Tips & Strategies
When you are carrying a gasbag with a quetzal it takes wayyyyy more tranq darts then dodo dex says. It took around 110 darts for a lol 145. Was worth it but good thing i brough extra gear.
R gasbags do spawn on fjourder they are just very rare they spawn very rarly along top left of Asgard's map
Good a trap. Throw down a trail of honey. Lead it inside. Got eem.
Ok so get a harpoon gun with the net
And then get some barries or superior kibble for PC/console users I'm a console and so yeah you get the point and then get some darks and and knock it out easy
Just make sure you secure the area bc I'm playing on hardcore rn and holy I almost died trying to tame one 😭
Shoot it once, then freeze with snow owl. Since you healded it, all is forgiven it wont attack you....so shoot it again.....rinse and repeat. When you freeze it deflates so max dmg/torpor...better then when its trapped and always bloated
Best way to tame on gen 2 use jet pack and follow it and shoot it with tranq arrows
Think about this: the Gasbags is the only New To Extinction creature so far that’s in another map besides extinction, and that’s Genesis part 1.
They can be found in wasteland on extinction and in cave in space on genesis
How I knocked out a high level one in single player is I used my looked around the waste land with my poison wyvern level 120 (bean cosumer) . Found a highnlevel one grabbed it with the wyvern (press c on pc while flying)took it home. I put it in this small stone house and traped it in there got my level 225 equius in there and knocked it out after a while. If its trapped you can use any level of torpor inflicting creature as long as it won't kill it . By far the fastest way to knock is a high Melee basilisk which you don't even need to trap the gasbags with. But I don't most people have one of those as they take fertilized rock drake eggs to tame and I am still having trouble stealing one of those.
Did anyone else realize that the gasbag has a back seat,They can pretty much become an army vehicle
Requires much fewer shots than listed for deflated knockouts. Use an owl (to freeze and deflate) and a net gun and/or Dino gates to make it a very quick knockout.
