What are tips for pelagornis? Tips and strategies for pelagornis in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Love these Guys. Currently playing Solo on the Lost Island. Had a lvl 60 pterodactyl and ditched it for the Seagull. Great for traveling across great expanses of water as you can rest between flying by landing on water or you can swim fast in water. Also what I like to do to level it up or kill OP dinos is lure the Enemy Dino into water where it's deep enough, so the attacking Dino's head is the only thing visible and then spam the attack button on Seagull until the Enemy Dino is dead. Works like a charm. Have killed Raptors, Paracers, Daedons, Trikes & Terror Birds so far with this method with my Seagull being a much lower level than attacking Dinos. Also, level up the weight on these things. Definitely better than the Pterodactyl IMO. Better weight and health per level.
It still prefers compy kibble too if you have chef tables for mobile
They found by the beach and also when I was walking around the beach, I saw one and I got attacked by a shark
It is found near at the end of herbivore island
If you're on mobile and plan to tame a high level i recommend having a 10x soothing blam on you for a quick tame (obtained by watching ads (pretty rare) buying it with amber or doing some tributes with easy to get artifacts)
I saw one and wanted to tame it but i realized it only took fish meat so please have your narcotics and fish meat ready
Herbivore island is a safe spot to tame one of these. First, wait for one to land or fly over the surface. Then, bola it to keep it grounded. Then use a tranq bow or crossbow to knock it. Since herbivore island has a nice, relatively safe cove, you can get some fish meat from there so long as no mantas or megalodon, and feed it to pelagornis. Once tamed, you’ll need a saddle for a similar material cost of the Pteranodon’s, but Pelagornis is much better in some cases. It can swim on the surface of water, and still retains agility compared to flyers like the griffin or argent.
This is an absolute MUST HAVE! I had a pteranodon that died of starvation sadly, but after i've tamed a Pelagornis only then did i find out how much better they are. Easy to tame, fun to ride and all together an amazing flying dino. A good thing with these is that you can go onto water with them which makes them extra useful.
If ur high level, tame a tapejara. From a tape u can use rare flower to lure the pelagornis on land and then bola it out of the air. Tamed multiple high lvs using this method (named them Horizon, Distant, and Sunset)
