Quetz+(harpoon gun+net projectile)= PROFIT
Quetzal
The Quetzal is a giant pterosaur and powerful aerial hauler. Its platform saddle can serve as a mobile base for transport and field operations.

How ARK players tame and knock out the Quetzal: what to feed it, what to knock it out with, and how to keep it safe.
The sinomacrops meathod seem easiest, except for quetz trap. Tame sino and ptera fly around to find on ptera, glide and shoot with sino. Once down build spike walls around him to protect from compys. Obtain and feed mutton in timely manner.
Griffin /Harpoon/w net projectile trap tame very ez
Just know while breeding them put them on passive or else they will fly away and get eaten by a giga
A way I’ve done it on mobile is jump off my flying tame and parachute down and grapple it then just KO it
U can freeze it with a snow owl and on the ground trap it with gates
Everone is saying to grappe the argy but why not grapple the quetx and put the argy on follow and pring a parachute so you don't die when it gets knocked (I haven't realy tested this but it should work pretty well).
Just shoot it out the sky with a harpoon net simple
You can use dodo arrow then make a bird cage that will only save your and yours bird but I consider using a tapejara the when the little bit of torpor is left it will fly away then chase it and tranq it BOOM
You have your self a Quetzal
To solo KO this dino, jump off your bird with grapple equipped, grapple onto your bird then whistle it to attack the quetz, when you are near, whistle 'stop all'. Switch to tranq darts and shoot, rinse and repeat... gl!
Get a snow owl and try to freeze the Quetzal on its back when you think it's in a safe area. It will fall and even walk for a bit. Try to surround or cover it with dinosaur gateways and it will get stuck.

This isn’t a how to tame, but rare flowers in ark ultimate survivor edition don’t agro tek wuetzals. I tried it three times and it didn’t care. Also when you attack quetzals they go to the redwoods. I attacked it trying to get it to land or go to a safe spot but it would keep going to the red woods. For those who don’t understand why or this pattern, it is called 50\50 flight. 50/50 are coordinates in the red woods that for some bug this creature has a high probability to go to this location when attacked.
Use Tapejara with tribemate or follow method (it’s all over here)

The easiest, EASIEST way to tame a Quetzal, is to go to a GEN 2 server, fly up to it yourself, shoot a net at it fall to the ground with and hit with tranq darts. Wash rinse repeat until ready to tame, then it's all down hill from there, unless there's a predator near by. Regardless of what you do, you need to prep before hand, bring a lit of Narco, tranq darts and food (dealers choice/ refer to doddex). Then it's all yours.
If you play duo grab your friend with Argent and chase Quetzal. I Recommend 2x Longneck rifle on higher level and second Argent on follow to fast swap when first gets tired. I broke one and almost second rifle on lvl135. 150 darts were enough even with some misses. Prepare to…
If you play duo grab your friend with Argent and chase Quetzal. I Recommend 2x Longneck rifle on higher level and second Argent on follow to fast swap when first gets tired. I broke one and almost second rifle on lvl135. 150 darts were enough even with some misses. Prepare to build trap with stone dino doors to protect him. Ours dropped near 145 alfa raptor… Rip Flying Truck. It was good Argent :(
For solo taming on ragnarock, step one tame a griffin, then find a Quetzal, then attempt to knock it out with either tranq arrows or darts. Make sure you kite the Quetzal away from any hazards such as the volcano lava or any Dinos that can kill it on the ground.
Lure them into a trap with rare flowers and a flying creature that either can outrun it or is faster than the quetzal
They usually spawn around red obelisk (on mobile). Use the tall rocks around the obelisk to your advantage, landing on them and shooting your darts/tranq.arrows from firm land. Bring about 5 to 6 parachutes too in case he flies away too far from the tall rocks and hills…
They usually spawn around red obelisk (on mobile). Use the tall rocks around the obelisk to your advantage, landing on them and shooting your darts/tranq.arrows from firm land. Bring about 5 to 6 parachutes too in case he flies away too far from the tall rocks and hills shooting range and you have to fly all the way over him and dismount. Be advised tho, when you're falling with the parachute, you need to aim rather carefully so you don't waste too much ammo.
Once it falls, be ready to fill it with meat and narcs. Having a quick-crafted mortar could prove very useful to maintain the beast asleep as you continuisly seek berries and craft more narcs. If available, a soothing balm can help tame it a lot faster.
Good luck and have fun!
Easiest way is to tame one in mobile is :
1 find a high
2 kill it
3 get the implant
4 build a trap in a revival platform
5 resurrect it with amber /just watch adds
6 knock and tame
Enjoy your quets
