Tamed during night hours, if you are going to tame it, do it 20:00 so you have all night or fully starve. If kod during night hours it will stay down. Confirmed.
Megalosaurus
The megalosaurus is one of the strongest therapods, but its nocturnal sleeping pattern make it significantly less effective during the day. The megalosaurus can bite and even latch onto enemies — including humans — and swing them around, hindering their ability to move. This carnivore is stronger than a Carno or a Rex at night, but during the day, it is much more slow and sluggish.
Player-written tips for taming, using, and fighting the Megalosaurus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Always in the "hanger" of the large cave entrance in the center map, in that cave there are 2 blue drops and 1 purple one very close but don't enter at night
Knock it out early in the day and then starve it. When it wakes up at night knock it out again and then start taming. Starve it longer if using something other than kibble. Simple
I just found this dino in the cave artefact of the hunter LVL 45. Looks like a cave update
Found two in one trip to the southeast cave on the island. It took a couple of attempts, bit it WILL fit out of the cave. Watch out for the wake up at 2030.
This Dino is mostly used for kibble they are hard to tame... you need to knock ck out a low lvl at dawn and make sure the cave has been cleared out.
Don't tank with argy you will get grabbed almost lost lb 245 argy 6k health it did 1k damage in 4 sec
Found one in the lower south cave but killed it before knowing how rare they are. Look for them curled up in a ball when they're sleeping
Megalosaurus is verry gud when master and hate out of the basing. Damage and more damage will done if dark inside or out the side and everywhere as the well increases. I highly recomend as gud dinosor for meat and the gathering as well meat. Do it wake up you need put back on…

Their use is very limited due to the fact that you can only use it at night. During the day, if you keep it awake, it's stamina will drop very fast and upon reaching 0, it will start gaining torpor very fast which ultimately leads it to fainting.
If you get stuck out…

If you get stuck out during the day, you can stop and set it to sleep to regain stamina and reduce torpor and hopefully rinse and repeat until you can get home. Be very careful if you carry it with flying mount, if it sleeps or faints you will drop it.
In PvE you are unable to pick up wild dinosuars, which limit's its use even further.
Even at night, while it's attacks are powerful, it isnt a first choice simply due to it's stamina. While longlasting, it regains stamina painful slow, keep it in mind if you need to flee!
In order to tame you must be quick even though the thing is weak day it can still pick you up and do some damage come with the tranquilizer darts and long neck rifle crossbow and tranquilizer arrows also work you might want to be in a group so you can survive
Bring around 20 stone pillars to trap it just Incase it wakes up on you
When I got mine I lured it out of the cave during the day, knocked it out and made a stone fence around it, worked great
the wake up in the night even if your taming them I went to make eggs and mine woke up and killed me so watch out😂😂
Find in cave. Very fast agro. Hard to find. Good luck.
Tame on aberration so they don't wake up
To tame one easily, build one pillar with a ceiling on top of it. Then agro the m3galosaur with now. When it gets close to you place a large hatch frame. This if done correctly will make the m3galosaur only able to run in circles for easy taming.
Do this at day it will lose health because it's awake at day so before you knock it out just let it's food drain a bit so you have a head start also knock it out but you can let it wake up at night if it's not staved
When it's tamed it's really strong. If you start the meat run as soon as it's night you can get quite a bit of meat.
Do not perform a server restart or save and quit on single player while taming a Megalosaurus in Aberration. The Megalosaurus will instantly wake up regardless of torpor upon reloading into the game.
