Player-written tips for taming, using, and fighting the Desmodus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
I love the design on this the Desmondus it has an echo location ability and can turn invisible in the night. It should be able to pick creatures up. I’m very excited for its release
They are all over the swamp island on fjordur
The look in game may differ "slightly"....? That ladies and gentlemen, is a 2D cartoon bat xD
This might be modeled after an onyc based off the fact they are both bats but it might be tamed like a blood stalker cause this may be a vampire bat. It will likely reside in dark areas and it’s enemy would be titanaboa (like onyc)
It requires maybe 5-10 blood packs for a…

Tame a Snow Owl first, then get bloodpacks, heal yourself with its freeze attack, and repeat... Up for new players to know!
To get at %100 effectiveness and max lvls gained tame a good lvl moschop pump nothing but health put blood packs on the chop let bat pick up the chop not you it will gain effectiveness but not tame % once at %100 then let the bat grab you while having blood packs on you to…
To get at %100 effectiveness and max lvls gained tame a good lvl moschop pump nothing but health put blood packs on the chop let bat pick up the chop not you it will gain effectiveness but not tame % once at %100 then let the bat grab you while having blood packs on you to tame it up this to help pretty easy tame start with low lvl to get lots of easy packs for higher lvl
Desmodus can fly (obviously),it can go invisible, it’s rideable,
It can sense blood maybe, it can pick people up, it may be able to hang from the ceiling in caves.
you can use this to tame bloodstalkers
As others have stated. It takes a gd year to hit 100%. Your better off quantity over quality when looking for good states. Treat em like deins. Eventually you'll get decent stats. Honestly. Just quick tame all high levels and combine em when you get high rolls.
Can fly in tek cave on the island
I will only tame this bat if it looks just like the shown picture...lol just saying
With the medical stand you can farm blood packs to tame it with simply attach it to a high health creature and make sure to remove before it dies this way you can start with a high level even if effectiveness is still challenging
If you are entering a cave you know has these keep blood packs in you hotbar, they will take those instead of dealing damage to you. Plus you might accidentally tame it and have something to help distract the other desmodus
Just tamed a mated pair and I used a high level ovis with all points into health and I found that if you start the tame then let them grab the ovis several times to get it to 100% effectiveness then let them grab you to finish the tame. If you let them grab the ovis first they…
Just tamed a mated pair and I used a high level ovis with all points into health and I found that if you start the tame then let them grab the ovis several times to get it to 100% effectiveness then let them grab you to finish the tame. If you let them grab the ovis first they will slowly lose effectiveness as they're grabbing you, so it's best to get them mostly tamed then up the effectiveness and finally let them grab you to finish the tame
If you have a bronto or other berry gatherer you can pair them with desmodus to get infinite narcotics
i have looked at the youtube tier lists for fjordur and this is always at the top! i would argue but still good mount.
You don't need to sacrifice a creature to get taming efficiency up; just put some blood pack in the dino inventory, it'll save a lot of hp on the dino you're letting the desmo play with.
Also this seems to be faster efficiency gain than just letting it eat a…

Also this seems to be faster efficiency gain than just letting it eat a dinos hp, needs a bit more testing tho.
Here’s a some steps to tame a high level bat:
Step 1: get some blood packs from yourself(69-89)
Step 2: tame a low level desmodus
Step 3: use the desmodus to look for a high level you want
Step 4: look at Dododex to see how many blood packs you need

Step 2: tame a low level desmodus
Step 3: use the desmodus to look for a high level you want
Step 4: look at Dododex to see how many blood packs you need
Step 5: use the desmodus to get enough blood packs for that level
STEP 6: just go right in and tame that bad boy >:D
EXTRA: the reason I suggest taming a low level desmodus is because it would be faster to get blood packs using it rather than using yourself and having to wait to heal or respawn. Hope this helps!
If you need blood bags fast, get snow owl and have someone making blood bags and just tap the heal button on the owl and you heal Instant so can go again. Did this and got about 300 blood bags in about 30mins or so, only have 120 health. You should only need about 100 to tame…

Did this and got about 300 blood bags in about 30mins or so, only have 120 health. You should only need about 100 to tame most but bring extra because your not going be able to not grabbed by others, and bring parachutes
