Fjordhawks are also useful for fast travelling. Normally with a bed, if you try to fast travel it will drop your items but the Fjordhawk brings them to you. Very useful tame.

[@BEYPlaysGames]

Yeah they're great for that too! :D

[@wyattadams3524]

Something I like to do is black box my weight with metal from dunkle runs and just fast travel home, you can do the same with an anky but of course this is more practical for single player since it’s not easy to build a checkpoint at every metal area

[@MrFishio]

Yeah I thought off that but never knew it actually worked since I haven’t tamed one

[@neowolf09]

And otters are great for exploration to find new places to put new beds to fast travel to. A perfect pair of tames.

[@butscratcherr]

There is a 1 hour cooldown when you die with a hawk

[@Frostey1]

The desmodus is also very good at gathering spoiled meat, if you harvest the corpse of a dino you get a ton of spoiled meat which makes it a lot quicker to make narcotics

[@adamd6648]

Damn, thats amazing.

The maewing’s nursing effectiveness also increases the food effectiveness for the babies by 1% per point invested, and I believe it even works on nameless venom for rock drake babies

[@jakec1198]

What would 156% nursing effectiveness give me

[@wyattadams3524]

@@jakec1198 take the food value of whatever they’re eating and add 56%, so like (I’ve been out of ark a few days now so I’m not totally sure on the number) I believe raw meat for babies is 50 food, with 156% it would give 78 food each time making the baby eat less often. Combined with a (I believe female mate-boosted) Procoptodon you could reduce consumption by 50% as well if you wanted to min-max it

[@snillum5004]

No it doesn't 😂😂😂😂😂

[@snillum5004]

This ark myth has been debunked by having twins and using a fully lvled maewing and an unleveled maewing they both became full grown at the same time

[@wyattadams3524]

@@snillum5004 um, I said nothing about growth speed? I spoke simply about the amount of food given to babies per food item consumed? Unless you’re talking about the rock drake part, in which case I’m still not sure growth speed is relevant, but I never claimed to be an expert, nor did I say for certain so I don’t know why you have to depict yourself snickering like a young know it all who’s correcting someone over common sense knowledge

[@deadsightsx]

I think one of the most underrated features of the snow owl is no inertia when stopping in the air! being able to instantly stop is such a nice and under appreciated feature :)

[@whitemagedende3591]

There are rock drakes on vanaheim (midgard) as well. Towards the upper middle part of the grasslands there is a cave. There are shinehorns rollrats and a karkinos. There is also a a couple nice loot drops. The rock drakes are after the cavern with sabertooth salmon.

[@almightyfightey9272]

no eggs tho

[@HighExplosiveShell]

@@unluckyluchiano6092 yes, but he clearly means the vanaheim part of the map while in midguard. If you pull out your map they are in the same exact area that you’d spawn in for vanaheim I believe

Sure isn't a usual tame. But have enjoyed getting myself a Fenrir. Insane starts. Ice armor etc. Is lot of fun to ride around on. And with a pack, oh my .. sure, need to kill a boss to even get one but it's worth it.

I found that with the Desmodus and the Elixir, if you give the 30% imprint then cryo and release the baby, you can do it again and again. (I use the Dino Storage v2 Soul Traps, but I assume it works with regular Cryopods as well.)

Andrewsarchus’s are super underrated for pvp. They are great at dashing bases with c4 strapped to the player inside while running at full speed

[@RoslynLala]

I am quite happy to say, I stole two 175 eggs (I have my single player override pretty high, so a 175 isn’t too rare, but still exciting) and they ended up being male and female. Sadly all 3 170’s were male, but I digress. 😆

X-Rock Elemental is the best to tame once you have cryos.They can be found in the Magmasaur cave. Thats where i found 2 in single player one i tamed the other i killed. they havent respawned since, which is annoying me. lol Way better then the Giga at boss fights.

[@unluckyluchiano6092]

Andrewsarchus minigun isn't useless on PvE, some people on my server beat the Overseer with just a pair of em. Shit ton of ammo required though lmfao. As for the Fjordhawk, I've found them next to useless, but that's only because I'm not sticking to just Fjordur, I got Sinomacrops from Lost Island and with one of those, death is super rare for me. As well as them being able to bring you 1 wyvern egg is ok, but if you just grow some balls and kill the wyverns, you can just take all of them XD

[@BEYPlaysGames]

Yeah they ain't bad tbh I just don't think they are worth the trouble of making so many bullets as they do chew through them. I 100% agree with the Fjordhawk,I actually haven't even tamed one on my playthrough yet, every time i've got Wyvern eggs i've killed them with my Griffin or Desmodus or just flew off. I feel like alot of people benefit from them though which is why I added them in, I personally would have left them out and would rather have a Basilosaurus, Gacha or something else (which is more useful to me) replace it haha.

[@BEYPlaysGames]

Also agree that the Sinomacrops is 100 times better than the Fjordhawk, I found myself missing them alot from this map!

[@unluckyluchiano6092]

@@BEYPlaysGames yeah, the bullets are super costly, the only effective part about that strategy is they only needed 2 tames lol. And see?! My point made right there 🤣 yeah alot of players probably do benefit from Fjordhawks, but you reached the same conclusion I did, that wyverns aren't really all that tough lmao. Griffs and bats can take em out no problem because of their terrible turn radius vs griffin or desmodus having helicopter style handling AND the ability to fire weapons from their backs. And it's actually crazy how useful the Lost Island tames are for Fjordur, not only Sinomacrops, but Amargasaurus makes Jotunheims cold a joke 🤣 and personally, I think Dinopithecus can easily be counted among the best caving tames available. But if I had to pick from what's available on Fjordur, Basilosaurus or Gacha is a good choice, but also, R-Thyla 💯

[@BEYPlaysGames]

@@unluckyluchiano6092 Haha true! Nah they are not, they can't even use their breath attack once you get close with the Desmodus, i'd also definitely pick a Griffin over the Fjordhawk any day too! Agreed! Love the Dinopithecus too! Oh yes!! The R-Thyla, their colours are amazing too!
