How do I kill a therizinosaurus? therizinosaurus battling strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Killing this creature is easy. Take an Argentavis and then King Kong it (Fly around the head in circles, attacking each time you swoop in).
Pride/army crawl then it won’t attack you.
I swear every time I turn my back this thing creeps closer to me
So here’s my experience. It spawned around 40 meters from my base, and within probably 2 or 3 days in comes closer and closer. So I decided that I had to kill this evil chicken head. I got my high damage bow out, pearched at my ‘scout’ area and waited. I lost track of where is went though. It was quick as hell and EXTREMELY POWERFUL. Trust me and everyone else writing tips here. It sneaked up behind me and demolished my tames and eventually me. So, I suggest you find high grounds, somewhere it CANT get on, or maybe on a flying tame. Shoot It with a bow or anything. If you aren’t equipped to kill this thing, and it spawned somewhere close to you I suggest you move out. Goodluck!
Therizinosaurus had similar-looking cousins, deinocheirus being a good example.
Killed a lvl 1 barely and a level 7 later mauled me to death...
Why are you guys saying these guys are so scary? I’m lv twenty nine and I went out with 350 narcotics 4 stacks of narcoberries 5 stacks of tranq arrows and three crossbows along with 2 more stacks of each kind of berry and finally 9 megalo egg kibble and what happens?
It goes down at 700 hp originally 1000 (these are estimated) and then I balm it and use megalo kibble and one kibble game it! Wasted all that! Bull crap. Y’all are noobs. Pros are scared of theris and a noob just tamed one lol.
Ok so if you just started ark and you see this little bugger quickly run(or hop on a mount):and get the hell out. Once they agro they will follow you for so long
These bastards will kill everything you own. You can outrun them, but once aggro they will chase you and wont stop. Avoid at low levels, unless you want to lose ALL your tames and house.
okay so if you want to kill that thing on your own, and you have at least lvl 13 then you might have a chance. i have two ways, one with and one without a pteranodon (or any other flying thing). without ptera: build two spike walls in a V shape. make sure there is a small gap between those so you can run through. make sure the therizino is not too far away and hit it with a bow. it should chase you. now just run through the little gap, the therizino should get cought up and “fight” the spike walls (he'll die after a while). with a ptera you can just attack him from the air and lure him to the spikes. stay in the air or fly further away, he'll die after a while. i've killed about 15 therizinos now with that and i'm still using it with lvl 54 ^^” they're just too scary
Found one wandering around my base. I immediately moved after that therinzo killed my fav parasaur on a resource run. Rip jimmy.
Once you have a gun and flier, these become pretty easy to kill. Find a cliff above them or a tall rock and land with flier, then just shoot them in the head. I've killed many doing this. You have to be careful that you are up high enough so that you can't be hit, and be sure when dismounting you don't walk off the edge. If your flier isn't on follow it could result in your death
I got on top of a rock and the tickle chickens head points through took a good 40 stone arrows to kill a lvl 1
If you see one up close you're in in trouble, so I recommend staying a far distance from it.
This tank will ruin you early game. It was basically my arch nemesis until I got a Rex.
I had a pack of 5 raptors he killed them all.
They are just almost as strong as rexes, faster in the wild and just like its nemesis, capable of aggroing on almost anything tamed.
The one and only thing that makes this creature so deadly is how weak it looks at first; If you can't fight rexes, you probably can't fight them either. Make your choices wisely.
Watch out this thing is just as powerful as a Rex!!!
Note to self never ever mess with it killed all my animals
Saw one across a river. I knew about these guys and ran for my life!
