Taming & KO Tips
How do I tame a rock drake? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a rock drake.
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😉
The best route to their nests is by dropping down a huge ciff located at the blue zone (very close to the green zone) that leads you straight into the element chamber. After that you just gotta follow the path to your left. Im pretty confident that if you do this strat you cant run into any reapers, at least I never encountered one.
Hop on Genesis 2 to get the free tek armor from there.
Then travel to Aberration this suit works as a unbreakable hazmat armor and can be charged freely in the element water in the red zone (fully charge it you can See the percentage on the armor in your inventory).
Now you can just fly into the rock drake cavern while pressing sprint and controle grab an egg and just fly back out there you go you have your first egg.
DO NOT USE 1 POUNT IF FOOD EVERY 15 SECONDS IN YOUR EQUATIONS (for raising rock drakes) I’ve seen many comments that say this but i have tested it and the babies lose 1 point of food every 10 seconds! If you assume it as 15 seconds your baby will likely die!
So they made wyvern breedable November 7
So just release TLC update 4 and Have the rock drakes breedable and add tek Rockdrake
On Fjordur use doedi in abberant cave to harvest these orange stones…
Bring good tame to clear the cave
Hope this helped 😁
You have to steal an egg like a wyvern. I used a lot of ziplines and a high level ravager to get down there, used the pick to climb up to an egg and ran. The drakes nearby WILL aggro on you. I got on my ravager and ran away on the ziplines. Make sure you have a hazat syit to protect you since there is radiation down there.
To raise a baby i use maewing feeding option, it worked for me!!
It seems there's a bug that rapidly respawns the eggs pretty much as soon as you pick them up, I ran around in circles picking up eggs and got like 10 180 - 175 eggs I learned this in the drake cave on Asgard but it might work on others.
If you are not that good at game you can always just log off when you get the egg so they lose agro
USE THE DESMODUS SCREECH TO LOCATE THEM IT HELPS A LOT I PROMISE!

I got six with an andrewsarcus
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.
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!

Use the andrewsarchus to get the egg the (turret) saddle protects you from any radiation so you dont need a hazard suit!!!
