Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a therizinosaurus? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a therizinosaurus.
Once you get it knocked out make sure you have a few hundreds of narcs cause keeping him down is the real problem
I'm going to tame a theri with tranq arrows and a mastercraft bow
Wish me luck boys...
Step 1 get on a mountain
Step 2 get on top of a rock that dinos and players can’t climb
(use flying dinos like pteranodon saddle unlock at lvl 38)
Step 3 use Tranq arrows
Step 4 use smoothing balm or buy minor smoothing balm(only 10 amber)
Step 5 use the smoothing balm or minor sb ^
Step 6 put berries and bio toxin or narcotics |(put like many many)
Step 7 congratulations you have a tickle chicken
IF this help press ^ ty
To tame a high level therizinosaurus you just need 600 to 900 narcotics to keep it asleep and about 5
0 to 100 with tranq arrows and I personally just stand on a tall rock or a hill cuase I'm too lazy to build a trap and some mejoberrys or exceptional kibble which is faster but I'm not that rich and there you go your own therizino, by the way you need to be level 69 to get the saddle hope this helps and tickle chicken is a pretty good name and it has a tickle attack.
There is a trick in the ultimate mobile edition that saves you all your narcotics and a ton of time that is spent usually waiting for your knocked out dinos to slowly eat and fill the taming bar.
(Works with any dinos)
Step one:
Trap your dino that you are planning to tame. For example (Therizino).
DO NOT KNOCK IT OUT YET.
Step two:
Craft a thatch foundation and a bed and place it near the trap (ofc far away enough so that you won't get hit)
Step three:
Wait for nightfall and go to sleep on the bed.
Step four:
When you wake up, start pumpkin tranqs into the dino and knock it out.
After knocking it out, you will notice the food meter of the dino is downright 0. (In mobile edition, sleeping the night on a bed while a dino is trapped in your render distance, drops their food to 0 regardless of how high it is)
Step five:
Chug some food down its throat and see that taming bar soar up.
Congrats, you saved yourself hours of waiting and tons on narcotics which is usually required for a tame like therizino with a high torpor drain.
Tip: try and aggro the dino and kite it to a safe place or your base for a much safer process.
This is march 31st 2025 and it's still working.
Theris will drown if they pass out in water! Many tames won't drown when knocked out it rivers and streams, but these guys will. After 200+ hours the first 150 Theri I've found chose death over servitude...The hunt continues...
They are hard to tame but it’s worth it all I did is go on a high land high enough so it won’t hit ya then over load it with Trang arrows recommend crossbow not bow and they eat berrys even tho they sound like they eat meat THEY DONT REMEMBER THIS!!!
Don't make the same mistake i did. I was taming a therizinosaurus and i left it alone for 30 seconds for water. When i come back, a pack of raptors came in and murdered him. WATCH YOUR TAMES PLEASE I FEEL SO SAD RIGHT NOW
Only tamable if it's name is pronounced correctly...
Beware of the Death Chicken. It's claws slice through your tamed Carno's like a knife through butter.
This things torpor drain is out of this world high
Hey, I was chilling just making my base until this guy just spawned out of nowhere. I’m like oh hell no I’m gonna get my tranquilizer and I heard that he broke something but then I went back to my base. Nothing was broken so but you guys gotta watch out this guy a menace.
They are dangerous, but they are big and wide.
Make sure you have alot of Tranq ammo, appropriate Dino food and spare Narcos.
Clear the area of all hostile Dino's.
Find 2 close together trees. Shoot it and lead it between the trees. It's should get stuck and give you the time you need to take them down.
This is how I catch mine every time. It's all about strategy, this isn't the kind of Dino that you can get; without first having a plan.
They make a great personal body guard.
Bring as much narcotics as you will need them because the torpor on the theri drains much faster than any other dino
Just make a 4x4 trap and you should be good but once unconscious it will wake up fast so be sure to bring extra narcotics
These guys are the worst, I was trying to build my house but these guys pretty much say this “ah ah ah, You didn’t say the magic word!”
They take megalosaurus kib and are very long tames, it's the standard knock out and tame, be prepared for a fight
I wish there was a berry that could make things starve. That way it would be faster to tame
Therizinosaurs, or tickle chicken, is very territorial and does lots of damage.
A good strategy is to stand on top of a very steep rock or a small cliff and start shooting. Make sure that it's steep enough so that the therizino won't climb over it.
Another strategy is to lure him into a 2x2x2 trap. Make sure that it's made out of stone, or metal if you can afford it.
When it's down, feed him berries or crops. Make sure to bring hundreds of narcotics, because the therizino's torpor drops quickly.
Once tamed, you probably don't have to worry about him dying, as it's power rivals theropods like the rex or the spinosaur.
Just don't even go near it, it will hunt you down and fondle your family.
