The VR Triceratops is a herbivorous variant creature. It can be immobilized with a Chain Bola or trap and tamed via knockout. This dino is primarily used for basic resource gathering and transport of materials. It can be carried by Quetzal or Tusoteuthis for aerial or aquatic deployment.
It has a compact build and moderate weight, making it suitable for early-game utility roles where knockouts and taming are manageable.

The VR Triceratops must be knocked out before taming. Use a Chain Bola, Bear Trap, or Large Bear Trap to immobilize it. Then, shoot it with Tranq Arrows from a Bow or Crossbow, or use a Fabricated Sniper Rifle with Tranquilizer Darts. The best food is Simple Kibble. Base torpor is 250. About 16 Simple Kibble are needed. Taming takes around 20 minutes with no Narcotics required. Use the calculator below for your settings.
