R-Megatherium Taming Calculator

To tame the R-Megatherium, you need to knock it unconscious first. Tranq Arrows, Tranq Darts, and Shocking Tranq Darts all work. Once unconscious, Torpor drains at 0.9/s, so keep Narcotics or Bio Toxin ready.

Required Narcotics

Use the narcotic calculator to determine exactly how many Narcotics, Bio Toxin, or Narcoberries you need for the R-Megatherium. Your options are Narcotics (40 Torpor), Bio Toxin (80 Torpor, best efficiency), or Narcoberries (7.5 Torpor, cheapest but slowest). With Torpor draining at 0.9/s, don't wait until the bar is nearly empty to apply narcotics.

Starve & Torpor Timers

Use the torpor and starve timers to track your R-Megatherium tame in real time. Starve taming is recommended for valuable high-level R-Megatherium: let the Food stat deplete first, then add food. This way nothing is wasted if something goes wrong.
