The Quetzal is a tamable, flying, carnivore creature in ARK: Survival Ascended. It belongs to the Flyer category.
Melee starts at 100% - solid damage output that scales with level-ups. Starting at 1,200 Health, it's among the tougher creatures. Its base Stamina of 800 gives it massive stamina reserves. It carries 800 base Weight - excellent carrying capacity.
The Quetzal is a knockout tame: apply enough torpor to knock it out, then place food in its inventory. For best results, use Exceptional Kibble - it gives the highest taming efficiency.
As a tame, the Quetzal excels at carrying heavy loads through the air, making base-to-base logistics much faster. Breeding produces fertilized eggs that hatch within a 5°C–6°C temperature window. A wild Quetzal is worth 18 base experience when killed. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.98 Element plus 0.1 Element per level.
