What are tips for pteranodon? Tips and strategies for pteranodon in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
It took me five narcotics to tame a level five pterodactyl
I'm very lost can some one explain what the 3minute interval means cuz if you don't put food in the taming effective mess will drop.
Use a bola to make the dino trapped for a few seconds so you can knock or tranc it out
If you hit one while on an itchy they will still aggro and so will all others in the area (on mobile) so try to tame one thats alone and not around any, I know from personal experience
Idk how to get these things to just stay unconscious
Don’t worry about kibble, just bring some prime meat and you’re good to go!
You got me to call me when you
It is good for the trech better than a argy but don't get caught
So I have like five of these and I thought it be helpful for you to know that I tame them all on fish not me meat
LITERALLY I WAS TRYING TO BOLA ONE AND I WAS FOLLOWING IT AND IT LEAD ME RIGHT TO A THERI. I nearly escaped the tickle chicken

Some info-
Let's face it, they're the first flyer you tamed. High levels are the best to tame, as their stamina stat is trash and you can use the highest level of stamina you can get without leveling up. Might (or might not) be replaced by an Argy or Griffin (for fancy people).
Taming-
Super easy tames, a simple bola and tranq. Because of their tiny health pool I'd recommend tranq arrows and not a club or slingshot because, chances are, you'll just kill it before you knock it out. If you find a max level try to use kibble of raw prime, but normal meat works just as well. Even the lowest levels need a few narcotics, so bring some along no matter what level you're going after.
Saddling and stats-
Saddle requires fibre and hide (I think) as well as 75 keratin. Make sure to get the keratin before you can unlock the saddle. I know from personal experience that it sucks to unlock the saddle just to wait 10 in-game days for a turtle to spawn -_-
As for stats, they aren't too good. Low heath and stamina, although I personally only put points in stamina.
Hope this helped at least one person. If you liked or found this helpful, share it with friends!

A lot of people say these are mainly early game fliers, but I do not agree. I bred and imprinted one and levelled up its hp and melee. Now it has 8K hp and does 1K damage per barrel roll. Found a lvl 100 giga but I wanted a better one, so I took out my pteranodon and barrel rolled into its tail repeatedly. After a few minutes it’s dead. It managed to bite me a grand total of 7 times while I hit it ~80 times. Since I had an ascendent saddle it only did ~3k damage (most of these came from bleed) with those 7 bites. Imo the pteranodon’s barrel makes it the strongest flying battle mount in the game by far.
It can fly hi and I hav jejshdhdjs
This is actually so simple get 4 prime meat craft a bola capture it with the bola then punch it till it’s unconscious feed it soothing balm and then they should eat about 2 prime meat and there you are u have a flyer! Just did it
