Tips & Strategies

41.8 49.2 - these are the coordinates for the Drake nest located in Asgard (orange portal in the portal room) on Fjourd
To raid the nest on fjordur I recommend using a pack of aberrant megalosaurus and a desmodus. They all are immune to radiation so you won’t need mushroom brew. Ride the desmodus while wearing radiation armor. Sic the megs on the drakes till there are none left. You could also use aberrant spino, found in aberration cave like megalosaurus.
RAPTORS CAN DISMOUNT YOU OFF A ROCK DRAKE
THE ULTIMATE SURVIVOR’S GUIDE TO FJORDUR:
Rock Drakes
Encountering - Drake Cave is hidden in one of the purple forests in Asgard, beware of radiation! It’s situated in one of the corners of the biome I believe.
Egg Stealing - Bring a strong mount, drakes pack a punch! 10k hp tame and 500 base damage recommended for higher level drakes. Andrewsarchus’ protection from radiation and raw power is recommended.
Egg Hatching - Eggs need around 2k hypothermic insulation (very cold) so use a dimetrodon with high melee (found in balheimr) or use air cons.
Raising - Baby drakes only eat nameless venom, mine this from orange cracked rocks in the aberration cave, purple geode cave in the southeastern Vannaland beaches. Drakes also imprint with the venom. Remember to grab some red gems in the cave for the next step!
Saddle - The saddle requires 225 fiber, 350 hide, 125 metal ingots and 85 red gems (remember the last step?) They also have an expensive TEK saddle for those end game players.
Congrats! You now have the perfect traveling/combat/stealth tame! The drake can be used for stealing Wyvern eggs under invisibility mode, and to escape in a pinch. Thanks for reading this ARK Guide!

They lose 1 point of food every 15 seconds, so to time how long until they start starving, multiply their current amount of food by 15 and then divide by 60 twice. This will give you the number of hours left untill the food stat reaches 0.
Equation:
((15 x food)÷60)÷60
It’s basically randall boggs from monsters inc.
MONSTER LOG
Rock Drake
Behavior: Aggressive
The Rock Drake is a cave dwelling creature in abb. They are seen scouting the area for any potential egg thieves, like you human. They can camouflage to hide in plain sight. While it’s easy for humans and dodos alike to see them, other creatures... Not so much. This makes them key for stealing other eggs such as Magmasaurs. They can also scale up walls like the scary rabid Megalaina. They can also almost fly, glide through out abbreviation. Camo plus climbing plus gilding makes a deadly creature. If you see this dragon subtype, BEWARE!
HOW TO TAME
Taming a drake is different than usual. Instead of knocking it out, you instead steal it’s eggs. I will walk you through how I did this feat of a task. On towards the egg stealing!
You will need: 1 tribemate, 1 Aberrent Spino/Megalo/Barry/Rock Drake (My human used a spino), One Megalaina/Climbing Picks, 3 full Hazard suits (I drank mushroom stew), And one cryopod.
First, head to these cords: Lat 62, Long 68. This is where you will start
Second, head down the trail. TIP: dismount your dino before touching the ground to prevent fall damage)
Third, When you arrive, Let the spino kill all the drakes
Fourth, Let the Megalaina steal the eggs
Fifth, Get out of there!
Sixth, cryo the Spino
Seventh, Climb back up the trail (Your tribemate can whistle follow for the mega to come down)
Lastly, Hatch those eggs!
HOW TO HATCH
You will need: One-who-shall-not-be-named vemon, 1 generator, 1 straight wire, 1 outlet, and 15 air conditioners.
First, place the cons in a circle
Second, add the generator, wire, and outlet
Third, fuel and turn on the generator
Fourth, drop the egg and wait for it to hatch
Lastly, Once it hatches, feed it vemon and BOOM! You got yourself a Rock Drake! Make sure to have fun with it!

Use a Doedicurus harvest nameless venom from the cave on fjordur to make raising a breeze
As of october 14th 2021 rock drakes are now breedable
Heads up:
Something sus is happening in Fjourd. These creatures spawn in the Aberrant zones dotted around the map, what’s more alarming is that there are skin coloured rocks that when harvested produce NAMELESS VENOM!!! Please can someone add to wikis or put a tab on here if you find any rock drake nests in Fjourd…
Just use egg incubator to hatch it is way cheaper than 20 ac units
up if this helped it will make my day😀
Fjordur: Nameless Venom is harvested from the yellow-oozing rocks in the Abberant cave in south Vannaland and the Rock Drakes are found in Asgard.
If you use a snow owl to heal the rock drake, you do not need the nameless venom. Just keep an eye on it as it is maturing and as the health goes down due to starvation, hit it with the owl😉
I recommend using cryopods when raising drakes, it’s slower but it’s less stressful and you don’t ruin your sleep schedule, up if this was helpful
Obtaining this creature will require you to enter the tek trench where puprle liquid and the nests of these creatures lay past the bioluminescent chamber, there you must steal an egg and raise in a cold environment feeding it nameless venom you can get by killing nameless
