First of all… these things are very violent.

These bats stop me from raiding my arch enemy’s base they killed all my dinos which included 13 Rexs and 7 of my tribe mates came with me and died extremely quickly.

Beware, they give you bat-aids (mega-raibies)

Their mega rabies is super mega annoying!

Things to bring

1.) Bug repellant

2.) Flak/Chitin Armor (or higher)

3.) Spiked walls (wood or metal is fine)

4.) A handy ranged weapon (Rifle, SG, Fab. Pistol, AR, etc.)

5.) Narcotics (If ur looking into taming something)

6.) A durable pike (Doesn’t have to be apprentice or higher)

7.) Food and Water (duh)

8.) Tames that allow knock back (not needed btw)

9.) Your confidence to face these annoying fu-

If you have all of these then you’re set to explore the lava caves. And whatever you do, don’t fricken die.

When the onyc sees you, it will slowly fly towards you. However, if you attack it, onyc will fly much faster until killed or you go out of targeting range.

Found in almost any cave, the Onyc is an absolute nightmare for the unprepared.

Say hello to my TEETH. Gnom nom nom...

Careful of their swarm in Lava caves they will gank you and quickly surround you and push u just little on every hit ... Make sure you have wall behind you and stand with your back against it while fighting them ... Or else Lava ...

but why they do so much dmg tho

On Raganorok I had just tamed a pteradon at the Viking bay, I flew over the mountain with my pteradon to the castle I landed on the top of it and all of a sudden I get swarmed by onycs and since my pteradon had no stam we got swarmed and my pteradon “Perry” was killed and I tried to avenge him with my crossbow but was killed! RIP Perry

Some of the bats are infected with super mega rabies witch will massacre you and if you have it you will infecte anyone near

Shouldnt you be able to tame them with blood packs because these bats aren't fruit bats so it would make sense unless these aren't like vampire bats wich dont drink human blood

A cave is what i call home

So trust me, your never alone

I'll call in my friends

To make a quick end

Before you know your armour's gone.

So these annoying anti social bats with aids will make your life miserable.. there is a way to feel better and it’s called alt-4 👍 or just bring a sinomacrops to scare it away 🤷‍♂️

Bats now deserve some new levels of respect. Like their fellow Cave dweller the Megalania, they have a chance to infect you with Mega Rabies (though only a chance rather the 100% like Megalania)

They are easy to spot and avoid using bug repellent. But due to the new Biological weapon element of them. Engage at a distance where possible. Fight them with sword and pike only as a last resort. Make sure you have a stock of Antidotes or Wyvern Milk before any Splunking

It says these are 'non - violent' but my god! They are not! I found 6 of them inside a cave. These started attacking me on sight, I'm a beginner so I fled the cave and outside was my ptera on attack target mode and they began to fight and they took my ptera so high in the sky that it couldn't hear my whistles and finally they killed my lvl 60 ptera while I stood down helplessly and watched ptera getting killed.

Carry a stack of medical brew on your hotbar. If you contract mega rabies just drink up as your health drops.

Wave of rabies

Unless I’m mistaken, mega rabies does not exist in mobile. I might be wrong, but I’ve done the lava cave a bunch of times, and I’ve never gotten it. By the way I love a cave, gives awesome loot.
