What is a gasbags used for? gasbags battling strategies in ARK: Survival Evolved.
When a gasbag has any amount of air in it has an 80% damage reduction (same as reaper king). Because of its great reduction, ability to wear saddles, have imprint bonus, eat veggie cakes, and a mate boost, it’s arguably the best tanking dino, but whenever it’s hit it looses a small amount of gas.
A good one replaces bred weight quetz with high oxy base lv oxygen and speed and it’ll haul similar or more weight far faster especially bred also probably the best tank in the game atm saddle armor imprint resistance and it’s innate 80% damage reduction when puffed all stack..... pro tip: dismount before hitting ground to 100% negate fall dmg allows precise landing by pressing c to deflate.
Quetzals and any tame that can hold a gasbag can't feel the weight of a gasbag's inventory. You can put three weight gasbags on a quetzal's saddle if you build as wide as possible. If each of your hahaha can hold 10k weight, then that adds up to 30k quiet in the back of the quetzal and the quetzal won't feel any of it. Great for metal runs, fob building, and moving.
An extremely effective way to raid someones base with this is to:
-Kill one of these and get their bladder
-Craft a delivery crate
-Get a bases coords
-Get a dodo or any small dino
-Put C4 on the dino
-Fly it to the base you want to raid's coords
-The crate should be destroyed and then the turrets will destroy the crate then once the dino is exposed the turret will shoot the C4 causing it to explode and cause damage to the structures around it
