ARK: Survival Evolved – How to Get the Pteranodon Saddle
When ARK: Survival Evolved Players don’t join tribes and take chunks from each other with spears, bullets and the teeth of their tamed predators, it can be surprisingly relaxing to take to the skies on the back of one of the game’s many flying dinosaurs and laugh at the warring factions below .
Of course, to ride a dinosaur, the player needs a saddle. This guide will help players unlock and craft a Pteranodon saddle so they can fly off in style.
Acquired the Pteranodon Saddle Engram
unlocking the saddle
Before players can craft anything useful ARK: Survival Evolved, they must first unlock his engram. Each level up grants upgrades to a player’s many stats and gives access to a new level of engrams that can be unlocked in exchange for engram points.
As each new engram requires at least three engram points to unlock, Players receive multiple engram points per level up. This makes it possible to save some for an engram that hasn’t been unlocked yet, or just ignore those that find them unnecessary. Without cheats, players are unable to unlock every single engram on offer, so it’s best to focus on only grabbing engrams that a player (or their tribe) needs.
To unlock the Pteranodon Saddle, players must Reach level 38 and spend 15 engram points. After that, it can be found in the crafting menu.
