A fun way that I found to tame one of these:

What you need:

* an argy or PT

* some parachutes

*harpoon gun (w/net Projectile)

*tranq darts/shocking tranqs

Since these guys don't like to land, I found this strategy to be pretty affective for taming. I guess you could also wait for the quetzal to get a little too close to land, but that could take a while. Just find a quetzal, then fly a little bit over it with your flyer. (Make sure your flyer is set to follow you so it's not stuck high up in the air if you miss the first time.) Then you jump off your flyer, use a parachute to get closer, and then hit the quetzal with the net projectile. In my experience, the quetzal shouldn't take fall damage from the fall. Then all you have to do is float down to where it fell, tranq it out and tame! Easy as pie.

Use a tape jars and a tribe mate use a net after attacking it into a safe area go down and trank it in the head then feed exceptional kibble congratulations you have a flying fortress

If on mobile I recommend use a griffin because you can use weapons on its back if you can't take a griffin use a tapjara it's saddle has a backseat you can use weapons just make sure you keep it on follow so it doesn't land and whistle it to attack the Quetzal if the tapjara gets to close for comfort to the Quetzal whistle passive then continue until it's out cold

Using raw meat and raw prime meat but they're hard to find

Net Gun with at least 20-30 nets. Head shots with high damage% dart gun. Bring Narcotics, Metal spikes, and a lawn chair. This is gonna take a min.

If you have a griffin or tapejara taming it isn't a problem its just a matter of finding one on mobile its one of the more rare creatures I would say near red, green and blue obelisk you will have the most chance of finding one.

I used a tapejara .set it on follow.Then it won't go down

-My first tip

-How to get a high level quetzal on ark mobile

1) First, go to red obelisk and find a quetzal. then if it's a low level, then attack it and let it fly away of render distance

Fly some distance from red obelisk

Then open settings and click tidy save option

It will spawn a new quetzal

Beware :( All creatures not tamed will despawn )

2) Use this trick to find a high level quetzal Then tame it with a tapejara, Use the passenger seat ( Make sure the tapejara is followin you) Then whistle attack target the quetzal then use crossbow or longneck to knock it down, then tame it...

Quick tip : (it will deaggro if it is not rendered)

Easiest way for solo tame is with a Griffon.

To tame a quetz, you need longneck rifle, tapejara.

Find the quetz you want in red obilisk,

seat in the passenger seat in the tapejara,

Shot the quetz the best rifle or your crossbow,

Be careful if you drop the quetzal in a alpha creature, giga, swamp, water then go home and give up.

I’m seeing comments about stuff like riding a tapejara and whistling it but legit just net gun it or freeze it with a snow owl and then trap it while it’s frozen

Easy way to tame this big guy is kill it and take the implant and revive under a cage in oblisk it take around 45amber to revive just a choice if u suck at arge grabling wishile taming method like me

Looking for a Quetzal to tame? Go to red obelisk me and my cousin found 11 over there.

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!

Not sure why there are so many tips on taming these things. It's harder to find them, then tame them. Simply tranq from a Rhyniognatha and follow them down, once they fall. Problem is they don't render unless you're right up on them.

Find a low lvl first then tame it and build a trap on it then go find a high level and fly in front of it and stop and then place the gate on the back end

Yo, I’m on mobile, and my quetzal disappeared into oblivion. Like, I can’t request him or unclaim him in the tame menu. Does anyone know how I can get him back?

Use the net projectile on it. It'll work. (Genesis 2 map has this engram to learn).

The net ties it up and it falls to the ground where you can knock it out. Have fun!

Maybe use rare flowers if you want it over a certain area. IDK.

I’d say the easiest way to tame a quetz is a griffins
