If you see a rock 🪨 fall frome the sky it was a golem spawning so be carefull ! Hope this was help full

“Ahh what a nice day to mine a rock” Little does this poor soul know… this rock is sentient. This rock is the rock elemental, it has many other names, like rock golem, rock monster, and so on. If you know what they look like, they’re really easy to avoid. Or if you want to avoid them all together these maps have rock elementals: Scorched earth, Crystal isles, Valguero, Ragnorak, Lost island, and extinction.
What do they look like? They look like your local chad, except enlarge him about the size of a Giga, and cover him with rocks. (Don’t do that) so how do you tame him? It’s a pretty simple tame, but very expensive. Grab a cannon and cannonballs from your local medieval fortress, or if your a square, just make one. Make a few extra cannonballs just to be safe. And look for rocks that look abnormal to their environment, they usually take the form of large grey slate rocks. Get its attention, get it stuck underneath a overhang, place ur cannon and blow his face to next year. It’s ok if you miss one or twice, their torpor goes down clocking in at snail speed. MAKE SURE YOU HIT ITS FACE if you don’t the count doesn’t count. When it knocks out, feed it kibble, or if you have all the time in the world and don’t care about the level, feed it stone, sulphur, or clay.
What’s the purpose of taming this guy. Apart from it looking cool, it’s your #1 soaker right there. Wanna raid a base in pvp but it has a lot of turrets? Introduce it to your rock friend :D ride your golem, and when the turrets start aiming at you, turn around, and look down. This protects you entirely from turret fire, unless it’s all around you. Is that it? Nope they also classify as a sentient catapault, they throw huge rocks! Not convinced? They have a lot of health, and are decently fast. So anyways if you are planning to raid a well defended base? Bring a couple of these guys! Thanks for reading!
A Thylacoleo can easily cause bleed on a rock golem and kill it. Tame lvl 25. Leveled up to 70. Killed up to lvl 4 rock golems pretty easy with bleed effect.
REX & TAPEJARA TEK SADDLES CAN EFFECTIVELY KILL ROCK GOLEMS UPDOOT SO BOBS AND NOT BOBS KNOW HOW TO KILL THES E DOUCHEBAGS
You can use the MEK CANNON to almost instantly torp it out get a tribe mate on a owl to get the attention and then fire! We tamed a 150 today and it took two shots .
Don’t get them mixed up with a rock.
What will happen will not be good
Hi, Looking to try to tame one of these? Great idea! In this tip is what I would recommend bringing, it’s entirely your choice what you want to use! :D Now, the first thing to pack is a cannon and at least 50 cannonballs (I suggest bringing an extra cannon!) Next simply a foundation of any type, as the first thing the rock golem will hit is the cannon, whatever is underneath it is safe! And finnaly taming food! This would normally be where I state the narcotics needed, but this creatures torpor would take days just to wake up! I’m pretty sure they like extraordinary kibble! And I would recommend bringing kibble, as taming it with anything else could take days! And this one is optional but I would also recommend bringing at least 5 metal gateways for a trap! Now that your all ready (assuming you packed armor and regularly used weapons of your choice) for the knockout process! These guys are disguised as rocks, they are very easy to distinguish because of the way off in color of its disguise, compared to the natural rock formations around it, it will also if you have a spyglass confirm whether it’s a rock golem or not! Ghillie is recommended if you plan to trap it! Equip ghillie and go prone, now you are basically invisible to the golem, you can safely place the metal gates arround it with ease! Once complete feel free to get up and walk around! Next place the foundation and the cannon far enough away to where it can’t hit it, (other than the rock throw) and to the point where you can shoot it easily! Now VERY carefully shoot for the head of the golem, as the closer to the middle of the face you get, the less damage the golem will take, and the more torpor it will gain! Missing after a confirmed headshot is completely fine, as it will take hours for the torpor inflicted with one cannon ball to completely drain so take your time and cleanly make your shots! This knockout process is optional if you have something else in mind feel free to give it a shot! Once it’s finnaly unconscious (witch I would consider a feat in and of itself) it’s time to start the taming process, it’s just one step then wait for it to tame, just put the kibble in its inventory and go do something else until it tames! Now you have yourself a sturdy and tanky tame! Here’s some info on what they are commonly used for; Pvp In this game mode this is a GREAT and effective way of soaking turret damage, also in this case they are a walking catapult, they can throw rocks and do about the same dmg as a catapult! Pve, great base defenders as they can like in pvp, soak a lot of dmg before needing to heal! If encumbered it will use its rock throw unless close enough range to use it’s melee attacks! This guy eats stone or other natural minerals, crystals, obsidian, metal, Etc. I hope this tip helped, happy taming, and Take care!!
Rock Elementals hate spike walls. They will get stuck on them and destroy your entire base.
You have to hit it in the head to knock it out... or you'll end up with a dead lvl 145 after wasting 20 cannon balls.
Get a Pteranodon then make his following distance on highest then aggro a Rock Elemental, fly high enough so he cant damage the Pteranodon and jump down the pteranodon and use parachute.
Now place the Cannon, make the right settings and shoot on the head of the rock elemental.
The Rock Elemental will do nothing because he is aggro on the Pteranodon.
These are on Fjordur they can be found in the magmasaur nest in the volcanic biome
