Bring as much as you can (20 is the limit), over-preping is better than finding yourself in trouble during fight.
I usually do with megalosauruses and reapers, shooting tentacles on a drake, but you are free to use any creature that you prefer.

And remember to bring a good shotgun with tons of shells and a few spare armors.

Around 40k, it’s not a lot and that’s totally feasible if you want to take it down with shotgun instead of dinos.

SP settings only affect your creautre stats, bosses are the same.

Honestly my settings are a little screwed, so i have 2 reapers and 1 spino that damage around and over 1K. Så shooting the tentacles and having them ready should be fine? I can for support bring my rock drake, bulb and then like 15-16 breed spinos, and even tho they dont have good mobility they have 30K health and damage like 400-900, so i think i should be fine? I just need a better shotgun

It has never been screwed, you can turn the SP setting off if you think that’s too OP, all stats of your existing dino will be updated automatically.

Using this set up with SP settings is totally enough for gamma. (probably overkill)

Yeah shotgun is probably the must have for this fight, keep grinding on surface loots.

Surface loot gives me 238 fab and 331 machine guns but no shotguns XD.

but yeah i think ill stick to this as it is, i can start with gamma and evaluate after and then try and take on beta / alpha later. Is it possible to kill him with only 1 tentacle round or is there like when he has taken 10000 he will go back up or how does it work?

He will wake up and go down in waves, there exists a damage threshold he can take each time he is down before taking a element bath and wake up similar to the latter case you were describing, though I am not sure how much exactly.

So I wouldn’t think that is possible to take him down in one round even with super power.

Did the fight today, everything went good and then the game glitched and i died :/, kinda a bummer lost 2 reaper kings, 16 spinos and my rockdrake not to mention all my equipment, i looked back the footage no balls, no animals and my armor was on, just poof and i died.

If you died by glitch then no harm in restoring a backup.
