3 reasons why this should have more uses like being rideable:

Should be able to be picked up by argentavis. It’s litterally the same size of a dire wolf, which can be picked up by argentavis.

If this think got a new TLC or something, I recommend they should be rideable ( looking at you Wildcard! ) and the saddle should be unlocked at level 51, ( same level as a very dangerous redwoods creature, thylaceo ) or 64. These also should be like moving while digging ( like the basilisk ) but can’t be unmounted when underground.

👆 if you thought this was reasonable and should be added!

Petition for wild card:

Should be able to pick em w argy

Should be able to be ridden

How can you ride a sheep but not this? Upbote this so they see CR

Why does this purlovia couldn’t be riden?! Its in perfect size to be able to be riden!

They can essentially be utilized in two ways, as land mines since they have an ambush attack or as hidden treasure chests.

I've been trying to plant veggies on pvp and they kept getting stolen so i tamed me a badger and set him next to my crops and caught the thief and let's just say he's behind bars.

Argys SHOULD BE ABLE TO CARRY THESE

Never underestimate a max level max damage well placed purlovia

Pros: you can bury them underground and put them on passive for a hidden storage box. You could bury them and put them on neutral or aggressive and when you get raided your enemies won't even have a clue what hit them.

They knock enemies off mounts and stun them.

They do crazy damage.

Cons: sometimes I even have a hard time remembering and finding where I buried them.

How to tame: find one that's already attacking something, when it wins the fight lure it into a dino trap and tame it. (If its badly injured give it time to regain health before taming).

Otherwise If you try looking for one under the ground it will stun you and most likely kill you.

Sort of like the drop bears here in australia except they attack from below.

Everyone talking about how they need to be ridable, actually read the dossiers and find out why they can't be ridden, especially this line "not suited to the life of a mount", also look at them, they have a far too slim build and skinny legs to be ridden, and for the in-game reason, firstly it would be kind-of OP to have a mount that can lie in wait invisibly for an enemy player or creature to walk over then stun them and do huge amounts of damage before they can fight back, secondly, they'd probably need some sort of special gear like a really long snorkel to stay under permanently with a rider, thirdly, the saddle would look ridiculous since you'd probably have to have a lot of straps and lie down on your stomach on its back. But still, one can't help but imagine the possibilities for say, surviving raids on your tribe's base by hiding underground or placing C4 in strategic positions around the underside of your enemies floors... But let's just say riding purlovias is better in mods.

Everyone stop wasting time with suggestions here. Just go and suggest on the ark discord

One day, I was in the redwoods with my assault rifle killing terror birds, and then out of nowhere, this boy jumps out and scares the flip out of me. So I run back to Pterry Cruise, (my pteranodon) and fly as fast away as I could. I circled back and filled him with holes.

You are already dead

Badger badger badger badger badger MUSHROOM MUSHROOM . Badger badger badger badger badger AHH ITS A SNAKE ITS A SNAKE . Badger badger badger badger badger

They are to small to ride (I disagree) but you can’t pick up with argie?! But you can pick up dinos 10X that weight!!!!!?? HmMMmMmm

Found some along the river between the Redwoods and the volcano!

Obvious landmines. Cautious approach. Flawless tames. Perilous trek back to base... Due to them with a bad case of ADHD and getting stuck. Hencefore twins known as Herpa & Derp.

Standard ko tame. Don't use arrows for higher lvl ones unless u have to or else there is a good chance it will die. USE A TAMING PEN!!
