Overview
R-Parasaur is a herbivorous variant creature from the Genesis: Part 2 series. It functions as a mobile gatherer with the ability to harvest a wide range of plant-based resources while ridden. The R-Parasaur excels at rapid collection of berries, seeds, and fiber, making it ideal for early- to mid-game resource farming. It can be airlifted by Argentavis, Karkinos, Megalosaurus, Quetzal, or Tusoteuthis for fast deployment across the map.

More about taming the R-Parasaur
R-Parasaur must be knocked out before taming. Use a Bola, Bear Trap, or Plant Species Y to immobilize it. Once restrained, sedate it with Tranq Arrows from a Bow, Crossbow, or Compound Bow, or use a Tek Bow, Fabricated Sniper Rifle, or Longneck Rifle with Tranquilizer Darts. Basic Kibble is the best taming food. It takes about 8 pieces and around 7 minutes to tame at level 224 under Official settings with no Narcotics needed. Use the calculator below for your settings.

Tips
The R-Parasaur gathers 10× Berries, Seeds, and Rare Flowers with its melee attack. It harvests 8× Fiber and Cactus Sap, making it efficient for early-game base construction. Its AlertPulse ability does not contribute to gathering. It can be carried by Argentavis, preserving its weight reduction during flight. It is highly vulnerable to spike walls, taking +100% damage. Fire-based attacks are only 40% as effective due to its -60% resistance.
