Paraceratherium
Found across 20 maps in beaches, grasslands, and river areas. Green zones have the highest spawn density. Each species has a population cap per area, so wiping out other creatures nearby can trigger new Paraceratherium spawns.
The Paraceratherium, a tamable, herbivore creature in ARK: Survival Ascended, is well-known across multiple maps. It belongs to the Soaker category.
At 1,026 base HP, the Paraceratherium is impressively tough. Dealing 100% base Melee Damage, the Paraceratherium brings respectable melee power to the table. With 300 base Stamina, the Paraceratherium has moderate endurance. Weight capacity starts at 850, giving it excellent carrying capacity.
You'll need to knock the Paraceratherium unconscious before taming it. Tranquilizers are the standard approach. Superior Kibble is the most effective food for taming, offering the highest affinity per feeding.
As a tame, the Paraceratherium pulls double duty as both a capable resource harvester and pack animal. Breeding is via live birth rather than eggs, simplifying the process. A wild Paraceratherium is worth 12 base experience when killed. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.66 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
