Easiest way to get eggs is with skiff grabbing a tribe member with a whip. Hover over egg and whip
I’ve learned that throwing a high level Rex to kill everything works really well
Find a high level one and raise it. Imprint it all the way. Now you can harvest decent metal out of ordinary rocks, and get TONS of metal from node rocks. They shame Ankys and elementals, add thatch to your inventory before the harvest, then take it out to get stone and wood, now add stone and wood to your inventory of thatch and build anything. Now sprint in it. See how slow the stamina drains? Nice. Won’t Agro swarms and can defend in a fight. Watch it’s health. Now force feed it Ambergrease, see it regenerate health? Awesome!
Now ponder what breeding for stats will do to make it better...
Super easy to kill these. Just stay behind them at their tails and attack. They only are able to defend their fronts. They only have one AOE attack that can hit all creatures in the area with projectiles, one purple cloud that acts as rare flower, and one that heats the area around to ignite ground foes. But they use those sparingly, and are easy to kill with Allosaurs and Rexes.
If you are on a “free build, missions disabled, fliers enabled official servers” you can kill them with Argies. Just attack their backs and tails. But watch for their buddies that might snipe you out of the air from a ways away.
Run.
A HELPFUL TIP SHOULD INCLUDE MORE WORDS
Maturation on small tribes is 5x faster than indicated atm
To tame Magmasaur you must steal the egg
Best way to get eggs is to leave 3 or more rexes at the entrance by the eggstraction mission. Run multiple people in on 1 rex at a time. Eat cactus brew, parachute, teleport, grab egg, and run back. Rinse repeat, just make sure you leave the rexes in a safe point in the cave away from magmas and golems.
You can't tame adults so I suggest look for the in the volcano where they then get the egg becarefull so non of them know then put the egg in the center of a torch circle like the wyvern it might work just advice
One Ambergris gives 500 food and at beginning they eat a lot
If trying to get eggs use a bloodstalker [thats what I recommend if your good at using them and have high health.] And district the parents and get the egg and get the hell out of there
Like it’s predecessors, the Magmasaur is a simple “Grab the egg and get the hell out” tame, however this one CAN be breed with each other, but only in lava. Don’t bother trying it on Val or Rag, as it won’t work. The only lava source it works on is Genesis, so build a base near lava if you want as many Magmasaurs as possible.
Tame a archeoptrix in the ocean se spawn I used it to fly all the way down to the eggs cryo it used parachutes n grapple easy they don't take much to tame I have loads now I call them my super pigeon lol
Food consumption is about 10pts/1min. Making 600pts/1hr.
If you have a space whale, you can use it to produce the ambergris you need beforehand and during taming. I hope this is helpful.
