Quetzals, one of the best dinos. Quetzals can easily be tamed with a buddy, all you need is a flying dino that can pick up people or has a multi-seat saddle. Load up with the appropriate tranq arrows, narcotics, food and set off across the map to find one. Low levels are brilliant for beginners as they can serve as brilliant carriers due to their high base weight stat. Higher levels however mainly are used as "Battle Quetzals", alongside the high stats it will receive from being tamed, pumping health and melee damage is the way to go. With that being said you'll be able to tank base defences such as PSX and Auto Turrets, aswell as kill dangerous dinos with ease. Maybe either of those don't tickle your fancy, then hey, make a "Party Quetzal"! Strap on some chairs, tables, food and lots more onto the Quetzal's Platform Saddle and hover in the air as you dance to Darude Sandstorm being blasted through someone's mic in game chat. If you can get a quetzal, do consider as they are brilliant!

When you tame your first quetzal, you should make it into a quetz trapper... if you are wanting more... if you don't know what a quetz trap is, go to YouTube! If you can tame a low level one to start! Being able to tame as many quetzals as you want with the trap, is RIDICULOUS!

Anyone else having trouble trying to ride this guy on Fjordur Single Player? I have both platform and regular saddle, but they both aren't working. Someone help?

Instead of using a tracker just place a bead on the quetz so u can respawn or teleport to it

Theres a really low chance to get a journeyman quetz platform saddle from the Artifact of the Strong red loot crate on the of the cliffs

TYPE WHERE THEY SP?awn I ONLY SAW ONE AT THE RED OBELISK? NoW ITS DEAD ark mobile island

In ark survival of the fittest the tamed quetzal travel you where you want to go

Named mine giant bird cuz, Why Not?

It's big and it sounds like a crow or

Do the pursuit Thin Air, it gives an Ascendant Tapejara saddle with can be used to easily tame a quetzal. Hope this Helps 😊👍🏻

Best way to get metal is have 3 people with to the metal run have a chair on the foundation for the quetz when u got like 6k raw metal knock out the player give it the metal u got drag him to the chair and make him sit it doesnt effect the quetz weight

There's a reason they're so goddamned hard to tame; they're a gamechanger. Even if you don't have a platform saddle they are extremely useful. They have a massive amount of stamina so they can fly for extremely long periods of time, their carry weight is comparable to some of the bigger land creatures like a diplo, and they can carry absolutely massive creatures through the air. It can make setting up bases in newer areas like the snow biome much easier. Personally I use it to make trips to some metal deposits in the tundra so I can get bulk amounts at once without either encumbering my flyer or bringing a clusterflock to disperse the metal. Once you have it, take very good care of it.

Absolutely a pain in the ass to fly, but its kinda worth it considering you can build a house on top of them, and you will kinda get used to its slow speed over time

These guys are great for metal collection. Movement speed 757% is enough to get you from herbivore island to the volcano on the island in about 30secs to a minute, and 9000 weight is about enough to bring back the metal u need for an industrial grinder with the same speed. IK it’s kinda hard to lvl it that much without Ascendant creatures tho XD. Anyway, Quetzals are good for collecting tonnes of the heavier materials even without lvling them into oblivion. I used mine to bring back 5000 metal. Patience is key tho, coz these things are SLOW AS. Took me half an hour to bring it back to my base 😂.

Tame 3 quetz, 1 base 1 defense 1 to Cary creatures

Sky brontos. Need nore words aaaa

Believe it or not a Quetzal can pick up any creature that you can fit on its back. We built a platform on its back and managed to fly a Giganotosaraus back to our camp

Y’all dumb all I did was get a rifle with 1200 dmg and use tranq darts and just follow it on the ground. If you want to get the weapons just run into caves and place a bed next to the artifact containers and then kill ur self and respawn at obelisk to get back just kill urself

Get a grappling hook and a flyer. Fly close enough to the quetzal, jump-off and shoot it with the hook then shoot it with any tranquilizing ammo you have (wait 5 seconds between each shot)

Also make sure your flyer is following you so when the quetzal gets knocked out you can hook onto him.

The quetzal. The sign you have truly mastered travel. Long gone are the primitive days of rafts wading through shark infested seas, and of flying for ages to simply have to turn back to your base. The Quetzal IS your base. It’s quite sturdy, able to escape battle in a pinch, and can have armies of men and turrets atop it. You do not even need to fly this thing; put a chair on it, have it in its own whistling group, and simply order it where to go, meaning zero stamina drain. You can even have other flyers parked and ready for dispatchement, wether it be an army of fierce pteranodons or ferrying tapejaras or cargo-lifting argies, this bird is a fortress, airport, plane, and war machine.

Equip with platform saddle and turrets. Also have beds and a metal structure on platform saddle. Have all of your tribemates jump of with parachutes and rifles and BOOM! Call Of Duty
