Tips & Strategies
Great early flyer. I prefer them over the pterodactyl honestly. They can land on water and are great for scouting if you upgrade speed a bit. They were also the first dinos in my first ASA game that started showing up with cool color variations, which is one of my favorite parts of the game!

It can eat cooked fish meat up this is it can be fixed
Who thinks this should get a tlc. Maybe like a barrel roll that 3x damage into water like pt, then comes up for breathing. Would help starters kill alpha megs.
Great begginer flyer and great way to get to herb island i use it as a boat on the water please ⏫️ up
Here's my idea for a Pelagornis TLC
General Improvements (making it actually useful)
-Increase it's size and CW
-Increase it's base stamina to 200-220ish
-Increase it's speed to 1600-1700ish
-Increase it's base weight stat to 200ish
-Decrease it's saddle unlock level to 40
This is to make it more of an early game tradeoff with the Pteranodon between speed and weight-bearing capacity/stamina
Specialized Improvements (keeping it actually useful later on)
Option 1:
Focus on the polymer gathering aspect
-Increase it's organic polymer harvest rate
-Have it's inventory act as a "polymer fridge" which slows down the decomposition or stops it entirely
Option 2:
Focus on the "sea flyer" aspect
-Make it able to dive underwater and increase it's swim speed, but have a somewhat poor oxygen stat
-Give it an option to hold small creatures (up to the weight of icthyosaurus, thus the aforementioned size increase is necessary) in it's beak
-Sea creatures held in Pelagornis' beak that would usually die when taken out of the water will survive just fine
-It can pickup and hold creatures even while landing
-Instead of using it as a chair to fish with a rod, you can do the fishing minigame straight with the pelagornis by placing the bait in it's inventory, the fish will be drawn towards it's beak and once caught you can either use attack 1 to get the loot or attack 2 to hold the fish
That are usefall as you can use on water and is very good past lvl 100
this thing should become more semi-aquatic and have its saddle learned before ptera's since its kinda smol
A pelagronis can rest in water. But float.
I DO NOT CARE if they are kinda bad. I LOVE THEM. I recommend everyone should tame one and then just have it as a house pet.
I think they are good they can swim on water unlike other flyers
