if you use a syringe and drain your health to 10% or lower(without dying ofc lol), the pup will try to heal u aswell entering the state in which u can feed it

Keep yourself dehydrated, have a bunch of stimberries on hand to stop your rising torpor, and you can easily keep yourself at a low enough health to feed them without being risky

(You have to be at 10% or less for them to heal you and then you can feed them)

Best way to tame, use a bloodpack on yourself so it heals you then just feed it to get his energy back

easiest way to tame a Tidepup is just to bring a small dino that you can safely injure a little, walk it over to the Tidepup, and let the little guy heal it. Every time it finishes healing your dino, you get a chunk of taming progress. Then you just wait for the Tidepup to chill for a bit, hurt your dino again (not too much), and repeat the process. It’s super low‑stress since the Tidepup doesn’t get aggressive or anything, so you can take your time and just cycle the heal → rest → heal loop until it’s yours.

This guy prefers blue kibble(regular) to help tame :)

It prefers the regular kibble from my experience to help tame

you will NOT ko him if you try to I will hunt your base down and destroy it you just gotta heal your tames from this dude

Youn need to take your dino and injure it down to less than 10% health then ride it up to tidepup and it will do a green heal affect and sleep while sleeping feed it raw meat or kibble soon as ur done u can dmg your dino down to 10% of its health again and just keep repeating the process just make sure u dont hot the tidepup by accident bc it will follow your character while ur injuring your dino if u do it will lose taming and if you stab a second tidepup to get it to go away the one ur trying to tame will run to but just give it a minute then go up to it again it wont loose and taming if you dont take to long

apparently you tame it by letting it heal your tames?

It’s a water puppy come on just tame it
