Desert Titan — Detailed Guide
The Desert Titan is one of the three Titans of Extinction: a giant flying creature that calls down lightning and travels with its own flock. It can be tamed, but only for a short time, and it serves as a huge flying base and a weapon against the 
King Titan.
Where to find it
It is fought in the Desert Dome in the southeast of Extinction, in both ASA and ASE.
Taming
- Nodes: corruption nodes on its back appear only after lightning strikes them. Destroy them all and it stops moving so you can claim it.
- Damage: hit the Titan itself as little as possible, because damage taken while taming lowers its health afterward.
- Order: the tail node stays protected until the wings are cleansed, and it starts tail slaps once the first node falls.
Uses
- Platform: it comes with its own platform saddle and cockpit. Its platform holds up to 62 structures, the largest of the flying Titans.
- Transport: a pack mule and a landing zone for other flyers.
- Combat: crowd control, and help in the King Titan fight.
Tips
It is a temporary tame. It cannot be fed and starves in about 24 hours, and transferring it empties its food completely.
