Found in desert biome in extinction dlc, in south east corner of map

Had my first velonasaur encounter today on fjordor- I didn’t even know what hit me but it banged up my maewing pretty bad

It’s deadly accurate so don’t count on it missing

When near a Velonasaur it will shoot spikes out of it’s head. If you are on a flyer such as a Pteranodon it will make it dizzy and you will fly out of control.

How to escape a Velonasaur:

1) run

2) run faster

3) run a lot faster

4) RUN LIKE YOUR LIFE DEPENDS ON IT BECAUSE IT DOES ALL THE TIME

People haven’t emphasized this enough, but these things do a LOT of damage in the wild too so you need to be really careful while trying to tame them. Specifically the R variant, which I have been taming on Fjordur can just shred through your tames and you. They can also shoot you while your on a mount.

Never underestimate these bastards, I was trying to tame one of them and THEIR NEEDLES HAVE RANGE! I was on the other side of the lake in the desert biome and I was getting aim boted by thier needles. MAKE SURE TO HAVE SOME MED BREWS IF U TRY TO TAME ONE!

If you going to try kill it don't approach it with a shield it will rip through it and kill you

In my experience, they almost always spawn in pairs. Make sure you check the entire area if you think you're only fighting/taming one!
