X-Helicoprion Taming Calculator
Drop a piece of looted gear on the seabed beside it. It has to be something it could turn into a blueprint, so looted or Gacha-made equipment works and anything you crafted yourself does not. It swims over, grinds the item down, and that is what lets you mount it. Once you are on it thrashes and prompts you for a button. Hit every one; the last prompt dismounts you and feeds it a treat, so carry those yourself. Miss a prompt and it throws you off and turns hostile, costing five per cent of the whole requirement. Keep other creatures well clear, because the thrashing hits very hard.
How this tame works
No knockoutFeed it 10 treats. About 5 minutes at level 150.
- Every treat you feed makes the next one worth 0.1% less, so a long tame needs more than a simple division suggests.
- Getting bucked off costs 5% of the total requirement, and it turns on you afterwards rather than waiting politely, so hold on.
