Rock Elemental taming video guide

More about taming the Rock Elemental

The results below show total taming time, effectiveness, and bonus levels for the Rock Elemental at your selected level and food. Higher-quality foods yield more bonus levels.

The table below shows how many hits from each torpor weapon are needed to knock out the Rock Elemental at different levels. Wait between shots for torpor to tick up. Firing too fast can kill the creature before it goes down.

The table shows how many sedatives you'll need to keep the Rock Elemental unconscious through the full taming duration. Bio Toxin is twice as potent as Narcotics (80 vs 40 Torpor per use), while Narcoberries work in a pinch at just 7.5 Torpor each. At 0.33 Torpor drain per second, apply narcotics proactively - a wakeup mid-tame wastes everything.

The real-time timers below help you monitor Torpor drain and Food depletion during the tame. The torpor timer alerts you when narcotics are needed. The starve timer tracks Food depletion for starve-taming, where you let the food bar drop before placing all food at once.

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.
