Build spikes or walls around your bird or anything hightvlvl u knock out

Got a perfect tame on a 150 over the double xp weekend. It ended up being a 212 when it was said and done. Now it is at 261 with Max lvl at 273. Health and stamina 2k, weight over 300, and melee just over 400. He is a beast! Bola legs and let him eat dodo kibble. It only took 12 or 13 kibble due to the double xp weekend.

Bola and don't use the tranq info from dododex because it's absolutely wrong by about 3 and 100 on a giga

Find a ptera that's a 140 or higher with base melee that's 200 or better. That's how you get the strongest birds! I just found a 145 with base melee at 245!

Scout:

Any level of pteranodon will work as the only stay you need to level up is weight. Good for getting around very fast.

Transport:

High level Ptera is preferred. Can be used to quickly transport resources back to base. I recommend pumping weight up to 300-350 and putting the rest into speed. 300-350 will ensure that you can carry an entire stack of 200 metal, saddle, and tools without being encumbered. Works well an ankylo at the mining site or a character with high amounts of melee for fast harvesting.

Meat Gatherer:

High level Ptera preferred. Level up stamina to 2k, movement speed to 160-180% and the rest of the points to melee. This makes harvesting prime meat easy as you can fly it back to base in time and get it cooked before it spoils. Level up weight as necessary.

Bring at least one bola, 3-4 spike walls and a crossbow with tranq arrows. Wait for the pteranodon to land and wind up the bola to trap it in place. Shoot it in the head with tranq arrows and wait 5 seconds between shots. Once knocked out, place spike walls around it with a small gap so you can get in and check on its hunger and torpor. Check back every so often to add extra narcotics until tamed.

How to tame a ptero

Ya will need:

-bolas

-narcoberry

-meat

Find a ptero and throw bola on it. Knock that even it stay unconscious. Put meat on inventory (recommended 20 or less or more bc the tame bar grow slowly). Why narcoberries? When its unconsciousness will be ending, start feeding narcoberries to fill unconscious bar. Sorry if my english is bad.

Very very hard when I was trying to tame this I didn’t sucseed because

it keeps flying away.

1 make a bow and 5 knock out arrows.

2 find a pteranodon that’s on the ground.

3 shoot it in the head with arrow and if it flys hit it again.

4 give it dodo kibble ( only on mobile ) or simple kibble.

5 give it nacro berries if it is about to wake up.

6 give a saddle for your new friend.

Super easy to tame. Bola it, feed it meat, give it nacroatics and boom. You have to be pretty high lv to fly it though sadly.

I never got won bit keep hitting it untill it's knocked out

If your a pvp player, definitely go to center for these as there is a huge spot for whale guys (leedsycthis or something) they can give super big amounts of prime fish meat, and pt's spawn near them as well.

Bola, Tranq, and have at least 100 Narcotics on you when you tame it. Keep near it for a while, maybe build defense around the pt so it can't be attacked by other players and hostile carnivores.

Good luck taming guys!

Walk up to it with a cross bow and shoot it in the face then shove stacks of meat in it. Then if no narcoberries or narcotics can be used simply wack with candy cane to ensure compliance.

I made regular kibblemto tame mine! I was able to steal a carb. Turtle egg when i was out gathering chitin or whatever you call it lol narco berries work just as well as Narco.mix. good luck my fellow Ark players!!!

Slasher

I’ve been looking for days and I finally find one

Try knocking onecout and force feeding organic polymer it will keep it knocked out the entire time just wait till the thing almost wakes up and force feed it the polymer

Dont suck with a bird learn to soar and fly high and not just die.

Try to knock and tame it on herbivor island because there are no bad thing

When starve taming make sure it is hungry enough to eat everything at once and be done. Otherwise you will lose levels.
