How do I kill a terror bird? terror bird battling strategies in ARK: Survival Evolved.
If your trying to find these big versions or dodos I recommend looking around the redwoods. My base is there and every time I hear my dinosaurs attack it says “your Rex-lvl 87 - has killed a Terror Bird!
In order to get away from this creature you must kill it with a sword or a fabricated pistol
I always kill them on sight except for one I named Kylo he was once a hero. He fought a raptor to protect me and he also saved me from falling off a cliff. Best Terror Bird Ever
Be careful, you most likely won't be able to outrun one of these guys (even on a raptor). Two terror birds vs my 150+ pachy, raptor and parasaur ...my para and pachy died and by the time my raptor and I tried to outrun them but eventually killed them she was very low health. You can find these suckers everywhere. I've seen them on beaches, deserts and redwood forests.
I definitely think everyone should get one of these guys! They're very fast and can do lots of damage. They will complete your dino army.
You don’t find them…they find you
Found in red woods but THEY CAN KILL ALMOST ANYTHING BECAUSE THEY TRAVEL IN GROUPS!!!So if you want to tame them try to separate them but it’s hard
These guys always are in a pack and all over the redwoods.If u need a quick getaway jump off a ledge big enough to damage u but not enough to kill u.They will glide all the way dowe until they reach the ground,in that time it takes RUN LIKE HELL.
These things are tougher and faster than they look. DO NOT fight them early in at all. If one aggros on you, jump onto a rock it cannot climb to confuse it, or run past something else it likes to eat.
"that dodo looks kinda big. wait why is it running at me?"
The first time I see a terror bird:
Me:
Ahhhh ITS A GIGADODO!!!!! *jumps in the water
Other people:
*pulls out fabricated shotgun and shoots the terror bird in the body *gigadodo dies
Winner winner oversized chicken dinner
I easily killed one of these guys with a metal pick. Careful though, these guys can be dangerous when they’re in packs.
I would like wild card to lower down the percentage of terror birds because when I am taming something in the red woods terror birds would come and kill me and my tame
Terror birds tend to spawn/roam in packs. This is how they are easily able to kill. Logically, having a strong weapon, like a sword or pike, can make a key difference In surviving an encounter.
Me: I think I’ll tame one
The 50 of them that popped from behind a 2 inch tree: nom?
Angry chicken that kills you a lot
I was in the redwoods exploring with my Petra and i saw a few of these guys i knew not to go and look but be careful not to bump into them thier quick
These are the biggest threat for beginners when they are taming megalocores and gigantophiticus and sabertooths..
It's always the lil'uns that are the most trouble...Yes I am talking about you ya sneaky little terrible birds
They are called a Terror Bird for a reason you should be afraid.
Run from it run for your LIFE!!!
