Best Beginner Dinosaur for Solo Players

Closed thread Closed by archive
u/OP·2 months ago

What's a decent dinosaur to learn the game with if you're usually playing alone?

I keep picking something that looks cool, spending ages growing it, then getting deleted by something I didn't even see. Not asking for the strongest thing in the game, just something that won't punish every beginner mistake quite so hard.

Pick based on your playstyle, not just the stats. If you hate fighting, don't choose something that requires you to win every encounter.

The best beginner dinosaur is the one you don't get emotionally attached to. You'll understand after your first loss.

Learn the map, water locations and sound cues first. Those skills transfer between dinosaurs.

Also, stop sprinting constantly. You are not late for work.

Check the current version before trusting an old tier list. Balance changes make some older recommendations questionable.

And don't follow random strangers just because they're also your species. Sometimes that's a terrible idea.
