ARK: Survival Evolved & Ascended Companion
Tips & Strategies

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!

THE ELIXIR IT MAKES DOES WORK ON PASSIVE TAMES!!! You just have to feed it the required food first and then you can use the elixir!
Echolocation will probably work like snow owl and bloodstalker mixed together
Desmodus are immune to radiation. Tried and tested. Great for rock drake trench. :)
to change the ability to lifesteal for console is holding square while riding it up for more people to see
This is one of the best tames in all of ark! It is the only flyer that can go in caves it has night vision it can go invisible and it has echolocation. It can get blood packs very easily. And it is the only way to craft sanguine elixer which can give an automatic 30% to either taming or imprinting ( note it can only be used once per imprint/tame) it also has a life steal effect and you can shoot while riding. It is also fast and has a dive ability kind of like the snow owl it can land on walls and roofs and also it has decent health and melee. Definitely worth the tame!
You can detect active bee hive using screech on them. The one with the Queen bee will be highlighted. Up if new
Only harvest's regular meat and spoiled meat, donβt try for prime or mutton, just goes straight to spoiled meat. ^^^
These guys are super good. They can go through caveβs without dismount, immune to radiation and capture rock drake egg easy as pie on fjorder. Tame them as soon as you can π¦
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
