Ive read a few of these tips... Why aren't people using a griffon to shoot from it while flying? I just did that easily they aren't fast flyers. Only downfall was it fell on trees and even after cutting trees down it stayed in mid air... Then for some reason when i need griff to stay stationary while i exit.. It doesnt want to stay still.. And sinomacrops and opening up inventory doesnt work fast enough either lol I just gave up and went to sleep.

Get a revival platform with a big enclosure around it, and then kill a lower level for its implant, and then revive it in the enclosure and tame it. You might have to save up a few amber(this is mobile I’m talking about), but that’s fine. If it’s available, do the tame quetzal pursuit and target your quetz, and it won’t be a low level anymore.😉

I recommend watching a YouTube video on how to use and argentavis and a grappling hook to tame this

USE TAPIJERA

1. GO NEAR QUZTEL CHANGE SIT

2. TAKE OUT YOUR LONGNECK RIFLE

3.SHOOT TRANQ DARTS OR SHOKING TRANQUIL DARTS

Solo taming is a ton easier now with a Tapejara. Fly near to the quetz, get off, get in the front passenger seat and whistle attack target on the quetz. Get your tranqs out and shoot it down with ease! (Also it's an exciting chase around the map, though on PvP you might have to watch out for enemy bases)

This is for a quick and kind of ez tame for mobile players (i recommend longneck with darts)

1st step Tame a Tapejara (i recommend to level it up first and put some speed)

2nd step look for a quetzal (bring soothing balm and rex kibble for easier tame)

3rd step after u found a quetz, save your game in one of the save slots (mobile only i think)

4th step whistle the tapejara to attack & change to the passenger seat

5th step tame

(Bring some prime if your taming a highlevel or more kibble)

Ride a flying mount... Anything- pterandon, argy, pelagornis, tapejera... You don't even need to ride it... Just shoot it with a grappling hook and order it go to a specific location, you can do this continuously by whistling it to fly you around... As long as you're grappled to it, you can use any melee weapon... This works for literally any monster that you want to tame, but don't want to get close too... Just hover above your target and shoot at it... No building traps or standing on cliffs... The sky is the limit... It took me a year to figure this out... I've never seen anybody do it on YouTube or anywhere else, but I did it today on a vanilla official server... I tamed my first quetzal and named it Pretzel... It's torpor drains really quick so I kept it sedated with a combination of berries and narcotics... I fed it prime meat and mutton... YW

Ride a Griffin then take out a rifle . Shoot it then keep following it entail it stops runing then shoot again and again entill it's knocked out . Also if on ragnorok look for it in the wyvern trench or proferably in the ice regions but watch out for yutyranuses !

These guys are annoying to knock out so make sure it's protected as when I knocked mine out it had 38 health and a bloody bug killed it

With the rhynio now in ark ascended, the pretzel is way easier to tame. You can shoot off of the back of the rhynio so once you find the quetzal you can tranq it and lead it where you want it to go.

Once you knock it out it’s a simple tame

Want to tame one of these? Well, you came to the right place! These guys are pretty hard to tame. (Took me a month to find one) Here is a guild on how to tame one:

What You need to pack:

50 tranq arrows or 30-40 tranq darts

1crossbow or 2 crossbows or 1-2 Longneck rifles

50 raw prime meat or more

200 raw meat

500 narcotics just in case

Grappling hooks

What tames you might need:

Tapejara with its saddle ( 3 seater)

Argy with its saddle

Way number 1 ( I did it this way)

Hop on your argy and look for a quetzal (They usually spawn around the red obelisk near some islands)

Since Quetzals never land, look in the air for one.

Once you found one, Jump from your argy and grapple it. You may want to practice before you try to tame the quetzal. Whistle attack on the quetzal and hit it with tranq ammo. Feed it meat and there you go!

Way 2

To make this way short, do the same this as with the argy but use a tapejara and sit on the extra seats. Tranq it and feed it meat!

(MOBILE) My way how I tamed a quetzal is:

I found a quetzal arround the green obelisk

Then I killed it with my argy (don't harvest quetzal)

Then took his implant from him

Placed revival platform and built thatch things arround, so he cant escape

Then I knocked with tranq.

You can bring ur friend so he can help u tame it, with Tapejara, Argentavis, Pteranodon,

With Tapejara, ur friend controls Tapejara and you sit on the back and knock out the quetzal

With Argentavis, your friend picks you up with Argentavis and then he flies to Quetzal and you try to knock it

With Pteranodon, same like with Argentavis

-Hope this helped.

Tame it using a tapi. Get on the front seat, then set your tapi to attack a creature on the ground. Before it attacks the creature, whistle go here toward the Quetzal. From there you can just continue to follow the Quetzal by typing go here while you're tranking it.

(Old Ark Mobile)This is very long to do but effective, First tame a Tapejara, after doing that tame a high level female Rex make rex kibble. The the Quetzal taming, prepare, find a high level Quetzal, remember Tapejara saddles have two seats, switch seats then whistle 'target' then the Tapejara will follow the Quetzal, next shoot it with darts, when it's knock down apply soothing balm and put the kibble in it's inventory, make sure the area where it's knock down is safe.

To the mobile player who can’t request or unclaim their missing Quetz, sorry. You can’t do anything, you have to wait until they eventually starve to death, as you cannot request them so if they had plenty of food in their inventory, you’ll have to wait an extremely long time for that tame slot to be free. Sorry man, hope this isn’t too bad for you.

Get yourself a flyer a net gun, a parachute and yoir weapon to tranq it out(optionally a trap) First get on the flyer and find your quetz then jump off using the parachute and shoot it with the net gun. Then land and build a trap or tranq it out right there

Is it a possibility to take an egg and have one Aggro on you, or is that too dangerous?

They are usually around red woods and swamp also I would recommend using tranq arrows or darts mostly arrows cause damage in the arrows upgrade the torpor

My way that i am willing to do to Tame these guys is to kill it, revive it with a revival platform and tranq it 😊

Have fun not sleeping because breeding takes so long
