What is a mammoth used for? mammoth utility tips and strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Castoroids are just trash against these not only do they spawn a lot more they are just have wayyy better stats than castoroids the weight levelling is a lot higher it has a lot bigger attack radius more gathering capacity and even without the utility the mammoth is simply also just a powerful mount that can quiet easily defend itself for anyone else thinking don't search for castoroids just get a high level mammoth fly over the north zone and they also spawn in groups of 3 so much higher chance to get better lvls I have officially become a beaver hater after taming this
i HATE castorides, i’ll always go for a mammoth, first time i tamed a castoride she ended up not being relevant or needed watsoever, (she was not a B O N D). second time i tamed one my monkey, Macaque was killed. LITERAL DESPAIR
also, for me, they don’t harvest that much wood and even if they do, they weighed down by it.
i vote (love) mammoths.
So when I learned that you get rare mushrooms while using the mammoth in the swamp trees.I was excited but the swamp is a place full of pretty dangerous creatures.So I brought backup just incase and well my backup was a theri and a spino.I was riding my mammoth to get the rare mushrooms while I let my theri and my spino to handle all the nasties.And it was a success.I got alot of rare mushrooms,fiber from the theri,and meat from the spino.It was fun.Also I play on mobile btw if anyone's curious
Some people say that because it can carry more wood than the beaver, it's already better than it. Well yes, but actually no. The Beaver still gathers more wood than the mammoth can even if the mammoth can carry a lot more. It's a lot slower to farm wood with a mammoth. Solution? Take the beaver and put the mammoth on follow so you can take both of them for gathering wood. Easy 30k wood per 10 minutes.
