Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a bloodstalker? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a bloodstalker.
Tamed a 145 on 2x today, took 119 blood packs!
Also... when raising, they seem to eat raw meat only... put cooked meat in the trough and they wouldn’t touch it.
On official Evo x2 a 150 as of March 8 took 101 blood packs YW
Small tribes as of March 6th 2020 is broken and you will need thousands of blood packs again.
To tame you need like 9000 blood packs atleast on official servers.
Feed it dinos to increase the tame speed up to 30%
Want cheap best way (imo) to tame this? Well get yourself a flak chest with a parachut, cross bow with grapple hook and a lvl 5 argy. Once you have the blood, just have your argy fly, grapple to your argy then whistle it to fly up and fly high up in center of bog, keep flying around and pretty soon one just grabs you from far and you tame it. Got 7 already day 1 (irl) official.
So I just tamed one at 145 was the base before tame and it took exactly 1175 blood bags to tame it out ! This is official server and normal rate no 2x no modifications! Hope this helps
Put blood packs in a tame while searching for these as sometimes they can be on the ground and a level you don’t want can grab you. They spawn in the middle of bog high on the trees. All you have to do is have the blood packs and let it grab you. Don’t fight or touch anything! You won’t take damage as long as you have the packs in your inventory.
Blood packs can tame this.
You have to have it eat you
If you use a tek pistol to heal it, it will raise the taming effectiveness back to 100%
If you find a bloodstalker near ground, you can eat mind wipe and put everything into health, then you can put some beds on the ground and feed him with yourself. Its the same taming efficiency (57.1%) . But try it only if you dont have bloodpacks, because you will need a lot of deaths to take high level on, especialy on official server.
Genesis Part 2:
They are on the bottom left corner and bottom of the map in Rockwell’s Biome. You will find them on the ground.
For breeding: You can pick up the eggs, but you can’t see the baby’s stats in the Egg Incubator.
Super easy tame just get a lot of blood packs kill yourself a lot or instead of killing your self just make medical brews then go up to it let it eat the blood packs, you don’t have to put them in your inventory and it will find them, then you just wait until it is done taming P.S make sure you have food that you can give it because if it is hungry it will eat YOU!!
Don't look for them in the heights on Genesis part 2 m. They are on the ground and are quite buggy as soon as they touch a wall, which can be complicated to capture. Also be careful with other insects that are around.
Blood stalkers can be found on GENESIS 2 in the South corners of Rockwell’s Ring.
Keeping a safe distance away from it whilst it’s agro should allow it to pull you in and begin the taming process.
Have it grab you then have another person heal you with phase pistol.
DONT LET IT TAKE YOUR BLOOD USE THE BLOOD SUCKER NEEDLE TO GET BLOOD PACKETS
Use Something like a Moschops (That’s what I used) or any other small creature in case the taming effectiveness has gone down. (But don’t use animals like dodo’s, they are too small)
You’re not actually able to knock them out so don’t try it in pvp it could get u grabbed by a bloodstalker
Got one of these while 2x taming took 266 blood for a lvl 50 just brought a ghille grapples and 600 blood bags rode a megatherium there no problem
