Tips & Strategies

What are tips for pteranodon? Tips and strategies for pteranodon in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Literally all you need to do is bola- then tranq it out or hit it with a club or something u will need narcotics btw
Not recommended against gigas. The spyglass barrel roll strategy (more info in the popular tips that were a great help to me btw) works well but with one fatal flaw: It's a TWO-WAY damage amplifier. Meaning the giga's attack, If it lands on you, deals much more damage than normal as well. Meaning one hit on a 1500 health ptera with journeyman saddle left my ptera with less than 500 health. So, yeah. Too much risk involved. Good for rexes and maybe alphas but not gigas. I would advise combing the allos strategy with the ptera roll. Let the allos bleed the gigs down first before going for the kill with the ptera. Also compensates for the annoying fact that if the giga dies to allo bleeding it might not give xp. Needs testing but i think it'll work.
For mobile users, You will need narcoberries or narcotics! I tried taking a patera as my first tame, I had to use loads of narcoberries to keep it unconscious..
Chuck a bola at it while it’s on the ground and punch it in the face until it’s knocked out then just feed it two dodo kibble and boom you got a pteranodon.Get to level 38 and get the saddle.
A low level one (>50) can usually be knocked out with one tranq arrow from a crossbow, but bola it beforehand just incase it needs 2!
We should increase speed stamina and weight of ptreadon
I use pt for everything even when I’m given better flying options I still use a pt always my first tame if I’m able to tame it easy saddle, fast, and is on almost every map. easy knock out tame throw a bola at it then knock it out with club, slingshot, bow, crossbow whatever. feed prime meat if ur early game, Prioritise leveling up weight and stamina. Boom theres ur pt easily dies and takes forever to level up its weight but it’s fast and great for early game pvp/pve
Always bring narcotics don’t listen to the info tab!!
First find the one u want wait till it's flying low or landed and bolo it take very few narcotics arrows to knock out if u hit in the head then defend and and feed whatever kind of meat u would like or dodo kibble for the best and fastest tame.
On pc it’s 1 trank to the tip of the head with crossbow
I put the food in the inventory but it don’t eat someone pls help
This is an easy tame to get, spawn in the highlands, tame a equus, bola a pteranodon and kick it in the face until it knocks out.
Start a dodo farm and grow rockcarrot to make kibble it takes time but is worth it completely go for high lvl as low levels aren't really worth it
With a adecent bow and tranq arrows one hit knockout
Go to RAG and tame an equus, then search for a high lvl pteranodon, bola it, then knock it out with equus. While the PT is starving out go find a Ovis and get some mutton. I tame lvl 140-150 PT every time within 20-30min. Its a great run, you can also do the same technique on Valuegro. just spawn near the FARM grab some rockarrots and tame a equus. there are TONS of PTs on Valuegro.
I knocked out my bird with only 1 trank arrow then I also tamed him with no narcotic I used dodo kibble (I'm still level 37 send help)I'm also sad because I'm in legit the eye of the storm .the only way to explore and get better tames in to fly out .Barry's are starting to spawn in my water so I cant even get out using a raft. a theri even spawned in the back on my island so I'm terrified of going back there where ALL the wood is! I'm saying this cuz Ark doesn't wanna give you the advantage of the sky Level up stamp and watch the weight.I also recommend to bola it before you to to snipe it mid-air.Their barrel roll attack can be used to get prime meat pretty well.(I know cuz on my other server I have a flyable one.)Please up-Vote!🦖💕
Pteranodon Taming Guide for beginners! Or if you are just bad a ark!
1st, Bola it.
2nd, hit the Pteranodon in the face with a wooden club, but make sure to space out the club hits so you don't hit the Pteranodon when it is already unconscious.
3rd, place narcoberry's in the Pteranodon's inventory, if you don't know, narcoberrys keeps creatures asleep just like narcotics do.
4th, place meat in the Pteranodon's inventory, the Pteranodon will tane faster if you use raw prime meat or mutton, but regular raw meat will work too.
5th and final step, just wait, and force feed narcoberrys when the Pteranodon's torpidity gets low.
There you have it, a Pteranodon! I hope this will help! Bye!!
This is for new players of the ARK, 1 make a bola, 2 make a new club, 3 get meat, prime meat, fish meat or prime fish meat 4 find a pteranodon that you like, 5 throw a bola at it, 6 hit it lots of times with the club (I recoded hitting it in the head), keep hitting it until it is knocked out, 7 feed it the food from step 3, 8 wait for the pteranodon to be tamed (make sure Dino hunger is on and make sure to keep its torpidity up without killing it), 9 once tamed get to level 38 and craft a pteranodon saddle and equip it to the pteranodon then fly away also check your wait because they are bad at holding heavy stuff. If you read this far than thanks.
