1Find quetzel

2 kill quetzel

3 get artifact implant

4 build trap on Revive platform

5 have 20 Ancient amber or more depending on lvl

6 knock it out while it's still inside your trap

7 Give Rex kibble and done

THIS IS THE EASIEST WAY BUT THE EXPENSIVE WAY TO

The fun way is to jump off and grapple to your argie and whistle it to attack and since argies are slow it won’t catch up in time so tranq till it goes out also bring parachutes and consider liking so more people will know

Idk why everyone makes this so complicated with all the grappling stuff all you have to do is,

1. Get or use a tapejara that’s a low level with a couple levels into movement speed

2. Get a rifle or crossbow with either darts or tranqs

3. Find a quetzal and then go to the back of your tapejara and set to attack the quetzal

(Since quetzals have high health and ur using a low level tapejara you can actually leave the tapejara to attack the quetzal, it’ll be fine)

4. Knock It out, not over water, and put whatever you want into it and ban you have a quetzal

Btw, you don’t need to worry about the tapejara’s stamina, it doesn’t decrease while you sit in the back seat

you can get an eerie version of this in mobile singleplayer using

- a tek kibble processor

- an implant of a quetzal (doesn't matter if its chronicled, dead, unclaimed)

-1 eery element

-some kibble

-common sense

step one: get a quetzal implant

-common knowledge, either kill a quetzal, or chronicle a tamed one

step two: get at least 1 eery element, some high quality kibble, and a tek kibble processor

-you can get a tek kibble processor *blueprint* from certain chests in dungeons, if it is one of the primary rewards listed on the "view rewards" tab

-you can get eery element by killing a dungeon boss

-recommended you use kibble from eggs of large creatures, like rex, spino, bronto, theri

-after you have built a tek kibble processor (fairly expensive), put the implant, kibble, and eery element inside it

step 3: save scumming

-this is where common sense kicks in, there is a mechanic of ark mobile singleplayer called "manage save file", you can find it below the button where you play singleplayer mode in the menu

- you can save your progress on one save, and if the tek kibble processor consumes the quetzal implant, restore your save file and try again

-it is a 1% chance of turning the implant into an eerie one, once a menu pops up that says "something erry happened" you now have an eery quetzal implant and you can now revive/recall your quetzal using a revival platform/obelisk

Guys this is the ersieht was to tame a quetzal. All you need is a tapejara.

1) Whisle your Tapejara to follow you

2) Ride you Tapejara and surch for a quetzal

3) When you found a quetzal, go an the back of the Tapejara (dont forget that you have to make the follow whisle on Tapejara, otherwise the will Flyer to the ground)

4) Make the attack whisle while you are on the Tapejata's back, so your tapejara will follow the quetzal.

5) Just shoot the quetzal with tranq darts/arrow and make the passive whisle on the Tapejara when he is too close to the Quetzal.

6) Repeat that till the quetzal gets knocked out and enjoy your quetzal taming.

TIPP: They spawn near the Obelisk and fly trought the whole map after spawning. GOOD LUCK!

Use a tapejara, sit on the passager seat and set it on my target. Then make it fly to the quetz. Shoot the quetz with any sort of tranq ammo. Do this reapetly and you Have knocked quetz👌

If you manage to knock a quetzal out, try starve taming. If you never tried starve taming it’s just leaving a Dino’s hunger go to half way or lower and then you start feeding. I’ve done this many times and it’s very useful taming trick.

To the guy who gave specific areas to find these guys on mobile, thank you very much. You’re right… that strip of land in front of craggs island, and the spike directly behind the red obelisk. Kill it and take its implant, and revive it on a platform with an enclosure around it. I’m literally doing just that right now. Happy taming! :D

I am so mad I had made kibble and got narcotics and saw a black quetzal and I tried have my tapejara follow it and it would not follow I had her on you target and she would not budge then I just tried shooting it and then try and chase it down but it would just take to long can anyone tell me why my tapejara won’t follow the quetzal?

Important note !!

Quetz will not follow you if you eat a rare flower!
