Check the taming results to see how long it takes to tame the X-Ankylosaurus, what effectiveness you'll achieve, and how many bonus levels it gains. Better food means better results.

Below is a breakdown of knockout weapon requirements for the X-Ankylosaurus across various creature levels. Space your shots to let torpor accumulate - rapid firing risks killing it before knockout.

The table shows how many sedatives you'll need to keep the X-Ankylosaurus unconscious through the full taming duration. Your options are Narcotics (40 Torpor), Bio Toxin (80 Torpor, best efficiency), or Narcoberries (7.5 Torpor, cheapest but slowest). The X-Ankylosaurus bleeds 0.3 Torpor/s, so keep a close eye on the bar and sedate early.

Use the torpor and starve timers to track your X-Ankylosaurus 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.
