BarbSlim Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 Anybody playing ark on Xbox one on the center map have a reliable area for Tapejara spawns? I've only encountered about 2 randomly flying in the vicinity of blue ob. Is there a reliable area that they spawn or are they just a rarer type of spawn. Been dying to get my hands on one but haven't been able to effectively find a high enough level due to the elusiveness of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coopdog72 Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 I have a level 96 who like to hover around the same location on my game. Its extremely skittish and I find it even more difficult that a quetz to tame. I will keep trying though!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If its close to the ground and you get a chance, bola it and shoot it in they eye. they go down pretty quick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BarbSlim Posted November 30, 2016 Author Share Posted November 30, 2016 I'll take a look around these areas. Any validity to rumors saying that Tapejara can land facing down if you back up into the surface your trying to latch onto? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilShadow Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 whatever you do, if you manage to bola one, do not use a crosboow with tranq arrow. you will kill it be fore you knock it out. ive had this happen 3 times, longneck + dart is the way to go with these.

Rintrahhh Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 I play single player so getting them is very difficult alone, same with a quetz. I got mine on scorched earth. I happened to find one that trapped itself in a cave near the red obelisk. It was easy to bola and then tranq dart as ilShadow suggested. Then I transferred it to the Center. If you only play on the Center and you're alone, then I'd suggest being very patient till you find one that has trapped itself in a cliff or spire then try to tranq it. Definitely use a bola if you can Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m4Marci Posted November 30, 2016 Share Posted November 30, 2016 It helps to crouch while approaching them, especially if you don't have gullie armor. Imagine them having a similar aggro range to a raptor, and that's about how close you can get before they fly off. Bring plenty of bolas (at least 10) so you can get the aim right. Also they're bigger than they look from afar, so adjust accordingly! You can use arrows, just be careful and wait a second between each shot. And go for headshots!

rpicardi1 Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 On the Center map on PC. Of all places, the East side of North Tropical this evening there were two of them. Also the first horse like creatures and a Moschop on the south beach. There were three Pachyrhinosaurus stuck in the obelisk base of South Tropical. Keep looking. They will show up unexpectedly.
