Try to tame it on ps4 and you'll kill it.

These things are a taming nightmare.

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.

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

This can be picked with with an argy, only way I got mine out of the swamps alive once I tamed it cuz it’s health is very low.

I don't know who's in charge of the dododex stats but I had a 162 and with my servers settings it said it would only take 37 tranq darts. I used over 100 and I killed it before it got close to being knocked out.

warning; calculator is wrong. says for mine it should've only taken 17 darts to get it down and it took almost 90 so...also bring around 2k narcotics the torpor constantly drops

I first thought it was a baby spino, oops! Well I recommend KO them with darts as my primitive crossbow killed it.

Easier to get a fertilized egg from someone. I hatched two eggs today. Luckily I got a male and female.?

-2 points9 years oldReport

Easy to find just look where the water and land meets in the swamp that's where I find them the most

Best to use kibble to tame these! Otherwise it's a waste.

They wake up really fast. Have one tribemember sit with it constantly feeding it narcotics while you are out to gather prime Meat. They wake up within 2 minutes if Not fed narcotics

-2 points9 years oldReport

Be ready to drop narcotics on this air conditiong unit as soon he goes down, they wake up fast asf

-2 points9 years oldReport

Bring a lot of narcotics and never try tame a level 150 with raw meat like I did😞

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...

If you want a peaceful place to tame and not you’re on Ragnarok, just go to one of the islands on the bottom left corner of the map, they spawn in some of those.

NEVER FORGET you’ re taming a tiny giganotosaurus . Its torpor falls extremely fast . NEVER use narcoberries,always use bio toxins...Never try to tame lvl 29 or higher lvl dimetrodons.Because you can kill it before knocking out.

The number of tranq arrows with the crossbow is wrong 9 would have worked 10 killed it
