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 used mine to get obsidian from the mountains (he had 250 base Weight) but one morning I went there and got mobbed by 3 level 120 griffins and 1 level 50 scorpion and a low level giga I tried to save my Dino knowing that I could come back with my 15 sabers but NOPE. 1 like…

HARVESTING TIP! Tame a few of these. 3 at least if you don't want them to die by an argentavis. Upgrade their weight tolerance and use them to cargo wood and stone to the base you're building. I did this in singleplayer when I was making a base on the volcano. Be sure…

If you have a pte, you should level it on stamina and weight. If you think those are good then you should level the pte on meleedamage and than it is a beast

Despite the wiki saying Ptrandon cannot fit through a doorframe, they actually can fit through a open door while flying. Don’t use open doorframes to trap one unless you want a big chance of your Ptrandon escaping.

This is good for two player ice cave runs with good stamina and health

As with any flier, land with about half stamina, so you can fly away from any ground threats you might encounter

When saddle jacked DO NOT pike pterandon instead the use a Bola (ensnare tame) or club (k.o's rider).

Use a bola and shoot it with atleast 2 tranqs. Be sure to space out your shots so you don’t kill it or hit it an extra time. :) Always go for high levels. Low levels are garbage.

Use trag arrows to shoot down the pteranodon then use soothing blam and use 4 raw meat then you get him/her

These things can be way helpful for gathering wyvern eggs! Just get it to level 150+ putting all points into stamina/weight. Find where the wyvern eggs spawn and fly next to one and take it. But let the Ptera regain stamina first. Then fly out and kite any wyvern following…

When your taming, check the stats by putting them in your dodex comparison calculator. If you have a stat that is above average, try putting a note in that bird with its level and stats so that you can keep track of what your breeding your birds with.

Breed them and make a bird cage.
