Melcreif Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 I tried taming one with beer last night, and of course it's currently during an evolution event. It took the first 2 beer no problem, then just didn't ever want to take another one for maybe 10 minutes until an Allo came along and chomped him up. Is this guy glitched for taming? Any workarounds?

Volunteer Moderator GP Posted February 14, 2017 Volunteer Moderator Share Posted February 14, 2017 Yup, on my Center server I have attempted to tame 3 different Chalicos and each and every time it takes the first beer and never wants the next one. I left it 2 mins (meant to be 1m20s intervals), then I left it 5 mins, 10 mins, 20 mins and every time I go back to it, it doesn't want the next one. I have given up on taming Chalicos, if it can't manage more than one beer then it is a lightweight! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Volunteer Moderator Captnmorgan Posted February 14, 2017 Volunteer Moderator Share Posted February 14, 2017 well I guess now I won't be taming one today Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may have been some lag or something that took longer. Last night a lot of issues on PS4 network. So if you were on that I know for sure it was network issues. Sorry no he took 2 pretty quick, but after that about 10 minutes went by and he wouldn't take a 3rd. Then of course the Allo came by for lunch. Not sure what the deal was but I'm on Xbox not PS4. Annoying I really want one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jostabeere Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 Always cage non-violent tames if you can. It makes it much less frustrating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Putting it in a restricted area is a bad idea as it is likely to turn at any moment. By the way, to the OP, although i've failed to tame a Chalico on 3 different occasions on my server, someone else on my server has tamed at least 2, one male and one female without any problems. So not quite sure what is causing the issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually ended up agroing him on purpose at one point because someone else I read had recommended it to get him out of his I'm not hungry phase. didn't seem to work...

I considered trying that myself, but agroing him, even if it worked, would cause the efficiency to drop wouldn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This made me laugh! I can confirm that it is totally bugged. I couldn't feed some as well, if you tell them to sit down, they'll stand up after 5 seconds, I brought one for taming to the eastern shore because it's safe and it went totally stupid. It moved with the speed of a turtle, didn't aggro on me and kept on walking into the same tree for the whole taming process - so yeah, this was the only 150 I managed to tame.

So not quite sure what is causing the issue. I have only tamed 2 Chalicos yet. One was 116 and other 145. Both times I picked one up with a Quetz and dropped it into a small stone pen. Then sneaked up and build thatch walls so he is stuck in a corner. Then you either break one wall to get LoS or you feed it through the thatch wall. If it aggroes, you fly out of render distance and wait for a minute. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lumitesi Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 Okay, firstly, passive tames are buggy af. But they're here to stay so trapping them like said above is the Best way to make them less frustrating. Second, when taming a chalico, make sure to clear a 2 mile radius around. Aggros on wild dinos on the first few bites will reset progress so grab a sword and kill them dilos. After that always be 2steps infront of it making sure nothing is in the way. Third, while taming my chalico, it aggroed my Argy due to a distraction, and it didn't lose any effectiveness. So I guess you could aggro once or twice a and be fine. Lastly, I've had a Diplo not take food for more than 20m.. Sometimes it bugs out. Left him, went around looking for other dinos, came back after 30m and tame went as normal. So my advice is, if it's a good lvl and you really want it, stick with it. If not try another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fewcm Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 I tame mine by agroing them, luring them into a taming pin then putting ceilings 2 walls up (leave gap to access Chalico) or hatch frame, them fly out of render distance to loose agro. Come back, crawl along ceiling above (2 walls high) and tame. Keeps both of us safe and he won't agro when I'm crawling above him. Had one instance where I caught 2 in the trap at once so had to build a wall between them, tamed one let him out of pen then tamed the other. I put a doorway at the 2 wall height to outside of the pin, then a platform with ladder access, and place a box to hold the beer since I can't carry enough to tame a 150 at once. I use the same pin to take wolves and rex's. After taming the chalicos I just destroy the ceilings. Then put extra ceilings in the box in case I find another one.

BobbleHead30 Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 I tamed a 100 Female today, it took the first beer then took 5 mins to take the second. After that it took the regular 1 and a half minutes to drink. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JetJaguar Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 ive got 3x of them; all 145 tames on an official PVE server. I used the ghillie suit and the stew that makes you semi-invis. They take the first beer and then it takes ages for the second one. They are a tediously long tame but I don't think they are bugged per say.
