Tips & Strategies

This thing is horrifyingly cool, although you have to pay 5 dollars or euros or whatever to have it. You tame it by killing one and taking the altar in its inventory, and it’s level varies from whatever level you kill. I recommend going near your base because when you place the altar it will ask for a random assortment of apex drops. Keep in mind It has to be night for it to work. If you don’t have what it’s asking for and it’s timer runs down, it will spawn the alpha creature that drops what it’s asking for. After you give it the apex drop it will spawn and you have to kill it within three minutes. If you don’t kill it then it will lose taming effectiveness. Do this a few times and you will have a dreadmare/stallion!(depending on if it is a male or female)
They only can spawn at night but the gene scanner can show you where it will spawn when it turns night to make it easy bring a shotgun and wyv to kill it get the altar and place it but you will need tribute items to summon it and kill it over and over to tame it and you only have 5 minutes to get whatever it needs
Kil it over and over seriously it just keeps coming back till tamed
It’s weird that you have to kill this thing a bunch of times to tame it
Always gather your tributes first before taking. Stock pile because high levels take multiples.
If you are looking for the vertebrae on scorched, take a Thylo and kill a titan. They drop them. If it’s not on your thylo, you must collect the bag.
Keep in mind, if a tribute is able to be gotten on the map it can ask for it. I tames a 300 on scorched and it wanted alpha deathworm tribute, not once but 2 times. Don’t use the altar at your base because your map difficulty and the level are f the Dreadmare directly impacts the level of the missing tribute creature that is spawned in.
One last note, think phoenix trap when using the altar. 1 foundation double door frames 4 high each side with 3 hatch frames starting at the top coming down. This will keep it from flying everywhere making it harder to hit.
Kill them and take altars, then use altars to summon the Dreadmare
In easy words, kill a Dreadmare, usually spawns around sunset/night. Get the altar from its inventory and place it. ONLY USABLE DURING THE NIGHT!! One the altar is placed, make sure that you have the five dollar fantastic animals pack for it. The altar will ask for any kind of item, including giga hearts, carno arms, Megalania toxin, and similar items to that. Once you give the item, it will spawn the dreadmare again. Kill it, and proceed to give it the next item and continue that process until it is fully tamed. There is a timer, however, and if you do not obtain the item within that time period, the animal that is requesting for along with the dreadmare, will spawn. For example, if it is asking for a giga heart, it will spawn a giga along with the dreadmare. Whatever level dreadmare you were attempting to get, is the level of animal that will spawn. For more information, you have to kill the dreadmare between three minutes after it spawns, and same goes with the animal if you do not get the item the altar is requesting. After you get it, there are multiple abilities in which you have along with gliding like a griffin, a black hole in which pretty much cryopods and animal and it’s inventory, and multiple long-distance attacks. It is an extremely good PVP animal and I would suggest it fully. For more tips, just ask.

Use a gen scanner to track them down
CANT WE JUST KNOCK OUT TAME THIS
Use gene scanner to find dreadmares, kill grab altar out body if not already collected place down where you want to fight only works at night have all the tributes given it which one it wants have a giga or carcha next to it as soon as it spawns bite an kill then do the same over and over till you tame it
Hard to tame I’m pretty sure u gotta
Kill the right level u want to tame
Take the alter
Place it and offer offerings
Kill it when it spawns
Eventually it will tame
IT CAN BE SEEN AT NIGHT
YOU TAME IT BY KILLING IT A FEW TIMES
Find one with gene scanner.
Defeat it once.
Get the altar from its corpse.
Place altar in good place away from base but near it.
Use giga and place it over the altar.
It will ask for any of the tributes for the center or scorched.
You can miss 3 tributes, the altar will break on the fourth missed tribute.
Kill the Dreadmare after every successful tribute.
If you miss a tribute you must fight the missed tribute animal along with the Dreadmare.
If you fail to defeat the missed tribute animal it will result it efficiency loss.
Make sure you carry an alpha raptor claw on official cause if you can’t tame right away you will need the claw to summon it again
Spawn command : cheat sdf darkpegasus 0 150 1 (wild)
The higher the level is (e.g. max 150) he needs higher items like Giga Heart, Alpha Mosa Tooth etc. 3x you can wait the 5min and he will spawn the mentioned animal (except water animals). The 4th time, the altar will break and the Deadmare will probably be gone.
1. Place altar
2. Build trap around altar
3. Place turrets around trap
4. Summon the dreadmare at night with tribute
5. Turrets kill the dreadmare and dinos that are spawned if tribute are missed
6. Repeat step 4 & 5 until taming is complete
Good luck with alpha rex tooth.
Also dont let your guard down if you dont have the tributes, dinos it spawns are not pushovers
