Tips & Strategies

Knocking out a high level lymantria within a single bola is impossible with a primitive crossbow. Instead, quickslot two pillars, two thatch ceilings, and five thatch walls. Bola the moth over flat land, then drop a pillar on one side. Ceilings next over it, then the other pillar on the other side. Hang walls from the ceilings. When it comes out of the bola, it's trapped. Tranq slowly so it won't die, and leave the trap up as a tame blind during taming. If you fail to trap it just try again; it won't flee far after a bola attack if you did no other attacks.
More Lymantria Taming & KO Tips
For an easy tame, wait for the Lymantria to land and then place a tent directly where he/she is at. Its stuck until the tents durability dies out, this gives you enough to build a little house around it for a safe, easy tame.
Use this to get Rock Drake/Wyvern/Deinonychus eggs
And when they aggro, fart on those demons π
An easy was to tame a Lymantria us to use a bola on it then shot it in the face with tranq arrows or darts.
Wait until night. Then build a light source it'll be unusually attracted to it.
Bola and tranq. Do not rapid fire, wait a few seconds before next shot or it will die.

Best tame to steal deinychochus eggs in valguero fart on the feathery raptors and steal the egg & run
Using tent as trap to tame don't work anymore.
1. Get tranq arrows
2. Get a bow or crossbow
3. Get a bola
4. Throw the bola at the Lymantria and start shooting it with tranq arrows
5. Make sure not to kill the Lymantria in the process
Happy Taming!
THIS took me forever. Finally figured it out, I read a tip that said shoot until you see blood, I did and then beat it with a club. FINALLY AFTER KILLING SO MANY!
They are moths that fart knockout gas. Whatβs not to like?
