The Chain Bola is ammo used with the Ballista Turret. Like the Bola, it is primarily used to trap dinos, but the chain bola can trap much larger dinos, up to and including a Quetzal. The chain bola can also trap a Rex and most likely all other larger creatures. It immobilizes the trapped creature for about 15 seconds. Be warned that if using on a platform saddle, it's possible to accidentally immobilize your own or friendly mounts.
