Ferox (Large) — Detailed Guide

The large Ferox is the transformed form of the Ferox from Genesis Part 1. Fed Element, the small, shoulder-sized Ferox turns into a hulking, wall-climbing brute with much stronger attacks for a limited time.

Where to find it

The Ferox lives on Genesis Part 1, Genesis Part 2, Lost Island and Fjordur. A wild small Ferox may transform on its own when approached.

Taming

It cannot be tamed in its large form. Tame the small Ferox passively: put Element on your hotbar, approach it and use it, survive while it transforms and chases you, and repeat until it is tamed. A level 150 needs about 20 transformations.

Breeding

Gestation takes about 9.9 hours, and a baby matures in about 3.9 days at 1x. The female must be in small form and highly addicted to Element.

Uses

  • Mount: ridden without a saddle; it clings to walls and super-jumps.
  • Rock Throw: breaks stone structures, which makes it a raid tool.
  • Insulation: it protects its rider from heat and cold.

Tips

Trigger the change by feeding Element from the hotbar, not from a trough. The form lasts about 12 minutes, less at high addiction.
