The Aureliax is a passive-tame flying carnivore known for its unique taming ritual and aerial combat abilities. It excels in defense events and supports allies with healing and damage-dealing breath attacks. It can be airlifted by Quetzal or Karkinos for fast deployment.

An Aureliax never eats and never lands, so bring something fast to reach it and a Parachute for the way down. Send any shoulder pet away before you mount it. Mount it and it asks for one specific item at a time, and takes only that. The table below is the list it draws from. Filling the bar does not hand you an Aureliax: it turns into an egg that drops to the ground, and you then have to defend that egg from waves of Neophytes.
Aureliax is tamed passively through a gift-giving ritual. Approach and mount it directly - shoulder pets must be unequipped for the prompt to appear. Offer a Bow or Metal Pick to trigger the transformation into an egg. After the egg lands, defend it from five waves of Neophytes marked as "Aureliax Defense." Use high-damage weapons like the Pump-Action Shotgun and wear Flak Armor. Stay close to the egg throughout the event. The entire process takes about 15 minutes. Use the calculator below for your settings.
