Overview
Lymantria is a flyer herbivore with a unique spore-based attack. It reduces the weight of resources it carries, making it useful for transport efficiency. The creature is primarily tamed to exploit its weight reduction in inventory management while flying.
It can be immobilized using a Bola, Chain Bola, or Bear Trap during taming procedures.

More about taming the Lymantria
Tame Lymantria using the knockout method. Use a Bola, Chain Bola, or Bear Trap to immobilize it. Then apply sedation with weapons like the Bow, Crossbow, or Compound Bow using Tranq Arrows, or the Longneck Rifle with Tranquilizer Darts.
The best food is Regular Kibble, requiring about 11 units. The taming process takes around 42 minutes with no Narcotics needed. Use the calculator below for your settings.

 Chitin | ~740% · ~5 hits | ~1060% · ~4 hits |
 Raw Meat | ~760% · ~5 hits | ~540% · ~4 hits |
 Silk | ~4140% · ~5 hits | ~6260% · ~4 hits |
Each harvest event rolls resources independently. Actual yields vary.
Killing a Lymantria yields Chitin, Raw Meat, and Silk. The Hatchet provides the most Chitin and Silk, while the Pick maximizes Raw Meat yield.

Combat notes
Lymantria has a +120% weakness to Instant HurtDinos, making it highly vulnerable to certain environmental hazards. It is highly resistant to fire, taking -60% damage from fire-based attacks. This makes flame weapons ineffective. Melee and explosive damage from raid-class sources are especially dangerous due to multiple weaknesses.
Certain hit zones on Lymantria take increased damage. The l_tooth, r_tooth, and c_stinger1 each have a damage multiplier of 3x. Target these zones during knockout attempts for faster torpor buildup.
Can break Thatch and Wood. Build at least in Stone.

Experience
- The DropSpores attack deals 18 damage and has a 17-second cooldown. Use it against clustered enemies for area disruption.
- Lymantria is highly resistant to fire-based damage, making it suitable for deployment in volcanic or flame-heavy environments.
- It takes significantly increased damage from raid-class melee and explosive sources, so avoid direct combat with raiding creatures.
- It can be trapped using a Bear Trap, which is useful for immobilization during taming.
