What is a desmodus used for? desmodus battling strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
I agree with the other person it will likely have echolocation so it helps you track things and it could maybe suck blood from your enemies with a rebuff that does damage over time and it will likely be stronger than a onyc. It could be like a guard or a flying army. Maybe it could even make blood packs from his enemies.
Will prob be a good tame 👍
Dont fully understand the glitch but on xbox multiplayer, the desmodus cannot reliably attack or use the invisibility. It started with just second player then we realized it switches back forth and even if only one player is using it sometimes the attacks just dont wont. Havent been able to find any other threads about this
These are probably the best flier for taming for one reason: You can shoot while flying. And unlike tapejara, you do it from the drivers seat.
Juice stamina to be sure you can stay in the air, keep yourself hovering out of reach and tranq away. If it runs, you can chase it down. Smaller animals can be carried (but not as much as argy can). You could probably chase down most fleeing fliers too. Great for me as I cannot seem to get traps to work.
This is without thinking about the elixir which will save you a ton of time on taming.
I found the best way to get blood and meat with this guy is fined a bronto and get right on the top of the back and it can't hit you there well the ones I tested didn't.and the blood can be used to farm blood stalkers cus you can put them all around your home perfrably cave and they can pull people off there tames .and you can heal on the fly with all the blood packs
