What is a plesiosaur used for? plesiosaur battling strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Anyone else think that the plesi looks like a backwards mosa. Its neck and head makes it look like the mosas tale and its tale looks like the mosas head. Like the bronto that was only a misplaced brachiosaurus neck and tale, this is why the brontosaurus is not an actual dino
I don’t agree that it’s just a worse Mosa. I think these guys are underrated. I use one to wipe out mantas in a couple hits when I want to tame a basil, or just to clear out an area, because it wipes out groups of megs just as easily. The trick is to stay above things (aggro everything and go up), stay still, and spam left click. All gone. Plus, staying above things means you can quite easily protect whatever is on the platform.
They are the fastest sea creature if you want to level speed, but if not sharks will almost keep up, giving you an ocean caravan and a perfect alpha hunting pack.
