Keep in mind they are fast. Not aggressive . Also, the females do not collect thatch.

Great at flying; most notable individual in species is known as "Rudolph"

Male megaloceros have a bleed effect when they attack which can be very helpful in PvP and when taking down larger dinos.

They are very good combat and transport mounts. The males can attack, which allows them to gather thatch very efficiently. The females have no attack, but are a little faster, as there are no horns to weigh them down. There's also something satisfying about riding a moose. WHEEEEEEEEEE

Grandma got ran over by a Megaloceros
Walking home from our house Christmas Eve...

Great for thatch, I have a level 181 and about 7 high level terror birds approached him, he makes it look like art when smiting them back to hell.

Best in the game to obtain thatch. Takes 4 minutes to get a few thousand and its better than a bronto as it is able to move at a decent speed.

WARNING if they are provoked provided they will rise up and smite all who dare to attack with its mighty and only run away ability

You can find these in the snow biome, and the Redwood forest.

These do NOT have any sort of bleed effect..vote up to prevent trolling

They are very fast once taken damage from so try to hit them when they are facing a wall. If there is no walll nearby, bola is best solution.

Please note that females do not attck AT ALL. Boost speed, stam and weight and theyre the best mule ever though...

The megaloceros is an excellent mount to ride into the caves , because it's able to tank damage from airborne creatures .

Don’t jump from high places as appealing as it seems because it will die! Please share to save many megaloceros lives.

Good for getting the thatch to crank out those costly gates

Probably the most majestic creature of ARK. If you tame one you'll love that thing.

My favorite cave mount. I have been breeding them for months, my 776 melee outputs as much damage as a wyvern bite at 500 melee, plus bleed. Put an MC or better saddle on one and it will wreck any cave. They absorb otherwise rider inflicted damage, they can jump to clear gaps, they're fast, they output massive damage, and can hit more than one target at once with their attack. What's not to love? (Low health and weight which also makes them painstaking in baby stage)

To tame a Megaloceros, I would try to tame an Argentavis and carry it to somewhere warm. Assuming you have plenty of Mejoberries from any berry collector, or even by hand, or you could have Dimorphodon kibble you can begin taming. I would suggest using a bola, because these guys like to run. With a few tranquil arrows to their head they would be out quick. These guys don't usually need much narcotics. The megaloceros is amazing at collecting thatch, and they have a bleed effect, which is great for pvp and killing dinos.

Surprisingly good fighters, my rank 10 Mega is taking down carnos and argies on death island, and escaping with barely a scratch. I suggest upgrading health stamina and speed to maximize survivability.

They can not go all the way through but if you bring a male with about 4k health and 300+ melee damage you can bring this in CP cave and it will wreck everything
