Taming & KO Tips
How do I tame a rock elemental? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a rock elemental.
As a reminder the cannon doesn't last forever it slowly breaks itself
To tame it you need a cannon ball and a trap
We used 7 rocket launchers and 56 rocket missles
Knockout works best if you use a cannon
This rock elemental can be tame by chalico but not sure 100% but i tried it it work for me no mod idk if it work for u
For some reason, after the latest update, X-rock elementals (haven't checked other variants) are no longer tameable. Whenever you knock them out, they don't eat and don't have a taming bar. Forcetame also doesn't affect them, so I believe it's a glitch
The equation is actually
(5000y+100x)/1800+2y, then bring 2 eaxtra cannonballs
X is the level, and y is a single cannonball
Had to fix that
For the lava elemental kite it out of the magma springs entrance/exit knock it out and it will eat.
I think there should be a metal golem which is stronger and harder to tame. Maybe it could collect metal only and more effectively than anything else. ps. It’s just some idea I came up with in my spare time
Build 5 stone dinosaurs gates and place them beside each other they should snap... now remove the middle and drag a Golem and lead it in the middle section.. now the Golem is stuck the paracer should be holding the cannon or any KO weapon face the cannon to the Golem and start shooting its head if the Golem is aggro on the stone gates go up to it until he losses aggro and focuses on you grab a shield so it will take less damage while it throws rocks at you the Golem can't run away because the two gates are holding him... hope this work make sure to carry extra ammo for the weapon if you miss the head
Put metal dino doors (small) while it's rock and then put cannon and u r done
I was having trouble trying to ko it and found out you want to hit it for 450 dmg with the Canon not for 1800 dmg. Please up so no one goes through my pain.
If you’re looking to tame one of these, it’s probably best to use a skiff to fly it into a cage, from there use a cannon
Make sure you are not standing too close when you use the Mek. Thought the Rock Golem was doing 4k damage per rock toss but that was just me destroying my own Mek. Rip.
Gigas are Breedable but not rock golems? Why? Who thinks that these should get a movement speed buff when tamed and should be breedable. My Idea is that when you feed a large amount of metal or obsidian or a very large amounnt of stone to a mate boosted rock golem it will generate this golem soul stone and what you do is you bulid a stone structure roughly the size of a golem and drop the soul stone onto it , it will crumble and turn into a pill of rocks that will incubate and crack apart to form a fully grown rock golem.
I found three on the mountain at 80 lat 70 lon on lost island. They just look like yellower rocks when in rock form. If you are unsure look at them with spyglass. After I found a high level I ran away and set up a trap. After trapping it and placing a canon I put doorways vertical up like 6 times infront of my canon to prevent the rocks from breaking the canon.
if taming on offical MUST USE KIBBLE if u dont it will take days on stone and clay
Try kiting it into some rocks. Best way to do it is to use pillars three high so he can't get passed them maybe six or seven wide. Park your parcer about six foundations away and place two more sets of pillars behind the parcel three high to block all rocks thrown. Fire away
Tried a few ways unsuccessfully to tame these things. Ended up just using 1 metal foundation and 6x metal doorframes stacked. Just need to Agro the rock elemental u want and guide it straight at this with your cannon on the opposite side. They hold agro and when they throw their rock it breaks on the metal door frame so u never take damage. I have done 2 now it's easy and fairly cheap Build.
You can knock it out with a Tek Stryder cannon if you hit headshots.
