Are Desmodus Allowed on Genesis 1?
The Desmodus is a popular flying mount in the ARK universe, known for its speed and agility. However, with the release of the new Genesis 1 map, many players are wondering if the Desmodus is allowed on this new environment. In this article, we’ll explore the restrictions and limitations of the Desmodus on Genesis 1, and provide a comprehensive answer to this question.
Flying Restrictions
The first thing to consider when deciding if Desmodus are allowed on Genesis 1 is the flying restriction. According to official ARK sources, the Desmodus can fly in any cave (except for Aberration). This means that as long as you’re exploring a cave on Genesis 1, you’ll be able to ride your Desmodus without any restrictions.
Cave Exceptions
However, there is an exception to the cave flying rule. Aberration, a unique biome on Genesis 1, has its own set of rules. In Aberration, flying creatures like the Desmodus are not allowed to fly due to the unique atmospheric conditions. If you’re exploring Aberration, you’ll need to leave your Desmodus on the ground or find an alternative means of transportation.
Tek Cave and Lava Golem Cave
Another biome on Genesis 1 worth mentioning is the Tek Cave and Lava Golem Cave. These biomes are not exempt from the flying restriction, which means that your Desmodus will not be able to fly in these areas.
Other Biomes
For the other biomes on Genesis 1, such as the lush forests, deserts, and oceans, the flying restriction is lifted. You’ll be able to ride your Desmodus freely without any restrictions.
Summary of Flying Restrictions
Here’s a summary of the flying restrictions on Genesis 1:
| Biome | Flying Restriction |
|---|---|
| Caves (except Aberration) | Not restricted |
| Aberration | Not allowed to fly |
| Tek Cave and Lava Golem Cave | Not allowed to fly |
| Other biomes | Not restricted |
Food and Taming
Now that we’ve covered the flying restrictions, let’s talk about the food and taming aspect of the Desmodus on Genesis 1.
Baby Desmodus Food
Baby Desmoduses go through food very fast, so you’ll need to make sure you have a steady supply of food for them. Cooked Prime meat is always a good option, as it restores a lot of food for your Desmodus and is low on weight and spoil timers.
Bloodpacks
Another option for feeding your Desmodus is bloodpacks. These can be obtained by killing other creatures, such as the Luminous Leviathan, and can be used to restore a significant amount of food for your Desmodus.
Taming the Desmodus
Taming the Desmodus is relatively easy, but it does require some strategy and patience. Make sure you have a good quality food source, such as cooked Prime meat or bloodpacks, and try to tame the Desmodus when it’s most vulnerable, such as during a blood moon event.
Conclusion
In conclusion, the Desmodus is allowed on Genesis 1, but there are some restrictions and limitations to consider. Flying creatures like the Desmodus are not allowed to fly in Aberration, Tek Cave, and Lava Golem Cave. However, they can fly freely in caves, other biomes, and even hang onto walls. Baby Desmoduses require a steady supply of food, and taming them requires strategy and patience. With this information, you’ll be well on your way to enjoying your Desmodus on the new Genesis 1 map.
