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

Best to use a Ghillie and A bola on it, tranqs are easily enough to make. Torpor isn't terrible so don't worry so much about it. Decent time to tame.

Best way to tame a quetzal besides using a quetz trap. Simply upgrade speed and mostly stamina. Sit two passengers on with tranqs and either fly underneath or beside the quetzal and have the passengers shoot.
