Knockout Weapons

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

To simplify the knockout, immobilize the Aberrant Oviraptor first with Bola or Bear Trap. Alternatively, use a Argentavis to airlift it into a pre-built trap.

Required Narcotics

Use the narcotic calculator to determine exactly how many Narcotics, Bio Toxin, or Narcoberries you need for the Aberrant Oviraptor. Your options are Narcotics (40 Torpor), Bio Toxin (80 Torpor, best efficiency), or Narcoberries (7.5 Torpor, cheapest but slowest). With Torpor draining at 0.21/s, don't wait until the bar is nearly empty to apply narcotics.

Track the taming process with the timers below - they monitor both Torpor and starvation progress. The torpor timer alerts you when narcotics are needed. The starve timer tracks Food depletion for starve-taming, where you let the food bar drop before placing all food at once.

Its base Stamina of 120 gives it tires quickly. Dealing 106% base Melee Damage, the Aberrant Oviraptor brings decent hitting power to the table. At 134 base HP, the Aberrant Oviraptor is glass-cannon fragile. Weight capacity starts at 100, giving it modest carrying capacity.

You'll need to knock the Aberrant Oviraptor unconscious before taming it. Tranquilizers are the standard approach. For best results, use Extraordinary Dinosaur Egg - it gives the highest taming efficiency.

Once tamed, the Aberrant Oviraptor earns its keep through resource gathering, making tedious farming runs much faster. It reproduces by laying eggs, which must be incubated between 26°C and 30°C. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.6 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
