Solwyn is a carnivorous creature with a DMG role. It specializes in dealing high damage to other creatures and structures. Solwyn can be airlifted by Argentavis, Karkinos, Quetzal, or Tusoteuthis for fast deployment. This makes it ideal for rapid assault and raid scenarios where mobility and damage are critical.
Players typically tame Solwyn to leverage its combat prowess and transport flexibility in offensive operations.

Solwyn must be knocked out before taming. Use a Chain Bola, Bear Trap, or Large Bear Trap to immobilize it. Then apply sedation with Tranq Arrows from a Bow or Crossbow, or use a Longneck Rifle with Tranquilizer Darts. The best food is Raw Mutton. Raw Prime Meat also works well. Taming takes about 26 minutes and requires no Narcotics. Use the calculator below for your settings.
