Tames are friends, not food.

At lvl 72 with flak armor on, a lvl 5 Troodon knocked me out with one attack at night. Last thing I saw was those glowing eyes before passing out. My Guess is that they attack vital organs. Luckily my Doedicarus was up for a game of baseball and launched that little devil out into the stands.

these are tips for taming not sharing your f***ing stories. use the stories category

Don't use wyvern to tame. They're worth a lot of xp but it won't attack a knocked out one and my weakened poison wyvern at 156 hp killed the level 140 troodon.

Be sure eggs don’t hatch in daytime hours as caught at the wrong time, even indoors without windows, a new hatched baby can die instantly

Labeled as a “passive tame.” Yeah, right. Feeding your living pets to a tiny ferocious monster, watching as it chews on their internal organs and slowly rips it apart, still breathing. Passive.

I'm pretty sure none of the people writing these posts have ever tamed a Troodon. I say this because none of them have mentioned some of the awesome scouting skills of the creature. With that said, here's some things you should know. I tamed a level 15 a few minutes ago. To do it in one shot I fed it a level 100 crystal waveren on neutral. First I took the health down to about 50. Im on a pve server so I used a combination of jumping off cliffs and a nearby wild animal. Then I went to the troodon. And got it agroed attacking the wavren (had a buddy help). I watched the wavrens health until the last second and dismounted and the final bite and kill tamed the troodon. You cannot be sitting on the sacrifice and it must be in neutral. Just a bit before I attempted a level 55 troodon with a level 224 wavren with only a 88% tamed. Before I could get another wavren out of cryo to finish the tamed it lost all 88%. Good Luck!

do people know the difference between TAMING AND KO TIPS and STORYS

Those eyes, they haunt me even when its venom knocked me out, and is slowly picking off my pack of low-level Allosaurus. Now I have a Troodon... Yay... The Troodon was level 180. My pack of Allosaurus were around level 20. 6 Allosaurus died that evening.

Maloi the Baryonyx.

It is recommended to only tame troodon during the night, as this will double the taming output it gets from killing creatures. (Dododex correction: taming at night is 2.5x rather than 2x.)
