More Tapejara Taming & KO Tips
Its very easy to tame this thing, the hard thing is finding one of these, but when you find it make sure there are no dangerous wild dinos around because they might kill you, to tame it, slowly approach with a bola and when it looks like it will fly away, BOLA IT so it doesnt fly away and just shoot it with tranq arrows or anything that makes it unconcious,
His saddle has 2 extra seats and the passengers can shoot while flying.
Up so more people see it (sorry if bad english)
I was looking for a Tapejara and I have been for the past five days and I came across one. Then all the sudden I look to my right and I see a Alpha Carno charging at me. R.I.P my poor Pterodactyl whom I had just tamed that day. Never got the Tapejara any tips for my terrible luck? 1 like= One prayer for me.
Honestly if you find one in the air on any flyer fly high above it, whip out a crossbow and grapple to it, whistle your flyer to follow you so you don't have to find it again (or just make sure you have it done beforehand). Finally, switch to a bow or a rifle and tranq that guy and make sure you detach and pop a chute before you hit the ground. Quite possibly the wildest way to tame a Tapejara or a Quetzal.
You can use rare
Flowers to bring them in traps up the so people see
To tame a Tapejara is actually, pretty easy, first things first, you will need:
-A saddled flying creature
-At least 3 bolas, in case you miss bolas in him(if you are feeling lucky, you can make only one, but I don't recommend it at all)
-Some Rare Flowers
-Club, Bow or crossbow(with tranq arrows, or else you will kill it)
-A lot of Meat(like, 20-40, only to tame eat, you probably will want more as he will get hungry after tamed), or at least 4-7 Prime Meat
-Narcotics(optional, in case of the Tapejara taking too long to tame, good having some as a backup)
How to do it: when you spot the Tapejara, use the rare flowers and make it aggro you. After that, get to land, exit your mount(recommend to put it to Passive, or your Tapejara will get killed), and bola it. After that, shoot/hit it with tour weapon of choice until you knock it out. Give it the food of choice(recommend also protecting it, as it has a low health and can easily be killed by raptors), and wait until tamed. CONGRATULATIONS, Now you have a Tapejara !! Hope this guide helped
This is my best flying Dino other than the griffin. You should really get this Dino. To tame sneak up behind using gilly suit and bola it then tranj it if available use chain bola it will hold longer
If your trying to tame of of these with out it running away you can go out on a flyer that you can use a bola on. Then after you have it on the bola you can knock it out. Then feed it meat. Then you have your own Tapejara. I hope this was helpful :)
If you spot one keep your distance and wait till it lands hop in your gilly and creep like seal team 6 bola from the back and trank with whatever you got. I surrounded mine with spike straps, then starved till you can see the bone on his food meeter while your waiting for that try and get all the best meat 🍖 you can find. Then enjoy the wind in your beard. Named mine Hawk happy hunting folks.
If they are hiding, and you don't want it getting away, kill all creatures around it, then eat a rare flower. It will come right to you, and when it does, bola it. Hope this helps!
