The table below shows how many hits from each torpor weapon are needed to knock out the Thalassian Hover Skiff at different levels. Always pace your shots. Torpor takes time to apply, and over-shooting can be lethal.

The table shows how many sedatives you'll need to keep the Thalassian Hover Skiff unconscious through the full taming duration. Bio Toxin is twice as potent as Narcotics (80 vs 40 Torpor per use), while Narcoberries work in a pinch at just 7.5 Torpor each.

Use the torpor and starve timers to track your Thalassian Hover Skiff tame in real time. Starve taming is recommended for valuable high-level Thalassian Hover Skiff: let the Food stat deplete first, then add food. This way nothing is wasted if something goes wrong.

The Thalassian Hover Skiff, a tamable creature in ARK: Survival Ascended, is a notable presence across multiple maps. It belongs to the Variant category.

A base Weight of 16000 means massive inventory space. Starting at 10,000 Health, it's one of the toughest creatures in the game.

Taming the Thalassian Hover Skiff requires rendering it unconscious first - use Tranq Arrows, Darts, or Shocking Tranq Darts to apply torpor.

After taming, the Thalassian Hover Skiff combines solid harvesting capability with generous carrying capacity. Defeating one in the wild grants 2 base XP. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.8 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
