These guys are easy to tame with a soothing balm. Im a beginner and just started a new game and im in the early 20's of the game. I had completed a pursuit before for killing piranhas, and as a reward i got a sotting balm. I was going to use it to tame a high level raptor, but it didnt work out. But since i heard that these beavers do dams, i wanted to tame one. I went after a 110 level female, and it took about 10 tranqs in the head. I boloed it and shot it in the head. I gave it the soothing balm and then gave it about 30 rockarrots at most. With the soothing balm, i suggest about at least 50 Narcotics. I used about 30, but if it is higher level, i recommend 50 narcotics. Just stay to guard your beaver and itll be fine if you keep its torpor levels up. I honestly dont know how many narcotics it takes to do without soothing balm but i hope this helped! Also, the coordinates of a safe place to find beavers is Lat:n98, Lon: 58.

Build a hut and put a bed in it near where these guys spawn and make dams for loads of cementing paste. They are also good and gathering wood before you can get a mammoth, but be warned they hit hard and make sure you have narcotics or lots of narco berries or they won't stay asleep for long.

If you want to get the resources from the dams these guys build then what I usually do is get one of my bigger dinos (Bronto or Diplo) bc they can carry a lot and I go rly close to the dam with my dino and open the dam to gey the resources and quickly get on my dino and run back to my bace, where I have a wall of spikes to keep bad dinos away , and now you have more resources, lost no health and an other use for your big dinos. Op if this helped:)

This is just a suggestion when taming these guys, the higher the lvl the wood you can carry is outstanding, I have a lvl 200 something an admin gave me. (I play on unofficial servers) named gibby, I kept him until the server sadly closed (or I think it did) they can carry A MASSIVE amount of wood, on the server I play on now, I have a beaver, can u guess what I named him? Of course I named him gibby :D I wear swat gear (witch is VERY heavy as well as my fav primary weapons ALSO heavy) and even with all of that, I can come back with 1000 wood np, so if your in dire need of wood, this dude is your friend to consider. I hope this helped

This and the Beelzebufo are the most useful and versatile dinos someone can tame, especially when you're not playing on a public server where you have to worry about other taming things to fend off other players. Besides the awesome wood gathering, the Casteroides also has decent stats across the board, is a great underwater mount, and it's saddle functions as a smithy!
