How to tame a Yutyrannus
The Yuty is a snow-biome tame that never comes alone: wild ones command two or three Carnotaurus minions that defend it, and its fear roar can send your own mount running with you on it. Standard approach is a stone pen or cliff ledge, dealt with AFTER you kill the carno escort. Do not try to out-brawl the whole group in the open.
Its fear roar does not affect players on foot, so a common tactic is fighting from a ledge on foot with a good crossbow or rifle. Bring cold protection, lots of narcotics for a long tame, and Extraordinary Kibble if you want the effectiveness on a high level - this is a creature you tame FOR the levels.
Common mistakes
- Riding a fear-roar-vulnerable mount into the fight and losing control of it mid-combat.
- Ignoring the carno minions and getting shredded while lining up dart shots.
- Cheap food on a high level: a Yuty is a keystone tame; do not waste the effectiveness.
What is the Yutyrannus good for?
The Yutyrannus is the single most important support creature in the game: its courage roar buffs the damage and damage resistance of your whole army, and every serious boss composition includes one. Its fear roar also turns wild packs and enemy tames away in field fights.
