How do I kill a rock drake? rock drake battling strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Pls add to crystal isles as well
I've tried to get eggs with a managarmr with 4200 Stam and with the mushroom brew (alot of them and they don't stack) its a breeze to get to the eggs, but getting back out of the radiation zone without killing the mana is hard. If you're gonna use a mana for this, level up Stam to 5k+ atleast. Good luck
Haven’t seen a tip on this yet: on Aberration, follow the metal spine in order to get to the path which leads down to the rock drake nest.
Alternatively you can drop down all the way and dismount, but it isn’t easy to find your way back, especially if you aren’t familiar with the map. I dropped down to the huge fossil, and I had a lot of trouble getting back. Needed to use my ravager and shoot zip lines around the place to get back. Not ideal.
2-3 pairs of hazard suits. Even dropping down, don’t bring just one. Only grab one drake egg for your first expedition if it is a hassle getting more eggs. It’s much easier once you get your first drake raised. Grab 85 red gems on your way home too. For the drake saddle.
You need a crazy amount of ACs to hatch drake eggs. Like 20. Breed and level a ravager for weight, use an anky with a cryopod or pick, and harvest the blue rocks in the bioluminescent zone. Plenty of metal there. Tek creatures cover electronics but if you’re on ascended, I know that the little pond area outside the portal by the cave has trilobites and I think silica pearls too.
In the rock drake cave in Fjordur the drakes give a lot of eggs. I got 12 eggs in one go from them.
I have a question,If Valguro has an Abberation cave,Then why isn't it there,And why does crystal Ilse not have a little bit of all the dlcs due to it having almost all the engrams?
Rock drakes usally live in there caves
So when stealing eggs for some reason drakes are glitched in the wall so you'lltake the egg and a drake will too out of the wall right next to the nest you are on
They aren’t weaker than a wild rex they just happen to have slower dps.
Once you still an egg be aware that every Rock Drake in the area will come after you so make sure you have good armour and weapons!
When searching for drake eggs in cave be cautious, using a reaper king or rock drake would be best, Leaving a tamed spino at entrance of cave relatively close so you can bait any rock drakes towards it to help kill any threats. Happy taming
Only the big, brave, and strong can obtain a rock drake
Found along edge not sure where but I’ve searched in the middle and haven’t found one.
I’m thinking there should be a few variants like the wyverns as you have Fire Ice Lightning And Poison
Like an Ice Drake that spawns during the megapiticus
Just get a fast creature when you see a rock drake make a distraction eg have a spino attack it and just yoink the egg if there is one if not move on
Me and my 2 other friends went in through the cave In asgard. Since we have Andrewsarchus’s with saddles we didn’t take damage from the radiation. But the andrewsarshus’s did. after killing all the rock drakes we stole all the eggs and the best ones we got where a 180 and 2 170s
Group up on them with multiple drakes (2+) tbat way if your drakes are high enough health and high melee you can easily take them out and get the eggs free of harm
Ok guys listen thier a glitch on florner we’re their egg is allwas too hot whatch out
To get the most eggs inslave someone has to get the egg and raise it for you. Just imprint it then.
All way bring a Dino with lots of health so it dose not die
Make sure you have protection when getting a egg
Make it fast to because u can get away for ok them and they loose agro on you
