Tips & Strategies

If you somehow encounter a Quetzal on the ground and you can't fly up there to shoot at it, forget it. It's impossible to shoot at it from the ground it doesn't hit the Quetzal. Just get a flyer like the PTERANODON, GRIFFIN, or TAPIJARA, and you should be fine.

DO NOT CRYOPOD IT WITH A PLATFORM SADDLE IT DESTROYS YOUR WHOLE BASE AND ALL YOU WORK
Quetz usually spawn at red obelisk, if you don't see one wait a few minutes for t to spawn. If you are looking for a high level kill the lower level one so it another can respawn
Where these bois spawn
1) The Red Obelisk and to the left near that Island π₯
2) The Green Obelisk and near the herbivore Island areaπ©
3) Sometimes the snow mountains π
NOTE: The red Obelisk is where you will most π

So... I figured out the exact spots for the spawns π The primary spot is just behind the red obelisk on the thin little strip of land near the southern island. (I almost always see one spawn there) I also find them frequently spawning around the βback spikeβ of the red obelisk. You will almost always find a quetz around these two places. (At least on mobile) If you want a high level, just kill the one that spawns at these two places and a new one will always respawn back at those two places. This technique worked for me.
I have found quetzals all over the map besides red obilisk.
I would love to know how you guys find all of these quetzals, I live right next to the red obelisk and havent found one near yet .-.
Iβm a lvl 84 and Iβve only seen these guys about 7 times. I was on my Argy, higher than the tallest redwood tree and I seen them. Yes they like to fly high and they have been watching you tame that lvl 45 dilo.
Quetzals spawn at the obelisks often, same goes with the red woods
