To tame these guys you need to get them to steal berries in your inventory cuz they a herbivore and then it will start getting tamed
As of April 2019, I’ve discovered a neat trick to tame these ugly rat things. Make a 2x2 box. I used fence foundations and one row of walls personally. Drop it in there and use amounts of 25 with mejoberries. When it grabs the first amount, whip it out of its hands. Also, body block it into a corner! The taming bar will NOT drop after it is whipped and body blocked in my personal experience! I’ve sucessfully tamed five quickly with this weird method. The ugly rat breeding line has officially begun!
Forcetame than kill as it wot bother you
The most effective is to have 1 mejoberry on the last slot then when it takes it and it can get out of the taking pit, just add another one on the last slot and repeat until you befriend a frickin ROBBER!
Keep mejo’s in your last item slot on your hot bar to tame but don’t run out or they’ll take something else from your inventory
Pegomastax seems bugged: the lunge WILL give affinity but it will quickly decline.
You must always stay next to it when it steals to properly apply (and keep) affinity.
I tamed this guy accidentaly, he was about to steal my phone
I tamed one completely on accident on a high rate sever while starting out after a passive berry tame. Named it Accident because it was.
These guys steal the most valuable things they took ascendant weapons from me before if u don't kill before battle music ends ur loose it forever !!!
Berry in last slot.
Let steal berry.
Steal things
If you want to tame it, put some berries in the last slot and let him steal them from you.
Take an owl and use its owl vision to search for one. Have a few stacks of Mejoberries, and one on the hot bar on the last slot. Let it steal from you, and follow, then trap in a tent!!! After it’s trapped, sneak inside and shut the flap quick, then just stand, keep refilling the berries in your hot bar and let it tame itself. It’s super easy, and I’ve done it numerous times - on official.
All I did to tame them was I put narcoberries in my last item slot and he came and snatched them he ran off couldn't find him till I tamed him.
These are the pug's of ark. So ugly and so cute. I find that you have to split your crops into stacks of 1 or 2 to tame because it will tame the same as having full stacks. It will only steal one at a time, stay by and it will come back for more! By far my favorite buddy you can have on your shoulder.
Are they tameable normal or only passive
Crops do nothing they just taken n run dose nothing for taming if you want one of these just use a bunch of berries and stick the thing in a room I used 98mejo and about 300beries of azul n tinto for a lvl 20 so its about 400neries for a lvl20 have fun
I don't like rats! I don't like thieves! This thing is both and I hate it more than a thieving rat!
For a lvl 60 it took 1300 mejoberries do not be to close to it but dont be to far away its aggro radius is wierd and wont read u of ur to close.
I'm pretty sure it's a passive tame. You need to have its required food in your inventory and let it jump at you and steal your food.
