Mesopiteco Overview

Survivors looking at Mesopiteco in ARK: Survival Ascended will find a land-based herbivore that earns its keep through resource gathering, making tedious farming runs much faster. It is a herbivore tamed through passive taming, with Basic Kibble as its top-tier food, and brings 100% base Melee Damage, giving it decent hitting power to the table. It gives live birth after a gestation period, with offspring maturing requiring significant patience. Once tamed it harvests Hide, Raw Meat more efficiently than most player tools. Players target Mesopiteco once they need a reliable workhorse beyond the starter mounts.
