I got attacked by one of these guys and it stole my narcotics!!! 45 of them gone, really guys is that necessary?!!!!
I COULDNT FIND A SINGLE ONE OF THESE GUYS. AM I TOO UNLUCKY
Just tamed one a lv20 took 1 tranq dart while it landed. Fed it fish meat an some prime fish. Took about 20mins
How to tame an Ichthyornis!
1. Grab a bola, (unlocked lvl 8), and get its attention so it attacks you.
2. When it comes to dive for you, bola it.
3. Grab your bow (unlocked lvl 10), and tranq arrows (unlocked lvl 21) and shoot it 2-4 times.
4. After its knocked out, put fish meat in the inventory. It will take a couple minutes to be tamed, so you might have to hit it again with a tranq arrow when the torpidity is low. (Make sure not to kill it!)
It will gather a lot of fish meat. I mean a LOT of fish meat!
When you knock it out it will be set on hunt. So don't freak out when it's missing right after you tamed it because it's probably hunting things for you.
Easy way.
1) bola it
2) place cage over it
3) build 1x1 box with at least 1 window around cage
4) remove cage
5) tranq bird through window
This Bird is spawn killing me it's flying around my home
When using find some fish
Place your bird on the ground
Set hunt and retrieve
Set aggressive
Wait
Use hatchet and you'll get PFM from the fish it brings back once you're done getting fish set neutral and pick up your bird.
They can pick up dodos trust me I know
First off, 1 tranq arrow will knock out a low lvl one. You don't need a bola. Second, knock it out near Damon tooth samon, as you can gather prime fish with a sickle.
It is actually a 89% death for crossbow and 78% chance for a bow.
You can tame it with bow and fish, is useful to get fish when you are starting off.
I Ike this bird because it can get me prime meat easliy
I'm waiting for it to get the fish out of the water first since its slower and easier to bola it. Not sure if they land so they can rest.
For the people who play on ark mobile these things are extremely difficult and are very hard to find in ark mobile I have traveled to almost every beach and I have never seen one the chances of finding one increases in the dungeon tho but I don’t recommend putting your hopes up if you want to tame this thing
Used a rare flower to lure it to a safe spot on shore. Threw a couple bolas then shot it with a tranq dart in the face, it was down instantly. EZ tame with fish or regular kibble, but will need some narcotics or narcoberries for higher levels. Use it to get good fish to tame otters and hesperonis with.
The way I tame mine was I had bolas in my hotbar and about 3 bolas just in cause. After I knocked it I put raw/fresh fish meat on it. Then I went out to the ocean and I killed some sharks with my thyla and hachet the sharks to get raw/fresh prime fish meat.( I was on Valguero and I was playing Primivite+.
When I set out to tame one of these, I bring a storage or make one near the location of the bird, I put all my valuables that are on me & my flyer into storage(including the kibble) until it's knocked out. To avoid being robbed & having my things destroyed.
Will eat fish meat and prim fish meat. Will not eat any type of raw meat
