How do I tame a high-level Yutyrannus in ARK: Survival Evolved?
Taming a high-level Yutyrannus in ARK: Survival Evolved is a challenging but rewarding task. The Yutyrannus, often called the "Yuty," is a powerful carnivore known for its fear-inducing roar and ability to buff nearby allies. To tame one, you need to follow a specific process involving knockout taming, careful resource management, and strategic planning. HereÔÇÖs a detailed guide to help you succeed.
First, letÔÇÖs discuss the mechanics. The Yutyrannus is a knockout tame, meaning you must render it unconscious before feeding it the appropriate food. Unlike passive tames, where you simply offer food without aggression, the Yuty requires you to use tranquilizers to lower its torpor. Once unconscious, you can feed it its preferred food, which is raw mutton, prime meat, or kibble. Raw mutton is the most effective, followed by prime meat and kibble. Kibble made from exceptional quality eggs, such as those from a Rex or Therizinosaurus, is the best option for faster taming and higher taming effectiveness.
To begin, youÔÇÖll need to prepare the necessary resources. Gather a large supply of tranq arrows or tranquilizer darts, as the Yutyrannus has high health and torpor. A crossbow or longneck rifle is ideal for this task. YouÔÇÖll also need narcotics or biotoxin to keep the Yuty unconscious during the taming process. Additionally, stockpile raw mutton, prime meat, or kibble, depending on your preference. If youÔÇÖre using raw mutton or prime meat, bring preserving salts or a preserving bin to keep the meat fresh. Finally, consider building a taming pen to trap the Yutyrannus, as it can be difficult to tame in the open due to its aggressive nature and the presence of other predators.
Next, locate a high-level Yutyrannus. These creatures are typically found in snowy biomes, such as the Snow Dome or the northern regions of The Island map. Once youÔÇÖve found one, approach cautiously. The Yutyrannus has a fear roar that can scare your tames and cause them to flee, so itÔÇÖs best to leave your tames at a safe distance. If youÔÇÖre solo, consider using a high-level mount like a Rex or a Thylacoleo to help you take down the Yuty while staying mobile.
To knock out the Yutyrannus, start by shooting it with tranq arrows or darts. Aim for the head to maximize torpor gain. Be prepared for a fight, as the Yuty will attack you and any nearby creatures. If youÔÇÖve built a taming pen, lure the Yutyrannus into it using a fast mount like a Pteranodon or a Griffin. Once inside, close the gate and continue shooting it until it falls unconscious. Keep an eye on its torpor level and administer narcotics or biotoxin as needed to prevent it from waking up.
Once the Yutyrannus is unconscious, place the raw mutton, prime meat, or kibble in its inventory. Monitor its hunger and torpor levels closely. The taming process can take a while, especially for high-level Yutyrannus, so be patient. If youÔÇÖre in a tribe, consider having a teammate help you by gathering additional resources or keeping watch for predators. Solo players should ensure they have enough supplies and a safe environment to complete the tame.
There are several common mistakes to avoid when taming a Yutyrannus. One is underestimating its health and torpor levels, which can lead to running out of tranq arrows or darts mid-tame. Always bring extra supplies. Another mistake is not preparing for its fear roar, which can disrupt your tames and make the process more difficult. Finally, avoid taming in dangerous areas without a taming pen, as the Yutyrannus can easily escape or be killed by other predators.
For advanced techniques, consider using a trap made of metal or stone to ensure the Yutyrannus cannot break free. You can also use a taming calculator to determine the exact amount of food and narcotics needed for a high-level Yuty. Additionally, using a taming effectiveness booster, such as a soothing balm or a taming pen with air conditioning, can speed up the process and improve the YutyÔÇÖs stats after taming.
In summary, taming a high-level Yutyrannus requires careful preparation, strategic planning, and patience. Gather the necessary resources, build a secure taming pen, and use tranq arrows or darts to knock it out. Feed it raw mutton, prime meat, or kibble, and monitor its torpor and hunger levels. Avoid common mistakes like underestimating its health or taming in unsafe areas. With these strategies, youÔÇÖll successfully tame a powerful Yutyrannus to aid you in your ARK adventures.
