What are tips for ichthyornis? Tips and strategies for ichthyornis in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
This creature, the Ichthyornis, will only be aggressive towards you when you are in its way. It must have space to fish. Otherwise, it may usurp your items. When they circle over a spot in the water, do not swim there.
They just assasinate dodos. Tamed or not.
When I was a noob I died to these several times
if on the beach always look up to the sky every few seconds to ensure your lvl 180 wyvern egg doesnt go byebye
Bola it and don't use an mastercraft bow with high melee damage use tranqu darts and a long-neck
Never a good idea to tame these guys without a bola, they are pegomastix with wings and once they take food they eat it by the stack. If your weapon dissapears from your hands it is on the ground.
Pegos are at least cute. These things are just bastards.
If u have good aim with em use a slingshot to knock 1 out the sky trust me it’s ez and fun they sometimes run into rocks remember get close to it and fire those rocks!
Similar to the pego, these guys are also assholes. Especially when you're taming and they steal food out of your tames inventory and reset the tame process. Major assholes.
is this the most annoying creature?
Tamed one, level 85 on Genesis. The regular kibble was giving about 8-9% each feed. Supposedly the 2x evo event was active aswell.
If you see one that you want to tame walking around on land, throw a tent on top of it, and get your bola ready. It can help keep them trapped. However they can escape if you're not quick enough with the bola, also they can destroy the tent if they start to attack it. I've tamed them many times this way, so it can be done.
I tamed one of these and then while it was on my shoulder I died and it flew off and now I can’t find it. Upvot e if you have had a similar experience or if you know where they fly off to
If you encounter a swarm of these, all hope is lost. Just soent twenty minutes being chased accross the map by these bastards just to be killed by a Raptor. *heavy sigh*
Just wait and time it and then attack with your parasaur.
Stupid thing took my lvl 150 fertilised megalania egg
They take reduced damage when flying. It’s best to bola them and then kill them.
Bola it, then use a slingshot to body shot it. Don't head shot it; it'll die within 5 hit of the slingshot. I used a crossbow and two headshots and dead. Use fists, sling, or boomerang to knock it out. Good luck, 2 2.5x Coels should suffice for the taming.
