The results below show total taming time, effectiveness, and bonus levels for the Brontosaurus at your selected level and food. Higher-quality foods yield more bonus levels.

Below is a breakdown of knockout weapon requirements for the Brontosaurus across various creature levels. Always pace your shots. Torpor takes time to apply, and over-shooting can be lethal.

To simplify the knockout, immobilize the Brontosaurus first with Bear Trap or Large Bear Trap.

Below are the narcotic requirements for keeping the Brontosaurus sedated throughout taming. Bio Toxin is twice as potent as Narcotics (80 vs 40 Torpor per use), while Narcoberries work in a pinch at just 7.5 Torpor each. With Torpor draining at 0.3/s, don't wait until the bar is nearly empty to apply narcotics.

Use the torpor and starve timers to track your Brontosaurus tame in real time. Torpor monitoring prevents premature wakeups. The starve timer is for the starve-tame method - let Food drop, then load all kibble at once to avoid waste.

Found throughout the ARKs, the Brontosaurus is a tamable, herbivore creature in ARK: Survival Ascended. Classified under the Farmer group.

At 2,277 base HP, the Brontosaurus is a proper tank. Dealing 100% base Melee Damage, the Brontosaurus brings respectable melee power to the table. Stamina sits at 240 base, providing decent staying power. A base Weight of 1600 means an enormous weight pool.

Taming the Brontosaurus requires rendering it unconscious first - use Tranq Arrows, Darts, or Shocking Tranq Darts to apply torpor. Feed it Exceptional Kibble for the fastest tame and highest effectiveness bonus.

Once tamed, the Brontosaurus is a practical workhorse - it can both gather and haul resources efficiently. It reproduces by laying eggs, which must be incubated between 28°C and 31°C. Defeating one in the wild grants 22 base XP. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.79 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
