To tame a 145 on 4x took around 2 hrs with kibble
Takes a long time between feeds around 25 - 30 mins. Fairly easy to trap using Dino gates, pillars and ceilings, put around it once it has been chain bola'd. Have a tribe mate check if it needs feeding will only attack the person who bola'd it.
Fire a couple of chain bolas at it in the trap before feeding any kibble or meat, this compleatly drains its food,for a quick tame.
Dino gate trap. Ride pteradon and eat wild flowers. Chain bola and then feed it. Kibble amounts are correct timing is off. 25 min intervals till hungry.
Taming feed rate is 30 minutes per food piece on four times. Used ascended kibble
Use 2 quetz, 1 with ballista & 1 with 3 dino gates trap it with gate mid are and have other person on Quetz with ballista shoot in trap,feed and repeat
On back of quetz or wyvern use a normal bola to knock it out of sky, then 3 normal gates to trap it and then set up your launcher for chain bolas to start taming
Learned from experience, they phase right through quetz traps. Cant tame mid air.
Found on Scorched Near the high mountain ranges on the west side. Setup a basic taming box with a stone Dino gate and setup a ballista in front of 2 pillars I could fire through. Be warned they have a long distance agro period. I lost it at some point after flying from my trap for food. Circled the entire ark to get back to me, heavy turrets didn’t seem to trigger while flying by when you start taming. Flower method works just fine. Chain bola when it’s time to feed again to efficiently use ammo. Have exceptional kibble on hand for fast taming. Good luck!
To tame these guys effectively set up a catapult and chain bola it and feed it extraordinary kibble and when it escaped it will Afro onto you, then from there rinse and repeat....
You tame this by chain bolaing bola ing? And then passive tame it but as soon as it breaks free it will try to kill you. Other from that it’s passive but you should probably trap it
It's a Brazilian creature so you will encounter one at every pub u go
They will spawn in the floating islands on crystal isles
Dossier says it can’t be bolad, but CAN be chain bolad! It’s also neutral so if you take a tapejara and a tribemate on the back seat, you can shoot the tropeo from the back seat. Dossier says it’s not the fastest so you’ll likely be able to outfly it with a tapejara or maybe even an argy.
These guys are on ume, you just have to spawn it with commands
Simplified taming guide
You will need:
Harpoon gun
Shotgun/high DPS weapon
Net Projectile (Bring extra incase you miss, they are fast)
4x Stone gateways
Balista
Chain Bola
Kibble/Mutton
1. Shoot net Projectile at it but don't get trapped in it's jaws.
(I play Fjodur so R.I.P Crystal Isles players)
2. Build 4 gateways around it and leave some space for the balista.
3. Inflict damage on tropeo so it loses hunger, but when it gets out of the net chain Bola it.
4. Feed it Kibble or mutton until tamed.
