Found mainly amongst the coasts in great numbers , they’re easily knocked out with a few club hits for beginning levels , but make sure to have a bola with you as they can easily outrun a beginner .

If you’re higher up you can use a bow / crossbow and a few tranq arrows to knock it out . The saddle for a parasaur is able to be acquired on early levels ( I think level 9) . They’re tamed within minutes whilst unconscious with any berries .

•ULTIMATE PARA GUIDE

TAME:

•30 berries.

•One slingshot.

•Only use bat if you can repair it.

•Bola (Necessary).

They are not agressive. Just bola them and slingshot them on the head or knock them out with bat. Make sure to always hit the head.

Once knocked out put berries on it's inventory, majo berries preferred. Harvest bushes around if you don't have enough berries.

Make sure to always have a saddle before taming, they're quite useless without a saddle.

UTILITIES:

•Can harvest thatch pretty well and can also get some wood and berries.

•Are fairly fast.

•Can defend you from small threats.

Pros:

•High speed

•Can hunt things like dodo

•Quick taming.

•Quick breeding.

Cons:

•Will likely die to most dinos if attacked.

•Fairly low health and damage.

•Horrible for fighting

• DO NOT TRAVEL WITH IT. PARAS DIE TO BASICALLY ANYTHING.

BREEDING:

Build a two by two thatch house without roofs, enable wandering and let them do it. The egg dies pretty quickly so make sure to be around until they finishing mating as it's pretty fast.

HATCHING:

Needs 2 campfires, putting torch on egg recommend.

Hatches fairly quick, put about 50 berries on baby's inventory.

Make sure to imprint.

PROTECTING YOUR DINO:

Make sure you have a base with spike walls around your base as soon as possible, A para can be killed by literally anything, can't defend itself basically. Build a slopped roof and put them on the top of your house if you don't have spike walls.

Put at least 30 berries on your Para's inventory, make sure to replace the food each 4-6 days.

For anyone who may be less of a beginner here’s a tip for raiding: first tame a parasaur obviously. second tame argentavis/snowy owl. third put parasaur on turret mode so it pings enemies. Last pick it up and fly around with the argentavis/snowy owl and let it ping until you find enemy base. Also the parasaur doesn’t give exact enemy types ( like if it’s a player or not) so check every mark you see.

When knocking it out hit it on the mouth you will have a easier way of saving your bolas (use a bola to keep it from running away) and they only eat berries so have a lot on hand

They are also good at getting wood, thatch and berries

And name them so if it does die you know who died

A quick guide for the single player ark mobile players out there :)

Taming - Use a bola and club/slingshot it in the face until unconscious. Then put berries (preferably mejoberries) and wait, no narcos necessary.

Saddle crafting - relatively cheap. Just kill a whack ton of dodos, dilos, and lystros to get 80 hide.

Utility - a good mount for travelling and carrying heavy materials.

Fighting capabilities - While having good stamina, it does not fare well against similar sized creatures, unless you have 2-3 - then you have a good chance against raptors and such.

This is a good mount for early game players looking to get from point A to point B

Wassup,the parasaur is perfect for exploring and scouting areas , this is mostly because of its weight which if you like collecting random useless stuff like me is perfect not to mention it's above average speed and its ability to scout areas it can also gather berries.

Finally I like to put ALL my points into health and weight so i can transport stuff easily, the drawbacks are that unlike the trike which has a giant hit box the parasaur requires aim to efficiently gather bushes .

i the end its the perfect beginner tame .

Why does no one like the parasaur compared to other gatherers? Yeah, the others might get bigger amounts of berries but even if it takes longer it has much better movement speed than for example a stego, and not only that the parasaur has decent weight that will hold much more berries, yeah, I get pumping weight on other creatures but starting off with half-decent weight is good on its own. But conversation aside, Cooked meat is better to eat anyways.
