Taming Results
Check the taming results to see how long it takes to tame the Mega Mek, what effectiveness you'll achieve, and how many bonus levels it gains. Better food means better results.
Required Narcotics
The table shows how many sedatives you'll need to keep the Mega Mek 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. At 0.1 Torpor drain per second, apply narcotics proactively - a wakeup mid-tame wastes everything.
Starve & Torpor Timers
Track the taming process with the timers below - they monitor both Torpor and starvation progress. Torpor monitoring prevents premature wakeups. The starve timer is for the starve-tame method - let Food drop, then load all kibble at once to avoid waste.
