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.

Get onto a crystal wyvern and feed it crystals from it's back, once tamed, set to follow and when you find a quetz, get off the wyvern, you should be on it's back. From there you should shoot it, get back on the wyvern, and chase it. Repeat this process until tranced out.

The best way I found to tame this ugly thing was to get a griffin and sit in the back seat and whistle attack target and tranq it out but keep whistling at the quetzal or the griffin will fall

Easiest way to tame it alone is by closing distance with a flyer and using a crossbow with hooks to attach to it, then whatever weapon to knock it down.

I’ve already wrote one but because of word limit I couldn’t write more, after you tame the quetz find a high lvl quetz (I prefer 120 or above) and then make a platform saddle for your low lvl quetz, then make a quetz trap and get a high Stam on the low level, then go to…

I suggest waiting until your positive your prepared, good fur armor in case it flies into the snow and a decent weapon or mount for protection. Take extra narcotics and have your food already on you so you don't risk de-rendering your potential tame. I used a griffin with…

I've tried both aerial solo methods not using a Griffin.

A Tapejara, while harder to catch because of how skittish they are, takes much less resources. You can either land the Tape or use an Archaeopteryx to switch seats midair (then throw away your poor archae). Tape…

If you have access to a snow owl this will work. Bring four regular Dino gates ( metal stone wood whatever, it doesn’t matter), and bring your tranq rifle. Fly above the quetzal with the owl and freeze it. You and the quetzal will fall down to the ground. Then, quickly place…

I'd say one of the easyist way to tame this thing is to use a tapajara and rare flowers because then the quetz won't run away

If you kill a low lvl (low hp) and take the implant you can revive it in your base with a revival platform. Build a base around the platform so that he cant fly away when you revive it. I did it with a lvl 2 and I was done in 5 minutes. It took me 30 amber to revive it and 2…

If you don't have another Quetzal, the easiest way to tame it is to use Argentavis - Grappling hook strategy. Set up keys for attack this target and move to in settings. Then jump from Argentavis and hook onto him (do this at low altitude in case you fall). Then you just…

Don't wait until you're level 85 and is able to tame a griffin. Even though it is the easiest method to tame a quetz for the first time, its not worth the wait since Tapejaras exist. Make sure to fly high enough so that your tapejara don't automaticlly fly to the…

If you did find a quetzal and have a server of 2, you could use a Griffin to get it out of the sky but you can also use a argi and grapple to it to knock it out

Kill it- take it’s implant. Use revival platform and bola it once revived. Tranq it.

Get a friend pick em up with either and ergy or a petrodon with rly good steam and get to to shoot it in the head you could also try and see if they can jump onto its back and shoot it in the back of the head till it gets knocked out
