X-Dunkleosteus Taming Calculator

To tame the X-Dunkleosteus, you need to knock it unconscious first. Tranq Arrows, Tranq Darts, and Shocking Tranq Darts all work. Once unconscious, Torpor drains at 1/s, so keep Narcotics or Bio Toxin ready.

Required Narcotics

Below are the narcotic requirements for keeping the X-Dunkleosteus sedated throughout taming. Narcotics provide 40 Torpor each and are the standard choice. Bio Toxin offers 80 Torpor but is harder to farm. Narcoberries at 7.5 each are a last resort. The X-Dunkleosteus bleeds 1 Torpor/s, so keep a close eye on the bar and sedate early.

Starve & Torpor Timers

Track the taming process with the timers below - they monitor both Torpor and starvation progress. The torpor timer alerts you when narcotics are needed. The starve timer tracks Food depletion for starve-taming, where you let the food bar drop before placing all food at once.
