If you somehow manage to find this guy kinda close to the ground, put on a ghille suit, crouch, and use a net gun.
Tapejara
The Tapejara is a versatile and highly maneuverable pterosaur known for its three-person saddle. While it may not have as much stamina and weight carrying capacity as other creatures, it has unique benefits in combat. The Tapejara can land on trees and other vertical surfaces, allowing both the pilot and the passengers to use weapons. Its rudder-like fin make it one of the few flying creatures able to hover and strafe side-to-side.

If u mess up and now it's in the air I got u.u should get a pteranadon with good stam so u can fly up to it then eat a rare flower so it chases u then u bring it to the ground and bola it while it's on u tame.plus u need a full gillie suit to get close to it or bola range.the level for the saddle is 55.u will need about 50 metal,300 hide,200fiber,40 wood.thats mostly all the materials.u can find them near south zone 2 at the swamp area.to tranq it out you will need a rifle and tranq darts.a crossbow and tranq arrows will also do good (slingshots and bows won't work I think). Goodluck
Seriously don't get distracted when taming. I was taming one and was bored so I decided to hassle a nearby diplodocus. My argentavis was trying to help but it killed the tapejara. Just focus on taming please unless you feel like crying.
It is a good mount for taming because of it’s clinging ability you can shoot tranq darts or something else in a safe distance.taming large Dinos is a breeze.
The best way for me to tame a Tapejara is to have lots of rare flowers, eat them, get on a flying dino (any) and get it in a taming pen, or if you don't have the resources to build one, have lots of bolas and keep throwing them at it, when the rare flower effect runs out…
The best way for me to tame a Tapejara is to have lots of rare flowers, eat them, get on a flying dino (any) and get it in a taming pen, or if you don't have the resources to build one, have lots of bolas and keep throwing them at it, when the rare flower effect runs out, eat another one until it's knocked out, also, note that eating a rare flower will make the Tapejara agro on you, but not just you, also most wild life around you.
Easiest way to tame one is eat a rare flower near it and it will aggro to you. It doesn't do much damage so let it beat you while you bola. They have low health so use tranq darts to knock it out.
Not sure why, but chain bolas don’t work on tapejaras, at least for me. I had a paracer with a platform saddle and a turret, which is what I shot the tapejara with a chain bola with. I’m playing on Xbox. Does anybody know why this is happening?
If you have a quetz use it to knock one out the tapajeras are so annoying to find so get a quetz and a platform saddle then whenever you get close go up above the tapajera then shoot it with your desired tranqs they are so fast so it’s a little hard to catch them and they…
If you have a quetz use it to knock one out the tapajeras are so annoying to find so get a quetz and a platform saddle then whenever you get close go up above the tapajera then shoot it with your desired tranqs they are so fast so it’s a little hard to catch them and they never land but a great tame nonetheless three seater fast can fly backwards and in all directions not very good for stamina and weight when tamed so put stats into those two. Do weight first then stamina.
Here's a way to tame this thing at least how I tamed one (MATERIALS) 1 Rex a couple of tranq darts and taming food first you need to find one tapejaras are mostly found in dangerous areas but 100% guaranteed found in the back part of south zone 1 next you will need A VERY…
Here's a way to tame this thing at least how I tamed one (MATERIALS) 1 Rex a couple of tranq darts and taming food first you need to find one tapejaras are mostly found in dangerous areas but 100% guaranteed found in the back part of south zone 1 next you will need A VERY DELIBERATE ACCURATE SHOT STRAIGHT TO THE HEAD in this part you will have to be very sneaky next defend it request a tame first something good at collecting berries for narcs then an equss they're Chemical saddle can make narcotics lastly the Rex you had earlier it can collect raw meat extremely well tons of raw meat means lots of spoiled meat for the narcs and that's how you tame a tapejara or at least how I did it
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…
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…
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
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…

One thing is that it’s like the oviraptor. If it sees you it flys away. So you have to crouch or prone in order to get close enough. Then bula it and you have a tapajara
You don't need Ghillie suit, all you need is a Bola and good aim! I only used one bola to knock out this creature and shot it a few times with a crossbow, shoot 3-4 times in the head and if you have a spyglass use it to check its torpor.

Overall pretty easy tame! Too bad you don't get the saddle early, I tamed it at level 44, so it's kinda useless. Better at getting from point A to point B than ptera.
Okay I tried to tame about 10 of these with the sneaking up and bola method, honestly that wasn’t working. I got frustrated and the next one I found I just started spamming tranqs at its heads while it was walking and getting spooked, it flew for like 2 seconds and was…

If you want a fast and beautiful flyer this is one I’ve only seen about 5 of these things around and have mange to tame 2 tho one died. These animals are tricky but with they’re beautiful colors and a metallic looking shine as well as a beautiful assortment of sounds it…
If you want a fast and beautiful flyer this is one I’ve only seen about 5 of these things around and have mange to tame 2 tho one died. These animals are tricky but with they’re beautiful colors and a metallic looking shine as well as a beautiful assortment of sounds it makes. Tho using a bola is your best bet to catching it to tame. Make sure to have a lot of sleep stuff. These creatures have a sort of slow torpor and tame slow as well but it goes by fast
A very easy way to tame these wall-hugging, lizard-pidgeons is to put on a full set of heavy armor, get on a ptera, fly at it and eat a ton of RARE FLOWERS. Then fly him into your trap (so that none of you are violently annihilated by literally everything surrounding you)…
A very easy way to tame these wall-hugging, lizard-pidgeons is to put on a full set of heavy armor, get on a ptera, fly at it and eat a ton of RARE FLOWERS. Then fly him into your trap (so that none of you are violently annihilated by literally everything surrounding you), close the gate, shoot his face, and voila! You've got yourself a bord.
Is there a good spot on Island to get rare flowers?
Don't make your tapejara fight a super turkey I tried and had a few more dinos two the all died.
