What is a raptor used for? raptor battling strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
So basically, I'm new to Ark and I Caught a level 4 raptor. I named it Echo and i usually ride him when hunting for meat. Then I learned that they are actually great tames when gathering meat and running away but make sure to upgrade it's health and stamina so that he can endure attacks long enough to run away. Make sure to protect it well especially if it's low level. I hope this helps and take care.
There useful for lots of stuff... hunting, protection, killing aggressive dinos around your base or you have spike walls and there's a neutral dino around you base that's a brontosaurus or a pair of high lvl therizinosaurus ... they have good health after lvl 35 and can do great damage.. they do 1-3 hits a second cause of there amazing attack speed and if you have a pack of em then just go out and kill strong high lvl dinos or alpha raptors and carnos
