Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a tapejara? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a tapejara.
Just use a quetzal catcher to capture it then knock it out
I just tamed one about an hour ago, best way is to carry a friend on an argument or pteranodon and have the friend bola it, then drop the friend and have them tranq it
Very useful tame. Good for traveling due to its ability to latch onto vertical surfaces, allowing safety from predators while recovering stamina
This game... I tamed a lvl 90 an at 75% suddenly an alpha raptor spawnes on the other side of the river...
So the sale can carry 3 people, but weight isn't the best.so unless everyone is naked is not carrying 3 people
Difficult creature to tame, depending 9n what you use to knock it out becareful on the area that you because of the health right after.
Having tamed three the best way is to bola it and build a mini trap around it and knock it out
name it jar jar binks
Very annoying to knock out. Your best bet is to bola it and shoot it as much as you can or use a quetz trapper. It's possible for them to get stuck like how a 140 got stuck for me.however, you can't rely on them getting stuck. If you do get them stuck you want to use shock darts. Also keep it well protected as it can easily get killed.
If you have a quetz build a trapping pen and trap it mid air in it. This makes it an easy tame. You're welcome!!
Just soloed one on foot. Followed it near volcano and just used a Bolo. No ghillie necessary. Mine was level 95 and I has to use three bolos total to take it out with tranq arrows. I'd recommend darts to be safe as my arrows almost killed it. BUILD A CAGE AROUND IT. Play it safe with this one, it's worth it. Just bring a pick and a hatchet with you and made wood fence foundations and thatch walls 2 high. Should be good.
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.
Dododex gets the kibble wrong for this tame...
If u are taming it avoid wyverns.... while i was collecting narcoberries a wyvern ate it when it was knocked out.
If you got big feet or you're just fat.. just don't bother.
Walked up to one wearing full ghillie suit and it didn't see me. Launched a bola stood there and shot it in the face.
If you have a Tribe, a Quetz or Ghille Armor Tapejara is an easy tame. Ghille allows you to go up and sniff it, Quetz allows you to use a 3x3 trap and with a Tribe of 3-5 just get everyone to headshot it with tranqs and a level 60 or lower should drop before it lifts off. Obviously higher tier Torpor projectiles allow this to work on higher levels.
If you have none if that, it is still doable. All you need is a Bola and anything that inflicts Torpor. Crouch walk behind it until you get into the range where it'd see you if you were standing. Start swinging the Bola and stand up and walk towards it. You've got about a further second to close the gap while it taunts before flying. Aim a little over its head as Bola drops fast. And try to throw it dead centre as it seems to be just go throw wings.
This is the only flying dino that can attack on land
If you only have bolas get a devent length away gorm them and aim up a bit you can still bola it that way
Always secure tame this. His health is so low that he needs one or two bites and its down. Just place wooden spikes around it, so wild animals can't get your bird.
