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.

They’re a pretty good starter tame, they naturally can hold a pretty decent amount of weight and they are good at harvesting berries.

I have 3 lvl 70+
I killed a raptor in under 2 sec and it was level 30

Everyone underestimates these, the tek ones make op metal, oil, electronic, and element dust farms, while the normal ones make good for the hide and mear ones!

Even at high level these can be useful due to how they can alert you with a location of a players, tames, and dinos

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 use this guy for everything. He is good for bringing with you for traveling long distances. (The detecting carnivore thing he does)

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.

In my opinion the best starter dinosaur you can get.
Decent movement speed with good stamina, an overall okay berry farmer with good weight and highly mobile. And this dinosaur has got very low saddle requierments and you can also shoot from it‘s back.

I suggest you to tame one.

Parasaurs are very good first tames. They have a lot of base Weight, so getting one early will allow you to put points in Health, Speed, or Fortitude and put them in Weight later on.

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.

Good first tame for starters and a good bait for taming carnivores mid game when you want to tame that carno near your base before it destroys it.👌👍

Steelslaughter,
Since I’m at level 85, I only tame the parasaurolophus for one reason: sheer boredom. However, I don’t just feed them to some random Sarco or Titanoboa soon after. I just carry them to a predator-free area with other parasaurs and unclaimed it, no harm there. No, seriously, that’s exactly what I do.

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.

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.

Super easy to breed. It will take a while to breed em, but when u get the egg put 4 camp fires around each other light em put the egg in the middle and in about 5 minutes. Good berry picker and easy to raise. Good luck with ur para 😉

Not a tip but it would be nice to see some breeding tips, so if someone has one please up it so others could see.

These are really great for trips around the ark. Justgrab your bird and then use your bird to grab the para and you can detect players and their tames. I always keep one around my base set on player and tame detection.

Gteat for starter mountd for food and narcotic berties

I always level up only stamina and health on mine because I use it whenever I go and tame a carnivore since it detects EVERY CARNIVORE
