If your aiming to get a more utility versed Megatherium the efficiently pump melee and weight. The more melee the Megatherium has the more chitin its able to collect, and weight so you can carry extra.
Megatherium

What ARK players use the Megatherium for, and how to get the most out of it in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Get 18 of these and the Broodmother is dead. Simple as that
Can someone pls tell me where can i find these guys on mobile pls
Honestly very cute, not too hard to tame, they can sit, and their face looks like a hairy horse
This thing is practacly god. God himself fears this thing when it kills an ant. It has eyes of rage when it kills a bug. All those time you were on a beach being chased by a level 134 flying ant, with this thing your reverse the roles.
These big ol sloth bois are fabulous at collecting massive amounts of chitin and also get a rather massive damage boost after killing any insect which is fantastic for killing the brood mother and her evil lil spider minions, my lvled sloth does 2.5k damage before boost and…

Great for Farming Chittin.
But, on mobile, Megatherium can't enter any cave due to its massive body. Just Figure it out and really dissapointed because i can't farm Chittin on Cave T-T
gets buff when in the presence of insects. useful for the Broodmother and artifact caves with many insects.
NO LINGER COLLECT CHARCOAL. Got it for that reason and turns out they no longer can, hitting a burnt tree will do nothing
This thing will have almost nothing smaller than it aggro, not even Carnos. Just stay away from the Allos. They kill everything.
Underrated gatherer. Great for berries and thatch.
Took 3 of these guys into the swamp. Took 10min to gather 5k chitin. They demolish everything in their path.
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…

AMAZING TAME! highly recommend this big lovable creature
Would easily recommend using a Megatherium over a Barryonx to do Artifact runs on the island. They are better on every stay, its called 7th best melee in the game.
Member being tracked down by the flying ants
Have no fear when
This MF foaming at the mouth just at the sight of one of them annoying @$$ ants
Megatherium is actually very strong. If you are starting out and want to do the brood mother, tame a couple high level megatheriums and it should be fine.
it is so good actually it can kill a broodmother easily
Best dino to get neura husk or get chitin
According to some friends you’ll need the megatherium for one of the boss fights on The Island. They hate bugs which is perfect for that. You could use the frogs but those are pretty squishy in comparison from what I have heard.
This guy is really good farming organic polymer too, if you are playing in Ragnarok or Scorch earth you can go to kill Mantis and get a lot of this material (You can replace the normal polymer whit organic polymer for creat ítems) :)
