Use the knockout chart to see exactly how many Tranq Arrows, Darts, or other torpor weapons it takes to down the Exo-Mek. Wait between shots for torpor to tick up. Firing too fast can kill the creature before it goes down.

Below are the narcotic requirements for keeping the Exo-Mek sedated throughout taming. Narcotics provide 40 Torpor each and are the standard choice. Bio Toxin offers 80 Torpor but is harder to farm. Narcoberries at 7.5 each are a last resort. The Exo-Mek bleeds 0.3 Torpor/s, so keep a close eye on the bar and sedate early.

Track the taming process with the timers below - they monitor both Torpor and starvation progress. 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.

The Exo-Mek is a tamable creature in ARK: Survival Ascended.

With 2,000 base Health, the Exo-Mek is a proper tank. It carries 20000 base Weight - excellent carrying capacity.

The Exo-Mek is a knockout tame: apply enough torpor to knock it out, then place food in its inventory.

As a tame, the Exo-Mek is best used as a pack animal, hauling large amounts of resources between locations. A wild Exo-Mek is worth 1 base experience when killed. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 100 Element plus 5 Element per level.
