How do I kill a megalosaurus? megalosaurus battling strategies in ARK: Survival Evolved.
They will knock you off your mount if you look at them too closely. (They're very self-conscious.)
Only found one on ragnarok lvl 50 by the ribcage cave at viking bay
If you see something that looks like a rock but not quite, ignore it. For your own sake ignore it. I ran too close to one and next thing I know me and my parasaur have four on our ass.
So I jumped on the furry rock and landed on its head and it was just spinning and spinning until I got off of its head :>
When they sleep just remain calm don’t wake them they are like cats fine when asleep but when awake are savages they are always awake if they are aberrant variant so all you need includes bola a friend and speed so you can BOLA YOUR TRIBEMATE AND RUN if you miss just make sure you have a higher speed stat as ark once told me
You do not need to be faster than the dinos only your friends
On Lost Island, these guys also spawn outside of caves! I saw one in the snow biome near the wyvern trench.
Beware, when sleeping; they can look like rocks. I dont suggest jumping on them. So before you jump on a „rock” remember to take a good look at it to make sure its not a megalosaurus.
If you use biotoxin arrows it takes 5 don't forget to ride a cave creature it won't agro when near until you shoot it to tame it then be on a ledg with it bellow you makes it easy to tame
First one I ever saw was a lvl 20ish in Hunter Cave. Wiki does not reflect that as a spawn zone.
You can find them sleeping in the cave close to the volcano i found three of them
Where to find them on ark mobile
It’s very rare, but I think they spawn in Vikings bay on ragnarok, because I was killed by one in that little bone thingy
See a light brown fuzzy looking rock?
Thats a sleeping Megalosaurus.
Damages wood structures. App is wrong. Use a stone taming pen.
This thing is rare so don’t try finding one but I just found one in the central cave so go and look there.
Is it just me or do they just pickup your Dino’s and one shot them?
Be careful in caves....I swiped it with my sword thinking it was a carcass but it was sleep on the floor. Kept chopping and survived but yeah...watch it
Wild:megalosaurus noctusesnis is a fiercesome theropod capable of grabbing humans with its jaws, mostly found near the 2 volcanos in the cave known as “middle chamber” in the water place they mostly sleep during the day but savage during the night,not recommended to fight one without a tame. tamed:megalosaurus is quite hard to tame during the night so it’s recommended to tame in the day time, tranq darts are very effective and raw meat will work fine, bring raw prime meat tho as it can wake up, when tamed megalosaurus is excellent for the night of ark as its very dark and this can help u defend against other creatures, they are also ignored by everything litteraly
Are these things found in the same cave as that artho/centipede creature?
So I was running around on my 300% speed Mikkalo source when I see something out of the corner of my eye and when I look…. I saw a giga is my stupid little mind I thought I could take it down by out running it… RIP fluff-rock
