Taming & KO Tips
How do I tame a sinomacrops? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a sinomacrops.
They seem to run away if your on a tame and if you get to close you have to let them come to you and it shows hearts and the fly and hop towards you when your ready. Keep chitin in your hot bar and feed once they get close to you. Then follow using the dino tracker but keep a decent distance and watch for surrounding dangers and repeat this process until tamed. They surprisingly don't use as much Stamina to fly up as I would have expected and are over all cute and impressive shoulder pets. You can't trap them by the way! And good luck taming them!
I found the spawn command if anyone wants to spawn a sinomacrops the command is gmsummon "sinomacrops_character_bp_c" 150 0 0
A raft helped me a lot when it was over water
Best tame in lost Island can and will save you countless number of time
Make it as my pet
And let it have a egg
Just tested this out sure it would fail and was stunned when it didn't. While sinos are frightened off by most tames, one important thing that doesn't scare them... tamed sinos. This means after you tame the first one you can keep it with you and use it to glide around the dangerous swamps where they live without having to cryo it when you see another high level. Absolutely game changing for me right now.
To tame u need to put chitin in ur last slot , dont wear chitin armour it will Agro it , wait until it comes to u and feed it go to the taming hub to track it and wait til it comes to u , they can be easily scared so don’t run after it when trying to tame , when tamed then u can fly and glide around with them and they eat chitin after tame
Tame on Lost Island:
Easy find in Stego Swamp (60,80)
Build Raft or bring tools
Bring 100 or so chitin (Make sure its in last slot)
Once you find it, stand still about 15-30m away and it will come for feeding.
If it flies over water use raft and repeat 3rd step. (Easy and ideal method)
You actually want it to fly over water, this will allow you to feed it very often every 10-30secs it will land on raft.
!!Careful in Swamp area Kapros and Barys. I usually kill or kite them with maewing or pt!!
Don’t wear a full ghillie suit. Ghillie makes it almost impossible for them to see you and makes taming much harder. Wearing ghillie I was able to only tame sinoma’s that took 1 or 2 feeds. Ditched the ghillie and quickly got 2 lvl 145’s
For some reason it eats chitin so don’t wear chitin armor then it willl eat you
Passive tame, use Chitin and track it with your dino tame menu. don’t chase after it unless it goes more than 100m away or it is close to the ground, when i games mine i just crouched the whole time and it worked.
After you tame it make sure you have a lot of chitin to feed this guy, might be my new favourite as you can use it for taming, transport, building, or escaping.
PUMP ALL POINTS INTO STAM on this guy, i don’t think speed does much and the weight doesn’t matter
Not only do they aggro on chitin armor, if you are flying a Lymantria they will attack your moth. This is useful in luring them out to tame, especially if you’re working with a friend, but be careful!
Hello it's your favourite friend (the Sinomacrops)
People think I don't like you survivors the truth is I'm just a bit touchy. people don't ever think about letting me come to you because you big scary survivors are enough to frighten me away when you come marching up.I am a passive tame and I like a certain food that comes from bugs on the beach but I only eat it if you put it in your last Inventory slot and if I approach you. If you haven't guessed already I like chitin and that's it but when you feed me don't just leave me slyly follow me around until I'm hungry again then feed me until Im done.
I hope you scar... I mean friendly survivors use this information well
Your friend Sinomacrops xxx
Walk around it, when you see the hearts it will fly towards you. Feed it when it lands, and repeat. After you feed it it will run so make a trap or just find it.
Much much easy to get once you have one, tame a low level then go after a better one, they eat lots of chitin when using
Do not I have other tamed dinos around or it will run away from you
Use the canoe and they land right next to you to enjoy the ride and some snacks. Pop some chitin in your last slot and wait it out.
When taming find one flying above the ocean and use a boat it will land on boat every time just float under it with boat
Don’t chase it too much or it will attack you - let it come to you
Passive tame with chitin don't wear chitin armor you're gonna get killed
