Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a phoenix? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a phoenix.
Use 2 mate boosted fire wyverns 600 melee pump Stam, trap in a 5 high 1x1 fence foundation trap with normal doorframes, place a 3x3 ceiling platform on the side to put your wyverns on 2 doorframes high, I tamed a 50 on 4x in about one minute on official servers
Flamethrowes and fire wyverns can tame it
Heat wave is best time to find it
Capture with a hoverskiff tracker beam. It will hold it still while you tame it.
Use the Pay2Win Gene Scanner (Bob’s Tall Tales DLC) to find during heatwaves or before/after to find yourself a Phoenix on Official Servers.
they need to add fire wyvern breath taming and flame thrower taming and torch taming right?
Be ready to waste multiple hours waiting for a heat wave.
I’m a masochist burn me I like it
You can use the new bobs tall tales gene scanner to find it with no heatwave going. I have found 3 on the map at one time with this. Once you found the spot using the gene scanner use a cryo to lock on to it to find its exact location underground.
Ok so anyone that haven’t found or tamed 1 yet or want a go at it just get the GENE SCANNER with the bob expansion …you can track a phoenix even if it’s not in heatwave ..found 2 different phoenix in the same heatwave using the scanner, I killed the 1st low level one and another was already on the map right after.
With the phoenix you can use fire wyverns to tame it
Trap it in a argy trap but instead of using regular dino gates use behemoth ones and then keep on hitting it will a high melee fire wyvern. Remember they only last for 5 mins so tame them quick
You can tame it with a flamethrower too, if you have someone ride a Tappy or Griffin, sit on the back and have the flamethrower at the ready.
Just wait for a super heat fly around on an Argie or a wyvern with para that is constantly detecting enemies once you find It wait until the super heat ends watch nooblet’s video and when a super starts again hurl oil jars at set them on fire repeat AND BOOM you have a phoenix
Really the thing that’s hard with them is finding them as they can be anywhere on the map and that only around three spawn and the fact they only spawn during heat wave. If you find one don’t lose it when it falls to the ground build a six foot high cage around it. If you hav le actually trapped it use a fire wyvern as they are the most effective but arrows and flamethrowers work as well
Memorise where the phoenix is before the heat waves ends than build a trap 5 high so the phoenix would be trapped then throw oil jars down and light them with a torch the more oil jars you Light the more quicker the phoenix tames
When you find the Phoenix follow it around till the heatwave ends. You can build a taming box around the ashes and when it wakes up it'll be an easy tame. Flamethrower seems to work better than flame arrows and I'm assuming the fire wyvern works best of all but I haven't tried it with mine yet.
Use a fire wyvern's breath to tame. Wyverns are faster than pheonixes but have a larger turning radius. The trap where you follow it and put a box around it is still a really good idea though.
Nooblets is the best YouTube channel he makes such easy was to tame the hardest tames so check it out he will blow your mind.
