Tips & Strategies

you can easily tame it like this:
find a tropeo and bola it (normal bolas) then place 3 dino gateways like a triangle around it, put 4 stone pillars on top of eachother next to the centre of the trap and put some ceilings on them (4 ceilings should be enough) then you can place your ballista and charge the chain bolas but DO NOT SHOOT, first you have to starve it with normal bolas so just bola him every 30 seconds until his food is down enough, once you have done that just chain bola this guy and feed him so it's an insta-tame
hope this helped, leave an arrow
If u chain bola it and don’t feed it and wait like 30 more seconds after it gets free. It looses like 200 food do this a couple of times and it’s an insta-tame
REGULAR BOLAS DO NOT WORK, this mf was dragging me through the air ;_;
If you only want to use one chain bola and your on a cluster server, tame a reaper, bola the tropeo and then use the reaper's right click attack. Adds 20 seconds to the bola each time you right click and it hits.
Normal bolas do work to immobilize them so you can build around and trap them, but you still HAVE to use the chain bolas to feed them, using normal ones will just say he doesn't wanna be tamed right now.
Ifnyounplan on luring this iñto a trap with rare flowers careful this thing can pull you off flyers mid air if it's attacking you learned the hard way
It’s a non violent tame so don’t tranq it use bola to drain food and chain bola to tame it is a carnivore and is nuetral I hope this was useful good luck
Absolute fastest way to tame while retaining taming effectiveness is to find a tropeo, find somewhere nearby to place ballista on a single foundation, load it up with 10-12 chain bolas, take a wyvern to BITE the tropeo and get it aggro'd to the wyv, fly back to ballista and chain down the pursuing tropeo, continue hitting the tropeo with the remaining bolas (they stack the timer), then feed kibbles. The bite damage and bola stack will immediately drop the food stat so you can be done in a minute or two with no loss in taming effectiveness.
Don’t bother with regular bolas, every time I tried it didn’t let me feed only let me remove the bola. Wasted 3 hours of my life trying to get this to work, don’t waste 3 hours of yours.
Don't leave render of it if you have it trapped, for some reason it will phase out and chase you across the world.
To that a hole saying a command is the easiest way. Not everyone just uses a little cheat book to get what they want here. Some line the satisfaction of working for that feeling.
If it picks you while taming it, whipping it will make it drop you but it will reset its taming, useful for getting it trapped
Everyone Read This!
It Will Grab You off your mount, Destroy Everything you have on you and then kill you! DO NOT LET IT HIT YOU!
A 145 took 28 mins per feeding interval and ate 4 kibble to tame on official 4x event rates.
One spawned right in top of me, and began flying close to the ground.
Like an idiot, I thought it was a Tapejara, and threw my bolo at it.
It was only when I realised it wasn't what I thought it was, and was a passive tame, that I left it behind.... It chased me all over the mountain.
Every time I thought I was free, and began looking at dinos to tame, it appears like the embodiment of winged death.
Eventually it knocked me off my Dino, into a pit of 5 hungry dire wolves, and myself and my max level iguanadon died.
Always double check your target before attacking.
