More about taming the Chalk Elemental

Below are the narcotic requirements for keeping the Chalk Elemental sedated throughout taming. 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. With Torpor draining at 0.33/s, don't wait until the bar is nearly empty to apply narcotics.
The real-time timers below help you monitor Torpor drain and Food depletion during the tame. Starve taming is recommended for valuable high-level Chalk Elemental: let the Food stat deplete first, then add food. This way nothing is wasted if something goes wrong.
