What ARK players use the Megatherium for, and how to get the most out of it in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.

If you are taking this to the broodmother lysrix boss fight, remember to uprpgrade some weight because this thing farms chitin like a beast and wouldn’t be able to move after its inventory is filled by chitin lol.

Has good carry weight, gathers lots of berries, thatch, fiber, and chitin. Also it can be maneuvered a lot easier than other berry collectors.

In my opinion one of the best land mounts in the game, slow turn radius and sprint speed are its only cons, great base health and damage, amazing base carry weight and good stamina make this my taming mount, at 4K health it can tank a Spino while I tranq it still riding which…

Here's a hint. These sloths get a buff after eating insects, boss fight anyone?

great for fighting the broodmother, all the araeno practically give it a permanent buff, plus they're easier to tame and breed than rexes!

Are these on Switch? I just got ARK on Switch yesterday, and I was wondering if I could tame one on the Island.

Good against the broodmother,because of their boost against bugs.(if they kill a bug they get a boost that basically makes them the strongest Dino in ark.)Breeding them is also really easy because they give you a baby instantly and don't drop an egg, which saves a bit of time.

I use these guys for boss fights they are amazing if you have enough of them

These creatures are pretty easy to tame (a simple knock out feed) they are brilliant for caves as they have the bug buff ability (makes them 2x stronger when fighting bugs) also these creatures are amazing for the broodmother for the same reason.

Hope this helped.

I would highly recommend getting one of these big boys. Me and one of my boys got a 140 earlier today and I must say he is quite the Dino. His name is Pablo and he is a beast. Got his health to 10k and his melee to 350 then took him down to the swamp cave on the island. Pablo…

Like the Therizino, but gathers more thatch than wood. Also, this thing has really good weight.

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…

Can be put in a procoptodon (kangaroo) pouch while it’s in a baby state

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.

In the Island Redwoods cave and Ragnarok Ascended Carnivore Cavern, there is heaven for Megatheriums
