Tips & Strategies
If your're riding it in water, you can look down and spam the "take off" button to make it semi-submersible. If you dismaout underwater, though, the bird will float back up to the surface of the water

So no ones gonna mention that you can use a fishing rod on its back (apparently).
To the people who are annoyed about the fish diet, Pelagornis can float on the water and swim with you on it instead of getting dismounted forcefully like any other flier. They can murder fish that way if you have a few minutes of your time and a good, lively pond or river.
Mine was killed by a Xiph (Ark Additions creature, mod) and she was the best otherwise.. thank you for reading and Midnight also thanks you for taking another one like her! ðŠķ
This bird restore stamina very fast when in water up to let the others see this
The Pelagornis can get a lot of Organic Polymer from penguins.
Only eats fish, don't forget that
Since patch 2.25 released April 8th they now reduce the weight of polymer by 80% when in the Pelagornis and they harvest it 30% more now
Hate that you fall off of your pteranodon if you hit water? Not only do you stay on your pelagornis, but it lands on top of the water! Better yet it will swim!
I'm so bored that I bred and max imprinted this birdies and they don't dissappoint. It can carry and harvest too much polymer I built storages dedicated only for organic poly because of this guy. It's slow and low on weight but they have reduction on organic poly, but they have a mid stamina and HP and they don't dismount you on waters. I have 6 of this max imprinted guys that I used for organic poly and penguin party and now I never run out of organic poly. If you ever tame one, get another two or three. You can use em mid game for transport along with 2 argies.
I think it needs to be addressed that these birds are excellent at killing jellyfish. Their increase attack works on them. You one shot them.
Single player uses:
1. Early game travel mount: Pelagornis is slightly slower than pteranodon and has equally bad weight and stamina, but since it can swim you won't immediately get dismounted if it force lands you into the water.
2. Free organic polymer: Pelagornis has the best gathering rate for organic polymer of any dino, set one to aggressive in a cage with mating penguins and air conditioners.
