Best Dino’s For Kibble Farm

[Void]

What dinos should I use for each tier of kibble. Looking for fastest laying dinos.

[Xenulus]

Raptors are OK for early tames. They aren't particularly fast egg layers, but you can tame a lot of them very easily. They will cover Simple and Basic kibbles.

For Regular kibble perhaps Ankys and Carbos seems to lay regularily. Or skip that entirely and tame a large flock of Argys for Superior kibble. I typically have 3-4 Argys on singleplayer for carrying metal, crystal, and obsidian from mountains, 3 of the them are females and I get eggs at a fairly good rate.

I would skip Exceptional kibble tames and go straight for mass Yutyrannus taming. I have 5 egg laying Yutys dedicated to kibble and they lay pretty often. Once you get them you don't need your other egg layers, as, in case you didn't know, each tier of kibble will tame creatures in its own tier as well as all the tiers below it, ie, Regular kibble will tame dinos in Simple and Basic tier.

Dodo is fastest for basic kibble.

Remember basic kibble does not require advanced crops or ingredients, so is simpler to make in bulk.

Higher tier kibble is great, but i advise you to tame rexs rather than yutys as:

A. Rexes are easier to find and tame in every biome than Yutys.

B. Exceptional tier kibble is easier to make than Extraordinary as again it does not require advanced crops or honey, which is harder to get in quantity than rare flower.

The side benefit is that to get to endgame, you need a fleet of rexes anyway.

[Xenulus]

True, unless you don't care about the few dinos that require Extraordinary kibble then just use Rexes for Exceptional. But I love my Yutys, Thylas, and Rock Elementals, so kibble wise I solely stick with Yutys. They're the easiest if you want Extraordinary.

Easy to read kibble list of creatures per tier, based off my opinion and experience. Based off The Island gameplay.

Basic: Dodo (hands down fastest egg layer)
Simple: Raptor (easier tame) or Trike (seems to lay eggs more often)
Regular: Anky or Turtle (easier to tame) or Terror Bird (seemed to lay eggs very fast in past experiences)
Superior: Argentavis (seems to lay fairly quickly)
Exceptional: Rex (easier/quicker tame) or Therizino (might be slightly faster than Rex?)
Extraordinary: Yutyrannus (easiest tame in this tier and fairly fast egg laying)

Just go for deino eggs in the wild, you'll get dozens of those in no time and you 'll have all the extraordinary kibbles of the world. All other kibbles have become useless if you're playin on valguero.

i'm sure this is going to be rebalanced by wildcard soon though...

I think it depends on the map; I was going to say I don't bother with superior because Rare Mushroom isn't that common, but that's because I've been playing on Ragnarok where you can't help but trip over Rare Flowers.

If you can get a hive for a stable supply of honey, and of course have a few Yuuty for a steady supply of eggs, Extraordinary is the only one of the top three that you won't have to leave your base for anything but meat to make.

I've heard that rare mushrooms and flowers are intended to actually be rare but whatever map I'm on I can't help but tripping over huge piles of both. I believe you get the flowers from mining Crystal and the mushrooms from beaver dams? Either way I always have ample Supply.

[Veeshan]

I've settled on Turtles and Ankees and then a flight of argentavis for the higher tier kibble. Turtles are easy to get but if you have an Argent to hunt anky you may as well skip them since they are of no use in PVE.

Haven't decided what to go for on the next tier up.

[SteelFire]

Rare flowers and mushrooms USED to be rare... too rare. Back in the day, when we only had the Island and before the biome change, you could only get them occasionally from mountain plants and good luck getting any if you weren't harvesting those plants with a dino. They were only needed for mindwipes back then.

Then they introduced breeding and kibble and you needed them for some of the kibbles and some of the new dinos, so they made them less rare, quite common in fact, by making them readily available when harvesting swamp reeds and trees. That was balanced somewhat by the swamp being so dangerous and, eventually, led to the once per level restriction on mindwipes.

Opposite, Mushrooms from crystals, flowers in beaver dams.

[SteelFire]

You can get mushrooms out of beaver dams too. Swamp harvesting of both with decent mounts (anky for reed, trike for trees) is way more efficient for large quantities, but dams also have paste and pearls, so it depends on need.

It's not worth the effort to harvest crystal or mountain plants for mushrooms and flowers, you won't get enough. Consider those to be bonuses if you're harvesting the resources for other reasons.

[Dracul]

for basic kibble you want IGUANODONS they are abundant, easy to tame, cheap to tame, and lay pretty often.

[juttertje]

i only use 1 kibble and that is extraordinary easy to tame a bunch of lowlevel yuty's and you can tame everything with it. why bother with other creatures or kibble while 1 does the trick?

It's like a humblebrag but without the false humility.

[Ω KnowItAllDM Φ]

What about when your baby dinos want a specific kibble for imprinting? Shouldn't you have some of each kibble on hand for that?

[The_Kuervito]

Holy necro.
Can use that kibble or a better,in my case use sometimes old kibbles from the old system
