More Thylacoleo Utility Tips
This is an amazing cave creature especially for scorched earth but very annoying to tame, definitely have a longneck. RIP COLE
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).
Hey, donβt you guys think there should be a thyla tek saddle? I think there should be more tek saddles, bc thereβs only 5 rn when there could be a lot more. Plus, imagine what the ark devs could think of with a thyla tek saddle!
These things don't exist on mobile so don't waste your time looking for them.
Wonderful mount to grab, the best part is the climbing cliffs. Run right up to them and hit and hold the jump button, if you can do it you can climb the mountains. They also have a bleed effect that helps when dealing with large predators or high health dinos.
Yes, they are evil jump and pin guys sometimes they carry you off for a distance, best defence is to always be prepared with a strong spear on hand, when they stun wait till the timer is done and then jab away. I find an easy tame method, hit em from extreme range with a really strong long rifle and electrolized tranq darts or regulars. Keep mounted on a decent health tame and keep shooting till it goes down.
Oh and after taming, you can sit on them and fire your rifle while mounted, so they are great for taming more of their own kind.
Hah, who needs kangoroos. These can jump almost 4 walls high and have so much stamina.
It does 5% of any creatures health so they can kill about anything in 100 seconds.
If their bleed kills something, they don't receive XP for it.
They're useful for escaping places and getting food but when you get a Megalania then these guys just get left behind
Also to all the mobile users, STOP ASKING, THEY'RE NOT ADDING THEM BECAUSE OF HOW COMPLEX THE CONTROLS FOR THE THYLA ARE
Don't fly next to them, they will eat your bird...
