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.

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.

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

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…

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…

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 5: use the…

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…

Desmodus, along with any fjordur and lost isles exclusives are not on the switch edition despite their saddle being unlockable, spawn commands don’t seem to work to spawn them either.

As no one mentioned this at all the effectiveness goes up depending on the HP of the tame you are "feeding" it I find daedons are the best way as they have a high health stat

To tame it I would recommend a moschops so when the bat picks it up taming effectiveness is boosted when you have 100% effectiveness let it grab you and I recommend have ATLEAST 100 blood packs, more would be recommended for higher levels. Once all that is done you should have…

Picks you and eats blood bags as it Flys around with you in claws to tame

If you let it feed on a smaller creature multiple times, IE a maschops with good health, it raises the taming effectiveness before taming it. Bring a snow owl to keep the maschops healed. Takes patience but gets you higher levels

Similar to the bloodstalker you'll need to sacrifice a tame in order to raise the taming effectiveness. I suggest bringing a moschops since it's the biggest thing it can carry. Bring two just in case, and once it reaches 100% lure it away from the moschops and let it…

People you don’t need ten blood sacks I was just wrong with that tip I said. you need way more

How to tame. 1: find one they come in 2-4 of them in a group then kill the ones you don’t want. Then put blood pack in your inventory then let it pick you up then make a saddle a now you can fly in caves!👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🦇🦇🦇🦇🦇🦇

They are pretty easy to tame. It’s best to make almost 100 blood packs and go to the emerald trench and there will be desmodus on the roof of the cave.

Tame low level first to gather easy blood packs with, put fence supports to the ceiling at end of the main desmodus cave on fjordur desmodus can't fly through them, kill low levels save desired level, send in high level moschops with blood packs to get to 100 efficiency

Guys if you don’t want to go into a cave to get these they also spawn on the swamp island in Midgard.
