How do I kill a archaeopteryx? archaeopteryx battling strategies in ARK: Survival Evolved.
Careful not to confuse these with a microraptor. One will flee in fear, the other will rko you and eat your face
Fun fact: Archaeopteryx means “ancient wing”
Found on the redwood forest on mobile, thought not that common.
Make sure you DON'T mistake them for Micros. These dudes run. I've accidentally killed one thinking it was a micro. Always use a spy glass to tell which is which. Finding these cute lil fellas is hard especially with all the thylas and terror birds around. To tame them you'll need Chitin so go kill some ants or dragonflies and then boom you have a lil buddy you can love forever, well y'know until they die or you quit.

Alright, so basically I found one of these in the wild and REALLY wanted one. But with all the fun things in the Redwoods willing to take out anything that looks at them... Well you get the idea. But when I went to a dungeon and saw a Eerie one I wanted it SO bad. So I killed that one took its creature implant, revived it at one of the obelisks and tamed that glory bird up. Now I have a light up parachute!
These are NOT rare, just hard to find. Keep a close eye on the redwood trees, make sure to circle the trees, and listen for the noise they make.
You can also find these in the fuzzy trees in scorched earth by the small mountain
You can tell these apart from microraptors by looking at their tail a microraptor has feathers in a circular shape at the end of their tail but these guys have a line of feathers going all the way down.
This little b*tch is so hard to find even on redwoods? HECK NO you look for them they DISSAPEAR. You don’t want them, they come to life.😔
Won't assault you however if you go near it it will flee. This is because it's skittish in temperment. If you wish to tame keep this in mind
I had made a base in red wood and was up in the trees when I heard a scream, I look around me spot one of these guys are immediately knew that I needed one of these
When playing on the Center, be warned that they are very DIFFICULT to find because they hide in the bushes. If you aren't careful, you'll probably get lost and die by the Carnos and Terror Birds that lurk in the Redwoods.
Hello, I am the archaeopteryx lord's wife archaeopteryx lady, and I just want to inform all of you that he has killed many of innocent people because they were hurting the archaeopteryxes to knock them out. I think this is unfair for all the innocent people who just want to tame an archaeopteryx.
May sometimes spawn on the floors of deserts, beware that microraptors look exactly like them!
Found one before, fell in love. Tried to tame it and then this level 50 enforcer came over and murdered me, Yes this was on extinction.
I was near the sea shore in a dangerous area and there was an archeoraptoryx and I made unconscious but then that giant crocodile ate my face and the archeoraptoryx was left unconscious 😂
Usually found in and around the redwood forests, these little guys can be used as parachutes if you fall from a tame/ structure and save you dying. You will probably need a bola because although a passive creature it will fly to the nearest tree and latch on if you get too close
You can find them in Redwoods. They so smol so increase yo resolution in settings.
If you saw a little birb climbing a Redwood Tree, it is an Archaeopteryx. They are so fast and hard to bola. If you manage to find its egg then pick it up so they will start chasing you. Now it's easier to catch them. Shoot them tranqs and feed them chitin congrats now you have veri cute birb.
Grabbed one with an argy to take back to base to tame but when leaving the redwood, the little sucker startled and was able to leap free to a nearby tree
The one for the icon doesn’t do these guys justice. I have a gold, blue a red one and it’s beautiful
