If you wanna fly longer on these bad boys upgrade oxygen

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

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

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

They do take fall damage so be careful of how high you go.

On extinction use the gasbag for the caves because you can fly over the Dinos and it can tank tons of damage plus a damage reduction from the saddle and an 80% damage reduction when full of air

Inhale to increase damage resistance, get a decent level saddle, back up slowly into turrets, tank all of the enemy's turrets

If pure tanking power is tanking into account, this thing is second to none. Just like Rock Elementals, the Gasbags has a 80% damage reduction from almost everything (as long as it is at least partly inflated). The Gasbags, however, is much easier to tame, can be bred and has a saddle which is not that hard to find at all. Their smaller hitbox is welcome when using Velonasaurs and guns from behind them as well.

The only downside is their low damage, and also that they can't damage stone (and turrets), so don't expect to raid entire bases with it alone.

When damaged, a bit of gas will escape, so unmounted ones might find themselves taking full damage after a while. If mounting is not a option, be sure to put it on Neutral from time to time so it will inflate by itself as part of the attack behavior.

The gasbag should be in the multi-passenger section

Apparently they are supposed to be like a hot air ballon from what i heard, you load it up to almost encumberation and have it inflate like the fat caterpillar it is

Increase oxygen for more air time, has great base weight to use as a pack mule. Can also craft on them, so far all I can craft is the Enforcer, but I don't have a saddle yet.

Gasbags have the second highest base carrying weight I. The entire game. Combined with their mobility this makes them one of the best pack miles in the game

Upgrade oxygen for longer airtime/ avoid fall damage. Speed for fast travel. Weight is amazing.

Another tip most dont even know that when the gas bag is inflated it take 80% reduced damage. And with a saddle that can add lets say 50 armor to it this thing becomes a super solar for any turrit tower you may encounter.also keep in mind you lose air with the amount of damage you take but you can continue to suck in air. I recommend living oxigen and health

These bad boys soak turrets easy just get a good saddle puff up and walk backwords to the turrets and boom

If suggest pumping oxygen and stamina so you can fly longer and inhale more air. Pumping oxygen will also enable your gasbag to float on top of water for a longer time!

Big succ and ascended saddle and this thing can soak bullets faster that a sponge soaks up water

Adding to the oxygen stat increases their air intake. They also have amazing weight so makes a good pack mule.
