You will see people here recommend a total of 20 dinos which is max, I don't, we all know ark's ark, and the boss glitches that comes with it.

I usually take 9-14 therizinosauruses or rexes (depending on how good saddles I've got, and riding on 1 yuty, making it a total of 10-15 dinos, it takes stress off the game, making it less likely that a glitch will occur, when starting don't mount til you're inside the battlefield, and stand still on the ground when timer hits 0.

All dinos should at minimum be lvl 150 wild perfect tamed dinos, if they got mutations, good, but not necessary, saddles are the most important thing.

Stats, I would say, 50-80k health, rest of points into melee, yuty should have 4k stam, 20k health, some weight sence you'll be riding it, rest into melee.

Enjoy the tek engrams.

Use as many therizinos as you want since it does extra damage to carnivores technically since the therizino is an omnivore which means carnivore and herbivore put together so since the other half is herbivore it should block out that affect I would also recommend pumping damage and health. Thanks for using your time on my tip I hope it helps you beat the boss.

FYI the fire damage is percent of health based, its not reduced by armor or levelling health. In fact, the lower the health the better tbh. Because if you have a massive health pool your pig will struggle with all the health to recover, while if you only level melee the damage done by the fire can be more easily dealt with, and youre less likely to lose rexes/therizins.

How to slay a dragon? Follow these easy steps and you too can have a dragon’s head on your wall!

Step One: You gotta do some artifact hunting. The fight requires Cunning, Immune, Skylord, and Strong, coords are as follows: Cunning: 46.0, 88.2, BRING AN UNDERWATER TAME!!! Immune: 62.6, 37.2, you need a gas mask or you're dead. Skylord: 19.3, 19.0, no tames allowed for this one. Strong: 29.4, 32.0, this is the hardest cave in the game, your best bet is to bring a high level Yuty(at least level 135 when it was wild), make sure you have full flak and guns on you, this ain’t easy.

Step Two(ONLY APPLIES FOR BETA AND ALPHA): Apex Drops. These are pretty self-explanatory, just get up on a glorious murder machine(I recommend Carchas, except for the gigas), the drops are 5 Allo Brains, 5 Basilo Blubber, 1 Giga Heart, 5 Tuso Tentacles, 5 Rex Arms, and 5 Yuty Lungs, this is for Beta, for Alpha, double these, except Rex Arms, you need 15 for Alpha.

Step Three: Who to bring? This set of creatures will be able to take out Alpha Dragon decently well, bring 18 well leveled Theris, put ALL their points into health(stop at 20-25K), and put the rest into Melee, do not take a Theri below level 225 into this fight, and give them all at least 2 sweet veggie cakes. Your other 2 slots will be for support, bring a Yuty(level into health and stamina), none below level 200, DO NOT USE IT TO ATTACK, the Dragon does triple damage to carnivores with its bite. Your other slot can be another Theri(if you have ASE and hate mods for some reason), otherwise, this slot should be filled by a male Deinotherium, IT MUST BE MALE. Males give an attack buff, and females give defense, and it stacks with Yuty’s buff. They all need saddles with at least 60 armor points.

Step Four: The Fight. After yeeting the artifacts and apex drops at the Red Obelisk Terminal, you and your army are in the dragon’s arena, and it’s hot(make sure to bring something to negate the heat), and look to the sky, and hooway you found the dragon, now here’s the Strat: make sure you are on the Yuty or the Deinotherium, whistle your army to passive, and the dragon will summon hostile dimorphodons and pteranodons, use your mount to kill them. The dragon will shoot easy to dodge fireballs at you, make sure your army is following you, or they’re gonna get nuked. Once the dragon lands, let it come to you, the lava rivers are what ruin most fights. Once you don’t have to cross magma to get to the dragon, immediately whistle your army to attack my target. Your army will maul the dragon, and if you are on the Yuty, spam courage roar, if ur on Deinotherium, use the buff roar, and go maul the dragon, ENSURE YOUR YUTY IS ON PASSIVE AND AUTO COURAGE, if not it’ll run to bite the dragon’s knees, and the dragon will eat it. On the Deino, you can actually fight the dragon. The millisecond the dragon starts flying, whistle passive, so ur tames stay in this life. Watch out for the dragon’s fire breath, it takes away 20% of any tame’s hp. Rinse and repeat, and bam, the dragon is dead. Now you too can thrill the ladies with an authentic Dragon Head(at least until Tek Cave)

Dragon Hp:

Gamma: 432k

Beta: 864k

Alpha: 1.26M
