Kodking194 Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 me and my friend just finished breeding ten velanosuars to d drops and veins with. I have a few questions 1. can you build turrets around the veins or drops(not inside shield but around it) 2. can your tamed dinos destroy element veins 3. can yuty fear raw corrupt creatures in events (I know they can fear raw normal corrupt dinos) 4. what would be a good flyer owls ,argents dimorphs, ice drakes ,wyverns, tapjars, pteranodons 5. is there a certain amount of creatures allowed in on event. as we are on single player what would be some good tips. we may invite one or to friends but still. 6. would gigas be a good idea 7. if you can build in force field would it be a good idea to build a metal wall around drop to stop tames rom harming it.

DMSO Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 yes, but useless, pnly 10% dmg yes idk, but probably yes owl is good to heal your dinos up between waves, just leave a single hostile of the last wave, heal up as far as possible and then kill it, other than that... maybe teksaddle tape? not that i know of yes, but care, they have a wide attack range and can destroy little veins building spikes works, metal walls is probably too expensive, they get destroyed real quick by higher dinos (spinos and so on) and are not needed for lower waves (dilos or similar) tips: blue drop and 10k vein are literally easymode, you can probably do them with a shotgun, the drop spawns lvl1-50 dilos, raptors, pteras and stegos, the vein is a bit higher in lvl, thats it you can easily do a 25k vein and a yellow drop with a single giga (wildtame 75+) and a 50 armor saddle solo, maybe bring an owl to heal up a bit for reddrops i would bring 2 gigas + yuty or sth, just to be safe, same for the 50k vein, the problem is there is a little chance that a corrupted giga can spawn, if that happens, just run dont do purple drops or 100k veins if you have to ask starter questions^^ not even go near them most of the time the attacking dinos will follow 3-4 paths leading to the vein/OSD, you can "block" those with spikes, they are pretty cost-efficient, you still have to kill them, but they dont get to the veins that easily Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enraged trike or Rex will insta rage it. Lost 2 250 gigas on 1 drop due to this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olivar Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 Quote 3. can yuty fear raw corrupt creatures in events (I know they can fear raw normal corrupt dinos) Yes, Yuty's can fear the smaller creatures away from the drop/vein for a few seconds. Usually handy to deal with the bigger threat first and then pick of the small ones as they come scurrying back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kodking194 Posted December 3, 2018 Author Share Posted December 3, 2018 Yeah I have one fear raw another courage then ten rexes and five maxed out bred velanosuara and three owls and argents and wyverns As backups Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MirageUK Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 Red / Purple drops we do using 3-4 man team on grown, mate boosted and fully imprinted Gigas. Yellow and below a single Giga. 10/25k veins - AFK with my Giga and watch my dimorph army shred the enemies only getting involved myself when spinos/paracer/rex come in packs to drop them quickly before the AOE hits too many of my dimorphs. 50k vein.. took out over 60 dimorphs.. lost the LOT and the vein before clearing the end of wave 4. Cleared up the Wyverns with my Giga before limping back home. Might try some spike walls next time to limit the paths they can come at me from so I don't end up as surrounded but in all honesty probably gonna be avoiding 50k veins if I'm out solo. The trouble I had defending veins is my mount would also destroy the veins - so the dimorphs on aggressive seem to only attack enemies and leave the veins alone.

I have completed Blue, Yellow and 2 Red OSD's and a couple of Element veins on a Single Velon. I am not sure if it is due to the server I play on being boosted or not. I have bred this velon with 100% imprint and have it at 10K Health, 30K Stam, 4000% Dmg, 340% speed. I have yet to run out of stamina and primarily use the swing (Left trigger(Xbox) to clear all the dino's. I personal dislike the Blue and Yellow OSD's as I end up hunting for the last 1-2 dino's as they seem to have ADHD when it comes to the OSD. The Red seems to have an easier time, granted there are a lot of higher level (bigger) dino's . Like I said, it may be due to the boosted server, but a well leveled Velon is a beast. At least in my opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kodking194 Posted December 3, 2018 Author Share Posted December 3, 2018 my velon is great. one pin does 10k damage but our single player world is godly boosted. it has 50k health, and I think 40k stam this is off top of my head.c he also has cyan overtop and a red under belly looks so cool.

The Red seems to have an easier time, granted there are a lot of higher level (bigger) dino's . Like I said, it may be due to the boosted server, but a well leveled Velon is a beast. At least in my opinion Looks like your server has a 12x imprint bonus multiplier. (Easy to tell based on the movement speed you get from 100% imprint). A 1x (official) is +20% movement speed. Your server seems to have +240%, so 12x (240/12 = 20). This makes bred/imprinted dinos absurdly stronger than they already are. If you bred a giga and fully imprinted on it, you would be around 250k health with a 12x imprint bonus and doing about 10-12k/bite if the parents offered around 250% melee damage post-tame. *edit* To the OP, others have addressed it, but bred gigas (if you have the time), bred velonasaurs, bred rexes, etc.. are all quite capable for red drops. You will want decent saddles for them, though, as the numbers quickly can overwhelm you. Having a yuty there to buff/debuff is huge, if possible. Having an owl to heal between waves can make or break a red drop. I have done several with bred gigas and never ran into a situation where I even came close to raging, but at the same time, the enraged trikes/rexes were priority targets when they came, and I took them out before they had time to do much. I'm also running around on an asc saddle on my gigas, so there's that... (side bar: This is the first map where I see a REAL benefit to having Gigas for PvE). Try to mate boost every dino you have, if possible. It makes a huge difference. Finally, if you're on a private server with a clustered aberration server, Reapers take a massive steaming dump on red drops, but you'll still take a hefty amount of damage in the later waves. Someone mentioned avoiding purple drops if you're having to ask starter questions, to that end, I say, try it. After 3 waves, you can stop the drop when you're comfortable, as long as the current wave is done. If, after 3 waves, you don't feel comfortable continuing, just end the defense and collect what loot it gives you. They do get progressively harder as they go on, though, so if wave 3 is even a little bit tough, end the drop for the rest of the server's sake.

I can't deny velos are good but that is an overwhelmingly excessive increase in stats, any dino boosted that high will do well and it's not representative of the difficulty lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MirageUK Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 It wasn't easy by any means and we only did 6 rounds - told it to end at round 5 but it already started 6th so we had to stick around and clear them too before ejecting the loot. Our Gigas are beasts though - hitting for over 2k solo with imprint... over 2.5k mate boosted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MirageUK Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 Guess we were lucky - or unlucky this time as tried another purple tonight - taking Velonas this time to assist. Ended up laggin sooo bad we lost our Gigas and the Velonas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vaculity Posted December 9, 2018 Share Posted December 9, 2018 IF I am going to put up something. A lot of the tribes have been cloning gigas like no tommorrow. I kept wondering if they intend to use giga as "an army" against the corrupts in osd. Its like this: To those who are cloning or breeding Giga, they think that Giga > everything else, no exception, especially with imprinted ones. They think they can conquer Purple drops with mostly just gigas, imprinted in mass (I am not talking about them cloning bred giga, but tamed ones rather) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to mention, they are fast and agile enough to escape if it goes wrong. Gigas are screwed if they get piled up on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And same goes for all the tribe that are constantly cloning giga. Meks cannot level, giga can. Mek can move high, giga cannot. Giga does more damage than mek. Giga don't need osd hunt for bp, mek does. And people would rather waste their time raising giga for a week or so with cryopod than hunting red or purple drops for decent blueprint only to return in disappointment. Not to mention the amount of element mek has to go through per drop run where giga don't have to worry about. At the end of the day. Bred giga still beat mek regardless of its module attached. Unfortunately. I'd you like to try to convince them if you think what I said is wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MirageUK Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 Yeah it's not a problem as we have spare eggs and will continue to try for further mutations whilst our next batch are grown - should be fully matured by the time we get home this evening after hatching approx. 2am Sunday morning - boosted rates on breeding @ 10x Wouldn't mind but since we've had no Gigas to have another go we've seen LOADS of local purple drops teasing us - waited hours for the one that destroyed us Saturday night.

Rhinenorr Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 Got to wave 10 on a purple drop using frost and forest titans. Also had 3 gigas but they almost died every wave, gotta heal in between. Loot was decent. 1 good bp and 150 metal structures. Can't see it being done without titans and not losing tames. Or prepping with so much supplies your prep out weighs the rewards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
