Tips & Strategies

What are tips for pyromane? Tips and strategies for pyromane in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
What I do is build a trap with gates on land and a bit on water in a circle and search for wild dino's,
Put them in the circle and place the pyromane in the trap and just let it kill everything and it will be tamed easily like this.
You can pick them up with a wyvern and just throw them in the trap
If having difficulty in the area losing them to wild Dinos while taming. Pick them up with an argy. Bring them to another area or island with their body in the water to prevent them catching you on fire and fight all the easier Dinos. Makes the taming way less annoying and heavily lowers the death risk and having to find another high level one.
Don't fly too close or they will shoot fire at you and set you on fire for like 20 seconds.
To tame Pyromanes on official you will run into the same issue I did, lack of dinos. I suggest kiting it to another island and using a boat with a small building ontop to kite and shoot from while it’s in the water. Basic pump shotgun works very well for the first phase. Once you do enough damage it will be rideable for a few seconds move to it and climb on its back to start the 2nd phase. Run around and attack Dino’s and absorb the flames to take the pyromane. Absorbing the flames also heals the pyromane so don’t be worried about fighting rexs and the other carnivores. Having someone scout ahead is very helpful. Once you get it to 100% do the flame boost and you have yourself a very hot kitty 😁 have fun and be safe.
Seems like alot think you HAVE TO kill. . You dont have to kill creatures, it is just based off how many times you use flame absorb NOT killing. You can get away with taming a 150 on 1x from one creature like the turtles
To tame your own Pyromane, kite it to a body of water so that it acquires the Doused debuff. Continue to attack it to bring its health down to below 50%. Once sufficiently weakened, you should be able to interact with it to mount it. Once mounted, attack nearby creatures to apply a burning effect, then use Flame Absorb (ctrl-secondary) to absorb the flame to progress the taming meter.
On Scorched Earth, Pyromane spawn in the wyvern trench, around which are no bodies of water. However, a wyvern is capable of carrying a Pyromane, so you'll need to pick up your target and drop it in the nearest body of water (for example, around the Red or Blue Obelisk) to tame them
For early game taming make sure there are actual Dino’s nearby or you will be sad with that 150. Also carbo or any Tank dino especially bronto will make taming unreal levels of easy just farm it and only hit flame absorb when max on it
If you Bola it in water and get it to roar while still in Nola, when you remove it, it will still attack so shoot it again (this is for early game taming with crossbow)
Baby pyromanes get 50 food from cooked meat, 25 from raw. Opposite of most dinos.
Step 1 find a pyromane
Step 2 agro it t the nearest water
Step 3 have a boat ready to transport them to blue orb
Step 4 hit them until it roars
Step 5 kill everything at blue orb it'll be much easier an faster too
They also spawn in the Wyvern trench on Scorched Earth and can be taned when raining or potentially lead to the water in the trench cave.
Where are they on Ragnarock? I will put coordinates of them found when I figure it out. But does anyone know right now?
You must extinquish in water and damage until pyromane roars. Only until then you can ride on the back and start taming. Kill dinos and collect fire from dinos that get burnt
Worst thing I can’t even tame because people said use “shotguns”. Shotguns kill it. Don’t bother using one. Couldn’t even get it to kill anything either
I suggest planning a route before trying to taming a pyromane. I cannot tell you how much of a headache I experienced because pyromane bucked me before I could find anything creatures to kill.
Also, if you get bucked, pyromanes cooldown is 5 minutes before you can mount it again.
A smart Idea would be to wait for rain, then damage it and hop on its back and Then….
MURDER EVERYTHING HAHAHHAHAHHAHAHA
By the way you can bola them and carry them with a wyvern or an argy
You can find pyromanes in the center.
You have to take them in the water until it does a roar animation.
Sadly you have to buy "Fantastic Tames" DLC to tame it
-Ellie is cool 😎
