THE BEST ANIMAL IN THE GAME!!! I’ve tamed every single other Dino I have using this guy!!! Knock them out and keep them under by harvesting Marco berries right then and there. Lvl up melee to knock out a lvl 150 Rex by kicking in the face before it’s roaring animation is even finished! Lvl speed to outrun raptors, and knock out a raptor before it even pounces! Keep quick dropping torpor Dino’s like Theriz and pachyrino under with berry harvesting (scorpion and frog can’t do this) lasso and craft narcotic from the saddle! Good swimmer and amazing jumper! Not to mention the thrill of finding the unicorn variant! A must have tame early game! (Funnest passive tame as well)
They are easy to tame at the Ragnarok highlands. As they can farm large amount of berries, can craft narcos in their inventory, can shot while riding it and have a strong topor-attack they are great taming assists. A saddled one with 2k+ hp, 2500+ sta and 500%+ dmg unskilled/born stats can easy knock out high rexes and other stuff. If the target run away you can easy follow and shot more tranqs. They have a high hp-regen and with full imprint they can get 314% speed. That is like a wyver fly and enough to run away even from alpha rex. If you cant tame a wild, maybe another player tried and failed. You need to knock it out to reset a failed taming.
I just tamed this beast on mobile it is awesome! Her name is Jacky and has been really good to me because this thing has really good stamina and it can knock stuff out and even climb rocks that the player couldn’t and it can even harvest berry’s (very good narcotic harvester)! I would recommend taming one of these in the early stage of your world
