Sinomacrops is a small flying insectivore tamed as a shoulder pet. It provides significant weight reduction for inventory resources, making it ideal for long-distance resource transport. The creature can be airlifted by Quetzal or Karkinos for fast deployment.
Tamed passively by feeding, it does not require knockout or traps. Its compact size and flight allow for easy handling and mobility in tight spaces.

Sinomacrops is tamed passively by feeding it Chitin. No alternative foods provide meaningful affinity gain. Place the Chitin in your inventory and approach slowly while unmounted to avoid aggro. The tame takes about 30 Chitin and lasts around 16 minutes with no Narcotics needed. Use the calculator below for your settings.
