Taming & KO Tips
How do I tame a fjordhawk? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a fjordhawk.
Feed Fjordhawks a ovis because they are one of the best ways to tame them
2nd tip! It can locate injured targets
Phiomias provide 4-6x more taming % than a bronto does!
I recommend using 6 sheep

You kill it by using weapons on it. First tip!
Once a fjordhawk starts feeding, a net gun will cause loss of taming.
Wyvern fire is a good way to kill things and still have them count for fjordhawk taming even though you’re on a mount! Make sure to use your sanguine elixir too.
If your server lets you, try placing a wooden cage over one of these guys when it lands to eat, and then dragging bodies to it and holding them up against the bars- that’s how I got my first.
Built a large kill room and managed to get a hawk stuck in it and then brought her 20 parasaurs and phiomias I had managed to tame. Worked pretty well.
Fjordhawks are somewhat a little hard to tame according to me. You have to kill things for the progress bar to get up higher. You cannot be on a mount while completing this process.
Eat Alpha is useless. Alpha or Normal Raptor give same food
Kill any animal near the one you want then when he's done eating it put a tent over him go in side throw down a sheep at a time killing it and presto you have a tame
These guys are a passive tame (a pain in the ass too). It’ll follow you around, and you have to go on a killing spree. Kill any dinos you find and let the hawk harvest it. Keep doing this until the tame is finished.
I was so close to being done before the tame progress was back to zero.
If you are on another animal while it's eating it won't count toward its taming meter. Also make sure you get a good distance from it before you start killing something else cause if anything hits it its meter goes back down to 0
Since Rock Golems have been patched, best method is the tame/Breed Ovis and level them as much as you can into health. Higher the level the better.
This thing bouta bring me back my spoiled and Meiji berries and leave my tranqs behind ngl
Keep the ones you want to tame alive and kill others because it will take you too much time to tame the one you want because others are eating corpses.
So I tried using the tamed Ovis trick, but for some reason even after killing my “sacrificial lamb”, none of the Fjordhawks would go for it. Though through a test, they went for the wild ones instead. Any thoughts? (This is on Xbox console btw).
Use a high level Ovis. Mine took 3-4 bites and boom insta tamed. And it didn’t drop that much in taming effectiveness
The low levels are easy but you should kill the levels you don't want because the can steal your Dino you killed for the on you wanted
They take your death bag if you die. I mean the wild ones when I say that. Wear stuff to keep you good from the cold, bring food, and try not to die.
