Kudos for the several different posts of ideas for this creature being posted together and everyone commenting with kindness and encouragement together! I have always felt this is all about getting the best possible options for each animal so we all should work together for that. And listing every idea gives WC more to choose from should it win! We're all in this together so it's better to work as a team to make it the best we can instead of tearing each other down for different thoughts! Makes me admire this animal more for the camaraderie I see!

Welcome survivors today i will be presenting the Hatzegopteryx the island hopping pterosaur with neer infinite stamina. I imagine the Hatz would be no apex of the sky but rather an apex on the ground just the way it was IRL. I think it would do extra damage to small terrestrial creatures seeing as that was their main prey in their time, they would be able to sprint at great speeds even outrunning rexes. They would have an attack where they pick up dinos up to the size of a raptor with their beak, they would have a peck attack. There would be sexual dimorphism in hatzegopteryx with males having a large colorful crest and striped patterning, while the females lack a crest and have spotted patterning. You would tame it by offering it high tier loot(not blueprints and artifacts) and feeding it meat.


 

Name: Hatzegopteryx Thambema

Time: late cretaceous 

Diet: carnivore

Temperament: Curious... Sometimes


 

Wild

The Hatzegopteryx is one of the most amazing, majestic, and suprisingly Very common creatures on this ark. The Hatz is an island hopping pterosaur that lives on coastal islands but can be commonly found nesting and hunting atop the floating island. They are sexually dimorphic with the males having large beautiful crests and the females lacking a crest and a different pattern than the males. They are not aggressive towards humans in fact they are incredibly curious of people and will come up to people without aggression. I have found that offering meat to the hatzegopteryx will grant you high teir loot from their piles of treasure hidden underneath the floating island alternatively you could steal from these piles witch will lead you to a swift demise. However offering it fish meat will cause the Hatz to bellow and fly away as they hate fish meat.

 

Domesticated

A tamed Hatzegopteryx will be your best friend and will be a hunting buddy and loyal defender. The saddles I've seen used for this magnificent creature is one that carries two survivors and is equipped with a small machine gun turret for defense seeing as Hatzes are not built for air battles. Hatzegopteryx can also commonly be equipped with a bombing saddle as well as assisting in moving large amounts of resources with a saddle with crates on the sides. Apart from its utility it is a great cuddle buddy, and something i've noticed is that survivors that pet or cuddle their buddy have a boost in confidence and endurance.

 

 

Taming method#1: the first taming method is quite horrific, you have to feed the hatzegopteryx baby dinosaurs. the higher the level of the baby the more levels the hatzegopteryx gets.

Taming method#2: If you tame a male hatzegopteryx you can do a courtship display in the form of an emote(similer to prehistoric planet) and if the female partisipates in the emote she will be tamed.


Sprint: they can run faster than any other flyer. Also taking off while sprinting gives it a large speed boost

 

Flight: can fly faster than wyvern

 

Peck/Bite attack: 50 base damage

 

Headbutt: 100 base damage high knockback

 

Pick up bite: does a bite that picks up any dino the size of a para or smaller.

 

Roar: does a roar that gives all flyers in an area more stamina, damage resistance and speed. Also scares anything the size of a yuty or smaller

 

Thunder clap: does an attack that shoots the Hatzegopteryx 20 meters higher in the air doing 70 base damage and blowing other flyers away.(like rodans attack from godzilla king of the monsters)

BAD CRAZINESS! — RODAN! Godzilla: King of the Monsters (2019)

 

Jetstream: ally flyers within a 20 meter radius of the Hatz can fly for far longer without landing.

 

Island hopping: Hatzegopteryx can fly for a near infinate amount of time. They are also faster when flying over bodies of water.

 

Weight reduction: they have a 60% weight reduction

 

Base saddle learned at level 65

 

Turret saddle learned at level 70

 

Bomber/armor saddle learned at level 85

 

Can go to sleep, once asleep can be cuddled(kind of works as a bed) can also be pet.




 

Physical description: They are a quit a bit taller than a rex, wingspan bigger than a wyverns. They have sexual dimorphism with the males having large colorful crests, they are also larger than females, the females lack crests but have a larger claws on their wings they also have a striped pattern going down their neck. They have small tooth-like spikes protruding from the bottom of their beek. They have an upright stance like their IRL variant.

i used the taming method i forgot to add some of the abilities

All good I would recommend the
-Rescue mode that you can enable in the radical wheel it fits good with the friendship thing, it lets the bird come and pick you up on the saddle if you whistle after it
-Taming protection which is a extra part of rescue mode which let it protect tame by blowing them back(maybe use one of your abilities instead of blowing them back) and then alerting its owner, which again show a strong friendship

Hatzegopteryx- The lord of the Skies


IjgrsQoypqgpjBC3FURY71414vfqRqp9DwfHc2mKOJJS5C7RnmF7hjK4VskUMac6gFjJpz0eLk3361T4lNg-LHDSRnQTtM3AmNroVnuiqkr-IJuqhqGFVOo-MZfmJ1VazyG1osrPEEXd2I8KUjvzJBA

Hat-zee-gop-ter-ix OR Hat-ze

 

Wild

-A prideful creature by nature, one does not simply fly right up to a Hatzegopteryx. They greatly value their personal space and if one sees you in its skies it will pursue you with extreme animosity. Although they generally stay up very high in the sky they do descend at dusk to hunt. If you see one on the ground it's best avoided as humans are perfectly sized prey.

 

General

-Despite being slightly larger than a Quetzal they are far better at moving while grounded, being able to sprint and turn in place while landed. This leads them to actually be effective terrestrial hunters as long as their prey is much smaller than them (more dmg to smaller things). In flight the Hatze is faster than its smaller relative, but there are drawbacks to its Imposing size and attitude. Its bulk means its flight stamina, while impressive, doesn't match the Quetzals, also unlike Arks Quetz its stubborn attitude means that it will simply refuse to fly if weighed down too much (Less weight & stam than the Quetz, Higher Speed, Damage, and Health).

 

Taming 

-Hatze is too high strung when agitated for traqs to work, and conditioning with food isn't very effective because of its stubborn nature. The only way to tame a Hatze is to break it like a horse. Jump onto it from high above and hold on tight, because you're about to be taken for the most deadly ride in Ark. If you fall you'll be dead before you hit the ground, but if you prove yourself worthy you'll have a mighty new ally.

 

Combat&Abilities

-Hatzegopteryx didn't get the title of Lord for nothing, no creature is more fearsome in close range, mid-air combat. They do significantly more damage trading blows with creatures that are in its domain (Flying). They've got a great dis taste for other Massive flyers and will receive a rivalry buff similar to Trikes around enemy Hatzes and Rhyniognatha. Being as defiant as they are, Hatzes are immune to the fear effects of other creatures. They also have a diving slam attack that can knock off riders and stun fliers out of flight, but only if they are below the Hatze as it needs great momentum to pull this feat off (You really, really don't want to hit the ground attempting this). Lastly, some crazy survivors designed a Bomber saddle for it to drop bombardments of grenades from up high. This is one creature you do not want above you.

 

Addressing Past Criticisms

-Yes Hatzegopteryx in real life is a very similar creature to the Quetzal, however that doesn't mean that they have to look identical in game. WC has full creative liberties with their creature designs, and honestly the creatures we've gotten in the last few years have all looked AMAZING.

-A Quetzal TLC, while nice, would not become the creature im asking for here, do you honestly believe that they would 180 a peaceful transport tame into the menace i'm asking for? They can't do that with platform creatures, they would be to OP. I feel a new creature without a platform saddle fills the role of an aggressive Pterosaur much better.

-To the people whining about the saddle being OP. A bomber saddle is ALREADY IN THE GAME! Astrocetus has one, but I don't blame you for forgetting that. This would just be like an industrial tier version of the Tek saddle that the Astro already has.

 

TLDR

Apex Flyer, Aggressive in the wild, More damage to creatures & players that are flying, Bomber saddle for Blowing things up, Rival of the Rhyniognatha. (if your gonna be hater you'd better educate yourself and read the whole thing)

 

Hatze was very likely the heaviest animal to ever fly, it's a perfect sky apex.

It deserves to be in the game.

Here is my idea for the guy I saw this one was before mine

Hatzegopteryx
Credit to juaniglesiasart on fiverr for the art in the dossier

k03wn1uKTZxx4qzLsWzrizNzJEiR6l6CrJpqLw5iwBWO89mdChVllnAQYbO2OtdJ4symkxoJ7woCP85G4IynhDuDy9dRzpsXBqIWD-RUvMEcXkXLnEUB6c41xOB6SbrOa1z5OwrF5IJ_a3-92CZIvOM

Spiecies: Hatzegopteryx thambema
Time: Maastrichtian of the Cretaceous.
Diet: Carnivore
Temperament: Aggressive 


Wild
I never imagined I would see such a big bird that seems to almost rival the mighty Quetzalcoatl in size! They do not seem to be very friendly to humans, and larger creatures don't seem to be interesting to them at all. They seem to mostly fly around the big floating island at the center of the map, it seems almost impossible for one to even come near to these flying beasts, and it seems that they almost never need to land to rest their mighty wings. Domesticating this wild creature might be near impossible.

 

Domesticated 

Some survivors have attempted taming the beasts and after many failed attempts with many deaths as a result they finally succeeded in taming these flying titans. The method that ended up being a success is rather morbid though. They were taunting the beasts and since they are aggressive towards humans by nature it made them follow them home in rage. They then took out living baby dinosaurs, this made the creature stop its wrath for a short moment and it then switched target to the baby dinosaurs. The insane survivors then fed it baby dinosaurs and that kept the creature docile until it was completely domesticated by mankind. 

 

When a domesticated Hatzegopteryx seems to be an all around good flier although it doesn't have the mighty weight of a Quetzalcoatl or the speed of a pteradon, this bird is one of the mightiest air fighters ever seen. Even seems to have a kind of fighting instinct that lets it lock on to dinosaurs going into a kind of state of rapid positional changes much like the Tapejara way of flying through the air. They seems to have a certain ability to eat up small dinosaurs and getting more meat out of them, even getting prime meat out of smaller sized dinosaurs too, and if that isn't enough it has picked up a tendency if it is left by a creature its owner is in the process of taming, it will use its mighty wings to blow away hostile dinosaurs and scream to alert its owner. It has the will to save its owner from danger by flying over them, grabbing them with its beak and throwing them onto their saddle if called for.
 



 


Stats
It will have less weight than a Quetzalcoatl

But will be rather slower than a Pteranodon, but not as slow as a Quetzalcoatl.
 


Abilities

D-Q93U4-v-SSgVrW4TJgDK8KKYRzHqovKY_K4pajEr0ovnkPd8nt5C8EJpUbKs4TMjeonL0Rn22ZqceNlVrCwAh8NZWDumnVvX1MEK_mK3Y13CTD2jWafY2HnnEa85KKtbDcTwNopNGBBKJqKTlVSqs

  • On the ground: Left mouse button will cause the beast to attack (if done against small creatures it will instakill it).

  • While flying: Left mouse button will cause normal attacks similar to the very similar to a Quetzalcoatl.

  • On the ground: Pressing spacebar makes it take off into the air

  • While flying: Holding spacebar makes it glide down through the air, much like the Rockdrake but with the advantage of already being able to fly.

  • Gliding makes it regain some stamina since it's almost resting while gliding down which is also well combined with the NafTgpcBjRpKr_ibxbF0LqB8ADHI06l6hW7JLIgkT6KgETqFeSX3sSbOqgGqO6mAVuVzcq54QgUH9US-wNPDMaOFvgY2h4ll59aDnXNVYmitAc_Xx9SglV1YZLopJllrAY4IiSbmbmjrpO01WFVVQns button that creates a big burst of speed sending the beast dashing forward

Right click: locks on to a target for a short while, if held it will keep its focus on the nearest dinosaur(if done in the air it will hover like a Tapejara, to make combat easier)

C button 

 

  • On the ground: Will make it flap its win in front of it making knocking back dinosaurs, even doing a little bit of damage 

  • While flying: Will make it do a dash in the targeted direction making it dive into the target doing a good amount of damage to the target and making them bleed for a short period of time. But this will also be consuming a large amount of stamina, can also be used to give the glide more momentum and travel far distances fast.

  • On the ground: Lets the Hatzegopteryx grab creatures in certain sizes with  its beak and carry them around.

  • While flying: It will also carry creatures but if used on a bigger hostile dinosaur it will apply a temporary bleed to the target.

  • Rescue mode: Holding the qjnOqtK-qv7YjbcRI-RrycOmJ5NWVrRM_4BWnytyryUwXontpY_p32FGZz2f5EIEZ8ZwX_WrPk-au5rNt6G1WF_FcfMYbTkYaU8bhA_qBhjafXohVArOnb4m-9on_V4-x3l7Qu-0CAOyzm-UNsvqZ3g button on the Hatzegopteryx will open the interaction wheel for the dinosaur and there will be an option called Rescue mode. 

 

  • With rescue mode enabled: If called upon with a whistle the Hatzegopteryx will instantly fly to its owners rescue by picking them up with its beak and throwing them onto their saddle saving them from danger.

Taming protection
It has by default the ability if it is left by a creature its owner is in the process of taming, it will use its mighty wings to blow away hostile dinosaurs and scream to alert its owner.

Meat gather:
When killing small creatures such as Dodo’s, compy’s, Dilo’s and Oviraptor’s, they will get insta killed and consumed immediately. They will get more meat and have a big chance to also get prime meat from them, even though they are smaller dinosaurs.This will also apply to babies.

 

Well feed boost:
When the Hatzegopteryx eats a baby dinosaur it will gain temporary increased speed and decreased stamina consumption(the speed will rival that of the wyvern).

Taming:

The Hatzegoperyx is by nature aggressive towards humans, so it will chase anyone in a deep rage. By luring the Hatzegoperytx to your home and show them a baby dinosaur, it will immediately switch target from you to the dinosaur, by feeding them the baby dinosaur it will progress the tamebar and the Hatzegoperytx will remain calm as long as you keep feeding it. You will have to do this until it's completely domesticated. 

 

That is honestly so cool!

Really love the idea of a faster, more aggressive quetzal. Game is lacking in big pterosaurs, and given the amount of water on the map, something with lots of stamina capable of soaring between its pieces of land seems very fitting. While the first submission isn't my favorite out of all the others in the comments, I do like a lot of the points people have suggested. Just gonna list the main points I'd like to see in a creature like this:

- Quicker, more damage

- Able to pick up some dinos, either with its talons or its massive beak

- landing on water to regain stamina (sort of like the pelagornis)

- A "glide" or "soar" mode that doesn't deplete stamina (or greatly reduces stamina depletion)

I have a suggestion for your hatzygopteryx, since it would probably be bigger than the quetzal, it could be big enough where you could make it pick up the giganotosaurus and charcaradontasaurus, I think that would be really cool to be able to do just like how the rhyniognatha can pick up the trex, what do you think? I believe a lot of people would like this idea 💡

Hey buddy I believe you should also make hatzygopteryx be able to pick up giganotosaurus and carcharodontosaurus, that would be pretty neat right, what do you think?

Welcome survivors today i will be presenting the Hatzegopteryx the island hopping pterosaur with neer infinite stamina. I imagine the Hatz would be no apex of the sky but rather an apex on the ground just the way it was IRL. I think it would do extra damage to small terrestrial creatures seeing as that was their main prey in their time, they would be able to sprint at great speeds even outrunning rexes. They would have an attack where they pick up dinos up to the size of a raptor with their beak, they would have a peck attack. There would be sexual dimorphism in hatzegopteryx with males having a large colorful crest and striped patterning, while the females lack a crest and have spotted patterning.


 

Name: Hatzegopteryx Thambema

Time: late cretaceous 

Diet: carnivore

Temperament: Curious... Sometimes


 

Wild

The Hatzegopteryx is one of the most amazing, majestic, and suprisingly Very common creatures on this ark. The Hatz is an island hopping pterosaur that lives on coastal islands but can also commonly be found nesting, hunting, and taking care of their young atop the floating island. The massive nests of the hatzegopteryx can be found on the sides of cliffs where their eggs and young are safe, they have anywhere from 2-3 eggs at a time. They are sexually dimorphic with the males having large beautiful crests and the females lacking a crest and a different pattern than the males. They are not aggressive towards humans in fact they are incredibly curious of people and will come up to people without aggression, however if you have any baby dinosaur with you they will snap them up in an instant. I have found that offering meat to the hatzegopteryx will grant you high teir loot from their piles of treasure hidden underneath the floating island alternatively you could steal from these piles witch will lead you to a swift demise. However offering it fish meat will cause the Hatz to bellow and fly away as they hate fish meat. I have heard rumers of machanical hatzegopteryx flying around the very top of the floating island but those are just rumers, i hope.

 

Domesticated

A tamed Hatzegopteryx will be your best friend and will be a hunting buddy and loyal defender. The saddles I've seen used for this magnificent creature is one that carries two survivors and is equipped with a small machine gun turret for defense seeing as Hatzes are not built for air battles. Hatzegopteryx can also commonly be equipped with a bombing saddle as well as assisting in moving large amounts of resources with a saddle with crates on the sides. Apart from its utility it is a great cuddle buddy, and something i've noticed is that survivors that pet or cuddle their buddy have a boost in confidence and endurance. The bond between a Hatzegopteryx and its owner is incredibly strong, if a  survivor is in danger the Hatz will save them without hesitation.

 

 

Taming method#1: the first taming method is quite horrific, you have to feed the hatzegopteryx baby dinosaurs. the higher the level of the baby the more levels the hatzegopteryx gets.

Taming method#2: If you tame a male hatzegopteryx you can do a courtship display in the form of an emote(similer to prehistoric planet) and if the female partisipates in the emote she will be tamed.


Sprint: they can run faster than any other flyer. Also taking off while sprinting gives it a large speed boost

 

Flight: can fly faster than wyvern

 

Cliff latch: they can latch onto the sides of cliffs.

 

Peck/Bite attack: 50 base damage

 

Headbutt: 100 base damage high knockback

 

Swallow: can grab and swallow anything the size of a raptor or smaller whole. if a player is grabbed they will have to attack to get out of it similer to the carnoflora, if the player does not escape they will be swallowed and killed.

 

Pick up bite: does a bite that picks up any dino the size of a para or smaller.

 

Roar: does a roar that gives all ally flyers in an area more stamina, damage resistance and speed. Also scares anything the size of a yuty or smaller, there is a 50/50 chance for creatures to freeze in fear or run away.

 

Taming protection: It has by default the ability if it is left by a creature its owner is in the process of taming, it will use its mighty wings to blow away hostile dinosaurs and scream to alert its owner.

 

Flyers Rivalry: They've got a great dis taste for other Massive flyers and will receive a rivalry buff similar to Trikes near apex carnivores. Hatzes gain a buff that activates when they are around enemy Hatzes, Rhyniognatha, or wyverns. this buff gives them increased damage output and damage resistance.

 

Rescue mode: Holding the qjnOqtK-qv7YjbcRI-RrycOmJ5NWVrRM_4BWnytyryUwXontpY_p32FGZz2f5EIEZ8ZwX_WrPk-au5rNt6G1WF_FcfMYbTkYaU8bhA_qBhjafXohVArOnb4m-9on_V4-x3l7Qu-0CAOyzm-UNsvqZ3g button on the Hatzegopteryx will open the interaction wheel for the dinosaur and there will be an option called Rescue mode. With rescue mode enabled: If called upon with a whistle the Hatzegopteryx will instantly fly to its owners rescue by picking them up with its beak and throwing them onto their saddle saving them from danger.

 

Thunder clap: does an attack that shoots the Hatzegopteryx 20 meters higher in the air doing 70 base damage and blowing other flyers away.(like rodans attack from godzilla king of the monsters)

BAD CRAZINESS! — RODAN! Godzilla: King of the Monsters (2019)

 

Jetstream: ally flyers within a 20 meter radius of the Hatz can fly for far longer without landing.

 

Island hopping: Hatzegopteryx can fly for a near infinate amount of time. They are also faster when flying over bodies of water.

 

Weight reduction: they have a 60% weight reduction

 

Base saddle learned at level 65

 

Turret saddle learned at level 70

 

Bomber/armor saddle learned at level 85

 

Can go to sleep, once asleep can be cuddled(kind of works as a bed). You can also pet your Hatz and it will give you a boost of confidence.



Tek Hatzegopteryx: the Tek Hatzegopteryx is a very rare version of the Hatz that is bigger than a normal hatz(10% bigger) and it sounds more machanical. It has night vision an EMP roar that will deactivate turrets, tek equipment, generators and tek shields. The thunder clap stuns any flyers in a 15 meter radius. in order to tame this creature however you have to defeat the bosses and have tek armor.

Tek Hatz Abilities:

Bite: does 75 base damage

Headbutt: 150 base damage

EMP Roar: Does a roar that deactivates turrets, tek equipment( Armor and wepons), generators, and mechs.

All other abilities are the same
