What are tips for mesopithecus? Tips and strategies for mesopithecus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
It's good to have with you if you are get in attacked on foot or Dino it slows the Attacker if it hits them with poop it will help you out if you are a solo player
If attacked they will lose all their taming progress. I found that out the hard way. I was taming a level 14 at 80% progress, then a dilo spit on it
I shot it with a tranq arrow and trapped it by building walls on fence foundations around it. When it wome up, i fed it berries. Worked great for me.
I woke up with one on my face pooping and throwing it at me
Hands down my favourite companion. Slows enemies and inflicts torpor by throwing poop when on your shoulder, listens to commands when on your shoulder. Handy to escaping troublesome dinos or slowing annoying tames like the quetz. Only half his weight is added to you when he's on your shoulder, I keep my trapping gear in him like a few gates, pillars, bear traps etc and also a couple sleeping bags and tents incase things get rough. Stick a tracker on him and you can leave him in a 1x1 structure to refind downed tames etc, handy to keep an extra tracker at base in case you die he'll be with your body so you can easily find it again. Whistle on a bush and he'll collect berries. Collects meat and hide too but I'm not sure how, Just keep seeing it appear in his inventory. Can wear a helmet for additional protection and fun masks too! I put all his skill points into hp and weight. Warns you of danger too!
I think it's the best shoulder Mountain all of PVP Spectrum because it deals damage to your enemies so even if your enemy has the same Health armor and weapons and weapon percent damage and armor stuff but you have a mezzo you will win so I think it's good to always have one when PVP it is not the best in p VE but it is still good in PVE if not as good as in PvP but in PVE I suggest having them otter
But make sure you upgrade it's melee so it deals damage when it says poop and I'll check this out myself but it might actually upgrade how much corporate does too by operating melee I don't know but definitely upgraded to melee and then probably wait and then help since most likely he's just going to be always on your shoulder so you don't need a great help that much but definitely upgrade melee and wait since it's a shoulder pet all shoulder pets need to wait so they can hold items for you if you didn't know this shoulder pets actually when they hold items in their inventory then put them back on your shoulder it weighs less so make sure you have some pretty good weight on it and then upgrade melee I'm lucky to have one that has almost 250% melee
I'm just wondering if anybody actually doesn't know how to make it through poop and go into behavior and do targeting something and it will say allow like turret mode yeah dirt road turn on dirt mode and put on your shoulder that will start throwing poop but only at Target you hit or targets that hit you
Wish tips would consist of where to find them, or info itself or even a map marking, instead of “wow what a great audience” 😑
Crouch down behind them feed them mejos them back up quickly. Do that over and over agian . Their hand fed DONT get violent
MINE JUST DIED. what a bug 😮💨 tried taming a level 120 and the health dropped instead of its hunger.
Poor fellow, I had one and he was killed by a dodo bird before turning two
To tame one crouch up to it and feed it mejoberries I think rare flowers and rare mushroom can work it is a passive tame so u don't knock it out it is a shoulder mount 😉 very funny it uses poop to slow dinos down
I hope that's enough for now and apparently u can knock it out and feed it dodo kibble in ark mobile survival evolved I am not sure if it works for other types of ark
These monkeys are one of the easiest shoulder pets to get all you have to do is sneek up to them with berries or kibble in your hotbar and feed them and they have a special ability to throw poop at you enemy's and disable the sprint for a couple minutes while takeing damage.
If you type in monke this guy appears
