More Pulmonoscorpius Utility Tips
In my opinion, these guys are the best, go on, say i am weird.
First, they are very easy to tame, all you need is a few spoiled meats and a bola, tranq arrows or even slingshots will do.
Second, after they are tamed, they are super useful, you can use them for cheap creature knock-outs, plus, if you tamed one in a cave, then use it for exploration, nothing in the cave can pick on you, making it easy to get to the artifacts.
Third, they are super easy to care for, they eat spoiled meat as well, so if a stack of meat spoils in its inventory, it will still eat them.
They have decent speed, stamina and melee damage, and can cross over tough terrain that most dinosaurs can’t.
Plus cool
Hmm something weird to this guys
if you the scorpion everywhere except inside the cave every carnivore and other creature attacks your scorpion but if you tame a scorpion inside the cave everything won’t attack you… if you hit them they will attack you but after a few seconds they will stop attacking your scorpion in but if you tame a scorpion outside the cave everything attacks but if you tame it inside the cave everything wont aggro you and your scorpion when your riding or not riding but everyone will attack you when your dismount at your scorpion they will attack you but they are not gonna kill your scorpion whyyyy?!
Ok these guys need a TLC patch.
First patch: being able to choose to use its tail for less damage but more torpor, or use its claws for more damage but no torpor.
Second new ability: grabbing a small Dino with its claws only being able to use its tail for attacking while picking up a Dino. Perfect for taming!

Thorny dragon or Pulmonoscorpious. Which is better?
Thornys and scorpions are some of the only nock-out tames in the game. They both deal a good amount of torpor, but which is better to knock?
Using the stats of a lvl 1 equs, dodoex says that it will take 10 stings from a scorpion or 105 thorny needles from a base lvl to knock a lvl 1 equs. It might seem that the thorny dragon is immediately disqualified, but hold on a second. The thorny shoots 10 quills at a time, so if we divide 105 by 10 we get 10.5, meaning you will need to get almost eleven full hits to knock out. Taking in account that is is hard to get full hits, the number of shots you need to take is much greater than a pulmo. Thus the pulmo is the best out of the two! Thx for reading!
