What are tips for megalosaurus? Tips and strategies for megalosaurus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
If you see one awake jump into water, they are very slow swimmers and can’t attack in water, just be careful cave waters always have a lot of piranhas and often sarcos too
The cave under Viking Bay on Ragnarok you can use wyverns. As soon as night hits, stand on wyvern and shoot the Megalosaurus hop off and run underneath your wyvern. They don't take many darts and won't be able to attack you underneath your wyvern. Easy work!
Hit it with a club and it should be knocked out upvote for people to see this
Tame it with a bulbdog featherlight glowertail or shinehorn on your shoulder these mf will never wake up
It’s a pain only at night and plz have a trap or at least pillars to separate you from it
ABBERATION: Since the map is underground they don’t not sleep and spawn like crazy in the blue!! You might get lucky and spot one outside of blue entrance but other than that, HAZMAT SUIT REQUIRED to avoid hallucinogens. Recommend building pin with stone dino gates on each side enclosed with 3 stone door frames long and 3 high. If using a ravager be careful because a mega can pull you off tame. Place a large bear trap in the center of pin, agro the mega onto trap and close gates! Ko with your choose of tranq and BOOM she or he’s down. Ovis spawn like crazy so raw mutton is excellent. Hope this helps guys, stay alive survivors!!
A mist have on abberation!It will only be in his"night mode" and he will be extremly strong!
Taming this is impossible with out a trap. I would use a 2x2 ramp with doorframe and these are the rexes of aberration
Try killing them with the Rex when that's a really high level
For mobile players check the artifact of the clever cave
It doesn't take 2-5 tranq darts. For my level 4 knockout megalosaurus it took atleast 8
I went into the middle chamber thinking it would be easy as pie, encountered one of these guys along with about 10 arthros, on my sp max level in wild is 30, my lvl 61 wolf and I didn’t stand a chance. My flak all broke, my wolf nearly died, had to sprint out of there oml. Be prepared!! Maybe it’s coz my armour was nearly broken anyway but either way, my op wolf would have died. Be careful, if you think you’ll encounter them, do it in the Daytime!!! They’re debuffed during daytime, but super powerful at night!!
Watch this thing sleep then tranq yourself and sleep with it I care you #megalosaurus sleep time!I used commands to spawn this thing then settargetdinocolor 5 1 and 1 14 and backed away and it curled up and went to sleep so I spawned a yeti and watched the megal 1tap it
Dododex is completely wrong for the amount of food and starve timer for megalos
Bring a pachyrhino
The megalosaurus is on the center map
At the center cave up on the 2. Floor by the lake with the river going out the cave
I have seen 4 difrent mega up there
Shoot him with tranqs as soon as he wakes up at night,its best that way if youre taming a high lvl one,that way you only need to put him down twice. Starve it depending on the food youre feeding it, cause if you feed him and he wakes up (20:30)you lose all taming progress. So starve him,the second time it wakes up and you tranq him he will have enough hunger to eat all of the kibble at once and tames in 1 min. The caves are dangerous so bring a friend and the best cave for finding him is the Grave of Tyrants in Schorched Earth. Google the rest.
It can not be carried by Wyverns!
