Overview
Morellatops is a herbivorous creature with a unique gathering specialization. It excels at harvesting a wide variety of plant-based resources quickly while ridden. This makes it a valuable companion for resource farming in desert and wasteland biomes. It can be airlifted by Quetzal or Tusoteuthis for fast deployment to remote areas.

More about taming the Morellatops
Tame Morellatops using the knockout method. The best food is Simple Kibble, which provides the fastest taming effectiveness. Cactus Sap also works well if kibble is unavailable. Use a Bow with Tranq Arrows or a Longneck Rifle with Tranquilizer Darts to sedate it. Immobilize it first with a Chain Bola or Bear Trap. The taming process takes about 20 minutes and requires no Narcotics. Use the calculator below for your settings.

Combat notes
Morellatops has a +120% weakness to Instant HurtDinos, making it extremely vulnerable to certain environmental hazards. It also takes +100% more damage from spike walls. It is highly resistant to fire, taking -60% damage from fire-based attacks. Avoid fire weapons when attacking it, and use spike walls or Instant HurtDinos for maximum effectiveness.
The head has a damage multiplier of 1x, making it the optimal target for knockouts. The body takes only 20% damage, and the tail takes 50%, so aim for the head to sedate efficiently.
Can break Thatch and Wood. Build at least in Stone.
