Tips & Strategies
I take my Rex and kill diplo and paracers along rivers and keep the prime in the Rex's inventory, when I find one I transfer meat knock it out and continue to tame even if others are attacking, then a couple seconds later BOOM you got a compy
More Compy Taming & KO Tips
Up of u think it is too expensive too tame
Compys are more trouble than they are worth, but we all tame them, so here’s a guide to help you out.
1. Get some prime meat, it is already max effectiveness so having mutton doesn’t matter. In asa babies drop prime and are a great source because they drop a LOT
2. I recommend tranq arrows, because fists will likely kill it, and it will bite you, and the 1 to 3 ish tranqs you’ll need aren’t expensive
3. Knock it out and feed it, it is a very quick tame so just wait for it to tame, and you shouldn’t need narcotics because it tames so fast. You can bola it if it is too hard to hit, just wait for it to walk up to you and stare so you can hit it while it’s motionless
Happy taming!
P.S. I am making an in depth taming guide for every creature in ark, so make sure to check my other tips. They all follow this format with Happy taming! at the end. Please raise it to the sky if it is helpful so it can help others
Guys they only take with mutton, prime fish or reg prime
They die from starvation REALLY FAST, like in a couple of minutes if low level, so rember to put some meat in it's inventory After taming It, i learned the hard wayಥ‿ಥ
1 up=1 pray for reginald
Pick the compy you want and kill the rest. Otherwise they will turn on your tame compy and kill it. No one leaves the compy tribe and lives.
WHY do you need prime meat!!! But they are pretty cute

When you leave your giga on passive and one of these comes into your base while you sleep. Don’t know how long it was there but it did kill it
How2Tame #7: Compy
So, if you think Compies are full of themselves then I, Zeta, agree with you. They need only prime meat and expensive mutton and they force themselves to wake up because they want to prove themselves a million times over. Now, it's time How2Tame teaches you how to teach THESE things some manners. Note: This was jumped to because I am doing these in the order they appear in the wild. You may do my next entries before this, or skip this altogether.
1. Gather Raw Prime Meat or Raw Prime Fish Meat. Raw Prime Fish Meat is the best because all you must do is eliminate a few salmon. They are simple fishes and do not have much health. Then craft around 10 Narcotic or so.
2. Sight a Compy. Punch it a few times and it will fall unconscious. Feed it your raw prime (fish) meat.
3. If the torpor gets too low, you should have it consume your Narcotic, but only as much as it needs. Please do not waste, Narcotic is valuable.
4. Eventually you will have tamed a Compy. Name it and PLEASE make sure that you feed it ONLY AS MUCH AS IT NEEDS! COMPIES ARE THE CREATURE THAT NEEDS RESOURCE CONSERVATION THE MOST
Alright, I hope that helped. Apologies if the Narcotic estimate was off, I have not tamed one before and do not care to myself, as my Tek Parasaurs and Fast Phiomias are enough for me right now. Goodbye, and you may see my episodes below.
