Tips & Strategies
The thorny dragon (thorny) is the beaver of scorched earth. There's only one problem. It has little hp and dies very quickly. I recomend using a couple wolves or sabertooth to act as a bodyguard while collecting thatch and wood.

I think they should be stronger as tames. Not their stats but what if their bite attack would decrease the targets speed so a Morreallatops couldn't just run away and their torpor damage is to low I'd say. Please make Thorny Dragon viable.
Gathers wood fast and carries it at 1/5 weight stone is 1/2. Weak on the sides so if you really like this dino to patrol keep another dino with it to aid. Excellent at killing mantis to gathering organic polymer and chitin.
Great early game wood gather. Also a decent ride for early game. I donβt know what the tail needles are for though. -Fishygamer
If the ark creators are listening make tail for por more effective
I love these guys a lot because they come in so many beautiful colors
I have 12 on platforms 4 pillars high scattered around my base. I have an issuse with dino spawns in the base. So they act as a long range needle launcher. Weigh down with sand because its weight isnt affected by the dragons buff. Set all to long range aggressive and u have a protected base. Add a few plant X for added assurance. I no longer have spawn problems. Found a ready to tame terror bird today too pretty neat.
If you store things on this tame with a spoil timer it keeps it longer like a fridge or preservation bin
These guys are SO GOOD on Scorched. Make sure to tame one ASAP for a good wood harvester on a map where there aren't many good wood harvesters.
No longer carries wood at 1/5 weight, now carries at 1/2 but can now be carried by argentavis and can farm wood similar to farming metal with an argentavis and anky, upgrade melee damage to get the most wood possible.
