How do I kill a pegomastax? pegomastax battling strategies in ARK: Survival Evolved.
Me sees Pego for first time: ooo cool!
Pego:go away
Me: gives anything to tame Pego
Pego:Imma just steal this girls stuff
Pego: takes stuff and runs off
Me:HEY YOU HAVE VIOLATED THE LAW!
Pego:throws stuff off cliff
Me:you little shit...
Pego:hah you thought you stood a chance!
I hate these things so much, I went to get some crystals, had to land my pteranodon to get its stam back, 3 of these things team on me and steal my narcotics and tranq arrows. I chased them into a literal death pit of carnos, dilos and sarcos and manage to get half of my narcotics back. I HATE THEM
I WAS TAMING A MEGATHERIUM AND THE I SEE
“Your Spino level 389 was killed by pegostmax level 2”
“Your Gigantosaurus level 167 was killed by level 2 pegostmax”
Along with my carno my Rex my 6 trikes and my dodo.
Don't let them steal your night vision goggles!
If you’re tired of getting robbed of gear try this. Put spoiled meat as your last item in your hotbar and carry a few stacks of meat. They’ll typically take your spoiled meat since it’s the last item and you’ll replace it over and over.
Put Mejoberries in your last slot of tool bar for instant tame if lower level and/or to protect you other items from theft.
Enjoy
The pegomastax stole my rocket launcher... be careful with these little guys, they appear out of nowhere.
Why is it so ugly
They'll steal everything but your affection. Thank God it prefers stuff in your last hotbar slot. Put crap in there and laugh as it runs off thinking it's very clever.
Imagine you just put one piece of spoiled meat into the last slot of hot bar and pego steals it….
Me: meh
Many if not all ground mounts don't protect you from being robbed, so while I used to argue that a fast raptor is as good as a bird you'll have an empty inventory when you get there soooo I guess the fun's over
They say they only take a random item but they always seem to steal your most valuable item, or whatever you intended to kill them with
Do not carry anything valuable around these things the first time I ever got a pike this pegomastax ambushes me steals my pike and gets away
If you have berries in your last item slot they tame instead of taking your most valuable item. Then you can kill tjem without running away or set them to terrorize other players. Once they take something it imediately despawns from their inventory meaning that you cant get those cryo'd tames back.
Kill it.kill it kill it kill it
I go out of my way to kill all and everything
It stole one off my cryopods and just disappeared like a ninja never got that cryo back
I’ve seen them spawn in ark genesis oceans
I play on SP and got a 160 Wyvern egg. I built a trap (4 B.Gate) for milk and went there to set the trap, stopped to recharge stam and this little fella just stole my gates. I couldn't chasing him, he went to the Red Woods and there's the cat on the trees. Really sad.
Me in the redwoods trying to tame equus
Random pegi stole all my rockarrots
Me: get compound bow out
Then there's more pegos
