ARK Genesis Magmasaur Location And Taming Guide

Get the fiery lizard dino, Magmasaur in ARK Genesis with instructions from our guide on how to tame this creature for your use

Magmasaur is a fire-based creature in Ark Genesis that acquires its strength and charges up attacks through heat. Magmasaur performs the best when in hotter climates such as lava caves, and the cold will reduce its performance.

You can use Magmasaur as a Tank, Mobile Forge, Golem Killer, Mineral Gatherer, and Boss Fighter when tamed. Because this is a fire-based creature, the saddle on Magmasaur is heat resistant. It will protect the player from heat or lava when riding.

This guide helps you harvest the powers of Magmasaur by helping you find and tame this creature in Ark Fjordur.

How to Tame Magmasaur?

The only way to tame a Magmasaur is by stealing the eggs and hatching them. As the Magmsaurs are slow-moving creatures, you can easily get their eggs, but note when you do get the egg, they will attack you with fireballs.

After you get the egg, take it back to your base and place it in front of air conditioners to hatch it. Once the baby is out, feed it meat to tame it.
