If you see this bad boy do not engage it if you do try using a shield or a tamed carnivore
These guys are one heck of an escort. They reflect damage and will stop most pack creatures in their tracks, with the obvious exception being my Allosaurs. If you've ever liked using the Thorns enchantment in Minecraft, consider these guys the embodiment of Thorns III on all armor pieces.
Stay away from these turds they will murder your Rex's I lost a lv 50 to one in seconds
Short-tempered. Better to have someone like Reaper when killing these, as Reaper takes little damage from attacks due to it not being exposed to light. Being around these too long will agro them, try not to stay round Kentro for too long when of weak land dino.
Easy to tame on foot assuming you're in a relatively safe area. Shoot them in face with tranq arrows and when they start to try and hit you can just jump backwards and be missed completely.
Careful when encountering, lost my lvl 130 sabertooth to a lvl 45 when it impaled it
Do not aggro these guys with a small tame like raptor it can and will carry your tame and attack you at the same time.
Even that they don't take THAT much to knock out, they take to tame longer than brontos...
Not hard tame if you don't mind a few spikes in your face..
140 went running away from me while I was on spike just kept shooting, time you shots and have health brew...
Says sweet cakes work. It's a lie. Used 21 kibble and made 39 cakes for a 135 and it's not eating. Waste of kibble
Makes for a great Mobile seat. Your friends will like it.
Nothing better that a spike wall that has spikes coming from it shoulders and is living.
These animals are very territorial so if you don’t want to see yourself being stuck in a spike stay away there Agron range is very small
Whatch out they are aggressive,but with a very small agro range (prob the size of a therzys agro) and if you are riding a parasuar in the begging of playing or a trike They can knock you off the dino and put it in its spikes where it cant move or fight back. I have lost lots of dinos because when riding parasuars and others you usually cant see them they are so small. BE AWARE-rip 250 tek parasuar
Don’t encounter these when you are a low level or with animals. You will regret it.
Sadly I have lost 7 flying animals just by landing near them.
