Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a desmodus? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a desmodus.
Breeding. You can use Blood Packs to feed babies (and provides more food than meat.) The cool down timer is not the problem, the problem is render distance. Whether is game mechanic or bug, the babies will not eat blood packs when you leave render.
Solution - put raw meat and blood on meawing if your coming and going. If your staying, but blood. If your leaving tons of RAW meat. They will not eat cooked
Hello There! In order to tame this terrifying bat you need to have blood packs in your last slot or you could even use yourself if you have enough health.💀 Anyway, they can be found only on Fjordur (as far as I know) and they are basically nerfed during the day! Basically a Bat Blood-Stalker.😂
The baby Desmodus does eat meat although the consumption rate is massive, instead blood packs can be used as food for the baby it will just eat them when the hunger meter gets low giving the baby 200+ food.
YOU HAVE TO FEED THEM TAMES I.E. MOSCHOPS or else taming efficiency stays at 55%
Net gun all the bats you see, kill any low levels, then wait for the one you want to tame to get out of the net
To tame Dracula you’ll need lots of blood packs. It’s like a blood stalker basically. Let it scoop you up and suck your non blood!! 2-300 will do for most high lvs 1-200 for less than lv 100
1. Find Desmodus
2. Have a good level Moschops handy with high health, and bring a few hundred blood packs
3. Throw your Moschops at the bat. It should grab it and pick it up while flying around with it. This will increase taming effectiveness.
4. Once bat is at 100% TE, get it to grab you. It will start to eat the blood packs and begin taming.
Once tamed, it is incredibly useful. It generates blood packs when hurting an enemy, it can pick up small creatures and drain their life, they have echolocation and night vision, they can dive while flying and can attach to surfaces, but the best thing is that they can make Sanguine Elixir which, when used next to a Dino, will either imprint it or tame it by 30% (once per Dino). Overall badass tame.

Taming is kind like taming a blood stalker I think but it is tameable
Will probably take by pinning you to the ground and eating blood packs in your inventory
wonder if you can knock this out.
Yes this finally came into the game
I've heard it supposed to be a blood pack tame so you feed it blood packs similar to a bloodstalker whether it's a knock out or tame or what am unsure of
This dude will probably be tames like a blood stalker and have similar attack to a blood wyvern
Interchange letting it pick you and your moschops/pig up to keep 100% effectiveness, but after it pass 70% completed and is still on 100% efficacy, use a carefully timed elixir (easiest in a pen) to potentially get a perfect 225 on a 150 instead of 224. 😊

It's not necessary to have blood packs in your hotbar slot, you just have to have them in your inventory.
Do not raise these with a maewing and go out render distance it will cause the babies to starve!
This is really not the way to do it but if you just want one this is a ok way to go about it.
What I did was place a bed and a stone foundation and looked for a bat and that really all I did although I would recommend that you place the bed and foundation when you find your bat so you don’t have to be far away
Hope this helps anyone
So I tried to tame one. There were like 6 in the cave and they ALL came after me. Once I had one tamed, the other ones just killed it. This repeated until they were all dead. Please help
We need a proper photo for this amazing creature
Guys there’s someone who posted a really good tip in recourses in the blood pack section it even shows coordinates
