Dododex
ARK: Survival Evolved & Ascended Companion
Tips & Strategies
The only way to tame this badass is by having your character entirely max size all ascendant flak armor and an ascendant assault rifle and fabricated sniper. Next grab your gigantopethicus, hop on equip a bone skull helmet skin on an ascendant riot armor helmet for showoff to the lady and mate them. Don’t watch it gets ugly. After this proceed to approach them during reproduction and don’t comfort the mega but instead SHOOT ITS BLOODY HEAD OFF! Lol this is so messed up and I luv it.
More Megapithecus Encountering Tips
Y'all think I'm good? I got one rex and a spino each does 8500% damage but only has 5k health. Should I breed more?
Heres a tip- if u go into the bosses arena and forcetame it.... you'll be stuck there forever bc the boss gotta die in order for u to leave. :) hit de good button so more peeps can see
Okay. Hear me out. I defeated this on Gamma with 14 rexes, 1 yuty, and 1 daeodon.
The rexes had health between 9k-12k, with melee between 400%-600%. I didn’t have the daeodon doing health, and I didn’t have the yuty doing courage roar.
I only lost 2 Rexes!!!
That just proves how easy this boss is. Up this if you are like me.
For this fight, you will need 19 rexes and one yutyrannus. Portal is situated at the Blue Obelisk Terminal
Artifact of the Brute: 530010
Basiliosaurus and scuba gear needed.
Follow the path to the left every turn, till you end up in a big water chamber with the artifact in the middle
Artifact of the Pack: 685560
Crossbow, grappling hooks, bug repellent, weapons (best place to find megalanias)
Stick to the left every time in the cave, until you approach a small drop with xp book at it. Always stick to the right after that.
Artifact of the Devourer: 140863
Tamed Barryonx, possibly scuba gear, weapons
Follow the path, until you have to go underwater. Swim to the left in the water, then to the right. You will then be led to a massive ravine cavern, with glowing blue crystals on the walls. The artifact is right below you on the very bottom floor. You literally cannot miss it because it is glowing a bright purple.
5 Tribute Items:
Spino sail
Therizino claws
Megalania toxin
Megalodon tooth
Thylacoleo hook claws
Once at the arena, BE CAREFULL AS HELL THAT YOU AND YOUR TAMES DO NOT, NOT, NOT FALL INTO THE HOLE AT THE RIGHT. YOU AND YOUR TAMES WILL DIE IF THEY FALL IN, OR YOU DO. Quicky get all your dinos in the fighting arena, as the boss has knock back damage. Fight at beta difficulty.
Make sure that you move your Rexs or creatures into the trees when you get teleported into the arena. This is to prevent your tames from falling into the hole in the arena, because if they fall they just die, and you lose the saddles and everything. Then you can go up on your yuty or whatever you are riding and you lead the Megapithicus to your tames, then let them go ham on the monkey. The Megapithicus is a glass cannon and anything g with a good saddle and a high health stat can easily destroy it. Just make sure that nothing falls into the death hole and you’ll be fine to actually fight the boss.
The megapithecus has two attacks a direct hit attack and a ranged Boulder attack. The boulder attack can and will kill you off your tame and I figured this out the hard way.so safest thing is to wistle attack Target hope off and have someone roar the Yuri good luck survivors.
For gamma:
12 rex 20k hp 300 melee
Beta :
14 rex 25hp 500 melee 1 yuty
Alpha :
18 rex 25 hp 500 melee 1 yuty 1 health pig
U dont need good saddles trust me the different between primitive and ascendant saddles only 10% damage resistance
Been said to be one of the easiest but yuti and rexs is all you will need. This boss on hard takes us about 4 mins. Surround and start chomping. Debuff with yuti plus buff your rexs.
I recently beat alpha brood mother so now I'm doing alpha monkey, is this easier or harder than brood mother?
For alpha we used 18 rexes 1 pig and a yuty
Rexes: 15k hp 500% melee
Yuty: 20k hp 4k stam
Pig: 19k hp 36k food (feed it kibble it has no eat cooldown!)
Get the yuty to bring the monkey over to where you spawn in the boss arena, heal on the pig and have a mate on a yuty, no Dino's dead ,megapithicus easy.
