Player-written tips for taming, using, and fighting the Tapejara in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.

Tamed mine w/ two tranq arrows, my handy sarco and direwolf named Woof (for defense), and the wonderful miracle of it being level four so just shooting twice made it have 340 something health. You be like: you forgot bola in list of tamed mine with. I used NO BOLA NO GILLIE…

You can use Bola to catch and after knocking out wait for its food level To decrease after that give him the food and taming process will go faster

If you see one on land sneak up on it, ready the bola as you get closer when it notices you it will have this animation before flying off throw the bola above it, if you caught it knock it out with traq arrows or darts feed them prime meat or raw meat they are very good for…

You can probably use dodo arrows to aggro it if rare flowers or taking eggs doesn’t work for you.

My process for taking these bois requires:

Ghillie armor

Bolas (2-3)

Tranqs/ tranq arrows

A tent!

Food

Find your boi and sneak up on them. Afterwards, bola it and place a tent over it. This will make them stuck. I then shoot the tranqs around the head and BAMM! You got…

These things are a bit hard to tame. They’re skittish and rare but I have had my best luck in the southern isles, north west of herbivore island, watch out for Sarcos though

The original kamikaze. Strap it in c4 and have your tribe mate sit in with you. Equip tribe mate with detonator and fly the tape into a base. Then have your tribe mate detonate the bird once within range. You will die but it will be in glory...

Most people don't actually know BUT you can get a tapejara to latch onto Trees (Mature redwoods and other big trees i think, Maybe cliffs too idk) to do this on Mobile you have to swipe up/down and for PC(Space) and console (A/X), hope this helps

If you are looking for one on The Island, go to the little island on the bottom left hand corner. I found both a female and male and I have seen about five others.

I'm on extinction and I made a base in ???? I shall not tell but one good lvl got stuck IN my base T.T it was a pain to fly out i don't know how it even got in

These things are great for stealing wyvern/dienonychus eggs because of their ability to hang on walls,they can just sit on the wall until you can reach a Egg.

How to raise a good a Tapejara

1. You will need the following: Gillie armor, bola, tranq dart ( tranq arrows don’t work trust me)

2. Even with the Gillie suit if you get too close they will Argo and fly away so have your bola ready

3. Do head shot with tranq…
