Taming & KO Tips
How do I tame a quetzal? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a quetzal.
The fun way is to jump off and grapple to your argie and whistle it to attack and since argies are slow it won’t catch up in time so tranq till it goes out also bring parachutes and consider liking so more people will know
Idk why everyone makes this so complicated with all the grappling stuff all you have to do is,
1. Get or use a tapejara that’s a low level with a couple levels into movement speed
2. Get a rifle or crossbow with either darts or tranqs
3. Find a quetzal and then go to the back of your tapejara and set to attack the quetzal
(Since quetzals have high health and ur using a low level tapejara you can actually leave the tapejara to attack the quetzal, it’ll be fine)
4. Knock It out, not over water, and put whatever you want into it and ban you have a quetzal
Btw, you don’t need to worry about the tapejara’s stamina, it doesn’t decrease while you sit in the back seat
Guys this is the ersieht was to tame a quetzal. All you need is a tapejara.
1) Whisle your Tapejara to follow you
2) Ride you Tapejara and surch for a quetzal
3) When you found a quetzal, go an the back of the Tapejara (dont forget that you have to make the follow whisle on Tapejara, otherwise the will Flyer to the ground)
4) Make the attack whisle while you are on the Tapejata's back, so your tapejara will follow the quetzal.
5) Just shoot the quetzal with tranq darts/arrow and make the passive whisle on the Tapejara when he is too close to the Quetzal.
6) Repeat that till the quetzal gets knocked out and enjoy your quetzal taming.
TIPP: They spawn near the Obelisk and fly trought the whole map after spawning. GOOD LUCK!
Me and my friends attempted to tame a Quetzel in the funniest way possible since we didn't have a Tapejara. We decided that one will ride a pternadon and will grab the other one. Then we will chase a Quetzel. The guy that is grabbed will shoot the Quetzel. I was the one driving and my ark crashed. My friend got dropped from the sky and by some miracle made it on 3 health. I re-joined as fast asi could and was laughing out loud. I think people can actually use this method somehow but better then us lol.

On mobile you can go to red ob and do a tidy save that will make an quetz spawn on a small island in front of the ob.
Bro whoever said that god to red obelisk and do a tidy save and get a quetzel bruh my game gave me a titanosour instead of quetzel 🤣
If you manage to knock a quetzal out, try starve taming. If you never tried starve taming it’s just leaving a Dino’s hunger go to half way or lower and then you start feeding. I’ve done this many times and it’s very useful taming trick.
Use a tapejara, sit on the passager seat and set it on my target. Then make it fly to the quetz. Shoot the quetz with any sort of tranq ammo. Do this reapetly and you Have knocked quetz👌
How to tame a quetzal

2. Get 50 tranquilizers ammo you have
3. get 70+narcotics or 50+bio toxin
4.get on the tapejara
5.find a quetzal
6. Go in the passenger seat
7.command the tapejara to attack target
8. Shoot at the quetzal while chasing it until it’s knocked out
9. Harvest meat to feed the quetzal
10.keep feed it narcotics or bio toxin
11.protect it from any dangerous creatures
That’s how I got a quetzal
Important note !!
Quetz will not follow you if you eat a rare flower!
If you have any dodo arrows, make a trap (tutorials on YouTube) the shoot the quetzal with the dodo arrows. The quetzal will get triggered at you and lead it to the trap.
If you're rich af, just kill it, take the implant, set a trap on the revival platform, revive it then mag dump all your tranqs on this mf
To solo tame, grapple to an argentavis, and be ready to set your argentavis to passive and attack my target on command. Just maintain a process of having your argentavis chase the quetzal, when you get close enough set it passive, then fire a tranq dart/arrow. This is a long process, but it is by far the easiest way to solo tame, unless you already have a quetzal.

SOLO TAME
Bring:

How:
Put the honey in your hotbar (unstack them, so 1 in each slot)
Fly over him en throw the first honey on it’s body (press the hotkey from the honey and it will throw the honey) It will follow the honey that’s falling. Dino’s on the ground will eat the honey too so keep dropping honey until the quetzal is on the ground eating honey.
Place some dinosaur gates on top of him to get him stuck. Shoot it with tranq arrows and feed some prime meat
Easy solo quatzal tame
Enjoy
I know this is pretty common knowledge, but for the guys who always find the quetzal they're trying to tame in an area loaded with sabertooths, carnos, and rexes, all quetzals that are frightened will fly towards the coordinates 50, 50, every single time.
Thank y out too ok the person who said one ark mobile you can go to the red obisk and do a tidy save and on the small island were one of the obelisks pillars are a quetzal spawns
In Mobile just kill it and craft a revival platform and build an enclosure then revive it and knock it out
