Tips & Strategies

Issa weird looking dog who can shoot water and disable defensive turrets
Gets wood as well and some berries and hella thatch
Be careful of mammoth groups surrounding you and killing you. Lost my perfect direwolf to it :(
They are slow and have a small agro radius slowing for a quick get away(assuming that you haven't lost all your stamina
I was dying from the cold already and this thing had to make death even worse. Don’t go near on
I just tamed a couple days ago and let me just say they are best wood gatherer there is like the more wood there in its inventory the less weights it gets.
Must tame your life depends on it
PS: get doed for stone, Anky for metal, mammoth for wood
Doed can be carried by argh right next to some stone and it auto harvest
Don’t build a trap. All you need to do is shoot and run the’er really slow. And eventually they start torpor running so you just chase and shoot them till they fall over. I knocked out a lvl 115 and a lvl 95 that way at the same time Cause they both agrode on me. I probably should have killed one first.
If u find them on the border of the snow on the west carefull as loads of rexes and raptors and other fatal mobs spawn there
IMPORTANT!!!
If you are playing hard/casual like me and want to tame a level 260-300 mammoth follow the following CAREFULLY!
Before I knew this technique I was stuck trying to tame a level 260 mammoth for hours, I was feeding it carrots and it was only going up by 0.2% each feed. It took me 3 real hours for it to reach 30% so I killed it.
— Long story short I used the following technique to tame a 290 mammoth with 100% taming effectiveness in under 1 minute.
1: Do south cave to get soothing balm.
2: Make 6 raptor kibble(It’s favorite)
3: Build a 4x4 trap
4: Bring hide bed
Trap it, sleep, feed it balm first, then kibble.
BAMM!!! Done in under a minute. ⇡Vote!!!
Build a raft with about 9 or so foundations/ ceiling and put Walls on the perimeter and ramps in the front and put large storage boxes along the walls and go to the swamp with a buddy and just sit on the mammoth on the front of the raft and swing away. Best wood/thatch/shroom farm ever
When knocked out, make sure you don’t let anything
attack it. That happened to me an took four hours to tame.
