How do I tame a woolly rhino? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a woolly rhino.
Taming one is hard because of wolves
Use an argy trap! I was able to tame 2 lvl 150s with one. 4 stone gateways placed in a row with gates at either end once you have got the rhino in. Make sure you have a beast to protect it in case of things like rexes and sabers while its knocked out. They're so easy to tame and are absolutely brilliant once tamed.
On survival evolved all you need is tranq arrows a dino that you can shoot while riding it, and its preferred kibble or meoberries. Mainly I would do the kibble because meoberries take a long time to tame it and wastes alot of narcotics.
One of my top five Dino's because they can kill almost anything except a giga in a couple shots.
The most simple and easiest way to knock out and trap is use 4 metal billboards and make a square around the rhino. Its Super easy to trap it since you don't need to attack it till it's trapped.
We had a blueprint another tribe wanted so to trade they dropped a 150 in our base to tame, 6 hours later we had one of these bad boys, too bad when we got raided a quetz picked it and dropped him in the volcano
You can use a tanky mount like a Rex or Paracer to tank hits while you fire tranqs from the mount’s back, Rhinos aren’t too fast so it is easy to keep up with a fleeing rhino, just be ready to fight off wolves and Yutys since they swarm the north or build a protective wall around the Rhino.
They can't fit into dino gateway
I just encountered a bug eith rhinos 🦏. If you are taming any dino and taming progress is almost done like 70% or 80% and if their torpor is full enough for rest than you can leave your dino there and fly straight to your home or sny far you want(and request him at any place from tames option). And it is also the safest way to save your tame from another wild dinos.. if you are not in that area no dinos gonna spawn.. for example if you are not in ice biom than ice biom does not exist. It will be generate by computer only if player is in range. So no dino spawn and you are safe.... But this just dont work in rhinos. If you leave them they just awake when you comes again.
These are some speps that I used for taming it: 1. Build a safe platform that it can’t reach you from. 2. Get out your dart gun and start shooting at the head try not to hit a horn. 3. Once it’s unconscious feed it crops. 4. Enjoy your new creature ! .
Supper over powered but if new in a sever and you see one in the wild RUN
First encounter then terry da skorpion knocks him out and soothing balm and some berries now boom and his name is theseus elasmotherium
Just build a small 3x3 taming pen with stairs leading in from the outside then hit it with a tranq dart or arrow and jump on and argy and repeat until it’s in the pen then just keep hitting it with tranqs
It most definitely does fit through a Dino gate as well...
They lose torpor very fast but they’re herbivores so you can manage that using only narcoberries if you want to, it’s like taming a theri but a tad bit easier
A lvl150 takes like 1h30 min and 28 kibble on official with normal rates...i hope that is helpful
Guys if are into taming this Dino mammal then be careful because at the beginning it is slow but it will get faster eventually.Whatever it is worth taming
New taming timer with kibble is incorrect, takes about 40 minutes,and requires 100 narcotics
The best way for me to knock these guys out is to place down stone pillars in a line but spaced out to where you can easily squeeze through but too small for the rhino. Then lure it to the pillars and run between them. The rhino will get stuck on it and if you're lucky, it'll be aggro'ed on the pillars and not you. From there you can start tranqing it and if it goes around the pillar line just go through the gaps and continue tranqing. Dont get too close though cause they can still hit you through the pillars. Keep tranqing until its knocked out or runs away from low torpor. If it gets unstuck from the pillars and runs away, chase it and keep tranqing if it turns around to try and kill you just lure it back to the pillars. This method does require timing, positioning, and being cautious.
If your use for them is boss fights Gamma broodmother rips them apart
