Tips & Strategies
Valguero aberrant area, specifically in the radiation zone now spawns aberrant versions of these guys.
Tame every one of these you see regardless of level. Up only melee and maybe some health. Once you have 20-30 whistle for them to follow you and attack your target. Hit a rex, bronto, or literally anything that can die once and watch as your hurricane of teeth tears it apart.
If you knock this monster out with your fists and tame it with narcoberries and cooked fish meat, you are slightly above average.
Best tame for the time and narcotics. I have about 20 of these above lvl 200 defend my base.. They shred people along with my turrets. I also raid with 10+ of them. They make shooting at me impossible as they swarm people not their mounts. Use the spyglass to scope dinos or people and whistle attack target. It is an invaluable sniper tool.
P.S. Keep them close to your fabricator and smithy to level faster.
For all you beginners out there do not just randomly attack these guys and expect a easy fight once you hit one a whole army will go after you killing you and probably your take you brought with you. Up so beginners can see.
These things are OP! If you tame a high level one they make an amazing shoulder pet (surpassed only by ferox I would say). Mine does like 250 dmg a bite and it works well if you have an aviary of them. If this helps, please up!!
Get a few tranq arrows, and snipe it while it's in the air and aim for the head and fire once or twice. Then feed it 2 meat and narcotics if you need to do other things. But I used my fists so it was unconscious.
player attacks one of them (rookie mistake💀💀)(new player behavior 💀💀💀💀💀)
Make sure you have a spear ready when taming, I got killed by its pack members. And then they killed it when it tamed
I went to raid a base with 4 buddies, a rex, 3 carnos, and a bronto with a platform saddle and cannons. All we heard was a whistle and i swear about 50 of these little devil's swarmed the whole group, killing everyone in the group and one carno, the turrets shredded everything else, but the rex must have ran off and we never got a death message so its still out there in the jungle.
