What is a brontosaurus used for? brontosaurus battling strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
We use this creature as a mobile hunting/taming base.
Just a platform saddle, then some other platforms for Argys and other birds to land on, some crates to carry berries, kibble or material for a quick taming pen.
If taming smaller Dinos, also build ramps for them to get up or set the bronto on follow and carry your tame home with a Quetz.
If taming taming bigger creatures, ride them home with the bronto on follow or set your tame on follow and ride the bronto home.
Get a fully imprinted bronto.
Mount a platform saddle on. (Recommend a ramshackle or higher)
Mount it with 6 cannons (3 on both sides left and right)
Place a catapult at the back
1 ballista on the front, complete a base with an angled roof
Then place 5 autoturrets on the roof (2 each side and one on the middle)
Welcome you have dreadnought
These things are BEASTS at the Lunar biome on genesis. Not only can they harvest a BUNCH of thatch and wood in one swing, but they can harvest almost equally as much stone and crystal from certain “plants” there, as well.
Just be careful not to crash the server like I did...oops.
I tamed him today, just aim for the head with tranq darts or arrows, make sure no brontos are close, my bronto was lvl 1 when i found him and tamed him, while lvl 1 i killed a good level trike with 2 hits brontos are also very good berry gatherers. Also while talking abt bronto type dinos, i tamed a diplodocus in thoughts of it having an attack, i got dissapointed when i saw that he can only push away, like bro, my bronto and ankylo yeet you out of the atmosphere while dealing TONS OF DMG
