How do I kill a dimorphodon? dimorphodon battling strategies in ARK: Survival Evolved.
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.
Watched 5 of these beasts all lvl 100 Shred a 240 Rex in mere seconds.
If you get an army of these and strap a C4 to all of them they are Better than a turret.
As a noob I thought these things were really cool so stunned it with the bola and knocked out with club.
The tame wasn't successful though because I had nothing to keep it asleep.
I decided to kill it when it woke up cause it stole my raw meat thinking an iguanadon could kill it easily.
Rip iguanadon
Make sure you feed em fish once hatched, raw meat = don’t eat.
I had two Mikey and Leo RIP didn’t last long because I’m not a master at what can kill them but the poop throwing things can kill them and a brontosaurus can kill them I don’t know if any others so far but if I find out I’ll keep you updated.
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…
I have seen two of them take down a Rex no problem
If they attack you while your mount depending on what the animal it is, they will counter attack YOU not your mount. I hope you respawn close but you'll find the animals ok unless something else came along.
It looks cool when a dimorph is doing its level up animation on your shoulder
they killed my quetzal, THEY KILLED MY QUETZAL!!! AHHHHH
Be careful these things are strong you can find them mostly every were in the forest biomes and beaches if you acedentaly hit them thy will kill you I had raptor named bronze and I acedentaly punched Therese guy luckily bronze was there he killed them even though I could just kill it my self one thing you need remberis if you hit these guys and they run away when they are low health they will come back to kill you until your dead or there dead
Watch out, they ignore your mount by doing damage to you instead of doing damage to your dino
Beware of these things
Cuz they are Absolute Monsters.
A Group of 2-6 easily Shredded a lv. 40-ish Spino like it was paper.
I really hate this guys u should get a pack of raptors if u wanna mess with them(at least 3 raptors) bc raptors can shred through their hp with their attack speed
They are so cute but are very dangerous. I saw a pack of 3 kill a level 20 sarco! They absolutely perfect to have on your side. You can get easy hide and meat from just sitting in your base and letting you dimes go outside and KILL EVERY THING IN SITE
I laugh when I read about people freaking out over dimorphodons on mobile because they accidentally stepped on one and have 25+ of them come after them. I have stepped on these buggers so many times I lost count. However there is a way to live if you do step on one and a swarm comes for you. All you need to do is have a large such as a therizinosaurs,bronto,rex,giga,etc. Stay in one place preferably on a rock or such where you have higher ground. Then just start attacking them continuously without moving from that spot. You will begin to see their bodies shoot off like baseballs. This is the fun lovable sport called dimorph ball.
If you wanna be like general RAAM from gow get 5 to 10 of these babys to escort you , lv heath then damage and they shred . Also will protect you if you get dismounted whilst on a carno or something. I point and click at brontos and my swarm disintegrates it .
If you use mobile and you have a raptor, you can use the pounce to pin it to the ground. Has helped me when there is only one remaining but am almost dead.
If you find one try to tame it and others the attacks you can unleash with just 10 death birds is insane
