Tips & Strategies

What are tips for gasbags? Tips and strategies for gasbags in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Good for draining any kinds of turrets if you breathe in whilst soaking on official look to get ones around 7k health for a good line
Note that it will take two to three times the recommended amount of tranqs for knockout (with crossbow at least, i assume the others as well)
When trying to tame a Gasbags the easiest way is with a snow owl and freeze it and get ur friend to knock it out
Use a Kaprosuchus to hold the Sumo wrestlers down, and punch it in the face till it goes to sleep.
Knock it out from the head like a doedic his bottom body is armoured
When they suck in air they take much less damage and torpor if you can try to hit them when they are deflated
When he starts to suck in air while standing on his back legs shoot his belly. This does higher top or dmg.
If you have gen two, you can net and put two dino gateways and gates as close to the middle of its body as possible. Make sure to bring either lots of tranqs or an owl
You can use it to soak the turrets of enemy bases, you just have to level a Quarter into oxygen and the rest into Health. Depends on the server settings, but on Official Servers it should be ok.
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 😭
They take less damage and torpor when inflated up so people know
Superior augmented kibble to tame these big bags.
Use a net gun to trap them so they don't float away, makes taming a whole lot easier for sure.
There basically CHONKY caterpillars that can carry a lot.
When inflated, the Gas ass will take 80 percent less damage. Meaning put levels into oxygen and heath, and you have a perfect soaker for turrets in PVP. Not to mention, if you put a good amount of levels into speed and learn how to fly one greatly, you will also have a great flyer. Just make sure to have some oxygen if planning to land.
