carsonmatthies Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 If you could choose one dino to start off, complete with a saddle, with what would you choose? I think I would probably go with a quetzal just because you can use it to gather (carry) resources better than most animals and you can use it to pick up most animals. I would love to hear everyone's opinions on what they would prefer to start out with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hosscat Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 Iguanodon. Im partial to them anyway. But the lack of stamina loss when running on all fours would be great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hellow Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 Theri without a doubt. They're hell to tame, but they do pretty much every farming u could think of, coupled with a doedi and anky for later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carsonmatthies Posted August 30, 2017 Author Share Posted August 30, 2017 I was debating between the therinzosaurus and quetzal but I didn't even think about transferring with pillars and I completely forgot about the mantis, that would be a great one to start with.

raptorjesus666 Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 or a (light) wyvern fast fly without saddle strong gathers thatch gathers wood (not much, but still) athers meat and hide and like quetzal can carry most dinos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skitter1200 Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 giga, durr. JK, i would prob start with either a quetz, a theri, or a yutyrannus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaedric Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 Theri - the gathering is a game changer especially early on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aushegun Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 ARGY - can use it to haul resources, and can get where ever I need to go. Plus can defend me if needed. Use it for scouting, etc. So much easier to escape a dino attack thru the air, than on land. But I do understand the answers of Theri, which would be my second choice, followed by Sloth.

HalfSlabBacon Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 Totally an Argy, makes travel easy, can pickup frogs which is very important early game, can fight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RYN371 Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 I always chose Charmander, until the choice was no longer available. Didn't like me sitting on his shoulders, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monics Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 Iguanodon for moving large amount of resources. Argent for moving metal, grabbing wolfs. Dung Beetles/Phiomia for Fert for PlantX. Doed for stone. Anky for Metal/flint/thatch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True...but the Argy won't help you knock out tames you lead into traps like the Frog will. I go with a frog first, then use it to grab a Trike/Stego, Dimo, Carno, Anky, Doed, and Argent. Usually in that order or close to it. (This is unofficial with 3x-8x we're talking here...I'm not touching Official with a 10 foot pole for at least a week or two.

Then start power levelling with narcs, gunpowder, stimulants & building. Then it's right to the Petro & Argy, metal run, Rex's. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With it I can get all the narcos I need to start taming other dinos. Plus the knock back makes it a good fighter in the beginning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dilos get way underestimated too. They're fast easy tames, and a large pack will take almost anything out. I always build a pack for early game meat. Usually get most killed eventually, but they serve their purpose long before then. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My method comes from staying SUPER under the radar when rolling solo on high-rate PvP servers. There's a slower ramp-up time for leveling off the start, but once you have those 5 dinos you level insanely fast. Force of habit now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
