Cryolophosaurus — Detailed Guide
The Cryolophosaurus is a crested, ice-themed carnivore added to ASA with Lost Colony in December 2025. It spits torpor, breathes freezing air and can coat allied tames in ice armor, so it works as both a knockout helper and a support fighter.
Where to find it
It lives in snow biomes. It is most common on Lost Colony and Valguero, and also spawns on The Island, The Center, Ragnarok, Astraeos and Extinction.
Taming
- Method: a knockout tame. Clear other creatures from the area before you start.
- Defense: a durable shield reflects its spit, but not its freezing breath. Duck behind a large rock when it breathes.
- Food:
Exceptional Kibble and
Raw Mutton are preferred. Keep
Narcotics ready for a long session.
Breeding
- Egg: hatches in about 5 hours at 12 to 16 °C.
- Growth: a baby takes about 7.7 days to mature at 1x.
Uses
- Knockouts: its torpor spit helps put other creatures to sleep.
- Support: Ice Armor gives frozen allies damage resistance at some cost to speed.
- Storage: it slows spoilage of meat, berries and narcotics in its inventory.
Tips
The saddle needs level 60. Its spit and breath use Cryo Liquid as ammo, and its Hyper state adds 30% speed and 15% damage for 30 seconds on a 75-second cooldown.
