I find it on beaches near rocks
For most dinos you build a trap and lure it in.
For a Theri, that's wrong. You still build a solid structure... but it's for YOU. You don't dance with this thing trying to get it in... you build a shark cage made of window-walls to KEEP IT OUT.
I have never seen one of these murderous mofos flee very far, if at all, from torpor. They'll keep trying to slice your face off right until they keel over. Build a window-bunker nearby, cower inside while you tranq it.
You have NO IDEA how fast their torpor drops, so be prepared for that. But you'll die a lot less if you immediately turn and run for your bunker as soon as it aggro to you then shoot it from within, rather than trying to maneuver it into a trap.
If you see this, get going, pack ya bags you are moving to tahiti. But seriously, if you see this RUN!!
If you see this, your fked if you don't have a rapper to get away with because I literally died over 50 times and I know if this thing was not extinct we would all die and would not exist. It is a big dodo bird with three fingers the size of someone's head RUUUUN LEAVE ALL YOUR FRIENDS BEHIND ITS THEIR PROBLEM
Not hard to tame them. U must come prepared. You do the hunting missions and get one bow that has around 300 dmg if im not wrong. Use that bow with tranqs you need wayyy less shots. Build a raft trap with stone door frames. Make a ramp and lure it into the trap. Dont waste narcos to keep ot down just look for some cnidarias, kill them and use bio toxin. :)
for the person who asked why this damages stone, it only does with its headbutt attack(which also induces torpor)
lvl 10 male
105 citronal
525 narcotic
Each citronal = 5 narcotic
When he eat give him 5 narcotic
With this method his torpor stay the same as he about to eat
Idc what lvl you are if you see this with out a tame you are screwed. It will look at you for a second and ask you do you really want these hands… in .03 secs it chips you up. Fun fact if you are on a tame lower then the chicken of doom it will attack you too.
These guys are very tough to beat early and potentially mid game. If you have a Spino or another large carnivore mount, you can destroy them easily. They also can drop keratin so you can use that for cementing paste and other recipes.
I have 2 powerful raptors and it can kill it fast but my raptors have to heal up.
I just started Ark on my phone a month ago, and I found a bunch of therizinosaurs near my base and my tip if you just started STAY AWAY. it’s not worth it they’re too fast you can’t run away from them, even a level one therizinosaurs have over 1000 health, and the do not leave.
Its hard to kill because if you want to go on a rock it will come to no matter how much its height
Tips on this annoying thing.
1: It has terrible vision and mainly uses sense of hear, it won’t see you u less you are a couple raptors away in length. 2: I know lots of people are saying to outrun it… but it really hard it runs really hard so the best way to get away is to get one something high.
3: If you are looking to kill/tame it you need to build a big tower and rain fire down at it the best way to do this is to get high enough so it is out of range of you so it won’t attack your builds, if you do this right it should look up at you and you should be able to hit it in the head. 4: The things you need to kill it are just a crossbow/bow and around 100-250 arrows (this depends on how much you miss and the level.) Spears work too but not as good, then you just need good walk speed and a good tall structure. 5: These things can kill a player in a couple hits because I’m pretty sure it does percentage damage instead of just regular damage.
I know all of this stuff because me and my dad were playing trying to explore when one of these things attacked us, dad eventually killed it for revenge and it was awesome seeing it dead. But my point is that I wish dad would have tamed it instead but killing it was fine but a waste of arrows.
It can hit stone but only does 1 dam a hit but that’s only if it’s wild if it’s tamed it can’t
So stone traps still work
If you see this thing RUN it killed me in 2 hit
i just taming try taming it with a high level trike. and it works, because i can hit the therizino on his head, when the therizino attack my trike. and i tamibg two therizino at the same time. you just didn't have to unmount when you're on your trike
Always keep a trike with you because the trikes knockback will stop it from killing you helping to kill it
