ARK: Survival Evolved & Ascended Companion
Tips & Strategies
I’m not sure if this is a glitch or it’s what really happens but I usually carry one into a wooden taming pen and leave it there for a while. While waiting I go do random things, like kill a bunch of things at Carno Island/The Dead Island for some XP. After around 15-30 minutes I go back and knock it out and give it some Gallimimus Egg Kibble. As soon as I put the kibble in its inventory it tamed immediately. A new way to starve tame I guess? Also there were no corpses or anything in the pen to feed them.
More Terror Bird Taming & KO Tips
By far on the list of the most unappreciated mounts. The terror bird may be a costly tame but it's a raptor on speed. It has excellent stamina and mobility, making it a good scout and travel mount.
To the person who wants to make a Yoshi: I bred 2 brown and cream birds and ended up with a mutation in a deep teal green from my 5th egg while trying for a secondary male breeder.. Wish I could post a pic. I will paint a saddle red and name her first male offspring Yoshi in your honor!
The terror bird is one of the best travelling tames in the game
It's glide ability is better than the raptor jump
It's speed is better than the raptor
It's stamina, health, damage and turning radius is better than the raptor
It's overall just a better raptor
This is what happens when a dodo jacks up on steroids
It's like if a Dodo and a Raptor had a kid on crack. The Terror bird is extremely fast and it can outrun almost anything. Meaning even though it's weak it still makes for a great mount. Especially in redwoods:
"Oh noo an alpha Carno!..SIKE "- Proceeds to jump of a cliff.
Their big downside is very low weight but that can be solved by leveling.
They are also very easy to tame:
- Argy + trap
- Bola + [knockout method]
They're also very good for the lava cave because of their gliding ability.
Recap:
-Easy to tame(bola+tranqs)
-fast(as fu- boii)
-gliding(lil wings go wee)
Definitely would recommend for anyone living or traveling through redwoods, anyone wanting a scout, or anyone who's having trouble with some caves.
To the guy who said load it’s inventory with junk, don’t, the junk will disappear when it wakes up
The most important thing to know about this bird is that it's eggs are used for rhino kibble. Thank me later. Rhinos are OP
TORPOR DRAINS HELLA FAST
BEWARE!
Bulbdog lord, archy lord, DODO LORD. A dodo’s revenge. Don’t deny how you wiped them off the beach. I have an army of these and dodos. I maxed out health and damage for the dodo and damage and speed for the terrors, it is a terror. I am here. I am always here. And you are a suspect. You kill a dodo? I kill your progress and feed it to the ocean. You have been warned
Pro tip: use bio toxin for tames as it is more potent or just as potent as narcotics. It is easy to get them because all you need to do is to kill cnaidras and harvest them. I am not aware if it damages them or not for PC if you feed it to ko'd tames but as of now I have no tames dead from bio toxin on mobile.
