What is a desmodus used for? desmodus battling strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
You can collect blood packs and spoiled meat with these guys as well as with two hundred bloods packs you can make a taming elixir this elixir can be force fed to a knocked out creature to make its taming bar go up by 30% and for passive tames you must feed it regularly first and then put this in your last spot in your hot bar. You can also use weapons on the back of this guy and I would recommend taming a low level first and collecting enough blood packs to tame a high level.
I hope this helps!

These guy are great at stealing wyvern eggs, go invisible at night and boom easy wyverns or any egg you want. They can go in caves so feel free to get some rock drake or magmasaur eggs. Blood packs to tame of just let them eat at your health sacrificing an tamed animal with blood packs gives good taming effectiveness. Blood packs can be farmed by a desmodus and crafted into sanguine elixir which will give an instant 30% taming. Can dive silently, not as good as GRIFFINS but you gain good speed. They can latch on to ceiling or walls and can do a screech showing the location of dinos. (THIS WORKS BETTER AT NIGHT) I use mine to tame gigas since you can shoot on them. That's all I have to say
I know your gonna name you desmodus DRACULA don't lie
Love it except...when I am holding anything it will not attack. I was holding a GPS and another time a torch and I couldn't get it'l to attack. Attaching torch onto it's saddle works but I was killed by something stupid when I realised my mouse presses were not working. I was holding my GPS.
Harpoon net traps what you want for easy picking of the ones you don't. Let them pick you up with blood bags in your inventory. Will drop you so have parachute. Gather blood bags per hit and spoiled meat and raw meat upon eating corpses. Screech sonars enemies in front of you. Can fly in caves and latch onto walls
These are gonna replace pteradons as a scout and early tame IMO. a) latching to walls let's you regain stamina and turn invisible during the day. b) 200 blood bags gets you 1 Sanguine Elixir that can only be used once for each creature your taming to increase taming progress by 30%. P.S I think since they fly and latch to walls like tapejara they might be able do ceilings too
