Player-written tips for taming, using, and fighting the Megatherium in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.

So you would like to tame a ✨Megatherium✨ here's how

First I would recommend making a taming pen out of 4 stone foundations and 2x high stone doorways then you will tranq it count 5sec per shot because it takes a second for the shots to kick in then feed the taming…

Don't try to kill these for XP. I lost a level 130 Tek Rex trying to kill a level 82 when suddenly another one ran in from behind and they shredded my freshly tamed creature in about 5 seconds, I didn't even have time to turn around.

DO NOT BRING BUGS ANYWHERE NEAR THIS GUY! I was coming back home from the redwoods with some new times riding on my scorpion and I tried to just pass by him but he immediately aggroed my scorpion and all of my other tames. 15 tames died in a matter of seconds. Only the level…

I adopted it using bait. My best dinosaur was a Triceratops. I managed to adopt it, but if you don't have the budget to build stone walls and floors, bring a bait with a full life, tell it not to be aggressive, and attack the megatherium with the dinosaur. Stop with the…

A lvl 15 killed 7 high-level dimorphs. They were taking him out at first then It started secreting a red mist and wiped them all out myself included

You never know what you've got until it's gone. Actually I knew exactly what I had and that was my mega. The BEST at gathering chitlin or keratin. I'd take him to a spot with a lot of bugs and after 2 mins I'd have stacks and stacks of chit/keratin. I left…

He is basically the incarnation of a gorilla god if he gets his hand on any bug. He will obliterate any who stand before him and rip the chitin from your very soul. Cause if you didn’t have chitin before now be prepared to have to much of it. The only downside of this literal…

It doesnt say but these things are a godsend on scorched. Can collect alot of silk, cactus sap,fiber, and berries. If you take it out into the dessert and have a decent level megatherium you can kill deathworms and mantis' untill you get bored.
