Watch Nooblet best way to trap a Phoenix and he uses oil jars and a parasajr to find the ashes and traps it.

You can get it to spawn next to your base because of the following: It always respawns at it's last location, so if the heatwave ends while you are following it you will know where it is for the next heatwave. It also chases you when you eat flowers... hint hint

To the person who asked, Phoenixes eat Sulfur.

Find a phenix during a heatwave and follow it until it ends. The phenix will turn into ashes and land on the ground but will spawn right back at the same exact spot during the next heatwave. Build a trap 6 blocks high so I can't glitch out and you have yourself a trapped phenix to tame:)

here is two ways to tame this bub

one: the quick way,

1: heat wave

2: get on fast and good tame

3: find one

4: if found use fire wyvern or flame arrows

two: the trap way,

1: start from step 3 on way one but wait for heat wave to end.

2: find big pile of ashes

3: place a trap. add oil jars for good results

4: wait for next heat wave

5: light the fire bird up!

Welcome to the ultimate guide to the Phoenix πŸ¦β€πŸ”₯ if you want to tame this guy you should at first prepare tons of fire arrows or level up the damage of your fire wyvern. Finding this guy is incredibly difficult because he is only found in heat waves and is not to big but once you do locate him (or her it does not matter they don’t have genders) wait until he turns into ash at the end of a heatwave and build a cage around the ashes when there is another heatwave and he comes back burn him it’s the only way to tame him he likes fire πŸ”₯. Once you have your own phoenix he (or her) can be very useful he is a fire so it can cook and melt metal (but for some reason not scrap) it also poops silicon pearls and on the rare occasion black pearls πŸ˜€. In battle he is not the best but still powerful enough to burn most wild creatures he has three attacks bite,fireball,and scratch (which can also damage rocks πŸͺ¨) and also he cannot land and walk so he regains stamina in the air as long as you don’t move or have run on.

You can look for it with a parasaur when heatwave isn active...it can detect an ash pile...i got lucky and found one after 5min

Fun fact! You can tame the Phoenix by hitting it with a torch so you don’t have to waste you’re time shooting it and missing and what not just wanted to help everyone out because this creature is definitely something worth getting

Step 1: find ash pile

Step 2: trap the ash pile

Step 3: bring a Wyvern or flamethrower

Step 4: wait until it spawns on the ash pile

Step 5: burn it

Step 6: you have successfully tamed a Phoenix

Smash oil bottles and light them on fire under the Phoenix, it tames it so quickly!
