This big guy is (in my opinion) one of the best utility mounts in the game. This is because when using hogs wrath whenever you attack a source of wood like a tree or driftwood its harvests charcoal. This has made making ammo for guns EXTREMELY helpful in my current save.

It's a standard knockout, yet you should be aware that higher levels are very strong.

I recommend to either bring a Pyromane or the best idea is to build a trap and lure it into the trap. As soon as Boaratos start firing, just get out of his fire attack radius and snipe it with darts from a distance.

Boaratos can easily kill you with its flame attack, so anything to extinguish yourself or avoid fire damage, is a good idea.

Very basic 3x3 1 height stone enclosure trap is enough to tame. Based on your server settings, bring a lot of narcotics as it seems torpor goes really quickly down, like Giga's does. If you let it attack multiple times before putting it into sleep, you can deplete a lot of his hunger and tame it quicker.

It's also a good idea to kill any nearby Boaratos you don't want to tame, as they are very aggressive and have really huge AoE range for fiery attack. It drops Beacon after killing it and it's being spawned on Therokis (the centered lava island on Astraeos map).

EASIEST TAMING OFFICIAL PVE:

4 metal foundations and 8 metal walls (double door frame) and ramp into one side. Bit like the early game traps. Throw a ln extinguisher grenade at it to put the flames out every time it does its jump and flames come out of its nose. Then use a longness rifle and shocking tranq darts to KO it. Then place a medical stand next to it. With 50 narcotics and it will tame in less then 10 kibble in minutes. EASY. Ive tamed 8 in under an hour. Structures dont take damage and medical stand feeds the narco in keeping it knocked out.

Drop them in a cage or trap them any other way, extinguisher grenade when they hogs wrath then shoot them with shocking tranquilizer darts, i never had to worry about them dying.

Do the grenade first when starting cause if you shoot them then switch to the grenade to extinguish them, their torpor is already back at 0 when you switch back and this was after a head shot dealing 2k torpor.
