Knock the X-Parasauro unconscious using your preferred torpor weapon, then feed it to begin the taming process. The X-Parasauro loses Torpor at 0.1 per second while unconscious - stay on top of narcotics.

ARK: Survival Ascended features the X-Parasauro as a tamable, herbivore creature that survivors will encounter in the wild. Classified under the Variant group.

Health-wise, the X-Parasauro sits at 194 base, making it on the squishy side. Its base Melee Damage sits at 105%, giving it solid damage output. Its base Stamina of 450 gives it solid stamina reserves. It carries 480 base Weight - a solid weight pool.

To tame the X-Parasauro, you need to knock it unconscious using torpor weapons, then feed it while it's down. For best results, use Basic Kibble - it gives the highest taming efficiency.

Once tamed, the X-Parasauro is valued for its harvesting efficiency, collecting key resources faster than most tools. Breeding produces fertilized eggs that hatch within a 24°C–28°C temperature window. Killing a wild X-Parasauro yields 1 base XP. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.14 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.

Check the taming results to see how long it takes to tame the X-Parasauro, what effectiveness you'll achieve, and how many bonus levels it gains. Better food means better results.

Use the narcotic calculator to determine exactly how many Narcotics, Bio Toxin, or Narcoberries you need for the X-Parasauro. Your options are Narcotics (40 Torpor), Bio Toxin (80 Torpor, best efficiency), or Narcoberries (7.5 Torpor, cheapest but slowest). With Torpor draining at 0.1/s, don't wait until the bar is nearly empty to apply narcotics.

Below is a breakdown of knockout weapon requirements for the X-Parasauro across various creature levels. Space your shots to let torpor accumulate - rapid firing risks killing it before knockout.

To simplify the knockout, immobilize the X-Parasauro first with Bola or Bear Trap. A Argentavis can also pick it up and drop it into a taming pen for a controlled knockout.
