Tips & Strategies
I just put in a error report to Dododex for taming a 150 because on IOS it says on single times it only needs 5 Beers, but I tamed one at 7am Friday 11, 2025 and it took me 13 beers, so please pack more beers, and yes I play on official asa
More Deinotherium Taming & KO Tips
This is minimum level 85 to tame.
Beer in your passive tame spot.
Approach and hold still when it turns to face you, after three animations you can walk up between it's front legs, it will take the beer..
Ear wiggle, good
Trunk swing, good
Head shake, good
Foot stomp, RUN
It helps to have some stone gates to run through to slow it down
IMPORTANT NOTES FOR TAMING:
Each facial animation has a designated amount that increases the probability that the deino accepts the beer.
Trunk shake: 50%
Ear flapping: 35%
Head shake: 15%
All thats left is to calculate and approach the deino when the amount reaches 100 or over.
DO NOT APPROACH
If it does either of these animations
1. Ears folded back
2. Trunk rolls up to one side
Thats it.
(Taken from ark.gg webpage and a couple of youtubers)
1. Put Beer in your last slot
2. Separate the one you wanna tame from the others (or kill them)
3. Leave render to reset the behaver, come back to about 50m and park your mount
4. Walk to it till it starts sniffing and walk to you, it will stop in a certain distance and start the behavior for the tame process
5. You wait standing still till it do ALL the animations:
- Shake the head
- Waving the elephant's trunk/nose
- Wiggle your ears
And just then!!
6. Walk right under his head and it will take by itself the Beer from you
!!! When it rises the foot, when you come to it. Run to your tame!!! And do it fast because it is faster then a Rex!!!
We TAMED A 135 F and it took 31:09 min from the first Beer it took. Timer is def off.
YOU HAVE TO BE LEVEL 95 TO TAME IF, NOT HE WILL ATTACK!
For a beer to be accepted the deino must do all 3 animations:
Ear wiggle
Head swing
Trunk swing
CAUTION: Do not attempt to tame if deino has ears pinned straight back or trunk off to the right
You have to be level 95 to tame it (reason) it has to respect you
If you're taming a Dinotherium and it's ears or trunk are pulled back between animations, you cannot feed it.
However!
If you leave the area just enough for it to return to normal air sniffing mode, you can reapproach immediately and try again. Same with each feed, once it takes the beer, just run ~75m away and go straight back to keep going.
Keep at it! You can do it!
Follow the steps, everybody else is saying, but keep in mind One thing they are not saying is that you need to be a level. 95, before you can tame this animal.
