Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a yutyrannus? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a yutyrannus.
I feel like this is a given but do NOT use an argy to try to lead it into a trap it will just get freaked out and youll lose control of your bird.
Rather build the trap large enough to hold both a rex and the yuty (make sure the rex has impeccable health just in case) and then lead the yuty in the trap and stand on the ramp just close enough to cryo your rex. Also make sure your rex is on passive or your yuty will probably die.
I would say that I know the best way to tame one, all you need is:
4 stone gateways
4 stone gates
1 large bear trap
You will need to place the gateways in a square shape and leave just a small space between each, then put a large bear trap in the middle, now you will need to shoot the yuty and sit just behind the bear trap.
Once the yuty gets close you will need to back away a bit, the yuty should get stuck in the bear trap, now that it's stuck you should place a gate on each of the gateways so that it can't get out, now all you need to do is shoot it with tranqs through the gaps I told you to leave, and, boom you have a yuty!
4 Stone gateways with 2 gateway doors is all you need to trap one, just put them in order with tiny gaps so you can get out.. put the first door on and then go and shoot him, get him after you and as soon as he in, put the second door behind him and go out the gaps, easy as can be 👍
What you have to do is bring 4 metal billboards and 3 large traps 🪤 next get the attention of the yuty by shooting with a tranq. Then run in the trap that you made and place the large traps quickly next once the yuty is stuck in the bear traps place a bear trap behind the yuty so it’s trapped. If carnos spawn here is how to deal with them make a stone tower or 2 stone pillars and a ladder 🪜 next idk if carnos go bye bye after you tranq out the yuty put if they don’t and you have to kill em bring a high lv dienocus (idk how to spell it) becuse its bite hit box is small unlike the gigas so it want hit the yuty and bam place the mutton in that bad Boi and u got yourself a yuty enjoy 😉
Don't use a flyers to tame one of these guys you will get fear woared
Don't worry he won't bite just look how fluffy he is
They fight everything they see, even if their Carno friends are not around. If you see a high level Yuty you have to act quick, before it tries to solo a pack of Dire Wolfes or a Rhino couple.
Best way to stop it from starting beef with everything in the area is to use a net gun on it if you got access to it (you can craft it on any map if bought the Genesis Season Pass).
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.
They are the king of the Rexes, tame these instead of Rexes
You find lots of them on valguero
The best way to tame it is to basically make a argy trap with 4 gates instead of 3 and with larger gaps and from there just keep tranqing it make sure if using a crossbow and its 130 or above it will possibly need a second crossbow
Don’t go out to tame it on raptor or something. Sit high up, not on a bird, and tranq it out! None of it’s allies can get you.
Hope it helped. :)
Yuttyranus are actually not to hard to tame just build a 3x3 stone taming pen and then without a tame lure it inside make sure you have stuff nearby and a bed in case you die once it’s in it can never get in out so if the carnos are a problem you can take your time to kill them knocking them out is pretty easy and the rest of the tame just goes like taming a rex
I was lvl 80 and she was lvl 35, I just ran in circles in between trees so she’d get stuck while shooting her with tranq darts.
Wanna tame this fluffy predator? I’m going to tell you step by step how to tame one!; 1 for this tame you are definitely going to need some supplies, this is of course what I recommend bringing! I recommend a net gun, at least 5, this is because when a yutyrannus spawns in, they have 3/4 Carnos that spawn with them! Make sure to bring more nets just in case! If you don’t have access to the net gun the best bet for you is a trap, or the chaotic way! If you are low leveled I would recommend useing the trap as it’s a safe way of getting the yuty to stay in a specific area for safety and easy taming! You need 4 stone gates, and gateways, and like the Giga you place three in a box shape, and save the last one, put the beartrap in the middle of the trap once the yuty gets stuck on the trap run in behind it and put the final gate and gateway down! The chaotic way involves running arround tryna knock it out! Ok let’s back tack for a second I’m getting of the topic I was talking about. Ok For this tame you will need At least 200 narcotics or toxin, 200 is just to be safe as they’re torpor goes down slightly quicker that the Rex’s, I also strongly recommend bringing kibble, or prime (mutton works great as well) also pack tranq darts, and a good ‘old rifle! 2 spawn locations! These guys spawn on almost every map, aberration is the only one excluded from having yutys. I notice that most of the yutys I find spawn in the Antarctic regions, the map I find them most commonly at has to be crystal isles! Anyways now it’s time for 3 There are quite a few ways this could go wrong so i would suggest having a backup plan in case things go south! For this it would be ok to bring a tame with you, i suggest a flying mount! Also make sure if your on lost island to pack a few parachutes! I can list a few things you should be careful about taming this creature; 1, it’s fear roar, it will give you a debuff and if your riding a small creature it will panic and fly everywhere without warning regardless if your riding it or not! 2 it’s Carno gang, it’s carnos will get a dmg and resistance buff when the yuty roars, making them a dangerous threat, I recommend a net gun to get them out of the way then dispatch them later! (Feel free to tame the high levels if you want :D) 3 the yuty, the yuty being a carnivore uses it gang of carnos to help it in battle, and it’s most common prey is mammoths once it attacks something it will not stop chasing it unless it sees some easier prey, and as mammoths are docile, they will go after the yuty, This will end poorly for the yuty, so when this happens if you desire to tame that yuty you will have to help it kill the creatures tryna kill it! (These are just a list of possible mishaps, they are just common mistakes not all of these will happen, but sometimes one of these will and that’s just part of learning! :D) Now the knockout! I recommend a flyer to safely scout the area for a yuty, I recommend taming a higher level, if you plan on doing a boss! Having trouble finding one? Then listen carefully as you fly arround as the main giveaway of a yutyrannus’s position it’s of course its roar, you can here it from a distance and they are pretty easy to spot! Next if you are a low level you will have a choice trap or nets, the nets are the safer option to take everything down easily, with a trap you have to maneuver the yuty in with out the carnos getting in or coming after you! So I recommend armorif you plan on doing this! If you plan on netting, make sure nothing is after the yuty, if it’s all clear, shoot the carnos down first, and if you want to try to lead it somewhere I guess that’s alright, but I recommend knocking it out where it was, once you happy where the yuty is slap it with a net, and shoot it in the head with tranqs, be careful not to over do it! Once it’s out, that’s the hardest part done, now to feed it, kibble works best, but good quality meat works great too, I recommend mutton or prime, if you have no prime then luckily for you the carnos you used a net on, have a little bit of prime, it’s not a lot but it should be enough to tame it! Make sure you feed it some narcotics here and there and eventually you tamed the fluffiest predator on the ark! Congrats, but why to tame this? Here’s some good reasons it’s great! :D) 1. Fear roar, no matter what tame you have other than humans, they give a temporary special buff, this buff increases damage output, and put some resistance to input! Making this fluffy creature a common tame for boss slayers, also a decently fast mount, and a decent damage output, Very clearly this tame was meant for the boss battles and pvp wars, but it can be repurposed for whatever fulfills you! Happy taming! And take care!
Always spawns with at least 3 Carnos and can buff them when hunting something or fighting you, if you have friends some people take out the carnos while 1 or 2 tranq it. If you don’t have friends kill the carnos first then tranq the yutyrannus,
Knocking out this creature either requires a trap or finding a place to trap it either in between trees or rocks, for example yesterday I was taming one and I was able to trap it between two rocks and gian alot of headshots but the only problem was that it ran forever before I was able to knock it out. Next time I will probably use a trap.
I actually tamed 2 of these, pretty easy. Only 70-120 tanq darts to knock these out and 1000-2200 narcotics. I basically breed these for fun, they have amazing damage, weight and health, better than a giga, but worse than a Titanosaurus.
We need breeding tips! This should be a necessity.
If you see one make a stone gateway trap then traq it then feed it prime meat look in the snowy mountains I found and tamed a lvl 90 there if this helped point on the arrow facing up
