Chrysaora Taming Details
Chrysaora is a knockout tame. Its most effective taming food is Kibble (preferred).
Alternative foods: Species-appropriate food.
Taming Steps
1. Prepare your gear
Bring Tranq Arrows or Tranq Darts, a Crossbow or Longneck Rifle, Narcotics or Narcoberries, and bug repellent.
2. Locate the creature
Find a wild Chrysaora on supported maps. Check the spawn map and bring a fast mount or a flyer for transport.
3. Knock it out
Chrysaora is a knockout tame. Use a Crossbow, Longneck Rifle with Tranq Darts, or Shocking Tranq Darts. Aim for the head for bonus torpor and keep distance to avoid aggro damage.
4. Feed the right food
Place Kibble (preferred) in its inventory (alternatives: Species-appropriate food). Higher-tier food gives faster taming and higher level bonuses.
5. Maintain torpor
Watch the torpor bar. Feed Narcoberries or Narcotics to prevent it from waking up before the tame completes.
6. Claim & saddle
Once tamed, Chrysaora will follow your commands. It cannot be ridden.

Chrysaora — Background & Lore
The Chrysaora is a jellyfish from Aquatica, the ocean expansion map added to ASE in patch 360.1. It is aggressive toward anything that swims too close, so most players meet it as an underwater hazard long before they think about taming one.
Where to find it
It lives in the waters of the Aquatica map.
Taming
A knockout tame. Its preferred food is 
Regular Kibble. Once tamed it can be ridden without a saddle, but the rider cannot use weapons while on it.
Breeding
It cannot be bred. Chrysaora only reproduce in the wild, so every tame has to come from the ocean.
Uses
Its utility is limited, and it is mostly a novelty tame. Killing one gives 
Bio Toxin and 
Raw Fish Meat.
Tips
Bio Toxin works as a strong narcotic for keeping large creatures unconscious, so Chrysaora are worth hunting before a big knockout tame.
