ARK: Survival Evolved & Ascended Companion
Tips & Strategies
This is a super easy method to tame them without the net projectiles. I tamed this guy on fjordur on asgard they spawn all around the realm. So you will need a trap that was designed by captain fatdog (you can find it on youtube, he also has a lot of other good traps. You dont need darts you can knock them out easily with a prim crossbow. So for the trap you will also need a rare flower to lure the maewing in because it will run away if you attack it. You can also kibble tame it easily when you are between early and mid game because it needs basic kibble wich can be made with dodo eggs so just tame bunch of female dodos and one male and let em mate because you are gonna get eggs that way faster. For the saddle engram you need to click on the genesis 2 icon on the top right to show gen 2 engrams and its on level 19 so it can be obtained very early. IMPORTANT: I found it easily on asgard because I have cave flying enabled so I could go with my ptera around, Desmodus is the only flyer that can fly in caves normaly but taming one isnt easy like taming a maewing so you would need a good land mount there. Your other option is going into the redwoods on the northeast of the regular map (midgard) but going into redwoods without a good pump is basically suicide because thylas exist there and are waiting for you.

These guys seem useless at first, but are great tames! They’re found on two maps, in one biome for each map. They’re found on gen 2 and lost island, eden biome on gen 2 and on lost island, the grass platoi areas.
They lay eggs of different qualities, from basic to exceptional! This allows for great and easy taming! They are also the first genderless BUT breed-able creatures, thus being extremely unique! They are mammals, thus they breed with a gestation period after the breeding! They are great tames and can be used for many things! They are the fastest creature you can get on lost island, making it easy to get wyvern eggs if the wyverns are distracted! The taming is pretty simple thankfully! Best way to tame them, is by netting them and then building a trap around them, then nocking them out. They’re saddle is easy to craft and unlocked early, thus this can be a very good early tame! To end this of, I’d like to tell you all that this creature is based of a flying squirrel and a platypus! For now, hope your ride with the colony ship stays steady! And remember! Keep surviving! And for one of these touching on the other genesis creatures, just let me know, by taking this to ten ups!
Thanks for reading, survivors!
I spent an hour looking for them on ground in the red woods but I didnt realize they mostly spawn in the water so bring your snow owl to find the most and check the lakes.
It’s a knockout tame and can be fed meat to tame but after tame its a omnivore
Ps I know this info is going to be out in a few days but for now it’s not
Knock out tame.
Eats berries or meat to tame
You got a solid 7 seconds before they enter the stratosphere so shoot fast
A 130 level took three tranq darts. It ko'd underwater but does not have oxygen so will survive. Feed mutton for quick tame!
Tamed a 116 and it only took about 5 tranqs
I had forgotten that they spawn in Asgard,this is so people don’t suffer by going into the redwood’s.
These are found on fjordur. My husband and I found one in the redwoods
I think they might be omnivores.
