What are tips for moschops? Tips and strategies for moschops in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Moschops are probably the best beginner game on most islands, because they are relatively easy to tame, ( depending on your luck) and they can farm many useful resources. Along with that they can be raised to take our almost ever non major threat you encounter as a beginner.
UP SO BEGINNERS AND CAN SEE.

To be honest you should take one of these they’re really easy. Take with mejoberries and they can get berries. They also do about 100 damage if you level up the melee damage
They r so overpowered for beginners. They have great attack, they are great gatherers, and u can ride them without a saddle. They are also very easy to tame if you have one that needs something like 1 tintoberry or 1 mejoberry
So I tamed one on my 2nd day on ark. It was a level 90. It is definitely helpful for people just starting out because if you set it to wander it collects a good amount of fiber, berries, wood, and thach. I recommend it to anyone starting out because it can be a great help getting those resources that you need.
Remember in the new update they can ask for (from my experience) regular berrys giant bee honey mejo berrys and cooked prime meat hope this helps
Don't be afraid to attack it it's known as the "coward dino" it doesn't fight either but it's good at gathering berries
Well I only tame the ones who just want berries but sometimes it wants ELEMENT
how to tame and use moschops:
step 1: locate the moschops
step 2: feed it it's desired food
step 3: get angry because it wants cooked prime
step 4: exit and re-enter ark
step 5: hop back on and hope it wants mejo/tintoberries
repeat steps 3-5 if needed
step 6: tame the moschops
now you have a big iguana sitting around.
after taming, use it to kill members of its own against will
or maybe even trap multiple females to exploit their ability to create superior kibble with their eggs
or just use it as a fiber/berry gatherer
don't forget about those harvesting levels by the way. level in something, take your little buddy with you, and harvest, trust me it can be worth it
recommended stats to level: weight, health, melee (if being used to fight)

Easiest way to Tame:
It took me too much time to get it, i wasnt paying much attention, i was just trying to smack him to tame him like other dinos, but it was way easier. You just have to go to Moschops and look what they are asking to be tamed(at the top below their name and lvl), if its berries then its super easy, if its something else you just have to put it(anything they are asking for) in quick access slot, and feed it, then wait until it ask again to be feeded, do this and Boom! you have your coward Moachops ready XD.
(Same technique can be used for few other dinos)[few? Idk i just noticed 2-3 dinos that asks to be tamed like this, btw i am newbark player :) ]
For Gathering Resources:
Just put it to Wandering, and if they are still folowing you just Whistle "Stop" for them only and see they'll go for resources :). Then just collect resources from their inventory time to time as your need.
Also, as far as i read, you cant Ride them on Mobile version.
All the ones I have gone to only ask for berry and don’t change what they want to eat ,I don’t now why
