Doing Orbital supply drops solo.

[KippenKaasBaas]

The new Ragnarok Plus mod adds Orbital supply drops in Ragnarok. I'm trying to find the best way to do them solo.

I just tried a yellow one with a group of 20 high level Direwolfs. I was riding a Velonasaur to shoot down the Wyverns. The first few waves went well, but when the corrupted Rexes came they all got slaughtered...

Since you can take any kind of creature to defend the drop, I was thinking of trying it with Golems. But they are very hard to tame and can't be bred.
Or maybe just plain old Rexes?

So any advice from experienced solo players on how to defend these things?

Would a platform saddle with turrets work?

That would be awesome!

Do you happen to have the S+ or SS mod? If so, Quetz + Tek Shield = easy legendary OSDs. All dinos usually focus only on the drop, which they can't get to and then they can be picked off quite easily.

For a while.

The issue is corrupted creatures can damage any structure so the wyvern will get your platform at higher difficulties. not to mention the spino/rexes/paracers

You could also try adding an extra layer of protection and place a TEK Force field right next to the Supply Drop. You really only need it on smallest radius to save time and energy. Corrupted Creatures can damage force fields, but it could buy you some valuable time. Maybe bring some back ups just in case.
But yeah, as said before, rexes and gigas are your best bet. Be sure they're well bred.

Do the Corrupted attack the S+/SS variant of the force field?

Will try this. Thanks.

Can confirm Tek shield makes purple OSDs a cake walk.

Put a couple velos inside on turrent to force wyverns to land, sometimes they can glitch through the shield.

Put down a Tek leash and place a Tek or metal foundation on top of it.

Bring a yuty in case a reaper gets stuck underground, the screams force them to pop out.

Gigas work best, but rexes will do it as well if they are bred enough.

Bad idea, Corrupteds absolutely doze through bullets and receive very little damage.

Update. Just did a red orbital supply drop. Used a team of 20 high level HP bred rexes. 17 of them survived so only 3 losses. The 17 that did survive leveled like crazy so It'll be even easier next time. I used a Velonasaur to shoot down the Wyverns and get them to land. But I think a mana would be better for this? The Velonasaur needs to shoot soooo many times before it knocks them out of the sky.

How do you do OSD with a group of dinos? Don't they deal a damage to OSD?
