What to tame first

Start with a raptor or wolf for early meat runs. Save narcotics before you try a rex. this resource is useful when you are picking a first saddle over a pretty hide.

Imprint timers punish long trips. Park a bed next to the pen so the baby does not starve while you harvest.

  • Carry extra narco berries
  • Build the pen before the knock-out

Caves and bosses

Artifact caves need a flyer you can dismount in tight rock. Bring a cryopod, not a full army. additional game information covers extra map notes if your tribe is swapping The Island for Scorched Earth.
