If you have set 1 of these on wandering you may know that it can run into danger and die easily. In my opinion the best solution for this is to put it on aggressive because moschops on aggressive just run away from everything. It may not save it from a giga but it will help a lot. It runs away from most things before it attacks them. Thank you for reading.

The Moschops is in my opinion the best starter dino, on a new survivor I always make finding this guy my first priority….reasons?

1. No saddle needed.

2. Can quickly gather the essentials like fibre/thatch/berries…

3. They’re actually rather fearsome when ridden, they can easily fight off dilo’s and wrestle with trikes/turtles…..if you tame a higher level Moschops and level in melee and hp you can comfortably engage with bigger threats like raptors and carno.

4. Eating one Trilobite provides enough Chitin to make a Petra saddle….which is usually my second priority on a new survivor.

5. Can be tamed with just a few Tinto or Mejoberry….if it wants something ridiculous like honey just save/reload until you get the easy option…

6. Moschops will always tame at 100% effectiveness as you either have what it wants or you don’t.

Cons: It’s pretty slow but still significantly safer than travelling on foot. Its stamina regen is painfully slow.

Summary: A Moschops will allow you to hit the ground running during your first day or two on the ark. Their ability to collect a wide range of resources while keeping you safe from threats is everything you need in a starter mount.

If you raise your Moschops for battle you may be surprised at just how powerful they can be….the base damage of their bite is 32 and has a fairly wide AOE….my Warchops has successfully fought Rex and Spinos and demolished countless Raptors.

When taming one, remember that not only are they all around really solid tames, but also keep in mind that according to Dododex, Raptors are #100 for base melee damage and these are number #53, so they hit like a truck if you level melee. So level melee and health, you won't regret it.

That creature is a total monster on damage, it's damage is comparable to s rex, its easy to tame, and grinds a LOT of fiber a LOT of mejo a LOT of meat like this animal isn't from this world (if you ride it it's a rex level but if ur not riding it and whistle attack its a total coward)

In Mobile you can't ride them so what I do is when I start a new save I just tame one or two low levels then I take them to somewhere near where I want to build my base and set them on wonder and just leave them there(make sure its a safe place so nothing will kill it) and while you do your stuff they'll gather decent amount of fiber (for early game)and once awhile I check them and take everything.it really saves a lot of time since you don't have a sickle early game. I REALY hope you find this useful

Have great day ;)

Description:

Wild:

Moschops Cibumutante is one of the many reminders that this Island is full of surprises that simply make no sense given it’s strength compared to behavior.

Despite having a jaw with enough crushing power to break a bone, Moschops Cibumutante is unusually shy when it comes to fighting, and will startle and flee if attacked. It seems to perceive survivors stealing the eggs as a direct attack, as it will flee if this occurs.

Rather, Moschops Cibumutante is far more passive and friendly towards survivors and all other animals, even appearing oblivious towards predators until provoked by them, and will react to humans in a friendly manner.

Domesticated

Moschops Cibumutante is easy to tame and is used for the very purpose of gathering berries and wood (it’s jaw can penetrate trees), and is also tamed as a pet equally often. Just remember, it is reluctant to fight and sometimes displays “coward” behaviors, and it’s personality has been described as “lazy”.
