Player-written tips for taming, using, and fighting the Tropeognathus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.

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

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…

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

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…

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…

Speedy little pterosaur with its saddle, but you need a lot of stamina in this guy to use it for a longer period of time

Idk how to escape this thing, but make sure it doesn’t pick you up

It will carry you in the air ;-;

To tame a trop I have and idea for a trap and a strat: you’ll need: one chain bola, one ballista turret, three stone doorframes, three stone walls, one stone ceiling (triangle might work too but I haven’t tested it) first you set up the ballista, then you put the doorways…

If the Dev adds ornithocheirus, i will be cheering because ornithocheirus is bigger, heavier, faster, than then the quetzal, they look like bigger tropeo

Bola it trap it. Bola again. Wack with your sword till its almost dead. Let it quickly starve. Bam. Feed kibble when it gets close to half.
