The vial can be analysed at the Chem bench when it's powered with electric and gas. Reading the vial's item description will show you the wild stats of the Dino. After that it doesn't really serve a purpose atm.

A sort of one-use field kit for that might be nice. Finding a dino, getting blood, traveling back and forth, takes a lot of time.

Some item that is consumed on use with an appropriate cost that allows you to check in the field would make that process much more elegant, while still being quite a bit of effort between aggroing the dino with the blood draw and having to escape it without killing it to analyze the sample safely.

I mean...you could always just put the chem bench on a quetz with a generator and keep it with you at all times.

Due to the actual functionality of the darts and vial, they're actually intended to not be able to be made and used on the fly. The idea behind them is they need to be taken back to the lab to be studied.

There might be some other mods on the workshop that function as portable chem benches though. They could perhaps provide what you're looking for.

i'm wondering if they'll work on tamed dinos to show their initial wild stats aswell, would definately be a great thing =)

On tamed creatures, it shows wild stats + those gained after taming bonuses.

as seperate charts or the summary?

Just the totals. If you happen to shoot one before and one after taming, you can compare the two.

well ok, that's not really what i had in mind, but well, guess i'll need to find some other way to get the wild stats from my tames

Yeah, they're more so designed to determine if a wild creature is worth taming.

But after tame creature have another base (wild) stats. It take some additional points to random stats just after tame.
I mean, you may find mediocre wild dino, but after taming have top attack, for example. Scarce chance, but...

It swings in roundabouts. A high melee damage wild dino could end up getting all its taming bonus in a different stat, or it could also get the majority of them in melee too.

Taking a sample both pre and post tame would allow you an in game way to compare stats, as opposed to using something external.

How do you make it work though? i don't get a blood vial after shooting the dart at a dino..
