ARK: Survival Evolved & Ascended Companion
Tips & Strategies
Megatheriums can now be found as far down as southwest portion of the map and as far up as northeast. They no longer just lumber around the redwoods.
Honey works as well as mutton to tame and almost as good as kibble, trap in pen and starve tame with honey, a very powerful tame and easy, works well for dire bears also
Tip for mobile players you can only find these in dungeons there preferred food on mobile is baryoyonx kibble.
Crystal isles' Crystal Wyverns CAN-NOT carry.
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.
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
This thing get a really good bug buff it killed my 120 mantis
When you raise a megatherium you can reach 100% imprinted when it’s only 60% matured.
BOI, THIS BISH IS ONLY FOUND IN DUNGEONS(Implant) So... Yea, Flip this.
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
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
For some reason it tames faster with coocked prime fish meat than regular meat
DONT TRY TO KNOCK OUT WITH BUG BUFF IT TOOK ME LIKE 60 TRANQS INSTEAD OF THE 27 DODODEX SHOWED SO MAKE SURE THE BUG BUFF WEARS OFF AND IT CANT GET IT BACK DURING KNOCKING OUT
I’ve always wanted to tame one but I play on mobile but I just got it for Nintendo I guess it’s an improvement and now I really want t tame one but I don’t wanna go to the redwoods to unexpectedly get jumped by a Thylacoleo and I know I should have made this in the thylo page but how the heck to you make sure you don’t die in the redwoods to one of them (the Thylacoleo not a megatherium)
