ark-survival-evolved – Effective Ways to Knock Out a Dinosaur in ARK: Survival Evolved

ark-survival-evolved

As stated in the title I want to know which ways there are to knock out a dinosaur. I know that you can use tranq arrows and the scorpion, but I've also heard that shooting a dinosaur's head with a slingshot is supposed to help with knocking it out (did not test that though).

So what else can you use to knock out a dinosaur?

Best Answer

To knock out a creature, here are some of the more basic weapons and creatures you can use:

  • Narcoberries / Narcotics (if you're able to force feed the creature)
  • Bare fists
  • Slingshot
  • Wooden club
  • Tranq arrows (with bow)
  • Tranq darts (with rifle)
  • Electric prod
  • Scorpion (attacks raise torpor)
  • Frog (attacks raise torpor)

There are more weapons / devices and creatures, but depending on your patch, you may not have them all. Here is the most authoritative list of torpor-causing methods I could find.
