ARK: Survival Evolved & Ascended Companion
Tips & Strategies
They can jump through stone windows. If you have any Windies in your taming pen, close them before you grab these guys.
They are not on mobile! So sad, now I I can’t get a good boi…least I have the dire wolf.
You can find them in the city on extinction
How to make a meat farm!
Step 1: tame a pack of hyaenadons
Step 2: equip them all with meat packs
Step three: put them all in an enclosed space and set to aggressive and wandering
Step 3: use an argy or something to pick up creatures like dodos and lystros
Step 4: sit back and watch the carnage
Keep doing this every so often and later when you need meat or hide check the hyaenadons inventories.
I put them in a place where trilobites spawn often as well so it was also a chitin farm.
If you startle the hyaenodon, the taming percentage goes down so try not to startle it!
It's easy enough to just kill the pack and follow the one you want to tame. Full ghilly and just stay behind it, just within reach of petting.
Hyaenodons are opprotunists, meaning if they have an opprotunity to get a quick, free meal, they'll take it. Corpses? Heck yeah. Low HP? Yup.
If something gets too close, they get scared or something and you have to start all over! Move them into a trap or something first. Spread the word so that people don’t waste their time stupidly!!!
Pick it up with an Argy, drop it in a 2 by 2 with one wall on each side being a tall door way. Pet it, hide behind the wall for 30 seconds and pet it again. Don’t get in front of it and pet it, always get behind. Also use Ghillie gear so it has less of a chance to spot you
If you can try and to lead them to a deep place of water since they will swim above the water and then just pet them from underneath you will be able to tame more too because the are unable to swim fast
Easy guide;
1. Grab the strongest one in the pack with a flyer.
2. Bring it to an area clear of anything.
3. Pet it multiple times.
They have the cutest taming method evr
Full ghille, kill off all dinos around the hyena you want. Dont need trap.
Just patiently crouch 100% of the time!!!
It'll stop, it'll turn so be prepared to turn with it staying behind it.
Don't be over eager to get too close an pet, every 2nd time they stop, wait for them to turn an then pet.
Pet then back off a good distance immediately.
Cactus broth helps but not needed.bit will help keep other wild dinos away better.
When taming, stay crouched and behind it the whole time. Pet it them back off, count down from 30 in your head and repeat until they tame. MAKE SURE TO STAY BEHIND THEM AT ALL TIMES!
