People make the taming process sound hard , just get a Griffin or a tapajara , I prefer Griffin, I fly with the griffin and shoot trans at the quetzal , might fly halfway across the map but its easy

Having a good farming Quetzal and a good War Quetzal is a game changer! For ur 1st Quetzal I would get a low lvl Quetzal using Tapejaras or Argys and hold someone with the Argys feet to shoot traq darts at the Quetzal. Than use ur low lvl Quetzal to build a trapper to get higher lvl Quetzals!!!

Three stepped method of how to tame a high level quetzal on mobile solo:

1. Tame a tapejara and pump its speed

2. Fly up to a quetzal (preferably low level female) on your tapejara, get on the passenger seat, whistle your tapejara to attack the quetzal and start tranqing. Whistle passive if your tapejara gets too close. When the quetzal goes down, quickly secure the area. You can use spiked walls. Once you get your first quetzal, pump speed, stamina, and maybe weight.

3. Kill every quetzal you see until a high level one spawns. Put a platform saddle on your low lvl quetzal, build a 3x3x3 box on its back with one side opened. Fly ahead of the high lvl quetzal and wait for it to enter the box. Then build walls/doorframe to complete the box and now you have a trapped high lvl quetzal and you can tranq it. However, once knocked out, the quetzal will most likely glitch through and fall to the ground, so make sure you avoid trapping quetzals over dangerous areas or water.

Just got a lvl 194 female quetzal like this.

Get a tapejara and switch seats and get close then shoot

Tamed my first today. Used my tapejara, flex tapejara to knock him. I used a soothing balm ( ark mobiles) and had a quetzal. I gave him the saddle I got from the hunt argy pursuit and slowly flew home.

Get a desmodus and fly around and find a queztel. You can use any weapon while riding it so use your crossbow and tranqz and knock it out. Easy.

Tapejara fly close as you can swap seats fire rinse repeat! ( obviously if low level Tapejara focus chilli recommend)

Putting it to sleep with Tapejaras is the easy part. The hardest part is to get it to land on safe grounds when it collapses. Almost anything can kill it if ur area is not good.

There are many ways to tame a queaztal but one of the easiest ways is to get a friend get a tapajara and one of you follow the queaztal and the other person tranqs it on a passenger seat

You can net a quetzal but before you do clear the area of any hazards and hop on you creature and bet it (Make sure you don’t shoot it when it is asleep because when is has the bet on it looks like it’s asleep)

Lure them into a trap with rare flowers and a flying creature that either can outrun it or is faster than the quetzal

The real easiest way is to just shoot at it from the back of a griffin. Easy and efficient

You can net a Quetzal, up this that everyone can see this

PS: that makes the taming part soooo much easier

If your on rag just use a griffin it makes it so easy.if you don't have one, grapple a flyer and whistle it around

Try to tame a low level one and save up for a platform saddle and make a quetzal trap then find another and damage it and ease it in for easy quetzals

One of the easiest way to tame these guys on fjordur, is to bring a desmodus, and use tranq arrows or darts. You can also bring a harpoon launcher to net projectile it, so it gets knocked off the sky (yes, you can shoot while sitting on a desmodus) hope this helps!

If you already have a quetzal build a trap on it with a trapdoor on the top. Fly infront of the wild quetzal and make it fly inside. Unmount at a slight angle and the wild quetzal will get stuck. Now you can stand there mid flight and tame it.

Notice:

1 dont move your quetzal or the wild one could slip out, even when asleep.

2 add gates and a ramp to lure in ground animals.

3 gate to the front to trap smaller birds (just fly faster than them and "net" them like a jellyfish.

4 add ceilings around the trap as a platform to move on.

5 build the trapdoor and front gate in a way so they are open while you are flying (auto open and close).

6 add a ramp or path so you can get to your quetzal and mount it while flying.

Personally i added a fridge and bed to store kibble and let me spawn there.

Easiest way to tame this giga bird is

Ingredient require longneck rifle with 50 tranquilizing dart and ate a tapejera

Step 1 - find this Bird it lurks around the red oblique in ark mobile 100% guaranteed

Step 2 - go to the second seat on the middle seat in tapejera

Step 3 - target qyatzal ( now your tapejera should start attacking it )

Step 4 - start hitting it with your rifle

Step 5 and the last - knock it and tame it

Here is your quatzel

If you knockout Quetzal and it drops into water, know two things: 1 it’s gonna drown if u don’t get it out, and 2 if it does drown take implant and resurrect it try again..

Followed it on my pt and when it flew down to the ground and got stuck in a wall I placed multiple stone Dino gates on him and ko’ed him.
