ARK: Survival Evolved & Ascended Companion
Tips & Strategies
Let me tell you something. Parasaurs are very smart and even though they are week they NEVER GIVE UP. WHY? It's because I have story with my parasaur. So in the wild I was taking a parasaur and in the wild they are not smart and do GIVE up. One hit on it, and the parasaur goes coocoo crashing into rocks and ALWAYS running to dangerous places. AND this was my first time playing ARK and I was so happy I tamed one(named him Pary) and so 9 seconds later a dilophosaur appeared! For me that was a big deal cause it was my first time playing so it killed me. I was thinking it will be over cause its night, my parasaur is probably gonna die and I lost all my stuff. So I decided to just carry on. So the next day, I wanted to look for some hide. Then I saw a parasaur on the beach and I'm happy that there is hide si right when I'm about to throw the spear at its head. I NOTICED IT WAS PARRY AND HE WAS CARRYING ALL MY STUFF! That's when I started to call every parasaur-Parry! For what he did!-Sasha

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 itβs 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.
1. Find a good level pary
2. Craft a bola and use it
3. Knock it out a high level pary will not get knocked out by fists or bat
4. Get into the Dododex app then type in parasaur what level it is the it will tell you
How much food it needs
5. Put narcotic in its inventory (if you play on Xbox switch or ps4 press the right trigger every eight seconds on t narcotic the parasaur will eat the food on its own)
6. You have a pary!! Congratulations!
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.
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.
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.
Taming at max effectiveness is easy, basic kibble is the easiest kibble to make in the game with extra small eggs being the 'hardest' ingredient. (go get a dodo first.) Only a little is needed for a lvl 150 para. Bola it first, then hit it in the head with a bat. Repeat until it's unconcious, load it up with kibble, and done! Enjoy your max level max effective Para. They make good pack mules, good long distance mounts, and great security. And they're better at harvesting berries than you are!
