[@mariskaoldtina1991]

Phlinger Phoo - First, just wanted to say I love your videos. You keep me laughing and your attitude also helps keep me enjoying the game. So, thank you. For this post though - why would you pick a Thyla over a doed? The Thyla is definitely more fun, but the doed feels like something more of a requirement. I could argue that a weight leveled argie would be close to a quetz/anky. But nothing seems to come close to a doed. In my opinion...

[@brycefelperin]

I'd go without the Anklo or Doed if you had to list just top five. Remember, with an Argent and a metal pick you can get all the metal and transport that you want. Rock comes also as a byproduct from mining obsidian, metal, crystal, etc. and you can find it all over easily anyway. So if you have metal tools you don't need an Anklo or a Doed, but they do make it easier and quicker to get your metal and stone. They're simply not a must have though.

[@baddabeer4862]

It's a base builder.... while a great help.... strong Dino's can protect a wood base fairly well

Never really used the basilosaurus or the baryonix but I'll definitely try them out. Got to agree on the Argies, I usually tame two high females and a male, breed them a few times and then that's my fleet for metal/crystal/obsidian runs. Ride of the Valkyries music optional. Personally I'm a big fan of the dire bears, tame a couple of high levels, breed them and then rule the island. Great speed, weight and tankyness (pretty sure that's a real word). Plus they're super cute!

[@icebear3281]

I recently started playing Ark again after not playing since before ragnarok came out. I have been playing for about two weeks and have not been wiped. What I did was sort by players and choose the lowest populated server. My base was also hidden on ragnarok there’s a lot of jungle there and possible hidden base locations. I transferred to aberration with the same criteria and I can literally build out in the open like it is PVE it feels like singleplayer but with official server rates. Also with aberration there is literally Ovis everywhere and taming takes less than an hour for high level tames it’s amazing. When I need to raid I just transfer servers

Tame it for the novelty. There's not unique utility to get from it, but it's rare so might as well check it off the list. Don't tame it where it spawns, though, because you'll probably find yourself running headfirst into a pack of carnivores because Equuses take a while to tame and cover a lot of ground if they're not dropped into a pen.

It will move forward even when it's overweight.

[@kmgg5961]

I killed an allosaurus with my stego easily. I personally don't thing they are good dinos. I would wrather go for carnotaurus.

[@sevendubb]

If you don't know Equus/Unicorn is an absolute monster assistant for taming... especially if you are using a crossbow. The alternate attack, "Buck"/"Kick", inflicts an insane amount of torpor damage, instantly. Something like 10-15x the health damage. Leveling health and melee, you can create horses that KO absolutely massive carnivores before you even take 100 damage (imprint, mate boost, etc.). The attack uses a lot of stamina (300ish?), but don't worry, these things barely use any stam for anything else! The alternate attack is the perfect thing for killing time between crossbow/tranq shots - if you insist on wasting ammo when the horse does it for free hehe. If I'm bored of cheesing my way to tames.. I like to tranq arrow, kick, run, repeat. When playing on splitscreen with my gf, it's also endless laughs watching raptors and terror birds that chase the other get the ol' one-kick-quit when we are running around the world, listening to our 'Horse Adventure' playlist. Eat meat. Leave a few extra stacks of meat on your horse - don't worry, it has a fantastic weight limit. It will spoil in time. Probably a lot sooner/faster than you go through tranq darts. The horse's primary attack is highly proficient for collecting berries (narco) to make more narcotics on-the-go, to turn all those lame regular arrows you find on corpses into tranq arrows. Seriously, everyone. Raise yourself a few horses. Try one with weight and speed stacked. Try one with stam and melee or hp and melee. Try a balanced distribution. Whatever you do, you're going to be surprised if you haven't messed with these 'dinos' yet ;-) (my go-to 'Mount' tame group is an argy and a horse... argy provides perfect and easily controlled 'air support' and acts as a flying storage box, and can carry the horse over large gaps/oceans with ease)

I most definitely agree with the Argentavis. Even when compared to the Manticore (which I personally hate) I believe that the Argy is overall a better mount when all aspects of gameplay are considered not just speed and damage. I would have maybe moved the Therizinosaurus up as it is an all-purpose dino at higher levels. While I agree with your assessment of the Baryonix I would maybe have to put Dire Wolves or Sabertooths in its place, just because of ease of taking and lake of materials (Wolf) to ride. I would also have put the Dodic and Anky in the honorable mention over most of those dinos. You are not going to be able to do end game without them unless you love the grind.

1k subscribers without any video Your name is wrong

[@insertcreativenamehere7377]

It’s not wrong or right, it’s just preference based.

[@Necaradan666]

Crazytalk. Not including the Ankylo and doed, you're not going to get anywhere towards building a nice base with hand tools as a solo player. I'd have put them high on the list and push everything but the Argent back a few places.

[@zedwasabi]

I also used to be a solo ark player and I agreed with everything on this list. Great video Phlinger.

Bro, this guy is J A C K E D

[@crazyman22444]

Bro, you sound like you filmed this on a Monday morning. It's a good video, no doubt, but you sound so out of it in the beginning lmaoo.

[@jurassician3725]

For any harder to find aquatic creature, go to herbivore island. There is at least 1-2 basilos there, just keep in mind if your using a raft Leedsichthys often spawn around there too.

[@SuperSpectus]

Glad to see that you look so favorably on my 2nd-most-favorite dino, the Baryonyx! I found that a decent Bary unlocks a LOT of content for me, especially water-related content. Their spin move will stun everything up to and including an Alpha Megalodon, and it's an area-effect stun that lasts ten seconds, making it much easier to deal with the mantas that hang around a Basilosaurus. And they absolutely mow through pesky schools of Pirahna like hot water on ice cubes. Mine allowed me to openly explore the oceans for the first time. There's one sad change that must be noted, especially in the context of your praise for them as cave explorers: the constriction in the passageway in the Upper South Cave on the Island (Artifact of the Pack) has been redesigned. It now has a projection into the passage that specifically blocks both a Bary and a Sabertooth. Best mount I have found so far that can pass is a Dire Wolf.

[@PyrokineticFire1]

cryopods + pve settings (to remove cryo sickness) will remedy that cave restriction

[@chadamonkey5641]

Completely disagree about the Basilosaurus. It's a neat tame and all, but it's nowhere even close to being a necessary tame. Get a good Sarco with a good saddle and 10k health, use it to tame a Squid, use the squid to harvest the jellyfish and to kill everything in the ocean. Squids have no crush depth, you can't be shocked off them, and if you get stunned you can still attack or use ink jet to un-shock yourself. A good enough squid can allow you to solo the western underwater cavern and get tons of good loot. Also, the squid can grab mosas and does torpor while it holds them so you can knock it out without tranqs and even drag it up towards the surface for easier taming. Lastly, if you have a friend on another aquatic dino backing you up, you can grab alpha mosas and alpha sharks so they can't attack your friend. The squid is the only creature in the entire game that is able to grab an alpha, it's the king of the sea. It is #1.

[@Ugramosch]

oh yeah, the good old sarco. one of the best allrounder and extra fast swimmer. plus saddle at lv 35 ^^

[@Jeffreycrow1986]

To be fair, Thylacoleo on a solo game and/or server, is EPIC! 'cause, you can traverse every terrain, shoot from it's back, let it tank for you, has enormous weight, HP, Stam, Dmg.. I'd say next to an Argy (after TLC) is the only 2 must have creatures I want!

[@margaretdonathan1238]

Iv played for a couple mounths and yes the super dodo is also my favorite but for starters any kind of flight is great i realy like how quick a sarco can be under water though if it came to a pvp a sarco is good for under water battle but yes super dodo is a must have as well as the other selections keep up the good work

[@Kindlesmith70]

Never seen an Ovis. Baryonyx is cool. Not as fun as 5-8 Dimorphodons, though. Things just die when bombarded by them.

[@youtheme8035]

Lil tip, if you are taming a high torpor drop animal on any sort of solo thing, bring tons of narcotics and the right food, ive had way to many things happened when i was solo taming high torpor drops, i mainly tame carnivores sooo...

[@icebear3281]

When playing solo I like to amass cryopoded dinos and spread them throughout 1x1 bases for the day I need them. Of course nearly none of em are necessary and when it comes to the absolute requirements i completely agree with this top 5 list.

[@GreatFoxGodOniKitsune]

The Direwolfs jump ability can be used to give it super speed. If done correctly, it can be a top 5 or>10 fastest land dino.

[@youtubeisawebsite7484]

How would your ranking change after TLCs, if at all?

[@MickeFloo]

This dude talks like on a Rick N Morty Interdimensional Commercial

[@unforgiven181]

not a bad video... but you should practice your Script first... you mess ups get kind of distracting

[@rainfall7588]

[@haeuth684]

Thank god you included Baryonyx it's one of the best dinos i have for caves, sea, swamps

[@evabawden4828]

Phlinger: "so what you do is.. you, a.. slaughter the baby's and quickly harvest them"

[@QuasarX69420]

Damn. The old argentavis looked really ugly. Glad it got a tlc.

[@khsamurai5170]

looking back on this argy's are even better now xD I think this was back when you couldn't pick up anky's.

[@kittyd472]

Honestly I never would have thought of the Rex/Alo combo. Or using the the that way. I avoid the thezos because of their wicked claws. Also never even occurred to me that they bary would be a good caver. Other than those my list is pretty much the same as yours.

[@thescribe5494]

Therizinos really aren't that threatening. Build a 1x1 structure 2 walls high. Put a ceiling on top, a window in the wall facing either side of the beach. Save up some tranq arrows/darts if you got them and aggro said thero. The hardest part is the LOOOOOOOOOOOOONGGGGGGGG ass taming time. Especially if you're stuck using berries. At least that's how it was back when I was playing a couple years ago. I pretty much left shortly after troodons were introduced. I'll give you guess as to why lmao!

[@XadeGrimm]

Safest place in Ark is not on the ground.

[@cmenabled4192]

I love the way when you said that the water dino is not the mosasourus, it shook its head in depression
