ARK: Survival Evolved & Ascended Companion
Tips & Strategies

Found a level 135, tranqed it with narcotic arrows. Killed it. Did about a dozen more the same way. Killed all of them. Had a 298 power recurve. Finally switched to tranq darts. Got my tame. Tranq arrows glitch or too powerful of a bow. Found a level 90 dire bear. Used tranq darts then ran out and used the same bow with traq arrows to finish it off. Actually almost finished it off. Had only 24 health points keeping it alive. If I would have farted, it would have killed my bear. But now its a level 152 and takes out 3 packs of allosaurus, alpha raptors, and uses T Rex's for chew toys.
More Gallimimus Taming & KO Tips
Gallimimuses can be picked up with argies at least on mobile.
Bolas DO WORK on MOBILE. just tested it out
Taming these guys is a pain, since they stay asleep for 10 secs. But the idea to keep these guys asleep is by bringing bio toxin. Since it has a lot of torpor when consumed,. But what sucks about biotoxin is that it spoils.
How to tame: Gallimimus. (This is for mobile players only!)
You will need: Argy with saddle, Dimetrodon kibble, Bola, 35 Narcotic, 20 mejoberries and 5 Tranq darts and a longneck rifle.
Step 1: Find a Gallimimus in the swamp.
Step 2: Pick up the Gallimimus with your argy, and carry it back to the island that your base is on.
Step 3: Land your argy, and put the bola in your hot bar.
Step 4: Bola the Gallimimus.
Step 5: Make sure your longneck was in your hot bar, and shoot until unconsious.
Step 6: Give it the Dimetrodon kibble, narcotics and mejoberries.
Step 7: Feed it narcotic whenever you feel it needs it.
Step 8: Once it's tamed, carry it to your base.
Step 9: Target it when you get "Tame: Gallimimus", and get the rewards.
You can also complete "Hunt: Raptor" and get a Gallimimus saddle.

NEVER LEAVE THIS BUGGER ALONE FOR 2 SECONDS, THEY WAKE UP FAST IVE FAILED MANY TIMES BECAUSE OF THIS
Drop in a taming pen if possible. Darts work best so you don't kill it. Wakes up fast so keep a close eye on it.
Easy tame just use tranq arrows. Oh wait why he dead with one shot....
DO Not I repeat NEVER take a Gallimimus egg if you are low level on foot....
alright so uh narcotics are useful but bio toxin is better.
from what i’ve seen:
Bio Toxin - 80 Torpor + Can be fed to creatures constantly
Narcotic - 40 Torpor + Can be fed to creatures
constantly
Narcoberries - 7.5 Torpor + Can be fed to herbivores constantly, but not carnivores
hope this is helpful
Use a bola to keep it in one place, and depending on the level, build a small box around it with fence foundations. Once it is running, you will never catch it.
