Oh great! It's a non violent tame! This is gonna be..AHHHHH!!!!!

Theziosaur: I'm the ultimate harvester!!!
Mantis: Hold my beer bruh.

The mantis can be used to tame other creatures by equipping clubs. The higher the melee of the mantis and the club, the faster you can knock things out

The most versatile of Scorched Earths creatures. A Mantis can hold the roles of multiple different creatures depending on the tools or weapons it has equipped. Picks and Hatchets make them ultimate harvesters, Pikes and Swords can turn them into deadly combat mounts and Clubs can allow them to quickly down creatures for taming, they have no need for Sickles since they can harvest fiber by default. However you'll need to level it's stats depending on the role you plan to assign it to. For example, if you want too make a Mantis a harvester weight and Melee are what you'll want to go for, if you want it to be a expert at combat health and Melee with some stamina in case things go wrong and you have to flee are the way to go since there pounce attack is enough to quickly cover ground and escape a aggressor, and KO'ers really need nothing more then health in case the target is something strong that fights back and some Melee to increase the amount of torpor inflicted by the clubs

Advice:
-Aquire mantis
-Level melee as much as possible
-Equip with ascendant wooden clubs
-Ultimate wyvern knockout machine

Best way to farm an element vein. Get an Ascendant Pickaxe and swing away. Do the outer ones first. Level only melee. Weight doesnt matter because in the end you want more element and can just carry it on your flyer.

They can hold any tool and are the best at gathering almost everything.

1 mantis, 1 Asc hatchet or pick, 1 swamp, endless mushrooms

Farm chitin by killing these guys. Simply kill the mantis then use a sword on its corpse. You will be amazed.

The most valuable pet for mining on element veins in extinction.

If you are taming these for their Eggs, make sure to place them in an area that's "Unknown" (changed to "Wilderness" in recent patch). It'll quadruple your Egg harvest. Just leave render range for 5-10 minuted, come back and collect your eggs. They can also be egg-boosted by a Oviraptor now so make sure one is in range.

BEST GATHERING CREATURE EVER! can use tools (pickaxe, sichle, hatchet, sword, club, pike) to harvest everything u want! u need them to gather in "industrial"-amounts...!!!

Plus one to have Dododex to include this things eggs are used in comfort food for jerboas

As much as I hate to admit seeing as how ankys are my favorite tame, this thing equipped with acended pick gets crystal better than the anky. at least anky still number one in metal.

More of a question. Why can't it fly???

When you tame a Mantis will feed off of meat

Upvot if you think there underestimated in pvp

This creature is in the top 5 dinos for harvesting in 16 different categories and ranks high in several others

if you are trying to get eggs, they need to be left on areas of the map marked as “wilderness”. on the island its herb island. on ragnarok its the area by the hidden scar where the sand and grass meet.

They lay the most eggs in an unknown region. One is in the dessert near the blue obby.
