How to Obtain Serpent Eggs in Roblox Islands: A Comprehensive Guide
The quest for a Serpent Egg in Roblox Islands can be a rewarding but sometimes challenging endeavor. These eggs, vital for a chance at obtaining the highly coveted Void Serpent pet, are a sought-after item for many players. Here’s a breakdown of how you can get your hands on one:
The primary method for obtaining Serpent Eggs in Islands is by defeating the Void Serpent. After defeating the serpent, a Serpent Egg is guaranteed to drop for a certain number of players actively involved in the fight. However, it is crucial to note that if a large number of players are participating in the battle, only a limited number will receive an egg. This mechanic is designed to prevent a single fight from overwhelming the distribution of eggs. To get a serpent egg, one has to participate actively in the Void Serpent boss fight, and hope to be amongst the first players to get an egg if too many players participate in the fight.
Understanding the Void Serpent
Summoning the Void Serpent
The Void Serpent is not a creature that roams the Islands freely. You need to summon it. To do so, you must have at least 300 Void Serpent Tokens. These tokens can be accumulated by doing various activities within the game, which include completing daily challenges, or from event rewards. Once you have enough tokens, you can access the Void Isles arena where you will need to consume 300 serpent tokens to start the battle.
The Battle
The Void Serpent is a challenging boss that requires strategy and a well-equipped team. Once defeated, it has a 5% chance to drop a Serpent’s Scale, a 5% chance to drop a Serpent’s Fang, and will always drop a Serpent Egg (for a limited number of players if there are too many participants). Be prepared with your best gear and teamwork to secure your egg!
Utilizing the Serpent Egg
The Chance for a Pet
Once you have secured a Serpent Egg, you’ll want to open it! Upon opening the egg, there’s a 1% chance of rewarding a Void Serpent pet spawn egg. This makes the Void Serpent pet a ‘mythic’ rarity item. The other outcomes from opening a Serpent Egg is unknown, and they are considered filler items and are not important to the average player. Keep in mind that getting the pet egg is rare, so you might need multiple serpent eggs to get it.
How to Spawn the Pet
If you are fortunate enough to obtain a Void Serpent pet spawn egg, you can spawn the pet on your island. Make sure you are the owner of the island you are currently on. While holding the egg, simply click or tap anywhere on your screen to spawn the pet.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) About Serpent Eggs
1. How many players can receive a Serpent Egg from one Void Serpent defeat?
The game limits the number of players that get eggs if there are too many players participating in the same fight. The exact number isn’t disclosed, but if the server is crowded, only a fraction of the players actively fighting the serpent will receive the guaranteed egg. This ensures the rarity of the eggs.
2. Is the Void Serpent the only way to get Serpent Eggs?
As of now, the Void Serpent is the only reliable method to obtain Serpent Eggs. Other methods, such as events, may provide them as rewards in rare occasions but they are not a constant method of getting the item.
3. What is the best strategy for defeating the Void Serpent?
Effective strategies involve strong weapons, good armor, and coordinated team efforts. Focus fire on the serpent and use different strategies to help deal high damage to the boss. Avoid attacks on the serpent when it has its shield.
4. What are the other drops from the Void Serpent besides Serpent Eggs?
Besides the Serpent Egg, the Void Serpent also has a 5% chance of dropping a Serpent’s Scale and a 5% chance of dropping a Serpent’s Fang.
5. How rare is the Void Serpent pet itself?
The Void Serpent pet has a ‘mythic’ rarity, making it among the rarest pets in the game. The 1% chance from the egg emphasizes its exclusivity.
6. Can I trade Serpent Eggs or the pet egg with other players?
Currently, the game does not support trading of Serpent Eggs or the pet eggs directly. However, players can trade items needed to summon the serpent, which allows a player to fight it.
7. Do all Void Serpent battles provide the same rewards?
Yes, all battles with the Void Serpent offer the same drop chances, provided that not too many players participated in the boss fight at once, and that at least one egg is guaranteed per fight. The outcome depends on the player’s luck and effort in defeating the boss.
8. What happens if I open a Serpent Egg and don’t get the pet egg?
If you don’t get the Void Serpent pet spawn egg, you will receive other items, such as filler items. It is advised to not worry about these items, as the main purpose of the egg is the pet itself.
9. How many Serpent Eggs do I need to have a high chance of getting the pet?
Given the 1% chance, it’s statistically possible to need numerous eggs before obtaining the pet egg. Some players may get lucky early, while others will need to open many eggs. It is advised to prepare for a grind to get the pet you want.
10. How do I know if I have received a Serpent Egg after defeating the Void Serpent?
Upon defeating the Void Serpent, you will receive a notification that you got the Serpent Egg. Be sure to keep an eye on your inventory.
11. Can the Void Serpent be summoned solo, or is it best with a team?
While it’s possible to summon the Void Serpent alone, it is far more difficult to defeat it without the help of other players. Teamwork makes the battle significantly easier.
12. Where is the best place to look for players wanting to fight the Void Serpent?
Players often gather in the Hub, in the Void Isles, or in in-game communities to find partners for Void Serpent battles. It is advised to look into online groups to find a consistent team.
13. How does the Serpent’s Hook fit into the Void Serpent fight?
The Serpent’s Hook is a weapon in the game that can be used against the Void Serpent or other bosses. It has a spin attack and deals consistent damage, but it is not the most efficient weapon against the serpent.
14. Are there any other bosses that drop pet eggs with similar rarity?
Yes, the Slime Queen, Bhaa, and Slime King also have a 0.33% chance of dropping their respective pet spawn eggs, which are among the more rare pets in the game.
15. Is the Void Serpent fight repeatable?
Yes, the Void Serpent fight can be repeated as many times as you have the tokens. Each battle is an opportunity to acquire more serpent eggs and other drops.
Obtaining the Serpent Egg and the elusive Void Serpent pet requires dedication and a bit of luck. Understanding the mechanics of summoning and defeating the Void Serpent, as well as the odds involved, will help you on your journey. Best of luck in your quest for the mythic pet!
