What are tips for quetzal? Tips and strategies for quetzal in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Alright, so you have a low level quetzal and now you want to build a trap to tame a higher level quetz. But you realize that in some darn way you can’t fit 6 foundations on the mobile quetz platform like in pc or like the youtube tutorial have said. Here what you’ll need if you want to build a trap with only 2 stone foundations, this is for mobile player who cannot place 6 foundations like me:
- 2 stone foundations
- 24 stone ceilings
- 18 stone doorframes
- 16 stone pillars
- 1 dino gateway (stone or wood works fine)
Now, start by placing down 2 stone foundations, then place the stone ceilings around it. If you do this correctly, you would have a 3x4 rectangle shape with the longer corner being by the quetzal’s wing area. On both the long corner, place 2 ceilings down in the middle. Now you should have a very scuff “+” shape. Place 4 pillar each on the ceilings you just placed and place doorframe on the corner of the trap. Place the rest of the ceilings on top. Now you should have a box with one side open, you’ll try to place down the stone gateway on this size when you have the quetz inside your box
I have run tested this 3 times, as i found 3 quetz in the same area. And this is how i got my lvl 100 female quetz
Good luck survivor, hope this help! ^^
Here's how I tamed a quetz solo
Got the kibble, narcotics and spike walls.
Put the argy on follow and grapple hooked it while it was hovering in the air
Switched to crossbow with tranq arrows.
Left bumper+down arrow to make it go where I was aiming.
Guided it to quetz and chased it around shooting tranq arrows.
Steered argy down to where quetz was knocked out.
Put up spike walls and tamed quetz.
I found another quetz on the way back a d tamed it too.
If you can’t find any check around Craggs island/Red obelisk.
If you don't have tapejara, you can craft parasutes, jump of a pteranodon or argentavis use parasutes and shooting in quetz(easy to do on mobile version of ark)
Just use a Griffin if your able to tame a Griffin
I found one of these guys at Far's peak, is that common?..
Up - Yes / Down - No
Just saw that new Jurassic park trailer, wildcard did these guys dirty.
My Spino yeeted this creature out of its cage
I literally found 2 gigas and a titanosaur before I found a single Quetzal 😢
When they spawn they won’t land ever again till their killed or tamed! So yah I have to explore the whole air space of ark help plz
If u go on front seat of tape and whistle attack on quetzal it will be one the easiest tames you ever done
They can be caught with a net from the net gun, makes knocking one out way easier
-Go Gen2
-Get a Harpoon gun with Netprojectile
-Net it and Shot in its Hair (A lot more damage)
-You have a Quetzal, congrats
Why do I keep seeing Quetzalcoatlus??? Are they common??? Are they more common than Giga???
This is how I tamed my qwesel sorry I’m a bad speller I got my tap and trank darts wiseled attack and hoped in the front darted it down by the swamp peaceful tame easy I was just paranoid
Just use a net gun to get head shot every time
I tamed one of these big birds and realized that I can’t watch other creatures while riding on it. I always need to grab out my spyglass and watch other creatures’ levels.
On valguero, I usually find them near the white chalk cliffs.
to track a quetzal you can put a tracker on a dimorphodon and have it attack, it won't catch up after the quetzal get's skittish
