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

Wwwhhhhhyyyyyyyyy can u not ride these in mobile

Moschops are one of the best ways to collect berries early to mid-game, well at least I think so. When you tame them you should upgrade weight, speed, and stamina, if you are using them for harvesting. Easy to tame since they are passive. Some require things like rare flowers. If you want to tame one that needs rare flowers or something like that, then check back next time you play because their food changes over time. And one final thing, on mobile you can't ride them. I played on console then I got mobile, tamed one, then realized it was pretty much useless for me. But still one of the best early tames and I would recommend taming one if you are just starting out. Thanks for reading!

You can place these in front of trees or bushes in your base, and it will collect wood and thatch, or fiber and berries, then after the trees or bushes respawn, it will collect wood and thatch or fiber and berries again, until it starts to get encumbered and stop. Then, you can collect your resources from its inventory, and it will start automatically collecting again.

If you set it to wander it gathers wood, thatch, and fiber then comes back to you right before it gets encumbered, so they autofarm wood, thatch, and fiber basically

These moschopies have just eaten a dead carbonemys.they also destroyed a palm and I got a lot of resources.Really cool lizards

Moschops cannot be ridden on mobile. However, this doesn’t make it useless since it can still harvest loads of stuff. Whistle it to follow you, lead it to the thing you want harvested and then whistle it to stop. Then it’ll harvest whatever is in front of it.

Hope this was useful info.

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.

Why can’t ride on mobile game

The single best early tame! You could basically get them as soon as you leave the character creation. With a little bit of luck berries will be enough to tame one up. Get some mushroms and flowers in the swamp if you want to increase your chances. Less than 5min of work and you got yourself a survivable, decently hard hitting and quick enough mount that doesnt require a sadle. As the cherry on top it can gather every plant and dino recource there is. Use it to get your narcotic production started which is going to xp boost you up to crossbow levels in no time from where you can comfortable tame whatever you like. It is the ultimate kickstarter for your playthrough.

Good tame for beginners, I always tame one of these :3

This is by far the best gatherer of organic polymer. Carry the moschops to a frozen island with penguins. Put it on follow. Create a whisle group and whisle with the (Xbox) Lb down d-pad while looking at a corpse. It will collect the penguin corpse. Do not do this whisle in your base.

I can’t ride it on ark mobile idk why but I can’t

Good early game Dino. Didn’t pay attention to mine for awhile but still fed al lvled up. Just realized when from lvl 5 to lvl 30 in like 6 game days. Has 1183.7 health and 285.7 Melee 😳

Easy tame, no saddle, great harvester, what more do you want P.S if it wont take berrys kill it

Dododex pls equal the pelegornis and moschips it may not attack but for penguin farms the moschops is so much better

So how to tame a moschops. (It’s easier in mobile)

Final. Get berries of any (I prefer tinto berries) then feed him it will change the wanted food to tame so take Giant bee honey,Rare mushroom and raw mutton!

The one I was taming wanted cooked prime meat not just raw

I saw a mosh and tried to tame it it took less then 3 minutes.

It also can want berries so if you can please up it so they can fix this. Thank you
