What are tips for tapejara? Tips and strategies for tapejara in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
If you find one, get a flyer, lead him down some rocks, then if he’s stupid enough, get a bola to secure him, and then knock out. Use a soothing balm if you’re worried.
Eat rare flowers and bait it into a trap, best way 100%
I have found that they are EXTREMELY common at Cragg’s Island, which is the bottom southwest island at The Island, near the main river running through it. I have found more than one ever time I go there. Look for the small clearing on the right side of the river near the bottom of the island. There is also many easy tame animals there.
credit to my friend for this idea- RARE FLOWERS. Get on a flying mount and eat rare flowers to get it to chase you into a trap. makes taming these little pricks a thousand times easier (though still a bit tricky)
Best way to take is eat rare flowers so it follows you and lead into a trap, but wear armor so it won’t kill you
EATS BERRIES I FOUND OUT
You should use either ghillie to sneak up on it or rare flowers to let it aggro on you, either way you should bola and try to use tranq darts as they are weak
Consume a rare flower so that the tapejara is after you, then you or ur tribe mate can easily bola it rather than it getting scared off
Use a flyer with a decent amount of health and agro it onto that flyer with rare flowers. Bring it to a safe place and bola it while it’s attacking your flyer. Knock it out with tranc arrows, and there you go.
Rare flower so it comes to you then bola
Eat rare flowers and this thing will aggro to you! Then bola it and shoot with tranq arrows/darts and get your Tapejara!
Fly up to it, eat a rare flower then land. It will attack your mount giving you time to bolo it or tranq it. Electric tranq darts are best as it takes fewer hits.
Very useful for moving with feiend. The saddle alone hold two people then grab 3rd friend with claws. Lvl up stamina and weight and u can us 2 friends at one with a lot of arrows to knock out other Dino's. Only problem is be careful to find one. They fly away and fast when they see u.
This bird aggros toward rare flowers, you may be able to Bola it while it's pissed, just watch for other dinos when consuming the rare flowers.
