Tips & Strategies
Just stand on a cliff and shoot it with around 20 trank arrows.feed it berries and its tamed
Best way to tame this boi.
First. Get a raft and take it to a swamp or wherever he spawns.
Second. Get 40+ tranq or Toxicant arrows get the raft and have someone else drive it (if solo shoot then drive).
Final. Make sure while you shoot it then have the person drive it near land so it does not get knocked out in water and drown. Then shoot until knocked. Can’t use bolas for this boi so good luck.
Dire bears will attack your Paracer when tamed, lost mine about a week ago when my trouble left it on passive thinking nothing would Agro on it
I have a whole army of these guys a total of seven of them three of them have platforms. They are unstoppable. The one in the middle I named WORLD PIG and a an eighth one in my base so I can pack it with materials if I am raided and I manage to escape.
Single player uses:
1. Mobile base: Paraceratherium is basically just a smaller bronto.
2. Early game power mount: Despite their size paracers are easy to tame and their saddle is unlocked at a relatively low level.
3. Karkinos/golem Taming mount: You can place a catapult on its platform saddle.
i shot one with 18 tranq darts and 30 tranq arrows and he didn’t fall over bruh
On Mobile it cannot hit you if you grapple onto it’s back
If you are relatively new to Ark, it would be better to tame a paracer than a bronto simply because it’s easier to move around. Even though it has lower stats in health and weight, it still has an adequate amount of both. Stamina will be higher as it is smaller in comparison. Putting levels in health, weight, and melee is best, then maybe put a few in stamina and/or movement speed to make it a better travel companion. Overall, this is an adequate pack animal that is more compact and easy to travel with if you are in early mid game.
These guys are great for turrent soaking, if you slap a decent platform saddle on one and build a decent sized metal wall as far back as possible, just big enough to cover the paracer’s back you can use it to soak turrents walk it backwards and it won’t take much damage great way to raid some new bases
On the island they wander around the swamps and especially around the border of the Redwoods Biome though they spawn within the Biome as well. Great source of prime meat.
Keep in mind that because they have a lot of torpor and are found near the water, they usually end up running into the water and drowning when you try to KO them.
I mostly to tame it i got real interested on getting one be cause of the platform saddle thingy even tho im lvl 64 i need it ._. So i took out all his friends and then shot him in the head with tranc darts (about 10)
Then i fed him berries until he loved me :)
it’s on every map, including aberration
I had just set up a sarcophagus trap and was adding a few more ramps and one of these fell into my trap, it was lv 12 so it needed work but it was still a weird incident, I named it parcy 😂
On Scorched Earth, the Oasis at the Red Beacon is a popular Paracer spawn.
Taming these guys are like taming a bronto
And there P saddle is pretty chip accept for that 700 fiber
A low level paracer tamed early in the game with a slingshot is a valuable ally. Just make sure you are up high before you begin firing.
