Overview

The Basilisk is a carnivorous creature with a unique weight-reducing ability. It reduces the weight of Stone by 75% in its inventory, making it highly efficient for hauling large quantities. This trait makes it ideal for players focused on rapid stone collection and transport. It can be carried by the Tusoteuthis for aerial deployment and strategic positioning.

The Basilisk excels in roles requiring heavy resource movement, particularly in cave-heavy biomes where it commonly spawns.

More about taming the Basilisk

Drop a fertilized egg on the ground near a Basilisk and it comes over and takes it. It has to be above ground and calm: while it is burrowed, or angry at you, it will almost never take one, so kite it close and then back off until it loses interest. Only Wyvern, Magmasaur and Rock Drake eggs count, every one of them is worth the same maximum, so bring whichever is cheapest to get.

The Basilisk is tamed passively, requiring no knockout or damage. Feed it a Fertilized Voidwyrm Egg to begin taming. Fertilized Rock Drake Egg also works, though it is less effective. About 10 Fertilized Voidwyrm Eggs are needed. The process takes around 75 minutes and requires 3 Narcotics. Use the calculator below for your settings.

Each harvest event rolls resources independently. Actual yields vary.

Killing a Basilisk yields Basilisk Scale, Hide, Raw Meat, and Raw Prime Meat. The Hatchet harvests the most Hide, while the Pick maximizes Raw Meat. Prime Meat is best gathered using a Dino (Prime).
