What are tips for desmodus? Tips and strategies for desmodus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Set up stone pillars in front of the cave entrance so theres no gaps for the bats to leave. They wont spawn block the cave. One you have them up shoot an arrow at one you dont want and the will all fly into the stone pillars. You can them kill the ones you dont want and save the the one you do with hit getting swarmed.
Kill all the other surrounding Desmodus so they don’t interrupt your tame
You can collect blood packs and spoiled meat with these guys as well as with two hundred bloods packs you can make a taming elixir this elixir can be force fed to a knocked out creature to make its taming bar go up by 30% and for passive tames you must feed it regularly first and then put this in your last spot in your hot bar. You can also use weapons on the back of this guy and I would recommend taming a low level first and collecting enough blood packs to tame a high level.
I hope this helps!

My baby Desmodus starved after draining 30 stacks of red meat from both maewaings nursing her and a shadowmane baby... The shadow baby still alive, but after all this time, there's still something wrong with the Desmodus baby hanger... Frost they destroy all the fish stacks, then, they drink blood while we are online, after we logoff they destroy the red meat stacks... I quit breeding Desmodus...
Does not require blood sacks to take just let it grab you
Level 145 only takes 32 blood packs on 1x
Using a high hp deinoch with blood packs on it seems to raise the efficiency quicker then lower hp stuff
Don’t try taming loads at once- they will kill each other, and then you end up with only one low level or you just die cause it’s a flock of bats. Up so noobs know
You should probably find a cave and take dodo blood
Without blood bags babies will go through the meat extremely quickly. Not much of a problem when they're newborn but becomes more apparent as they age. Be sure there's some available
These guy are great at stealing wyvern eggs, go invisible at night and boom easy wyverns or any egg you want. They can go in caves so feel free to get some rock drake or magmasaur eggs. Blood packs to tame of just let them eat at your health sacrificing an tamed animal with blood packs gives good taming effectiveness. Blood packs can be farmed by a desmodus and crafted into sanguine elixir which will give an instant 30% taming. Can dive silently, not as good as GRIFFINS but you gain good speed. They can latch on to ceiling or walls and can do a screech showing the location of dinos. (THIS WORKS BETTER AT NIGHT) I use mine to tame gigas since you can shoot on them. That's all I have to say
I know your gonna name you desmodus DRACULA don't lie
They hang on the ceilling, I ran past them all the first time I went to search for them.
