What are tips for paraceratherium? Tips and strategies for paraceratherium in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
When knocking these guys out, DO NOT UNDERESTIMATE THEIR SPEED. Even though they are slow they can easily catch up with you. I learned the hard way by trying to back pedal it like a bronto, but it hit me and got me down to half health. When I started chasing it, I thought I was about good, then I ran into a lvl 115 carno that would've killed me if I didn't have my therizino close by. While I was being chased, the paracer passed out, so all I had to do was kill the carno and feed the paracer.
(This should probably be in stories but at the same time it's kind of a tip...)
Has a very poor turning radius so you can strafe in a circle whilst shooting darts/tranq arrows for an easy tame.
The paracer apparently had the biggest Wong going of all the dinosaurs
If you wanna tame the big guy, first locate a paracer and lure it away from the swamp, then find a flat terrain and build a trap. (Using 3 stone gateways) Then place a large bear trap in the middle and lead the paracer into the trap, when it's trapped, close off the trap with the final stone gateway. Then start shooting tranq arrows or darts at it's head. When it is knocked out, feed it berries or Superior kibble. This creature's torpor drops fast so put narcotics or narcoberries in it's inventory. When it's tamed, congratulations, you tamed a paracer!
You can also try to run away and shoot like you would do with a bronto but it's more risky as paracers are faster than brontos.
1. Find a praceefhdeufwbgvcuekebsvurbfuebxem.
2. Punch the Paracehuehfiehduwfh7ejfwfxyzgceihyem.
3. Put berries in the paracerbdjfgwudhfuegggfueheucems inventory.
4. Wait for your paracemfrbfjefhrufyg3ihef3udgfhejvjdncjdbrhnjo838hgxem to tame.
I don’t know if anyone else has experienced this but I tried taking one of these on my own with no trap, the parapet continuously fake ran away and then returned. I loaded over 90 tranqs in to it and it never got close to going down even on a boosted server. So use a trap, I died many times to bring you this information.
I have an idea on SE with this, so sense nothing attacks these guy get an anky on him, multiple refinerys, some fires for food, water, and a Adobe shelter. After that go to the badlands or mountains find metal that is safe of just kill everything near the metal and then mine away.
Your welcome (up if you liked I’m going to do this myself too)
These guys r a super easy tame! Even if you are low level and haven’t unlocked the saddle yet, def tame it as it will be great protection for the base if smth strong comes. I have one called Barry and I take him everywhere!
75 tranq arrows out of an apprentice crossbow for a level 145, my first tame above level 100 because I usually play on low difficulty. Very worth it
These guys give a good amount of prime so if you’re looking to tame a giga or a rex with prime these are a great way to get lots of prime meat. It’s also easy to kill one of these if you have a high level argie.
Amazing for soaking tek and heavy turrets
Overall a decent bruiser, and faster than one would expect. It seems to give more prime meat on average than a bronto does, making it a good animal to hunt with a Rex or Giga.
