More Archaeopteryx Taming & KO Tips
Fun fact, archaeopteryx was very important for it was the creature that confirmed the theory of birds being linked to dinosaurs. π
βPrefers to eat rare insect matter.β Well dang I guess chitin is rare
Just tamed a lvl 145 female and lvl 150 male with only 5 simple kibble for both of them. That's on normal x1 taming on Xbox. They have pretty colors. Bolas, 6 tranq darts, simple kibble and BAM! Got yourself a cutie birdy.
Hope this helps!
I see the Otter God, the Jerboa King and the Defender of Bulbdogs made an early move. Now I the Archaeopteryx Lord shall rise. If any one of you guys kill these birbs I will look for you and feed your soul to the ravenous birbs I own. So if you see one my birbs Naruto running away for you, DO NOT kill it instead be its friend, they are a great parachute and they are wholesome creatures to begin with. So you have be warned by the Archaeopteryx Lord...
Standard bola, 2 tranq arrows and feed chitin
Can be used as a parachute
People say its not on mobile tell that to my glider
They are very fast and will only eat chitin. They run away when they see you or you tranq them. Breeding takes chitin too so have lots of chitin. They hide in trees and I have only seen females so Esther males are rare or Iβm very bad at finding them
On mobile these guys tend to glitch out a lot, so try to shoot them when there completely still on a tree. When glitching they often just teleport tree to tree and/or slowly slide down the tree until they fall to the floor (from my experience you cannot hurt or knock them out in this state)
Hope this helps!
It only eats chitin. Make sure to put chitin on them for food. Breeding also only takes chitin so make sure you have plenty.
