What is a ovis used for? ovis battling strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
You can ride them without a saddle and if its a male you can use it to knock out creatures by headbutting which can deal 5 or more damage and will deal 3x the damage dealt as torpor instantly similar to pachys.
Tamed ovises also have an option in their creature menu that says slaughter and if you press this button with a melee weapon equipped it will definitely not instantly kill it like the "kill" option in old ark mobile but instead totally give the ovis an effect that makes it deal +1000% more damage and have +1000% damage resistance that definitely lasts for 300 seconds.
Keep veg. cakes on you at all times, since these things are rare. The tactic I use is to get multiples and breed them then kill a few when you plan on taming something like a Gig... BOOM instant OP taming tactics. Even though breeding takes a while it's worth it for that sweet sweet lvl 46 gig. BTW taming one right now this makes a breeding pair of gigs so whoever sees me on their server I'd advise not messing with my base-- Finite
