Tips & Strategies

Castorides are an really strong dinosaur type , i love them , today i found a 145 lvl (i play on medium) and i knocked it out, heres how:
I had 1 bola and an ascendant bow with 20 tranq arrows,
Step 1 : run and get free hits (just to make sure it doesnt run after the bola)
Step 2 : bola it
Step 3 : Shoot it until it goes down it took 8 arrows for my ascendant bow with 284 damage.
Ok so i made a mistake i should have made kibble and got a soothing balm but i dont have a raptor for a cave or i dont have a gallimimus soooo yeah i gotta wait 3 hours for this thing (1.2% with 100% taming effectiveness and carrots..) Basically when you want to tame an castorides
Dont forget,
Kibble ( if its an high level )
Soothing balm ( if its an high level )
Bio Toxin/Narcotic/Narco Berries (I got around 70 biotoxic 80 narcotic and 1200 narcoberries for my own castorides and i had to use all)
Oh and if you dont have a ascendant bow/rifle use a longneck with darts it takes around 20 darts for 150

If you want to raid the damage il use an argy to lift them in the air and pick them of 1 by 1 so less threats
Outstanding wood collectors. Mine has 770 weight and can carry 3K wood plus rider. Holds wood at 1/5 weight and can be used as mobile smithy. This teamed with a doed can construct a base in minutes. Must have.
I once got killed by these raiding their dam...That was the start of a chain kill
I still didn't get back my stuff
