Tips & Strategies

Would not recommend fighting one of these even if you only see like one of them around you once you hit it thousands come out of nowhere and murder you
Once I just tamed my max lvl Pteranodon and I then it happened one dimorphodon came out of know where I guess I hit it or something earlier and it swooped in and hit my brand new pteranodon and just like that they were attacking each other and they couldn’t hit each other in the air and they went so high I couldn’t recall it and just like that I never saw my Pteranodon again
1 ^ = 1 prayer for my Pteranodon
If I could have 40 of one type of creature in ark, it would be this one. If you have at least 4 of them, you can look through a spyglass, press attack target, and watch your heat-seeking missiles wipe the target off the face of the earth in seconds. They are easy to tame too, as long as they are alone. If you hit one then all of them will immediately attack, swooping in to deal way too much damage and then swooping out of range. It is smart to bola them but I just use crossbow/tranq arrow. They only need one tranq arrow and their out. They tame quickly, but their torpor drains fast so you’ll need one biotoxin/two narcotics. It is easily worth it though. In groups they can take down much larger prey, but on their own they can easily die so make a pack before going on a hunt. Also don’t send them to attack brontos, Ankys, or stegos unless they have very large numbers! Rip Dimorphie, Morpha, Green Rocket and Blue Streak. All in all they are AMAZING creatures.
HOW TO TAME A DIMOPHORDON
Step 1. Get around 20 meat.
Step 2. Craft one bola and narcotic or bio toxin*
Step 3. Find a Dimophordon and make sure they dont have one of their buddies with them.
Step 4. Bola it and knock it out with your FISTS.
Step 5. Feed it meat and protect it while it tames. (If the unconsciousness gets low feed it a bio toxin or narcotics.)
Step 6. ENJOY YOUR NEW DIMOPHORDON!
You might not get it the first time and thats okay!
*Kill jellyfish and punch it to get bio toxin

I tamed a lvl 15 female one and named it Nova and she was really good. She killed a whole pack of lvl 20 carbonemys without taking any damage and I didn’t do anything except stand there and watch in shock and awe. This is a MUST tame for everyone who reads this. I was only lvl 10 at the time I tamed it and now I’m lvl 40 and this creature has never failed to impress me.
Combine a flock of 5 or more with a spyglass and you have a primitive sniper when whistle attack target on a unsuspecting player while scoped
I saw a few take down a Rex.. its scary.
It you put them on aggressive and perch em on your shoulder, they warn you of any danger with a scream. Usually it’s a diplo or a compy. If it weren’t for my dimo I would’ve died hundreds of times, he once yelled so I left and the next day i went back and say a giga killing a pack of raptors.
Strap a C4 and make it attack your target...
Really really good for attacking or defending a base because they attack the player not the mount they are riding
Things to know:
You need a decent bit of meat+heavy narcotics to tame
It's all or nothing, one dimo can't do nothing, but 5+ dimos is an op swarm
Be sure that if you hurt it, it either dies of is tamed, or you WILL be swarmed by them
How to tame a dimorphodon
1. Make sure it's friends are not around
2. Bola it or it will rip you to pieces
3. Knock it out by using fists or using tranq arrows
4. Feed it meat
5. Use a ton of narcotics I recommend bio toxin it's torpor goes down faster than a pteradon
6. Don't feed it alot of meat it eats fast
7. Enjoy your new strong shoulder pet!
Warning: these can kill almost everything so don't go infront of it when it's bola'd two low lvls killed my high lvl trike!

3. PUT A TENT OVER IT! i didi this and it saved me 3 hours of safety
4. Give it meat
5. Give it narco berries, i used this strategy and i now have a 150 friend
6. Enjoy a tactical nuke
