What are tips for bloodstalker? Tips and strategies for bloodstalker in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
I think these guys should be an early game tame because if you are leveling up your characters health to I’d say level 10 then when it gets you you can tame it
To raise effectiveness you have to feed it around 5 tames. Parasaur, Phioma, mosschop, or anything is can grab that can take a few hits before the stalker grabs it. Levels don't really matter except for amount of health the tame has. On Gen2 I picked with Void Wyrm and put in a trap. I used double compartment trap. One for tames and other for the stalker. Start taming process using blood packs, feed tames, and then finish taming with blood packs.
Go to fjordur Tame a low level Desmodus then use the Desmodus to get alot of blood packs then go to Genesis and then use the blood packs to take a Bloodstalker
Bloodstalker Babies DO NOT eat cooked meat. Just had a mutates breeding pair of twins die.
Make sure to have more than 90 blood because when you tam one another picks u up and if you don't have blood it drains your health
If you’re trying to tame, don’t get snatched while wearing a glider suit. It bugs out the tongue mechanism and you’ll get pushed all over the map instead of pulled in.
They eat raw meat while maturing and as an adult. Blood is just for taming.
The wild bloodstalker while perched on a branch or wall will shoot it's web at you while unmounted and pull you in, punch it to get it to let go.
Controls guide;
Right click (white circle): web grab, can grab creatures equal or smaller than a parasaur, Including players
Right click (hold): if you hit a scenario it will Push you to there and if you hit a creatures, hold to grab and kill the creature.
Left click double web (yellow circle): it's hard to explain you know when piter said "aim where you want to go" its kinda it it's more practice than anything else. But, you can hang yourself on the floor, just pull the web a little and don't jump.
Ctrl: can float, you can get a few meters higher if you jump while floating,
Hang yourself on the floor or floating can be very useful to dive into magmasaur nest. Just remember, you can get one next per try, the magmasaur will shoot you before you can leave the nest. Tô avoid this, leave the volcano tô stop the agroo.
This creature has a good utility to survivors: it sees creatures even in BLIZZARDS!! Which means a ferox is easy to find in a blizzard but remember; lock yourself on the ferox by walking right at it after getting off the bloodstalker, but always bring a grapple gun and a grappling hook but use it after feeding element but a second before looking at you in it’s giant, mutated form. [Grapple to anywhere like a “upper land” you see first, get some extra grappling hooks for practice hooking, but know how much hooks you need and find out how high it can grapple]
75 75 is the best spot for looking for these guys just look up into the giant trees for a bit with yer spy glass and you'll find one ez
Apparently there is a little bug where they will grab you and just let go for no reason so you cant tame them
Imma try to tame one wish me luck
Normal bloodpack method won’t give you full taming effectiveness, if you want full, you will need to tame a couple moschopses put them on passive, wear ghillie and whistle follow until your moschops is in the range of the bloodstalker.
Then it will web and kill your moschops and make its taming effectiveness grow, after it has killed a few, the taming eff. should be full, after that, continue with the bloodpack method.
You need lots of blood syringes. Let it latch onto you and it will eat them from your inventory.
Just build a pen for your blood stalkers and put a 1 to 5 dimetroodons depending on thier Melee damage in the pen. When you enable mateing just simply put the dimetroodons near the female blood stalker.
