How do I kill a therizinosaurus? therizinosaurus encountering and battling strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Sooooooooooooooooo ummmmm I got to 98.7 and some how they woke up and killed me. R.I.P. Big Bertha my trike she killed 3 theras out of 7 one like for one amber.
Me: Tries to kill a lv 4 of these with a lv 74 Spino
Theri: Does at least 5,000 damage to me
Spino: Has only around 16,000 health “ouch”
Me: Thought that would be a easy opponent since I destroyed everything in my way barely taking damage from them
ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW: Therizino
It's VERY AGGRESSIVE, has High Health, High Speed & High Damage output.
Avoid at any cause til you can tame them cos these guys are endgame boss killers and are not worth the trouble unless it means you can bring one back home.
Trap them easily by placing 4 stone foundations and 1 wall high all around except on one of the sides, which will leave 2 walls off, bait it in there while using a flyer, high hp pteranodon or an average hp argentavis, while it's in there with you, quickly place those 2 last walls on that one side and it's trapped, fly out. Kill any carnivore around the place to make sure it doesn't come and ruin your taming.
Knock these guys out using tranq arrows or darts, tame them with mejoberries, also have a steady supply of narcoberries cos you gotta need to forcefeed them around 1500-2000 just to have them stay down, don't forget to put down spike traps around it when it's knocked out cos some aggressive dinos will attack it, better be safe than sorry regarding these guys.
Tame level 125 or above therizinos til you get one theri with 8874 HP or above, and one theri with 330 Melee or above, breed them wil you get 1 female and 1 male with the high hp stat and high melee stat.
Breed those 2 til you have 16 in total not counting the ones you are breeding.
Level those 16 guys up in hp and melee and put about 20 veggie cakes in each of them, and ofc use the best therizino saddle blueprint you got.
Use these 16 theriz with 1 mammoth, 1 yuty, 1 deadon and 1 rex against all bosses.
The rex is meant to take aggro from the theriz and yourself since theriz counts as a medium sized dino and bosses will aggro on the largest tames first aka your yuty or in this case the rex instead.
This gives you some space and time for you to switch between using the mammoth debuff on the boss and the yutys buff on your own dinos, also giving you some space to use deadon to heal you theriz even more which will save some of the veggie cakes. since they can be hard to come by in such a big numbers.
Theriz harvest hide, fiber and wood extremely well making crafting saddles and building huge wooden bases lot easier, combined with a doed which harvest stone, one of the best stone structure gathering duo in Ark Island
There you have it.
THEY ARE NOT A PASSIVE DINO THEY ARE NOT A PASSIVE DINO THEY ARE VERY POWERFUL IF YOU ARE A NEW PLAYER DO NOT ENGAGE WITH THEM THEY ARE AGGRESSIVE
If you wanna kill one here are the steps: 1. Tame a trike. 2.find theri. 3. Use the trikes charge attack to stun it for a little bit of time. 4. Once it gets close attack the theri and push it back and repeat until it dies. Also the use of this is for items,xp, and for making sure it doesn't destroy your base and tames :)
I tried to tame one it didn't work I tried using my bola but that didn't work. it completely destroyed everything almost killing my iguanodon and I had to send all of my dinosaurs onto it and it took me 5 minutes to kill it with 15 dinos.
The agro range of the therizinosaurus is small but don’t under estimate it’s power. It’s nick name is Edward scissor hands
Chicken o' death. That's it avoid at all costs it will happily kill you but it eats berries so don't be confused
I found an equus and then it ran away so I was like screw it I'll just go back home. I saw something white and I was hold up what's that. Look get a closer look, it was a unicorn. And I was imma tame it. Boy was I wrong, this guy started attacking my pteranodon, and my brilliant idea was to walk up and punch it because I'm stupid. And then it hit me once and I was ooooh okay imma run now. Yeaaah, I did not get away.
I find it on beaches near rocks
Peace of advice. Run. Just run.
Their weakness is spike walls (but don’t let them see you!). People need to know!
Best words to describe this dinosaur : Goochie goochie goo!!!
I only got a chance of taming this sort of early in game because managed to find a good spot on top of a tall rock where it can't reach, and shoot tranq arrows. Scared to tame a 2nd one. It killed me in like 2+ swipes as I still was new then. Now the same Theriz that killed me once is my best friend.
Therizinosaurus more like Therifying osaurus
If you get at least 2 raptors you can take down a 45 level one.
To escape a therizinosaurus:
1) panick!!! (AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH)
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
for the person who asked why this damages stone, it only does with its headbutt attack(which also induces torpor)
