How to build a trap

What you need:

9 stone foundations,

18 stone doorframes

4 wooden ramps

6 stone walls

How to build it

First, make sure you build the trap in a safe-ish area to make sure that nothing super powerful comes and either kills you or the Yuty while it’s trapped

Place the foundations in a 3x3 shape

Place 6 doorframes on each side except for one

Place the 6 walls on the remaining side

Place the ramps on the regular wall side so that the Yuty can walk into the trap

How to tame it

Find the Yuty, kill all of its carnos, and then lead the Yuty into the trap

I recommend that you use a wyvern for this because they are not affected by the roar

Keep shooting tranqs at it till it’s knocked.

It’s torpor doesn’t drop very fast, so you don’t need too many narcs

Use whatever kind of food you want

I hope this helped! Happy taming

At lvl 140, it took 50 minutes to starve tame with 25 mutton at taming effectiveness 97.3% (+68lvl).

About 30 tranquil darts with a 210% longneck rifle and 10 trans arrows with a 241% cross bow.

It's over Anakin, I have the high ground!

You underestimate my power.

Don't try it...

Yutyrannus screaming

It really is that simple though, they can't reach you or your flier on a big enough rock, so if you don't want to make a trap you can just shoot down from a rock or cliff once the carnos are dealt with. Be ready for a goose chase once it starts running.

How to tame yutyrannus: run in the opposite direction and use a bola on your friend

I swear every time I see one it’s level 130 or more lol just my luck so now we got the best yutys on the server.

Here’s how I ko

I make a 3 by 3 foundation

Then enough doorframes to make it 2-3 tall then 4-6 ramps depending on how tall the trap is

Then I find the yuty or yutys and trap them

After that I grab my wyvern, darts and some podded ovis

Ko each yuty

Un pod the ovis

Use the wyverns ability fire, ice, poison, lightning or the others and kill the ovis then feed the mutton to the yutys

My yuty stats are 9.2k up 1930 Stam 356 damage

No mutations

Hope you get better all

The yutyrannus meaning “Feathered tyrant” is truly a force to be reckoned with. By itself it’s incredibly dangerous that’s obvious. Also the yutyrannus always spawns in with a escort of carnos that fight along side it.

So with all of that in mind, how the heck do you tame one!?

Well there is no easy way. The yutyrannus is very difficult to separate from its escort of carnos, you either have to manage to kill its escort of buffed carnos (buffed with courage), or with incredible luck, separate the yutyrannus from its carnos. (Additional warning: the carnos buffed by the yutyrannus usually target the creature the yuty targets.) thankfully Ark usually has a 3rd option. Grab your friendly neighborhood harpoon gun, and make some nets (not cast nets). And introduce the yutyrannus to your net launcher! Make sure it’s carno friends aren’t left out. When you net them, do whatever you want I usually kill them because they get up eventually. Once you net the yuty immediately knock it unconscious. Once they break free from the net there’s a cooldown preventing you from netting it again for a bit.

Once you knock it out it likes prime or extraordinary kibble. Make sure you have narcotics or biotoxin. Eventually you will have your yuty

X creatures take 3x the tranqs required to tame a normal one.

For those that don’t want to make a trap to tame this dino (due to their posse of Carnos), there are other ways!

I rode a Quetzal to taunt and draw the Yuty away from the Carnos since most stopped to attack mammoths and megatheriums.

After you get the Yuty alone, dismount your Quetzal while standing on top to fire tranqs (or other KO ammo) over the side.

Sometimes the Yuty will stand underneath the Quetzal completely, so don’t push it and accidentally fall off the side, just move the Quetzal to a better vantage point and keep going.

Once knocked out completely, I noticed the Carnos never came back to where I drew him off to making it much safer!

I don’t tend to use traps for my tames so this strat seemed easiest for me.

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.

Surprisingly you can net the yutyrannus (saved me many times)
