Aureliax is tamed through a unique egg-gifting ritual. Approach a wild Aureliax and mount it directly - shoulder pets and companions must be unequipped or the taming prompt won't appear. Using a fast mount like a Managarmr to clear nearby threats and a Rare Flower to lure the Aureliax closer to the ground is recommended. Once mounted, the Aureliax requests specific gifts such as a Bow or Metal Pick (any quality works). After receiving a gift you'll be dismounted mid-air, so equip Tek Boots or carry Parachutes to survive the fall. The Aureliax then transforms into an egg that slowly drifts to the ground. Staying near the landed egg triggers a five-wave defense event similar to an Element Node defense. Each wave spawns Neophytes marked as "Aureliax Defense." Neophytes resist tamed creature damage, so bring high-damage weapons like a Pump-Action Shotgun or Fabricated Crossbow along with Flak Armor. After clearing all five waves the egg becomes claimable. Raise it like any carnivorous baby to finish the tame.
