Anyone else having trouble trying to ride this guy on Fjordur Single Player? I have both platform and regular saddle, but they both aren't working. Someone help?

Just a quick tip of was at my base at the mountain in the redwoods when I spotted him mid air and was pretty scary

If you are on crystal isles and you want a quetz the easiest way to knock it out is with a griffin because you can use weapons on it and you still have full control

bring 2 people, chain bolas and a ballista turret to raids to stop the gigas, also be careful to not hit the quetz. rip ernie

If you're on a cluster bring a snow owl and freeze it mid air and just surround the quetz with gates

Easy af if you have a tribe mate and tapejara just fly up to the quetz and let your probe just tranq is out make sure it’s not over water obviously

Get urself a griffin....tranq the quetz from the back of the griffin....raw mutton works best if you don't have kibble...tada...quetz

So this is funny and a tip but if you use a platform saddle build a flying base

If you with tribe mates just get either argy or pteranodon pick up your tribe mate and the tribemate who has been picked up just start tranqin out with any tranq ammo worked for me and now I have 2 high lv quetzals 🙂

I find that the best way to encounter these beings is by not having the equipment or dinosaurs to knock it. The level is determined by distance from your base/supplies (easier to get supplies=lower level).

In extinction get a snow owl and ice bomb the quetzals back ,it will freeze and fall to the ground then place some stone dinosaur gates and that’s a trapped quetzal

When knocking out a 150, use 80 tranq darts for a regular longneck rifle. Feeding gives 3.4 (No Balm) with prime meat. I didn't look at the time though.

I've seen a couple flying down near the southern beach, they like quite cool.

Screw flyers nerf, I'm just gonna boost the hell out of a proctodon

Get Griffin

Ride Griffin

Hold longneck with darts

Find Quetzal

Shoot Quetzal

Feed Quetzal

😳

If you forget were your quetzal is just request the creature i could have lots of dinos if i know that

To tame use a tapejara and use the chair button then shoot the Quatzal then let him run and once he unloads fly to him and he won’t be running away and just keep doing that and you will knock him or her out, they need a LOT of narcotics, hundreds really, and you can search for prime but leave the tapejara and put him on neutral so it can protect the quatzal, the quatzal is also nicknamed “lord of the skies” because he is the only flying Dino that can hold a platform saddle on the island map.

If you see a a lvl 10 or 20, and if you are only on 40 lvl with pterenedon and parachutes, jumb right above quetzal and hit at least 2 arrows each time. It will be k.o. in 10 to 20 arrows for real.

Or you can level up and use grappling hook. Take a pterenedon with low attack and high stamina, put some Wight on pterenedon to make it's speed same as quetzal. (Test it before flying by calling via whistle). Go above quetzal , open parachute and use grappling hook. Set the quetzal as target and you can change arrows to tranq and k.o. quetzal.

Keep your weight low only keep kibbles bio and tranq arrow in inventory and maybe some spikes in pterenedon because it may be slow when it is carrying you but once you choose quetzal as a target it will run neglacting your weight.

It's easier with a tippy or 2 players and another quetzal

The quetzal. The sign you have truly mastered travel. Long gone are the primitive days of rafts wading through shark infested seas, and of flying for ages to simply have to turn back to your base. The Quetzal IS your base. It’s quite sturdy, able to escape battle in a pinch, and can have armies of men and turrets atop it. You do not even need to fly this thing; put a chair on it, have it in its own whistling group, and simply order it where to go, meaning zero stamina drain. You can even have other flyers parked and ready for dispatchement, wether it be an army of fierce pteranodons or ferrying tapejaras or cargo-lifting argies, this bird is a fortress, airport, plane, and war machine.
