Is there a place to find taming information for everything?
Currently trying to tame a jabberwock and have no idea what it needs, is there a place I don't know of that has taming information for the dinos in the mod?

check the discussions on this mod. if you need a small tip to tame this specific creature, you could ask me if you want.

I did look, didn't see a discussion about taming the jabberwock so I don't know what it eats. Nor the Mira other than the Mira can eat element but I don't have that in my game right now. I'm on ragnarok so I can't get the stuff you mentioned in the other post to tame her with, what is easy to get that will work with her? With azarion I don't even know where he spawns, the pinned discussion says TBA, what does that mean? I assumed it meant To Be Added, but another discussion has the author telling someone how to tame it so its in the game right?

Also, are all the dragons supposed to be so rare? I've had to spawn wild ones in just to tame them because none will spawn, I've got over 35 hours on my solo ragnarok world and have only seen one fatalos and one jabberwock. Sorry for throwing all these questions at you lol

it's ok, don't worry i like answering questions, but i don't know everything about the mod.


what you have going on in ragnarok with the spawns is weird, i think ragnarok is one of the best maps to use the mod, since i always find dragons there (not to mention the other critters from the mod) so this should be a bug or maybe another mod causing trouble with the spawns. but you are going to take a lot of time just to find that out by yourself if you have other mods.

i suggest you use the simplespawners mod or keep spawning them in. (by the way, most dragons can reach level 180-190, its a bit easy to know; look for anything that looks or behaves like the dragon boss from the island or anything that has wyvern features).

also, the dragons, the more powerful they get, the rarer they are. finding a mira and specially one with good level is going to be a really tedious task and this is just a mira, imagine how hard it is to find a miralosaur or any black dragon, only 1 or 2 shall be on the map because of how rare they are, sadly.

i suggest using the dino finder mod for this, as you are going to explore for hours and hours looking for what might be a level 100 jabberwock. that and mix it with the "destroywilddinos" command, if you feel like not cheating that much to get the creatures.


for the jabberwock, i really can't remember what it eats, but to even get to that point, you need to kill one and use the item it drops to camouflage yourself from a new one, and then you can start feeding that new one (passive tame). i'm really sure this dragon eats element, but as with all dragons, you might try using raw mutton or for this one, rotten meat.

i really suggest you to use the awesome spyglass mod, at least without the "creature outlines" options, because it tells you what a creature eats by aiming at it, and also if it is a passive tame or a knockout tame. this is because there are some creatures that eat very specific things and others that you can tame via knockout and passive tame (if it shows the torpor bar, and says "passive tame" then you should try the knockout method first).

also, the author of the mod is a bit weird with the discussions from mods (a bit lazy) and doesn't update the discussions on his mods frequently.

also, a small tip. you can get element using this mod by defeating the world bosses (you can summon them also, so look in the engrams for "golems") and by defeating any black dragon or sentinel dragon malus or aquarius. the easiest one is the rock golem, and you should also try defeating the arch tempered bosses wich you can summon with the arch tempered carno spawner (look for the engram in your inventory)

black dragons and mira can also eat gacha crystals, element dust and i think they also eat element shards (you can get element dust by harversting enforcing drakes from this mod and tek creatures from vanilla ark). they also eat sulphur, but you can't really feed them sulphur because you can't put that in your hotbar and they are passive tames only.



i hope this helps you somehow, because with my bad english, bad writing and bad memory i can't do too much.

I only have one other dino mod, the ancient dragons and wyverns mod. So I don't think it would be preventing the world from spawning some of these creatures.

I did Finally just download super spyglass so I don't need to spend time looking up their diet anymore lol. I found a 170 fatalos early on and there was actually a youtube video about taming it and it seems just regular crystal is either the best or just good, do you mean regular crystal instead of gacha? I spawned a Mira in and tried gacha crystals like you said they eat but it doesn't eat it.

Also, can I solo an arch tempered boss with my fatalos? I found a hellraiser and wanted to tame it but the discussion said I need a drop from a boss to tame one despite the spyglass mod saying I can just mutton tame it, do I really have to fight a boss to tame a hellraiser? Kind of dumb considering taming a fatalos is easier.
Amaryllion 31 Oct, 2023 @ 10:43pm 
Also, would a typical wyvern trap work to trap the hellraiser for taming? What would you suggest for trapping it?
Nax-V0 1 Nov, 2023 @ 2:14pm 
yes, kind of over-complicated to tame a hellraiser.

to tame a hellraiser you need to tranq the dragon and then force feed the purple power stone the arch tempered bosses drop, and then you can feed raw mutton to the dragon. to trap the dragon.. a common wyvern trap in a bigger scale with thin spaces to let a human or a parasaur go trough, an harpy or a worm might be good options to lure the dragon into the trap, or maybe drain it's stamina with a kapro? i usually tank the creatures to tame them, so i would recommend the fatalos if you can shoot while riding it. the fatalos should be immune to fire.

you should be able to solo the arch-tempered bosses with fatalos, but watch out for some area attacks and prepare beds or something like that, because bosses on this mod have a tendency to kill riders from their mounts. also, level up your fatalos a lot.

maybe i was wrong with the gacha crystals for taming mira and confused the mira taming method with black dragon's. it should be one of the best options for taming black dragons because of taming %, but if normal crystals work, then use those.

i'm really sorry about the spawning issue, i really don't know what is causing that issue, maybe that specific mod is causing that issue, because some mods do that. maybe try playing without other dino mods and go explore the map for a bit and see if it works. the "normal thing" is to find at least one black dragon and uncommonly, things like wyvern-like creatures or ground creatures from the mod, like i said, they are rare and finding a powerful creature from this mod might take you days of searching (i did).
Amaryllion 4 Nov, 2023 @ 6:45am 
Yeah I don't know, if it is that mod then I'm probably just going to deal with it because I like the creatures from it. But on another note, where can I find the smoke breath dragon on lost island and fjordur? I saw one in the volcano biome on rag but I've switched to fjordur and have another separate save on lost island that I let my brother play on. Haven't seen any in the volcanos on either map, can they spawn in desert biomes?
Nax-V0 4 Nov, 2023 @ 1:59pm 
you should not play lost island with creature mods. most creature mods don't work there properly for some reason, and this causes creatures from mods to almost not spawn, but maybe try the desert biome if you still want to. fjordur has no desert, so the volcano, the grasslands (big open fields, not the ones from asgard) and the forest where the blue obelisk is should be the places where you could find this creature, the worst being the forest and the best being the volcano. they do spawn in desert biomes, so if there is thorny dragons, you should be able to find these smoke dragons there.

Hello! Do you by any chance have any knowledge on how the taming of a pesutobeara works?? The description for it says that like fatalos it will agro the player and become untamable if approached but then I am also supposed to passively tame it?? How am I suppose to feed it without getting close and earning agro. Doesn't make much sense, if u can drop some tips on fatalos it's appreciated too

for any black dragon, try getting close to the more "external" body parts of the creature. fatalos, and alarion, for example, can be fed if you interact with the wings, instead of getting close to the legs. pesutobeara can be fed if you interact with the tail, so you don't get close enough to aggro.

just try to get as far from the center of the creature's body as possible. try interacting with the extreme of their wings or tails. don't get close to any part on the front of the creature. like the arms or frontal legs. stay behind or by the sides, crouching and running away if it faces you.
