How do I kill a archaeopteryx? archaeopteryx battling strategies in ARK: Survival Evolved.
Don't get too close or they will jump up the nearest tree.
You can use tranq darts and shoot them out of the trees instead of having to sneak up on them to try to hit them before they run, it's just hard to hit them due to having such a small hit box so take the time to aim carefully
something no one else seems to have mentioned here though... DO NOT TAKE THEIR EGGS... You will suffer for it
they seem like they're slow animals, but you take those eggs and they are the fastest damn thing you have ever seen. Faster than even raptors.
if you think you're only seeing two or three in one tree... I guarantee you more will show up and attack if you touch those eggs.
I was in the process of trying to find a decent level one to tame, I found a single Archie that just has a dropped egg, and it went up the tree so I grabbed the egg...
I got mobbed by about 10 of them and the only reason I didn't die is because I had five tamed argentavis to fight them off before they could kill me.
Flak armor is useless against flocks of angry archaeopteryx
If you're character has enough movement speed you can escape almost anyone except when you're in water but these little guys are often underestimated they may be small but they are decently strong I mean c'mon what small bird can carry you so I definitely recommend these
Silly Survivor
Despite having a fearful temperament it does not run from anything else, the only it does flee from, is you... for some reason...
If you have a ponytail or big hair wear a hat because then it's less of a chance of it to get you and make sure you don't have a egg in your house

Very rare to find on Valguero. If you sell them in a Val server make sure to charge over 5k poly for a egg.
They are a little hard to find but if you Shot it in the sky then thats jank.
These guys spawn in the ocean biome on genesis
