How do I tame a pteranodon? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a pteranodon.
Low levels r bad for use butt esay to tame so 1 -20 should take 1tranq arwow
Definitely go to the redwood on The Center Map. There are tons of high level (90-145 and 150) pteranodons in the redwood forest. Just watch for titan and terror birds and pegomastaxes.
Breed them a lot they r good my just hatch 270 lvl with 50 mutation on each parent side is a 700 melee right now
Tame some female dodos and make dodo kibble to tame some pteranodons, its very easy
The Torpor goes down really fast so be aware of that. AND KILL EVERY ENEMY otherwise they might kill you're Tame
Bola it then walk behind it and shoot it in the back of the skull, this is the easiest and quickest way I have found so far and it usually takes 1 or 2 tranq arrows
For newer players always get a bola first then punch it till it knocks out then use lots and lots of meat
Make sure not to knock it out over Waters cause then there is no point wait till it's on the ground.
Guess what? IT FLIIIES!!!!
Bola the creature in then knock it out with club.
Just throw a bola on them and your will never ever have problems to knock them out again
Definitely one of the best dinosaurs in the game, if you don't have a quatzal or tapejara yet. I recommend having a strong, a quick and a weight carrying pterenadon to help you around. Also useful for parking on rocks to snipe dinosaurs or to attack with it, since it can attack and fly away, and that a lot of times can even kill a rex
Watch out if it is a low level Pterandon amd you have tranq arrows because if you are trying to tame you might kill instead.
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.
Bruh it's so easy no need for a bola
Just shoot one tranq dart/arrow in the head and its KO
but Iff it's wrong you can just correct me
After all I use a Mastercraft longneck
