Purlovias Should Be Changed

My suspicion is that allowing them to be ridden would allow players to glitch through the ground mesh while they're buried, but devs should still try to improve that.

I like the look of purlovias and that would be a good way to get more out of them.

I would agree with this, but Basilisks are able to bury while being ridden so it should be entirely possible to avoid that with Purlovia.

I don't find this just and this should be changed to make the game more fair. There should be saddles made for them and furthermore like even Ovis can be ridden which makes no sense.

I don't really think this constitutes as a "fair" or "not fair" situation. I agree Purlovia could be made rideable just to make moving them around a bit easier, but they don't need a saddle since I don't see them being preferred battle mounts. Direwolves should get a saddle before Purlovia do if we are gonna go that route.  

Yeah I mean they can definitely make it that they are only able to be ridden or buried. Works just like a reaper IMO if reaper can do that I don't see why Devs don't do it on Purlovias. Feels like they put half the effort on the dino and released it. haha 

Well be it saddle or not, they should really make them rideable. Like even Dimorph can be picked up lol

Sì, voglio dire, possono sicuramente farcela in modo che possano solo essere cavalcati o sepolti. Funziona proprio come un Reaper IMO se Reaper può farlo, non vedo perché gli sviluppatori non lo facciano su Purlovias. Sembra che abbiano messo metà dello sforzo sul dinosauro e lo abbiano rilasciato. 

it reminds me of the story of ark itself, a half-done job

Absolutely not. There's a reason wolves don't have armor in the first place. Even before their TLC, the devs recognized they'd be too strong with armor. 

Purlovia in comparison, are only notable for being an annoyance in the wild.

If they are just an annoyance, they should stay that way as well then. Not my fault the devs said they would think about giving the wolves saddles. ALSO I HEAVILY disagree they would be too strong with armor considering nonsense like Shadowmanes exist. Wolves don't even have bleed, all they have is a pack bonus and a strength howl. 

well then they should just make it rideable than just purely whistle commanded 

Come on, we need more people discussing about this and the 101 things that ark has made unfair for certain dinos so that this becomes a fun game for all. Just like how you can't breed basilisks as well hehe
