Encountering Tips
How do I kill a rock elemental? rock elemental battling strategies in ARK: Survival Evolved.
The name is shown even if disguised, but only when you use a spyglass.
(Lol I already see the noobs running around spyglassing even the smallest rock)
My first encounter:
Did that rock just move?
‘Looks away for 2 seconds’
HOLY SHIT!!!!!!!!!
Best weapons are pickaxe,metalpicaxe metalsword for close up and for range rockets and grenades so sharp and explosive tings.
Remember carnos can bleed rock Elementals to death now
There is a smaller version of these guys called the Rubble Golem in scorched earth caves. Unfortunately they are not tameable, they would made a really good tame though.
Easy to find on Valgero in snow or Ragnarok at volcanic
Not a rock
Unless you have a bronto covered in cannons, run.
On crystal isles they are painfully visible since they are a dark grey and mostly in the desert with yellow rocks
I’ve had one spawn multiple times around 77 Lat and 46 Lon on Crystal Isles (desert area).
An easy place to find them is in the chalk hills on valguero
Went up against a level 50 one with a 278 reaper king....took half an hour these things are TANKS
To escape this creature is run
I took my Rock Golem to the wyvern cave on rag and killed every wyvern and got so many wyvern eggs
Me and my friends had 12 wyverns
and still couldn't kill it
fjordur players! cant find one? well you can actually find a R rock elemental (lava like rock elemental) in the magmasaur pit. if you dont know where that it its at the south end of the fire wyvern trench. it should spawn not in the lava but the trail you used to get in here in the magmasaur part. idk but i think they spawn in the 3 sections before you get in the actual magmasaur pit part. be wary about the onyc or magmasaurs!
if you get attacked by these anoying bastards, just take out your allos and they will do a bleed attack and take them down easily
Be careful walking on rocks, you can glitch into them while they're disguised and get stuck.
Rock Elementals seem to take full damage from Giganotosaurus. So if you can transfer a Giga in from another map they can make relatively short work of any of these pesky Golems.
Get a flight mount and go to the mountains the yellowish rocks are rock elementals
