What are tips for yutyrannus? Tips and strategies for yutyrannus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Tamed a level 36 by luring the carno followers away, taking them out and tranquilizing her from above. Got her stuck on rocks in the process and I was high enough that the scream didnt effect my argy. Easy tame. No more than 100 narcotics, gather a bunch of prime meat while taming.
Using a small trap can help with the knockout process as they get distracted very easily.
One of the most fearsome sights to behold in a snowy wasteland is a Yuty surrounded by its consort of Carnos. If you want to tame this thing you need to be prepared, but you can tame it on the fly if you want. You will need, depending on how big trap you want:
- about 8-10 stone foundations
- about 24-28 stone door frames
- about 8-10 stairs
You just make a trap about 2x8 or 2x10 (width, length).
On one of the long sides of the trap lay your stairs and make sure to switch the stair mode to ramp.
You will need a speedy mount at least (flyer recommended). You will need to lure the carnos away from the Yuty first either over a cliff or just kill them if you have an Argy or Ptera. Once done you can lead the Yuty into your trap.
Knock it out using about 80-90 tranq arrows and a crossbow.
You then need to have either prime meat, mutton or you can use regular raw meat if you have nothing else but will take longer. (If you preparing for it then maybe good to have a fridge nearby so you can farm for prime meat and store it there and feed to Yuty once it starves). You may need up to 800 narco berries OR 350 narcotics if you tame using raw meat. But if using prime meat mainly you only need about 100 narcotics.
Net and build a trap with x3 Dino doorways and x2 gates around body. Then KO with tranq darts or narc arrows.
PS make sure their feet are inside the trap as they can stand up outside your trap.
for fast taming you can go to settings and increase the Dino Hunger to 100 it helps in increasing the speed of the taming process it is very effective.
FYI= Don't use it while riding your dinosaur ❌
To tame a Yuty I use gigant doorframes (4-6 depending on how daring you are) and 2 Doors to keep on the outer frames. Kill off the carnos and lead your Yuty into the line of frames and trap it by closing the last gate. The best is that the trap can stay after taming if you would need another Yuty since they are easy to lead with a flier as long as you keep a distance, if you use vanilla structures you can pick everything up again to place again. Also remember! Yutys are slow eaters and will need narcotics so bring a bunch to be safe and have something that can Hunt prime Meat while it tames.
Happy hunting survivor! //Dely
Trap it in a trap and get prime meat before you take it
Get to somewhere high, like a mountain, then the tranq the Yuty until it starts running, once it runs the carnos will mostly likely run away as well due to their leader going bye-bye. Then it will run in circles attacking everything except for you. Then tranq it some more, but make sure to hit it. This is at least what happened when i tamed one solo.
Snow areas best spot to find the fuzzasaurus rex careful tho
Kill carnos first then tame yutyrannus it helps a lot
Sometimes, you might unfortunately stumble upon a yuty with a alpha carno. I learnt the hard way.
Get a creature that can move faster than a Yutyrannus. I recommend a Thylacoleo with some levels into speed (since he can climb up the mountains and defend himself.) Start tranquilizing the Yuty. Most of the time he’ll be distracted by other creatures so he’ll be pretty easy to tranq. Once he starts running chase after him and shoot simultaneously. Once he’s knocked feed him some meat to tame.
There thing are so rare I was playing on medium difficultly and I can’t find one only find rexs
When you encounter one, the best way to trap it is with a snowy owl. You need to freeze the yuty and have a tribemate put 5 Dino gates around the yuty. Then you can knock it out
Bring a thyla to chase and knock out then use the thyla to protect them
Ok I see people think it is not no mobile but it is I found it in a cave on the island in the snow
