Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a astrodelphis? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a astrodelphis.
Not sure if this is patched as single player is technically a few updates behind to official/unofficial servers but if you have a hover skiff you can just grab one of them and fly near them for a perfect pet/feed all without chasing it around and worrying about wild agro.
For anyone wondering, taming boosters do not affect its taming speed of the amount of progress from 1 element. It only varys off the amount of element you feed it.
After taming them they it raw meat
2 people with a skiff works like a charm on a boosted server it's broken can't seem to get the extra level though
You can breed them and they fit in dino gates so traping works
I found lvl25. First time eat 1 element, secondary eat 3 elements and 3rd time eat 5 elements and at was 5.8% taming and 4th eat about 9 elements and completed this tame... Very fast will hungry... If you tamed and very hungry your dolphin then you need drop raw meat in inventory.. Dont eat element only when you tame!!! Little aggresive but beautiful animal
Just tamed one lvl 50. Trapped in the entrance way and kept the taming going. Its a pattern for the petting and element feed. Went from 1 to 3 to 5, repeat. Keep up with it!!!
Pet it and feed element. Boom, pretty space dolphin.
So you go and pet it then after u can feed it element to tame it
This crazy mutated dolphin is very easy to tame. HOWEVER, you unlock its saddle at level 120, so it is basically useless until then. Just pet and feed, the usual stuff... Get a fast hibrid dino before, because the space biome has water physics. Why fast, you say? If you stay still for more than 1 second, you get eaten up by voidwyrms. They shock you and your tame, with absurd amounts of dps. Careful! The astrodelphis, however, is pretty casual... They don't inflict damage at all, besides their bomp attack. Once you get it, focus on other stuff besides movement speed, since its tek saddle, when crafted, gives it a ton of rocket power. Cool flier, cool speed, cool rocket saddle. Good luck!
To Tame it Fast on Official PvP:
Always Start when green crystals are spawned in space.
Harvest green crystals for element with Tek Punch. I tried with pick and mining drill, tek punch gives pure elements from 3to4 punches on closely gathered crystal nodes and not shards.
Put the element on 0 number slot.
Kite the dino by going near the 1 which you want to tame out of other dino group by just going near it and flying away.
Pet it 2 times and then feed it.
Spam e on pc fast to pet and feed and dont approch it from front of its face as it pushbacks us.

First pet is face to face then it runs away. Next stay on its side or at its tail when trying to pet and feed element to avoid bites and it getting mad. After it eats the 1, 5, 10, 15 element(it’s random) it runs you should be careful not to fly into it but boost to keep up if needed cause if you take to long to pet and feed again taming percentage will drop drastically!
Requires engram to use the saddle
Taking it is the easiest part, getting it’s saddle is a flippen pain in the ass, as you have to be level 120 just to get the engram, which is not a good thing for casual ARKers like me who don’t really do the boss battles.So, unless you’ve done the bosses, the only way to get the astrodelphis saddle is to get it in supply drop or from a friend that does do bosses
You can have someone grab it with the Tek skiff it makes the whole process a lot easier
It will starve very fast after it's tamed so bring food or cryopod
If your lucky the space can give element shards and element making it an easy tame 🤗
Use a skiff leave it in the beam and tame it passively that way. After tame it gliches out for 5 mins but chill it will be fine
Astrodelphis get stuck in the two hallways in the middle up against the ceiling. No voidwyrms to deal with and they can't go anywhere. Just watch out for the noglin on the floor.
Tame like a horse/hyena you need element in last slot and you need to feed and pet it
