Tips & Strategies
Everyone forgets to mention that in the drake cave you will get radiation poisoning and fast so before going in I would consider crafting some hazmat gear
These will climb cliffs, jump at you if you’re in the air and in range. Look for the distortion of the cloaked “ability they have. They sometimes have a tendency to be found in the upper levels as well
A great way to get eggs is with a blood stalker (I got 15 in one run)
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.
Why aren’t these in Rockwell’s innards in gen 2? I feel like they would make a great addition to gen 2. Like so maybe developers can see this
Rather than looking at the various tips on food loss per time, start a timer and stop it when 5 food is lost, then divide by 5 for an average. Every rock Drake is different, I raised 4 at same time with different timers.
You can use dimetrodons to help hatch so you don’t have to use as much ac units.
You can't tame a Rock Drake by knocking it unconscious. You need to find their glowing nesting caverns and steal one of their eggs to hatch your very own Rock Drake.
I highly recommend getting a Desmodus to steal Rock Drake eggs from Fjordur. At night you can fly in while invisible and land next to a nest without any aggro. Once you get an egg, in can quickly fly out of the cave again!
Easiest way to get a Rock Drake:
On Fjordur, go to Asgard
Look for the purple/pink trees
There should be a cave on the edge of the Aberrant forest
(You would need a hazard suit)
Bring any hard-hitting dino
(Even a Rex can fit into the cave)
Clear the cave and collect the eggs
The cave is flat and the ceiling is low so you wouldn’t need to climb
Nameless venom can be found the the aberrant cave on Fjordur (56.5 84.6)
There are orange and black rocks around the cave
(Bring a strong dino cause there are Drakes and Karinos)
One nameless should be enough for a drake
Remember Drake eggs need to be VERY cold
Me and my group of three friends will be attempting to steal three eggs from these fellows using 6 spinos ( 4 are fully imprinted) 3 hazard suits a riot shield each and 10 climbing picks. And obviously wing suits
Wish us luck!

It's quite easy if you know how to do it. First, get a decent megalosaurus or spino (I used a wild tamed meg with 382% damage), you can easily get to the trench from the element falls. Then, pick ONE egg that you are targeting. Kill the rock drakes around it. Make Zipline paths to that one nest and grab the egg. Zipline back to your mount and run. If a rock drake attacks you before you are on the zipline, use an apprentice or higher shotgun to kill it. Good luck survivor! Enjoy your rock drake!
Use the andrewsarchus to get the egg the (turret) saddle protects you from any radiation so you dont need a hazard suit!!!
Rock Drake = BA
Can camouflage and gets a buff to kill the reaper king and queen
The easiest way to get and egg is to find someone taking a basilisk.
This creature is very handy because if it’s abilities here are them all:
1(with tek saddle) shoot bullets out off its armor
2 invisibility makes the creatures texture look like glass and makes it hard to see(tip go stang right next to something otherwise it wil be blurry and you will be spotted very fast
3 glide jump while running makes you fly but you can fly infinite it’s like a glider or elytra from Minecraft
4 acceleration glide when gliding gain some speed eventually you wil discover a crosshair in the middle of your screen if you bite when this happens you will shoot with high speed into the crosshairs direction
5 bite when you press LT or lmb you will perform a short range attack dealing big damage
6 climbing press rt to activate climb mode what makes you climb anything
