A solid first dino tame. Not very strong or fast but it can help bare your weight and in the hostile world of ark a friend is what you really need.

I have a Parasaur who is a hero! When i was new i had a dodo pen, a Pterra and a Parasaur named Dolby.One day on the island i was getting resources on my raft with my trusty pterra by the swamps. It was by the swamps when them dam devil snakes slam my rafts deck. I fought with extremism , tho i won i felt woosy and passed out in the shallows where i met my fate. I woke in anger and cursed the stoopid island MY RESOURCES MY RAFT MY BIRD ALL GONE! Its a 2 day run back ill never survive! I opened my thatch door to see Dolby gaurding the dodo pen . I told him about my misfortune and something changed in Dolby that day. He had a fire in his eyes and belched out a cry that made the dodos dance a song of storms. He had a will to get back what was best for us, I told Dolby it suicide to go back!But he wouldnt fear anything . We rode, Dolby ran and ran past all who threatened us. We reached the raft. Everything intact. Dolby and i can still be seen making a morning run.Ill always remember Dolby

To make your life easier, use a bola. It will keep it from running while you knock it out. Club to the head works well but takes quite a few shots.

This in my opinion the best starter tame. They can hold alot and get berry's pretty well.try to upgrade the movement speed and weight omly.

The parasuar has had its base damage buffed to 12, base weight buffed to 480, and it’s wild weight gain was raised to 9.6 per level. This makes parasaurs carry only slightly less weight than a mammoth. Parasaurs have had a huge buff. Like this so others can see

Best tame to start with. Name it Ducky for good measure. Yup yup yup!

If a Rex or something big comes these can be a good distraction to give you time to run.Also they're easy to replace. GOOD LUCK😀

Super easy tame. Try to get one that's stuck on a tree or rock to keep it from running away. You have enough time to hand gather berries and narcoberries even if you have nothing when you knock it out.

I got myself a level 150 tame and got to say not a waste of time at all, very useful and look great in a completely pink saddle

Very good for low level berry collection and weight transport. Not the best fighter

Parasaur is the best starting mount. With their decent weight capacity and alarm ability makes it great for any gathering journey, especially for those with realistic settings. Set its alarm to detect creatures and into turret mode. It is a traveling trip alarm pinpointing the dangerous creatures at a distance. You can also activate its ability while mounted. Upvote so people know about its alarm ability.

Easy and cheap tame great pack animal since it's faster than keemstar and can carry a lot spec for health or/and weight no stress if it dies(which it shouldn't if you have it on passive follow and run away)

To tame the parasaur try to stay on the beach near it, so when you hit it, it will run across the beach instead of into the forest or water

Definitely something to get you levels, use bolas if available or run them into a wall. A good starter tame too.

It's like a human with better weight. Use a bola to trap it, and knock it out. Useful for collecting berries and thatch early on. Weight and movement speed are the best upgrades. Keep it on follow while getting resources, and load them onto it.

Only upgrade its speed it can be a raft underwater and a raptor on land

So many people say, "Parasaur is the worst tame." They are all lying. With a Weight/Speed focused high level parasaur, you can get away from everything after you, plus have them with you when out gathering resources. They even swim pretty fast.

They are great for a mount rescue. If you need to return to where you died, I recommend this mount. All its really good for is a steady run and recovers stamina fast.. Saved many high lvl dino at a cost of a low lvl Parasaur. AVOID FIGHTING

After update these guys can spot enemy players while in turret mode and it will alert you. You can also set the range for the turret from low to high. Upvoe so people know they have another purpose.

Upgrade melee damage to get more berries and then this is a lvl 1 trike pretty much good starter
