Tips & Strategies
These guys are super OP everywhere, but especially Aberration. I was transferring over creatures from my extinction map to Aberration and wanted to bring my Velonasaur, Machine Gun. Only level 96 at the time, not as high level as my other creatures. I went out on this guy in the fertile forest and just slaughtered everything. Three ravagers, all around level 80-100 attacked, but they were no match for Machine Gun. Moral of the story is, get one of these. They are incredibly powerful! And super common in the Desert Dome

(Same guy who petitioned tranq needles)
Petition to be able to feed it gunpowder or spark powder to get explosive needles
Their turret mode does a set amount of damage. Increasing the melee damage does increase the damage of the turret mode but only while mounted. Up so more people know!
Screw the giga. This is the most OP creature in the game. Pump all levels into stamina, damage, and health. They will literally kill everything in their path. I also recommend putting them on a quetzal. Boom. You get a legit badass fighter jet with infinite ammo.
You can not use it's ranged attack when you are mounted on it it on spins around. Please tell me how to use it gun attack wile on its back
Their ranged attack is bonkers, I went from worrying about every nearby predator, to gunning down everything I don't like.
They burn through Stam fast in turret mode, but they can run forever.
We won't know for certain if their melee damage increases their needle damage until the dev kit releases, or until someone shows conclusive video proof.
Tame one of these and have a blast.
Slightly shorter than a carno and a effective single target needle ranged attack and a aoe melee range attack this dino will be a must tame as a mobile turret.
Upgrading melee damage increases projectile damage
Once You get a group of these You can put them on a Quetz platform saddle, level up stamina, fill their inventory with raw meat so they never run out of stamina, then set them to turret mode. (Also donβt forget to allow AI special attacks)
Congratulations, You now have a Quetz gunship that runs on raw meat.
It's a breedable auto turret. What more needs to be said?
The needle attack blocks turret bullets until stamina runs out. Possible new soakers?
