Megapithecus vs. Megapithecus 

The Megapithecus will confront you at close range and may even hurl stones at you from afar.

Bring tamed animals that can withstand such assaults, and avoid mounting creatures that make you susceptible to attacks, since the boulder may strike you.

Keep mounted to prevent being killed immediately by the creature’s assaults or boulders, and stay away from the edge to avoid falling.

The Megapithecus has a lesser health than most bosses, making it relatively simple to kill with powerful animals like Rexes that can tank and inflict damage.

Brew Kentrosauruses for their ability to reflect damage or Allosaurus for their high damage per second are two more options.

Tips

  • To prevent being pushed into a corner or off an edge by the Megapithecus, whistle your dinos to attack it as soon as it gets within range.
  • It’s preferable to remain behind the Megapithecus while fighting it so you may attack without fear and whistle your animals better while moving.
  • Because the Megapithecus has less health than other foes but does greater damage, it is preferable to employ animals with a lot of health.
