What are tips for quetzal? Tips and strategies for quetzal in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
I’ve seen two. In my entire life I’ve seen two.
They are FAST on mobile when wild when fast they be like…🐢
Tame a Tape! Tame a Tape! Yeah that’s what I did not do. Instead, I tamed a Griffin which I find easier because it chases you (instead of a fast flee) and you can easily trap it in a stone pillars. Mine was at a lower level so I could knock it out with around 40 tranq arrows. Then I found myself a Queztal and just shot it in the head a few times. I would make sure that the area surround the uncon Queztal was safe by killing carno Dinos with the Griffin.
How do u get tranq arrows on mobile?
If you have a harpoon launcher with a net projectile, it will cause the Quetz to land if low enough to the ground and then shoot it with a couple of tranq darts or shocking tranq darts to knock it out and then feed it lots of meat until it is tamed and then use a Wyvern to use it’s wing attack to send aggressive dino’s away from it. Also bring a cyropod so you can freeze it if you are away from your base
To tame a quetzal you will need a tapejara and some kind of tranquilizers. Locate a quetzal and then sit on the front seat of the tapejara. Whistle attack target and start shooting when close. If too close whistle passive. Do this over and over and you are able to tame a quetzal.
To find a good one it’ll take hours
They are very hard to find I’ve only seen one in my meany survival ark worlds lol寥㙕墅旲凈刍斸冂屙羽阌屙═轛刷乬羽耷冂亅鷣亠聽
I see a lot of good advice for how to tame these in the air, excluding just shooting from the back of a Griffin which is incredibly easy, but the easiest way by far is with a Pteranadon and Rare flowers.
Find the Quetzal you want
Build a quick trap underneath it
Fly up to the Quetzal and eat a rare flower
Lead it into the trap
Profit
I used my griffin, Ilana, to tame one. Go IIana.
These thing LOVE TO SPAWN NEAR GIGAS
I do the grapple to your argy Methed then it falls by giga so I kill the giga like I always do with spinos and rexes beacause it’s easy with flying mount but this dude had lots of health so the quetzal woke up before I finished the fight
NOW I CANT FIND ANY QUETZALS AND I NEED ONE!!!
Me: sees quetz flying super close to the ground
Me: NOOOOO I HAVE NOTHING TO TAME IT WITH!!
(for mobile) get an argie and level it to 135 to 145 movement
And here's what you need
- multiple grapples
- crossbow
- long neck (or crossbow)
- tranq darts/tranq arrows/toxicant arrows
- (optional) 10x soothing balm
- 3-20ish rex kibble (or prime meat at least 30)
- multiple parachutes
-(optional) spike walls (to protect it)
Now find your quetzal go next to it jump off your argie deploy your parachute then grapple to your argie whistle attack target at the quetzal shoot the quetzal with your tranq ammo of choice your argie will follow the quetzal and try to attack if your argie gets to close whistle passive then again attack target once far away enough. Once it goes down get on your argie and fly down to it as fast as you can so it doesn't get attacked by other dinos (make sure it does not fall in water)
then remote use your balm give it the kibble or prime meat protect it and then enjoy your quetzal! (Saddle level 76)
Or buy a tannery with 50 amber then get more cures with more amber if you don't feel like waiting to get the levels
Thank you for reading! :D
Get agriffin you can shoot off their backs
Use a weak weapon every time I try I kill it
Just take a argy pick up a tamed scorpion set to aggressive and let nock it out note make sure you have enough stam
It has now been 4 days and I still haven’t found a quetzal. I checked the mountains twice each, the obelisks twice each and all the beaches. PLEASE HELP.
Red woods are where I hide
Though I often elude your eyes look up not down or I'll scare the crap out of you with my massive shadow lol
