For taming your first quetz your going to need a fast high stamina pteradon or argentavis. One person flies while one person shoots. Once you've knocked it out tame it with whatever your using to tame it. An easier way is to have an existing quetzal with a platform saddle. You build a quetzal trap on the platform (look it up on YouTube if you don't know how). You trap the quetzal, putting walls behind it so it doesn't escape. You knock it out and tame it. This way is easier and safer, since your taming the quetzal on your quetzals back in the sky. And when you try to knock it out it doesn't run away

Besides using a tapejara, you could use a quetz catcher. You can google this for photos. Basically, if you have a quetz, or someone you know does, you can build a catcher on the back (thatch is fine). After "catching" (making it fly into the catcher) the quetz, jump off the quetz onto the platform saddle and add some walls in the open spaces (where it flew into). Then, you can shoot it with darts or arrows till it's down. Or, you can have a friend shoot at it from another bird/platform.

First if possible have someone on a server who already has a Quetzal(and a platform saddle) that will be willing to help you by building a box shape on the platform leaving the back open, next fly in front of the Quetzal having it fly into the box then put the back walls on completing the box and making it so the Quetzal is trapped, after that fly closer to the ground in a safer area and proceed to knock it out after it unconscious take the back walls off and have the person with the starting Quetzal fly forward let the Quetz to fall onto the ground so you can begin taming!

All you need is a tek suit, a harpoon launcher, and some net projectiles to get one of these bad boys out the sky

Guys use pulmono max damage and an argy with good stamina, then you won’t have to spend all ur time trying to find Tapejaras and crafting tranq darts

I have 3 female quetzal what should I do with them up to make a egg farm with them or down to tame a male and breed them

For the person who gave their Quetz potent dust.

Potent dust does had low chance to cause someone or a Dino to get knocked out, which the thing happened to me when I'm painting my beaver white then it just fainted and fell down the cliff.

So whoever consumes potent dust for levels or painting their Dino's, look out.

Bring stimulants before you eat sand, just in case. It's not coarse, it's not rough, and it's not irritating - but it does clog up your nose, 'addictive', get you high enough to the point of fainting, because Rockwell said to consume the dust is to inhale it.

This isn't my tip, I havent even tamed one of these things yet. But my friend told me, use a dodo arrow, while someone with a griff or quetz with platform saddle brings you up to a wild quetz, hit it with the arrow, land, and proceed to knock it out. Dodo arrows aggro passive creatures.

Just get a revive platform make a trap around it muder the querzal take its implant go to the platform with your trap then find out you don't have enough amber

The last time I tried to get quetzal I accidentally deleted my ark survival evolved then I had to redownload it then well I lost all my work and my question Rex's and literally everything around if you have a phone tablet or computer that you're playing ark survival evolved on make sure to lock it to your brother doesn't get into it

In so glad that Quensel has a platform saddle

Just use console cheats and fly to the quetzal and trank it till it's down it's ez as that ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I'm pretty sure you can bait it to come down with honey and then you can just net it or trap it with dino gates and then get to taming it but be careful because other creatures will also get attracted so be sure to bring a decent amount of honey with you.

You can grapple onto them making it much easier

Kill it- take it’s implant. Use revival platform and bola it once revived. Tranq it.

Get a platform saddle and a tek Force field and build on its back and place turrets so when people try to kill the quetzal while your offline the turrets will kill the or knock the off their tames

I have seen one by the red obelisk was quite hard to tame kept going over the water and swamp (I leave near red obelisk just tamed one believe it's hard to tame one I used argy).

I found a quetzal near the snowy waterfall. It spawned before my eyes.

I’m submitting this for the mobile players as soon as you reach lv 70 and complete the kill argentavis pursit build a revival platform and put a roof on to the revive platform. the quetzal you kill you will farm Amber to revive by date and time the you can finish the job with tranq arrows or tranq darts then tame with red kibble from the food work shop

Usually found these in redwood near red obelisk
