Overview
Malwyn is a carnivorous creature designed for direct combat. It specializes in teleporting to targeted locations, enabling rapid repositioning during fights or traversal. This ability allows players to ambush enemies or escape danger swiftly. It can be airlifted by Argentavis, Karkinos, Quetzal, or Tusoteuthis for fast deployment.
Malwyn is typically tamed for its aggressive combat utility and unique teleport attacks.

More about taming the Malwyn
Malwyn must be knocked out before taming. Use a Bow, Crossbow, or Fabricated Sniper Rifle with Tranq Arrows to sedate it safely. Immobilize it first with a Chain Bola, Bear Trap, or Plant Species Y to prevent escape. The best food is Raw Mutton; Raw Prime Meat also works. It takes about 26 minutes to tame at level 220. No Narcotics are needed. Use the calculator below for your settings.

Combat notes
Malwyn takes +120% more damage from Instant HurtDinos, making it highly vulnerable to certain dino attacks. It is also weak to spike walls and explosion-based damage, which deal +100% and +50% respectively. It resists mining drill harvest damage completely. Melee attacks with impact effects are 50% less effective against it.
The head is a critical hit zone with a damage multiplier of 2.5×. Focus headshots to maximize damage output during combat or taming attempts.
Malwyn can break Thatch and Wood. Build at least in Stone.
