Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a therizinosaurus? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a therizinosaurus.
Spotted a level 155 while out hunting beaver dams on my argy (tweety), quickly made a 3×2×2 stone trap with ramps up 2 sides and led him too me. After about 55 tranq darts later and about 10-12 tranq arrows bam knocked em out. Little less then 80 narcotics and I have a level 212 theri named Edward :) straight beast at getting wood especially combined with a few beavers :) 👍
The first time i tried to tame one it woke up because narcots do nothing to it so use bio toxins its fun to see jellyfish suffer you wrath of destruction. And bio toxins are two narcotics so no waiting for meat spoil. Finally the jelly idiots give lots pf these so go out there and KILL them!
Don't attack one when there is another nearby because they both will go after you.
For a level 14, this thing has 1646 torpor that drops about just over 2 a tick and took me exactly 22 tranq arrows with a basic crossbow with slight spacing between them
Bring tons of narcotics they walk-up fast
123 berries, 290 narcotics, 1,860 naroberries, 145 jellyfish toxins, 619 spearhead things.
What i did to tame was use pachys (more than two) and have them wait about 20 meters spaced in between and have a couple of bear traps in front. When i attemted this i got lucky and she got stuck on some rock formation just enough to sink a couple more arrows in until she ran.
If you are early game and you see one get it stuck. Get it on you and lead it in-between some rooks or trees but be careful and don’t get close it will kill you. Btw this works better with too people. Stand far away but close enough you can shoot it with a Slingshot and you might have to do this twice because you could kill it.
bring more narcotics than you think you need
Use stone pillers and make a rectangular taming pen leaving one long side open, and keep 3 or 4 pillers in hot bar for later use. Agro it with any birdy (make sure it's in passive mode)..lour this mo***f***r in from the open side, fly over the closed side and sit down. While its busy trying to slash your birdy go behind and close the open side with the rest of the pillers but do it quickly. You might be wondering why pillers! Right? Coz this chump glitched out from the conventional taming pen made by wall or window frame. Keep at least 100 narcotics or 30 bio toxin inside your inventory before going to tame it (torpor drop rate is high). Eats megalosaurus kimble, if don't have it then use crops (carrots, corns, potatoes etc). Using berries is useless coz it took a lotta time to tame and reduce taming effectiveness. Goodlk
I had her down (in water) I gave her her kibble forgetting that they drown... she dies ofc but.... she dies then wants to get rid of both her body and my soothing balm and my kibble...
what happened was she was under water and had drowned I had forgot about that tho when she had died she went though the ground taking all my stuff with it. That kibble is so friken hard to get!! Now I am sad my ther. Had died with the soothing balm with 7 kibble! TwT
Last one I had on the ground was killed by a raptor while I was sorting my inventory I also died but I can actually get my stuff back and it was hard enough to get them on the ground now I have to go make a lot more tranc arrows.. because she took all of them (I only have 10 left with the clip)
Thank q if you read this no need to like but this sucks is all most people know this pain so why not like it....... Bye?
Make a taming pen. 9 foundations, use a dino gate and make walls using stone door ways, 2 door way high. Use ramp from top of door way to the ground. Lure theo into trap and bam! Easy tame!
Mobile players
Use soothing balm and give it citronals to tame in 15mins or more instead of making two hours. Hope that helped
Get 100 Tranqs build a metal pillar going up then a ladder and put a platform start shooting the theri and put loads on f berries in it bring loads of narcotics and theses guys are good for getting wood fibre berries
I tried make kibble but it doesn’t let me make one
Many people overhype the tickle chicken, while it is strong, it’s only barely on par with the other theropods such as rexes and allos, roughly halfway between them in power. Many people freak out over it being able to attack stone, but it only deals one damage to stone structures, and thus a standard 2x3 stone box works perfectly fine for taming them.
If you want tickle chickens, and you should want them, go to the broken- I mean sunken, forest. They’re pretty much the only thing that spawns in the majority of the area (other than what falls through the floor) and extinction tends to spawn high level dinos.
Your 2x3 stone box will have to be babysat for awhile, since even with kibble they take several eternities. Because of their absurd torpor drain rate, you should use narcoberries or biotoxin rather than narcotics.
After wasting several hours of your life browsing reddit and massacring dilos, you’ll have the best boss killer and gatherer on ark.
This glorified chicken is a must tame creature in Ark. They shit on everyone with their claws, gather fibre and wood like a legend. They are a late game tame though. But never fight them unless ready, they will literally shred everything you own. Moral of the story: Never go near this glorified chicken until you are strong enough to kill it or tame it.
They burn through torpor bring plenty of narcotics.
Do not use barrys cus it takes a lot of them th keep it down and I'm string cheese cuz I left to go get some barrys and now I'm sting cheese
Good wood gather, medium speed, good weight, good combat power= Top wood gather it can 1/2 the wood in his inventory.
