What are tips for thylacoleo? Tips and strategies for thylacoleo in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Once you find the desired Thylacoleo, youre gonna build a 2×2×2 trap (a boy with 2 high walls) made from stone doorways. Then, let the thylacoleo pounce on you (wear armor, otherwise youre dead), punch it with fists, so you dont damage it. Once its not pounced on you, get on an argentavis, pick it up, carry it into the trap. From there, knock it out. You should use a crossbow and tranq arrow minimum. But a longneck and tranq darts are better. Beware! Once unconscious, the creature loses torpor fast, so if its a high level, make sure you feed it narcotics, so it stays asleep. Raw prime meat or extraordinary kibble is what you should use to tame it. You get the saddle at level 51, costs 18 engram points, and you need 290 hide, 155 fiber, and 20 metal ingot. These creatures are very good for caves. They deal bleed damage, meaning alongside with normal damage, the bitten creature loses 5% of its health in the matter of a few seconds. I hope this answers most of your questions about the Thylacoleo. Good luck taming, Survivors!
Wanna find one? Simply mind your own business flying through the redwoods and they'll find you! Just make sure you can take some fall damage and that your tame is set to passive so it doesnt kill the thyla. (I know this seems like a joke but this is legit the only way I know how to find them.)
Rip cole the thylacoleo u live god life 🙏 💔
Go faster than sonic and keemstar if you encounter one in the wild they will chop you apart if they get their hands on you
Ah, yes, the flying sabretooths of Ark. Be prepared to be jumpscared by a godd**n kangasuchutoothleo while peacefully walking through the woods.
Rip Cole we thank thee for your service…🥺😔
How To Tame A Thylacoleo:
1. Make a bear trap and crossbow with tranq arrows or a longneck with tranq darts
2. Go into the Redwoods on any map, DO NOT fly on anything because the Thylacoleo can jump out of trees and take out your flyer, on Scorched Earth it spawns pretty close to the Wyvern Trench, so be careful
3. Look for a decent Thyla, I’d recommend 145-150 you can usually find them chasing a Gallimimus
4. Place down a bear trap and lure the Thyla into the trap
5. Repeatedly shoot it in the head with whatever you’re using to knock it out
6. Once it’s knocked out, place COOKED meat in its inventory, it’s the only creature that prefers cooked meat over raw. You can also use Extraordinary kibble, which is produced by Magmasaur, Yutyrannus, Deinonychus, Rock Drake, Wyverns and Hespornis(golden egg)
7. Name your new Thylacoleo! It provides a bleeding effect to any wild creature, it can also climb vertical surfaces and pounce on creatures, it’s one of the best cave clearers out there!

Just tame a rhyniognatha way better then argentavis and flys super fast so thylacoleos can’t rip you off
The Thyla is an impressive creature to tame, so here is a guide to it. #1. The thyla is found in the Redwoods, and the Desert, and is aggressive. They will cause a bleed effect when they attack you, so be careful. #2. The Thyla will jump on you if you are riding anything in the redwoods, so be cautious. They can be lured into a trap, mostly a 4x4 stone one with doorframes 2 high. They are incredible when tamed, as they can climb rocks and trees, but only straight. Their saddle is only at Level 51. #3. It can harvest lots of meat and hide, so if you go out to grind meat, use a Thyla to do so. As impressive as they are, I would not recommend them for any boss fight: Leave that to rexes, yutys, daedons, etc. This is my guide to the thyla, and I hope you like it! Signed, Pickle844Luvr
Today I learned they can and will happily pop you off your Giga and snack on you face while the Giga watches.
DON’T FLY THROUGH THE REDWOODS is not a a joke. I was a fool and thought: ‘hey, if I look around for them I can fly through the forest on my argentavis without getting ambushed by a thyla, right?’. Wrong. You can’t see the kinkajou bears coming, my friend. You’re feeling like master of the forest until a furry torpedo yeets you off your mount at Mach Jesus. I speak from experience. I’ve been made into a piece of bacon by these guys on more than one occasion. Just use a rex.
Rip cole😢😢 A great Thyla who deserved better
They do a bleed now, be careful!
Had just finished farming crystals and metal on the mountain in the Redwoods, was flying back to my base with my Argy carrying my Ankylo when one of these f*ckers jumped out of nowhere, pinned me down and killed me. I thought my dinos were done for, flew back as quick as I could with my Ptera and just as I got there luckily my Argy-Ankylo duo managed to kill the oversized cat.
To pay your respects to Daniel click up button😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥😥 and for the one who lost the most enjoy the mini thylacoleo 🐯
I have a love-hate relationship with these dudes. One of the best tames there is but HORRID when wild. Do. Not. Fly. In. The. Redwoods. Period. Tame yourself a High level pair, male female, of thylas, breed them, and you’ll have yourself a taming buddy, fun when you get bored, can-tank-anything-all day (except wild gigas) pal for life. Watch the trees y'all. They’ve got eyes.
