Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a palaeoctopus? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a palaeoctopus.
I tried finding one of these, but it's not easy. Eventually I found one swimming aroud and I tried to chase it to shore (It's harder than it sounds). Eventually I got it to a rock underwater, and started feeding it bio toxin, but 3 bio toxin in I got eaten by a meglodon. I respawned at my bed and went to where i was taming it, and it was gone. 😭 😭 😭
Needs to be updated bcuz it can take yellow kibble to tame
If you are on console PS5/XBox, you need a keyboard to feed. Tried all other methods and nothing else worked, so until they fix this bug, you can't seem to feed it biotoxin or narcotics to knock it out.
Use superior kibble to tame. I put black pearls it didn’t eat.
Eats exceptional kibble for taming. Not sure if thats the prefered but it does eat it
For people who are trying to feed it black pearls (tuso) or biotoxin (acro), THATS NOT THE METHOD! The method is to feed in narcs while it has a tight grip on you and it shows you its beak.

When he falls asleep, give him Prime Fish.You can also grab it with a Tusoteuthis and carry it closer to the shore.
So apparently there is a glitch, when one says Wild on ur spyglass or magnifying glasse or gene scanner, it either means it’s wild or that it’s “feral”. Feral is when it’s from a mission or In a mission area. Therefore you can’t tame it. Look for some at 50L 50L. It’s got good spawn rates and no missions there I think. Happy searching
There are problems on controller, it wont let you feed it. Feels just like the genesis 1 release ahh.
Takes a long time even on x5 rates. 700 per biotoxi. A 144 has 19k torpor. Like 35 secs between feeding. Only really possible in shallows or land as megs...
Not a top but a question what tier kibble does it like ?
The prime fish is not good. Change it! Do not use. Cost me my 150 tame.
