Tips & Strategies

These guys give a crap-ton of meat/hide when killed, depending on if you’re using a pick or hatchet. Also, not that difficult to spot when buried (on mobile at least), especially in the winter area. Just look for a brown bump that doesn’t match the surrounding area.

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.

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.
They should make an update where we can saddle these. They are the size of Sabertooths and dire wolves so I still don’t get why there is a saddle for this. Imagine riding these UNDERGROUND!
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.
