Overview
Lost Megatherium is a large omnivore variant creature. It excels at gathering a wide range of resources, particularly benefiting from its Insect Slayer (Energized) buff after killing insects. This state boosts its melee damage and chitin harvest. It can be airlifted by Quetzal or Tusoteuthis for fast deployment to resource nodes.

Combat notes
Lost Megatherium has a +120% weakness to Instant HurtDinos and a -100% resistance to MiningDrill Harvest. This makes it extremely vulnerable to instant-damage sources like spike traps or dino attacks, but fully immune to mining drill-based harvesting tools. Prioritize Health and Melee Damage.
The Head has a 1.5× damage multiplier. Aim for the head to maximize damage during combat or taming.
Can break Thatch and Wood. Build at least in Stone.

- It can be carried by Quetzal or Tusoteuthis, enabling aerial transport to distant biomes.
