, then it’s best to make a trap. Mine has a stone base of 3 by 4 and with doorframes going up by 3 with a wooden ramp reaching the top. You get them to chase a fast mount that can either fit through the doorframe or can fly, I’d recommend a pteranodon for this. You get them to chase you up the ramp and they get stuck inside so you can tranq them. You can also use this to separate the low levels from the high levels so you can get rid of the low levels. You can mark your trap a little smaller if you’d like. The trap can also be used many times, it can trap anything that isn’t small enough to fit through a doorframe and anything smaller than a spino
I find it quite amazing that wild Allos will run U down & try to kill U, no matter how fast U think U are but once tamed they are super S-L-O-W at least until U dump a bunch of points into speed.
But overall..One of the best tames in the game!!!
totally underrated mounts. they're great for travel; i recommend taking 2 or 3 of them and riding one with the others set to follow. most stuff won't attack you and anything that does will have multiple allos on it pretty quickly! i like to ride one and have the others carry materials as i collect them
There’s a place near the tundra, and tons of carnivores spawn there. These are easy to find in that area.
this dude can track you all the way back to your base!
Once I found a level 150 allo close to my base so I left it alone. I was finally a high enough level to tame it but when I found it it was at only 100 health so I lured it into my raft trap and put it somewhere it couldn’t hurt it self anymore. Once it was healed I tamed it so I now have a 225 allo
If you tame a couple females and a male or two, you don’t need to tame anymore, just breed them and you will soon have an army that can take out anything!
If you encounter more than one, just lead them all to the trap. Knock out lower levels first. Then knock the one you want. They knock fast and have a really low torpor loss so even if they get low you can knock all 3 before they wake up. Only bad side is if all 3 are biting the same area attacking the trap.
In order to tame an allosaurus on most maps, you’ll have to find a pack in the highlands/prairie/flatlands. They always spawn in packs of 3 but more can join the group. I’m a group of 2 or more they will choose the highest level allosaurus as the pack leader which gets a buff. If you want to tame a whole pack, you should make either a large trap or multiple normal traps (which hold up to 2 allos) and knock out the pack leader out last so he loses his buff making him easier to knock out. Then begin taming. Also on a separate note they spawn alone or in groups of 2 in the desert of extinction so keep that in mind. My next tip will be on one of the following: wyvern, phoenix, mantis, thorny dragon, or morellatops
Use long neck or sniper to take out the ones you do not want to tame first
Shits to fight in the snow biome
They are fast. Don’t bother running and if you are low level like me who is only on level 15 then you will get wiped out by one of them and are no match for two or more of them. Also if they spawn near your base just build a new one or wait for them to move because ehen they find a base they will move in and become almost permanent guests
U can use the rex trap to easily trap a allo
If you see one you should probably wait until you die because there can be like 20 of them and don’t test them against their own kind or yours will lose I found out the hard way.

These dudes are best in packs, taming it is a challenge but worth it. You'll need a fast/extreme tank dino. it runs fast so you need to be fast with the narc arowws.
Be careful btw beause they will track you down
