Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a yutyrannus? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a yutyrannus.
Mine got stuck in a rock so i shot it from a far distance till it got knocked out chances are i won't get that lucky again. Oh and if there are carnos around it they'll run when its big boi is about to be knocked out.
It is really good creature to support your creatures in a boss battle. Make sure it is behind the main attacking creatures!
The kibble to get for this is cancer. Takes a tribe to get the kibble ready.
JSYK, the no damage to large creatures bug was supposedly fixed, so try taking on a brontosaurus or something just to be safe, and if it can be killed, then go kill some gigas.
Knock it out with a longneck rifle also it’s a meat eater and also if you have a argentavias get up on a rock so it can’t attack you then tranq with tranq darts
One thing which I like to use is a good flier, because once the yutys, start torpor running they cover quite a bit of ground pretty quick and the flier will help keep up, or a fast ground mount, it would also be helpful to ride a mount that allows yuh ou to shoot while riding.
The best way is with a Wyvern and a few darts
Easiest tame of my life! Just build a 2x6 stone platforms then two stone door ways on the sides! You should need 20 stone doors. Then build a ramp out of what ever I used wood. The use a good flier like a tapy (because of stamina it might roar and scare your bird so you want tons of stamina) then just attack it and lure it in the Carnos might go in but mine didn’t so 1 more tip be warned I used a ramshackle crossbow just saying bring more arrows than Dododex says to use😬 I tamed a level 200 with this technique.
It has carnos working for it shocking tranq darts is a very good strategy but remember a l p h a c a r n o s
Approach on a bigger mount to avoid aggro and trap it using regular dino gateways. Kill excess carno and tranq as you see fit :)
Taming- ditch your Dino they will just cause problems. Kill off all of its minions. And THEN tranq it out, be careful that it doesn’t get hit, they have a low health stat and take significant damage.
Easy to trap. 3x3, 1 wall high, ramps on all sides. Lead the yuty and friends in, pick off the carnos, knock the yuty, feed, enjoy.
if you have a Spinosaurus, you can lead it with water deep enough for it to start swimming. the Spinosaurus will get away, and the Carnotaurs won’t be able to keep up with the Yutyrannus. that’s how i tamed my Yutyrannus
My go to method is 4 stone gateways, 2 gates, and 1 large bear trap. Put down gateways with enough room for a human to squeeze between. Put large bear trap inside. Get Yuty to follow you into trap. Once it steps into bear trap, run out of the trap and close the doors. Done!
I built a 4 x 7 motorboat trap. I use 25k hp argy with a good saddle and I kite yutys and gigas into the boat move the boat a slight ways off beach careful to stay in shallow water to avoid leads. Then tame at your leisure. Fyi to learn to center 4 foundations wide there is a giga boat building tutorial on youtube.
The best tactic to tame them I find is to use 4 stone Dino gates and gateways, kill the car is from afar, then lead him into the pen, have a bear trap ready to stop him from biting you as you close the gates. Then us tranq arrows. Warning: do not forget to put the gates in the gateways, they can fit through the gateways
You don’t even need any narcotics to tame this even with cocked fish meat and this is the easiest tame ever
Best way i found to knock it out,bring something to kill the carnos, get on something high enough it cant reach and leave your carno killer further back so it doesnt spook, tranq the shit outta the yuty till it knocks out, then kill the carnos after their buff wears off.
These guys are always with a bunch of carnos.
So get a wyvern !
Lure carnos away and kill them all (my wyvern does 600 damage per bite so if yours does less maybe don't kill 6 carnos at once and just lure them away)
Then lure the Yut into a dino trap.
Wyverns aren't affected by the roar effect
Well,
1. Trap it
2. Knock it out
3. Tame it
4. Ride it around like a horse.
