You can use tools like guns or crossbows of their backs. And since they can also latch to walls you can latch to a wall and shoot other dinis

Babies take bloodpacks as food when raising.
THEY ARE ON LOST COLONY!!! - Nnate
Many people aren't saying it here but the seemingly best spot to find desmodus are in caves, like the jade cave at 65 lat - 40 long or on the bottom left island in the first large divet of land on the map if you follow the coastline east, you'll see the green crystal…
Many people aren't saying it here but the seemingly best spot to find desmodus are in caves, like the jade cave at 65 lat - 40 long or on the bottom left island in the first large divet of land on the map if you follow the coastline east, you'll see the green crystal nodes and the Greenland style plates of rock near the snow biome. Happy rabbies time
Man there’s all these tips about how everyone loves it’s art—and here we are, and it’s cartoon is no more

They also spawn in the cave near the emerald trench.
Lat: 68.2
Lon: 37.3
Only raw meat heals them, cooked does not work
It is the only flyer that can naturally fly in caves and the Realms.
If you want a high level, get a moschops, level it all into health, find a 140-150 desmo, lure it somewhere, get it to grab you with some blood packs, and a sanguine elixir, as soon as he’s about to grab you spam the elixir that’s on your hotbar and start the tame. Throw…
If you want a high level, get a moschops, level it all into health, find a 140-150 desmo, lure it somewhere, get it to grab you with some blood packs, and a sanguine elixir, as soon as he’s about to grab you spam the elixir that’s on your hotbar and start the tame. Throw out your chops once he drops you, stuff some blood packs in and spend the next hour letting the desmo grab the chops over and over till 100% and then let the desmo grab you to finish taming. - may have to get it to grab the chops again to get back up to 100%
Babies eat raw meat but a ton of it… for efficiency use blood packs they give 200+ food and have a long shelf life with stacks of 100
I'm just saying, but this thing will defo be a sick flyer to have and especially to mutate
YOU CAN'T STEAL WYVERN EGGS WHILE INVIS. THEY STILL HIT YOU. LOST SO MUCH LAST NIGHT. DON'T DO IT.
At night while not latching or flying if you stay still you are COMPLETELY INVISIBLE! That’s right no air distortion or anything you can’t even see yourself! You look like just like air,
So, desmodus is the genre of the vampire bat, but since this is ark, and there’s already a “small” bat. You can pretty much guarantee that it will not be as little or cute as the cover page.
To raise baby put blood and meat in maewing then it wil eat Every 7 minutes with out blood in maewing it eat evry 30 sec
For a decent level one you only need some 40-60 blood packs, and just have them in your inventory, not in your hotbar(although you can have them on hotbar) and then agro it. I use a longneck, but you can just use a bow. Once it agros let it get you. It will grab you and carry…
For a decent level one you only need some 40-60 blood packs, and just have them in your inventory, not in your hotbar(although you can have them on hotbar) and then agro it. I use a longneck, but you can just use a bow. Once it agros let it get you. It will grab you and carry you around, draining blood packs, and taming. The game will tell you to attack to escape but don’t do that it won’t help the taming. If your looking for some on fjordur, then from the mainland go to the snowy mountains across the ocean and look for hexagon pillars of rock, forming a canyon, exactly like a wyvern trench. There will be 2 cave entrances, take the one on the right. You can do this at any level as long as you have:
A flyer to get there and back
Blood packs.
If on x1 taming rates then you should only need ~50 blood packs for a level 100.
Try to tame a low level one first so you can farm blood packs with it, it'll shorten the farming time for a high level bat.
You can also tame a Daeodon first and use it's healing aura when extracting the first few packs, the pig can also help you raise the taming…
Try to tame a low level one first so you can farm blood packs with it, it'll shorten the farming time for a high level bat.
You can also tame a Daeodon first and use it's healing aura when extracting the first few packs, the pig can also help you raise the taming effectiveness for future high level tames, just let it wander on passive near the Desmodus you want to tame, keep some blood packs on it's inventory and let it get picked, it'll raise the effectiveness.
Let it pick you afterwards and feed on your blood packs to raise the taming meter, when it's about to tame, be sure to check if the effectiveness is close to 100%, if not just let it pick the Daeodon some more.
It can only go invisible when latching onto a wall or roof, or from 9:00 PM to 5:15 AM
Would be op on gen 1 for bloodstalkers because desmo = blood packs
Use blood packs when raising babies to optimize your growth with a long shelf life and stacks of 100 makes for super easy raising
