Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a paraceratherium? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a paraceratherium.
Building a stone tower and shooting it from there can work so long as those pesky titanboas don’t have any ideas after you get down
Note to self bring a decoy
My favourite tame! Easiest way to KO is to get it stuck on something. Occasionally they will spawn half inside rocks and when attacked won't be able to get out. Trang it and then mine the rock. Most animals won't attack a downed one anyway!
If you have tape it’s easier to tame one
If your on mobile here’s a great tip on taming one of these dudes 1 build a trap using four gates any kind place three in a u. Shape and then punch or aggro one of them lead them into the trap place the last one behind 2 if other ones are coming after you then just quickly go out of the game and then back in it will make them non aggro and then tranc the one you have in trap when it’s down shove berrys down it’s throat or it’s fav kibble BOOOM! You have one please up this if it helped thx
Put feeding troughs on it and walk around the base. Makes feeding your dinos more fun I guess?
This guy is like a cheaper version of bronto and It spawns in swamps and redwood forests.
How to tame one:
1. Bring a boatload of berries or feed it a couple of pachy kibble to tame much faster (also use soothing balm if you want to).
2. Don't forget to bring Tranq arrows, toxicant arrows, Tranquilizer darts or shocking Tranquilizer darts to knock out (also this creature is faster than bronto).
3. Once you have knocked out, put food in its inventory to tame it.
4. Enjoy your Paracer and you can build a base on it just like the bronto.
Hope this helps :)
If you don’t want to have to knock it out, you can go to the redwoods and just kill most of the animals in a spawn location until a baby spawns so you can imprint on it
Shoot and run bois, shoot and run
Needs double the kibble Dododex suggests, like most Dino’s I’ve come across. Easy to drop from above, with darts n Tranqs. Have back up crops n narcos
1.Get a soothing balm from hunter cave.
2. Collect 7 pachy egg(by taming pachy or from wild). Make kibbles. Enough for a 250 paracer.Which will be 350 after taming.
3.build a circle sized trap using 7/8 dino gateframe(stone).
4. Lure it from the swamp and trap it. Then knock it.
On Mobile it cannot hit you if you grapple onto it’s back
Under lvl 25 trap it in a cage and block it in with walls 3 high and tranq it worked for me and my friend
Lure in rocks it get big stuck. It looks really thirsty
This mf was lvl 80 and took 84 tranq arrows from a ramshackle crossbow, wasn't even near fainting.
I wish I was joking bruh
To tame one make a trap to avoid escaping and keep it from insects and other Dino's.give it 20 to40 Trang arrows.
I tamed a paracer level 76 with 3x taming speed and it said I needed about 50 narcotics so I brought a hundred and turns out I didn't need any
Since it’ll only aggro if you attack it, you can tame it pretty easily; find one in a safe enough area and box it in using stone dinosaur gates. They can’t break stone and they can’t fit through the gates, so it’s stuck in there. I only needed four gates but bring a few more just in case it doesn’t stay still. After that, just get a safe distance away and start shooting tranq arrows at it. You’ll need a good few, but once it’s down everything should be okay. I gave it a stack of carrots and kept an eye on it, ended up giving it about 7 narcotics total and after about 20-30 minutes it was tamed with a relatively decent bit of time left unconscious otherwise
Will not fit through dino gate. Behemoth gates only. Add one to your trap or you will have to break your way out.
This guys are great tame!! You have its platform saddle at level 50. It's smaller, faster and they have a faster stamina regain than a bronto. If tamed they can be a mobile base and metal refiner when you build a lots of refining forges there. Taming isn't so hard you just need to get him out of swamp fill it with tranq arrows/darts and then wait a lots of waiting and it is yours.
This creature can be your mobile base and is honestly for me the best metal collecting Dino. It’s not hard to tame just get on a cliff and shoot it with tranq arrows (20+) then feed it some berries, any will do and you just need to then keep it safe. Then you got yourself a paracer!
