How You Get One

method, in order
Passive Feed it by hand, with no tranquilisers. Being attacked resets progress, so clear the area before you start.

Quirks

  • To tame an otter, kill some fish, approach the otter, and then use the action button to feed the fish to it. Level of fish does not impact taming. The Sabertooth Salmon is by far the most effective fish, followed by the Piranha and the Coelacanth. Please ignore timing and effectiveness.

Holding it still

BolaThrow it, it's stuck for 30 seconds. Carry a stack — you'll miss.
Bear TrapPlace it, kite the creature over it. Holds long enough to get darts in.
Plant Species YA grown trap plant — snares whatever triggers it. Handy where you can't place structures.

That's the full list — nothing else immobilizes a X-Otter, per the game's own immobilizer table (drag weight 35).

Every number in this card is at official 1× rates, with the fastest food. Taming speed and food consumption multipliers change all of it, and most servers are not on official — the calculator at the top of this tab takes your rates, a Sanguine Elixir, and every other food this creature will eat.

Effectiveness is what decides the bonus levels: every unit of food eaten costs a slice of it, so the food that needs the fewest units finishes at the highest level. That is why kibble is worth the trouble — not that it is much faster, but that it is fewer feedings.

    The Otter bites the target for 10 damage.

  • Offer Gift40px

    The Otter shows its owner pearls with its hands after getting out of the water. This action can only be done after the Otter kills a small fish and collects Silica Pearls or Black Pearls from it. All small fishes drop silica pearls for the Otter, but when a fish drops it black pearls it will show black pearls with this action instead, showing the player the most valuable of both type of pearls that it gets.

  • Shoulder Pet

    The Otter is a shoulder pet, meaning that it can be picked up by the player on their shoulder, allowing the Otter to attack from there if within range. It cannot take damage unless the player dies or it is thrown off the shoulder. While on one's shoulder, the weight that the Otter has in its inventory will weigh half as much as it would to the player. The Otter can harvest Silica Pearls and sometimes Black Pearls from small fishes after killing them and harvesting their corpses. Standing next to an Otter provides 75-82 Hypothermic insulation and 34-38 Hyperthermic insulation, which increases with its Melee Damage stat, and decreases based on your distance from it. It also gives this protection to players with an Otter around their neck. The Otter is the only creature whose inventory works as a structure instead of a normal creature inventory, which means that it can carry multiple Artifacts even of the same type simultaneously. Because its inventory works as a structure, however, the Otter's inventory does not increase the spoilage time of objects. The Otter can be equipped with helmets for extra damage resistance.
