Tips & Strategies
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
If you go green obelisk there is a ravine with a river that lead to the ocean. There are tons of sino,s there as well as chitin dropping creatures. Be carefully cuz there are deadly dinos there
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
Don't move til it lands, it will spook. Your tames, both rideable and shoulder pets will spook it as well. Passive tame with chitin.
There’s a glitch where the health goes down instead of the food, check the tame tracker to see if you have one that’s glitched. I haven’t seen one fox itself yet when this happens but who knows it’s Ark!
I wear one on my back that is the same or a similar color to my armor; I’m about to tell you why. Let’s say I get picked off of my flier in PvP, I can make it look like I’m falling, then when the attacker leaves I can fly back up to my mount before landing. Or I could accidentally unmount my flier 200 feet above ground because I’m an idiot, and just fly right back up. They also scare pegomastax and itcthyornis along with other small creatures when on Auto-Scream. Very helpful. The sinomacrops also excels as a travel buddy, but make sure it doesn’t run out of food!
It’s a bag it’s a bitty bat meow looks like it will be a shoulder mount
Would love to use this all the time since I'm always getting attacked by small dinos
Not only does it glide like the wing suit, it also flies! Yes, you can gain altitude with these tames! It does not need weight stat to carry you. Mainly level stamina. You can put a helmet on it. It can also help you swim faster and lift you out of the water by flying. You use the scare scream by going to the emote options and selecting the “Clap” emote.
If you want one super early game just spawn at the gloomy coast and get a moshchops to kill leaches (they give like 90-100 each) then get the leaches off and get a good sino with the chitin to get a jet pack. I like using them to safe spot or follow maewings to tame them.
Just don’t scare them, that scare very easily.
The Standing Torches and Sign technique will not work on console. The proximity radius restrictions are slightly higher making it easy for it to get out of the gaps.
The sinomacrops will scare away ferox even when agro only scream is on so don’t make the mistake I did
