What can Parasaurs detect?
It can now detect enemy Tames/Players. Can even detect Purlovias underground so be sure to bring one to a raid.
While riding a parasaur, if you right click you can do a small radar ability that will ping hostile creatures. If you have your parasaur at your base, in behavior, you can enable "Turret mode" where your parasaur will ping all hostile enemy's that come near your base.
Despite the dossier claiming them as a useless tame, if you are not looking for a combat dinosaur they are arguably among the most useful tames in terms of versatility and creative potential, especially for beginners.
ARK Trader Rating
When sleeping players disappear, parasaurs will still detect them indefinitely.
It only detects active players. It will detect sleepers, burrowed purlovia, burrowed reapers, etc. It can detect anything the size of a raptor and smaller.
Tek ones have the chance to spawn at slightly higher levels, making for slightly better stats than the normal one. Also, when killed they drop metal, element dust, oil and electronics instead of meat and hide. Same goes for all other tek dinos vs. normal ones.
Tek parasaurs are a super important early game tame. Capture and tame at any level to get a breeding pair. You then have harvesters and transportation but more importantly a potentially endless supply of metal, oil and electronics.
Tips & Strategies. On ps4 press L2 and it will scan the area for other dinos.. It will tell you they are "threats" even if its just a fellow para but still be cautious when using this ability!
It can scare Dinos.it has a roar | Parasaur Tips | Dododex.
Rex is the most powerful of any dinosaur in Ark: Survival Evolved and is certainly worth the daunting task of taming it. Rex has a ridiculous amount of HP and a high melee attack stat, meaning that players will be able to use it as a tank in both PvE and PvP battles.
How do I tame a Tek Parasaur?
- Trap The Parasaur.
- Knock it out by punching.
- Feed it food until it's tamed.
- Put a saddle on through its inventory.
Parasaur can even detect buried Purlovia and Basilisks. Another creature that has a detection thing is the Troodon.

In ARK: Survival Evolved, the Parasaur eats Basic Kibble, Crops, Mejoberry, Berries, Fresh Barley, Fresh Wheat, or Soybean, and Dried Wheat.

Elemental Reaper Kings only emerge inside Rockwell Arena, and have the same behavior as that of Reaper Kings.
Tek rexes and normal rexes are exactly the same when it comes to stats. The biggest difference is that Tek Rexes (and tek dinos in general) have higher level caps. In a sense, Tek Rexes are more likely to be stronger than normal rexes due to higher level cap.
The type of arrows able to be fired are normal/metal arrows, explosive arrows, tranq arrows, and flame arrows.
The Trike is not very fast, but again, due to the damage resistance it has (and it's just general beefiness), it can serve as a good scout for early game. Much better than the Para in that regard (level Health, Stam, and Movement Speed).
From close range, the Voidwyrm's breath attack can instantly destroy a Tek Skiff.
Prior to a hidden update, Tek Armor did not protect the survivor from Radiation or Spores in a similar way to the Hazard Suit. (Note this does not stop the Blue Spores which cause Torpor and Cold effects.) Wearing a full Tek Suit does not stop the Geiger counter sound effect from taking place whilst in Radiation.
Is Tek Rex rare?
They're pretty rare, i've seen 4 total tek rexes, 1 was on rag. You'll find one eventually. Any Tek dino has I believe a 5% chance to spawn in place of the normal version of that dino. So if the game decides to spawn in a Rex somewhere, there is a 5% chance that that Rex will be a Tek Rex.
- Toxic Blood.
- Toxic Hide.
- Raw Meat.
The Parasaurolophus was preyed upon by the Tyrannosaurus rex. T. rex dinosaurs were 38 feet long and weighed from 8,800 to 11,000 pounds.
Don't be fooled by its large size and seemingly docile temperament, the Paracer is an incredibly fast and strong creature when it wants to be. With high health and quick movement, this quick horse-like creature can be slow to take down, and can dish out devastating attacks to survivors and smaller dinos.
It is not able to intimidate every foe with its roar, but upon hearing it, it might scare the poop out of you - quite literally.
The T. rex roar could be a call for a tiger to investigate, or attack. Scientists now think that their snarls are used to stun potential prey (and even their trainers). Tigers can produce sounds in a range lower than what humans can hear.
Aberrant Creatures are a variant of normal Creatures that are found on Aberration, mutated by the elements of the ARK. Compared to their standard versions, Aberrant Creatures have 4% less health, deal 6% more damage and glow in the dark.
- Argentavis.
- Quetzal.
- T-Rex.
- Mammoth.
- Ankylosaurus.
- Carnotaurus.
- Ichthyosaurus.
- Beelzebufo.
The Phoenix is by far the rarest creature in all of ARK: Survival Evolved. Not only does just one spawn per map, but it will also need to be a heatwave for the mythical beast to appear. It will only ever appear on the Scorched Earth map, however it will re-spawn if the heatwave continues.
Basilisk is top for hauling stone because it gets very amazing weight plus reduces stone by 75%. Basilisk is probably the best weight without needing a ton of breeding. I have one that tamed out at around 3600 weight and it currently has just shy of 11,000 wt.
What is special about Tek Dinos?
Tek Creatures spawn at a 20% higher level, i.e. on difficulty 5 (max level 150) they will spawn up to level 180. They have a chance of 5% to spawn instead of their normal counterpart. Tek Creatures can only mate with other Tek Creatures and cannot mate with normal Creatures.
Dodos are about the easiest creatures to deal with on The Island. They are slow and not very dangerous. While you might be tempted to mostly kill them early on for a supply of meat and skin, consider taming one, too.
Unlike normal Raptors, it's not immobilized by bolas, so the strategy low-level players usually rely on to escape/kill these creatures is useless against Alphas.
The Raptor is a very easy to tame and versatile mount. Using a bola you can stop them dead in their tracks and it only takes a few tranq arrows to knockout when they're headshots.
The items you'll need to begin taming are a club, and an abundance of Narcoberries and Mejoberries. The club will allow you to knock the Parasaur unconscious while the Narcoberries will be used to keep the Parasaur unconscious. Mejoberries are the Parasaur's preferred food, although other berries may be used.
28 minutes game time. Thus, for an approximate 24 hour day/night cycle in game, use . 035 for the value.

AS OF FJORDUR UPDATE: basilisks can now eat fertilized wyvern eggs!
Basilisk can't be bred. Basilisks will cause them to become hostile and attack the survivor.
Can a Basilisk turn you to stone?
of the Basilisk and the two of them can see each other, the Basilisk can force the creature to make a DC 12 Constitution saving throw if the Basilisk isn't Incapacitated. On a failed save, the creature magically begins to turn to stone and is Restrained. It must repeat the saving throw at the end of its next turn.
They can be 20% higher in level. When a tek dino spawns their base level gets a +20% boost. So if if it was 15 it would be 18 or more importantly if it was 150 it would spawn as 180.
Primal Tek Dinos are craftable tek dinos with special abilities and traits. These should be thought of as machines, not living, breathing ogranisms. As such, they are genderless and do not breed. But they also dont require food, or use stamina or oxygen.
And do they lay tek rex eggs? Dinos never cross-breed. They can only ever breed with a dino that has exactly their own name.
Parasaurolophus classifies as an all-rounder; it has evenly distributed strengths and no real weakness.
Parasaurolophus's most distinctive feature was a large crest that emerged from the back of its head. Scientists have put forward a number of theories as to what the crest was used for. The most likely explanation is that it enabled the parasaurolophus to make loud trumpeting calls.
Like all hadrosaurids, Parasaurolophus' tail was especially thick, and also pretty rigid. The tail would have probably been its weapon of choice if it needed to defend itself or its young.
Tek parasaurs are a super important early game tame. Capture and tame at any level to get a breeding pair. You then have harvesters and transportation but more importantly a potentially endless supply of metal, oil and electronics.
Smaller, less well protected dinosaurs like ceratopsian – microceratus or Sauropod – Ohmdenosaurus could be considered the weakest dinosaurs in their families. Dinosaurs were well adapted to their environments and all strong in individual ways. However, there were weaknesses across all dinosaur genus and families.
The Parasaurolophus would win a fight against Hadrosaurus.
The large Parasaurolophus skull combined with its height, length, and weight would give it enough power to overwhelm and potentially kill the other dinosaur. However, this is a tough fight to call.
What preyed on Parasaurolophus?
Threats and Predators to the Parasaurolophus
The Parasaurolophus was preyed upon by the Tyrannosaurus rex. T. rex dinosaurs were 38 feet long and weighed from 8,800 to 11,000 pounds.
One of the loudest dinosaurs to roam the earth, Parasaurolophus made a loud honking sound as they breathed. From a family of dinosaurs called ornithopods, they had hip and feet bones like a bird and were the first plant-eating dinosaur with an effective chewing mechanism.
Dilophosaurus was a fast-moving meat-eating dinosaur. A kink in its upper jaw may mean that it ate a certain kind of food, or attacked by gripping and holding on to prey – modern crocodiles have a similar kink. The pair of thin bony crests on its head may have been for display.
The latter idea and the unique shape of the crests led researchers to nickname Parasaurolophus the "trombone dinosaur."
Ankylosaurus. Not only is Ankylosaurus the widest of all dinosaurs, but it's the most heavily armored, with bony plates, studs, and spikes lining its entire back-even its eyelids have spikes.
Parasaurolophus was a genus of hadrosaurid (duck-billed) dinosaur from the Upper Cretaceous Period (about 76-65 million years ago) of what is now North America. Its name means 'near crested lizard', which refers to another hadrosaurid, Saurolophus, discovered before Parasaurolophus.
