Malfunctioned Tek Parasaur
Malfunctioned Tek Parasaur Egg & Breeding Calculator
The Malfunctioned Tek Parasaur reproduces by laying fertilized eggs after mating. Incubation temperature must stay between 24°C and 28°C - use Air Conditioners, Standing Torches, or Dimetrodons to maintain the range. At the correct temperature, the egg hatches in approximately 1 hour and 25 minutes.
The baby Malfunctioned Tek Parasaur takes approximately 1 day and 2 hours to fully mature at default rates - over a lengthy period. During the baby phase (0–10%), hand-feed it directly. From 10% onward (juvenile), it can eat from a Feeding Trough.
Mutations can add +2 levels to any stat and change colors. Stacking mutations across generations is the key to min-maxed breeding lines. Use the breeding calculator to plan food requirements, incubation timers, and maturation phases.
Maturation has three phases: Baby (0–10%) lasts ~159 min and requires constant hand-feeding. Juvenile (10–50%) spans ~11h - it can eat from a Trough now. Adolescent (50–100%) takes ~13h - continues eating from troughs, nearly fully grown.
Don't skip imprinting - each successful imprint boosts the Malfunctioned Tek Parasaur's stats, and hitting 100% grants a 30% combat bonus when the imprinter rides it. Keep various kibble types on hand, as imprint requests are randomized between cuddles, walks, and kibble feeding.

Planning a mass raise? The Malfunctioned Tek Parasaur raising calculator breaks down food needs per phase so nothing goes to waste. Expect ~159 minutes of active care during the Baby phase before it graduates to trough-feeding as a Juvenile.
Adjust the dino count to calculate food for multiple Malfunctioned Tek Parasaur babies at once - essential for batch breeding operations. Match your food choice to your play schedule - longer spoil timers mean less babysitting.

During the Baby phase (0-10%), you must hand-feed or use a Maewing to nurse. From Juvenile (10%+), dinos can eat from a Feeding Trough on their own. Use Preserving Salt in troughs to double spoil times.
The Malfunctioned Tek Parasaur is a herbivore creature in ARK: Survival Ascended.
Melee starts at 100% - solid damage output that scales with level-ups. Health-wise, the Malfunctioned Tek Parasaur sits at 200 base, making it relatively fragile. Its base Stamina of 450 gives it good endurance. Weight capacity starts at 480, giving it a solid weight pool.
The Malfunctioned Tek Parasaur is a wild creature that cannot be tamed through conventional methods. Breeding produces fertilized eggs that hatch within a 24°C–28°C temperature window. A wild Malfunctioned Tek Parasaur is worth 1 base experience when killed. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.14 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
