What are tips for pteranodon? Tips and strategies for pteranodon in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
150 ptera can easily become another friend from your dino family, just use a crossbow (or a bow,but you will need a bola.) in it's head, it will sleep with 1 shoot, feed with meat, recommended a soothing balm(bad at english,I'm actually from Ecua),Prime Meat or Dodo kibble
Once tamed, enjoy your ptera (mobile tip)
It's my first time sending a tip*
Learned this trick while taming this flyer (ARK Mobile):
Get a sleeping bag
K.O a dino
Grab A sleeping bag
Grab a clock (optional)
Sleep (dont forget to grab some sleepy drugs)
Wake up to a brand new tame
When you encounter it do this:
1. Bola it
2. Beat it up with a wooden club until it's unconscious
3. Feed it prime meat (Get prime meat from baby dinos)
4. Wait till it's tamed
5. Now you have a pteradon!
6: Give it a saddle

This tame is useful because it’s a flyer. I personally tame a pteranodon so I can go and bait another flyer that is bigger into a trap. (Griffin, Argentavis, etc.) They are very easy tames to get, usually the second tame I get with only something like a Parasaur beforehand. They can be helpful to scout and go around the map quick as they are fast flyers. I usually use my first one to setup a base in a far away/ hard to get to location. Overall, Pteranodons are vey easy games to get and very important assist for you at the beginning of your adventure.
Tip: If you just tamed one, NEVER take the water route! # R.I.P Pterry, who lasted 5 minutes. 😫
So I know it is kinda hard to get it so I will tell you so you need a bola to trap it shoot it with tranq arrows (or your first) then let it's hunger go low to where you can get it and build something around it so nothing will kill it so you need to be level 38 to get it so kill turtles you need 75 and some hide so grind them up and you need narcoticis so you will let the hunger go down and upgrade speed and stamina so it will last longer and go faster and upgrade it's weight yo hold iron to make stuff (I hope this helped you get your frist flying tame.
I get one at level 9 - 10 just get a bola and a club, bola it and bash its head with the bet, simple.
Whoever said that prime meat does half of the game thank you so much it’s been so much help
I had one named johny. I was flying up a cliff with him,and we just made it up with no stamina to spare. Sadly there was a giga who killed him and me.RIP jonhy.
Hit with a Bola, tap it in the face with some darts and keep a parasaur with you to scan for enemies.
When the pteranodon is knocked out bring LOTS of narcotics and if you run out use bio toxin narcoberrys do jack also you know bring extra food for it and a saddle if you can
Due to the update the pteranodon has a default of 135% movement and very little stamina make sure to watch the stamina bar precisely when flying one!
I tamed one of these by walking up to it, and shooting it with a slingshot when I was level ten. (It was a level 1). I was so disappointed when I learned the saddle is at level 38. This is my second account, and I think if you can knock it out with a slingshot, the saddle shouldn’t be at level 38.
I just tamed a 150 of these, not the best tame but it has good colors. Now I use it to kill rexes, spinos, etc. just barrel roll and it does huge damage. I wish it was on mobile (on mobile you do huge damage when you open your spyglass) but I’m excited to tame a giga with my pt tomorrow. Wish me luck!
To tame a pt, you must knock it out. Pteranodons are fast so bolas are needed. The knock-out weapon that works best is tranq arrows, or a club if it’s a low level. (Forgot to mention taming food for the dodo message) The pt will eat meat and its favorite kibble is regular.
