Pteranodon

The pteranodon is a fast and versatile flying mount useful for traveling and scouting, though not always the ideal choice for battle. Knocking a pteranodon out doesn't take much, but can still be a challenge since it will immediately flee after being attacked. Once knocked out, taming is quite easy in comparison to other creatures, and with its low saddle requirements, this makes it an especially popular creature for newer survivors while still being versatile enough for more experienced survivors. What the pteranodon lacks in stamina, weight, and health, it makes up with its speed.

So in my experience their torpor runs down quick so once u have knocked it out u definitely need narcotics. I recommend bio toxin cause it easy to get and it didn’t drain the health like it says. All u need to do to get bio toxin is lure jelly fish to the shore and shoot them…

Is it just me who thought these guys were herbivores? I’ve never actually seen them attack anything, and they’re really chill.

When fighting someone on a pteranodon, 1 bola can take him out of the battle. No matter the level.

Bolas Are A Bit Messed Up Right Now, so Bring more than you will need. Also bring more narcotics and kibble than the the calculator tell you to, just incase it is slightly wrong ;)

‘Sigh’ When I tamed my first I made a mistake. I accidentally walked into it’s wing while it was still unconscious and I got glitched. I couldn’t move nor could I crouch. Nothing. I died. Yeah I killed myself. So just a reminder DO NOT walk into their wings when they…

If you're a beginner, I suggest using a bola, club and narcotic. That's how I tamed mine.

Tame a level 100+ and you got yourself a bird that can kill alphas. (As long as you get the melee damage high)

What till a double Xp and taming weekend and get more levels due to efficiency,on a 150 it would be the same as a gen2 breed bird.

For people who say that this little flyer wont attack you if you take its egg, it WILL attack you if you take its egg AS LONG AS YOU ARE NEAR THE DINO. Your welcome!

If y’all’s are taking forever to tame it might be because you have Dino food drain low (this is ultimate mobile edition btw) DINO FOOD DRAIN EFFECTS WILD DINOS TOO NOT JUST YOUR TAMES TURN IT UP TO MAKE THEM HUNGRY FASTER

Stick to the beaches in the southern zones for easy find and easy tame without much predators to attack you

They only attack when you eat their egg
