There not the early game Dino’s but one of the better mid to mid game tames that can actually carry on into the endgame it’s these guys are really really good in their little niche that they filled now their niche they fill in the mid game when you get them is so much bigger than in late games and late games you only need them for one specific thing but if you can get these guys right around the same time that you get a thylacoleo or something like that you can take these guys and you can have fun you can ride around with them they can be your little buddy Nick in it you can take it you can go out and you can get a whole bunch of Chitin harvest up a bunch of stuff because they will harvest just about anything that you can point them at I mean seriously if you can shake a stick at it they’ll be able to harvest it it’s really effective plus they are also one of the better ways of actually getting into the swamp game especially now that you have cryopods, Yes, Cryopods are a game changer for these guys they took something that was already pretty decent and they made it -WOW- alright they just did alright 😂 and were talking about megatheriums ALRIGHT IM KINDA GETTING BORED AND WANNA POST THIS NOW- so ima just say one more fact— If they eat and kill bugs they get this like rage thing witch makes them stronger and stuff and there REALLY good at the broodmother boss fight :)

More Megatherium Utility Tips
Think of your favorite tame... that was cute. Introducing you to your new favorite tame, GOD... I mean megatherium. Sorry, with one kill of a bug they are very hard to tell apart. You remember waking up on the beach naked and running away from those drones? Yeah, now they will have nightmares of a big ass sloth frothing at the mouth for their demise. Giga making you worry next door? Nothing a Megatherium or 20 and some bug crack can’t fix. I promise you getting one of these changed my life. Collects Chiton pretty good I guess. If pretty good is you throwing out 16K cause you’re slot capped. Your future daughter will call this tame daddy, if you already have a daughter... you should have had a son.
Megatheriums are one of if not the absolute best way to defeat the Brood Mother, for instance it can easily obliterate any and all cave dwellers that guard the artifacts necessary to summon this demonic demigod. It also receives a damage boost when they kill any invertebrates and therefore, it is essential to use in the boss fight. When paired up with a Yuti and Deadon these killing machines are completely unstoppable; although, I’d recommend both high levels and great saddles.
Please like to help those of whom are planning on beating the Brood Mother.
I dont know about the guy that says wild dinos ignore you while you are riding megatherium but thats only half of the fact. They ignore you once you have the increased dmg against bugs buff which will appear as a sap icon once you kill at least 1 bug. Only then wild dinos will ignore you. As long as the buff is active the dinos will ignore you.
