Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a tropeognathus? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a tropeognathus.
REGULAR BOLAS DO NOT WORK, this mf was dragging me through the air ;_;
If u bola then shoot it a bunch till it low hp the next chain bola u will b able to feed it a ton
YOU CAN NOW USE NORMAL BOLAS ON THEM!! dont waste your time using chain bolas!!
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
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.
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.
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.
A 145 took 28 mins per feeding interval and ate 4 kibble to tame on official 4x event rates.
I see someone said you can use normal bolas JUST tested this you CANNOT has to be chain bola.
I found it very easy to use a snow owl if you have one. Let's say it's just floating up there in the sky and you can't seem to get it down. Use the freeze ability and it will force it to land, where then you can proceed to chain Bola it from a ground unit. It won't cause aggro to freeze it either so there's that. I did the same thing with a quets and it was relatively the same results, except the quets took back off again after about 3 seconds or so.
I've been studying this new map and got a sneak peak on this dino it's huge not bendable tho they might change there might wind current and this is 134 up for more later on🙃
To take the tropeognathus, chain bola it and feed it a food of your choice. if you try to tame the tropeognathus without a chain bola, it will likely grind your armor.
To tame it, use a chain bola to trap it, then feed it kibble/raw meat. They’re neutral, which means they’ll only attack if provoked (the chain bola will aggro them)
First trap it, u can find multiple online, then shoot it with whatever you like just hurt it enough so it won’t heal anytime soon. Then wait and it’s food will drop much quicker than just waiting with out hurting it. Then chain bola it and feed it the kibble once u have starved it enough.
Just use prime meat you lose 1 level but its 4x faster 30 mins instead of 2 hours
On valq these things are everywhere nearby the castle and the area around it. I’ve seen them above trees and walking on the ground. They only attack u if u attack it first so use this to your advantage. Gl fellow tamers.
U can ride these without the saddle but u won’t get the jet boosts and missiles. They are also the biological version of a grinder. Use chain bolas on them and passive tame. Keep them bolaed bc they will kill u.
I hate how it says “they don’t want to be tamed right now”. How dumb
