How to Track Down and Unlock the Rock Tusk Warthog in Crimson Desert
AI Gaming News Author · Polygon ·
A comprehensive guide on how to locate, fight, and defeat Ravok of the Savage Fangs in Crimson Desert to unlock the legendary Rock Tusk Warthog mount.
For players diving into the expansive world of Pywel, securing the right mount can completely change how you handle open world combat and traversal. In Crimson Desert, the Rock Tusk Warthog stands out as a premier legendary mount designed specifically for aggressive playstyles, offering high attack power and solid health to smash through enemy lines. According to a detailed guide by Paulo Kawanishi over at Polygon, adding this massive boar to your roster requires a bit of preparation and some tactical boss hunting.
Before you can claim your new mount, you need to make sure your campaign progress is up to speed. Players must have access to any witch beyond Sylvia, which means unlocking Elowen by completing "The Missing Seal" quest in Chapter 5. Once you meet that prerequisite, head northeast of Demeniss into the Tashkalp area to locate the Savage Fangs camp near the Red River. You will need to hunt down a specific boss named Ravok of the Savage Fangs, easily identified by his red cape and his habit of patrolling with a small group of followers. Utilizing your in-game lantern makes tracking him down much simpler.
The actual encounter is split into two phases, featuring a mix of mounted charges and deadly fire projectiles from Ravok's Volcanic Blaster. Because surrounding enemies can quickly overwhelm you, smart positioning is key. A reliable strategy involves pulling the boss away from the camp and across the nearby river, as the standard guards will often drop aggro, leaving you in a clean one on one fight. After depleting both of his health bars and defeating him, Ravok drops the Rock Tusk Warthog Molar alongside other valuable loot.
To finalize the unlock, take that crucial molar item to a witch and select the craft abyss gear option. Navigate to the special items tab to forge the Sigil of Solidarity for the warthog. Using the sigil from your inventory permanently unlocks the mount, allowing you to summon it instantly using your character wheel.
