More about taming the Tek Triceratops
Taming a Tek Triceratops requires a knockout method. The best food is Simple Kibble, which provides the fastest taming effectiveness. Mejoberry can also be used if kibble is unavailable, though it is significantly slower. Use a Bow with Tranq Arrows or immobilize it with a Chain Bola to begin the process. The taming takes around 20 minutes and requires no Narcotics. Use the calculator below for your settings.

About gathering
While ridden, the Tek Triceratops gathers from a wide range of categories including berries, mushrooms, seeds, wood, and thatch. Its primary attack harvests up to 10× the normal yield of resources such as Mejoberry, Bio Toxin, Cementing Paste, Citronal, and Rare Flower. This makes it exceptionally efficient for farming rare consumables and crafting ingredients.
