Easy Rock Drake Incubation

[Mr.Madhatterz]

I haven't managed to get a Rock Drake egg yet although i hear they require lots of cold? Just a thought what if someone made the hatchery around the blue mushrooms in the biolume zone and somehow got the blue shrooms to trigger the cold burst on the egg. Would it actually work to keep the temperature down? Instead of like 20 air cons.

ACs don't work but thats a good idea. I'll give it a go.

A/Cs do work.

As for the mushrooms, providing you have a way to protect yoruself from them it might work, but if you have no protection odds are you might die before the egg finishes incubating

I was thinking of building foundations around a patch and wall it off with a roof but leaving the open free to place the egg. Players could use various charge creatures or items to keep namless away from walls.

i will point out that freezing spores work thorugh floors and walls, i had to hunt around for one that was affecting me in my house. You'll need to be careful when trying to freeze the drake egg that you don't die yourself

4 S+ AC's worked for me.

Was gonna say the same Ac;s from S+ you only need 4!

3 AC units worked for my drakes! im next to the river near the starting zone constant 82F temp and 3 Ac's hatch the eggs on an open air platform

Does that mean the blue mushrooms actually work to keep it cool?

don't know, didn't try. Blue mushrooms increase your torpor so you pass out and make you freezing cold so your health drops, so i dont' stick near them. I have no clue if it counts to hatch the egg

i live in the Luminous marshes, and i needed 25-30 A/Cs for my drake to get it cold enough to hatch

Ahhh ok, wouldn't a hazard suit protect you? if not fair enough :P

Just confirmed that the blue(freezing) Mushrooms do not work. Damn near killed me trying it out.

we appreciate your contribution to science
it kinda makes sense that it wouldnt either

yea for incubating a rock drake egg is the exact opposite of a wyverns egg where instead of high heat u need to make the area pretty much very cold with the only answer being having to make a lot of AC's just to get the incubation going

you need like 1500 hyperthermal
