Tips & Strategies

To safe gas for not getting fall dmg you need to stop pushing any direction in the air. I've learned it after my first Gasbags died of fall dmg π π
More Gasbags Utility Tips
If you wanna fly longer on these bad boys upgrade oxygen
Hereβs a great βUtilityβ for the gasbags.
Step one: Murder one of these
Step two: Make a delivery crate.
Step three: Record your enemyβs baseβs coords.
Step four: Attach 10 C4 to your delivery crate.
Step five: Send a little βGiftβ 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 gasbagsβ inventory.
4-When gasbags gets encumbered you carry it with the wyvern and wyvern is going to get like only 600kg weight so basically itβs 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
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
So bc most comments are from pve players here a pvp tip use them for soaking have them mate boosted veggie cakes yuty roar a deadon on passive healing and a good saddle no heavie or auto will stay in your way with a good gasbag and a food stat deadon
Inhale to increase damage resistance, get a decent level saddle, back up slowly into turrets, tank all of the enemy's turrets
