Player-written tips for taming, using, and fighting the Velonasaur in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.

(Same guy who petitioned tranq needles)

Petition to be able to feed it gunpowder or spark powder to get explosive needles

You don’t need to trap this to tame, it’s a solo tame. If you run up to it, it will go into turret mode then you need to walk circles around it and keep hitting with tranq until it eventually tries to walk away *in turret mode so really slow walking*

Their turret mode does a set amount of damage. Increasing the melee damage does increase the damage of the turret mode but only while mounted. Up so more people know!

Screw the giga. This is the most OP creature in the game. Pump all levels into stamina, damage, and health. They will literally kill everything in their path. I also recommend putting them on a quetzal. Boom. You get a legit badass fighter jet with infinite ammo.

Their ranged attack is bonkers, I went from worrying about every nearby predator, to gunning down everything I don't like.

They burn through Stam fast in turret mode, but they can run forever.

We won't know for certain if their melee damage increases their needle…

They can be found in the Fjordur Map on the shores in the Volcano biome, along with some X-Trikes and a few more stuff- — Bob the Builder

Slightly shorter than a carno and a effective single target needle ranged attack and a aoe melee range attack this dino will be a must tame as a mobile turret.

About a couple weeks ago, I was so lucky I was fooled into thinking a Velonasaur disregarded a shooter when mounting an Allosaur. Just now, I thought about how a Stegosaurus protects it's rider from arrows, and then shot at the Velonasaur between the plates in Hardened…

If you want to have them as a turret dont max damage this wouldnt increase proyectile damage in TURRET MODE only increases when you are riding it
