Moschops different attacks and wander vs ridden (2024)

[Guidsmaster]

I see a ton of contradicting information on Moschops, most of which is several years old. wondering if anyone knows how it actually is.

Every video I see is adamant that moschops must not be ridden for it to gain its bonus harvesting, however I see comments saying that's false, and a note on the wiki also claims this is false.

I compared wander to ridden and didnt notice much, if anything wander might have actually been lower.

I also cant find any information on the difference between its left click, right click and "C" attacks. I tried gathering some berries/fiber, and they seem to have the same results, not sure if the difference is only visible with other types of harvesting nodes.

For all the above, I only have a low level moschops available, so test results for ridden/wander, and Lclick, Rclick, C, is probably not so easily visible when yield numbers are small.

Harvesting also depends on server settings.

But if you go to https://ark.fandom.com/wiki/Moschops

You can see it has
Harvest Tree, so hit tress.
Harvest corps, so hit corpses

Hitting berries will test neither of these. You will of course see if they have been changed to berries.

If it has to wander to harvest, I would just consider it worthless, there are so many errors making them walk through walls and whatnot when not stationary.
