Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a palaeoctopus? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a palaeoctopus.
Yarr, mateys! Ye can tame this here Kraken of the sea, by allowing it to grab ye with its terrible tentacles, and feeding it jelly toxin when it shakes ye screen until it’s knocked out. Once it’s tamed ye can use it to climb up walls, create ink, and drag filthy bilge rats down to Davy Jones’s Locker!
Biotoxin is the best item to put it to sleep.And as of now in the updates exceptional kibble is its preferred food for perfect taming
Feed it when your screen shakes, not before 👍🫡
You can breed these octopuses the female has to be in water for egg to be safely born doesn’t work on land from my testing/theory.
So u wanna get a mount that’s fast swim up to it then herd it like a cowboy to land then when u got it at a safe spot let it chill walk away a second then it will go in camo
They actually prefer prime fish meat over exceptional kibble, and they don’t eat black pearls at all
To tame let it grab you and feed it narco’s at its beak, then it’ll pass out like the acro only don’t attack it, it attacks you! Being good gear and lots of narco’s.
I try to feed it biotoxin But it did not want to eat it
Does anyone else have a problem with this thing not eating the Botoxin or narcotics
They don’t seem to like the taste of black pearl(not eating)
Raw Prime Fish Meat is the best for taming, Dododex is wrong
They like to eat prime fish meat rather than kibble
I dont knwo if its a bug or a feature but if the palaeoocopus is pretending to be a coral or wtv under water and you start the taming progress you will not lose oxygen constantly quite the opposite you will gain oxygen after it is done squeezing you
Get ready to literally chase a little a$$hole across the ENTIRE ocean. Feed it Narcs until it’s out and you’ll feel like you never ever wanna tame another one again. Most deff traumatized. Oh look another pretty one! #Tidepuphealingforthewin
Gene scan till you get picked, bio toxin it when it does a roar, until it knocks out. Feed it prime fish meat for fastest taming if not exceptional kibble works. Can also be tamed on land same way.
It’s a knockout tame but you don’t just shoot it with tranqs because it won’t work, instead you need to get grabbed by it and when you get pulled close to its mouth you feed it narcotics or bio toxin and knock it out, then you feed it and there now you have fast water tame and it can walk on land pretty fast and a hijacking ship machine.
Should make it that theres s new armor under water Ghille that you gotta use to get near it when you get near it you gotta hit its eye making it not see and feed it kibble(exeptinal) till tamed or it should be a knockout both seem good
To tame the octopus you have to find it on land the it will put its two front tentacles up then you go close and it will grab you. When you are grabbed you are taking constant damage so bring mere and what you actually need to feed him is either narcotic or bio toxin in your last slot. Once he has grabbed you he will periodically bring you down to the beak and it will start a chomping animation, you don’t want to feed it yet you have to wait until the screen shakes and he bites at you to feed him sort of like a parry. If you feed to early or to late he will damage you. Once you feed him enough drugs he will be knocked out and be ready carry out your nefarious plans
Bio toxin and Raw prime fish is the best to tame with.
Raw prime fish meat is the best. Black pearls are useless.
