Tips & Strategies

What are tips for tapejara? Tips and strategies for tapejara in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Amazing tame! I have it in single player only, but I imagine it would be an incredible attack mount with the other players on it. It can hover, cling onto walls, which lets it regenerate stamina, turn instantly, making for great maneuvering, and it can be upgraded to have a quite decent amount of stamina and health. Only problem is how hard it is to tame one.
Lvl 1 s only need 1 tranq arrow to Ko just happened to me
(Thank goodness for this because I only had 3 on me)
Description:
Wild:
Tapejara imperator holds a dear place in the hearts of many survivors here on the island and for good reason. However, natural instincts make it best viewed from afar when wild.
This isn’t because Tapejara imperator poses any threat to survivors when wild, but is extremely shy and distrustful towards them when wild while appearing oblivious to most animals until the moment of attack. It makes a different call and flinches far faster than it’s somewhat more-common Pteranodon ancestors when spooked. I can’t tell what Tapejara imperator‘s phobia of humans is a result of. However, Tapejara imperator is wise enough to know that the sky is always the safest place to be.
Domesticated
Taming Tapejara imperator often times is always a trust-building excercise, as if you treat it with care, it should come to love you once it wakes up. Many value it’s versatility to love it back in return. It does have decent self-defense skills, but rarely uses them in the wild.
On Crystal isles they can bug into the rocks so you can easlily tranq them.
Doritos
Rare flowers! If it starts to flee, eat a rare flowers and it will start attacking you. Just bola/tranq it while it's attacking. Make sure be careful of other Dino's in the area!
When you are low lvl, maybe try standing behind it and stand back, then release a tranq arrow or dart. It should knock out fast. I have tamed two myself. My dad tried to tame one the other day..he failed so bad..XD And it was a lvl 135
Once saw a albino tapa but never saw it again since it flew away before the bola hit it :,)
Can be hit with a bola to keep it still so you can tranq its head. It can be kited to a safe area for taming by consuming a rare flower to agro it. If it's too high to bola or draw with the flower, you can use another flier to draw it back to the ground. Once knocked out it takes meat to tame. Much easier to tame than I thought it would be, if you use these tactics.
I feel like this creature is underated since it has decent stats like a slightly boosted pteranodon. Always bola one to kill or tame other wise it will fly faster than the flash. I’d advise using trank darts since their health can be low sometimes. It’s useful in multiplayer servers for quick travel from place to place and in pvp it can help in airial combat having one person fly and the other shoot. I think it’s worth the trouble to tame these guys also most levels should be focused on stam,weight,health and maybe melee damage
Hope this helps-The gaming spino
Guys when you're tapejara are ALMOST EXHAUSTED while flying try to change your SEAT to the FRONT to maintain how high you are. And it will Regen it's energy without going down to rest.
Of course try it first.Just not far to the ground just to be sure
Hope this helps :)
I'm playing Ark Mobile and i'm new to the game :)

I just found one and knocked it out, I’m not that good but the Color’s are sick! It’s Black, Gold and dark green
Alright, just tamed one and it ligit died to a Rex…
Tamed another 2, wasted about 3 days of real time tameing & searching for them, and one died to a raptor but luckily the other one killed it🤗 .
It was on 50 health out of 1561 and the raptor was a 120…
Soooooo happy but I’m sure it will die in a day or two.

You all say it is so hard to get one but I found a lvl 1 near spawn on like day 40 and it took like one tranq to the face and like twenty meat.
If you somehow manage to find this guy kinda close to the ground, put on a ghille suit, crouch, and use a net gun.
For me personally the best flyer on the game. Agile fast and the 3 seat saddle makes taming anything easy cause you can shoot properly from the air or side of cliff/redwood tree. I don't think they get enough respect always argy this argy that pffft I dont even use my argy exept for carrying dinos.
