What are tips for dimorphodon? Tips and strategies for dimorphodon in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Tame every one of these you see regardless of level. Up only melee and maybe some health. Once you have 20-30 whistle for them to follow you and attack your target. Hit a rex, bronto, or literally anything that can die once and watch as your hurricane of teeth tears it apart.
Best tame for the time and narcotics. I have about 20 of these above lvl 200 defend my base.. They shred people along with my turrets. I also raid with 10+ of them. They make shooting at me impossible as they swarm people not their mounts. Use the spyglass to scope dinos or people and whistle attack target. It is an invaluable sniper tool.
P.S. Keep them close to your fabricator and smithy to level faster.
These things are crazy against giant dinos with big hit boxes, i saw a level 170 bronto with 15k health and i tamed 4 of these killers and the took him down in less than a 47 seconds, thier attack rate is so high that it makes their damage look ridiculus,i am gonna see if it is the same for titanosaur
Um guys? This Lil guy spawned in my base in South zone 1 I slept his food was drowned so I tranqued since it was in my south zone 1 it had no buddies I have no idea how it got there I got some meat and I tamed him he's now my little buddy who protects me =his name is Murray one green=1 love for little murray
These things are OP! If you tame a high level one they make an amazing shoulder pet (surpassed only by ferox I would say). Mine does like 250 dmg a bite and it works well if you have an aviary of them. If this helps, please up!!
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.
Ideal stats for the Dimorphodon:
-Bodyguard(1 or 2 of them)
>300-350% damage(20 bdmg+350%=90dmg bites)
>Rest into hp to avoid losing them
-Flock(3+)
>Make sure each has at least 450 hp
>All points into damage if they have 450+ hp
-Carry pal(1)
>They halve the weight of all items they hold while they're on your shoulder
>Minimum 450 hp
>All points into weight if they have 450+ hp
>Use to carry whatever items you don't specifically need at the time(structures, feeding narcotics, heavy items, etc)
I saw a 225 Rex once ran to get gear come back and watched it get killed by one of these shits up if you feel my pain
So it turns out that if you set this thing to aggressive and have it perch on your shoulder, it can shout at you to warn of incoming danger, which the Mesopithecus(Monkey) is also capable of, but will instead go “TAH! OOH- OOH!”. This is pretty useful in case you are near an animal that you won’t be able to survive an encounter with and don’t realize it. Dimorphodon will also throw a rather hard bite at your enemy to give you a fair hand in escaping, and may kill other creatures looking to prevent you returning home, however Mesopithecus is a better guardian because your monkey will throw balls of poop that slow the predator down, giving you the upper hand should it be that you should stand no chance should you decide to kill the predator. Either way both are quite effective at vocally warning you of danger ahead of time so you have time to correct your position to a safer location.
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.
