If you hate when your flyer dismounts becuase of it in water well this will fix it it can land and float on water and it doesn't dismount you at all very useful for pvp if your about to go underwater. Becuase a giant squid I cant spell the squids name tho anyways.

Other than the astrocetus and astrodelphis it’s the only flyer that can land on water

Sincerely Tek_Reaper

Pelagornis deals nore damage to fishes than other land or sky creature

It’s a very underestimated flying tame. What makes it so good is its ability to harvest polymer and it can land in water. It’s like a hespioronis and pt mixed. The only downsides are its saddle comes after the pt at level 43 and it only eats fish. Also when I tried to bola it, it didn’t work so I just knocked it out with a bat

Do not let it into a fight, if attacked (while on neutral) will fly in circles

not only do they swim, they can swim sideways!

They one shot jellyfish. And swim faster then meglodon

The ONLY bird that doesn't disnount on contact with water.

If your doing trips over the ocean this guy is very useful since he can land on water, they can also fit through ver small gaps, i used a pelegornis to escape several angry Crystal wyven heirs by squeezing into a tight space where they could not follow

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.

U need a lots of organic polymer? tame this and go to snow, btw in Mobile pelagornis is best gatherer for organic polymer than bear.

I think they are better than the pteranodon because of their ability to float on water instead of dismounting

When you hit water. Not only that they do three times damage to fish and are perfect for lake bases or boat bases

Pelagornis have a bonus when harvesting organic polymer from BABY kairuku.

Very useful for gathering BIOTOXIN. You can kite Cnidaria (jellyfish) to the surface and then use this guy to kill and harvest them without getting stung. Works like a charm

Gathers more organic polymer, than a club does not dismount you on contact with water regain stamina twice as fast in water versus on land on mobile it does not have a weight reduction on organic polymer

Started a new game with Ascended and got disgusted by all the low level Pteranodon everywhere after looking for decent level ones for days so I settled for a Pelagornis in the meantime… Not a bad bird at all!

When I tamed mine it was a mid-ish level and the stats weren’t the absolute best but it served its purpose well with grabbing a few chief resources I needed and with general scouting on the island. I pumped mainly health, stamina, weight and melee into mine and it’s working out so far so good. It’s alright for fighting off smaller creatures but usually I try to gtfo before it gets too hairy so the bird doesn’t get killed. It’s handy that it can fly, walk on land and swim. It recovers stamina even while moving in the water so it’s nice to constantly be moving whereas you have to find a safe spot to land and rest with other bird mounts. Insta-kills fish like piranhas which is helpful! But please don’t try to fight Megalodon with it, it might not end well lol.

All in all, it’s definitely helpful when you’re starting out. Knocking them out is not the hard part; just simply bola it and tranq it. The hardest part is having enough narcotics to make sure it stays down while you tame it. Prime fish meat and kibble works best and lessens the amount of narcotics to use.

I’ll be content with using this animal until I upgrade to an Argy at some point. It’s a decent substitute for a Pteranodon but it’s not as fast as one and I don’t think it packs a punch with melee all that well.

Hope this helps. Happy taming and good luck everyone!

They're great at clearing out pirhana infested waters, since pirhanas will go right up to it but then make a quick 180 when they realize what you're riding, and you kill them in one shot. Great for clearing out swamps, just be mindful of all the other monsters there, especially kapro's

To the people that says it has not much use it has quite a bit of use aside from fishing. Mine is level 85 and it's been helping me for ages. Their base stats are much better than argys and Pteranodons besides attack which you can upgrade.

This is one of my favorite birds partially because it's a big Duck and also it's really useful for polymer and fish meat.

Silly Survivor

These are actually quite good they are slower than pt but still quite fast. They gave decent stamina and do extra dmg against small fishes. They can float on water and can be used as mobile fishing seat. They harvest organic polymer, AND guess what, they regain stamina on water! Try it out. If you can tame a high level one of these, tame one! Equals ptera in multiple aspects, and even surpasses it in some aspects. It’s saddle is also just a bit higher level. Great first flyer before argy
