# DelegateTakeTooHigh (/docs/errors/chain/DelegateTakeTooHigh)

The `take` argument exceeds the maximum delegate take allowed by the chain (18% by default). Compare the requested value against the `MaxDelegateTake` storage item and lower it.

Declared by the `SubtensorModule` pallet; it classifies to the semantic code [`invalid_argument`](/docs/errors/invalid-argument).
