What are tips for quetzal? Tips and strategies for quetzal in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
for single player /solo play get a tapejara, switch seat, shoot, switch seats again, rinse and repeat, make sure to take spikes lots of narcs and food with you. so much easier than messing around with grapple.
Net gun it and build around it so it cant escape and get out. Best way is on gen 2 since u can fly. Or with a griffin or tapejara. But the argie grapple method works too. Good luck!
Easiest way to tame it make a harpoon gun and some nets then net the quetzal out of the air and knock it out
Wait till it’s at half before you feed it… otherwise have fun waiting
Just shoot the quetz with a netprojectile and lock it up in small Dino gates, knock it out and tame it
Ride on the back of a griffin and shoot while riding. This is how I tame my quetzals.
If you find one use a long neck rifle and you’ll need a a lot of tranq darts over 40 most likely
If you are having trouble finding one, go near the red obelisk and press tidy save on mobile wait a few minutes and one will pop up 95% of the time.
Quetz+(harpoon gun+net projectile)= PROFIT
The sinomacrops meathod seem easiest, except for quetz trap. Tame sino and ptera fly around to find on ptera, glide and shoot with sino. Once down build spike walls around him to protect from compys. Obtain and feed mutton in timely manner.
These days it's so easy to tame Quetzal, u just need harpoon launcher, net projectile, some dino gates(any variant will work) and your flyer that u can shoot from(griffin or tapejara).
1. Find your self a Quetzal that u like to tame ( watch where is he flying, because if he is over dangerous place it will die)
2. Get on your flyer
3. Come close to Quetz and shoot the net on him
4. Watch where he fall down and place dino gates(one on his neck, his feet and the middle of his body, u can add some more if u think it will help)
5. Now u can tranq it
And What next u know.
There are 3 ways to knock out a quetz in single player. 1 grapple onto your argy and whistle attake target onto the quetz the Argy is slow so won't catch up and attach the Argy. Tranq the quetz walst dangling below the argy.2 tame a Griffin. Griffin s are the only flying tame were you can shoot of the back off walst riding.(this is how I tamed my 180 Tek quetz.3 this is for gen2 players (or people with Tek suits) only. Follow the quetz walst flying with a Tek suit and trank until knocked. Hope this helps :)
I found one it zoomed away as I watched my tame poof I chased it knocked it out came back with tame food
raptor running off dead tame DAMN YOU RAPTORS YOU KILLED MY THERIZINO TAME TOO!?!?
Hop on a tapejara front passenger seat get it to attack the quetz and tranq it try and use tranq darts instead of arrows when the tapejara gets to point blank range set it to passive and continue tranqing it will flee towards the redwoods and black sands area so have about 15 wooden spike walls and or a cryopodded decent carnivore ( thyla rex spino allosaurs etc )
Just give it some prime meat or it’s kibble have some narcotics just in case and you just need to wait and by god kill all the carnivores nearby and watch out or your taming effectiveness is ruined
From my experience there are sometimes 2 on the Ragnarok map. They can be found around the beaver dams at redwoods and below the castle. As well as the snowy areas near those locations They also find their way into the scar rarely. If you are having trouble finding one they might be stuck on obstacles especially in the snow above the scar and trees and rocks in the redwoods.
They usually are found in the city on high parts.
Griffin /Harpoon/w net projectile trap tame very ez
Shoot it with a dodo arrow, then it will attack u. Now pew pew it until it sleep sleep
