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

It is an awesome dino, level up stamina and Melee and your good to go. It is very useful in the orbital drops fights.

The stam isnt terrible if you hold in turret mode, rapid clicking is what drains it quickly

I tamed one the other day by placing a wood fence foundation and a wall when he tried to shoot I hid behind the wall and every now and then I would shoot him with a tranq dart he was a 145

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!

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!

If you use a snow owl to freeze it then while still mounted to keep it frozen surround it with wooden billboards so it can’t shoot you or get out

Get a platform saddle for a quetzal and put this thing on it you basically have a fighter jet

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

If u need 2 do lava cave suggest having a velo supper effective against it and u dont need rockets 2 kill boss

If you have a tanky large Dino with good health you can hide behind it so it gets shot and not you and easily shoot the velonasaur with tranqs

America's top dinosaur award of the century.

To breed easily just plant both your parents in turret mode and set to wander, they'll spin on the spot and do the nasty

I just pick them up with a quez and drop them in a two by two trap. Never had them affect the quez but then I'm straight in and grab them.

The developers made a very correct decision for this beast and made a not very large radius of its aggression. If he would have a higher target radius (like a raptor, for example), he will start shooting for the first step, and it will be very annoying for all players.

A Velonasaur with high melee and a lot of grapples is the by far best way to run the lava cave. Will only take you like 10 minutes.

The thing about these is that they basically don’t miss, so if you don’t kill it in time, this thing is very unforgiving, so try to keep your distance at some points

It is better to tame the R variants because they are naturally stronger

level damage up to 650%+ and killed someone's Giga with the AOE ability, I thought I was done for

If you agro it then try to kill it close range and DON’T try to run because it will go into turret stance and shot you down faster than you can say “run back!”
