Tips & Strategies

Most people don’t seem to know this, but they can be found in large numbers in the snow area on the island. Personally, I was at the area where it was ice turning to regular grass, and I saw around 6 just walking around there, but sadly I couldn’t harvest them because there was also a pack of rexes and carnos, and it wouldn’t be worth it. -Zakiel

When u need one u will never find one
When I was on like level 20 in single player i used to find these guys everywhere, and i thought they were only useful for a handful of chitin. Now I’m on level 88 and i actually NEED black and silicia pearls and oil I haven’t seen one in months.
I wanna tame one :]
who doesn't want one?
Kill on site they give chitin oil and pearls when you need them they disappear
Use a hatchet or megatherium to harvest for max silica pearls and oil. Gives about a stack of chitin with a primitive metal hatchet and loads with the mega.
All you need is a spear or pike and you have a good source of silica pearls,black pearls,and chitin st low levels.
On the island .. the bottom left island. Coords aprox 80 lat, 35 long. Usually a common first spawn place. All around that little u shaped island
Beware I brought a Rex to fight it but my rex died in deep water
They seem to spawn in the south of the standard island map, usually near the water on a sandy beach at dusk and dawn
