These things (if have enough dmg and hp) can kill a mammoth, direwolf pack (stay away from cliffs direwolf knockback daeodons), sabertooth, therizino, rex, etc. Had 2 and they killed the following: direwolf pack of 5, mammoth, actually helped more than my yutyrannus with alphas, wooly rhino. Note this was .6 difficulty (highest level is near 100), they were low and food so no healing, low levels (about 20 and 13 when tamed). Now I was hunting because they were hungry. Almost lost them due to them being neutral and demolishing everything near the swamp. They are also tank (the level is now lvl 63 with about 6k hp). I HIGHLY recommend these guys.
Theyre very usefull for healing ur dinos but they use alot of food while doing so, so heres a tipp: fill a feedingtroth full of meat, go out of render distance for 15-30 seconds and go back, the daeodon shouldve eaten all the meat or went back to full hunger. I always use them after battles or bosses to heal, you can also use them in bosses but its better if theres a tribemate ridding it but u can also use them solo if your carefull.
For those wondering which meat is the best this is what I found out
Raw meat: 10 food. Cook meat: 25 food
Cook/raw prime meat: 50 food
Cook/raw mutton meat: 50 food
Raw fish: 5 food. Cook fish: 12 food
It can eat kibbles as well
Basic/simple/regular: 95 food
Superior and higher : 85 food
I've tested the number over and over it's accurate as I can get it. You're welcome to test it yourself as well but these are my results.
