How to Get Dragon Eggs

Found in the Mountains

Dragon Eggs can be found in the nests of Drakes in the Mountain biome. We suggest using Frost Resist Mead for this trip because the cold will chip away your health!

Every Dragon Egg in the game will be guarded by a few Drakes. It is very important that you bring a bow to clear them out if you plan to retrieve the Dragon Eggs.

Weighs 200 Units!

Do take note that Dragon Eggs weighs 200 Units per egg.

It is close to impossible to pick up multiple of these to summon Moder so you really have to take multiple trips. You also can't use a teleporter because Dragon Eggs can't be teleported!

We also recommend purchasing a Megingjord from the Trader so you would have an additional 150 carrying capacity!

Can Be Spawned with Console Command

If you don't mind using cheats to obtain it, Dragon Eggs can easily be spawned with the console command.

To spawn the item, first turn on cheat codes by typing devcommands in the F5 console, and use the spawn DragonEgg command to create the item.

How to Use Dragon Eggs

Used to Summon Moder

To summon Moder, you must sacrifice three (3) Dragon Eggs on her altar. This is the fourth boss in the game and is far more difficult than most bosses. If you want to know how to defeat and summon Moder, check out our guide!
