What are tips for pteranodon? Tips and strategies for pteranodon in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Bring narcoberries or narcotics or tranq arrows these things at a high level drop torpor rates pretty fast. Not Galllimimus fast but still pretty fast. BEWARE
Also if its your first time taming or flying one don’t fly in water no joke you come off your Ptera and are stuck in water you have to try calling for him and he will circle you it’s hard to get back on but possible
Ps sorry for assuming it’s a he if it offends you.

You know how the explorer notes for this looks like right? Well, I found the exact Pteranodon on the note and boy was I happy! It’s very cool to see your pt and other dinos on the notes that you find.
In ark mobile idk why but their torpor drops decently fast so bring a couple of narcotics and in multiplayer NEVER EVER BE OFFLINE WHILE TAMING A PTERANODON,IT WILL JUST WAKE UP AND WASTE ALL YOUR HARD EARN Resources,I learn this the very hard way.
Pteranodons are the top-recommended beginner’s flyer but all creatures have flaws— first of all the recommended stat points are put in its stamina— second they have only around 100-250 kilos they can carry. Including you and the saddle it’s about 1/3 or 1/2 it’s total weight. They are a pretty easy tame but it’s better to kill some type of small creatures so bugs can eventually spawn in.
If this was helpful enough make the button green and share it with friends! :D

It took 20 minutes of feeding it raw meat and jellyfish toxin but it was worth it! I, myself am on level 11 and now i have a level 36 pteranodon! It’s very easy to knock out all you need is a bola and a wooden club(Plus about 20 raw meat and like 10 jellyfish toxin)
Get a small flock of these (that’s the minimum for this) around 2 or 3 should do and attack any decent animal and just watch them shred them alive
Why on earth isn't the taming bar going up?????
The grassy area between the north zone 2 and the north zone 3, is full of pteranodons, sense it is a wide area, it is a great spawning place for large quantities of Dino's, just be careful, there have been many sightings of raptors roaming around- good luck.
These are incredibly fun to breed…
Track down and tame 3-5 high level Ptera and compare their stats….then breed them together until you have a super Ptera that has inherited its strongest ancestors stamina/weight/hp/melee…
On their own, they have pretty limited combat potential… but they become absolutely LETHAL in groups. If you’ve been breeding them you’ll likely have some expendable ones that you can take out hunting with you…
In ‘flocks’ of 5-10 they can demolish almost anything you set them on and their insane flight speed means their attacks are always perfectly coordinated (no getting stuck on slopes/rocks/trees).
Easiest way to get a high level pteranodon is to spawn on ragnarok in the highlands. Bola one and knock it out. Then take it with ovis which are commonly found near by.
Bola it on the legs it stops it from moving then club it until it’s unconscious then feed it lots of raw meat and narcotics
When you encounter this bird it is passive unless you take its egg. It's battle attacks are a spin attack and it does the most damage. The other one is a bite attack at it's not as effective. So when in battle do a spin attack to beat your foes.
If u find an egg DO NOT pick it up the eggs are white with small light blue spots if u pick it up a hoard of them will come and kill u because they are so strong P.S I learned this the hard way
