If you hit its tail it don’t register u hit it but it takes damage!
Easy way for meat!
The Brontosaurus is a behemoth of a dinosaur with a powerful tail 'tail sweep' attack that can smash all nearby enemies. This method is also one of the most efficient ways to gather berries and thatch, and the Brontosaurus' ability to carry large quantities of items make it even more useful for gathering. With its ability to carry a Platform Saddle, the Brontosaurus is often considered a must-have dinosaur for nomadic tribes looking for a mobile base.

The best thing about bronto is that it has small intervals of eating so you can tame it by putting mejoberries without any narcotics
:)
If there’s one near a cliff just get Tranq arrows and you can tame an easy bronto
(Tip: try to do it in a place that has a lot of bushes so you can pick berries well it’s knocked out and you can try to tame something else since the bronto will take a while to tame)
Man I kinda hate these guys. One of these guys killed my pteranodon that was real powerful and another almost killed my Sarco. But I can get why people like these guys they’re gigantic and they’re mostly friendly.
Pretty much just make a stone cage, similar to the giga pen, but without the bear trap. Bring a ton of arrows/darts. Even starters can tame this easily.
All you need is full hide armour your crossbow and 30 tranqs to knock out a level 1 found a 2 lvl 40 tranqs
I’m so impatient about unlocking the platform saddle.
My bronto took three hours to tame
Go to a high ledge and it should be simple. Use a trike to get carrots as it isn't too difficult or just use mejos.
For me on day 15 of my solo server I tamed one. I’d say these are early game tames but ofc I didn’t have the platform saddle. Basically I got a pteranodon and a ton of tranq arrows. (I’m on Pc btw) I flew just out of the attack range and shot the bronto (I waited 5…
For me on day 15 of my solo server I tamed one. I’d say these are early game tames but ofc I didn’t have the platform saddle. Basically I got a pteranodon and a ton of tranq arrows. (I’m on Pc btw) I flew just out of the attack range and shot the bronto (I waited 5 seconds between shots). Eventually he passed out. What I ended up doing is heavily scouting around for raptors, dilos, etc. I only used I think 5 narco berries. You can probably use less.
Only can use behemoth doors!
Shoot it with tranqs but don’t tame a bronto near another bronto it’s terrifying when there multiple angry sauropods
It didn’t take 500 berries don’t waste your time picking berries just get 250
Place a stone foundation, then pile up two doorframes on each side, go inside and shoot at the bronto with tranqs :)
Do not attack a bronto near your base, it will cause massive damage to your entire base and kill all your low level dinos before you can take it out.
A tip make a stone foundation and 3 stone walls and 5 stone door Frames. Place the foundation make a way to go in then place stone wall now place a door Frame on top on every stone wall brontosaurus can't damage stone. Now just do inside and start shooting with trank…

Now just do inside and start shooting with trank arrows. Easy tame I take a lvl 290 with this method.
If you’re taming a max level one, you have so much time. Like SEVEN HOURS
To tame you want about 10-20 stacks of 100 berries and 200 narco to get those get a trike( triceratops) those are great for harvesting. Here are a few steps

To tame you want about 10-20 stacks of 100 berries and 200 narco to get those get a trike( triceratops) those are great for harvesting. Here are a few steps
1. Get trank arrows and a bow. Use a bow because you won’t need many arrows if it is less than lvl11 plus an crossbow takes to long to reload
2. Shoot is a ton it will pass out don’t worry
3. Fill it with berries
4. Get a saddle
Have a HUGE HERO THAN IS HUGE
if this was helpful please up, I used this method for 2 brontosaurus and I haven’t lost a single one.

So, don’t try to run into them as a lvl 20 with knockout arrows and a bow like I did, the way it chewed me was terryfiying

I just tamed my first one earlier today that was right by my base and it took less then a minute (Thank the Dino gods) In summary for people who want a quick taming though:
1. Get it on low health so it’s food goes down, probably make some dangerous Dino chase you and accidentally hit it and fight it (Mine fought something before I hit it with a bunch of tranq arrows so it only took about a minute or two to tame)
2. Get as many arrows as you need plus some extra just in case and start shooting it! (I died doing this but as I said it was next to my base so no problem)
3. You’ll want to put as many berries in as possible, you should probably stock up before you tame it (Good thing about having Parasaurs and trikes before hand is they can get heap of berries quickly)
4. Just wait and bam you got your self a nice bro to ready to defend your base!
Paired with a desmodus you’ll get a ton of narcotics u should get at least 10 mortar and pestle mid game or a chemistry bench.
