Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a bloodstalker? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a bloodstalker.
Bring loads is blood packs as the amount required increases by level bring at least 1300 blood packs as a level 150 requires around that amount the just run around with bug repellent and eventually one will pull you in
If you don't have a flyer or anything your can use a thatch foundation, lots of ladders and a parachute if it drops you.
Site is pretty inaccurate I brought about 50 more blood packs than I needed (including 25% extra) and taming only came out to 70% I’d do some testing first on your server or bring at least 50% more.
U can tame things that u dont need. A couple of parasaurs maybe. Then let the blodstalker reel them in and BAM! Easy tame
A level 25 is 220 BP to take on a 1x server. I ran out of grappling hooks to get where they were so used the crystal Wyvern method with a twist (Hopped on my wyvern’s back, positioned myself so I wouldn’t fall off, looked through the spyglass at the stalker I wanted, whistled attack my target, the Wyvern flew up to attack it and I whistled passive when it got in the stalkers aggro range and then waited to be webbed up 🤣 I also had a parachutes just in case I fell off or the stalker dropped me)
If you’re able to try to find one that is alone since they can grab you away from another bloodstalker
Server rates like x2 don't seem to affect blood pack amount consumed
On official a 135 took 1097 blood packs with no sacrifices
I found the best spot to find them is in middle in a valley
My son and his mate just tamed a lvl 55......it took 137 blood bags.
When raising they don’t eat cooked meat.
Breeding.....once egg is dropped, it can not be picked up.
Not affected by 2x because the devs are dumb
Just now on small tribes I tamed a 145 m with 110 blood packs
Bloodstalker taming is broken right now. Approximately 20 blood bags for a 150. (PS4, 2/29/2020)
Could you some how use stimulants to drain your food along with cooked lamb chop or cooked prime meat to fill up your health? Then maybe use some type of crafted food recipe to tame one? Maybe use a mind whipe and pump all points into health? So solo player can skip using blood packs? Like so people can tester out
I just had the craziest idea. So could you tame one with cooked prime meat and stim berries? Keeping your food low with stim berries and health up by eating cooked prime meat and a combination of maybe a recipe food of some sort? Like so someone can try and let us know please. Some how cut out all the blood packs for solo players.
Carry some decent armour on you and try and narrow the chances of being killed
To tame a level 100 I took like 850 blood to packs (official rates) make sure to bring a couple sleeping bags and like 10 parachutes because sometimes he may drop you also I recommend bringing some sort of shotgun or something because the kapros can be a pain
With 250 health you can get about 10 or 11 blood packs at a time
