Encountering Tips

How do I kill a glowtail? glowtail battling strategies in ARK: Survival Evolved.
In gen 2 these are pretty easy to find in the Rockwell area, but to find one that has no aggressive creatures around it is the hard part.
They can be found in artifact caves. Watch out for bad things.
48 Lat, 27 Lon are the coordinates for an entrance of a cave they spawn in.
There cute that’s all I have to say
Every one says there only in the railway caves,but in reality they can be found across the blue zone. The problem is they often get killed, or they are in places you cannot reach since they can cling to walls like the megalania. Of course the railway cave is the most recommended place to tame one becaue that cave is actually safer than the blue zone. Also for some reason, despite having the narcotic mushroom being their favorite, they can knock themselves out if you put it in their inventory when tamed, and while I found have seen some having from ceilings of the railway cave, they don't appear to climb anymore when you tame them. Otherwise their an interesting light pet. By the way, there's almost always a carnotaurus inside the railway cave, and while I was able to kill it the first time, it respawed on my way out, and chased me until I got to the point where you have to crawl. By the way, it's not worth bringing a mount to the railway cave. You need a cryopod to bring anything that won't sit on your shoulder, and many of the passage ways are too small, plus this cave forces you to use the climbing pick or a grappling hook. There's a few scorpions, raptors, and ravagers, and don't fall into any pits, because there's a beefy crab down there. Also you can cheese your way through by getting creatures to walk off ledges. I highly recommend plant species z fruit and bolas.
The most adorable little bastards this side of The Overlook. Eat Ascerbic shrooms to tame, and eat meat after taming.
My clan found 5 of these last night in Valguero's aberration radiation zone.
They are on the lost island map. In the caves.
It is found in artifact caves but be careful I died like seven times trying to find one and I named him Sparky
Can be found in caves. There is a cave near the portal spawn
Go to the portal and there will be a lake go on the island then look around for a cave next to it it will be there ;)
I hope im not being obivious but, from what i have seen, these are incredibly rare
Glowtails aren’t rare, it’s just hard to actually see them, look for random glowing spots around the cave to find them quicker
Throw down some sleeping bags in the cave and catch a low level anything and us them as a vault for glow sticks and climbing pick,then c carrying nothing run through and have all the bad things chase you and the glowtail will stay there, then come back after revive and tame yourself glowtail
BABYS EAT MEAT dont let it die in front of u because the wiki say herbivore
to tame one u find it in the red zone or a cave it’s best food is the plant a seed but it also works well with ascerbic mushrooms
This is so cute and cool :)
To help you get through the cave listed above just bring a metal shield climbing picks chitin armor a sword and a cross bow to get through the first clearing just climb over all of the dinos using the climbing pick then lead them off of the cliff if you have to come face to face with anything just cut it down with the sword
If you want to tame one of these glow tails I would tame them on gen 2 I’m Rockwell garden there are loads of them
Bring a drake you may need to cryo it a few times but youl come out with some cut little basterds
