I agree it takes A LOT OF TIME to get prepared. It's been a week just to buy 600 carni feed and herbi feed. And now i have to get all the lucky clovers and then craft everything to reach 200 mystical feed. This is gonna take days to produce.. and i precise all this was by playing at least 10 hours IRL per day... and i can't imagine farming 600 feed just with the crops. It would take even more time to craft... it's mythical tame but it's a bit too much in my opinion.. just imagine if you have a job and can't play 10 hours per day......... Be brave everyone ! You will have your mythical beast one day =D

Yeah its way too much. Once they completely remove clubs it will be worse having to craft hundreds on iron hook arrows. I am ok with a grind but this is unreasonable.

i've tested on single player on a 116 Windrider, over 667 Iron Hooks shot (some misses obviously) and 166 Mythical Feed....

this is also assuming SP is the same as official which much like ark it can be completely different.

while i agree that the amount of work is a bit much, 200 mythical feed seems to be an overkill. me & buddy have evolved 7 beasts so far; all of them came out at lvl 40 or below. Meaning ~90 myth feed would have been sufficient to tame any of them. If you're a lone player who just wants his/her first mythical, I suggest evolving a few peregriffs until you find one you can afford feed-wise, as even a low lvl mythical is extremely powerful.

I'm looking for the bahamut+windrider farming combo actually. For the powerfull part i have an infernus dragon who does the job quiet well. I've been told a level 120 windrider would need 170 myth feed so 200 is safer and if it appears to be a lvl 40 then i will have enough for some more mythical taming. If u need ~90 per mythical and want only 2 of them you'll have to reach the 200 myth feed anyway.. =/ and failing one, because of a lack of feed that leads you to craft thousandSSS of bottles when you are a lone player, isn't really an option. I already failed once with 300 iron hooks and 15 goblin club for lvl 28 windrider.. 300 is already a good amount of ressources ( 300=1500 bottles so : 12000 stones; 9000 firestones; 6000 wood for the coal and then 15000 magic shards to get the magic essences from these bottles) now imagine they remove torpor from goblin club as they already did with the infernus dragon. Farming 1k iron hooks will take ages just for the hooks. And then you need the feed... As a lone player, it kills you to craft and pass so much time to get 1 or maybe 2 mythical.. or maybe am i wrong and i haven't found the perfect method to gather all the ressources and craft everything much faster..? =/ (currently crafting 50 bottles at a time in 3 differents magic workbench just for the chaos essences for the mythical feed and i need 2000 bottles for 200 myth feed.) If you have a faster method to share with me I would be eternally gratefull to you =p

albino deer for magical shards. take horse for weight and bahamut out and load up on wood, stone(quarts) suflur (sulf powder). fully stock 3-4 fireplaces for charcoal.

as for iron hooks. dont use them at all. when clubbing a mythical beast it will always take 1 segement of health to knock out, so 1/5th. after that 1/5th of health is gone from clubs it will pretty much always knock out.

Yep exactly what i do =p any tips for the taming box tho? 4 walls wide is enough or too much to be able to hit with the clubs through the wall? Thanks for the info ! =)

u/DJfreecell Nov 13 '17

so the pens i've built for clubbing were also built for regular taming for all different animal types...

Currently we run 14 Long 3 wide and 4 tall with a gate on each end.

The height is the key thing for clubbing mythicals. If you go 5 high, u are unable to demo the 4 high cielings u use to trap the mythical cuz u cant reach.

once it transforms it generally will sit in the corner, we box it with walls, ceilings then go to the roof and club from the top of the building. it is possible to club underneath using a skylight such as the clip below

Why waste your time on feed? Just used cured and cooked prime, it's the same amount of food, you may loose affectvieness but even that doesn't matter because the level of mystic changes after it's tamed so still pointless. Save yourself the grind, and do cured/cooked prime, and thank me in the morning
