Dinosaur abilities
Search brought nothing up for me.
Does anyone have a link to a list of the known abilities for dinosaurs? And how to use them. I've just found out about them from a stream.

You mean their stats and leveling them? Or?

I think he means like what each dinosaur is good for. The Triceatops can uproot bushes and bamboo giving about 30 berries each time when you are riding it.

Oh jeez, I thought using my para to collect berries was awesome but that is just wow.

wow! Yeah that is what I meant, I heard something about the anky breaking rocks. Do I do it all by collecting like normal but while mounted?

Well I have to be mounted for my para to harvest berries.

When you are mounted you have to left click and the items go into the dino's inventory.

I would also like some information regarding this subject! If someone know anything, do please list it somewhere!

The trike, bronto, and stego are all really good berry collectors!

Scorpion is used to knock out dinos I believe, I have one just never knocked a dino out ( just heard rumours ).

I have also heard that the stego is good for cutting down trees for their wood? I haven't been able to confirm this though.

It's also inefficient to use raptors to carve corpses by the way - you get more meat/hide if you use your pick/axe (respectively).

Petradon's can pick players up..and in an upcoming patch will be able to pick smaller dino's/creatures up. You can transport a friend..or drop an enemy to their death. If they don't punch it out first. Right click for this.

While using the stego you get more thatch then wood when hitting trees

All carnivores can gather drops from corpses. Smaller carnivores are less effective than a player with tools, while larger carnivores are more effective.

Trikes, Stegos and Brontosaurs can harvest bushes and trees with their attack, giving you berries, thatch and a bit of wood.

Ankylosaurs can mine stones with their tail attack.

Mammoths can presumably gather wood with their attack like other plant eaters gather thatch.

Scorpions provide a safe (because the scorpion can tank for you) method to knock out dinos for taming. It is about as effectvie as a tranq arrow in terms of the damage you deal for a certain amount of torpor.

Flyers can carry players with their secondary attack.

Awesome! I can't +1 Pirate Ozzy's post, but it was indeed very informative. Can't wait to tame a pteradon!
