Tips & Strategies

Today I am finishing my base on a bronto. I will describe it. It will be two stories tall and the back will have a Dino gate for my Argy and pterodons. First floor will have a bed and stuff for me, while the second floor will be for my flying tames. I will have three up there. A tapejara, a pterodon, and an Argie. -Nova Charm
More Brontosaurus Utility Tips
Just found out something really useful about Brontos! You can use them to transport goods a long way, but sometimes you have more than the bronto can carry, so, if you pack your resources on something like a high level parasaur or iguanodon, and put it on the platform saddle, it only takes the Dinos drag weight, not resource weight, allowing you to carry tons of materials at half the weight!
Who else suffers fall damage from getting down a bronto? If you do I found a good way to get off the bronto : go to the tip of its head then feed it a berry, once it lowers its head just casually walk off and sleep good tonight knowing you didnβt break your legs getting off a bronto(hope this tip helped and have a good day :)
By far the best berry gathering dino that has ever existed!!
Brontosauruses are amazing creatures! Here are the reasons why:
1. It has enormous weight and can carry creatures that have supplies to add almost no weight.
2. It can have a huge platform saddle, allowing you to have a small portable base for resource runs or base raiding.
3. It is a complete tank and can survive multiple Rexes for minutes.
Thatβs all. π
Just watched a 2 brontos brutally kill a t-rex and then proceed to get killed by 1 raptor because it couldnβt hit it
Rip bronto
their tail is a good ride to sit on when you're bored
When riding bring a parachute or 2

Single player uses:
1. Mobile base: Brontosaurus has a pretty big platform saddle, you can literally just live on their back aside from getting vegetable crops. They're good on big maps like ragnarok if you can't decide where to live.
2. Berry gatherer: It has the most efficient gathering rate, just keep in mind it's slower than molasses.
3. Dino protector: Brontos have a rather low damage output for their size, but male up for it with high knockback and a massive AOE.
climb down it's tail, don't jump off
