When wild they are a pest, they steal your stuff and murder your tames.

But when tamed, they are amazing, have a pego, set it on somebody, it will then steal whatever is in their last hotbar slot, if they have nothing it will take a random item.

Better still, tame a whole army, they will Rob your victim of literally everything, berry seeds, superior kibble, guns, broken pickaxes, cryopodded pets, saddles, life, their job. . .

Nothing is safe from a pego army. . .

You can pick what it steal so as a shoulder mount so when I put it on eggs I lost it so when it came back with an army of angry Dino’s and a Wyvern and now my main base is fifty percent destroyed but I have a wyvern 🔼 for info

HE STOLE 20 DOORS FROM ME AND 50 CIELINGS

These are the way I got my Ascendant Fabricated Sniper Rifle at level 32

Lvl health and movement speed, set it to Fast Pick Pocketing spyglass a target and whistle attack my target.

They make a cool evil sidekick, that's for sure.

They will farm berries when on wander. [I've played this game for years and only just learnt this. 🤦🏻‍♀️]

These things are surprisingly good as an early game tame. They are mostly useless in pve, but are a great substitute when you can't find dilos. They're easy to tame and are surprisingly vicious when you up their speed and attack. I have a lv50+ I tamed at lv 19 (has only been a few hours since starting the save file). Since getting him, he's usually the first to attack and kill the target.

This is the ultimate combo. Pego, troodons and seagulls

If you want to loot a guy without leaving a trace , here is how you do it.

1: pego problems, send a squadron of pegos to pick pocket your target just to piss them off.

2: seagull stealing, next send your seagull fleet to steal their items while they are chasing the pegos. If you are lucky, the seagulls will take the item they are using or the ammunition for the item

3: troodon terror, lastly, so they don’t know what happened, send your troodons to put them to sleep with their venom attack, they won’t know what hit them and you will walk away with all of their loot, if you are feeling like they have more stuff on them, grab narcotics and put them to sleep even more, then search his body. And boom free loot for the minimal price of lost tames. Hope this helps you pick pocket the alpha tribe!
