Taming & KO Tips
How do I tame a phiomia? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a phiomia.
They eat really fast so make sure you have a lot of berries :D
You can use a club to knock it out
I finally tamed one when I was a noob and then I ran out of the swamp on him and ran into a theri, my brother looked over my shoulder and said “you dead” rip wilbur because of the clawsome chicken
I like to start with them they are good starters moschops is better but in ark mobile (the one I have) you can't ride him so otherwise phiomia is the best in my opinion when you tame them make sure you check their inventory mine had a sling shot hatchet and 10 arrows I found mine in the swamp there are lots in the swamp but be careful the swamp is crawling with titanaboa make sure you have plenty of berries with you when you go looking for them
Up /\ for the noobs to know
When I was running around getting wood across the creek near my house, I saw one stuck in 3 rocks. I took out my hatchet and pickaxe, and I hit it 4 times, and then hit it with my fist until it went unconscious. I fed it about 50 berries, and boom! I still have him now. I use him to deliver to other people.
If you don't want to go to the redwoods/swamp they're also on herbivore island
If ou want to tame one for its pooping ability, craft a saddle as well for easier transportation back. Their stamina runs out quickly though, and takes a long time to refill.
If you want to tame one but don’t want to go to the swamp, find them in the southern islets. I find them there. Click the happy arrow so noobs can see. You can craft a saddle at level 10 and use this as a mount, but be warned, the stamina runs dry fast when you are riding it and sprinting. Or you can feed it stimberries to make it poop.
These goofy oofy crusty musty people talking about being level 20 and chasing it are confused! CRAFT. A. BOLA
NOT THAT HARD GUYS!
Don’t try to chase it they are faster than you so either corner it or bola it then knock it out with your fists or a club works too
These things poop every 2 minutes but useful to grow crops.

Here's a fun thing to do (also important if you want fertiliser).
Put 500+ stimberries in a phio's inventory and force feed them really fast. I would recommend an autocliccker. You will get an epic amount of poop. I also remember some trollers did this on servers to cause alot of lag lol
Very good for getting poop, Make sure it doesn't flood your house in POOP
Taming one of these is real easy you just need a bola and club then about 30 berrys
Well if you wanna tame one of these things be prepared and pack up with ALOT of berries because they eat them VERY fast also it takes them a long time to wake up also there fast so bring tranq darts or in early game bring a club or sling shot
How to tame phioma fast and easy
Materials needed:
Crossbow
Tranq arrows
Mejoberries
PT with high stamina(depends on where you live)
Or raft if you don't have saddle for pt and/or pt
How to tame:
1. Fly to herbivore island, bottom right part of island
2. Find phioma and wait till night then knock out with crossbow it will take 2 shots 1 head 1 body
3. Make a bed and sleep
4. Enjoy you new phioma,
When you sleep in bed while taming any dino will tame by the time u wake up regardless of lvl and torpor drain if u don't believe me then try it out I've done with most of my tames.
(I'm not sure if it works for carnivores like rex, spino, raptor, or other med-big dinos cause I've only done it with herbivores and 2 Pts)

When taming must give loads of berrys cuz these fat eaters will eat anything
There not that hard to tame I shot one like 3 times it fell asleep bing a lot of berries (I had to bring 58 amara berries) I got a saddle and wipeeeeeeeeeeee he’s mine
If your house is full with poop you have a ton of fertilizer
Just bola him and use a club. You have a poop machine!! 😎
