ARK: Survival Evolved & Ascended Companion
Tips & Strategies

These guys are so cute and I heard they glide so I would say it is a pretty useful for beginners and travelling around the map, chitin is kinda common because of bugs and them being almost everywhere this guy sounds like it’s early game. And I find it funny that it will attack you if u have chitin armour. Imagine you just walking around exploring the map and then this little guy starts attacking you. I love the idea of this creature and I can’t wait for lost island to come out :D
More Sinomacrops Encountering Tips
Who actually thought that giving my cat gliding abilities was a good idea
Sinomacrops will become enraged at the sight of chitin, whether that be armour or bugs. Do not wear chitin armour when taming these guys and make sure you are in an area clear of bugs.
Good luck survivor!
I wonder if it will go crazy at you if u tame it and then put on chitin armour

Like a microraptor and archaeopteryx combined
It lives in Ferngully. It's name is Batty.
Having trouble finding them along the beaches these days ? No problem , go to bottom right of lost island map 80 90 80 90 that grid square has all the ones I tamed .....full of predators wear ghile armor when feeding
Would love to use this all the time since I'm always getting attacked by small dinos
I know I’m a bit late but if you want a sinomacrops early I suggest to spawn at boskar beach there’s a swamp there which lots of dung Beatles, dragonfly’s, and snails they also spawn pretty commonly there too just be careful of snakes kapros and barys
The sinomacrops will scare away ferox even when agro only scream is on so don’t make the mistake I did
