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.

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.

This is a copy of another comment, but I added some of my own info that I used to make this easier:

DO NOT TRY TO KNOCK IT OUT (I made this mistake too many times)

Find a Tropeo and normal bola it

Then place 3 dino gateways, (have ready on hot bar with gates), 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 outside the trap and charge the chain bolas but DO NOT SHOOT

First you have to starve it with normal bolas, (I just used a bola on him every 25-30 seconds until his food was down enough)

Once you have starved him… just chain bola the guy and feed him so it's an insta-tame

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.

A 145 took 28 mins per feeding interval and ate 4 kibble to tame on official 4x event rates.

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
