Tips & Strategies

Usually I’d tame a dodo for the first dinosaur but, this one is good too. Their farming is really good, and their melee damage and health is very good, and they can be very fast too! They can carry lots of your stuff. Make an army of these, they’ll do everything for you. If you don’t think that they should be the first dinosaur you should get, Up= let ppl know.

This guy is my favorite dino to start. It can farm LOTS of fiber, chitin, berries, rare mushrooms, rare flowers, polymer, etc. And it has a considerably good melee and health. But people don't see its value just because its a big coward iguana... Lmao. But for real, they're really one of the best dinos to get at the beginning, if not the best.
It is one of the only 11 dinos that can harvest fibre (excluding the megachelon), and it’s the best among them. It is a very early game tame, I tame him at before level 10 every time I start a run. He does not need a saddle to ride. Hope this helped and wish y’all a great day.

Moschops is literally one of the best chitin and polymer farmers, if not the best. Kill trilobites with it and you'll see how much chitin it gets (and a bit of oil and pearls too). I spent the last hour killing trilobites with Potato (my Moschops) and got two chests full of chitin. Apparently people don't know this so give it an up to let everyone know.
