Fire Beetles

As I've posted previously, I play this game for my pleasure. Not for the size of my house or the number of rares I have. Maddux would have no need to be bandit with me i still believe in sharing and giving to anyone that needs what I dont.

however it might not be as fun for him if he doesntfeel like killing me.

Why I keep coming back who knows, but I do (I'm sure many of you feel the same after trying every online and off game to come out.) My questions are a friend told me there are fire beetles in the game which my miner can ride and use as a portable forge.

1. Is this true?
2. Is this better than a giant beetle with the storage space on him?
3. How hard are they to get ( to tame or to buy)?
4. Can they fight, as my miner is totally defenseless?

Any help would be greatly appreciated as I can see you guys on here are pure game geniuses when it comes to knowledge!

1.Yes
2.Yes Because you smelt to ingots which u can carry OR bring packhorse
3.Depeds Prices vary shard to shard
4.Some if u train.

Hope that helps you!

Merth, Hope all your enderavors on Lake Superior are going well.

I find that mining with a fire beetle and a bonded packie fits me just fine. I have one of the "old" fire beetles and he doesn't fight well at all.
