Use a snow owl to deflate the gasbags and keep them from flying away and you heal them so you wont kill them with tranqs. UP THIS COMMENT

If you wanna fly longer on these bad boys upgrade oxygen

This is basically a fat caterpillar. I heard they are like pack mules because they have a lot of weight capacity. They also look adorable.

They can inflate and then they can do three things, do a huge jump that will deflate them, float/glide, and do a knockback attack that is similar to the diplodocus' only attack. They can also seat more than one person at a time

I had the server 1st Gasbag tame on legacy 915, lvl 145M. You can bola it, but it can still try and float away from you but when it lands it's still trapped. Headshots and lots of tranq arrows. Took about 130 to knock out. I kited mine into the city and under a bridge. Torpor drops super slow, used mejos and took about 11hrs. Its base weight was 4,400. It tamed out at lvl 150. Lvl oxygen so you can float longer. THEY DO TAKE FALL DAMAGE. To operate once tamed Rclick to inhale. Lclick to peck attack. C for a really fun knock back that works on wild dinos, knocked out one and players even on pve. A great trolling mechanic. Be gentle with flying it when you first get it until you learn how it handles. Inhale then space gives you a nice jump but do not hold W key. It will take you super high... then no air and then a nasty belly flop and you may kill your tame. Just give little direction corrections with the keys and you'd get a feel for it. I love this thing to death. Cameron-Forsaken 915

They have a damage resistance when inflated, so use a snow owl to freeze and deflate. After latest update, they can no longer be picked up or hit with bola. Heavily suggested to clear area of hostiles before KO. If timed right, you can keep gasbag in same area while tranqing by alternating freezing and shooting.

Keeping oxygen in reserve prevents fall damage

Inhale to increase damage resistance, get a decent level saddle, back up slowly into turrets, tank all of the enemy's turrets

Apparently they are supposed to be like a hot air ballon from what i heard, you load it up to almost encumberation and have it inflate like the fat caterpillar it is

Increase oxygen for more air time, has great base weight to use as a pack mule. Can also craft on them, so far all I can craft is the Enforcer, but I don't have a saddle yet.
