Easily one of the best first tames you can get. Tames in minutes, it's on every map, and doesn't fight back. It's got pretty good weight, stamina, and it will likely be able to go faster than you. I personally use these early game as a beast of labor, carrying me while I harvest stone and wood from its back or have it at my side for when I get encumbered. It's scare ability is phenomenal for dealing with those pesky early predators like raptors that'd normally kill you without a mount. And it's enemy detection system is helpful even late game for finding hidden dinos like thylas or a dormant Phoenix. Or in pvp it can double for helping you find hidden enemy players. All around a good dino you should tame as soon as possible and keep around for utility.

These are the BEST early game Dino’s. They can carry tons of weight, they are fast, and they can be trapped by bolas. Please leave a like if this helped you.

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.

Utility Roles for Parasaur:

1. Long Range Scout. Paras have naturally high stamina, so they can cover distance without needing to rest. Plus their turret mode gives you alerts for nearby enemies (level Movement Speed to ensure you can outrun any threats you come across...RIP my very first Para)

2. Pack Mule. Paras have very high weight for the early game. Even low level Paras can carry a lot of stuff. Just jump on it's back when you're overencumbered and it will take care of the rest. (level weight to make sure your mount doesn't get overencumbered as well)

3. Turret. As mentioned, Paras have an in-built turret mode to root out enemies. It has a pretty long range too so if your out exploring it can come in handy. (level Health and Melee Damage in case your Para gets jumped)

4. Berry Harvester. By far the easiest way to get berries is to use a Para. Need Narcoberries to make Narcotics? Use a Para! Need Mejoberries for tames? Use a Para! (level weight to carry as much berries as you can!)

My name is ShinyChimchar01 and if you like my tip, please up to let me know! I've done the same tips on the Trike and Raptor and my next tip will be on the Carbonemys.

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.

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.

If you name these as locations like west gate 1 or something then set them to player detection mode, they work as a great alarm system.

Ok. Paras are very useful even for the best of players they can show where enemies are and can scare away medium sized creatures (raptors bugs dilos etc.) there awesome.
