ARK Rock Elemental Spawn Command

The Rock Elemental throws boulders at enemies at range and has extremely high natural damage resistance — wild specimens take 90% reduced damage from all non-explosive and non-TEK attacks, making most conventional weapons nearly useless against them. Tamed Rock Elementals retain significant damage reduction (50%) and are fully immune to all Wyvern breath attacks. Rock Elemental is a herbivore (mineral-eating — eats extraordinary kibble, sulfur, clay, stone). Cannot be tamed with tranquilizers — requires Cannon Balls fired at the head to induce torpor (body shots deal damage but no torpor). Eats Extraordinary Kibble for fastest tame, or Sulfur, Clay, and Stone. Found on Scorched Earth, Ragnarok, and Extinction. Clay cannot be placed in a Feeding Trough, so it must be hand-fed during the taming process.

Boulder throw activates automatically at range as the creature's primary attack when targeting enemies — it requires no special input. Melee strike with Left-click for close-range attacks. The boulder throw and melee harvest Stone and other resources from nodes passively while attacking. Mount and use it to walk into a Wyvern's breath attack without taking damage — its immunity makes it one of the safest ways to steal Wyvern Eggs in the Wyvern Scar on Scorched Earth and Ragnarok. Taming requires a Cannon with Cannon Balls aimed at the head — body shots inflict no torpor. Use it to safely clear Wyverns near egg nests — it takes zero damage from fire, lightning, or poison breath. For stone harvesting, it outpaces most creatures in raw Stone yield and is also effective on Wood nodes. Tamed Rock Elementals can harvest materials from the remains of other Rock Elementals (element dust and other materials). TEK weapons ignore the 50% tamed damage reduction entirely, so avoid them in PvP against TEK-geared players. Level Melee Damage for higher harvest yield and combat output.

Open the console with ~ and enter cheat summon RockGolem_Character_BP_C to spawn a wild Rock Elemental in ARK: Survival Ascended. For a tamed one at a level you choose, use cheat gmsummon "RockGolem_Character_BP_C" 150. On a server, run enablecheats <ServerAdminPassword> first and keep the cheat prefix.

Use cheat gmsummon "RockGolem_Character_BP_C" <level>. The number is the pre-tame level — ARK adds up to a 50% taming bonus, so a value of 100 ends up around level 150. To hit a target level, divide it by 1.5. A gmsummon creature still needs a saddle to ride.

summon drops a wild Rock Elemental at a random level. SummonTamed gives you a tamed one but at a random level you can't set. gmsummon spawns it tamed at the level you specify — the one most people want.

Yes. In single player the cheat prefix is optional and no password is needed. On a dedicated or non-dedicated session you must run enablecheats <ServerAdminPassword> once, then prefix each spawn with cheat. Set that admin password without hand-editing files using our free ARK config generators.

Yes — Rock Elemental has 3 spawnable variants (X-Rock Elemental, Chalk Golem, Rubble Golem). Each has its own class name, listed with copy-paste commands in the variants table above.
