What are tips for moschops? Tips and strategies for moschops in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Arguably my favourite fiber gatherer. It has a secondary levelling system used for specific resources. Each point you can apply to that is available after you put in any regular stat points from levelling up. You need to use the secondary attack on a moschops to gain the applied bonuses to said rare resource. I started playing when these guys came out and no one had a clue what they were used for, so now luckily we all know what they do.
if you put moschops on aggressive on mobile it harvests automatically, although it sees any animal as a threat and will run away so my recommended dino settings to have are following and targeting on low and aggression on aggressive and make sure wandering is on, if they start running, kill any dinos that are close or move away, also make sure they get left in a relatively bushy area.
I play ark mobile on Brutal difficulty(xp gain is nonexistent and wild creatures go up to level 450) and this has been my most valuable tame since I started. Yes, it is a coward, but it is crazy useful. Mine is level 407 after taming, and it has survived EVERYTHING the game has thrown at it so far. I highly recommend taming one as soon as you start the game(not difficult to do and I tamed mine while at level one.) Here are the main advantages:
1: Tanky, so you can use it to take attacks from something while trying to knock it unconscious. Also, you
don't really need to worry about it dying if yours is a decent level,(A level 50 one can have about a thousand health in the wild and might gain a lot more after taming if you are lucky.
2: Crazy good at gathering resources(In a resource rich area, mine collected almost 5000 thatch, a thousand wood and a thousand berries in the span of 3 in game days. Set it to wander if you want it to go collect things for you)
3: Surprisingly strong. While attempting to tame a knocked out stego, accidently killed it with a single attack(Around 300 damage, and yes, I know mine is a ridiculously high level, but my level 40 one with mate boost and a few points in melee hits for about 80).
4: Because they're pretty easy to tame and pretty light on resources to do so, even if it is a high level one (mine only took around 11 berries and a good deal of patience.) You get a lot out of taming one, and because they are easy to get, they are a must have for new players.
These guys are one of da best starter tames for gathering and do not need a saddle
Just saw the lil squirt ask for Cooked Prime Meat. You will need some prime meat and prime fish meat COOKED!!
To tame you have to get red berry and mojo berry (in my experience I gave it red berry and it went to 73% when I gave it one red berry) feed it and wait then feed it again 1 like=1 noob learn how to tame this
quick fact: for berries, it specifically eats tintoberry and mejoberry.
We bred two moschops they had a baby but the baby died and we harvested the body and
It gave us prime meat!! Someone in the dodo tips said they did the same thing and it gave them prime meat to!! So I think if you harvest
Any baby/ juniville animal with a axe it will give you prime meat ( I think pretty sure)
I tamed it with only 2 mejoberries, it was my first dino, no need to knockout.
On mobile they take whatever food you give them at least as its one of the taming foods and you can also KO tame them and give them their taming foods
It rant attack you it just runs at if got in a fight if your moschops is a good level and if a giga waod a fight then fight
This tame is simple feed it wat it says to feed it
