How to tame faster?

[Cuteboy]

I tried to tame longhorns. Unlike boars or sheeps, it took me a very long time to tame them, like almost 3 hours. During the taming, i fed with grass and kept mid level Fatigue, so my question is, will the taming take shorter time if higher fatigue is kept? And what do wildness and fatigue really mean?

It will not go faster, just means the animal/creature wont wake up. Wildness is how many levels that will be added atop of the level the creature already has.

I tamed a lvl 12 longohorn yesterday in 30 mins or less... I gave him apples, I suppose they prefer them :)

I think there is a way to let it get faster, since I saw someone tamed in a youtube video, his taming bar increased way quicker than me, he said that he kept high fatigue, but I am not sure about that.

Ok thx, did you keep high fatigue?

I still hadn't understood well if hitting the fatigued mob with a hooked arrow will decrease the wilderness (which is the mob's HP as i read around, at first i supposed it was just like the "taming effectiveness" of Ark, but seems to be different).
Anyways, to answer your qestion: YES i arrowed the longhorn with 2-3 more hooked arrows to fill its fatigue/constitution bar ;)

Ok! Then high fatigue might help^^

Some people use higher stats to tame quicker so it may have been a modified server

What do you mean higher stats and modified server? Does that mean that I have to be high level and in a better server with low lag?

[johnim]

Im saying most use unofficial servers ahd have a higher tame rate and other modified stuff

[gatsublack]

I play in an unofficial server, yes, but i suppose they have no modifiers.
What i noticed was an increase of taming speed changing the food. The longhorn was eating grass and the speed seemed slow, when i put apples in the trough, the longhorn began to eat the apples. In Ark this meant that they prefer apples rather than regular grass.
So my suggestion about it is: try using APPLES for herbivores, you might improve the taming speed :)

Yes apples will make the herbivore tame much faster

Oh thx for the hints!

Hmm, ah yeah, the right food makes it go quicker of course (me slaps my forehead). But not having high fatigue I think. Do think thats mostly to keep the creature from waking up, but I might be wrong :)

I had a stag get up and walk off while taming... it was a lvl 88 and I was feeding it apples..

Not sure if it was a bug or I let fatigue raise up or something. I wasn't paying attention.

Wish I knew more

If fatigue drops to zero (or whatever it is called nowadays :) ), the creature awakes. A tip is to shoot it with the arrows that make it go asleep from time to time. It helps keeping fatigue up (the lower bar).
