Taming & KO Tips
How do I tame a fasolasuchus? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a fasolasuchus.
If you attach a torch to your belt then fly into the pile of dirt it works like explosives but a lot cheaper.
Up this so more see this
To knock it out, use any sort of explosive (Grenades are cheap and have early unlock) and throw it at the Fasola while it's underground. It will look like a pile of sand and shouldn't react if you go up to it.
As soon as the explosion goes off, run up to the Fasola and mount it. You only have a few seconds to do this. Once you're on, try to find any nearby rocks/bones/etc and run into them. Every rock you hit will increase torpor and control. If control runs out, you will be dismounted.
DO NOT GO ON CLIFFS !! If the Fasola goes into the air at all, you will automatically dismount and lose all progress. Depending on your rates, it could take a long time to gain enough torpor.
TL;DR : Explode it, mount it, hit rocks, avoid cliffs.

On 1x a 150 takes 16 exceptional kibble or higher variant.
3x is 6 exceptional kibble.
Best method to tame is pre plan your route placing markers on the map for bones, sulfur and salt nodes. Do not hit the rib cages or skulls as they can’t be broken and have a likely chance to push you up and out of the ground which will knock you off of the faso. When you are about to fill the torpor to the max start pushing the controls for jumping and running as there is a chance you will be stuck inside the faso when it falls asleep. I suggest bringing 10 c4 if that’s what you are using and a wyvern on passive. Place c4 then whistle follow on the wyvern and detonate the c4. Repeat until tamed. And good luck everyone
When trying to knock it out steer it to the salt rocks, they give alot more torpor than normal rocks
150 took 6 Exceptional kibble on 3x to tame out to 224
While taming: Do not try to drive into the middle inner land parts. Stay in the dunes and search for Salt Rock groups. Hold your map open while driving, you can see the areas on it. It is more than 10x faster than trying to hit normal rocks at the dunes edge. Also you will not get dismounted with this way.
After the break rock/metal/salt process when it's unconscious tame it with exceptional kibble (yellow)
The type of rock really matters! If you are able to locate Crystal or metal nodes then make sure to hit those as it gives more torpor!
Use explosive like grenades and hit it when its buried then go in to every rock you see
Be prepared for this one. I brought 14 grenades, tent, multiple water sources, and had a buddy bringing extra food and refilled canteens out for me. 150 took me about 2 hours to drop with storms causing me to take breaks. Please over prepare when you set out to tame, this one is not quick.
Spawn code for this is incorrect on here, this is the actual code for a tamed one! Your welcome :P

A 140 on times 3 took us 5 kibble to tame we used the best kibble tho
How to tame fasolasuchus: 1: get a grenade and throw it at it when it’s in a sandpile 2: when you throw it its head will pop out of the ground with stars around it then jump on 3: when on run it into rocks or salt deposits which are best after enough rocks it ko’s and you can feed it meat or kibble and then it’s yours. Thank you for your time.
When riding its back try to hit bigger rocks and metal nodes to get more torpor
Update 1: With the addition of the dossier, we now have a better idea of how this thing will be tamed. It appears to be a mix of a “heavy” knockout tame (think kark, titano, rock golem) and a “riding” tame (like equus and ESPECIALLY voidwyrm). The dossier states that you must “soften it up with explosives,” before hopping on and steering it into a rock. Based on this, it appears that the taming process involves using explosive weapons to damage it to a certain threshold, allowing us to hop on its back and ride it for some time. We will then have to seek out a solid obstacle (like the aforementioned rock) to crash it into, likely inflicting torpor on it (it’s immune or heavily resistant to tranqs from what the dossier says). This process will likely have to be repeated until the big gator is downed, at which point it will likely be the standard “feed while it’s down” process. The dossier makes no mention about sacrificing armored tames to it, so this part of the original concept was likely scrapped.
Thank you for reading! Keep in mind that this probably won’t be entirely accurate to its actual release, but it should give a general idea on what to expect.

You need to blow it up to tame
So basically the way u tame this is to wait for it to dig down under the sand and make what looks like
a mound. Once its under toss a grenade or c4 on the mound and bliw it out of the ground. Itll become stunned for only a few seconds so youll have to be quick. Run up and press whatever prompt it gives u and start riding it. Once on it has a control meter that will go down decently quick. Youll have to drive it into rocks to build up that control meter again and the torpor meter aswell. It will take a very long time to knock out but once it does you feed it normally. The denser the rock the better to drive it into.

ressource nodes give a lot more torpor than regular stones. and the salt and bone deposits in the deep desert have very little obstacles around to dismount you...
This tip is for anyone having trouble taming high level ones on consle, I was having trouble with taming my 135 last night too but there is a way. If you look on your map there is like very small little patches of green or black a lot of those little splotches contain salts nodes with do work so if you try to go from patch to patch hitting salt eventually you will get it, it may take more explosives that usual though so make sure to stock up hope this helps
A good spot to tame them is near the geen Obelisk on the Mountain. It has a ton of metal ores which give more torpor than normal ones.
