What is a megalosaurus used for? megalosaurus battling strategies in ARK: Survival Evolved.
Great for aberration since they don't take radiation damage
The Grizzly bears of Ark on the island. These dinosaurs may be hard to find on moblie devices, on moblie this thing is only found sleeping in caves. Cave of the clever is the most frequent spawn of this guy. DO NOT TAME AT DARK: they are twice as fast and can murder mounts as fast as a arthropluera ( the giant centipede ) also be careful as while its sleeping, it may look like a rock, make sure not to jump on a β rock β with a few tufts of fur.
Note: the normal Megalosaurus does fall asleep on Aberration, while the aberrant one does not. I thought that the normal one wouldnβt fall asleep either, but then I tested that theory...
We need a coffe update for this thing
These guys are a must-have in Aberration; they are always awake (at least in the bioluminescent area), and thus always have their night buff. Of course, this also means you must always be wary of wild ones while in their territory.
they can pick up flyers, i guess its good for pvp
Unmounted Megalosaurus 90% of times use their secondary attack! This bug has not been fixed yet!
At night time with their boost itβs either on par or better than a Rex. These things are the dangerous little brother of the giga...
Big guy
Donβt mess with him if you are new
Donβt mess with him if you are new
Remember that it has to go to sleep from time to time so donβt go into a raid or massive fight with it until you check the time when it needs to sleep you can let it sleep whenever you want so you donβt have to always wait for the timer
Higher melee than a Rex but sleeps during daylight best thing to do is use it at night in the day it sleeps and when you wake it up it is slow and will eventually force its self asleep
The devs should add a command for singleplayers that the Megalosaurus can grab creatures on itβs own without attacking them so the player can knock the dinosaur out easily in front of him (through a command like turret mode on the chalicotherium)
Tame him. He is very strong at night. Gool lvl mega can defeat Rex at night
This is great for taming arthropleuras firstly u pick up the arthro then passive tame it dont worry every single creature on the center cave wont attack u while riding it!!

Really good for going to the rockdrake den and getting eggs
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.
If you are playing on abberation, this creature is a great tame as they will always have the night buff. These are great mounts if you can find a high level breeding pair.
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.
Extremely good for night raiding, if of course you manage to find one AND tame it
