Make sure yours has good stamina or stop frequently because they will kick you off if they don’t get rest to regain some stamina, I was just kicked off of mine when exploring had to go into creative to get back on it
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.
Player-written tips for taming, using, and fighting the Pteranodon in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
I tamed a pteranodon (level 27) I don’t get it how people hate the pteranodon and it’s one of the top 10 flyers of ARK and it doesn’t matter if it has Low stamina it’s still good .
The pteranodon is a great starter flyer, however the weight kinda sucks compared to a argentavis so I’d recommend getting the argy soon later! Pls up this so beginners will see.
I see a lot of people’s pteras dying because they didn’t follow their owners when they whistled follow in a battle. I just wanted to say they will keep attacking if they are on attack target or neutral, so you have to whistle passive then follow. It may be risky, but…
I see a lot of people’s pteras dying because they didn’t follow their owners when they whistled follow in a battle. I just wanted to say they will keep attacking if they are on attack target or neutral, so you have to whistle passive then follow. It may be risky, but sometimes it’s your best hope.
I just realized at least get 30 raw fish meat and give it to it I tamed it in five seconds without narcotics! LOL!
This about about keeping the ptera down when you nock it.
USE BIO TOXIN!
This stuff is so useful and is an easy harvest just stand on the shore and use a bow and arrow to kill the jellies.
This stuff has +80 torpor so it doubles narcotics.
They are very helpful to get arownd on and they are pretty fast so I would recommend getting this as you're first flying time I hope you find this helpful.
This is for the real noobs like me you can tame one under lvl20 with just 1 simple kibble so take your bola throw it and knock them out with the wooden club and put 1 simple kibble in them
These can be tamed with raw meat. Not sure why it's missing. Important info for new players
I have a question How I feed baby with an egg to print it?
Just bola it and keep shooting it with tranqu arrows and feed it raw prime fish meat
Make sure to starve tame, I knocked out lvl 150, left to my boat to get kibble and turned around to find a pack of allosaurus emerge from the woods gnawing on it. So I didn't lose anything except for some arrows .
If ya want to get one, then just get a bola, look for a lvl 55<, and bola it. Should take about 7 or so headshots, then get the meats ready. Afterwards, it's a very very good mount to use for a beginner, but they are also very easily lost. Good luck, keep flying!!
If you use kibble make sure to bring extra made make sure to keep a eye on it
Do not under any circumstances let your friend persuade you to take on a spino or anything else big that is in the water. Trust me I know it does not end well for you.
If you tame a low level strap c4 to it and suicide bomb
Be careful barrel rolling into Rex's or alphas. I got stuck in ones body and couldn't escape. It killed my 145 tame Petra. Then me.
Mostly just a starter flier, but still useful at higher lvls. They are fast and, with enough health and damage, can be good fighters with their barrel rolling(which also harvests from your kills great). My kibble tamed at lvl 150 had 360% damage when I got it so it can take…
Mostly just a starter flier, but still useful at higher lvls. They are fast and, with enough health and damage, can be good fighters with their barrel rolling(which also harvests from your kills great). My kibble tamed at lvl 150 had 360% damage when I got it so it can take down almost anything with enough barrel rolls and patience. Just watch their stamina
So watch the stamina when flying land before low or will go unconscious. I've lost two of them already. They are still alive I just can't find them. Any help
Hands down one of my favorite dinos. As a travel mount its best to lvl speed and stamina mostly speed. As a battle mount lvl health melee and stamina. A pair of high lvl (170+) freshly tamed make for great mates. When they hit 200 breed and continue. U will have the most…
Hands down one of my favorite dinos. As a travel mount its best to lvl speed and stamina mostly speed. As a battle mount lvl health melee and stamina. A pair of high lvl (170+) freshly tamed make for great mates. When they hit 200 breed and continue. U will have the most vicious battle mount with incredible speed. Mine is at roughly 12,300 health 3000 stam 900 weight and 560% melee and 300%speed lvl 267 and still upgrading.
