Tips & Strategies

Basically, to tame a Hesperornis, you have to kill Coelacanth and drag their corpses in front of it, bigger ones seem to give more Taming Process(further testing needed). Once you tamed it, drag more fish corpses to it and let it eat, after a certain amount of fish, it will then lay wether a golden egg or a hesperornis egg. The hesperornis egg can be cooked into oil, the golden egg, if eaten, gives your dinos 500% experience for I think 10 minutes, but will give yourself only 10%. The golden egg is also used to cook kentro kibble which is needed to kibble tame the epic yutyrannus.

Ark mobile revamp tip
Kill salmon 0.7x size or below don't even try the bigger ones it'll block your view that will make it harder, now drag the fish go near this biatch then click the dino paw print where the whistle button is also located click "feed fish", sometimes it'll show release instead so be patient Xaxa
A pure nightmare to tame;
You have to get thousands and thousands of fishes,
But you can't use anything to fish them (except another hesperonis...)
Because they will eat the fishes, before give you the meat;
So you need to go fishing, go walking to the trapped bird, and doing so like billions of times, and everything times, you'd waste like 5minutes, because it refuses to eat
Then, you have to travel hundreds miles, simply because you got all the fishes in the near location, to get like 30% of taming effectiveness...
Use an itchthyornis to gather fish for it. The buff increases efficiency.
They deal hundred millions of damages to fish... but only does 1 damage to other creatures
ok
Donβt be stupid like me. I was dropping fish after fish in front of it and was wondering why thereβs no taming bar. Didnβt realise you have to passively feed it not just drop a fish in front of it.
The most frustrating thing about taming these guys is not only do they take a lot of fish but the same button to feed them is the same button to drop the fish(i donβt know if itβs different in pc or ps4)and itβs constantly swinging around your face making it annoying because youβre constantly dropping it. Either make it so the controls to feed them are different then dropping it or make ur so itβs not constantly in ur face.
Taming guide #4: Hesperornis and Otter
1 They have a weird taming metodo,Where you Need to trasport a fish to them and feed them
2 The best Place to tame Hesperornis and Otter Is that River between Redwood and Swamp,since It Is full of Salmons wich work the best ( Here Hesperornis are common while the Otter Is rare like in any other Place)
3 Kill salmon and feed them with the body
4 Enjoy a duck/a cute ball of fur π¦π¦¦
Feeding them sabertooth salmon seems to work the best.
Tame to this kill fish and drag there body to it and once tamed if you feed them more dead fish corpses it will build up and lay a golden egg which is used as a buff to certain dinos or oil or a player buff
