What are tips for dung beetle? Tips and strategies for dung beetle in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
The Dung Beettle is awesome and crucial for fertilizer production. Keep the beetle in the corner of the main area your tribe has the most traffic again. I have my beetle next to our fabricator and Smitty in the corner with the door frame to get in and out to keep it full of poop. As long as there's players around it it produces more fertilizer just like the tames when they drop eggs around more people.
I had one of these little buggers agro and attack a unconscious argentavis
Wtf they eat allosaurus Kibble!!!! Was going to go tame griffin then I stopped at a cave it says I can feed the allo kibble
I was in the south cave when I entered and killed a scorpion I saw a dung beetle and started taming it when I decided to go deeper in the cave and died I now wave hello to him every time I go trying to finally get the hunter artifact fun fact: these guys only take 4 rotten meat so me and my pelagornis were surprised but I never see him again
Use ghillie armor and lay down when taming a dung beetle. It is a better way that having to make bug repellent.
