Tips & Strategies
In Crystal Isles I had an idea…
So, my tribe is on a number of servers, and bc of time zones we are struggling to all tribe up. We don’t transfer stuff over unless a server is closing. Now, on other servers it’s difficult cause I make one base, then finally tribe up and are split between the two bases. So, I thought: why not make a mobile base? Remember that I am level 6 at this thought, and so I thought that hell yeah, I can do that but it takes so long to tame and I wanted an imprinted one. So I put crop plots on my raft and started work on cooking prime from carnos who thought they could take on some wild direbears. The prime jerky cooked up in my preserving bin and I have everything else ready: I’m level 37 with ground-only mounts preparing to take 2 162+ paracers.
Hope this does something positive for you guys: I’m lvl 37 with ghillie, 4 raptors (one imprinted) and some breeding moschops (for eggs) and 2 dodos sat on a raft with his crossbow waiting for the perfect paracer to spawn. I guess the morale of this story is when you put your mind to it, you’d be surprised at how much you can accomplish. And btw, I’m trash. I know for a fact that you’re better than me, and if I can do this then hell yeah you can too
More Paraceratherium Utility Tips
Ok, so I just tamed two of these. (I live in the swamp/Redwoods) So, I’m just living my life, and an Alpha Carno just comes out of nowhere?? He just kinda,,, appeared. And I was really stressed out cause I thought I was gonna lose everything, but my paracers came through! They had the Carno down in less than a minute. I would definitely recommend these things to mid-level players like me, especially since they’re not hard to tame at all! (Sorry it’s so long, I got excited)
Comparing the paracer and bronto
The paracer has : speed,dps,stamina,and platform saddle is learned at level 50
But also the paracer has : lower hp,weight and a smaller platform saddle
The bronto has :great weight, large platform,better hp and is the best berry gathering dino by far
But the bronto also has :lower speed,lower dps,lower stamina and the saddle is learned at level 82
Here are a few reasons why I would reccommend getting a Paracer for mid-game:
-Fairly easy to tame
-Great for harvesting thatch
-Higher level paracers have tons of health
-They deal a surprising amount of damage
-You can unlock the paracer saddle at lvl 41 and the platform saddle at lvl 50; The platform saddle is very useful as you can place things on it and it doesn't weigh down your paracer
Have fun!
