What is a procoptodon used for? procoptodon utility tips and strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
✨UNDERRATED!✨
Not only is the Procoptodon both fast and durable, but it’s also great at gathering resources! It’s two attacks are a bite and knock-back kick which packs quite a punch. Its stamina is incredible even at a low lvl, and it’s amazing jump can get you out of a messy situation fast. They can out-jump any creature!
Great tame!

If you use it’s kick attack and time it well then it’s possible to kill lots of stuff without taking any damage. Another thing is that their kick attack doesn’t hit in front of them. It also hits around their sides, which is useful when fighting hordes of creatures. However it’s damage is pretty low so you probably shouldn’t use it for combat.
This guy can take on small-medium carnivores like raptors or carnos without getting hit. It has decent knockback with a weak attack but good stamina and movement speed (including backwards movement). Time your hits right and keep going backwards and alot of threats are no longer a problem! Be careful because his high jump can mean taking alot of fall damage so I suggest upgrading health quite a bit
The only reason I have these guys is for bio toxin. If you go to the val ab cave there’s a circle of red mushrooms down by the portal rings and if you press the L2 attack (PS4) you get about 20 bio toxin per mushroom and you can run around kicking all the mushrooms and you can get about 1k bio toxin in 1 min and they respawn like bushes so by the time you’ve ran through all the mushrooms they’ve already respawned so basically infinite bio toxin. If you need rare mushrooms you can get about 3k in 1 min and about 500 rare flowers in 1 min.
