My friend: you tamed that low level Des?
Me: I did, still not craft the saddle for it so it's in cryopod
My friend: HOW? The blood bags are still in the fridge.
I smiled as she shocked by the massive red messages in tribe log.
You don't need blood packs to tame a Desmodus, you are the blood pack yourself. Just pack 3 beds and sacrifice yourself to the low level Desmodus so you can have blood packs for higher levels.... or just do it the normal, painless way.
Use a megalaina to increase its taming effectiveness make sure to put some lvl into the megalainas health works like a charm moshops work to but found megas better
Pretty important to note that in order to receive the extra levels for efficiency you need to "feed" it a passive small creature before/ during the taming process. Each time it feeds on you it loses efficiency I don't know what tame is best used but I am using a Moschops and it is working well.
Easy taming :
1) Use med brew to heal yourself while you extract blood packs with a blood extraction syringe. About 100 is fine.
2) Agro bats and run away. Wait until a lower level one gets left alone.
3) Get your best armour and clear the area. Put blood packs in your last slot and let the bat pick you. Don't struggle, just stay still.
4) After taming, use it to gather blood packs. Then tame a Higher level bat.
One of the comments suggest using snow owl to get blood for first one. Not bad, but every time you heal using owl, it’ll go through your meat. If you can make med brew.
Easy not try hard taming: Put blood packs in your inventory, and multiple parachute. Let it grab YOU, after a little it'll drop you, parachute down. Repeat, easy. These comments make you think it's hard, it's not.
These tames are insane at killing alphas I have a 170 was a level 80 wild tame and I have killed over 20 alphas in two days that includes level 90 alphas Rex’s they are also use blood packs to instant heal once they reach a low enough health percent
Get a good pteranodon, build a trap made of double doorways and a gate in the front, use the pteranodon to lure the bats into the trap(Pteranodons can fit through double doorways but bats can’t) net gun all the bats, close the gate, kill the low level bats, then tame the one you want.
They pick you up and eat blood packs out your inventory
Tame a bad level first than tame high level with the blood packs that it gives you
I really like what they did with the image I hope they do that more.
Bro his current picture looks so cute like a harmless chibi cutie
