Hi Nooblets, you can place your cannon into a tent, so after you finish using it, you can simply pick up the tent, and your cannon will return to you without demolish it.
taming effectiveness only gets lowered if the last shot does the double damage, none of the others. its the same mechanics that lower effectiveness if a koed tamed gets damaged
@@NOOBLETS woooooooowww you responded♥️ hahaha! It's just unpractical in my opinion. But bro, I love your videos! YYYUUGE FAN! From the Captain aswell.
Still works as of 04/06/2022. Nooblets never let’s you down! A few things to mention that I didn’t hear but might have missed in the video are you must use a pteranodon as other flyers do not keep the agro. You must have them set to follow with high as the distance. Otherwise your Pteranodon will land.
Ummm.... Just to clarify... Only the last shot upon knock out will lose taming levels with splash damage... It means you can miss a few times and still knock one out with out losing taming bonus levels. Unless as said before, the final shot will decide the taming bonus levels.
Thanks dude! I've lost quite a few cannons, metal dino gates, metal walls and a bronto w/platform saddle. All trying different cannon methods (which is hard to line up), rocket launcher method, and ballista method. After watching this video and the prior one where you explain the mechanics, I feel confident to give your method a go later today. I'll check in with an update once I've attempted it.
Sorry this reply took longer than expected. I was able to put it to the test last night. We tamed a 145 and 149 with no complications. Perfect method. Thx again brother !!
Video was brilliant, played ARK for years but had never tamed one of these bad boys. Built said trap as you explained, first go 130 in the blast shield , no splash damage 😃 thanks mate
Thank you so much for this! I play solo and I've been trying to figure out how in the world I was going to get one of these things. Can confirm argys do not hold aggro on them. I tweaked it slightly since I didn't feel like getting a ptera though. I did it with a normal doorframe on top and... a moth. Lol! Took a bit of maneuvering because the moth doesn't actually get stuck in the door like other mounts. I did get a little splash damage because some positioning was off. It worked though! Now I've got a rocky friend.
Finally was able to try this out on Scorched Earth. I had to use a Lymantria instead of a PT (since they don't spawn on SE). I also had to use a normal doorframe instead of the double doorframe for the top opening. The Lymantria is small enough to fly right through otherwise. It took some trial and error to lead the golem just right but in the end it worked like a charm. Thank you Nooblets for all your work and testing.
Thank you so much for your amazing skills at showing us lesser Arkers how to make something like this easier .. and I just used this method and tamed up a 196 Rock elemental on the server I'm playing on. Thank you again Steve for your hard work and dedication on Ark!
Awesome video, can only imagine the time spent trying to perfect this, thanks so much, first try i had the cannon slightly out and thought it'd be fine, only got 90% taming effectiveness, then for the next one made sure it was exactly as you said/showed and got 100%, thanks heaps, always use and love your videos
Works amazing, dud this on CI today and tamed a 140 at 99%. Just aim for the top of the doorframe window and ur good, I also placed a small chest on a second foundation next to cannon for cannon ammo
works! My guy was a bit to the side and not in the middle so when I got him down he was at 94%, but I play this game casually so that was good enough. Tnx man
I tried this with an Argy and cant get it to work, every time I jump off bird the Golem keeps aggro on me and tries to walk around the doorframes then starts attacking the metal
With a cinamacrops on gen 1 with no flyers you could hover and guide a pt to the trap get it stuck there, the place down a dino behind the cannon, hop on and whistle the pt to follow the dino so you can freely guide a x rock golem to the trap!
Even I was able to do it. Next step, find a high level one near my trap. It took dying once to get it aligned perfectly with the trap but it worked. Also, gawd help you if the Pteranodon decides to move.
does this only work with Pteranodon? I tried it with an argent and the rock golem hit it to death. I moved the cannon around and hoped for the best and did knock it out with 98.5 taming effectiveness.
@@LeoTheYuty That may be possible, but it would be a huge inconvenience to make. The way Astrocetus blueprint is set up anytime it eats food it decreases effectiveness. For the modded food you would have to cast to Astrocetus when its consumed and alter the effectiveness that way, but im not entirely sure if its possible.
I tried this on my single player world and it didn't work well for me. My first complaint is that you tested this in the same place. Meaning the terrain is constant, so this cannot just be placed elsewhere...different measurements are needed. Any slight elevation change affects the Golem's head location and can cause splash damage regardless. The cannon placement is not easy to get either. Lining up the cannon depends on the elevation of the player (Being above the foundation has a different view from ground level). I did my test on a super flat area of Valguero and could not get the cannon to the correct angle. I also tried in a mountainous area with no luck. I'll keep trying on my end, but I spent a good 3 hours already testing.
Yes it need to be on flat ground or the flyer will be lower or higher than the cannon, put the cannon down, fire at the top of its head and if its to low or high, pick the cannon up and adjust it.
Actually this method works perfectly without all that extra work you put in the rock golem head hit box are wonky when you aim at it from the front like that so to get 100% taming effectiveness simply set your canon up from a diagonal position to the rock elemental that way it’s a perfect head shot every time or the canon ball will just entirely miss and not do damage if it doesn’t hit the golems head hit box. Also a griffin works better if you have one over the PT better elevation control.
On the server I'm in it doesn't work the elemental prioritizes the structures and then if it's not focused on the structures it's focused on the player and it walks around the doorframes
I found a way to tame any golem with 100% efficiency and its kind of a bug or maybe just playing with the hitbox but it works very nicely i just put a metal gate and let the golem get stuck hitting it for eternity and place a gate door on it and the gate door blocks the splash damage and i can hit its head without splash damage
This trap seems very efficient however 1 issue I have is not all terrain is consistently flat like that and would be really hard to get one that's the perfect level for the golem and also you only tested with a PT. I think it would've been better if you tested this using a variety of small flying creatures as I see many comments saying they did it with a Griffin or an arge or a lymantria and gave various different results. I want to know what some of the good tames to use are as I play SE and can't get a PT unless I spawn one in and forcetame it but I don't really want to use cheats on my SE play through. I would appreciate some feed back to some tames you could use as a replacement if not I'll probably just spawn one in.
If u were to change one of the door frames with a wall where his head is the wall will take the splash damage. I tame lot of golem on official and i get 100 that way
Yeah the trap was a great idea but it didnt quite work at first my flyer didn't stay in the air which was a argy and a lymantra so I got a ceiling at the right height and that worked I argroed the elemental and he threw a rock at my argy agroing ny lymantra who were not both fighting suprise suprise my lymantra died 😕 and my argy and I barely made it away how could I make it to where it works?

Ark has been around since June of 2015. Five years may seem like forever when you are young, but trust me that it flies by when you get older!
Just in time to register to the Nooblets University.

Try it with a PT like in the video. Ark is finicky, a small change in hit box size might change how the mechanic works.
Argy doesn't work. Can't hold aggro. Definitely use the pteradon.
@@LordNeyney does it work with a tapejara?
@@kingabdul9048 give it a try. Don't know if the Tapi can hold the agro. Worse case you'll have to get an easily tamed Pteradon.
@@LordNeyney I'm on SE so no pters for me😂
Cool I like the Co operation with my boy captian fatdog
Teamwork makes the dream work 😎
tried this today and it works amazing ty so much makes taming super easy ( top tip ) make sure ground is flat before building trap 👍👍👍👍
amount of semifinals before THIS final perfection is crazy

As of 2022 still works great. Thanks Steve, i love you 😘
This definitely works. Thank you!
Thank you, this was the single best taming video I've ever seen and its helped me so much THANK YOU. BRILLIANT

Would love to see an updated managarmr taming video
thats pretty simple :D just place 2 stone gates above him when hes on the floor with a little space between, thats it he cant get out
Perfect level 150 with 99% thank you for your perfect instructions 👍
How come my pt lands as soon as I hop off
Needs to be whistled to follow
Worked like a charm!
does this only work with Pteranodon? I tried it with an argent and the rock golem hit it to death. I moved the cannon around and hoped for the best and did knock it out with 98.5 taming effectiveness.
Now we need a way to get 100% on astrocetus
It's impossible. I work in the DevKit. Wildcard set it up so that its taming effectiveness gets shredded no matter what food it eats.
@@danielbeard460 So could a modded food be made to give it 100% effectiveness?

Loved the video, first time I have managed to knock out a rock elemental without killing it
hope you subbed :P
I followed every step in this tutorial, but it seems that my flier keeps landing itself the moment I dismount. Any advice? :(
Are you using a Pterdon? is it on long follow?
@@NOOBLETS
Ahh…!
No, I was using a Tapejara and Argent. Also I forgot about the long follow, too. 😅
I got it now. Thank you for clarifying, Steve. 🙏
Can I use an Argy as bait or will it screw up the method?
No Pteranodons on SE and I can only be arsed to import one if needed.
tapejara worked for me but argy didnt

You Nailed it 😎 tnx...been having issues with these Elemental Biatches 🤣
Are there any alternative flyers that can be found in scorched earth?
Does it run away or is it still focused on the pteranodon
Thanks nooblets
Thank you. Nice Video

Does this works with others flyers like an argy or tapejara?
note, ground needs to be perfectly level, learned that one
I did my foundations first for that exact reason... With it 8 foundations long the slightest elevation change can mess it up
Do you have to use metal double doors and metal foundations, or would any work?
Fantastic job! You've done it again.
ty so much for this!
"Good video Stev. It's amazing."
does this work with a tek stryder too?
Could you set up a firing barrage of like three cannons
On the server I'm in it doesn't work the elemental prioritizes the structures and then if it's not focused on the structures it's focused on the player and it walks around the doorframes
Please do a genesis version with no flyers? Was thinking same design might work with a thylo?
ty so much bro I've tameda145 last night 100% eff.
Yea… didn’t work for me… my pteranodon ended up attacking the golem… should it be set to passive too?! Feel like a lot was left out of this video.
Can we use a Rocket launcher aimed at its head instead of a cannon?
I found a way to tame any golem with 100% efficiency and its kind of a bug or maybe just playing with the hitbox but it works very nicely i just put a metal gate and let the golem get stuck hitting it for eternity and place a gate door on it and the gate door blocks the splash damage and i can hit its head without splash damage
Quick question can you do the same with rocket turrets
Really well done best trap I’ve seen!!
thank you so much it works perfectly
well done mate, i get people saying it doesnt work because they dont have the skill to do it :P
I got lucky one time and was able to shoot at its head from the side (rather than head on) with your original method. Got 62 levels out of a 130.
Thanks for the help
I wonder if you can make a video on the basilisk
Used your blast shield trap yesterday and it worked great this one is better tho doesn’t cost as much
genial, einfach und effektiv, danke
