Use 1 shocking tranq darts and then shoot it a few times with a tranq arrows for your first low lvl quetz it's easier and faster and it lower the risks of get downed and then dropping in water

(Old Ark Mobile)This is very long to do but effective, First tame a Tapejara, after doing that tame a high level female Rex make rex kibble. The the Quetzal taming, prepare, find a high level Quetzal, remember Tapejara saddles have two seats, switch seats then whistle 'target' then the Tapejara will follow the Quetzal, next shoot it with darts, when it's knock down apply soothing balm and put the kibble in it's inventory, make sure the area where it's knock down is safe.

This tip is good for mobile find the big bird then kill take its implant revive in box tame it done

If you cant find any at the red obelisk check the snowy mountainous areas

People really aren’t being precise with their location, they aren’t as high up as people say they are. Wander around the map, it should be flying about 30 ft above the tree line. If not then look up and around which you should be doing already lol.

I swear when ever I would knock one of these guys out if would always find a way to commit suicide from getting knocked out in the middle of the swamp to drowning in the most tiny puddle I ever seen. I cried because this game just does not want me to have a quetzal

Followed it on my pt and when it flew down to the ground and got stuck in a wall I placed multiple stone Dino gates on him and ko’ed him.

The best place to find them are around the red obalisk

Is there any way to lure it into a trap? Pls tell.

These get stuck in terrain a lot on the ragnarok map, makes for easy tame

Before you knock it out make sure you got spikes to put around it just a tip

They dont throw you down like argies and pteras do so you can tame another quetzal with quetzal

The best KO method is to just chase it down riding a griffin, which is the only vanilla flyer that you can use weapons while riding. Alternatively you can "ride" a wyvern by standing on its back without actually mounting it and using whistle commands, you can also mount a tapejara's passenger seat and do that without the slight risk of falling like with a wyvern. Another alternative is to have a friend carrying you with a stamina leveled pteranodon (argentavis might work but it's a bit slow), but be careful not to accidentally shoot your pteranodon!

To tame them you need a strong flyer kill them make a revival platform and then make a trap of pillars you can also use obelisk do not harvest them first

Quetzal is one of the most rare dinosaur in ark if see one. force to tame with rex kibble.

They usually are not used for fighting unless they have a platform saddle but they are great at fighting even without one. They deal more damage per hit than an argy, and they have incredible knock back, it can even deal a tiny amount of knock back to a Rex if it is on flat ground. They also have a high amount of health and stamina.

If you finding a Quetzal just go to South Isle it is easy to find just find in the sky they are always in the sky and make sure you have a tapejara or a griffin to tame it easy.....

Simply get a snow owl, find a safe place, freeze it out of the sky,the quetz will walk for a few seconds.freeze again and place 4 dinosaur gates. Bring food and narcotics, enjoy your new quetz! This in my opinion is the Easiest way to tame a quetz in ark, no chain bolas no grappling hooks.

One time me and my brother were trying to tame one of these and it fell into the water and we had to Watch as our freshly tranqed quetz drowned

They aren’t always near obelisks. I have been searching for one for days now, have circled the island many times and even done a server reset and have yet to see one near an obelisk. The 2 I did find were near the redwoods and died upon KO due to a troodon pack
