When you mess up a hack or waiting for the steps between hacks use a diplo OR wyvern to nudge the stryder around to get it away from its already walked steps. Your welcomeโฃ๏ธ
More Tek Stryder Taming & KO Tips
I've tamed one on official. You have to do a certain number of unique missions, can't be the same one over and over. Once you've done that then you have to go to the middle of the map between rings to get mutagel. If you don't see mutagel in between the rings you have to wait until the next hyperspace jump. Hyperspace jumps change the landscape and material spawns in the no man's land area. Once you have mutagel and the correct number of missions go up to a Stryder and feed it the gel from the last slot in your inventory. Once you've done that, a body part will start sparking. It will be either the head, shoulders, leg joints, feet or chest. Go up to that body part and hit the Y button again. You will then have to play a mini game 3 times where you stop the scrolling blocks on the center line with RT. Then another body part will start sparking and after it has walked a certain distance away just prince and repeat. You only need the mutagel once.
If it just keeps running in circles the best method is to attack a nearby Stryder (that isnโt one youโre taming) so the one that youโre taking will agro you and follow. Then just fly out of render distance and fly back to continue. Rinse and repeat. This may seem long but is a lot quicker than just sitting and waiting
Hate the wandering mechanic of the tame, sometimes they just wander in circles around their point of tame.
Don't try the astrodelphis mission on console it's almost impossible
XBOX - right trigger to hack for taming.
PlayStation: press RT not X for the hacking. I spent 10 minutes pressing X thinking I was miss timing!
Has to be the dumbest tame in the game,get ready to pull your hair out taming it lat alone finding the right one
A useful tip , if you fail the hack itโs taking effectiveness will reset as well as the taming process
Don't tame a high level one. You'll lose your mind. No matter how far you are into taming it'll reset if you mess up once. Fu wildcard.
