What are tips for quetzal? Tips and strategies for quetzal in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Tranq arrows/darts + Griffin ----> The Quetz is yours
(MOBILE)
Travel to Red Obb
Press Tidy Save, one should spawn in. If not desired lvl travel Out of its render zone and press tidy save again.
Repeat until you get the lvl you want
Taming quetzal then: *Intense sweating and shooting*
Taming quetzal now: haha net gun go brr
You can find these things near the red woods,mountains, and red obilisk in ark ascended
rhyniognatha and a cross bow will work
On Ragnarok map they fly low and get stuck on terrain easily. Grab a Griffin and you should be able to solo tame easy.
Often spawns at the world origin point (0,0) on the island, also around the green obelisk. CAN be chain bola'd although the options for doing this are somewhat sketchy. To solo tame you will either need to goad it into a trap as it flees, use a tapejara and dismount into the second saddle, or ride a paraceretherium or bronto w/ ballista turret attached up the mountain to try and trap it that way. You can also grappling hook onto a slow flyer like argentavis and shoot it with tranqdarts that way!
When you tame a quetzal it will be easier to find one but for those who doesn't know where quetzal its spawn near the red obelisks at the beach or the water i have 5 quetzal hopes this helps
If you're taming on Gen2, just follow it until it's over a mountain. Net it down at mountain peaks, where danger dinos don't spawn
my quetzal keeps flying to the red woods wtf??
Make sure to bring a soothing balm helps a lot
U really dont need to use hook. U need a tapejara. When u find a quetzal u should change seats and make ur tapejara attack to quetzal by whistle. U will knock it out when tapejara chases it.
For solo tame grapple your argie then instead of having to mess with attack and passive use the follow my target button and just aim for the quetz this will take a long time but no damage will be done to the quetz by your argie
Quetz like to spawn near the red obelisk, but I have found by following them that they take the same route to the red woods back to the red obelisk, I have followed 7.
Pretty hard to tame, was chasing a level 50 female for about 2 hours and I just gave up. I also only had tranq arrows and did not have a way to make it fly to the ground. I would like a good easy method to tame without making it a pain to do.
A method I find easy to solo tame a quetzal is using a desmodus. Tame a desmodus with decent stam and since you can shoot off the back of a desmodus you just chase the quetzal around and shoot it occasionally. The only method that's ever worked reliably for me.
