Taming & KO Tips
How do I tame a rock drake? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a rock drake.
When your imprinting on a rock Drake and they have something you can't do, use a cryo pod to pick it up then put it back down, and then it should have changed it's need. Hope this helps
You have to feed it nameless venom for the baby’s but there so fun to use
I took 2 hazmat suits 2 gliders 2 zip line motors 20 zip line and almost didn't make it out. Grab red Crystal when you're down their you'll need 100 for the saddle
You can use stimberries and a snow owl to raise babies just keep torp down and health up
Use a Doedicurus harvest nameless venom from the cave on fjordur to make raising a breeze
It worked! Me and my friends managed to steal 6 drake eggs and we only lost two spinos! -Tairrow bird
It took me and my friend only 7 air conditioners and a dimetrodon to hatch the egg so that is definitely a very effective strategy
They shouldn’t be in Val because rock drakes are a big part of ab and it would make it virtually useless since reapers are now in gen
If your able to cross arks tame a daedon and you won't need nameless venom as long as you keep the daedon fed and healing the drake
Another way to do the math for food stat loss when raising rockdrakes. They lose 1food per 15 seconds. you lose 4 food every minute. (My advice go up to 5 if your paranoid like me and get Arked. 60mins x 4food = 240, (240 is the total food stat loss per hour.)
Now take your total food stat and ÷ by 240, and you will have a correct time as well.
ULTIMATE ATE GUIDE TO ROCK DRAKES ON ABERRATION
GETTING AN EGG
To get the egg on foot you will need this list:
You: hazmat suits(3) 15-20 climbing picks, pump shotgun or some other weapon, two cross bows with zips and grapples, and finally, one glide suit and one light pet
Tribemate to sacrifice: climbing picks(3) 2 hazmat suits, a weapon to kill drakes, and a weak light pet( it will die)
STRATEGY
This is a fairly straightforward strat, get in by gliding, set up multiple escape routes off of the nest, grab the egg and go. Once you are out have your tribemate start attacking the drakes to distract them. Climb/glide/run AS FAST AS YOU CAN and get out of there, once at a safe distance uncryo a megalo(that’s what I did) and go back to your base. You could also walk out of the red zone, but megalo/spino is easier.
HATCHING THE EGG
Now that you have an egg you can hatch it, but, it only eats nameless venom and takes about twenty air cons to hatch, or a ton of dimetrodons or a ton of otters. When hatched feed nameless venom and remember to grab some red gems for the saddle!
Hope this helped
Have a nice day!😛
Manas are prolly the easiest way to get eggs if u breed for a fast one it’s super easy make sure it has a good amount of health tho cus the radiation does get annoying it won’t kill u but you can never be too safe
Use a andrewsarchus so you don’t take any rad damage on fjordur map.But I rather you have your andrew health at about 15k BUT USE THE SADDLE!!!
41.8 49.2 Go to asgard. (Hold down R to access realms) it's in the purple forest (which is home to shadowmanes) There radiation so don't die please
Up if useful
It took me roughly 2 hours to (cautiously) do the rock drake walk on a 212 Megalo (used 3 radiation suits). Using the rock drake from the first egg I found, a level 60 egg, I got another two eggs in roughly 12 minutes, round trip. Definitely get whatever egg you can first, then go back for better levels later.
After my egg hatch I got twins I didn’t know it was a possibility but it is so keep that in mind
You can use egg incubators instead of a billion air cons, though the preferred temperature of the rock drake eggs are -85.0, you can adjust the temperature of it by holding for options and going to temperature control.
Raise your rock drakes on fjordur, there's easy access to nameless venom rocks in a small ab cave. Use an axe or a doedicurus
On fjordur, me and my friend used two andrewsarchus’. Both had a minimum of 20k health and 500 melee. We lost half health each but killed every last one and stole every egg.
These are now in the new map (which I can’t spell)
probably easier to tame too
