BaldBudgie Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 I wanna take on rockwell with the classic tactic. Shooting his tentacles from the back of a drake and have a pack of dinos beating on him whenever he pass out. My question is, do the dinos standing on the bridge dmging rockwell, take any damage at all or could i go all dmg on those dinos? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vaculity Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 They will still take damage against orbs, nameless and reaper kings while on the bridge where you can normally hit rockwell with melee once its down, but they are well out of range for the tentacles to do anything to it. But they can't hit Rockwell unless its down (and they'll still attack it anyways given the command to.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've tried it a couple of times now and haven't seen any reaper kings or nameless on the btidge. Are you sure they go down there when no players are around?

They don't "exactly spawn" on the bridge at certain health bar of rockwell, but will run towards there... if there are creatures, since they only appear to chase you all down.

Tbh i was scared as hell tough and mostly focused on his electric tentacles. But my impression was that no reapers or nameless ran their way, they were more interested in me. Might cheat a bit and check it out later and report back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaldBudgie Posted September 15, 2018 Author Share Posted September 15, 2018 The dinos on the bridge do take damage. But it seems the damage only happend when i was around. By the balls chasing me and nameless that spawned when i got near the bridge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poorMankind Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 I don't see the benefit of having dinos on bridge only to Damage rockwell in downstate Phase. While he is downed, there is plenty of time to deal damage till he submerges. We even use this state for short Brakes, like reloading, killing Reapers & Nameless or regroup. I would rather use them to offtank/kill spawn or Position them at one tentacle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there only a certain amount of reapers thats gonna spawn since you wanna take the time to kill them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They only spawn a certain amount at a time, but will keep spawning again after a while's wait from the last spawn (even shorter when all the wild reaper king died... one literally reappeared after all of them died). 10 hours ago, BaldBudgie said: The dinos on the bridge do take damage.

They were easily killed by the element Reaper Kings (and others) even without charge light... and I was literally running all around the entire map with some balls still after me while others homing at them, and they were at the bridge as well.

Didnt notice any balls homing at them. Maybe i got lucky. It might just be best to have some tanks around distracting some of the reapers like #poorManKind says. Never done rockwell legit, but it seems impossible, solo, to concentrate on tentacles when all that stuff is chasing you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is actually possible even if its really difficult to multitask solo, if you know what you are doing. Balls are like explosive; they set off a chain reaction when one is exploded nearby. You just need to aim for that sweet spot when too many are clumped on you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
