How do I tame a ichthyornis? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a ichthyornis.
The egg incubation time and time spent as baby are wrong. Its less than 4 hours as a baby and less than 2 hours for incubation.
Wait for it to land a level 45 took one traq dart and 4 kibble
I tamed a 90 n 10 using a dickwads behemoth gated pen, aggro them inside a behe gated base n they'll fly away into the gate to be bola or even btr, they'll get tired n land
Use a grappling hook to grab it while over land then use your darts
Bring extras and inventory decoys. These little shits are thieves and unlike pegos you don't get it back.
Bola it and tranquility it down as soon as possible. Best to bring nothing but kibble or meat, bolas, tranqs/weapon, and a lot of narcotics.
Sometimes walks on Land. Pain in the ass when in steal Mode. Steals everything and eats it. Even steals weapons but Drops them away from you. Hard to Hit with any weapons or Dino. Beste weapons is flamethrower
Good for raw prime fish meat and rock prime meat
Defenetly needs regular kibbl to tame. Not simple as intended in patch notes.
It stole my riot shield from me. And I went and 101. So I use the homing rocket on it with a smile. (Tip) don't go under that thing with good or you'll might lose it. That thing is real deal
Hide yo items, hide yo tames, hide yo buds, hide yo self.
Going to tame giga... got your raw mutton icthiornis be like
One Crossbow+Tranq will take it down.
You better give me that seagull so I can go get me some badass minnows. Mm, hm.
Can’t be carried by a tuso, quetz, etc. but can be carried by a human. Logic?
Be careful if you are knocking this out with a club, 1 extra hit after it got knocked out and it's dead.
Every. Single. One. Dies.
I don't know if it's my crossbow, but they always die in one shot. Use darts.
Put your narcotics and kibbel in your dino when trying to tame
Get a storage box and fit all your stuff in it apart from the weapon your using to knock it out so you wont have to worry about being stolen, aside from the taming weapon. Then when it is knocked out, get your taming stuff from the box and tame this thief bird. It's that easy.....
You have to tame a pego by letting it steal berries from you but to tame the flying pego, you need to knock it out. THEY ARE BASICLY THE SAME ANIMAL! WHY CANT YOU TAME THE FLYING PEGO LIKE A NORMAL PEGO, IT DOES NOT MAKE SENSE!!!
