Tips & Strategies

Probably your first tame besides the jerboa. Boomerangs work wonders to knock out. Wait to single out one then knock out in a corner and then use berries. Great for water storage, berry gathering, thatch, and wood!
So, best strat I've found if you're playing solo with ASA Scrorched Earth is to play into being a cowboy of Bob's Tall Tales.
How I've done it, is try to climb onto its tail with a boomerang or whatever your knockout tool is and go right up to the back hump, then just start going to town and hoping you don't get knocked off or it runs into a group that might get ticked off from it taking any damage. If you're positioned just right, it can't hurt you and just carry you along for a ride.
Try to get it running towards a wall or mountain for easier knockout
Ignore the feeding tips and just feed a k.od morellotops cactus sap they instantly eat it even when not hungry and they tame in a matter of minutes
May be obvious, but boomerang works like a charm to tame.
This tame is a Bad in escaping but for fighting its a good one. You should tame one at lvl 80 lvl it up on health. A lvl 55 would do it too. If you need one for just gathering berries you can use a low Level one like 22 lvl and lvl it up on weight so you dont need to drop all the time.
Attacks:
Lmb:normal attack good for side and Front Attacks
Rmb: high jump attack good for Killing Vultures,Argies,and insectes
It carrys water btw 750 each time you would drink 100 means you good for 7 drinks before reacharging
This abbility is good for travelling tribes or if you have a base without any water source.
TAIMING
The taiming is the easiest Part cause you just need a bomerang and try to get it in a corner where it cant escape.
Now feed him berries and ask a nice tribe for berries.
PS: Starve it,it would be an insta tame

These will not run when you attack. He and his bro’s will eat you. A lot.
This thing is the god of scorched earth beginners. Easy to tame, can hold 750 water, decent at combat and great berry collecter.
Okay so me and my brother were playing scorched earth and really wanted one so we used a strategy that worked. Depending if it’s you solo or playing with other people bring a boomerang or two for each of you (or just you) and find one a little away from its tribe if solo, but if not playing solo just corner them, then spam them with boomerangs and it will knock them out. Same for solo(CAUTION TAKES A LITTLE WHILE TO TAME)
Tame a low level with a boomerang at the beginning of scorched earth, that's when you start to progress
Great dino for almost any needs. Great at collecting berries and wood. Good weight. Easyily takes out predators with normal hit as its knockback is great so if you time it perfectly you keep knocking them back and they cant hit you. Lvl 75+ is able to take out a rex easily.
If you find yourself against a herd of these, just keep backing up and using your boomerangs, trans arrows, and slingshots. Both the primary and secondary attacks have a delay before they actually deal damage, and they have to stop moving first, so if you keep backpedaling they won't be able to hit you.
A stupid raptor came along and killed both of the Morellatops I was taming!!!! One dn (Read upside down)
equals one raptor I will kill
