Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a magmasaur? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a magmasaur.
As you can't get Ambergris on lost island you may feed it with sulfur, and cryo-release it several times to change its imprinting needs.
Just run in run out as fast as you can
Not sure how many people know this but you can feed it meat. Not when raising it you have to use sulfur and/or whale poop to to that. But when it’s an adult you can feed it meat instead of stone or metal.
For ambercrisps Anky > Mining Drill
Do NOT put these into a maewing saddle. There is a decently high chance they will come out glitched and unable to be interacted with!
You do not actually HAVE to put them in lava to breed.
What you can do is:
1. Enable mating and hit with wyvern fire, however you will need to bring the a Fire Wyvern in from another map such as Scorched Earth, Ragnarok, Valguero or Ember Crystal Wyverns from Crystal Isles
2. Do the opposite of 1: Upload the Magmasaurs to another map with Wyverns, Such as the examples listed above.
3. Enable Mating, then blast them with a Flame Thrower.
4. Enable Mating. Cover a desired area with oil and make the Magmasaurs stand on said area, then light it up.
WARNING: If you hatch a Magmasaur egg in the bog biome, the rain will KILL the babies.
I hope the the above info was useful to anyone wanting to breed them outside of the volcano biome.
Baby magmasaurs don't die on snow biome
Who think the magma should be in the draconis family along managarmyr,rockdrake,and wyvern
The best way to raise magmasaur in my opinion is just to heal them with snow owl so you don’t have to go get amberis
I used my blood stalker as a grapple to swoop it and leave
grab the egg and use an op ferox to kill them
I used a bloodstalker and was able to get an egg very easily
If you are looking for way to get a magmasaur egg easily on the Lost Island upgrade your movement speed and health grab a egg and run fast hope this helps
Use a rock drake while invisible and eat cactus broth so they still don’t see you when you dismount but they will see you after you pick up egg….easy.
sulphur doesn’t work on xbox i just lost a baby mag it died without consuming any so if you want one on xbox your going to need to use a hell pigs passive healing to do it.
Get yourself a good dinosaur with a hefty amount of attack, that can kill them fast. if you ever want a chance to get one of their eggs you need to be able to kill them fast, because they can shoot a shot of magma that can kill you even while mounted. Be extra careful running through the volcano! If it starts to erupt, teleport the hell out of there. You will instantly die when it does.
You need ambergris which is located in the lunar biome in green rocks to raise a magmasaur.
The best way to get the ambergris for them is to use a chainsaw on the glowing green rocks in the lunar biome
Use a bloodstalker to steal the eggs

Some people are encouraging you to teleport just as you grab the egg, but in my experience, there is a better way.Just get either a BS or a Ferox, which shouldn’t be too hard to tame as they are probably the easiest tames of gen 1 dlc.I prefer BS coz u can just web to ceiling after u grab egg, but Ferox is just as effective at traversing the retain of the volcano.With teleporting, you risk getting attacked by magmasaurs as the teleport charged up, so I’d say it’s better to just grab egg and escape using BS or Ferox.
