The Thorny Dragon, a tamable, carnivore creature in ARK: Survival Ascended, is a notable presence across multiple maps. It falls within the Misc classification.
Stamina sits at 350 base, providing respectable staying power. With 100% base Melee Damage, the Thorny Dragon has solid damage output. Starting at 260 Health, it's not particularly tanky. It carries 300 base Weight - generous inventory space.
Taming the Thorny Dragon requires rendering it unconscious first - use Tranq Arrows, Darts, or Shocking Tranq Darts to apply torpor. Feed it Regular Kibble for the fastest tame and highest effectiveness bonus.
After taming, the Thorny Dragon earns its keep through resource gathering, making tedious farming runs much faster. It reproduces by laying eggs, which must be incubated between 22°C and 28°C. A wild Thorny Dragon is worth 6 base experience when killed. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.48 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
