Tranq darts are ideal, though tranq arrows work fine as well as long as the creature is at full health. It's relatively slow, so you can score some easy shots on foot, though it's adviseable that you aim for the head and nowhere else. They'll take less torpor when shot anywhere else.

Also, bring a good amount of narcotics or biotoxins to keep their torpor up until it's all tamed up.

I was flying my pteranodon, and i saw a lvl 27 rex pick on one of these lil cuties. He curled up into a ball, and took no damage, so combined with its mining capabilities, this lil guy is perfect for the mountains, as they have incredible defense, and mining capabilities.

Use tranq arrows if u don’t have darts then just whack with a wooden club when it’s curled up in a ball

You can find them in the redwoods, by obsidian mountain, and north of the beaver spawn near hunter cave. I highly advise using an Argentavis so you can just pick it up and knock it out in a safer spot.

A tame this thing then take it down to the stonehenge and enable wondering to get a crap-ton of stone.

Tranq arrows and I used Bio Toxin, I still suggest keep on you about 50, and I used crops, the one I tamed preferred corn over potatoes, carrots and etc

Instead of shooting in the face with tranq arrows, go for the tail. Will take practice or if you managed to lure into a trap of yours it will swing its tail. If on foot just walk backwards and close enough to trigger a swing at you to get shots to the tail. In a trap just time it when it swings. Avoids it from taking too much damage from heatshots and balling up.

Pair with beaver or thorny dragon I prefer thorny dragon because of better stats and damage speed ext. doe can get stone thatch dragon can get wood stone base I’m seconds hope this helps please 🆙

I have two methods of knoking it out

If you are a solo you need trank darts

If you have a friend and a argy one of you picks it up while the other shots it in the stomach

tranq arrow with a crossbow or a tranq bullet with a gun but be careful cuz they can curl up in a ball and shield your attacks so make sure to do it fast.

Very easy to KO, just walk backwards while firing at its head with a tranq weapon. Don’t shoot when they ball up or else you will waste ammo (even if you hit its head while its balled up it won’t give torpor)

The Regular Kibble restores 85 entities of the hunger not 50

I once knocked one out with a sling shot in the red woods

Press the jump button while rolling on mobile to make a continuous roll which means you can’t turn but you move faster

If you deal too much damage to them while knocking them out and they turn into a ball, you can use a yutyrannus to fear roar them and they will run away, forgetting they’re supposed to stay in the ball, and you can continue knocking them out without the resistance.

If your going to tame this guy then you would like something to move to a passive area as if it is in the redwoods, it is very scary when a Rex just spawns right next to you and kills you and the doedicurus!!!!

If useful to you, I just found out these guys are pretty quick swimmers. Check it out, it blew my mind.

Just me or if it’s on lowest follow distance it’s adorable when it chases you about

Man this is must need for stone gatherings it also make a good traveling dino since i just know he have a rolling skill 😂 im having fun rolling down a mountain and cliff they can be quite fast in water too

Do not use bolas because they are immune to them so just tranq it and give it crops mostly carrots or meoberries if you dont have any crops.
