Location: Procoptodon is one of the fastest creatures in the game and has great stats. Players can look for these creatures around the Redwood area or in regions with plants and grasslands. This beast can spawn in most places on the island except for snowy areas. Players can use a flying tame like Argentavis to search for the Procoptodon.

Preparations: Taming a Procoptodon requires preparation, as mistimed steps can result in the monster fleeing or dying. Here's everything required to tame the beast.

  • Billboards- X6
  • Crossbow or Tranquilizer
  • Narcotics- X50
  • Rare Mushroom

Players can use a fast land or flying tame to find a Procoptodon. After locating one, they must clear the area of any aggressive creature to make the taming process more efficient. Players can use a potent tame or weapon for the process.

Trapping: After clearing the area of lethal monsters, players can wait for the Procoptodon to halt. They must wait until the beast stops as it is incredibly agile and complex to tame while moving. Players can slowly surround it with Ark Survival Ascended Billboards. They must first place the billboards before the beast and then cover the back. While it can easily be trapped with three billboards, players must carry extra.

Knockout and feed: After trapping a Procoptodon, players can use a crossbow or a tranquilizer to knock it down. They can feed it rare mushrooms to start the taming process. Players must use Narcotics, an essential in-game item, at some intervals, as topor drops quickly for this beast. Once the process is complete, players will get their own Procoptodon.
