Man… that was probably the most painful taming video you have made lol ok it’s in the top ten for sure. There is %100 chance I’m not taming one lol Still a great video man thanks.
Tamed a 145 on 3x today, couple of tips: Take plenty of grenades/C4 n be prepared to do a few rides just to get closer to nodes. I flew along the back side of the desert n marked on my map all the salt nodes before I started, they give more torpor than rocks. Its a long process how ever you do it thou 🤣🤦
I also tamed a 145 a couple days after the map launched, I think our server is on 5x taming but it still took probly an hr and a half to knock out. Mapping the salt nodes in the desert is a good idea. I tamed mine next to the wyvern trench. There are a bunch of oasis salt deposits in the dunes. As you saw bones also work pretty good but avoid skulls and ribcages they can dismount you. Also if you put wells on the water veins you won’t get dismounted he’ll just bounce off it. They are pretty cool tames. Fast underground and the quicksand attack does a bunch of damage. They also harvest flint from any hard resource and the tail flick attack can scare off some predators even rexs
So I did a little research on my own, but haven't been able to test due to being at work.. from what I can see. Bones and Salt piles are going to give you the most torpor. Metal nodes will give you a decent bit more than regular rock and regular rock gives you the smallest amount. So if you try again keep that in mind
The bones don't always work and will kick you off as happened in the video. The problem with the salts is they are very far apart and usually have the little water wells with them which dismount you or buildings which do the same. Don't think I will try taming them again anytime soon as it was a huge waste of an hour and half with the current mechanics
@BemoGuinness I totally agree. The don't have enough certainty in how the mechanics work for them. I agree with what you said in the video. Get rid of the go wild mechanic and just give you control. Hit the wrong thing or not in enough time then dismount
@@BemoGuinnessIf you build a well over the water it stops that, also , if you hop between oasis in the desert(trees and green) they always have alot of salt. Nooblets released a video , very comprehensive
It’s not too bad once you get it down. It took 15 min to knock out a 145 once I had the salt nodes in the dunes memorized and there’s enough bones and random rocks to keep taming him in one go without getting kicked off. The first time was def the worst learning where to go. Quick tip if you have a rhyniogathia you can pick it up and take where you want
@@BemoGuinnessI marked on map every salt patch I found and no they is many that have huge salt rocks no ruins I hit a rock then dashed for a patch then repeat again for next
@@BemoGuinness Sorry for the late response Beno. If you start by the southern red drop in the desert. Youll see the salt fields. If you start heading northeast in the desert. Youll find more fields. Between the fields youll find bone fields. Which will help ypu keep control to hit the next field. I hope this helps if you try to tame one again🙂
metal ore gives the most torpor, but not always easy to find in the desert, best bet is salt, only run into rocks to reset the green bar to full, just go from one oasis to another. avoid anything solid, cliffs, construction etc
If you really want one I’d highly recommend watching Nooblets guide, it’s truly invaluable on this tame. As well as the oasisaur. Was a heck of a video though. It’s a perfect example of your saint levels of patience Bemo. Lol
@@BemoGuinness I feel you there. Even knowing exactly how to do it after watching the guide I still noped out myself. Just didn’t see much point other than to have one in single player. Probably never have a phoenix either lol though I’ve heard they’re much more common in asa.
I went over 5k hours in ASE and never saw one but have seen about 20 or so total Phoenix in ASA so it's is for sure a ton easier to find them now. Taming is still a bit of a task but very much more doable than ASE
@@BemoGuinness That is good news. Currently on the hunt for an alpha worm to get the helmet skin. Then may have to start keeping a better eye on out on the phoenix.
Only ever seen one Alpha Deathworm myself. Was about to pass it up but decided to kill it at the start of a video and good thing cause I haven't seen anymore
So, from what I've seen, using salt piles works much better than rocks. Like you said, marking the little salt patches and oasis in the middle of the dessert would work, while having a flyer tailing you all the time, so that if you're dismounted you can de-aggro easily and mount it again. That way it "shouldn't" be so painful, in theory, at least. Still, I do think taming these things might be one of the most annoying taming mechanics in all of ARK so far xD
I haven't watched the whole video yet, so maybe you discover this, but I saw in someone else's video that salt nodes give the most torpor, and the lower the control bar, the more control you have with the mouse, and also they hardly lose torpor when you get kicked off, if at all. It looks like a massive pain in the butt though, a la andrewsarchus.
He's faster in the ground than he is on land when in the ground and run into a rock once tamed he gets Flint. Other than that he's decent at harvesting meat but imo it's not worth it
I tamed a 130 in SP think it’s a great tame but deffo frustrating just grateful that the torpor doesn’t reset. But your right would be better if you had a warning.
They're honestly so ridiculous to tame. On our server our levels go up to 300 and I found a 280 that I tried to take. 2.5 hours in, about 5 mins away from the final knockout and she kicked me off hitting a solid rock and killed me. I spawned back in 100 meters away and she was GONE. I searched for ages after and never found her. I was so choked
Oooh also I heard that if you wanna hit the salt nodes near the natural wells, put an actual well there and the lizards will bounce off instead of throwing you off. Just what I heard but worth a try lol @@BemoGuinness
I know this is a random question but are you supposed to buy the DLC or does it give you it for free for already owning it I'm still stuck with a PS4 so I don't get any of that cool unreal engine what is scorched Earth free
So the way ASA works is you buy ARK: Survival Ascended and all the maps are free as they release. They are not separate like ASE was. Now for them to make extra money since the DLC's are free they have the Frontier DLC pack for $30USD which includes bonus stuff for SE, Aberration & Extinction so pretty much $10USD per map but paid all at once up front
Amargasaurus is also a pain to tame but would rather deal that that one personally than this creature. Just wish they didn't have the weird side saddle
Ok so for a moment, I thought the lizard was a godzilla monster in the thumbnail, that one monster I think it was called Godzilla versus kingkong? Also busted taming mechanics? Man what a surprised in a game with half assed development. Also a taming method that is an absolute pain in the ass.

Still a great video man thanks.
It was a painful day for sure 😩
Did you forget the pike in the mantis inventory?
I don't want to talk about it 👀🙈
From what i have heard is that sulfur and salt rocks increases the torpor bar by alot compared to normal rocks
Holy heck that was something else man, tough day but if were easy, it’d be boring
Nice Video dude. You definitely have more patients than me lol

Could you not use re-fertiliser to respawn the salt nodes over and over@@WalterEKurtz-kp2jf
@@borzoilover4156 I suppose, but that's alot of resources while you're in the desert taming a giant angry land croc
I was told that salt rocks tame him faster. I noticed when you was taming the torpor went up more when you hit the bones.

You need to run them into salt and metal nodes. Rocks are for resetting the green bar.

Thanks for doing the hard part. I will not be taming one of those unless they fix it.
I really hope they tweak it a little bit 🙈
Hey bemo do you have tips to run the game with more fps ? I have a better config but the game is still lagging
I have 32 ddr5 ram ryzen 7 7800 3DX and 4070 ti
Use frame gen. I have a 4080 as well

If you tame them over by the Wyvern area they are much easier to tame,you have to hit a bunch of big rocks in a row and they get a lot of torpal

Yea I hated the Andrewsarchus taming method as well
Does the Narcotic Tripwire work to add extra torpor? I will have to try that out
Don't think so but I am 99.9% sure nothing that would normally add torpor will work as that would just bypass the intended mechanics
He's faster in the ground than he is on land when in the ground and run into a rock once tamed he gets Flint. Other than that he's decent at harvesting meat but imo it's not worth it
That's what I was worried about. Ton of time taming and it not be worth it in the end 🙈
Thanks!
I appreciate the channel support! This thing was a pain trying to get it tamed. Not sure if I will ever go through that again for one or not 🙈
I tamed a 130 in SP think it’s a great tame but deffo frustrating just grateful that the torpor doesn’t reset. But your right would be better if you had a warning.
Yea luckily it doesn't reset or drop down when dismounted
Not sure I am going to try that any time soon... great video. I guess it is time to relax 😅
😄
u should check every bag from things u kill u can find a higher level treasure map sometimes
Ahh I thought those came from drops. Will check bags as I am looking for a few more
So it's sort of like the concavenator from garuga's mod?
Yea pretty much

Very nice and yea the pain is real 🙈
I still the amargasaur is the worst tame but this is a top three for a creature that is actually useful

can u stack the barrels?
Not sure. Will try to remember to check
Definitely not an "easy tame", don't know if that creature is even worth the effort. Will skip it for now.
Yea will be a very long time before I try to tame one again if I ever do
I 3 150s on official if you need help I'd be happy to

Stupid way of taming. The little amount of torpidity is from the rocks is stupid
Now that you have tried getting the Faso I can say with doing this myself I found slamming them into metal or crystal dose way more torpor.
Where are you going for the nodes though? I don't know anywhere that has a bunch together that is accessible by the Faso
