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

Send help...

When ur trying to catch them in the trees and they disappear.Look closely at the tree cuz they sometimes glitch in the trees.

You can only find these in the redwoods. Have fun keeping an eye on them as they are high up in the trees. If they see you, they will flee. Bola the archaeopteryx so it doesn’t escape and knock it out, feed it chitin, and you have it tamed. Can be used as a parachute.

Be VERY cautious when gliding with one of these. I had ventured to the volcano for some amber and metal searching, and I jumped off and began gliding with my little Archae named Skaikru. When I accidentally tapped the screen (Be aware, I am on mobile.) And I chucked little Skaikru right into the outskirts of Redwoods, with my army Valkyrie following my plummeting body all the way down.

Moral: If you’re on mobile whilst gliding with one of these, DO NOT TAP THE SCREEN.

Throw yourself off a gigantopithecus while holding this fun lil guy

Saved my life more then once, when I have fell off my dino.

Flight speed is defined over your movement speed, not the Archeopteryx'

Put points into stamina instead

i found a lvl 260 eerie female in the redwoods, tried taming her but yadadada its a pain to tame until she got stuck in my tree base

I LOVE HERRRR

The Archaeopteryxes are actually an evolutionary ‘uncle’ and not really ‘parent’ in the evolution or birds.

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

Ark tip: Archeopteryx can be use as a glider.

Archeopteryx can be found on red wood forest in the trees.

They’re very skittish and hard to hit. And for some reason on ark mobile they disappear once they hit the ground. At least that’s how it is on the server I play on. It’s also how I lost most of my toxicant arrows trying to hit one.

I literally find hundreds just chillin on trees in the redwoods. It's really helpful to make a tree platform and just wait until one lands on your tree and then shoot it with tranqs. It's much easier then trying to shoot one from the ground, and trying to find it once it's knocked out.

I hope it gets reworked on the landing part in Mobile. These things can take a while to land (depending on how high you are in terrain), but definitely recommend taming it. When I first started taming it I saw it's eggs, then it aggroed on me after I picked them up. Fortunately I had my Ptera with me, which I used to pick it up after it aggroed. After that I flew it back to base and tranqued it out with two tranq arrows (I used a longbow and hit it hard the first time then barely pulled it back the second time and knocked it out that way as to not do too much damage). And then fed it chitin, for Mobile as long as it's a low level (1-5+) you only need four chitin, if it's ten or up you'll need five or more (this is on Mobile). Sorry for the long tip.

You can’t use stuff in your hot bar when you are carrying this guy

When tamed it just eat chitin

It don't eat meat

Taming a archaeopteryx is easy but one thing is that they get easily startled. So you'll have to have bolas and tranq arrows or a wooden club. Also chitin to tame it.

Don’t set your little ARK chicken on wonder in a 1 fence tall enclosure that’s ho mine got missing XD

like most small to medium sized creatures, a decent lvl horse can knock them out quick before they can escape. nice utility tames (organic parachute) as far as encountering goes....well good luck distinguishing them from microraptors......

You can use this when you throwed by gigantopithecus

It will be fun
