How to tame a Velonasaur:
1. Prepare.
You Need:
A Harpoon Gun with Net Projectiles
Longneck and Tranq Darts
(optional)A Riot Shield, color it red, white and blue so you feel like Captain America
Superior Kibble
2. Find a good Velonasaur, watch out! They usually spawn in pairs.
3. Avengers!….Assemble…
Use the shield to block the incoming needles, when you see an opportunity, shoot at it with the Net Gun…you can also just sneak up on it and fire at it.
4. Knock it out with Tranq Darts
5. Feed it Superior Kibble, give it Narcotics if it’s close to waking up
6. Name your Velonasaur! They have a good melee attack, however they can also shoot needles out of their neck frills. Make sure to level up Health, Stam and Melee.

You don’t need to trap this to tame, it’s a solo tame. If you run up to it, it will go into turret mode then you need to walk circles around it and keep hitting with tranq until it eventually tries to walk away *in turret mode so really slow walking*
They can be found in the Fjordur Map on the shores in the Volcano biome, along with some X-Trikes and a few more stuff- — Bob the Builder

EZ tamme
Just get a harpoon gun with a net projectile.
Net it and then shoot it with your friend ( if you're on a tribe ) , a few shots from an ascended long neck rifle from the. Two of you
Will down it in a few seconds.
Note : bring a metal shield Incase if you have a primitive rifle, shoot it once it gets up
Tank the needles with the metal shield wait for 10 secs thenn net again
We can use the net projectile with this dino, easy tame!
About a couple weeks ago, I was so lucky I was fooled into thinking a Velonasaur disregarded a shooter when mounting an Allosaur. Just now, I thought about how a Stegosaurus protects it's rider from arrows, and then shot at the Velonasaur between the plates in Hardened mode. I got very little damage comparatively, and knocked it out in relative peace. Stegos are the key, my packmates.
Make a 2x2 cage with ramps and a door. Lure the velonasaur in with a flyer. If you stay close to him he won’t enter turret mode. Leveling melee raises his projectile hit points. Also level stamina to attack longer. A high level can shred everything I’ve come across. Can’t wait for an imprinted one for the speed bonus.
I found a bug a few days ago with a pteradacle if that is how you pronuce it. If you use the pteradacle and walk up to a velonasaur on it for some reason the velonasaur goes into turret mode and does not shoot or anything. It just stands there so just walk up to one with a pteradacle and when it stares into your pteradacle for forever just load it with trans off of the pteradacle and you got a velonasaur.
Up for people to see this is the easiest way to tame this guy.
