Tips & Strategies

So after trying to tame one for a little bit I can confirm that the dino size matters my shadowmane has 50k health and only gave about 6% health also matter but not as much as size.
Some dinos cannont be used all together as my kentros all with 65k hp + were not even being mind controlled.
I am currently now breeding Brontos to tame them, and would highly recommend using them for max effectiveness make sure your dinos are healed to full health and that the noglin is either trapped or far away from creatures and fly traps as the traps will eat the noglin of your controlled dinos head.
Rex: 4% with 9k/12.5 health
Shadowmane 9% with 51k/51k hp
Brontos i hear give 20% per bronto with assuming leveled health
Void Wyrm: 20% sane as bronto
I learned all of this on a semi boosted server with 5x taming and a wild dino level of 300 max.
More Noglin Taming & KO Tips
Bipity bopity your Rex is my property
Noglin looks pretty cool anyone agree
Diplodocus are way better than turtle.150 perfect tame diplos can give 20% taming to noglins upto a pretty good level. Amd diplos don't do damage against any creatures.
Let others see this tip
Who thinks this should be in aberration ?!!!
Bola the Noglin or use Plant Species Y.
Then build fast 4 Wood fence fundaments around it then place 4 Walls on the fence fundaments so hes caged.
Now place 8 small wood Gates with Gate Doors around the cage but let enough space for the turtles that you will place in it.
You need around 6 turtles (depends on the Noglin level and the turtle life).
You will need to move the turtles around because the Noglin will not instantly control your turtles.
If the life of a dino is Below 50% the Noglin is not interested.

Because this is the first creature in ark that will be able to mindbend with other dinos, they might create a new way of taming it. Taming sacrifices have been done with the troodon, and it might be the same with the noglin. But does anyone think it would be cool if wildcard DID start to create a new type of taming!?
You let it latch onto your tames in order to tame it. But reminder! It canβt be a bred tame only βfreshβ. So you can tame a dino (ex Carb/Turtle) and feed it to the noglin but you canβt say feed it a bunch of rexs you hatched and raised. Hope this helps and makes some sense!
You can't tame using the noglin the potential tame dies after the control is done but my theory is you could have two and use them to breed the dinos
Itβs favourite food is free will.
Use brontos for taming 130+ noglins for max effectiveness the brontos have to be leveled the noglin drains a lot of there hp so have a daeodon ready if your looking for more!
