How ARK players tame and knock out the Maewing: what to feed it, what to knock it out with, and how to keep it safe.

If anyone’s curious where these spawn with a mod to have them on the island map. They spawn in the north area of the redwoods and would only spawn for me when I was close.

How to easily tame and what you will need

Materials:

rifle and a couple of tranqs to knock it out (you won't need many because they have low torpor)

You may also need some natrionics just in case

You can also use a harpoon and projectile so it doesn't get…

Let’s admit it the fact this can be tamed with basic kibble is ridiculous for the utility these things have

They can be bred right now, both will lay eggs. It is too hot at 76F. Don't know if this is intended or not since they're genderless.

Isolate the one you wanna tame, set up a large bear trap, use a rare flower to lure into the trap, tranq it( wont take much ), put food( it's an omnivore ), and FLY AWAYYYYY with your maewing.

After this, he will love you so much that he will never give you up or let you…

Really easy tames, have great weight, and are incredibly fast. To tame a low lvl simply shoot it with your x-bow and tranq arrows. For high lvl i reccomend a trap, but you can just tranq it, hunt it down, and tranq it again, otherwise if you have a high quality x-bow or…

Literally the best exploration mount in the game.

EXTREMELY easy to tame as they have very low torpor, do not aggro and eat meat. (Mutton only next to kibble)

Can easily be tamed with the use of a simple trap and/or rare flower if you haven’t unlocked net gun yet (since…

Maewings spawn in groups of three in Asgard on Fjordur.

They can be trapped while not aggroed by placing a wooden billboard over their neck, and behind them (sometimes an extra over their midsection bc they will try to jump and glide away).

Hover over top directly: this stops their jump flight maneuvering;

Then rain down tranq arrows should take 2

If you want it early game I suggest crossbow and chase down with a pteranadon

You can use a harpoon launcher with a net to trap the maewing and tranq it, also it eats meat or berries and you can find them in redwood forest in fjordur as thats where i got mine.

Net gun it then knock it out with whatever tranqulising item you have

Net guns are a lifesaver. You need a harpoon gun which is quite expensive for early game and some polymer for net projectiles but they allow you to get so many tames like a griffin, argy, or maewing. Maewings have low torpor so you can use a crossbow or equus (very good). On…

Would recommend taking them in Asgard, spent 2 hours trying to tame one of the 4 I could find in red woods, literally counted over 12 in the first 5 minutes in Asgard.

On lost island, they can be found on the top right part of the map

Wasn’t finding hardly any on fjordur. Then checked the snow region in redwood region by green Ob and found tons. 2 of which were 180s. Check there

Use the net projectile its very easy to knock out then

They are breedable and upon being bred they will actually drop 2 eggs (one from each Maewing). Their eggs incubate super fast so be ready to take care of the baby immediately.
