You can find them on extinction I did and found to cause my brother hit it alot then I Bola it and it takes damage from Bola ☹ thankfully it reopened and I tamed with Bola and fist

Using just an archaeopteryx if you jump from a very high place you can travel the entire map with little to worry about. They are also good for when that one god damn microraptor gets you and your argy.

Knocking them out is simple as long as they don't see you otherwise they will climb higher into their current tree. They will also glide to other trees if scared too much. One shock dart makes even the highest level. Bola's or Net projectiles suggested.

We citizens of archaeopteryxs declare that the archaeopteryx lord is a big f@t meanie. upp so we can elect a new lord

Their usually found in the red woods, and are often times found climbing trees, but I have seen a few on the ground. If your looking to tame one, I’d suggest getting several bola, and crouch near it, and bola it down, a lvl 50 or so should only take 3-4 darts, anything above that will be more, but they shouldn’t take much. After that or before, grab some chitin, I’d suggest getting 100+ incase, they don’t rot but you never know if you’ll find a high lvl one you don’t have enough for.

If your also on multiplayer and your close to cap, I’d suggest waiting for cap to go off, before fully knocking one out. I made the mistake of doing it with cap and mine starved to death cause you can’t force feed them chitin

It's a very good bird. It really helps with staying in the air if you fall off your flying mount and need to get back on. It's practically living glider!

Be prepared if you breed them. You will need a shit load of chitin! I got twins and one died because of my lack of knowledge ;u;

If you go to ocean East they spawn there in Gen 1

Where are they In genesis

If you tamed one of these little guys, remember, they still eat chitin when tamed so don’t put it in their inventory’s if u wanna save some

These are in the redwoods on the ground or in the trees. I recommend looking for them on the tree trunks.

Put lvl's in stamina and weight... If it runs out of stam and too heavy it wil lose life and die ..

They’re in the redwoods. And make a distinct sound when they see you. They get scared & will fly half way up a tree. After they fly up a tree, aim and shoot with tranq’s! After they fall, use kibble or chitin to tame.

I lag to much to get one but is it a knock out tame or passive do they eat meat or berries

Send help...

It’s a lot easier to use a bola when taking than just going for it. One buck with an equus also knocks it out. Make sure to be certain something is a micro raptor before killing it, cause these things are rare and look virtually the same

To the mobile players , I tamed one today and they are insanely useful. For metal runs, just get the leg day buff and as long as you have 150%+ mvment speed you can carry thoursands of metals from the volcano to anywhere on the map, wothout needing an argy i carried 3.5k metal from the volcano all the way to the south beaches very fast.

When holding an archaeopteryx, you cannot grab anything, you need to drop the bird to use items like pile or spyglass

This is extremely easy even without a proper taming weapon, just kill some random Terror Bird and maybe it'll drop a bow+tranq arrows and start tra wing the guy

P.S, he eats chitin

HELP MY ARHCEAOPTRYX IS DYING WHAT DO THEY EAT I FED HIM CHITIN BUT HE DOESN'T EAT IT HE'S GONNA DIE OF STARVATION btw I'm on mobile

Go to the redwood, look at the trees they'll often fly from one tree to the next. It can take some time to find but when you do they spawn in bunches. Now here's a nifty trick. Not all "grab point" on tree work perfectly, if the archa can't grab the tree it'll just fall vertically to the ground for not only an easy time to tranq it, but also other archas might fall to the ground near the same spot when they come along to feed! I tamed 3 archa in one spot for the price of one (fourth one got away).

Careful about the wildlife especially the angry birds
