Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a sabertooth? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a sabertooth.
(Only if you have and argy)
1. Build 4 floors and 8 walls out of stone and a ceiling out of wood
2.fing them (they are ussualy in a hoard)
3.place the structure near them and ceiling on the side
4. Take the coolest saber and aim for a box
5. Drop and trank him
6. Take him back to the base
Just get a direwolf it's way more simple.
Where can I find one on Valguero
These are normally in a pack of two or more but can be found alone as well, TO TAME: Use a BOLA (point at the back legs just above ankles) to catch, once caught then punch it until it drops unconscious
Open inventory - put raw meat in, 6 or more
Wait for the tame to complete and there you go you have a saber
Note: THESE ARE NOT RIDEABLE WITHOUT A SADDLE!
Very easy to tame only difficulty is how to make it unconscious .am i right
I just found 1, killed all the other sabertooths in the area and shot it in the face with a crosbow.
This was only lev 11 but still.
Head shots baby from mountains and cliffs buy taking it there on an rg
Just bola, tranq, and STARVE!!! I it will take you forever if you don’t.
So I was running around in the desert on the crystal map looking for jerboas to tame when I came across a saber. Since it's literally a giant cat I tried knocking it, i rode my wyvern and lured it away while shooting it with tranq darts. Took like 20 minutes for me to knock cause of bad aim and lag T^T overall good tame. Tames quick and isnt that strong against high level dinos. (Depending on the level of the saber)
Where would you find these in island
Low health and high torpor. Not the best ratio, and they suffer from headshots. I recommend one headshot at the start and the rest aiming for the tail/back. Traps are highly effective and easy, I wouldn’t try the bola-and-tranq method, you’ll just end up with a dead kitty—or you’ll be dead.
Bola then trank arrow easyest way
1st step u should get on a high place or a pteradon,rock etc and then u start shooting off of the pterodon,rock etc and then u wait 3 sec every time u hit a tranq arrow and then it gets knocked out then I tamed a level 250 guy I gave it 60 prime meat that's what u guys need to know
I'm a noob and successfully tamed one earlier. I saw it, got above a few rocks and started shooting it. When it got close I used a bola on it and kept shooting tranq arrows at it. It worked rather well. Though you have to be mindful they are quick and can jump. And it usually takes a couple of bolas depending on rhe sabers level. They've definitley helped me with hide, chitin and other resource gathering. Pretty good mount. I want more lol
Can also use argy trap to trap it
Basically low level ones (30-) bola it and hit as many times as you can then repeat .
They have prob the ugliest colors. I mean, red mane and dark green fur? Dafuq...
Epic
The best way I have found to tame a saber is to throw a bola at it and tame it there, they typically spawn by creatures like carnos and Argens which provide you prime meat. You can't tame it where you want with this method and you have to protect it and for higher levels it may take more than one bola but it works for me
Pick Saber up by its back with Argent. Keep your nose pointed down and it won't bite/claw you to death. Drop in a stone pin. Have ladders going up the side to a ceiling looking over pin. Proceed to traq it out and boom! You have an easy tame (currently taming a 150)
