only mountable creature I've found on scorched earth that gathers Fiber. Not bad at it either. Why is this so undermentioned? Defiantly worth taming between fiber collection, silk and chitin. Also gathers cactus sap decently even at low level
Megatherium

What ARK players use the Megatherium for, and how to get the most out of it in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Best creature for brootmother, takes significant less damage and does more since it gets a buff when killing the spiders
They are THE best starting dino by a mile. They get you berrys, meat, thatch, fiver, chitin ect. Everything you would need when you start a new map. They are also adorable and get an amazing buff of killing bugs.
Very very good at collecting Chitin, hit a few scorpions and turtles and mine some stone and you make plenty of paste in chem bench. Hope this helps
Chitin Farming Machine! 30 minutes in the Ragnorak desert and I am swimming in Chitin!
I was riding my mega therium and tested the bite attack it harvested bushes gave me berries and fiber no sickle needed
I have a lv 170 and he took on a lv 76 alpha carno and easily took him down
BEST CAVER FOR SCORCHED EARTH!!!
Can fit through all artifact caves with ease additionaly the caves are riddled with bugs so this sloth can just steamroll them with the insect killer buff. Or if ypu dont want to fight you can just walk past them 90% of the time.
Great for harvesting chitin as well as other resources
They get a buff when killing bugs which makes them op for the swamp cave and do grinding
The buff they from killing bugs makes them INSANLY O.P. they a HUGE Melee buff. They are super useful for beating the brood mother because of the extra damage to bugs and the buff they get from killing the spider minions also tanky.
Best dino I have found for gathering charcoal. Easily gets over a stack per burnt tree.
These guys should be able to be tamed outside of the dungeons
Take this to carnivore island and wreak havoc!!! Everything but rexes ignore you and you can collect STACKS of chitin in like two seconds. Only downfall: slowest swimmer ever. A raft or some patience required. Use narcotics when taming! I lost a 102 because I tried to use…

This thing is a beast against bugs and he gets even stronger when he kills one.
Alpha worms don’t stand a chance with a high level Mega.
Use these nuts for the Broodmother
Amazing for spider boss definitely the best pick with a pig and furry rex you can grind element super fast
Does not aggo bees when tameing a queen bee
Breed a bunch of these bad boys to absolutely annihilate the broodmother
