How do I kill a desert titan? desert titan battling strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
This is the story of the many wyvern’s, who died fighting for the good of all.
The titan came out of the corruption from where it came, my faithful wyverns behind me, and me riding Shockwave, my lightning wyvern.
We hit it head on, fighting it with all our might. All was well, until the flocks came. They damaged our tames, and killed a few. It was at about quarter health when Snowy, my first ever ice wyvern, was lost to the flocks of the desert titan. In the end everyone but me was dead, body’s of wyverns strewn across the desert.
Little known fact: the desert titan is the lightest creature in ark weighing only three kilograms.

I tamed the Desert titan
It was hard because it took me 10 hours to tame it
Get a quetzal with a platform and build a structure that can hold a giga, toss the cryo glitch the giga easy kill in about 2 minutes solo
a 200 managarm with 10k+ hp and 200+ dmg and just keep lazering it.
ez clap.
Slap some minigun turrets on a quetz platform saddle, get a couple tribe mates and 3k bullets (you need 2100, but expect to miss a bit) then spawn the titan and open fire
Yes. Desert Titan is a desert titan found in a desert that makes people go yes.
Just killed it using a slightly bred managarmr. All you gotta do is make sure the managarmr youre using has good damage, then just dash through the titan, youre too fast for its flock and its zap.
Can literally be killed with a Managarmr, stand right below and shoot straight up, also you might want to evade the occasional lightning strike.
Alright gang, this is it.
My wyverns are almost fully grown, and it’s almost time to fight this thing for the first time after having all my stuff wiped by a glitch. The battle will be intense, as I play with default settings (I pretty much just have a bunch of 20th level wyverns. Eh. It worked last time.), so cross your fingers and hope for the best, as I will post the results soon. Until then, continue the good work. 👍

To anyone who wants to kill it, read this:
The Titan’s attack pattern:
-Will shock any creatures close to it enough (you will be notified when you are going to be lightning-shocked).
-The 2 tiny, shiny flying swarms are called Flocks, these will target you and you will be notified “You are being targeted by the Flock”, try to avoid this at all cost! It does ~1000 damage to your flying mount and dismounts you, which is really dangerous. Highly recommend that you bring parachutes in case the Flocks attacked you.
-Tail whip when you stand on it’s body, might insta-kill you, not recommended position to stand on.
*These are what I found from my own experience so there could be more attack patterns not being mentioned.
These are what I prepared, which is not so hard to get:
-A decent level lightning wyvern (good stamina is recommended). Just try to spit lightnight at it and avoid the Flock.
-Armor, parachutes, cooked meat (to heal the wyvern in case it got damaged)
Good Luck.
I beat it with 7 lvl 137-167 snow owls all imprinted and 5 lvl 180 argentavis all imprinted and only took about 2 minutes. Note on don’t ride on of them be below it and shoot it with shotgun and/or fabricated sniper rifle.
Throwing out a Cryo'd Dreadnoughtus onto its back still works if anyone's wondering
I did it!
The battle went way better than I thought! Out of the 13 wyverns, 1 died and the rest are not even scratched. I have just started grinding for the replicator, (which is soul crushing) and preparing for the ice titan.

P.S, I think I was just lucky.
If you want to fight the flying manta you need fire talons yugan kill corrupted wyvern that they can give you fire talons or you can just import them from scortched earth just buy putting them into the oblisque
Tributes to summon are 1 Artifact of Chaos, 100 corrupted hearts, 10 fire wyvern talons, and 10 sarco skins.
With the managarmr laser nerf where range affects damage, the managarmr strategy is much harder to pull off. I reckon that a quest platform saddle loaded with velonasaurs should do the trick for killing it.
