Lure it away from the swamp and shoot it with tranq arrows. It will be 20+ arrows used. Don't forget to run when shooting or just make a trap.

real quick, but why does this guy look depressed?

You can make a house on the platform saddle and on the porch a cooking pot to make beer to crack open a cold one with the boys

He protec, he attac, but most of all...

He got a cannon on his back.

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.

The only dino that'll agro an unconscious paracer is a Rex. So if those are taken care off and your cautious about not bringing in extra friend with you. You don't have to worry about other creature damaging your tame.

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)

Most likely gonna get hated for this but uhh

To me it’s free meat ;-;.

On Scorched Earth the Paracer with its platform saddle is a needed tame. You can put a cannon on it and use it for taming Rock Elementals or use its high weight and health for carrying large loads of supplies around through dangerous areas.

I use my paracer as my cargo transport dino for short to mid distance. I use it to go to the redwood nearby and gather MASSIVE amounts of metal. Just hop off, get the metal, load up the paracer, then get back home. They can defend themselves quite effectively

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

Mount a industrial grill on the paracer platform and have it follow u whilst on Rex or giga then when u get prime jump on paracer and put prime on grill

If you’re trying to pick between a bronto and one of these guys, absolutely take these guys, theyre better all round, and yes, the platform is a lot smaller, but it’s all you need on PVE, and it does the job nicely, whether you need metal, to move dinos, whatever, these guys gotchu

PRO TIP: Slap a platform saddle on this bad boy. And search "Elemental Mega Farmer" on YouTube to find a build that will allow you to farm infinite weight of resources!

Level 150 on official 1x rates takes about 100 tranq arrows with crossbow to drop. Then tame with crop.

Way better than the bronto in terms of size speed and mobility

Why does he look depressed?????

Put auto turrets on its back and you got an ATAT

EVERYONE HAS TO KNOW THIS! These dinos are a beast at gathering plant species X in swamp bushes on Ark mobile.

Try to find a lone paracer since they roam in herds outside the swaps. Trying to knock a paracer out when it's near other paracers is an easy way to die.
