The nurf for them made them way worse, u can only do a certain amount of jumps and boosts, which is kinda upsetting...

Can’t damage stone

They can be picked up by Quetzals.

Pump everything into Stam. Gives you a few launches upwards but only ever 1 warp speed move until you touch the ground again. Does NOT take fall damage. Updog so others can see

To whoever is at the top, would you rather everyone has a 450 fully imprinted mana than can jump 76 god danged times before landing?!

Wild: the Managarmar is one speedy boi, if he torpor runs and your out in the open, he's as good as gone. These guys also tend to run around so much, + they jump. They're very painful to tame but once you do you have a speedy boi.

Tamed: even if after the nerf update, these guys are still SO good,

Even at 250 damage, it's ice breath can melt stuff if your close to what your tryna kill, cause the closer your ice breath is, the more damage It gives. It has 3 jumps (originally infinite) that can clear most high canyons, it can dash midair, and if you fall with no stamina, these guys don't take fall dmg which is so good,

Bugs: have you ever realized your managarmar was gone after taking a heavy beating? Like you return to the main menu, and when you come back, he's gone. Well that's what happened to me, you see these guys like I said earlier are super jumpy, so if he was on aggressive, neutral, or attack my target? There's a chance that they just go away lol, but you can find them at these places, Your base (dino leash) cause that's where I found mine, it went home lol, Above where it vanished (it can be just floating up there) or he's just under the floor never to be found again

Ever played genji in overwatch? Good.

It can fly in the air and swim in the water

Bring to other maps with water and swim it is a great swimmer

Upgrading movement speed will allow it to dash for longer periods of time.

They can jump

They can glide

Wait...

They can swim???

To maximize your distance traveled. Jump, then use your hyper boost, make sure u land on ground repeat. Jumping from ground only consumes 80 stam. Jumping in air takes 200. Will suck u dry real fast.

Ok these things are the fastest creature in ark when mounted by a human. They are great for supply runs, and just generally excellent during events. Christmas event? Can easily get supply drops. Thanksgiving or Halloween events? Can easily fly around the map at light speed and find limited time dinos. They also have less damage reduction with their freeze breath on super turkeys. They are fabulous on every map, and I have found them useful getting around th eclipse of Valguero.

Net Projectiles work on manas along side the quetzal and wyverns but they dont work on rexes and gigas

Very mobile, can jump as many times as you have stamina for. (Jump high, dash forward.)

Also has a Ice-Ray. (Extremely stamina costly.)

I had to search multiple times for the controls of this thing on console and I finaly found it. X to jump, foward, left, or right while junping to move shortly. R2 while in air for massive boost. Hold L2 for Ice beam, if you jump and use ice beam on the ground you hover but move backwards. On the ground, R2 is melee attack. L3 is sprint. Hope this helps!

These Creatures can only jump 3 times and a dash (Left Click, R2 or Right Trigger in mid-air) will not count as one. Thei ability to glide in mid-air while freezing their target proves useful to tribes. Like most mammals they have a gestation period which means you dont have to perfect a temperature to breed them. Level pure stam and Health. (The closer you are to the target while freezing it the more damage)

On evolved at least, they recover stamina faster unmounted.

For pve players, yes the nerf changed them completely however they are still very good in my opinion. A leveled up imprinted from 150 wild parents is way faster than wyverns. And if you are playing slightly boosted servers and you’re lucky enough to get your hands a 755 longneck with shocking darts, it only takes a few shots and I didn’t have to trap him at all

Good mobility, but hampered by lackluster stamina and stamina regen, which it burns through extremely fast
