Here is everything I know about the Cerberax. The Cerberax is a creature with three heads and a respective element on each of its head. The three heads act separately from one another, but can be master controlled by one person from the main seat. The taming process consits of gaining the respect of each head. The poison head needs you to feed it as it goes to bite you off its back. The lightning head needs you to play a minigame where you keep the sliding bar overlapped the arrow that slides across the bar. And the fire head which requires you to kill 3 creatures of its choosing. I recommend avoiding cliffs while taming it because if you are on the fire head, it can track enemies on a cliff that you cannot reach. To tame each head, you have to knock the Cerberax out with tranqs and then go up to it, once you have done that one of its heads will go up. The head that goes up is the one you tame first, this to my knowledge is completely random so be prepared for any of the taming games. Once you have gained the respect of every head you can now knock it out one last time and tame it like a normal KO tame. Now the abilities all do separate things, but I’m not as well versed in what the abilities actually do as well as I am in the taming process. The fire head does a flame spit attack and then does a flame absorb similar to the pyromane, but instead of healing it gives some sort of buff for damage. Then the poison head has a poison spit attack and also a poison absorb which does a rebuff to damage on the opposing creature. To do the absorb attacks you have to first fill up the debuffs on the creature you are fighting to 5 which will be shown on only the creature you are attacking. Once they reach 5 you can do the absorb. Now the lightning is kind of confusing so I may be wrong, but the lighting changes what the absorb abilities do. It changes the poison absorb to a heal similar to the pyromane flame absorb heal, but I’m not sure what the flame absorb boosted with lightning does.
More Cerberax Taming & KO Tips
After you play all the mini games for each head, you have to knocked it out again then you feed it kibble.
When you fully knock out Cerberax, you have to feed it extraordinary kibble not exceptional kibble. Someone told me exceptional and it’s not it.
Taming:
Tranq it.
Mount the awake head.
The middle head wants a mini game.
The fire head wants to be led to things to kill, then kill the marked one.
The poison head wants fed from your last slot when prompted.
Once all three heads have been satisfied (green check marks), tranq it again and feed it kibble or meat.
You have to knocked it out 3 times one for each head, once it’s knocked out one of the heads is going to be awake you have get close to mount it and do whatever it asks then once completed you knock out again till all 3 heads are tamed. Then knock it out one more time to officially tame it with kibble.
You have 3 challenges to do. The main part is the each challenge you complete you have to knock it out again and ride it each time. I'm not sure it'll be in order. 1st after riding it they'll try to shake off of you the mini game is that you have to maintain a blue bar to where the arrow is. The 2nd it'll point out what dinos to kill you have to kill a few of em. 3rd you have to feed (ext. Kibble for ez progress) it'll try to bite you before it does you feed it pressing F. (Similar to the octo taming) after all 3 challenges are done you have to knock it out again to really start the taming. P.S I hope this helps lol
The hunting part will mark where the enemy is like the gigantoraptor mini game when imprinting babies.
I notice when I spawned this creature, it was a passive tame, the strange part, I couldn't feed it anymore, btw ghillie doesn't work too on him.
Once the Cerberax comes out, it will be a three-part taming process. You will need to do a different things for each of the three heads to gain their “trust”. First you will need to shoot it with tranqs until it only has the energy to use one of its heads.
The first head will require you to mount it and then follow the provided movement instructions to wear down its energy.
The second head will want food so likely prime meat, mutton, and a higher tear kibble will be the best.
The third head wants to hunt so fighting and killing wild creatures will be required. As of right now I don’t know if it will mark the creatures it wants you to kill or if you just need to fight anything you can find.
Once tamed, it should be able to be mounted by three players, one for each head. One person will have control of the central head and most likely the body/movement controls. Two other players will be able to mount it and control one of the two other heads.
I believe that this will be a great new addition to the game however it will cost you $10 before you can actually tame it.
When it releases the game is done for
It’s not even out so you can’t tame it yet lol
