Fists can easily knock a Dilo out. There spit can help you hunt or defend you from other survivors. In groups of 3 or more they are dangerous.

Put a bunch of stone on them and put them on your roof on aggressive and you have a spit turret

A good first defensive game. Their acid attack slows all dinosaurs and can be a lifesaver early to mid game.

Alone not very affective but I once had a group of 7 and they took out a carno with easy as well as other aggressive creatures

These have some properties that made them great as a first tame:

1. They are EVERYWHERE - you can get yourself a couple of these and no dino will be a match to you, except Theri, that thing will wreck all of you, recommend getting at least 10 to take it out.

2. They are easy to tame - if yours are being slaughtered, they can at least buy you time to run away and you can recruit some new ones right away.

3. They spit blinding poison - I think the poison affect all dino, even the big one, so not only it will weaken your enemy and make it more vulnerable, but in case they are not winning, you still have time to run away.

This is a very over looked tame. I have a pack of 10 and they were all tamed at 150s. Set them all on a lvl 105 rex to actually get them killed to decrease my tame cap. And they murdered the rex lol

You can't ride them, you can't use ANY acccessories on them, they can't carry much, and they don't deal much damage. I wish ark could give them a meatpack or something, like how dodos have decimation bit and gathering bit.

They are great in numbers and amazing for range and slowing dinosaurs down

These are beefy bois and take 2 to 3 meat to tame I personally have 6 of the bad boys and the shred things almost immediately depending on the level
