Drakeling
Found across 20 maps in mountains, cliffsides, and elevated terrain. Green zones have the highest spawn density. Each species has a population cap per area, so wiping out other creatures nearby can trigger new Drakeling spawns.
Found throughout the ARKs, the Drakeling is a tamable, flying, carnivore creature in ARK: Survival Ascended. It falls within the Ignore classification.
Starting at 150 Health, it's on the squishy side. With 100% base Melee Damage, the Drakeling has solid damage output. Stamina sits at 150 base, providing moderate endurance. Weight capacity starts at 65, giving it very limited carrying capacity.
This is a passive tame: no tranquilizers needed. Get close without startling it, then offer food from your last hotbar slot. Its preferred food is Exceptional Kibble.
As a tame, the Drakeling is a versatile flyer useful for scouting, traversal, and light transport. It reproduces by laying eggs, which must be incubated between 17°C and 20°C. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.28 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
