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

You can actually find these guys outside of Crystal Isles on console. They spawn about the same spots as tapejara’s. Good luck finding them, and have fun!

Took me about 2 hours to tame a 140 on X4 official. Took about 35 minutes between the feedings excluding the time between the first and second feeding, which always takes a long time for passive tames. It kept agro no matter how far and how long I left it in the trap. I'm…

Timer is off a considerable amount, tamed a 140 and timer was 45 minutes for second feeding and 35 minutes for third feeding and on. Official rates during 4x event

To make it a bit easier to tame trap it and use regular bolas to drain the food down then use the chain Bola to tame it you will use 5 or so and get a perfect tame

It only aggro the player who shoots at it with the bola, so a duo tame is easier because the guy who shoots at him will get grabbed and the other guy don't, so one guy only shoots and the other only feeds, after the first bola i suggest to not feed the trop right after…

If u want to avoid long wait times between feeding I suggest trapping the Tropeognathus and then using 1 or 2 regular (not chain) bolas to drop its hunger level as doing this seems to make it lose hunger very fast. Then when u want to tame it place your balista, fire a chain…

I have not seen any comments detailing the use for raids. It can outfly pteradons and wyverns plus any other flyer, and it is faster than the projectiles from the fire, frost, and poison wyverns. It is perfect for getting out quick if the counter raid was successful or if you…

A 150 took 35 mins between bolas and kibble feed. Don’t get too close - you need to punch to get away which resets the taming bar. Also only keeping it caught under a ceiling with 2 columns seemed to work. If it can fly up and flee even in a larger trap. taming % plummeted…

Feeding inteverals are actually 20 mins long instead of five. I’m was taming 145 male tropo. On 1x taming. Official server. And after first feeding the next feeding to get to 14 percent take even longer. About an hour. After that comes 20 min feeding intervals. And I used raw…

Mutton takes the same Time frame in between feeds as kibble but gives less percentage so the timer is wrong for food choices.

These guys can pick you off your mount and fly you higher in the air if agroed, its good to have a Simonacrops or a glide suit just incase this happens
