What is a velonasaur used for? velonasaur battling strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Easy solo Megapithicis Boss Fight.
Take one velonasaur, buff mainly stamina and melee, some health too and run up to let ledge and stay there in turret mode shooting him. Their too stupid to come up and get you although occasionally a monke will run up at you but he can be taken care of.
It's right click shotgun attack has been nerfed severely, I'd recommend focusing on melee and stam to make sure you can gun down everything in sight, because at close range it does not have a reliable melee attack anymore, other than its very weak claw attack. Be careful as a group of Allosaurus can get rid of your newly tamed velo if you aren't careful.
What you want to do is tame a male and a female (high levels of course) then have them mass produce. When you have about 10-15 set pump them all into melee and stam and have them wander around the base. And have then on nuetral. So that way the next person to raid you will crash once all of the velonsaurs start shooting
MAKE SURE YOU MUTATE THEM!!! The most useful pvp Dino in the game, I’ve killed gigas with nothing but a realy mutated velonosaur and came out with only half of my health gone. I mostly put health and stamina into it but always make sure you have good melee with it, the single best machine gun.
