How do I tame a mammoth? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a mammoth.
Check-out this on your game
Take a ride of mammoth then go under water with it. Then come out from water . Then you can see in your right, there comes (ready to spray)
Then you have to long press on right . The mammoth will spray water . You can stunned any flier. And you can also fill the crops with water.
' Whoever suggests taming a mammoth with 2k+ stimberries, you're an idiot'
Quote from my wife
This is completely unrelated but if you put level 9999 and taming 0.01 it would take almost 42 million stimberries
So we have Manny and Diego now we need Sid.
Knocking it out was the easy part, now I have to defend it 24/7
If you are on your own try shooting it with a trank arrow and let it follow you to a safe spot I.e your base so you can tame it safely and you are closer to all your stuff too.
I don't reccommend taming a Lv.150 with Mejoberries like I did :p
(mobile) best way to tame is using vegetable with sppthing palm most easy way to get it is hunters cave. Just bring a 2x2 stone trap almost 100 trank arrows on crossboss 8-10 spike walls and about 50 or 60 carrots 1 soothing palm and make sure you have a good armor or a weapon to fend of hostile and place your trap on a good spot to protect ,the difficult part is to find a lvl300 and luring it . Make sure you have a flyer though PT is good. Goodluck
Hope this works for you.
very easy to tame.
fly over to the biom they spawn in (usually snow)
get on a nearby hill or rock and kill ones you don't want as they usually spawn in 2s or 3s (recommend an argentavis). then start shooting the mammoth with tranquillisers. when it torpor runs finish it off, they are very slow so very easy to hit. (protect from dire wolves, yutiranus, etc....)
hope this helps <3
Take more tranqs than doodledex says you need, the intimidation status effect it gives you reduces the amount of torpor it takes per tranq.
Very easy to tame. They are just a bit slower than a human so you could just walk back and tranq. Run away once in a while because it does catch up while you are walking. Once your mammoth of choice is knocked just run away for 10 seconds and the rest will lose aggro. Mine just took down a low level alpha Rex and took about 1000 damage after I put 250 armour hat. It's got a good health pool anyways. It's better than the beaver in that it can defend itself and my base, it can hold much more wood. It also collects berries extremely well. Thatch is also not a problem with this. And on mobile it's water spray can knockback even a rex incase I gotta bail... Did I mention that it's faster than a rex? Only thing is that it doesn't get as much wood but in the Arctic there's plenty of wood. Just spend a few more minutes collecting wood is the solution...
Can be found in the snow biome, be careful for other dino's though, snow biome is a dangerous place.
Get on a raft, find one on the shore & just keep strolling away while you pump it with tranq darts. Just better have kibble, cause theses mammoths are picky 🤣
Best way to tame is have a crossbow with butt load of tranq arrows walk backwards tranqing it as you go every now and then you need to turn around to get a bit further away. I know this works because i have three mammoths that i used this exact stratigy on
Have a friend who tried to tame five one for everyone in the server and it took him forever he had about 37 high levels die to Daedons 😭 (protect them well)
When knocked out, make sure you don’t let anything
attack it. That happened to me an took four hours to tame.
If your taming a high level mammoth then use kibble because if you don’t you’ll sit there for hours waiting for it to tame.
Go into the winter biome and they can mainly be found around the mountains
On the raft build a 3x3 foundation with 3 walls high and a ramp going up into the raft. Go to the winter area youll find Mammoths there. Get it into the raft. Once in the raft shoot it with tranq arrows. Starve it and then feed. Kibble is 80times its food.
They aren't extremely fast and are easily outrun, so just shoot it with a crossbow using tranq arrows and turn around and runa. Few steps when it gets too close. ( may be best to take out any other mammoths before attempting to tame )
