With the new TLC, it has OUTSTANDING thatch collecting ( 1000 in 4 trees with a max charge. ) Upvote so Dodex can see this!

How do i say this...they are a tank if faced with its head to the enemy so it takes less damage

Trikes are a great harvesting mount for berries and thatch. They also have good attacks (which do knockback to smaller dinos.) My favorite attack is the charge attack. I use it to raid wood/thatch bases. Overall great mount!

I can not stress enough to my friends how useful the trike is. Early game it makes a great pack animal. Late game in groups of three or four it can be used as a decent battle mount. Taming a trike early on can be a great way to start a large base and keep you well fed with berries.
