Brontosaurus

Tank

Makes a decent tank due to its high HP and area denial tail attack. Due to their huge size, they can also take fire from bullets for other tames and tribe members, effectively creating a wall. (Level up and ).

Damage

Very good AOE and base damage. Too slow to chase down prey but can defend itself well enough. It can be utilized in certain warfare situations, like keeping enemies at bay with its tail, and itexcels at extended fights thanks to its great HP. Is limited by its lack of natural defense multipliers, speed, and attack speed. (Level up , and some ).

Transport

While slow, it has the third best base carrying capacity in-game. A ton of materials can also be placed in storage units on its back provided you equip a platform saddle. Good for local transport (Level up , and ).

Its platform saddle makes it possible to carry creatures as big as a Stegosaurus. Paired with creatures that have weight reduction for common resources such as stone, metal, and berries, a Bronto can carry more resources through the creatures on its back. A convoy of Brontos with platform saddles and many level-ups into make it possible to safely transport loads of resources in a single run provided they don't go near areas with large carnivores. Be sure to escort the convoy appropriately.

Gatherer

Excellent for gathering materials. Quite possibly the best gatherer in the entire game for , a resource need for all tiers of gameplay. If you tell the Bronto to attack near plants, you will acquire an enormous amount of resources, even resources it isn't specialized for like and . (Level up , , and ).

Mobile Base Platform

Use a to build a mobile base on the back of your Brontosaurus. Structures do not affect Dinosaur weight capacity, but storage does; increase weight if used for transport. cannot be placed and cannot be grown, but a variety of other defense mechanisms like manned turrets can be placed on its back. Tek or metal bases can also be built on its back to act as effective respawn points and resupply caches.(Level up , and ).

Wall Defender

Very effective in PVP, placing your Bronto by your outer walls can be a fantastic strategy to keep away players. Weigh down the bronto and keep it by the walls so that it is in the exact place you want it. Since the Bronto is near immue to knockback, with the only exception being the Diplodocus, it makes a great first line of defense. (Level and )

Genesis Escort Defender

A Brontosaurus can help you defend a creature if you have the creature between the Brontos legs, just make sure friendly fire is disabled, or it may take stomp damage. Additionaly, a Brontosaurus with a platform saddle and metal walls can be constructed to cover the entire Brontosaurus. Manned turrets can be added to help protect the escorted creature from predatory creatures.

Land clearer The Brontosaurus has a humongous AOE allowing for a massive area of destruction. Use this to demolish any trees, bushes, or dinos in your way, and you have a clear path to wherever you want.
