Tips & Strategies
If you want the stuff from their dams...don't tame them cause they won't build any more dams!
Be warned!! I’ve seen 2-3 of these take on a Spino and kill it!
Do not leave unattended the torpor goes down at a monsterous rate
These things are amazing! If you find a wild one, then that’s great because you can raid it’s dam for some cementing paste. Now, if you tame one, the beaver sadly won’t make any dams. But, you can now harvest a bunch of wood with it if you put it on wandering or use a saddle. If you think it’s a bit dangerous running on the ground, let me introduce you to one of the greatest things in this game for gathering, auto-harvest. Just get an argentavis and it’s saddle, grab a tamed beaver, and go up to a tree and let the beaver hit it. ( Put on wandering for the beaver for it to work) This is way safer than being on the ground. To get way more wood, put some levels into melee and even weight if you want to. Auto-harvest also works with ankylosaurus and doedicurus.
My last tip was on the ichthyosaurus

THESE SPAWN IN ASGARD ON FJORDUR!!!
Strong as hell, especially in packs. Don't put such nice things in your dam if you don't want me to raid it. Jerks.
If you happen to spot our home,
You'd better leave it alone.
We hold our stuff dear,
So you're not welcome here.
We'll bite you down to the bone.
One of the hardest limericks I've ever written. If only it had a duck bill and a fedora...

Step 1 find a dam
Step 2 grab all the cementing paste ( useful for later )
Step 3 trap or take castaroides with argenttavis or a trap
Step 4 knock unconscious and feed
Step 5 use the cementing paste and other materials for saddle
Step 6 tame and ride
Step 7 hit a tree and get tons-o-wood
Step 8 your welcome 👍
There is in fact a slot limit! All dinos have 300 slots available
These guys are persistent. I stole some mushrooms, and I ran to my base. Ten minutes later I look outside and its standing outside my door...
Taming these takes so ‘dam’ long
How to VERY easily tame Beavers (or any medium dinos with high torpor) on single player :
Step 1: Build a 4x4 trap with 2 high walls built with door frames (add ramps on one side if you don’t have an argy)
Step 2: Carry one with an argy or lure it into the trap with aggro if you don’t have an argy
Step 3: Leave it there but don’t go out too far so it won’t despawn, wait for night, put sleeping bag down and sleep for 4 hours. This step is to drain it’s food.
Step 4: Knock it out with tranqs and feed it berries or carrots (you can get plenty with a trike or stego, if not then parasaur is also good)
Step 5: Enjoy having a beaver then cry that you need to be level 61 to make a saddle for it…
Pros: Insanely fast starve tame method, doesn’t use any narcs of any kind for a level 145, doesn’t reduce much taming efficiency like the old starve tame method where you have to knock it out THEN let it starve, almost always gets 80-90% taming effectiveness.
Cons: Have to be in the area for a long while so it won’t despawn and wait for night time, it eats a lot and if you don’t check on it, it will eat everything you put in if you wanted to save stuff like crops or prime meats, you have to trap it for it to starve so will cost a lot of building mats to start.
