I’m submitting this for the mobile players as soon as you reach lv 70 and complete the kill argentavis pursit build a revival platform and put a roof on to the revive platform. the quetzal you kill you will farm Amber to revive by date and time the you can finish the job with tranq arrows or tranq darts then tame with red kibble from the food work shop
They spawn near the Grand Canyon and the swampy moat on ragnarok
Make sure to calculate hom much nacotic darts u need to bring one down because it will take alot and if u can bring a cross bow with alot of tranq arrows
Guys, if you can get a buddy make a large cage on the platform saddle and find your quets, YOU HAVE TO AIR break in front of the quets facing it and it will get stuck then your buddy can do it safely, but being stimberrys with you to feed your flying quets to regain stamina I just tamed up a lvl 114 male that way in little then 2 hours
Get 2 players, an argee, a lot of tranq darts or arrows, and some luck. Me and my friend tamed one, we're going tu put a taming cage on it and tame more

Follow what he says easiest solo tame ever
Another way to solo tame a quetz is with a fast argy and scorpion, upgrade the Scorpions damage, and set it to aggressive, then get on the argy pick up the scorpion fly up to the quetz and after 1-30 hits (depinding on level multipliers, etc) the quetz is knocked out,
To Knock it out u can use a Flyer and grappling hooks
Best way is to tame a tapejara and fly on the top of it and shoot the quetzal untill it falls
If you have a Gryffon or any other flying mount that you can shoot from while riding, just stay close to it and pelt it with tranq darts/shocking tranq darts. They’re not very fast so they can’t escape a decently fast tame with good stamina.
One word for KOing this thing: Griffin. Super useful creature, the only flier you can use weapons whilst riding. Grab a crossbow and loads of tranqs, find a suitable quetzal, and go crazy! Just watch your stamina though!
If on ragnarock use a Griffin for a easy tame. Driver of the Griffin can shoot a crossbow so it is a possible solo tame
If you have buddies, a good Tapejara can keep up with the Quetzal and angle some really good shots for your friends with it's maneuverability. If not, you can ride a griffin while using a crossbow, hope this helps!
Platform saddle on a plesiosaur, add ballista turret and put chain bolas into it. A whole bunch of them.
Try and hit over land, then tranq him senseless with possible re-bola if he wakens.
Don't tame without a trap or a freind or else get a wyvern first even than it's really hard
Here's how to really knockout these guys in 4 words.
Harpoon
Gun
With
Netting
How to get your own jet turret flyer like tropegnathus jump off your argie and grappe to it argies are slow so they wont catch up tranq till it goes down feed it its preferred rex kibble and boom you got yourself a quetzal then unlock its platform saddle and put minigun turret on his back
hey. does anyone just plain out grapple this and shoot it ko. you might need parachute for when it falls bc its ko
All you need is a tek suit, a harpoon launcher, and some net projectiles to get one of these bad boys out the sky
