This tip will show you how to tame a Yi Ling, since I’ve not seen anyone post something like this yet.

So you’ll need the following:

High durability armour

A lot of Plant Species Z fruit

A handful of narcotics or bio toxin

Once you acquire everything you need, head to anywhere near rivers/lakes in the green zone on aberration since they most commonly spawn there, when you find one it would be best to be at a flat surface. You will also need to clear out any other wild Dinos or Yi Ling that you aren’t trying to tame, once you do that you’ll have to let it pelt you with it’s feathers, when you get pelted with around above 30 feathers it will spin in the air then divebomb onto you and you’ll need to time throwing a Plant Species Z fruit at it when it does so.

If you do this successfully then the Yi Ling will become stunned, walk up to it and feed it either narcotics or bio toxin which will increase its torpor bar depending on which of the two you’re using, you’ll have to rinse and repeat this process depending on the level of the Yi Ling until it knocks out. Once unconscious, feed it it’s preferred taming food which is Exceptional Kibble and if you don’t have access to the kibble Raw Mutton will work just as well

I hope this helps anyone in the future for those that are stuck trying to tame one, get to it fellow survivors

Make a 2x2 with stone foundations and 2 rows high of single doorframes all around. Get your feather stacks up to 30 then stand in the middle of the trap. When Yi Ling does the dive it will now be hindered and get stuck for a second or 2 in the doorframe giving way more time to z fruit it. The stacks of feather will not consume because it cant hit you, making the dives more frequent and not waiting again from 1 stack.

So I’ve checked the tips and I saw a few things missing so here are some tips to taming this thing. This is all without a trap because using a trap is boring and it ruins the game.

So when throwing the fruits, point your camera as much down as you can, while still being able to see the yi ling. this way when it dives you hit the ground and he gets hit by the explosion.

Second, keeping an eye on the feather count may be hard, so check if the yi ling can dive by looking at the trail when it flies. If it is red, he can dive at any moment. If you don’t stun him by missing, he does a lot of damage. This could one or two-shot you. So always have good armor on. And have some sleeping bags nearby.

So uhhh, that’s kinda all I have to say. Get that arrow pointing to the sky if this helped you!

To Tame bring:

- Good Flak

- Good riot/metal shield 🛡️

- Narcotics or Biotoxin

- A bunch of Plant Z flashbangs

- Food/Kibble

Process:

You need to tank it's fathered attack until your feathered count is greater than 30.

It will try to Dash you (flying dash), if it lands just tank attacks.

Once it dashes you, you need to throw a flashbang (the timing has to be perfect)

If you manage to flash it, it will stop for a while and you feed it Narcs/Biotoxin (have it on your last slot).

Repeat process until its knocked down.

Feed it.

Done.

Difficulty, I'd say it's a 3 or 4 out of 5 depending on your equipment.

I have tamed dozens of these. A 145 will require up to 10 feeds on 1x while a low level can be 2-3 feeds. The biggest issue I run into is when the yi ling flies away or doesn't unlatch after reaching 30 feathers and keeps shooting you. Get out of field of view and she should return to normal. Sometimes you have to restart feather timer if she won't stop shooting from a latch position. Also if they run into trap walls and don't fly up, back out of trap and give her 50 ft of room between you two. Hope this helps

First have high durability armor, plant species z fruit, and bio toxin and go to the green zone, find one and let it shoot 30 or 40 feathers. Once it tries to dive bomb you time the plant species z fruit and when it gets stunned run to it and feed it the bio toxin. ( put the bio toxin in the last box which is 9 or > for ps5 or it’s < and have the fruit in 1 or < spot for ps5 ) rinse and repeat until you have it knocked out.
