Variant
Knock the R-Procoptodon unconscious using your preferred torpor weapon, then feed it to begin the taming process. The R-Procoptodon loses Torpor at 0.67 per second while unconscious - stay on top of narcotics.
| Food | Food Quantity (Current/Max) | Taming Time | Effectiveness |
|---|---|---|---|
Rare Mushroom | 1:11:00 | 72 Lvl (222) 96.2% | |
Plant Species X Seed | 1:34:40 | 64 Lvl (214) 86.36% |
Check the taming results to see how long it takes to tame the R-Procoptodon, what effectiveness you'll achieve, and how many bonus levels it gains. Better food means better results.
The table shows how many sedatives you'll need to keep the R-Procoptodon 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 0.67 Torpor drain per second, apply narcotics proactively - a wakeup mid-tame wastes everything.
The real-time timers below help you monitor Torpor drain and Food depletion during the tame. Starve taming is recommended for valuable high-level R-Procoptodon: let the Food stat deplete first, then add food. This way nothing is wasted if something goes wrong.
The R-Procoptodon is a tamable, herbivore creature in ARK: Survival Ascended. It falls within the Variant classification.
Melee starts at 105% - solid damage output that scales with level-ups. The R-Procoptodon has 388 base Health - reasonably durable. Its base Stamina of 350 gives it solid stamina reserves. It carries 550 base Weight - an enormous weight pool.
The R-Procoptodon is a knockout tame: apply enough torpor to knock it out, then place food in its inventory. Feed it Rare Mushroom for the fastest tame and highest effectiveness bonus.
After taming, the R-Procoptodon combines solid harvesting capability with generous carrying capacity. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.31 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
Use the knockout chart to see exactly how many Tranq Arrows, Darts, or other torpor weapons it takes to down the R-Procoptodon. Wait between shots for torpor to tick up. Firing too fast can kill the creature before it goes down.
To simplify the knockout, immobilize the R-Procoptodon first with Chain Bola or Bear Trap. A Argentavis can also pick it up and drop it into a taming pen for a controlled knockout.
