Overview
The Ice Elemental is a large, mineral-eating variant creature. It excels at harvesting a wide range of resources from nodes using its melee and swipe attacks. Players tame it primarily for its exceptional gathering efficiency across multiple high-tier materials. It can be airlifted by Quetzal or Karkinos for fast deployment.
It does not breed and must be tamed via knockout. Its inventory reduces weight for several key resources, enhancing transport logistics when paired with flying carriers.
