Moschops
The Moschops is a omnivorous therapsid best known for its love for food. Survivors can train it to favour specific types of food — whether it be Prime Meat or Rare Flowers — and it will become more effective at gathering it. The Moschops is a very cowardly creature and will flee from any sight of danger.
Player-written tips for taming, using, and fighting the Moschops in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
In the south this is for people who want to tame them
I got 77 prime meat from a single paracer on official during 2x using my moschops to harvest and around 50 organic poly per penguin. But be careful, they like to run away. Far!
They farm everything you need. Super easy to tame just walk up and see what he wants to be fed. Best way to farm Large eggs early and start a superior kibble farm imo.
Freaking overpowered and underrated. Gathers gathers fiber by the hundreds
Moschops is a good early resource collecter. Build a wall around resources (ferns, trees, etc. no rocks) then put the Moschops in in the area with the walls (or the resources) and it will be incased in walls collecting lots of resources.
These dude’s are so good, great for farming resources like (fiber, berries, rare flowers, etc) every time I restart, I try to get one of these guys, they can be a bit hard to knock out though, they will also swim away if they have to, but other than that, they’re pretty…

The absolute best starter tame. Good weight and can gather basically all the resources needed for a base
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
I've tamed 2 moschops and they both died from idk so just use a sickle or get a monkey or the chicken of forsaken manicure
This guy is one of the best starter Dino’s, it’s smaller but quick and nimble and it can harvest just about anything you really need to get early on in the game. It’s also pretty easy to tame just having a rare mushroom in the last slot.
Without a moschops fiber isn’t very easy to get early game. You have to harvest it with your hands which takes way too long. These guys also help me get narcoberries when I’m crafting narcotics.
It is frendy so it is safe it will attack you if you attack it
Moschops are a great way to start gather resources they can gather thatch berries and fiber so if you just started i suggest you use moschops first
When I tamed it, it wanted a Tintoberry. Not sure if it'll ask for any other type of berru though
Pros
-Easy to Tame Early Game Dinosaur
-Can Ride without Saddle
-Gathers Berries, Fiber, Chitin etc. In large Quantities
-Cute
-Can Focus leveling on one Specific Resource to Gather More of that Resource
Cons
-May take a while to find One that Eats berries
Each wild Moschops you encounter will ask for something different in order to tame. If you find one that asks for something that you don't have there will probably be another one close by that will ask for something that you do have.
If you look at the harvest rates on Dododex you will see how good this is and it has amazing stats I have one with 5000 health and deals 300 attack and you can ride them AND they are a passive tame
Only bad thing is they run away if you order them to “attack this target”
If you're in the need of Narcotics and can get enough Narcoberries for them in a short amount of time, Moschops can fix that problem easily, either manually attack harvestable plants and you'll get resource multipliers while doing it with a moschops or set it on…
If you're in the need of Narcotics and can get enough Narcoberries for them in a short amount of time, Moschops can fix that problem easily, either manually attack harvestable plants and you'll get resource multipliers while doing it with a moschops or set it on aggressive (If you set it to aggressive it won't attack but will endlessly harvest corpses and plants until it's carrying too much to move.) A great starter farmer dinosaur if you're in the need for one.
