Dreadnoughtus
To tame a Dreadnoughtus, feed it Element from your hotbar — it will follow you for 60 seconds. Kite it to an Element Vein (alpha-difficulty veins give better effectiveness) where it will begin feeding from the node. While it feeds, defend it from waves of corrupted creatures until the taming bar fills.
