CreatureShoulder Pet

The Featherlight is a small flying shoulder pet that passively tames and reduces inventory weight for certain resources. It excels as a portable storage companion due to its passive taming and weight reduction traits. Players tame it to carry heavy resources more efficiently while exploring or farming.
It can be immobilized with a Bola or Bear Trap to begin passive taming.

Featherlight uses passive taming, requiring no knockout. Feed it Plant Species Z Seed directly from your inventory to gain affinity. Auric Mushroom also works but provides significantly less affinity per use.
Taming takes about 1 minute with Plant Species Z Seed and requires no narcotics. Use the calculator below for your settings.

Featherlight has a +120% weakness to Instant HurtDinos, making it extremely vulnerable to dino-based attacks. It is fully resistant to Radiation and Mining Drill Harvest, taking no damage from these sources. Melee attacks with a metal weapon exploit its +55% weakness, dealing significantly more damage.
The Head has a damage multiplier of 3x, making it the optimal target for efficient knockout or elimination. Focus attacks on the head to maximize damage output.
