ARK: Survival Ascended features the Rock Elemental as a tamable, minerals creature that survivors will encounter in the wild. It belongs to the Soaker category.

With 25,000 base Health, the Rock Elemental is an absolute bullet sponge. Its base Melee Damage sits at 100%, giving it solid damage output. Stamina sits at 300 base, providing decent staying power. Weight capacity starts at 660, giving it excellent carrying capacity.

To tame the Rock Elemental, you need to knock it unconscious using torpor weapons, then feed it while it's down. Feed it Sulfur for the fastest tame and highest effectiveness bonus.

After taming, the Rock Elemental is a practical workhorse - it can both gather and haul resources efficiently. A wild Rock Elemental is worth 50 base experience when killed. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.88 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
