You 110% need bug repellent, tried taming these and every time I got targeted by bugs and they would ruin everything.
Bloodstalker
The Bloodstalker is spider-like creature in ARK: Genesis found in the bogs.
How ARK players tame and knock out the Bloodstalker: what to feed it, what to knock it out with, and how to keep it safe.
If you have your menu out while taming, bugs will not spawn to kill you.
Dont need to put blood bags in any slot. They'll eat them straight from your inventory.
Be warned that multiple swarms will come an interupt your taming process knocking you loose an you'll fall an possibly die. So bring help.
Just tame a lot of low level parasaurs they’ll give you 100% taming efficiency better than blood packs
1. Taming efficiency is going to be quite low during tame and in order to fix that, you need to sacrifice some tames to it
2. Other Bloodstalkers may try to grab you while your already being succ'd, in order to stop that, kill all other Bloodstalkers in the visible…

2. Other Bloodstalkers may try to grab you while your already being succ'd, in order to stop that, kill all other Bloodstalkers in the visible area
3. To stop Insect Swarms from interrupting your taming, open your inventory during the taming process, they for some reason don't detect you with your inv open
4. Bring a parachute just in case you are dropped for some reason
5. When he is tamed, only use him to get around and only level Stamina and Health. He is a garbage fighter and if his health gets low, he will start eating you and will kill you but in order to stop yourself from dying, put blood packs in your inv, he will eat those instead until his health is normal again
6. They can be breeded but be warned, when they have an egg, you cannot pick up the egg because it becomes attached to the ground
Have fun and good luck taming a Bloodstalker
If raising babies. Use bloodbags. They eat raw meat like a giga practically. Meat=10 food blood pack=200 food. Hope this helps
The trick I used for high level ones, and you won't find this anywhere cause I have searched for weeks myself...., is high level phiomia. They have the best effective tame % and it is hp based. So leave them cryo'd then level hp before sacrificing them to stalkers. …
The trick I used for high level ones, and you won't find this anywhere cause I have searched for weeks myself...., is high level phiomia. They have the best effective tame % and it is hp based. So leave them cryo'd then level hp before sacrificing them to stalkers. Sacrifice them while using cactus broth. They'll never grab you. Once it's 100% efficiency, get naked & get grabbed with blood in your inventory. After that it's a simple ghillie/bug repellant. Don't use cactus broth during that part or they'll instantly disconnect. Figuring all of this out made taming easy as all get out. Nooblets video is dead wrong on certain aspects, so if you watched that, forget most of it. Basic kibble tame Phiomia. It's worth it. No other comment on here mentioned any of this. Time efficiency and effectiveness, this is the absolute best way to tame them.
1127 bloodbags for a level 145 on 1x rated
Letting it eat a few tames before latching on to you buffs it's taking effectiveness so requires less blood bags
You can use baby oviraptors to pick up your bloodstalker eggs, and then the baby oviraptors die their body time is the same as the egg incubation timer so you can drag the egg anywhere until it hatches.
When breeding the egg cannot be moved once layed
Use mind wipe and put all points into health while getting blood packs , it will speed up how fast you can get them by a hug amount
You just need to have a Gilly, take it off when you find the stalker you want, then while taming equip it again to prevent swarms from spotting you, and also helps after you tame it, cos another stalker can take you straight off it once tamed lol its happend ^^
Be prepared to farm thousands of blood bags, I've successfully tamed 5 for them to then insta-die due to anti-mesh detection, becoming a hassle now. Raise awareness.
Broken again takes a ton of blood packs
When taming these magnificent creatures I find it easier to grapple the creature out the tree. It makes the process so much easier and quicker as other blood hungry spiders cant grab you while you get your 150 Bloodstalker 😜 👍🏻so everyone can see 💪💪💪
You can tamea bloodstalker purely by letting it kill you over and over again, just place a bunch of beds by one and just let it eat you
Took me ~110 blood bags for a 150 on 3x. Bring a lot of parachutes as many blood stalkers will latch on to you on while you look for the right level
When maturing a Bloodstalker yes they do eat meat but it has to be RAW MEAT! Do not leave a thorough filled with cooked meat after reaching juvenile.. it will starve. -_-
For a level 145 on 3x taming, it took roughly 800 blood packs to tame one. This is how PEOPLE CAN KNOW HOW TO TAME THESE FORSAKEN CREATURES!!!!
