Forest Titan Taming Details
Forest Titan is torpor-immune — it cannot be knocked out, so a standard tranq tame does not apply.
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 Forest Titan on supported maps. Check the spawn map and bring a fast mount or a flyer for transport.
3. Knock it out
Forest Titan 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, equip a saddle (unlocks via the engram tab) to ride your Forest Titan.

Forest Titan — Background & Lore
The Forest Titan is one of the three lesser Titans of Extinction, a huge corrupted giant overgrown with roots and trees. It is a temporary tame. Once its corruption is cleared it joins your tribe as a slow walking fortress, and its trophy is needed for the
King Titan.
Where to find it
It appears in the Crater Forest on Extinction after you use the Forest Titan Terminal in the forest cave in the north. The portal costs 1
Artifact of Growth, 100
Corrupt Hearts, 10 Sauropod
Vertebrae and 10
Tyrannosaurus Arms.
Taming
It cannot be knocked out or fed to tame. Destroy the two corruption nodes on its shoulders first. A third node then appears on its chin. When all three are gone the Titan collapses and you tame it by interacting with it. It comes with a Platform Saddle.
Uses
- Tank: its front armor cuts incoming damage heavily.
- Siege: a raiding and gathering platform with room for storage on its back.
- King Titan: a strong ally in the final Extinction fight.
Tips
Its root attacks pull riders off ground mounts. The
Forest Wyverns that spawn in the arena can be ridden, and their breath burns the poisonous trees the Titan spreads. A tamed Titan is slow and cannot hit targets above it.
