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

Get a C4 and attach it to one of these and then whistle attack. "Hunter killer drone deployed!"

While these things are op at destroying dinos, they can be countered by some creatures like stego, anky, and even a spinosaur, (You can only be on two legs to do any damage) I went on a killing spree in the swamp since I had just found out that everything ignores it and killed some dimorphs by accident, only to realize that you can destroy its friends too when they come for you.

Valguero aberrant area, specifically in the radiation zone now spawns aberrant versions of these guys.

Unexpectedly strong shoulder mount but slow on its own

One is an easy kill. Five might kill a tame. Twenty will flay you alive. Don’t underestimate these little guys, you never fight just one, the whole flock shows up too kill you. I’ve seen them kill argys, griffons, allosaurs and I’m almost certain that they can kill titanosaurs. All it takes is one miss click and 50 of them are swooping down at you to bite your face off. Hiding under water won’t save you, they’ll just hover above you and attack you when you come up for air. Maybe an assault rifle can kill them, although I only play on the mobile version I often read about other DLCs and flamethrowers sound best for dealing with them.

I saw a pack of these guys kill a Rex, don’t underestimate them.

I went to raid a base with 4 buddies, a rex, 3 carnos, and a bronto with a platform saddle and cannons. All we heard was a whistle and i swear about 50 of these little devil's swarmed the whole group, killing everyone in the group and one carno, the turrets shredded everything else, but the rex must have ran off and we never got a death message so its still out there in the jungle.

A tip for beginners:

If you attack these guys with your dinosaur be warned...

Even during riding your Mount, they will kill you first, not your dinosaur…

And they do tons of damage and are not that easy to hit with smaller dinosaurs (small hitbox)

Try to avoid them early game

Literally OP. Like no creatures can hit it while it’s just flying around you, killing you. Go into a body of water, hide for a while, and they will forget. I saved Sarco I (dead) this way. (She died from megalodons and jellyfish)

When in areas that have many dimorphadon remember to be careful and not to hit one by accident when fighting other creatures as you can easily be overwhelmed.your mount will not be able to save you as they deal damage directly to the rider.

Don’t aggro it in redwoods. DON’T AGGRO IT IN REDWOODS!

You can mutate the hell out of these. Mine pop at 3800 health and 860 melee. After points and imprints i can put them to 4,100 health and 2,100 melee. The cryo sick timer is as fast as a giga so i bring 20 to cave pvp. Throw them all down at once in a safe location. Once they wake you put one on your shoulder and the rest on follow, pop a beer, put them all on aggressive and grab a flame thrower. The most fun you will ever have I swear lol

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 pvp over. Got jumped by 3 wyv and won so…

Hit one of them,and the whole gang come a beat you up

I was wandering around gathering stone with my pteranodon and saw a pack of dimorphodons and thought why not, so I killed three and there was one left my pteranodon was fighting and they were spinning in circles going up and up and up and I thought I was going to lose my pteranodon but I managed to snipe it with a scoped rifle.

I learned this the medieum way, DONT hit one. I saw one sleeping and I wanted a flying pet and it circled me and even HIT me! Up this so that new players can see plz

They attack you instead of your mount while fighting them, beware.

saw few of them take down spino.....

I was on a hill and thought it wouldn’t hit me back when I attacked it so I hit it with a bow and everything was going well until I SEEN LIKE 5 MORE ARISE I was like “this is light work” until I realized that they do LOTS OF DAMAGE and they killed my dilo shortly after they killed me
