It can only go invisible when latching onto a wall or roof, or from 9:00 PM to 5:15 AM

Use blood packs when raising babies to optimize your growth with a long shelf life and stacks of 100 makes for super easy raising

One of the greatest secret abilities of the desmodus is its ability to fly in caves. Unlike many flyers, the desmodus is actually able to fly without any setting changes required.

Tame a gloon set it on auto mesmerized. There’s a broken glitch in the game as soon as they rip you off whatever mount you’re on it will automatically tame it 👍🏽 hurry get all the vampires/ get to breeding . I just went in to a cave and accidentally did it by having it on my shoulder, trying to get drops tamed every single one that ripped me off my mount instantly.

This is one of the best tames you can get, dont lose it!!!

Pros:

- good stats hp/damage/weight/stamina

- good fly speed

- can get invisible in the night

- screech

- can latch on any place even trees (careful, the stamina recover is slow when it is latching and if got attacked they loose the wall)

- collect a lot of blood, meat and spoiled meat

- you can use the blood to make elixirs that increase the taming efficiency in 30%( just 1 elixir per tame)

- can shoot while flying

- fast landing

- fast hp recovery

Cons:

- collect too much spoiled meat

- they gathering is limited ( dont get hide, prime and other things)

I dont have any real bad thing to say about desmodus, they have a lot of pros (some I dont listed) and even the cons are not bad, are useful and balanced. Desmodus eat meat, but prefer blood and it recover their hp with this. Now I cant live in ark without one!!

These Oversized Onycs are extremely easy to tame for such a versatile and powerful mount, if you have enough bloodpacks they’re literally a guaranteed tame, as when they pick you up they don’t damage you, and if there’s other bats they can’t damage you either if another bat has already picked you up.

I was shocked to say the least when I tamed a low level to farm blood packs for higher level Desmodus ,

shocked at how powerful it was even at such a low level, 25 when i tamed it, I was able to take down 2 high level Stegos, 145 I believe and the other tek and 95 speaking of level 95s, I also destroyed a level 95 Carno as well as a level 145 trike that couldn’t reach me but I could reach it ,

Now that I’ve got some high levels, just now tamed a female level 145 now level 186 after taming ,with really nice Easter colours too , and a male that’s a good level, 122 after taming from not sure what level since that one came out of nowhere, lol.

I’m back at base with them both as typing this and just might breed them, the fact they can breed is also crazy considering they 1.Are capable of Harvesting an infinite supply of blood packs.

2. Are Overpowered,( I love them for it)

3. can go invisible at night or while latching, ( if you play pvp this could be real useful)

4. Able to shoot off of them while riding including when they’re latched,

5. Did I mention when latched they don’t even drain stamina?

6.Did I mention they’re overpowered ????

7. Can pick up players and some creatures , combine that if you play pvp and it’s night you can ambush someone off their Giga or something and kill them easy,( not sure if Desmodus can be detected with parasails if they would have a parasail with them or something)

On ASA, you can use the medical stand with a high health creature (such as a diplodicus) to get tonnes of blood packs to tame them.

Hands down the best flier I've ever tamed I used it to kill rexes, allo packs ,and deinychus and had full heal when I got to base. I hight recommend but it can only get blood ,raw meat ,and spoiled meat no muten , hide ,prime meat ,or pelt.

It can turn invisible at night and while it is latched upside down during both night and day. Every time it bites a creature, it adds blood packs to it's inventory, making it good to use to tame bloodstalkers. It collects tons of spoiled meat when it eats corpses making it also good for narcotic farming. It has echolocation which allows it to ping all nearby creatures, and finally it has the ability to dive similar to the griffin and snow owl. It's tamed passively by putting blood packs in the last slot of your hotbar and letting it pick you up.

Put lots raw meat in maewing when raising babies. Do not use blood packs or cooked meat. It will starve due to the cool down timer on blood packs.

A 150 is about 170 blood packs on 1x offical

To Tame it you mite need blood packets

Hey tribe mate knock that bob out and get the syringe

Fun fact: if you feed the elixir to a baby, juvenile or adolescent Dino even if it’s not ready for it next imprint go into the baby’s inventory and eat the elixir in your inventory and it will give the Dino a 30+ imprint bonus.

Can only turn invisible at night and screech reaches really far , amazing tame u need blood packs grabs you like bloodstalker will eat the blood packs to tame

If you only have a low lvl desi, Diplo are basically walking blood banks. You can easily get a couple hundred blood packs without taking any damage. Can also leave the Diplo alive for more at a later time.

Use a daedon on passive to increase taming effectiveness. Has much higher health, heal rate and a saddle which allows it to easily tank lvl150 bats

To farm blood packs insanely fast find a high level doedicrus and attack with desmodus so easy...

Do you have to give it blood packs ???

I haven’t seen anyone mention anything about babies but they eat raw meat they won’t drink blood the blood packs. Hope this helps

If your trying to find a decent cave=

On fjordior there is a swamp island there on the swamp island there are two caves the big one just has bugs in it the smaller tunnel one has a few onycs and like 2-3 desmodus in it but the cave is kinda hard to find the cave is pointing to the autumn section of the other island

Like the entrance of it.

(Sorry if that sounded confusing)
