The thing with these birds is they always attack from behind. The only way to escape is to outrun it.
Dimorphodon

Player-written tips for taming, using, and fighting the Dimorphodon in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
So handy while traveling! I got swarmed by a pack of raptors, and one of these guys absolutely shredded through them. They can attack while on your shoulder, so just pump melee and have good armor and you might as well have a portable Rex on your back
When your giving the dimorph food while it is unconsious, treat it like a pteranodon, because they lose torpor faster than they drain food.
Was flying on my quetz and I watched a level 8 and 12 take out a level 56 Rex.
I like to keep one on my shoulder while exploring. If set to neutral, they will help you fight anything that attacks you, and is especially nice to take down those annoying meganeura and titanomyras. Exclusively pump meter damage
Even with a longneck rifle, remember to lead by a LOT when it's flying horizontally past you. Small hitbox + lag = some arrows and darts registering hits on your screen, but not on the server. At 30ms lag it's about a body length inc. tail.
Bolas really are the…

Bolas really are the best plan, to get them to SIT. THE HECK. DOWN. You need to lead more because of the slow travel time for bolas, but getting the dimo down is such a relief.
Aggroing headshots also works, but can do more damage than you intend. Make sure to bring a lot of bolas, and maybe clear the dimo's flight path of other dangers first so you don't, y'know, run directly into an alpha raptor while staring at the sky...
Ghillie suits are great if you're trying to snag one in a dangerous area! Good luck building your death swarm.
Don’t try to use a club to knock it out make sure to bring tranquilizer arrows. Or else 🫣
Awesome tames. Keep one on your shoulder to protect you, just keep an eye out you don't throw it by accident. They can run caves but you may lose some especially if you go through water. Use a Tapejara on patrol and have a murder of 5 or more kill damn near anything. Turn…
Awesome tames. Keep one on your shoulder to protect you, just keep an eye out you don't throw it by accident. They can run caves but you may lose some especially if you go through water. Use a Tapejara on patrol and have a murder of 5 or more kill damn near anything. Turn off their resource gathering or it'll be stuck with too much meat.
Bola it and then punch it they only take a few hits and it saves tranq arrows.
Pair a few of these with a dilophosaurus for the perfect escort team, recommend having at least 4 to 1.
They're annoying, I got a pack of it chasing me and my argentavis and kill us both,, no matter how fast,, you can't shake them lil missiles
So you want a stego football bola tranq and feed
Breed for speed: When using 5+ following you on a flyer like a Torpe. You can move faster than most mounts. It makes them a flying missile much harder to hit. If you aim your x on the rider they will attack the rider not the tame. And with 50/50 speed/dam just a few hits and…

Lil ol moon me took a stroll and attacked 1 by accident, that was the end of strolls for me.
Beginners do not attack these they take abbsalutly hours to take and hotpot runs out so fast
To counter dimorphodons it’s very easy. The pteranodon barrel roll. Gotta keep landing for stamina though.
I promise you these are THE STRONGEST ARK MOBILE Dino’s of all time. I bred my dimorphs all level 20-30 just once and put everything into attack. Next thing I see it’s ONE SHOTTING BRONTO’S with almost 3K damage!!!
These re op. On pvp servers in mobile, there is a glitch that makes them travel infinite distance to attack a targeted foe. They are easily tameable, hit them with a bola, use a slingshot because they have low torpor, and feed them. Have narcotic ready to feed them.
If you get one and keep it on your shoulder, they can really easily kill flying bugs, and they will collect meat for you

I had one named diamond she was always there for meand help me killed a therizinosaure when it attacked me behind my back. She can distract and attack the creature attacking tout while you kill it. She died because of my stupid cousin who had her in her shoulder and stand on the fire and died burnt so my diamond. I hope she is now in a better place ;-; .
