Tips & Strategies

A great taming mount with friends! Have one person drive and another shoot tranqs, makes tranqing flying creatures like argies and quetz a breeze, but you can also use this technique to tranq just about anything. Solo, you can hook onto walls such as cliff sides and try to fire from the saddle, although the angle tends to be difficult.
Otherwise, it makes a great "pick up" mount, use it to pick up friends that may have lost their flying mount or otherwise stranded themselves far from home.
However they are quite slow, consider putting a number of points in speed and a few in weight, especially if you want to keep up with fleeing quetz. With enough weight they can become an interesting alternative to an argy.
More Tapejara Utility Tips
This guy is the only way to solo tame a quetzal, get in the passenger seat and whistle it to the quetz, tranq the quetz and then whistle passive. Repeat and you got a quetzal.
If this helps they can hang on red wood trees
This Dino is my favorite on the island for various reasons. First, it can hold 2 passengers, a pilot, and carry another. Second, it is the most maneuverable flyer out there. It can fly sideways, backwards, and can land on vertical surfaces (cliffs, redwoods.) Third, it has a tek saddle, so you can have four dubs on that thing (tek saddle, 2 passengers, and one carried person.)
If you are middle sky up qnd your tapejara stamina stamina runs out just change your seat and it will gain it stamina back up for noobs to seeπͺ
The tapeJara is bird that is able to land on the side of redwood trees grest for hiding or raiding tree platforms.
you donβt need to upgrade itβs stamina, if you are in the air and itβs stamina is low, just get in the back seat and wait for itβs stamina to recover, no need to land, if you donβt whistle it to follow, it will land automatically. I hope this helps :)
It's basically a school bus
I LOVE the tapujaras! And also I think they are better than pteradons.(probably gonna get ALOT od hate on what I just said) But its because 1.they can atatch on trees to get their Stamina! Meanwhile your SAFE! BUT the pteradons to get stamina you need to go on the ground where it's dangerous. 2. TAPUJARAS HAVE 2 SEATS AND FROM EACH ONE OF THEM YPU CAN SHOOT (perfect for giga taming,or wyvern egg stealing. BUT THE PTERADON HAS ONLY ONE SEAT AND YOU CANT SOOT FROM IT. 3. ALSO TAPUJARAS HAVE MORE STAMINA THAN PTERADONS AND STAMINA IS REALLY IMPORTANT FOR FLYERS. THE ONLY REASON PTERADONS CAN BE BETTER THAN TAPUJARAS IS THEIR MELEE DAMAGE,SPEED AND SPRINT. BUT TAPUJRARS HAVE BETTER HEALTH AND STAMINA. BUT STILL I THINK TAPUJARAS ARE BETTER THAN PTERADONS. ^ DO THAT IF TOU AGREE
Use tapis to farm organic ploy trust me idk why dododex didnt include this but it really does farm organic polymer up this so everyone can see it
You donβt have to land for stamina! Just exit the driver seat and go to to the back seats!
