How ARK players tame and knock out the Desmodus: what to feed it, what to knock it out with, and how to keep it safe.

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.

It was hard to tame my 156 it’s took a lot of blood I died a lot

Make sure to bring a parachute it’s going to drop you sometimes k

Bring BLOODPACKS to tame :)

I really like what they did with the image I hope they do that more.

For modded official Tharat:

For anyone else seeking answers in future. Its normal desmodus taming method. Either keep blood packs in inventory and let it pick you and eat those.

Or put a bunch of sleeping and keep feeding yourself to it.

Tip: dont summon it in open with…

Tame a bad level first than tame high level with the blood packs that it gives you

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.

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…

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…

You can do it with no blood packs but you need a crap ton of med brews

Easy tame, Ride on andrewsarchus and shoot with fab or longneck, get it to attack high hp moschops and then run under it with blood packs. Great flyer on day 2. Tamed 3 in under 30mins.

A really cool idea for the Desmodus (since it's a vampire bat) is basically give it blood offerings by giving it unconcious dinos to feed onto... or yourself if you're brave enough. The bigger the dino, the faster/better the tame. ALSO I second the petition to make…

As of right now on Tuesday 6/14/22 they use less blood packs then the taming calculator says, I would still bring more then needed though about 80/120 blood packs for 130-150 tames, once you tame one just using basic right trigger atacks on wild dinos will get you blood packs…

If you carry enough blood pack you will accidentally tame them all. lol guess ive got an army now.

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

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…
