How do I tame a therizinosaurus? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a therizinosaurus.
All I did was made a stone structure of 2x4 made stone walls 2 walls high agroed it got it in the trap left it there for 2 in game days came back knocked it all it's hunger was down so it tamed immediately with some rocky karrats
I just hatched twins is this rare?
Its the most aggressive herbivore, so be careful ! It's a classic knock out and it eats berries or megalosaurus kibble which I really recommend because the tame takes a veeery long time. It also loses torpor quite fast so you're gonna need a lot of narcotics. But once it's tames, you got a real beast: it can mess up against the rex and is a farming machine. Leftclick for wood and thatch, rightcklick for fiber and "c" for berries. It's the first herbivore that harvests bodies: leftclick for meat and hide etc. And "c" for only hide. You can increase the amount of gathered ressources by leveling up, similar to the moschops.
If you meet this thing in the wild as a beginner survivor, don't hesitate, just run
Those animals are killers.
The first hit is to destroy your armor,
Second hit to kill you
These tickle chickens are really great for getting berries and are also good for defense. Wen knocked out there torpor drops really fast. They are aggressive in the wild are pretty fast too so be careful wen taming.
here's how to tame a therizino using a very cheap method - slider, a guy that just did this. Read through the end.
Materials needed:
a mount that you can stand on (stego, trike... I used a stego for this)
crossbow/longneck
about 100 tranp arrows/darts (you'll see why in a moment)
~75 crops
~187 narcotics
~450 narcoberries(black ones)
or it's preferred kibble
or 40-50 biotoxin(i didn't use biotoxin so I'm not sure how much you would need to use so bring extra just in case)
spino dossier location/a rock that the tickle chicken can't reach you on(tamed mine at spino dossier; or you can just use the mount you bring but make sure it has high health)
Steps:
1. With your mount scout for a tickle chicken and clear the area if your a bad shot like me
2. Bring your mount to the spino dossier and have them on passive, that is important. Set them up opposite of the actual dossier and on the other side of the ruins with the staircase
3. Jump onto that ruin, and then jump and walk forward into the taller part of that ruin(follow this step as I have written it because it is very important)
4. Look for that chicken and shoot it with your crossbow/longneck
5. While it's running towards you shoot it one more time before it gets up against the pillar you are on
6. When it gets to you start shooting it again
7.(It might not happen every time) When it starts running away stay up there because it can't hit you
8. Keep shooting it if it will run into the other side of the dossier and get stuck where you can shoot it until its knocked out once it does go down and put in your narcotics/biotoxin(the berries will come in at a later time while your taming) as well as the food you're goin to use, I used about 75 corn
9. Once your narcotics run out you'll need to put in your blackberries. IMPORTANT NOTE: it's best to feed the sleep drug 2 at a time a regularly. what I mean by this is feed it when its torpor is about to go below a certain number, ex: feed it twice before it goes below 400 or 500, the number doesn't really matter as long as you can keep it from waking up before it is tamed
10. After you run out of sleep drugs put the blackberries in, do the same thing I mentioned in step 9 but lower that number to about 150-200 if you don't have that many blackberries, if you have a stego feed all of your blackberries to it and hit some bushes with it you'll get a ton of berries and seeds. If you do have enough berries follow those instructions except for gathering more berries.
Before I continue onto stepp 11 I want to let anyone who's reading this tip that play on console/PC I got no clue if this works for you since I only play on mobile, you could try this but I don't know if it'll work and I would hate for you to lose your mount and life if it doesn't. Sorry😔.
11. If you get bored of waiting like me you could do the sleep trick and skip the time but you might want to trap the theri so it doesn't get killed by anything after it tames
12. Name you tickle chicken
13. put saddle on tickle chicken if you have the materials for one or if you got one from daily gift
14. tickle some random creatures
Locations:
Spino dossier is across from herbivore island on the cliff part of it.
Extra notes:
If it turns the other way(away from the corner) chase it until you knock it out using whatever gets it stuck.
I am lvl 32/33 and I just did this if you're wondering if this is just a false tip or an actual helpful tip.
If you don't have a saddle already made or don't have blueprints don't worry just play the game how you normally would and you might get a blueprint from the daily gift or until you reach lvl 69.
This was how to tame a therizino with your guide, slider. Have a great time taming and good luck👍🏾👍🏾.
I always carry a Large Pillar and some Ceilings on my Argy. If I see any big dinos worth taming I place the pillar and the ceilings on it, land on it and just tranq safely from there. Just make sure your flyer doesn't go flying in front of the dino. Also, as usual, get ready to run after the dino before the last shot. So probably better to clear out the area first if you can.

I gathered stacks of narcotics and bio toxins to keep this thing asleep
Kills everything in its path do not try to tame unless you have great armor and a lot more health use a weapon that has a fast knockout time such as the longneck with tranq darts and a lot of narcotics and mejoberries then just wait takes a long time to tame so be prepared to protect it from all kinds of carnivores while it is knocked out
Saw one of these and I wanted to tame it.. I got all the things I need and I wanna know if this is worth using a soothing balm on?
up if yes down if no
The best way is to starve tame it and you better have alot of bio toxin that is how I did it and get high ground! in mobile version
these things wake realy quickly.I wanted to try to tame a low lvl (8) it woke up without narc within 5 mins
This is my favorite Pokemon...
In Jan 2020 I watched an ad and it gave me the saddle I was lvl 28 and I was excited to have a lvl 69 saddle, it took along time to tame, I ONLY used berries and had to kill tons of jelly fish to keep it down. Nocking down I went on a cliff and shot it with narcotic arrows
Torpor drains really fast so you have to sit with it hope this was helpful
(Consider L I k I n G)
~Porky
Tip: Bring LOADS of narcotics, it's torpor drops quickly and it takes long to tame too
Bring 450 narcotics. It wakes up fast. Put it in a stone 3x3 stone 2 doorway high box and hit him with tranq arrows depending on lvl. Don't get caught. Good luck. Tickle Tickle
Lemme tame him.
Wait should I.....
