Taming & KO Tips

How do I tame a rock elemental? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a rock elemental.
Be sure to take 5-6 more cannon balls than it says. We got lucky, 140 knocked on the last ball and it says we should only need 11 but we used 15
Aim for the head !!!!!
Do not bring homing rockets. They don't lock onto heads. So you miss the bonus and likely kill a 150 like I did...
HELP!! Does anyone know a way to make it so it knocks out without the reduced effectiveness?
Stick these fuckers outside a water cave and nobody is getting in
Be careful when taming, if you have to lead it to a taming pen far away, don't leave to get more supplies because it will despawn when you leave render distance
Get a flyer go to behavior go to put it on passive go to behavior again put targeting range on its lowest behavior again change the follow distance to its highest and whistle follow find one of these agro it fly a distance in front of it it will get distracted with the flyer place your foundation shoot it with a cannon in the head knock it out and boom you got yourself a golem
When the rock golem gets tamed it loses 22000 health the base health of a tamed golem is 3000 there was a tip that said this was a typo but it isn’t
I raged so hard but I tamed it with 5x taming rates with clay and 1 clay was about 1%
Get a griffin just in front of it’s face so it doesn’t hit you then get a friend to shoot it with cannon balls
Ok so some people have trouble taming this but I know the best way. Get a pt eny lev will do. Go to a rock golem fly where it can't hit you and can't throgh rocks at you and hit you hop off and it should be focused on the pt and jest set up the cannon alottle ways frome it so it doesn't agro to you and pelt it's head with cannon balls bam ez tame
When attempting to knock it out, create a four by four by four metal structure it’s a metal gate on one side. Position a cannon as far in the back as you can. Make sure that you have a cross section across the gate so that the golem can’t hit you with boulders. Ready! Aim! Fire!!!!
If you have a quest then make the golem agro it but have it right above it so the golem doesn't move then just knock him with the cannon
If you find yourself in a place where you want to tame one but cant build a trap try flying up to high space or shoot off a tapejara (if you can't fire rocket launcher off a tapejara please correct me) if need you can also lure it to a trap built near by.
New kibble isn't working to tame or mantis kibble.
If you are able to afford a mek with the cannon attachment. Stay a good distance away from the golem but enough distance so you can shoot it. Make sure you aim for the head and not the body because if you want it to have torpor you will have to hit the head. So then fire the rocket with the mek and enjoy your golem😎
For me this creature has 950 health
I cannonballed it in the head, two times used rocks cause I didn't have the right kibble ended up getting a army of 20 wyverns
When taming if your established make a metal trap with a metal behe gate to drag it into. Measure out 8 metal foundations away from the trap and place cannon. Trap should be a minimum of 4 metal walls high in the middle of the non behe gate side there should be a doorframe with door. This is important. If built right it will prevent you getting killed and the cannon ball from doing additional damage and ruining the game on the last shot. I wish I could submit screenshots on here. The non gated side of the trap should have the cannon.
Tip
Get anything that can fly and build so animals vehicles put cannons or rocket turrets or just a mek with a scholder cannon and start blasten
