ARK: Survival Evolved & Ascended Companion
Tips & Strategies

If you’re new to the game don’t even TRY taming a para, these guys are just as easy to tame as paras and 10x better. They have infinite stamina in galloping mode and harvest plants like a BEAST, they’re decently fast, decently strong, and have very good weight (low level iguanodons have bad stats, but higher level ones have insanely good weight and health) I don’t even use paras anymore, literally the only thing that Para does better than iguanodon is swim

A must tame, why?
It's easy. Bola, tranq arrows and berries.
Best travel mount: Unlimited stamina and you can improve movement speed. Pump 10 levels into speed and this thing zooms everywhere!
Fairly tanky: It can take a beating meaning better survival chance but also good for taming aggressive creatures.
You can shoot while riding: Making taming safer and easier. Anything tries to run away they have no chance.
Berry Gathering: Good for taming or just eating.
Seeding: Good for starting a small farm of your choice.
They can fight back, fending off Dilos, raptors, even Baryonx and Sarcos.
They can jump: Good for clearing obsticals but also getting on high rocks as a vantage point to tranq out creatures such as Carnos.
They're fast swimmers: Not something you want to take in the ocean but fast enough to cross small lakes and rivers and fast enough to outrun Jellyfish. Mine can outswim a Megeladon lol.
Kibble: They're eggs make decwnt kibble which in turn can help tame decent mounts.
Basically they're awesome!
