Tips & Strategies
The tapejara could be one of the most versatile flying mounts. Although it lacks melee damage, it can more than make up for that in manoeuvrability. It can go straight up and down, strafe left and right and fly backwards nearly as fast as flys forwards. It can be used for PVP as it has a three person saddle, but it can be very dangerous, as it is hard to fire rockets off of it while tying to dodge incoming fire from enemies, as one unlucky shot could kill all the riders. Stopping to shoot is good, but it leaves an opening for the tapejara to be hit by enemies. However it can attach to trees and flat surfaces, but the stamina regent on these is NOT very high.

If this helps they can hang on red wood trees ( pls up )
This guy is the only way to solo tame a quetzal, get in the passenger seat and whistle it to the quetz, tranq the quetz and then whistle passive. Repeat and you got a quetzal.
This Dino is my favorite on the island for various reasons. First, it can hold 2 passengers, a pilot, and carry another. Second, it is the most maneuverable flyer out there. It can fly sideways, backwards, and can land on vertical surfaces (cliffs, redwoods.) Third, it has a tek saddle, so you can have four dubs on that thing (tek saddle, 2 passengers, and one carried person.)
The tapeJara is bird that is able to land on the side of redwood trees grest for hiding or raiding tree platforms.
you donβt need to upgrade itβs stamina, if you are in the air and itβs stamina is low, just get in the back seat and wait for itβs stamina to recover, no need to land, if you donβt whistle it to follow, it will land automatically. I hope this helps :)
On other maps, this flyer is outshined by Griffin's, tropeos, etc. But on the island/centre it is probably the best flyer for travelling.
It's basically a school bus
Hit /\ if this helps, you can switch to passenger seat while flying to charge its stamina up
Use tapis to farm organic ploy trust me idk why dododex didnt include this but it really does farm organic polymer up this so everyone can see it
I LOVE the tapujaras! And also I think they are better than pteradons.(probably gonna get ALOT od hate on what I just said) But its because 1.they can atatch on trees to get their Stamina! Meanwhile your SAFE! BUT the pteradons to get stamina you need to go on the ground where it's dangerous. 2. TAPUJARAS HAVE 2 SEATS AND FROM EACH ONE OF THEM YPU CAN SHOOT (perfect for giga taming,or wyvern egg stealing. BUT THE PTERADON HAS ONLY ONE SEAT AND YOU CANT SOOT FROM IT. 3. ALSO TAPUJARAS HAVE MORE STAMINA THAN PTERADONS AND STAMINA IS REALLY IMPORTANT FOR FLYERS. THE ONLY REASON PTERADONS CAN BE BETTER THAN TAPUJARAS IS THEIR MELEE DAMAGE,SPEED AND SPRINT. BUT TAPUJRARS HAVE BETTER HEALTH AND STAMINA. BUT STILL I THINK TAPUJARAS ARE BETTER THAN PTERADONS. ^ DO THAT IF TOU AGREE
