An absolute beast. Melee attack not amazing but the turret is unbelievable. I cannot WAIT to start breeding them!

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!
I've never seen one or barely heard of it or know about it. If they are dangerous like ๐๐ป If they aren't dangerous dislike ๐๐ฟ
Found in desert biome in extinction dlc, in south east corner of map
Itโs deadly accurate so donโt count on it missing
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!
When near a Velonasaur it will shoot spikes out of itโs head. If you are on a flyer such as a Pteranodon it will make it dizzy and you will fly out of control.
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.
If you going to try kill it don't approach it with a shield it will rip through it and kill you
If you agro it then try to kill it close range and DONโT try to run because it will go into turret stance and shot you down faster than you can say โrun back!โ
