If its attacking any bugs around it it will atack you after its done with the bugs and they are pretty powerful happened to me
The number of tranq arrows that the app says you need to knock one out is wrong (at least for crossbows). It said I needed about 52 arrows for a level 120 and I ended up using way more than that. Also no it wasnt in bug rage mode so it couldnt have been the damage resistance
This thing get a really good bug buff it killed my 120 mantis
A really easy trap to make is using three stone dino gateways and two gates. If you put them down in a line, placing the gates on each end, so the Megatherium can fit in the middle, it makes for a great and (relatively) cheap trap.
Don’t try to knock it out near insects, including your own. If gets a huge buff when in combat around bugs so your tranqs will hardly work
It killed me for riding my dinosaur
Crystal isles' Crystal Wyverns CAN-NOT carry.
When you raise a megatherium you can reach 100% imprinted when it’s only 60% matured.
He is amazing at harvesting thatch and chitin. Also seems great for travel considering mostly all dinos ignore him. I travelled through the redwoods no problem, terrorbirds ignored him, carnos ignored him. I accidently bumped into a bear but thats all that attacked me. AMAZING TAME! highly recommend this big lovable creature
My hate for these guys is immeasurable and my day is ruined.
Here I was chilling on a rock right outside my base with my sweet Jerboa on my shoulder. I had tamed this jerboa because I saw it roaming around alone as a baby. And I named it Poor Baby because it didn’t have a mom. I decided I’d be its mom. So anyways we’re just chilling on a rock, and my dumb self thinking these mesotheliomas weren’t aggressive was SHOCKED when one walked by and slapped me and Poor Baby into another time zone. Because it saw a BUG. An oil jug bug to be exact. We both died. RIP Poor Baby!
