Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a terror bird? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a terror bird.
Warning Dododex is wrong when it comes to how many darts it takes to knock out.... said 2 to the head of 6 to the body took me 6 point to the head with a 225% rifle and normal darts.. punched In my rifle dmg and everything... ended up losing the Terror bird.....
Great for cave runs. Can clear carno Island cave in 15mins with my 250
I love these guy also don’t try to tame without bio toxin
MOBILE: meat and alot of narcotics to keep it asleep just what I learned. Useful in packs just like raptors. I'm still experimenting and fairly new to the game in general so that's all I got for now
Great tame to use around redwood biome on the center map. Stamina drains at a steady pace and deals a nice amount of damage.
Idk why people say they are killers just hola em than kill/knock out on my 100 day map I have a sword metal primitive and full flak and killed a whole pack btw ez tame
An error for sure... says this fits through a doorframe, but not a double doorframe? I think thats reversed; I have definitely tamed using a 4x4 doorframe trap, and other traps where a doorframe is the only point of accessible to tranq, no issues, no escapes.
Large aggro radius and travel in flocks, be careful!
If low lvl build a trap to lure them into using foundations, walls and ramps. They tend to prioritize wild herbivores over you so sometimes you can catch them distracted by a Trike or Stego and tranq them (make sure to kill or distract the Stego quick before it kills the birds).
If higher lvl, build flak armor and just facetank them while firing darts, they have low topor so usually 3-5 darts downs them with a primitive longneck. You could also use a tamed Rex or Spino to draw their aggro by dismounting and mounting then tranq them while they are distracted.
The best way to tame one of these things it to try to pin them egenst a cliff and then bola it and shoot it in early game tranq arrows will work
They are always found with raptors a lot of raptors trust me 🤧 it was bad
These are a pain to tame but they are worth it, and the saddle is cheap
I’m not sure if this is a glitch or it’s what really happens but I usually carry one into a wooden taming pen and leave it there for a while. While waiting I go do random things, like kill a bunch of things at Carno Island/The Dead Island for some XP. After around 15-30 minutes I go back and knock it out and give it some Gallimimus Egg Kibble. As soon as I put the kibble in its inventory it tamed immediately. A new way to starve tame I guess? Also there were no corpses or anything in the pen to feed them.
Bring lots of narcotics Lolz
Get a tape scout a terrorbird and Impale him in da face with arrows feed him da sleepy juice give him da fat meat and then you got yourself a bird that eats titanoboas for breakfast
First stage of life a dodo second stage of life a terror bird last at age of life a Dodo Rex
Tried taming it near base, it was level 331 and massacred my tames, Bye bye unnamed rex..
Bro this is easy yame but don't forget biotoxin
Otherwise you know
if you see one the best weapon to tame it is a simple rifle and shocing qtrank darts
When knocking out, it's a good idea to Bola it, then tranq it. Check on it frequently, because the torpor drop is very high.
Their torpor drains VERY fast, so bring tons of Narco or just use an Argent to haul this guy to your base and tame him there.
