Not worth it. I shot 50 darts into it and still didn't knock out. It was level 50 so just build an AC and save resources

Use berries when taming will stop the torpor from dropping as fast after applying. Also try to go for lower levels the higher ones are a nightmare.

These things are dumb. Mate them to get an egg and turn it to kibble when needed to imprint.

Their Torpor drops crazy fast. Bring lots of narcotics.

I came across a lvl 16 about two days after it came out, and I used Lamp Chops, which REALLY HELPED. It took about an hour, sure, but it was well worth the tame. Use Shock Darts, and nothing else.

After knocking it out, I found counting 3-4 seconds between pumping 1 narcotic helps keep torpor rising steadily

For solo tame, use a quetz to take to a taming pen and only wonder away to do stuff as in collect prime meat or narcotics while torpor is refilling.

Fire tranq darts or arrows as fast as you can, or they'll shake off torpor and you'll end up killing them instead.

This thing must have narco abuse issues. On tame 8x a lvl 12 took about 40-80 narcotics while using prime.

These things are wildly slow. Just walk away from it while shooting tranqs and it will never catch up. Bring meat/fish meat or prime meat and a lot of narcotics or narcoberries.Torpor drains really fast so you need to keep an eye on them.

These guys’ Torpor drops like SONIC SPEED, so just kill jellyfish with your Mastercraft Sword and shove meat up its you-know-what

This thing doesn't make any sense. First you need a god dark quetzal to carry these motheryeeter. I mean cant you see how how small are these reptilehole? Probally a tapejara could carry these dipstick.

Yes. I spent years when I was younger watching the GamingBeaver. It’s even better that we have actual beavers in the game.

It’s easy to knock out and all, tranq arrows are great. It will get killed by piranhas if you let it, it doesn’t go on rafts well...
