Quetz usually spawn at red obelisk, if you don't see one wait a few minutes for t to spawn. If you are looking for a high level kill the lower level one so it another can respawn

For 'The Center' map the common spawn locations tend to be near any obelisk, as well as around 55,45 or cruising around the entirety of Jungle South. It's worth checking around lava island too.

Low levels seem to spawn neared red obbi on the island. If you're looking for one, head over there

There is usually at least one quetz roaming around the red obelisk and craggs Island. Go over there and kill any and all quetzals that aren't of your liking, and then fly to above the nearby swamp or The end of the red lake (or further). Then fly back and be sure to check above the beach area between craggs and the obelisk which is separated to craggs by a thin water path. If no quetzal has spawned there then look around and west of the obelisk. If no quetzal has been found in either area then try flying further away or waiting 10 sec before going back. This method works especially well on evolution event which is when I've mostly tried it. Good luck!

If you tame this cooked fish meat your a god and deserve a medal

Personally I find the highest levels to be spawning in between half burnt and north tropical (center) and near the snow mountains (island)

On ragnarok they spawn in the lava and snow areas mainly around 41.0 51.0

I've found all mine at the volcano and redwoods on the island

On Ragnarok, I've found some close to the blue obelisk, near the border (where the map ends until they release the rest of the map).

These bad boys spawn around many different areas such as they are sometimes close to blue oby rarely but the are mostly around red oby(there sometimes near volcano)

They aren’t always near obelisks. I have been searching for one for days now, have circled the island many times and even done a server reset and have yet to see one near an obelisk. The 2 I did find were near the redwoods and died upon KO due to a troodon pack

Usually one by red ob. If it's a low lvl, kill it, come back in a few minutes and another should have spawned

On the center quetzels spawn at blue and red obelisks, they also spawn in jungle mid

I’ve found quetzals around the river dividing the volcano from the redwoods and the island next to the red obliesk. But you have to go to a certain height to get them to spawn

Quetzals will most likely spawn inbetween Craggs Island and the Red Obelisk, around 85,20, its spawn is just above the river that flows through the side of the island

Are there any specific coordinates for encountering quetz? I really need 1

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

Since I tried to catch second quetzal with quetzal trap (mobile), it no longer to get stuck in the trap, it will fly through the trap. Thumbs up if ark mobile player agree

From my experience there are sometimes 2 on the Ragnarok map. They can be found around the beaver dams at redwoods and below the castle. As well as the snowy areas near those locations They also find their way into the scar rarely. If you are having trouble finding one they might be stuck on obstacles especially in the snow above the scar and trees and rocks in the redwoods.

They usually are found in the city on high parts.
