Revenant Parasaur
In ARK: Survival Ascended, Revenant Parasaur occupies the wild niche - is a wild creature that cannot be tamed through conventional methods. Untamable in the traditional sense, Revenant Parasaur fields 480 base Weight, providing good carrying capacity when survivors meet it in the wild. It reproduces by laying fertilized eggs that incubate between 24°C and 28°C, with babies maturing over a lengthy period. Once tamed it harvests Hide, Raw Meat more efficiently than most player tools. Treat encounters with situational awareness rather than taming intent.
