Breed breed breed
I try to tame them with dodo kibble but it won't work.
There needs to be a tame rate modifier
Are great for speed but rg are better fo weight
Spike walls don't protect it use fence foundations to build a three high wall around it or allow will make mince meat out of your tame
When you are trying to get a ptery. Make sure you can be next to the bird for the amount of time it will take to tame. Make sure you have kibble or it will take to long. Then put spike walls around you for safety and bring food for yourself. You should be fine, GOOD LUCK
Tame a ptera as soon as possible!!
Awesome early flyer to get with dodo kibble if you start getting veggies from early on. Can be very easy to get.
Bola the pteranodon before you tranq it.
What I found helpful for if your just starting out look for a level 5 and use a bow not a crossbow b/c a crossbow has a slower reload time. And if you have tribe members online ask them to help, but make sure to change the tribe setting and your tribe member could help. If you are playing on solo just start small with a level 5.
Best way to find and KO one of these bad boys is to take your self and your spy glass down the river they like hangout out there.
Get your self a bola or two with a cross bow and some tranqz.
If you want you can put some wooden spikes around him/her once KOd
Always make sure it's worth to tame a pteranodon by punching in its stats on the Dododex caculator and see whether it wasted points and what you need to put points to like health stamina etc
Try and team up with someone else to knock out the pteranodon.
BE CAREFUL picking up stray pteranodon eggs! If you manage to agro a group of pteras, they can do a lot of damage really quick. If you do this, find a base with plant species X and hide near those.
I'm going to tame one level 2 male ptereadon tame by bola fead meat and boio toxin or anting that torpor and wait
And by the way nock out
If you don’t have a good source of prime meat try to kill sabertooths Salmons is in small rivers or oceans if you have an aquatic creature to get prime fish it will not be as effective but still faster and taming effectiveness will be higher Just don’t do what I did and feed them fish meat I didn’t know that raw meat was more effective I just saw thought since it was a bird it would eat fish so don’t be like me 👍
When taming a pteranodon you need narcotics, if you don’t it’s gonna leave half way, I also recommend making dodo kibble since it’s usually easy to make and it’s the easiest way to tame them. Also if you don’t have that use prime meat, but if you don’t have that use the regular meat, since there torpor is low I recommend feeding them narco berries or narcotics so then you can take them fully without them flying away. If you need to tame them, bola them, then tranq, or slingshot, or hit them to knock it out, then you put everything in.
So the best way to tame it is narcotics, narco berries or that stuff the jelly fish things drop. Along with some meet. When it gets close to waking up click the narcotics, narco berries or the jelly fish stuff and click feed. It’ll eat the meat and stay knocked out. You could do this for any creature. You’re welcome <3
For taming easier sleep near at it (don't stray to far)
After you wake up knock this creature and look it's food it's 0
This trick will take andvance for taming and less using narcotics.
Also you can do this for any creature.
By sleeping near at it.
I really recommend you to tame them in your early state with kibble so that after you unlock its saddle it will be level uped
And you can add levels in his stamina and weight by yourself
