What is a dimorphodon used for? dimorphodon battling strategies in ARK: Survival Evolved.
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.
Bro this creature is crazy good. I was ambushed by a pack of raptors,at least 6 of them I killed all but one. It was a lvl125. But I was banged up from the other raptors. I was one hit from dying and suddenly the raptor died and I didn't realise that the reason why I was able to kill the 5 of them so quickly and why the last one died until I saw the death messages. Bruh... my divorce was destroying them without me knowing and saved me from my final hit of the raptors and I also forgot that I kept my dimorph on my shoulder so I was quite confused till I saw the death messages and the remove from shoulder button. Guys this tames are op. But not against stegosaurus or ankylosaurus. If this was useful ^ me
Make sure you level up stamina like a lot before you set him out on a mission sniper my dimorphodon went to kill some carbonemys when he ran out of stamina and had to land and as we all know they don't have much health so sniper was killed you can fight one creature at a time with the stamina he starts with but two carbonemys will kill your dimorphodon
Here's the easiest way to raid every caves, litteraly every caves on the map
First of all, tame a male & female (beware, at the first second you'd start to tranq one, he'd take of, and fly at a huge speed, to attack you back, so, you'd pretty much incapable of taming one, except ridiculously low levels)
2nd point as you'd be able to tame only low level, you'd need to make them attack a lot of low levels creatures, in order to get them some xp
Higher levels would just run away, or kill your futur flying fighter machine
After a while, start to breed them (would need a fully closed build, but really small, your own building would be too large, and they won't breed;
If you'd left any door, any windows open, it would goes aways before completing the process of breeding)
Then, once you'd got a huge amount winged teeth, with good level, you may start training them on higher levels creatures, like a trike
And repeat the process of breeding since beginning etc
After, at least, five or ten breeding and training sessions, you'd start to be able to raid the south cave
Wait, it's might be the hardest way to raid caves, finally...
I went to get some keratin from carbonemys and I took my dimorphodon heat seaker to help me kill them turtles when I saw a trike waddling around eating plants so I sent heat seaker out to kill him but the trike hit my dimorphodon out of the air and killed him thus he died whats worse my only mount tuba the parasaur came out of nowhere and attacked the trike and he died with my poor dimorphodon the point is don't attack a trike with a dimorphodon otherwise the dimorphodon will be killed
One/\ up is one respect for heat seaker and tuba
I games my first one of these pretty early game, and she saved me so many times. I just made sure to up her movement speed, and she never had any problems with stegos or diplos or anything! It’s now nearly six months later, still have my original, and have literally about 27 of them. They constantly follow my tech quetzal, keeping her safe from any potential threats. They can take down and totally dismantle pretty much anything we come across instantly. One of my favorite tames for sure!
These guys may seem un kill able but they have a couple weakneses 1stegos they hit your birds out of the air 2packs of Dilophasaurus they spit acid at your bird and for some reason when he's hit he flys really low to the ground in circles one dilo can't hit him but two or more can
(i learned that the hard way) 3sarcos that snatch birds out of the air and if your on say a tapejara he will jump pull you of your tapejara and bring you with him
Up so others won't suffer the same loss I did poor dimo
How to run every caves, with ease, and loot every corps
1 get a couple of dimorphodons
2 breed them, to get high HP, DMG and moving speed ;
-dm and dmg for obvious reasons, ms for plenty reasons, but less obvious: as you're increasing the ms, you'd also increase the number of attacks per seconds, on multiple targets, but it would also force him to starve faster, and doing so, it would consume faster the mat he'd farmed, so it would simply allows him to recover faster
Note that you should set him on wandering agressive, and close (not closest, as it's gonna glitch on you) just close, so it would less glitch on the trees and caves walls
Never accidentally hit these guys,
If you hit one of these, a bunch more will com to attack you, they're strong for their size,
What makes them more dangerous is when your on a mount they focus on the rider, so they will attack you and finish you off, without you knowing,
And when tamed they make great shoulder pets,
And if you have a dozen and target them on something, they will shred it
