ActionJax Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 PS4 So I know Im probably gonna get hammered for this, and sort of a noob question... My 9 year old was so excited after finally taking on the Broodmother (SP) and it was the "Easy" variant. However when he killed her he received his trophy and flag. No element! I think its 10 element you get after looting her but never saw the triangle-access inventory. So, I went back and defeated her again for him (Im really starting to love this game)...same thing! I know its only a moment before you are respawned but am I missing something? Do I need to chop her up til she diappears? Appreciate any advice, thanks!

ActionJax Posted February 16, 2017 Author Share Posted February 16, 2017 Thanks! Appreciate it guys. We brought 3 rexes in but neither of them had it I did check that. He will be happy to face her again after school then! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jostabeere Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 I love the fact that people cried about the Broodmother being impossible, and here we have a 9 year old boy defeating it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I have always been into sports games and racing games. But he really wanted this game and earned it at school. Its a little complex so I help him here and there. Read about it and share it with him. He was nervous to take her on, he lost his first tamed Rex to her, but she fell down the side and got caught. So the other rexes swarmed her and he just kept pumping lead (ingots) in her. I felt bad when he didnt get his element reward... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Layton Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Somehow, I doubt it was on an official server with standard rates. Unofficial or solo play should not be counted, as they are able to be manipulated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By your logic no kills should count. Ever. Because you can hack and cheat and dupe on Officials. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Layton Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Correct. In unofficial, or solo play, none should count. I did not use Game Genie either. If you are too young to know what that is, check it out. Same reason. I already stated, a level one billion compy can defeat the broodmother. Easily.

Layton Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Nope. Not at all. You said what you said. Then altered it. Stand by what you said, don't change it because you realized what you said was incorrect. Editing shows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will be sure to let him know that @Layton from the Ark Forums is not "counting" his Broodmother victory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Layton Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 Not just me. I'm absolutely sure a nine year old could win against a Broodmother with official rates. This is the problem with this generation. Handed everything and they complain that it is not enough. Pretty sure your kid did not breed the rexes and find the saddle BP with high enough armor to succeed. Don't lie to kids. Or they end up being a self entitled weirdo.

ActionJax Posted February 18, 2017 Author Share Posted February 18, 2017 I coach 3rd and 4th graders. I have two children. I played sports my whole life nothing is given. My son earns everything he gets. And if you read correctly he earned this game by doing well in school/sports (you know real life goals). If I want my son to enjoy the game on a proper difficulty setting thats challenging to him and not up with the Jones's that play all day while he is in school and write on forums about generational issues. I will. Dont you worry not everyone gets a medal in my world big guy. He lost many times and like I said I help him with certain things that are hard.
