ARK: Survival Evolved & Ascended Companion
Tips & Strategies
Knocking one out is easy. Since they computer right at you and arnt the fasted creature on the ark all you have to do is use a bow and walk backwards shooting it in the face with tranq arrows. Once knocked out it can only be tamed with prime meat Fish/Regular. But cautious prime meat spoils quickly so do your best to starve tame and stockpile prime during the tame to take advantage of a longer spoil timer.
More Compy Taming & KO Tips
Easy tame!
Things to note before taming:
-usually are in packs of 3, so bring at least 5 bolas
-pretty slow while chasing you
-have extremely high torpor, so bring 5 or so narcotics
Here’s how to tame:
Use your flyer to locate a pack. Usually they have packs of three. Now, land a bit far from them but close enough so they aggro you. Now’s your chance! Quickly bola them all! Now, choose one to tame. Use tranq darts preferably so it’s quick. After yours is KO, use anything varying from arrows to a pickaxe to kill the others. (You could knock them all out, but you would be bouncing from computer to computer distributing narcotics) Calmly feed narcotics to the chosen computer, and you got a nice pet!
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.
