More Pachyrhinosaurus Taming & KO Tips
Be warned, torpor drops pretty fast on these, and they have low torpor as well. Also, they eat bug repellent. No, seriously.
Their "kibble" is bug repellent
For mobile players, this is definitely useful and should tame if you want to farm black pearls. Black pearls is hard to get in mobile unless you kill tuso, alpha mosasaur, run dungeon. Well here some lil tips (just my idea for farm black pearls)
- tamed pachyrhino have 2 effect and that's hidden and aggro. While you use aggro effect everything will come and attack you even the parasaur, pteranodon, fish.
- bring your otter with you and take your pachyrhino to somewhere water there is so many fish and use the aggro effect and yeet your otter let your otter do the job (otter attack fish if the fish attack you and otter will get you black/ white pearls after kill the fish, no need to whistle your otter just let fish attack your pachyrhino while you riding). Then boom, you get 10 black pearls per minute.
Although everything might attack you, no worries. Just put points on health(and dmg if necessary) then kill all the thing with your pachyrhino except the fish. Pachyrhino dealt very good amount of dmg
If you think this tips is useful, up to let other see this

Their farts calm carnivores
Some people say pachyrhino’s calm chemical reduces the creature’s food when taming. I tried it and all it did was nothing and just reduced the stamina to negative. I don’t know if im doing it wrong or its just not on mobile.
Not for taming a Pachy, but rather other knockout-tames. Once they are knocked out (be on pc/console for this) Yeet the Pachy out of its cryopod, use the Calming Pheromones to drain the creatures stamina, in order to regain stamina, the creature will drain their own hunger so they’ll eat faster, therefore taming faster. If on Mobile, carry the Pachy using a Quetz or Request them over. Congrats, you can now tame that 360 Giga on Fars Peak, GREGORY.
Guys I just figured it the COOLEST thing! If you’re a beginner and you want to tame a raptor or a terror bird or saber tooth, but you’re too slow, lead it to one of these guys. When the thing you want to tame attacks it, the pachy will release a gas that will make anything around lose all stamina. It’s a bug or a glitch or something, but I assure you it will make your target a “slow walker”. For a few minutes (at least, maybe forever) the raptor, terror bird, etc. will only be able to walk. It’s awesome! I tamed a max level terror bird this way at a really low level. (This was on mobile).
Do not throw bolas at them, all it will do is make them mad
Don't aim for the head, as the multiplier works against you, check headshots/multipliers for this. Bring a lot of narcotics and watch out for its gas that is released upon running away from you
It’s kibble is bug repellent so you’ll need like 9-11 bug repellents to tame it if you don’t have bug repellents just use crops which you can grow in large crop plots that includes a rockcarrot, citronal, longrass and a savoroot, also it’s torpor goes down really fast so you have to have lots of biotoxin on you which you can get from a Cnidaria (jellyfish) 20-30. If you can’t find that just use narcotics 50-60 or narcoberries 90-130 it’s saddle unlocks at level 27 and you need
140x hide
80x fiber
25x wood
You can use a large bear trap but you’ll need like 1-2 cause you need like 5-9 tranq arrows or 1-3 tranq darts
