If taming solo, use grappling hooks, parachutes if necessary, tranqs, and a bird. Grapple to the bird high up in the air and have a spyglass and whistle attack this target, when close whistle passive then shoot. Repeat

Has a high carry weight, and a platform saddle allowing you to gather metal very efficiently with an ankylo, plus after u collect your metal u can refine it and craft it into things you need on the quetz instead of flying back to base and wasting time

SINGLE PLAYER TAMING - Grab a high level Argy with high stamina and a lot of grappling hooks, use your spyglass to look at the quetz and press attack, until you get close. When you get near the quetz, press U to stop it attacking, jump off your bird and shoot it with the grappling hook, make your bird attack the quetz, then switch to a second Xbow or long rifle with tranqs, aim for the head when you get close, and if your argy gets too close, simply press U! Rinse and repeat, it may take some time to get used to doing the grappling hook to the argue, but after that, it's easy! Good luck, happy taming!!

TL;DR

1) Get a good Argy

2) Find a quetz

3) Jump off the Argy and shoot it with a grappling hook

4) use the spyglass to attack the Quetzal

5) when you get close, press U to stop the Argy hurting the Quetz

6) switch to a secondary tranquilliser weapon

7) Aim for the head

8) Rinse and repeat until it falls!

Enjoy your Quetz!

Why not just get on a flyer and throw a chain bola at it

Quetz: I am the slowest creature alive! Yet I’m seemingly impossible to tame.

Can’t you just grapple it and use another crossbow or tranq shooting gun and dangle from the quetzal and shoot it with tranqs, is that a thing, tell me pls

You know why you need to tame one of these.

After the nerf they are so slow! There only good for the platform saddle

I found one dead next to a Rex, so I chopped it up.

Annoying little beeping animals I had on level one and a small annoying creatures attack it and my eagle kill it and I was very angry about that

Kill the quet but down get the body, get the thing in the body then res. It but build a trap first before you res it then boom Mobile here

This is not a tip it is a question. On the island other than the red obelisk where can I find them bc I can't find any at the red obelisk

it low key sucks and is a waste of anyone precious time

I feel extremely lucky to have a million quetzal spawnpoints near my base, they are great for transportation, taming and just about everything. They are a must have tame if you can afford the tranks, food, and search time.

I don't know if this works but I have a genius idea!make a giant box on a quetzal big enough for a behemoth and connect ramps to it and boom you can carry big things on its back vote if it works

You can use rare flowers to lure the quetzal your taming to a trap and make sure no other dinos are in the area of your trap

I think I just saw a Quetzal on the ground.

Found by red and green obelisk and the volcano

Am I weird for taming this thing by just flying, landing, shooting, and then flying after it again?

Up for yes

Down for no
