I actually tamed one of these on accident. I had built a trap for taming a Trike and when searching for one to agro I got jumped at by a Thyla and freaked out and ran to my base but the beast just jumped right into my trap. After that it was easy to knock him out with my tranqs. I named him Cole btw, he was a great guy. But just like any story about your perfect pet on ark.... you lose them. We were on a metal run and I was taking him because he can jump far. When I saw some metal I got off and started hitting it but suddenly I got attacked by 3 terror birds and Cole jumped right off a cliff to catch one. Normally these guys can survive a fall but after saving me from the terror bird he had fallen into a swamp :( . Instantly he was ambushed by a Kapro and two Sarcos. He fought well and killed the first Sarco but in the end he died. I have a gravestone at my old base which reads “ here lies a great frienship that came about by what seems to have been chance but was the invisible connection between him and his soon to be owner that would spend so much time together and still be protecting his beloved friend to his death.” RIP Cole 😰😥😭

This valiant Thyla who life was so unfair to. I just wish I had more time to tell him how much he meant to me. 😟

I'm a perfectionist so I never end up taming one of these with cooked prime meat or lamb chops for like 70% taming effectiveness (they prefer cooked meat to raw meat) but also getting exceptional kibble is such a drag even though it's absolutely worth it.

In summary if you aren't too lazy get exceptional kibble and breed these, an imprinted one is the mount you'll use 90% of the time

(We love you Cole! :D)

You can use a snow owl's heat vision ablitiy to see thylas in trees!

The redwoods are now basically a no fly zone, I lost a quetz, and a pter to these b******s. They jump out of the tree, rip you off your mount, and then pin you and your mastercraft armor to the ground and murder you.

My hate for these guys is immeasurable

It all started when I played ark for the first time, I had managed to tame a high level tapejara and absolutely love him. I named him Barry and we set off on many adventure exploring the island. On day I was just flying through the redwoods and usual taunting the carnivores below me for not being able to touch me. BAM the thylacolia jumped out the trees and ripped me off Barry. Barry was whistled on nuetral and as he came down to aid me a desperately tried to get him on passive, but I was panicking, my screen shook as I was terrified as this was my first encounter of one. I tried to punch it but I inevitably died. I respawned and immediately got on my pteradon but just as I got on the saw the message in big red letters that Barry had fallen to the thylacoleo.

My Barry rest in peace

You can't even run from these. Just accept your quick and painful death.

I was upset the app doesn't have it listed in Fjördur, but Thylas are actually on the map. Let's try to get it updated!

Thylacoleo has a bleed effect that does % of hp damage over a small amount of time. i killed my first titanosaur with my thyla but attacking and running when it agro’d BUT you can’t let the bleeding deal the finishing blow. This just happened and my thyla and I didn’t get the xp.

Hit the sky button so people don’t make my mistake and miss out on heaps of xp 🤥

They prefer cooked meat over raw. Don't waste your precious raw mutton, better cook it, as it tames faster and with higher efficiency.

Set a parasaur on turret mode and fly over redwoods carrying it with a flyer. Any of these things will get marked.

Thylacoleo are capable of pinning down flyers in mid-flight (anything but the Quetz and Wyvern, I believe), other Thylacoleo, and even Therizinos. You can also jump from object to object by holding down the jump button while pouncing from a tree or cliff (have to hit it at the right angle, however).

You can fight this bad boi even when he grabs you. Just make sure you have a decent sword and good armor, and you should be fine. I got grabbed off my argi and I just started swinging. It died, and I didn’t. Proceeded to find one, haul it back to my base and tame it

It's basically the Randy Orton of Ark.

It just RKOS's you outta nowhere...

Rip Cole we thank thee for your service…🥺😔

388 points   ⚔️ Encountering   Dec 2, 2020   Report

They will jump on you and murder you even if you're on a fricking wyvern. You are not safe from them no matter what animal you have. Just accept your slow and tender death. I learned it the hard way lmao. Scared the fckng hell out of me

Why does this have titanaboa kibble as an essential recipe it doesn’t even like it and it’s not on ark mobile

These cats always perfectly land on your back.

Hey, don’t you guys think there should be a thyla tek saddle? I think there should be more tek saddles, bc there’s only 5 rn when there could be a lot more. Plus, imagine what the ark devs could think of with a thyla tek saddle!
