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

Please be cautious while taming. If they have the bug killer boost, you may die. Because you are a bug to them because PUNY HUMAN.

despite what the ark wiki says i could barely find any of these guys on the crystal isles and had much better luck finding them on valguero in the tundra region near 40.20

I play on my fiancé’s account a fair amount (mainly to do some of the tedious things like getting metal, turning it into ingot, making narcotics, stuff like that.) I was flying around in the forest on one of the bigger islands south of red ob, just vibing, considering…

The best place to take these guys are the desert because if you do it right it will be infinite on rag

I know most ppl say got to the volcano yes that is more chit per minute but it’s a 2h cool down that’s why I say the desert is the best

(This is only for rag)

Even if they see a bug they will go in a blind rage and try to murder everything in its path. Be careful if you use a rhynio to transport it to a trap and make sure you don’t have to carry it far.

You can find them on the coast of the red woods on the island.Also they a weirdly fast so try to get one in water

Im playing ark at console.. im playing scroched earth... When you start hit this guy.. this thing can catch you really fast asf.. so if you wanted to tame it .. better find high ground or making trap..

To tame this beast create the contraption built from:

-4 Stone Foundations,

-16 Stone Door Frames,

-6 Wooden Ramps.

The foundations will hold the stone door frames you want 16 stone door frames to put on the perimeter. 8 stone door frames on top of 8 stone door frames. Hit…

When teaming these bad boys try to use a 3 x 7 stone foundation with some stone doorways surrounding it (make sure there 2 high and put a behemoth gate in the front of it that’s a really good trap to make for these guys and also be careful because they are very fast and you…

Take this to swamp cave on island and get the 3x note before hand. Run the cave wearing a scuba tank and goggles. Best way to lvl up

If they attack a bug in the wild their buff makes them aggressive. Was on extinction and one of these killed a spider. 36 chitin wasn’t worth it.

If you are playing on fjordur travel to jotenhien, you will find many more high level megatheriums (just make sure to have curry, tek canteen, and good fur). Sorry if spelling is bad

Dont compare stats to t rex, it says trex is higher but this thing harvests more and gets rage effect from killing anything that drops chitin. Which makes them do more damage and take less damage/torpor

Take a quick flight or run to the lava/burnt area and hit trees for massive amounts of charcoal and bonus those areas are full of insects so get that chitin!
