Tips & Strategies

Things you need to know about the Gasbag:
-They are good at soaking turrets when inflated as they come with great damage reduction. Just back up into the enemy turret range, tank, come back, inflate again, repeat.
-Gasbags are very good at traversing the map, but they can still take fall damage, so be careful.
-Lastly, they have very high carry weight meaning they can store all your metal, stone and obsidian.

If you wanna fly longer on these bad boys upgrade oxygen
Hereโs a great โUtilityโ for the gasbags.
Step one: Murder one of these
Step two: Make a delivery crate.
Step three: Record your enemyโs baseโs coords.
Step four: Attach 10 C4 to your delivery crate.
Step five: Send a little โGiftโ to your poor enemy.
This is a great tip:
1-Tame a gasbags and any kind of wyvern (not crystal)
2-Tame any farming creature (magmasaurus is the greatest bc it farms everything, metal, crystal, wood, stone...)
3-when your magma (or any massive farming creature) gets encumbered transfer everything to gasbagsโ inventory.
4-When gasbags gets encumbered you carry it with the wyvern and wyvern is going to get like only 600kg weight so basically itโs infinite weight.
This is the only flier that can be used on genisis. So if the amazingly fast bloodstalker is not your ideal transport, then this beanbag-balloon-bug is perfect for a slow paced surviver.
They do still take fall damage, I learned the hard way
Mine dies from fall damage and idk how to central them how do I controls them Iโm on ps5
Idk why no one wrote this but if they have a slight bit of gas in em they will take reduced fall damge so when your flying keep a bit of gas and fall down you wont feel a thing
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
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
