CreatureVariant

The Aberrant Megalosaurus is a large carnivore variant of the Megalosaurus, distinguished by its altered stats and aberrant physiology. It deals increased melee damage but has slightly reduced health compared to its standard counterpart. This creature excels in combat and structure destruction, making it a valuable asset for raiding and defense. It can be carried by Tusoteuthis, enabling aerial transport for surprise attacks or rapid deployment.
Players typically tame the Aberrant Megalosaurus for its aggressive capabilities and utility in taking down enemy bases.

Taming an Aberrant Megalosaurus requires knockout via tranquilizing weapons. Superior Kibble is the most effective food, significantly reducing taming time. Raw Mutton also works if Superior Kibble is unavailable. Use a Bow with Tranq Arrow or a Longneck Rifle with Tranquilizer Dart for sedation. Immobilize it with a Chain Bola or trap it using a Bear Trap or Large Bear Trap. The process takes around 110 minutes. Use the calculator below for your settings.
