How do I kill a magmasaur? magmasaur battling strategies in ARK: Survival Evolved.
Guys this thing’s fire attack has been buffed. IT CAN NOW DESTROY TEK!
Beware of these guys!
Up to spread the news!
This creature can damage stone with fireball attack! Be aware new survivors!!
Who thinks they should be in scorched earth (aka ur gonna die)
I found the cave on lost island for magma eggs. GPS 23.0, 64.0
On Fjordur their eggs spawn in the back of the wyvern trench you can enter from a cave located near the wyvern trench on the side closest to the obelisk. I recommend a maewing with decent HP and Melee to enter near the start of the magmasaur cave. The inside of the magmasaur cave is very hot so i recommend ascendant ghillie (i am not even hot when wearing ghillie). Inside the cave is element shards (redish rocks near the back inside a nest and near the middle on a small side piece of land), crystal, metal and BLACK PEARLS!!! Nests spawn in the middle with the lava lake. I recommend to go inside the cave a strong tame (i go overboard and use a strong carch with a very good saddle doing 4k damage on max rage.
On the new lost island map they are found in a cave at the top of the map in the volcano, the babies can be fed Sulfur rather than ambergris to stay alive
If you spawn in the hardest area of fjodur these things will be everywhere along with alpha rex, Raptors, Carnos and Basilks and megalanias and wyverns
Lunar North on N are where most of the green rocks to feed your baby magmasaur
If it finds you, RUN. if you find it, RUN.
They have caves to go in there is three nests in the fire wyvern area
If you get too close to a wild one that used it's special ability (a charge that will set it on fire and aggravate nearby dinos) it'll display a message saying "getting hot! Stay away!!!!" and that will set you on fire. Don't approach unless you know you're prepared.
They are decent swimmers which you wouldn’t think.
When spitting on metal spikes it damages it self with its own attack
Just use a thylacoleo the bleed is great
Egg incubator boosts 20% at 100 degrees
An easy way to get the eggs is with a ridden Ferox, mostly because the Ferox is somewhat mobile and doesn't aggro *most creatures in the cave.
These guys are dangerous a stupidly strong they are great if you tame them
Magmasaurs can even damage TEK with it's searing spit attack so this is a dino for raif
Use tranq arrows. It may sound dumb, but their torpor is way lower than their health. I got an egg by just knocking out three of them and teleporting away. WARNING: their torpor drains VERY fast, so you need to keep tranquilizing them while their asleep, or kill them while their knocked out.
Pull up with two rock drakes these and things drop like flies
