How ARK players tame and knock out the Rock Elemental: what to feed it, what to knock it out with, and how to keep it safe.

Use the formula y=(5000+100x)/1800 to figure out how many cannonballs are necessary to knock the golem out. Y is cannonballs. X is level. I suggest bringing at least 2 extra cannonballs.

If you have a level 9999 and use stone and are on 0.01 times taming it takes 80 years....

They should make the boulder throw able to knock out other rock elementals.

It's a bit silly that kibble tames it a lot better than rocks or sulfur because even in the dossier it says that it lives off of absorbing nearby rocks and minerals. So mabey they should make it so you have to feed them a rare mineral like obsidian what if they made it so…

Me: hits it with canon ball trying to nick it out

Golem: u should have aimed for the head( dies)

There is a great little natural passage that you can kite the golem in to at 64.1 - 49.9. We tame all our Golem there. They can't get out but once tamed can be moved out. It offers a great firing position for your cannon.

Don't steal someone's 190 lightning wyvern egg or expect one of these at your base.

ROCKET LAUNCHER WORKS AIM AT THE HEAD AND WAIT FOR IT TO GO UNCONSCIOUS I JUST SUCCEEDED AT TAMING ONE WITH THIS

PRO TIP: on 2x taming weekends (Evolution Events) on official servers. You can knock out a level 20 or below elemental, slap some sulfur in it, and call it a day as it will not require narcotics on 2x but WILL still take 4 hours.

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 .

If you tame it with stone you will end up taming a giagantosaurus with cooked fish meat

Use cactus broth. Sneak up to it but not to close and place metal gates around it. Then setup your Canon. Do something to it to wake it up and blow its head off

“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…

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.

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…

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…

As a reminder the cannon doesn't last forever it slowly breaks itself

These are on Fjordur they can be found in the magmasaur nest in the volcanic biome

Metal billboards!!! Use 5 (or more) billboards and trap the dang golem in one spot. Make sure you get one on each side AND through the golem.

You can set up a cannon defense wall a little ways away. 3x1 foundations across and the cannon is in the middle. Place a metal…

There are lot in the chalk cliffs in velguro

Up if this helped.
