Baby: The hatched dinosaur, now a baby, needs constant attention and food placed directly in its inventory to survive, or a nearby Maewing to take care of its needs.

At birth, baby holds ~30 food - refill every ~3 min
During the Baby phase (0-10%), you must hand-feed or use a Maewing to nurse. From Juvenile (10%+), dinos can eat from a Feeding Trough on their own. Use Preserving Salt in troughs to double spoil times.
More about breeding the Brute Magmasaur
After a successful mate, the Brute Magmasaur lays a fertilized egg. Incubation temperature must stay between 90°C and 110°C - use Air Conditioners, Standing Torches, or Dimetrodons to maintain the range. At the correct temperature, the egg hatches in approximately 4 hours and 59 minutes.
After hatching or birth, the baby Brute Magmasaur matures over an extremely long period, one of the longest in the game, reaching adulthood in about 7 days and 17 hours at 1x maturation. Hand-feeding is required until 10% maturation. After that, a Feeding Trough handles the rest.
Mutations can add +2 levels to any stat and change colors. Stacking mutations across generations is the key to min-maxed breeding lines. Use the breeding calculator to plan food requirements, incubation timers, and maturation phases.
Raising a baby Brute Magmasaur involves three maturation phases: Baby (0–10%) lasts ~1111 min and requires constant hand-feeding. Juvenile (10–50%) spans ~74h - it can eat from a Trough now. Adolescent (50–100%) takes ~93h - continues eating from troughs, nearly fully grown.
Don't skip imprinting - each successful imprint boosts the Brute Magmasaur's stats, and hitting 100% grants a 30% combat bonus when the imprinter rides it. Imprint requests include cuddling, walks, and specific kibble - check the wiki for which kibble to stockpile.
Planning a mass raise? The Brute Magmasaur raising calculator breaks down food needs per phase so nothing goes to waste. The Baby phase (0–10%) takes ~1111 minutes and is the most hands-on, requiring direct feeding or a Maewing.
Raising multiple Brute Magmasaur simultaneously? Set the dino count and the calculator scales food requirements automatically. Match your food choice to your play schedule - longer spoil timers mean less babysitting.
ARK: Survival Ascended features the Brute Magmasaur as an omnivore creature that survivors will encounter in the wild.
Stamina sits at 750 base, providing outstanding staying power. Its base Melee Damage sits at 100%, giving it respectable melee power. With 2,250 base Health, the Brute Magmasaur is among the tougher creatures. It carries 750 base Weight - massive inventory space.
The Brute Magmasaur cannot be tamed and must be dealt with through combat or avoidance. Breeding produces fertilized eggs that hatch within a 90°C–110°C temperature window. A wild Brute Magmasaur is worth 240 base experience when killed. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.82 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
