Do not try to knock out these guys there a passive tame so in other words put berrys in your last slot I your hot bar and keep your distance and leave about 2-3 minutia beer seen each visit to it
If you want to tame one of these just crouch and shove them berries in its a$s. Yes that's all you need to do. Thats my first post so may i please get some ups ?
Male and female are look the same so always check before taming dont be like me .. rip 1hours tamed 3 high lvl male just to look at each other inside a romantic small room
I mostly find them in the redwood biome.
Use Mejos (as usual) just crouch and slowly walk toward and feed but DO NOT TOUCH and always crouch just be careful
Was with my direwolf and I got jumped by about 5 terror birds, this dude came up from nowhere and knocked the sh*t out of those terror birds, but when I looked back, he was gone. He saved my and my tame's life, RIP Sasquatch you handsome devil.
I’m the guy who lost shiela, shall we start a trend, #PrayForShiela so we can pray for my lovely ape that I unfortunately lost ages ago? It would be appreciated
Like Basilos, there is a long time between the first and second passive feeds. Its food has to drop over 1000 before the second feed prompt comes up (Dex timer isn't always reliable).
Make sure to put shoulder animal on passive so if it agro your animal doesn’t restart the taming process by hitting it. I had it at 99% then it agro so I flew out of range and came back and when I went to feed last berry my otter was still pissed off and hit it. 99% to 0 and I’m not lying it was literally 99. FAAAAAHH
their range means as long as you crouch to feed them they will never aggro i have try it and itworks no guillie needed
Tickle the nipple with berries
Look in the redwood biome that's were i found one
Use full ghillie armour n these things barely notice ya there which makes em much easier to tame
Build. Around. It.
My Gigantopithecus luv 150 was at 99.9% tamed. Terror bird charged in and made it be at 0%. I’m pissed.
I found that knocking it out the build a wall of window frames round it is an easy way to tame it as it can't wander off.
