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

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

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

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

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.

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.

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

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

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!

America's top dinosaur award of the century.

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.

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!”

Looks like a megalosaurus that got mixed with plants and corruption, for those who really want to know go to ark's community crunch page

In pvp, you can use a sniper from long range to easily kill them. Though there damage is insane, there health is terrible, a total glass cannon. If you are in medium it close range you are dead.

They shoot quills and shred through armor

Net projectiles are in you side

If you want kill it use a good level Gas bag

Very dangerous but worth taming
