This might just be a big but I’m not sure so anyway I’ve been playing on the center map and my fav place to go when looking to lv up tames is the lava biom(can’t spell lol) so I went their this with my raptor and hit a tree while hiting a wolf and ended up gathering coal, pretty cool and just to check if it was just a random occurrence i tamed another raptor and hit another tree and boom more coal so if u play on center and are lookin for a fastish way to get coal go to lava biom with a raptor and hit trees, but make sure u bring a raptor with good weight. Anyways thanks for reading-Legiana
More Raptor Utility Tips
This is possibly the only dino that's still will be effective from the beginning to the end stage, these things have a pack buff that really isn't gonna do anything to bosses,, but historical we always learn outnumbering an enemy is a guaranteed win, get two raptors and breed them together till you have a gang of them, put points mostly in health stamina and melee damage and with the pack buff these freaking machines will start attacking nonstop even if one deals 40 damage their fast strikes kill even brontosauruses
Do not use this for caves, you will die. I tried to run lower south today and I died and so did my raptor. I have done lower souths billions of times, never had I actually remotely struggled, I would even do it on foot. The new araneo tlc makes it impossible to use a raptor in caves do to the damage it will take. Everything was high level or max level and the raptor which did 600 damage with 6k health couldn’t survive. Just take a barry or a thyla but not a raptor.
Raptors are essentially better Dilos. Whe lacking the poisonous blinding spit of a Dilo, they have a much better DPS due to their speed. In groups of three or more they benefit from a pack boost, and in groups of at least four I notice they tend to take on bigger threats on the Ark (notably Sarcos and Kapros). Plus their pounce ability is not to be overlooked.
In short, tame Dilos for the early game, but Raptors as you move into mid game.
