Taming & KO Tips
How do I tame a desmodus? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a desmodus.
You can STEAL WYVERN eggs using the invisibility ability at night
You should tame a low level first get tons of blood packs then tame a high level
Blood extraction syringe + snow owl = easy blood packs to tame your first desmodus
Steps to Tame a high level Desmodus with 100% Effektiveness (you need a low level Desmodus to start) :
Step 1: Tame a Stego/Andrewsarchus and saddle them (the saddle on the Andrew is essential!)
Step 2: Tame a Moschops of any level
Step 3: Farm 400-600 Bloodpacks
Step 4: After finding your target Desmodus take out your Stego/Andrewsarchus and your Moschops
Step 5: Put all the Bloodpacks except for the last 100 in the Moschops (the other 100 you keep in your own inventory)
Step 6: put the Moschops on "Following: Lowest" and let it follow your Andrew/Stego
Step 7: Aggro the Desmodus by approaching it and let it grab the moschops, the Desmodus will eat 10 Bloodpacks from the Moschops' inventory and then drop it, this will raise its Effectiveness by 1-3% (repeat this until the Desmodus is at 100% Effectivness. Do not unmount while doing this!)
Step 8: once the Desmodus is at 100% Effectiveness unmount and offer yourself up to the Desmodus. It will grab you and eat 10 Bloodpacks and then drop you.
Step 9: after it dropped you immediately mount your Andrew/Stego again. And let it grab the Moschops again so it's Effectiveness goes back up to 100%
Step 10: Repeat Step 8 & 9 until the Desmodus is tamed.
This will allow you to get perfect tames.
Babies CAN EAT MEAT as a baby to raise them.
In Fjordur the spawn locations are :
Latitude:38 Longitude:75, inside a cave under a waterfall
Latitude: 90 Longitude: 78, cave as well
Latitude: 50 Longitude: 14, cave
Use a Daedon, put meat inside, set to passive, passive healing on and kill all the other desmodus until there is only one, then duck under the Daedon and the desmodus will grab it, suck it's blood and the effectiveness will go up 3-4%, don't leave the area, hide and wait until 100%. Once 100% effectiveness, let it grab you (make sure you have 150-200 blood packs) and you'll tame it. Use cryopods if possible to bring back the Daedon.
They can't dismount you from an Andrewsarchus saddle sit safely within the cockpit and pick off the bats you don't want
Use tames that is carry-able by the desmodus that's on wonder and passive and get the desmodus to pick it up several times and this will increase taming effectiveness .
Make sure to have parachutes because they fly up when taming and will drop you.
Babies take bloodpacks as food when raising.

They also spawn in the cave near the emerald trench.

This thing literally picks me up when I was away from my screen. Luckily I had enough heath and it was just taming while it was caring me around and stuff so I suggest just standing where it’s at and just let you carry it away but if your health is not over 1000 then don’t do it.
You can do it with no blood packs but you need a crap ton of med brews
Not CRAZY hard to tame, but still hard
All you need is:
About 300 bloodpacks (Probably overkill)
A daedon (leveled in health, also put 100 bloodpacks in its inventory)
An andrewsarchus (idk if you need a saddle or no, but this will be your shelter)
Keep the remaining 200 bloodpacks in your inventory, and find your bat and set up camp. Send out your daedon by the bat. MAKE SURE EVERYTHING NEARBY IS PASSIVE. Go run under your daedon and wait for the bat to attack and pick up your pig. This will boost its effectiveness. After that, let him pick YOU up. This will tame the creature. Rinse and repeat
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
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.
Tame a bad level first than tame high level with the blood packs that it gives you
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
To Tame it you mite need blood packets
Hey tribe mate knock that bob out and get the syringe
