Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a quetzal? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a quetzal.
Just use a Griffin if your able to tame a Griffin
If u go on front seat of tape and whistle attack on quetzal it will be one the easiest tames you ever done
They can be caught with a net from the net gun, makes knocking one out way easier
-Go Gen2
-Get a Harpoon gun with Netprojectile
-Net it and Shot in its Hair (A lot more damage)
-You have a Quetzal, congrats
This is how I tamed my qwesel sorry I’m a bad speller I got my tap and trank darts wiseled attack and hoped in the front darted it down by the swamp peaceful tame easy I was just paranoid
Just use a net gun to get head shot every time
I tamed one of these big birds and realized that I can’t watch other creatures while riding on it. I always need to grab out my spyglass and watch other creatures’ levels.
to track a quetzal you can put a tracker on a dimorphodon and have it attack, it won't catch up after the quetzal get's skittish
Solo tame a Quetz while riding a griffin. Make sure its stamina is high. Bring lots of tranq darts.
step 1:get rare flowers
step 2:get tanky dino
step 3:lead it away with flyer after eating flower
step 4:get on tank and shoot it in thehead with crossbow and narc arrows
If your really good you can jump off an argue grapple it and make it attack the quetzal but it won’t get it cuz it’s to slow then just tranq it that’s how I did it in asa. Credit to someone else who this exact comment
Rare flowers do not have a rage effect on mobile!
Wild Quetzals do not land, therefore use the tapejara strategy to tame this guy
Noobs tame dinos with cooked prime meat
Pro tames dinos with prime meat
Legends tames dinos with kibble
Decide what will you take
Best way to tame a quetzal is to eat rare flower so he follows you and just lead it to the trap.
Use a net projectile it works on them.
My quetzal, thalia, is a brilliant utility mount, great for transporting large dinos like megatheriums to the obelusks for boss fights. Grab a friend and a grappling hook for an easy K.O
Solo-taming a Quetzal has never been easier. Bring a flyer, grapple onto the Quetzal, ready your net gun (Yes, they work on a Quetzal!) Wait for the Quetzal to be over flat ground then net it. Follow it down then build a simple birdcage with dino doorways. Super simple and now you have a trapped Quetzal to tranq away!
Federation Suit on Genesis Part 2 makes taming these big guys a breeze. Just fly alongside and aim for the head. Recommend a high damage crossbow or longneck with shocking darts for a quicker knockout. Just be careful about where they land. Everything likes Quetz meat.
So if u r on gen 2 use a bird to hop onto the quiz and tranq from on top. This method did not work on other maps because of the lack of tek armor but with tek feet u can stand on the side of cliffs and the qutzels
