Below are the narcotic requirements for keeping the X-Mosasaurus 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-Mosasaurus bleeds 12.8 Torpor/s, so keep a close eye on the bar and sedate early.
Use the torpor and starve timers to track your X-Mosasaurus tame in real time. Starve taming is recommended for valuable high-level X-Mosasaurus: let the Food stat deplete first, then add food. This way nothing is wasted if something goes wrong.
Estimated time until optimal feeding point: 1h 12m 38s
