Once tamed, elephants can share a buff with other allied dinos. A male gives 15% attack, but if there is more than 1 male elephant it won't work. Each female gives 5% resistance, capping at 15% with 3 females.

I used these things for the overseer i spent hours breeding only to find out they couldn’t even fit in the cave but I didn’t want all that time to go to waste so I used admin commands and eventually i had 8/10 deinotheriums and only 3 came into the boss while the others just stayed behind it was really buggy but luckily I pulled through and ascended

Would not recommend using for the boss though theris or rexes would be better maybe even chalicos

Does buff other animals 15%melee

So I’ve been taking these all day. Very fun. Very annoying.

Steps 1:Single out you’re Deino. Killing others or leading it away will do.

Step 2: stand at least 10 feet away any closer will aggro.

Step 3: This is the tricky part. It will be wiggling its ears most of the time, but it needs to go through the process. Once it shakes its head, wags its trunk and THEN wiggles its ears, it is safe to walk under. It will take the beer itself from last slot.

Step 4: MOVE. The moment it grabs the beer, get out of the way. Repeat this cycle and you’ll successfully have your Deino.

Warnings: It will aggro on your Dino if it’s too close. Its first attack will stun you, so be ready. After the stun, you have slow movement speed. Possible bug but one broke my entire armor set. So careful for that as well. Good Luck!

Besides being a great tank and (emotional) support creature, they're also gatherers. They can gather fiber, berries, thatch, wood (same gathering capabilities and weight reduction like the mammoth, only with more weight), meat and hide.

Why does a strictly herbivorous elephant gather meat?

...good question

Feed a bunch of stimberries for tons of feces just like phiomia

A better mammoth for holding wood usally about 4-4.5k is enough for inventory cap if you keep the thatch use theri with power points to father it then transfer it over the Dein and if you have the dreadmare black whole the inventory cap Dein and there ya go 25-30k wood pretty darn fast even on 1x hope it helps.you get wood for those crazy wood expensive deintherium saddles!

These guys are amazing for wood farming, with better weight than the mammoth and with their trunk swipe they can easily gather 220+ wood per tree.

It can do a stomping attack while moving forward, sideways, or backward
