Dino Dossier: Thylacoleo

Common Name Thylacoleo
Species Thylacoleo furtimorsus
Time Late Pliocene - Late Pleistocene
Diet Carnivore
Temperament Aggressive
Domestication
Tameable Yes
Rideable Yes
  • Wild: Thylacoleo furtimorsus is a large, powerful marsupial that can often be found hunting around trees. Its long claws and semi-opposable digits make it an apt climber, a quality that Thylacoleo uses to its advantage while hunting. It clambers up trees and waits to ambush passing prey by pouncing upon them. When something that large jumps onto a target, it becomes stunned and doesn't stand much chance.

  • Domesticated: Thylacoleo is a moderately strong mount, and its ability to climb trees makes it useful for traversal such that developing tribes often tame it. Small raiding parties particularly favor Thylacoleo, as it is well suited to ambushes and unfair fights!

  • Known Information: Thylacoleo's most notable fighting quality is its powerful jaws. Once it bites its prey, it locks its jaw in an iron-strength grip that can hold most smaller creatures in place. Thylacoleo then goes on to savage its prey with its sharp claws. If it needs to escape a fight, Thylacoleo uses its muscular hind legs to jump back to safety among the trees.

Ark Survival Evolved offers an incredible amount of cheats, which are well documented on many websites (like this) and can be easily used to manipulate the game. But many people don’t have a computer capable of surfing and playing at the same time. That’s why we’ve created a handy cheat sheet, which can be printed on 8 pages. It still has enough free space to add informations or take notes by yourself.

Dino Dossier: Megalania

Common Name: Megalania
Species: Megalania Muruspede
Time: Late Holocene
Diet: Carnivore
Temperament: Aggressive
Domestication
Tameable: Yes
Rideable: Yes
Command:  
  • Wild: Megalania Muruspede is among the largest creatures found throughout the island’s complicated cave networks. Reaching up to three meters long, it can traverse vertically up the cave walls with little difficulty, using its claws as iron-strength grips. Fortunately, Megalania’s size means it is unlikely to sneak up on anyone. Unfortunately for spelunkers, it is an aggressive and dangerous creature nonetheless.
  • Domesticated: The extremely rare ability of Megalania to effortlessly climb walls makes it a highly sought after mount. While it is by no means the fastest, strongest, or toughest mount -- the way it can effortlessly climb in the caves and scale mountains means it will always have a place in any advanced tribe’s stables.
  • Known Information: Like other Varanidae, Megalania is a venomous creature.. Its poison is slow-acting, but will drain the victim’s effective strength and health until death unless cured by a rare antidote. That said, the Megalania’s prey are usually ripped apart well before they succumb to the poison’s long-term effects.

Dino Dossier: Hyaenodon

Common Name: Hyaenodon
Species: Hyaenodon Dirus
Time: Late Eocene - Early Miocene
Diet: Carnivore
Temperament: Opportunistic
Domestication
Tameable: Yes
Rideable: No
Command:  
  • Wild: Among the island's tenacious pack hunters is Hyaenodon Dirus, a carnivore most often found across the mountains and tundras, in packs of 3 to 5. The Hyaenodon is a very intelligent predator: before engaging, it determines if the payoff for a fight is worth the risk of injury.

  • Domesticated: Despite being too small to ride, Hyaenodon are still popular pets. Their intelligence means they train well, and their natural pack strength makes them excellent hunting dogs. Their capability to quickly recover health by consuming raw flesh off the bone ensures they can take much punishment and yet continue fighting. A common (and terrifying) sight on the tundra is a rider on a canis with a pack of Hyaenodon at it’s side, howls and jeers echoing through the night.

  • Known Information: Hyaenodon often prefer not to fight unless there is already weakened prey nearby, or a fresh carccass. This temperament changes quickly, though, near the presence of injured or dying creatures. Hyaenodon quickly becomes very aggressive, and the pack attacks with ruthless abandon. With each vicious chomp of scavenged meat, the Hyaenodon rapidly recovers health and stamina.
