Pteranodon — Detailed Guide
The Pteranodon is usually the first flyer a survivor tames. It is fast, cheap to tame and light. It cannot carry much and goes down quickly, but nothing beats it for scouting, quick trips and escaping danger early in the game.
Where to find it
It is common along coasts and plains on almost every map in both games. Ragnarok in ASA has a spawn zone that holds only Pteranodons.
Taming
A knockout tame and a quick one: low torpor and low food needs make it easy with a bow and tranquilizer arrows. It is skittish and flies off when hit, so take a couple of shots and track it. Feed it meat or fish. The saddle unlocks at level 38. See the taming calculator.
Breeding
- Egg: hatches in about 1 hour 40 minutes.
- Temperature: 29 to 32 °C in ASE.
- Growth: a baby matures in about 1.5 days at 1x.
Uses
- Travel: scouting and fast travel.
- Carrying: picks up small creatures and players.
- Escape: its barrel roll attack also gets it out of tight spots.
Tips
Level stamina and speed. A Pteranodon with no stamina left drops out of the sky.
