Admin cheat to boost the level of a wild dino?

[Excessive Paranoia]

Does one exist?

Thanks.

Mount a dino and give shared tribe exp to yourself. Dino will get half of it.

If you need wild levels - you can just summon one with any level you need.

I'm trying not to fully break the rules but rather bend them a little... I've been hunting for a high level quetz for days now (~18 hours of play time) and I keep coming up with low levels if I find any at all. I've given up and decided I'm going to cheat a little, but I don't want to fully break the rules and spawn a whole new one in, instead I was hoping to bump one of the ones I found up to a desirable level, if that makes any sense.

If there is no option, I may spawn one, but doing that feels like a solid step onto a slipperly slope...

This is for a wild dino pre-tame, not a tamed dino.

oh sorry.. suppose I should read the whole title lol...
No cheat to add to wild dinos aside from spawning it in with X levels

[TomHud™]

the answer is no
and if u already looking for a way to cheat then u are already on that slippery slope so as said above just spawn yourself a high level one and in tame it.

Is no difference at all.

Or just start killing the low ones and you'll eventually get a high level one to spawn, might take some time but it will happen.

You've got a point there... I resisted using destroywilddinos because it felt like cheating and then one day I gave up and used it, now I use it all the time rather than putting in real effort into grinding through dinos to get better ones to spawn. I'll probably not cheat in this case, as its only going to get worse going foreward.

It takes a while, I went through about 3 days of killing off low Quetzs (sub 90) before I finally snagged a 108. (Typed as I'm sttting mid air in my Quetz cage taming this thing.)

you can also regenerate all the dinos in the map with the command "admincheat destroywilddinos" (it will not affect tamed dinos), then, you'll be maybe more lucky with the respawn :)

cheating is cheating, didn't know it came in sizes.
just summon one the level you want, or be patient.

Cheating most definitely comes in shades. There is a huge difference, for example, between cheating for knowledge by looking up where to find a resource on the wiki and cheating by simply spawning an amount of that resource into your inventory. The problem is that in a single player game, the only thing your doing is cheating yourself out of the experience. In some cases, this might not feel horrible, as scouring the map for hours looking for a difficult to find resource or item might test your patience, while in others, you've completely bypassed a core component of the game. The problem I face is that I have completely ruined games for myself in the past by cheating through core content (specifically using a save editor to edit guns in borderlands 1/2 rather than hunting for them the traditional way... the end game is about farming for guns after a point and so no farming = no game) and I want to avoid a repeat, hence my desire to bend but not break the rules.
