Taming & KO Tips
How do I tame a procoptodon? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a procoptodon.
Very lovely and beautiful little guys!!! What I did was carry it back to my base with my argy, bola’d her, and then used tranq arrows until it passed out. Viola! Pretty easy! You could probably just skip the argy part if you don’t have one, but you’ll have to make sure no other dinos come along and hurt your kangaroo buddy while it’s unconscious. Also make sure you have the rare mushrooms on you!
Just gonna say that the things the birds can and can’t pick up needs updated. I picked up a Procoptodon with my argy just yesterday.
RARE FLOWERS DONT WORK ON MOBILE! THEY WONT CHASE YOU! 8-27-22
How to tame on mobile:
Step 1: Get bronto
Step 2: Bring bronto to swamp
Step 3: Demolish trees to get rare mushrooms
Step 4: Spend ages looking for a procoptodon. The best way to find them is to not be looking for them.
Step 5: Carry procy back to base with argy
Step 6: Tranq and feed mushrooms

How to take a kangaroo not confirmed but will probably work MOBILE ONLY MOBILE ONLY MOBILE ONLY
Grab with an argy and bring it to a 2x2x2 thatch foundation place a roof over it and tranq it
Very easy to tame one of these fellas in mobile. First take a bola and trow it at the roo. Then while it is stuck place 3 to 4 wooden wall signs around it. Trank it and feed it rear mushrooms. You will need a few narqs and soon you will have a bouncy chief
You can pick them up with Argys on mobile. Did today
Is it just me, but should they addd a savana-y map. Ik they have scorched but it’s more DRY desert than savanna. They should have another desert map like how they have the island and lost island but this would be scorched earth the dry more Death Valley-type place and the new one will be more like lion king setting. With tall grass plains and the odd tree, watering holes with spinos and equises? Equi? You get it. I feel like with all the new maps they are making this would be a good one! Also look on the fenrir page and if u see the post on it would be cool if the added the Roc 🦅 this would be a good map for it. To recap:
The rock is basically a GIANT eagle. Much like the Argi but MUCH MUCH bigger and more eaglish. They would be birds of pray and would come in grays and browns. To tame prob be knoc and food would be any meat. They could be ridden and might have a swoop attack. Maybe in wild they would swoop you and stego-size creatures when hunting and lift them up high wile doing damage then drop when high enough.
👍🏻 so Wild Card will add
It says that you can't pick it up with an argy and that you can't bola it. But I just did. I found one near the volcano (on The Island), picked it up with my argy, flew back to my base, threw a bola on it, knocked it out and fed it rare mushrooms. Then it was tamed! This was on mobile tho.
I saw few at red wood. Bring your flying Dino. Up this so people can watch it. It help a lot in breeding & feeding some particular Dino's
Pick it up with your argy then take it to your base and have someone shoot it while you're holding it with the argy. Actually works. Much easier than chasing it all over your base. Lol.
Tame timing is WAY off here, so is starve timer. Make sure you have lots of narc and mushrooms
If you build a wood 2x2 with two high wood doorframes with ramps on the side you can eat a rare flower and lead it into the trap very easy and the trap won’t break at all since they don’t attack for longer thank 30 seconds
Get rare mushrooms from the swamp, not the the tall trees but the ones that have multiple roots going into the ground. Use a metal pick axe too! You'll know the difference between trees when you see them
It says you can’t carry with your argy but on mobile I have been able to!
Some rare mushrooms and a couple narco arrows does the trick. I got lucky and got mine stuck in some rocks
Can no longer be bola'd, can't be carried by any fliers, and their idle speed makes it difficult to trap. A pretty easy way to tame them is by freezing it with a snow owl and putting spiked walls around it
I used a single bola and I think 5 tranq arrows. Soothing balm would’ve helped but I had some extra tranq sauce because 12 magic mushrooms was not enough to satisfy the beast
don't use wyvern wing to trap it. When u do this and u try tranq it, ark makes it disappear! Lost few to this. Use rare flower trap. Old school
Found in and around Redwood (island) bola won't work use trap
