What is a gigantopithecus used for? gigantopithecus battling strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
On Xbox, left tab throws you (It's like a spear, the longer you hold down the harder it throws, but there is a max), the other special attack, what you would use for crouching, is what you use to pick up only fiber, and regular attack only picks up berries. It can sprint, swim fast, and jump. Best of all it can wear hats. I equipped my hat with a cowboy hat skin, and it looks hilarious.
Ark's very own king Kong. You looking to cave dive, take this awesome tame with you. one or two should do, accompanied with a pack of dire wolf's, then your practically unstoppable. These tame has a knock back attack allowing you to throw in more hit than your nemesis and hey not to ignore their high damage and high hp, all this coupled with extra amor gotten from their helmet, They are basically waking bulwarks.
