Taming & KO Tips
How do I tame a magmasaur? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a magmasaur.
Baby magmasaurs eat ambergris which is found on the lunar biome use a mining tool to get more ambergris farm the green glowing rocks :)
I flew in the cave with a maewing on lost island, landed near the eggs grabbed em, and got the hell out of there without a scratch. Recommend getting the hang of the maewing mechanics first though before attempting this.
Da inferno de San Francisco. Sorry about that. Hey guys lord Fred here! 🤚🏻 today I’m going to tell you how to tame arks magma dino: not an x variant, real lava: THE MAGMASAUR. Dun dun duuuun!
First off: DO NOT BELIEVE EVERYONE THAT SAYS ITS A KNOCKOUT OR PASSIVE TAME! You need to steal they’re eggs from underneath the volcano in Genesis. I am not including fjordur or lost island. (Why? Cause I don’t have those dlcs yet. I play switch.)
Second: if you are able to locate it, be aware that the volcano can erupt and murder you, so you might want to be quick. I recommend a grappling hook or a bloodstalker. Other than that, on foot is dangerous ⚠️
As there are a lot of bugs and x rock elementals and, duh, magmasaurs. (They are not just gonna leave they’re nest unprotected)
Finally: once you find your future unborn child, LEAVE IMMEDIATELY OR ELSE YOUR DONE FOR!!! If you steal more eggs, then heck your braver then me. Cause I don’t like risking my life for more eggs. One is good enough, unless you want to mutate it.
Sadly, this is the first part cause it will be too long, so be on the lookout for part 2! If this gets past only 5 ups, then part 2 will release.
Have a fun day!😁
Lord Fred, the DODO.
The babies will die if they walk on lit torches and fire.. (I learnt the hard way)
They do eat sulfur. They just eat it slowly. Put some sulfur in and wait a min and they will start eating one piece every couple minutes.
Is anyones magmasaur not eating sulfur I had raise it with 2 snow owls and it was pain
so first thing u want to do is go to fjordur and get roughly 50 blood packs as you will most likely get picked up by multiple desmodi as you will need to tame one one you get a high lvl one with high stamina you will then need to craft a whip once u get into the cave and do this on lost island you then need to wait till night then go invisible once invisible fly to an egg with not many magmasaurs nearby once u get to it equip ur whip and take it and instantly get out of there as they will all be aggrod when your getting out make sure to fly higher up for more time to evade searing spit and bam you got out with shitty lvl 20 magmasaur eggs and you wasted your time.
Ah that’s hot, that’s hot.
This was actually decently challenging, I was around level 10-20 when I did this.
-Go to the southwest part of the Volcano region
-Follow the mechanical landmark/structure to the volcano
-Run for dear life past the carnos and X-Allos
-Run for dear life past all the onyc and bugs
-Go towards an egg that is unoccupied
-Get HLNA to teleport you out, grabbing the egg right as you head out
-You’re done!
-Get demolished by a pack of X-Raptors you spawn right next which leaves your corpse basically unreachable because HLNA is a dumb sonuva
To tame these little guys, you need to steal a egg from them, the best place to get the egg is in Fjordur.
The easiest way is to use Desmodus with stamina build, you can be invisible with it (that means that others dino can’t attack you while you’re invisible). Land next to a egg and grab it asap, you just need to return to your Desmodus and fly away.
CAUTION!!!!! You can encounter Wyverns, so try doing this in the night (Desmodus ability its better during the night)
After reading through the tips in here and panicking a little bit, i have good news! I can confirm after the newest patch the magmasaurs can be raised with sulfur on ps4. Dont trust me? Well i just pulled an all nighter whilst i hatched and raised one.
Magmas:
Taming,
Get something fast to go in The Volcano, and wait till right after it erupts. This ensures that you won't be charred to pieces by the mountain. If you don't know where to go, use the mission "Eggtraction" in the gamma form. If you do, great. Once you're in the pool, catch 2-3 eggs for breeding.
Utility,
The three attacks are taunt, Searing Spit and bite. Taunt is best for hunting for your carnivores. Easy way to hunt. Searing Spit costs metal ingots, which you can smelt inside the magma, and does a lot of damage in pvp and pve missions that aren't other magmas. Bite is, well, bite. Your magma can also collect wood, thatch, metal, rock and flint very well. Can only be bred in lava.
Encountering,
If you encounter in a magma saddle, you should be good. If you aren't on a magma, make sure to whistle some very very strong tames. These things will burn you to death. Get close, you get
GETTING HOT! STAY AWAY!
closer..
GETTING HOT!!! STAY AWAY!!!
closer..
*death*
Take a fjordhawk then take a useless desmodus to the magmasaur cave and then hop off and steal all the eggs
If your stealing a magmasaur egg use a desmodus to turn invisible
Easiest way to steal an egg is teleport East volcanic, locate the mission The Egg-Straction and enter the cave. Note parachutes can be used but wing suit is better. Once you are in the cave use parachutes or a wing suit to fly into one of the little ravines and land by an egg that there are no nearby magmasaurs. Then start a teleport and as you are about to teleport pick up the egg.
To easily steal it’s egg on lost island I suggest using a maewing, you have to have the balls though. Get on your maewing and glide into the cave (suggest to scout out a bit first) then just glide him near the egg, jump off, grab the egg, ride it again and get the hell out of there
It eats/wants Ambergris for imprints!!!!
Anybody else find it weird how the babies eat ambergris?
I mean, it isn't even found in the volcano biome, how would they get it in the wild?!
Magmasaurs can be found at the end of the fire wyvern trench. You find eggs back in that cave and you also get element back there. Hope this helps!
In Ark Survival Evolved on the the Lost Island map you feed the Magmasaur Sulfur until it becomes an Adult. Sulfur can be found in the Volcano Biome, and lots can be found near the Scorched Earth Biome which is located at the bottom.
