Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a bloodstalker? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a bloodstalker.
I donó if this is possible because I haven’t tried it yet but if you bring a frog it will eat all the bugs
But gring a cryopod because if you have a stalker saddle then you can gooooooo YeEeEeEeT
You need 70 to 100 blood packs. Head to the bog area on gen 1. Find them on a tree with a spy glass they will pull you in and start eating the blood packs.
When dodex says 440 blood bags, it's literally that amount.
Be aware that to increase effectiveness you must feed them tames like moschops or parasaurs
It goes up 10% per tame
Taming them need More bloodpacks now .. i times one Lvl 100 With 310 bloodpacks on x3
If you have high enough health, you can tame one from that alone
If you dont have enough bloodbags, they will feed on your health. Make it grab you, have enough bloodbags in your inventory. :3
When you are taming BLOODSTALKER WATCH OUT CUZ BUGS WILL KILL YOUR BLOODSTALKER +YOU
Near the left part of bog there is a flat rock in a tree and on the bottom, usually about 2-3 bloodstalkers
Hate endlessly dying while making blood bags? Use medbrews! Each blood bag takes 25HP and meds restore 40HP over a couple seconds. With a 300HP character, you can craft 10-12 bags then use 9-12 medbrews, keep crafting while healing and repeat when near full HP. I use bronto to gather tint/narco berries and spoiled meat. Waaaay less frustrating than seeing HLN-A spawn me in every minute.
I think they changed the blood bags for 145 spiders it ate 200 and didn’t tame
Definitely bring more than the stated blood packs. I would say 120-130 to be safe as a 145 took 105 packs from me and started taking my own blood before taming
Don’t wear glider suit when it tries to pull you in because it’s bugged. You can wear it after it latches on to you though.
When finding them bring extra blood bags I accidentally tamed 3 cause I had enough and I kept getting kidnapped I like these fellows BTW a common myth is that you need the blood packs in your slots no your inventory will do fine
It’s a passive game. Use the blood extraction tool to get blood bags. Lots of them. Make sure to have healing vials. Get webbed and pulled in with the blood bags in the passive taming slot at the end of your bar on the right. Keep putting more in as he/she drinks them. I needed 400 ish for a 95
It will take a long to to get the blood packs, and bring around 1k.
Bring parachutes just in case u need to get away from it
I had 700 blood packs and the taming only got to like 50 % the amount of blood u need to tame one of these is honestly insane wildcard should really change this tbh
On private servers with flyers enabled you can grab with a wyvern and drop them in a box with doorways and just toss in your sacrifices to let BS grab.
I have a lvl 267 bloodstalker. It took 150 blood packs. I know they eat alot more. It only wanted 150 blood packs.
