Encounter at night? RUN

How to tame one of these beasts

First:tame an araneo i have written a tip for taming an araneo some days ago so you can get some help

Second : these are only found in clever caves so mount your araneo and go to clever cave dont forget tranq darts not arrows

Third :they sleep in day and then woke up in night so its better to tame them in day

Fourth :craft some doorframes and fences to make trap

Fifth:make trap like this find a megalosaurus and then find a very thin place place fence there and place 2 stone doorframes one at bottom and one at top

Sixth : lure megalosarus in trap it will be busy in breaking the doorframe and on that time you can fire tranq darts on him

Seventh:after their torpor will be high so they will start running so careful of this

Eight: feed its preffered kibble oviraptor kibble or if you dont have oviraptor kibble so then feed it shooting balm and raw prime meat

Boom you have tamed a megalosaurus

Its saddle unlocks at level 57

These creatures are my FAVORITE! Like they are just one of my main Dino’s. They are also the only creatures that can sleep on ark mobile. I’m very proud of ark mobile because I’m so glad that these are easy to tame AND are on caves. If they were on dungeons I would cry. I hope this is helpful. Stay rage at night my friend!🌕

Unmounted Megalosaurus 90% of times use their secondary attack! This bug has not been fixed yet!

These are no joke a level 15 killed my 240 wolf in well under a minute, use extreme caution when around them

When out at night, be sure to take this with a raft or quetzal with platform, so when it is tired, you can get it back to base without it being attacked. Just a tip to ensure that your prized Megalosaurus doesn't die whilst you are out.

So I play mobile single player pretty exclusively, which means I have NO use for a megalo. After playing for a while, I’ve found I’m not happy unless I have one of these things sleeping on my floor. I’m sure they’re useful for night raids, but again, I don’t do that. Have to be honest though, if you decide to ride it around at night, you’ll realize absolutely nothing attacks you or even runs away

In ark mobile they don’t wake up at night while you are taming it up so noobs can see

When taming a Megalosaurus make sure you knock it our first thing in the morning. Do not put Raw meat or Kibble on it inventory right away (let it starve). If you plan to tame a high lvl one make a trap for it and let it starve all day. They wake up at night. No matter how much narcotics you put on this creation it WILL wake up. Do not attack it, wait for it to be day time. Get it unconscious again and wait again for it to starve. Once you reache your starving goal feed it before it gets dark again. Taming isn't hard if you have the time and patience for it. The Megalosaurus sleeps all day and wakes up at night. Have fun taming one!

they can pick up flyers, i guess its good for pvp

Always tame at day ! It’s easier in day than night 🤓!

Extremely good for night raiding, if of course you manage to find one AND tame it

Sorry for this not being much of a tip, but this IS useful for some people to know. The megalosaurus is virtually useless during the day, and is a decent mount when not burdened by debuffs, so don't spend your time trying to tame one unless you really need a mount that won't always be usable. I tamed one and barely use it for those reasons, it just isn't always convenient.

They are at night really good and have a buff but on Day they have to sleep. When u ride them on Day they will lose stamina and torpor is growing fast.

DO NOT TAME CLOSE TO NIGHT TIME! We knocked this guy out with tranq arrows in the early afternoon of the game. He was about a third of the way tamed and had only lost 10 points of consciousness - when he stood up! Legitimately got up and decided to chow down on my Parasaur like it was a chew toy!?!? He woke up and chose violence- he was not going to be tamed today.

Scared the literal crap out of me.

Pet it or draw a mustache on its face and then get the hell out of the cave

Useful tip for everyone: Ark’s day and night cycle is 1 hour in real life (on normal settings).

That means if you shoot the dinosaur right out at 8:30 p.m., it will wake up in real time in one hour at 8:30 p.m. the next day. For each past hour you have to subtract 2 minutes and 30 seconds. Example: you knocked him out at 10:30 p.m. -> he will wake up in 60 minutes - 2,5 - 2,5 = 55 minutes

At level 26, it is the first time that the Megalosaurus needs more than an hour to be tamed.. So be prepared to knock him out twice or three times

When I tried to trap a Megalosaurus,it literally fazed its way through the stone door.(my honest reaction 🤔🤨💀)

This Dino is good for the central cave, no one suspected me it's like a ghillie suit and bug repellent

If you are playing on Ragnarok try to find Megalosaur in/nearby viking bay and in jungle nearby viking bay
