pteranodon dino grabbing

[Telsker Sonpos]

What is the biggest dino that we can grab with the pteranodon? I try dilophosaur, that worked

Weight has nothing to do with the carry. It's dino specific.

A Pteranodon can carry:
- Human
- Dodo
- Dilo

An Argentavis can carry:
- Human
- Dodo
- Dilo
- Ants
- Raptor
- Pulminoscorpius
- Phiomia
- Spider
- Snake

If you're trying to transport a human, you can also hold back to hover, then have them walk to your claws, before you pickup.

except he couldn't grab dodos/dilos/humans, hence the issue? Cheers for the Arg carry list though

Somehow I can't even manage to grab dodos, dilos or even humans with my pteradon, is it bugged? Full stam, no weight on me (besides me and the saddle) or him and still, I hear the clacking noise when I right click but I catch only air. Tried to vary the timing but even dead on, no catch.

If you're playing on pve, you can only pick up tribe dodos, dilos and players with a pteranodon. Cannot pick up any wild ones.
Only thing I can think of.

After a great deal of personally testing this statement... it is infact not true.

The flyer can lift anything that weighs 50% or less of its carry weight score.

I haven't yet been able to pick up an anky with one of my args, but I have seen someone else carrying an anky with an arg after taming a level 109 and levelling it exclusively in carry weight for a while.

I don't have a list of how much each dinosaur weighs without a saddle, either... but I have personally carried a person riding a saddled raptor on an arg that only had 600 carry weight (the rider himself was unarmored and carrying no equipment, it matters).

It is actually true, for the base official settings. If you saw someone carrying an anky, it was on a private server and had to do with personal settings or it was before they made the change that stopped them from picking up ankys.

Yeah Args could originally carry Ankylo and it was used for insane levels of flying metal farming lol (inv on dinos didn't add to carry weight at that point either from memory). Was this recently on an official server or more back when Args were first able to pick up dinos.

Aaah thank you that must be it. I tried to carry an unconscious tribemate though and it didnt work either. A tribemate tried to pick me up once a while ago and he didn't get why he couldnt pick me either. I guess I'll have to test further, thanks!
