The Attack Drone is a creature in ARK: Survival Evolved, and one of the two minions that defend the 
Overseer.
Basic Info
With the introduction of the Overseer, Attack Drones and 
Defense Units were added to serve as minions. They are summoned throughout the battle. They drop 
Element upon death, which can be helpful to players using Tek during the Boss fight. Any Element collected during the fight will disintegrate afterwards when the player Ascends.
Behavior
Attack Drones hover high above the ground and continuously distance themselves from the player.
Appearance
Attack Drones appear as real-life drones, with a futuristic touch.

Wild Stats Level-up
Type in values of a wild creature to see on which stats it's emphasized. Green values on a high-level creature are very good for breeding. If you have already tamed your creature you can try to recover the breeding stats with an external tool.[1]
Attack Drone
The stat-calculator does not work in the mobile-view, see here for alternatives: Apps
Note that after the creature is tamed it gets bonuses on some stats depending on the taming effectiveness. This makes it hard to retrieve the levels on a tamed creature, so this tool is only for wild ones, but gives a first impression, how well the stats are distributed.
Combat
This section describes how to fight against the Attack Drone.
General
Strategy
Since the Attack Drone continuously distances itself from its targets, using ranged attacks/weaponry is effective.
Weaponry
Assault Rifles, Rocket Launchers, Tek Rifle, and other powerful ranged weaponry are effective against these.
Dangers
Weakness
Pump-Action Shotguns deal a lot of damage to an Attack Drone.
Notes
- Released in patch 267.0.
- Bug: As of 267.21, Attack Drones can be knocked-out and tamed through normal game-play. While it is not recommended to attempt to tame one during the Overseer battle (the tamed drone will be deleted upon Ascension), it favours
Kibble (Allosaurus Egg) and will eat any form of Meat. Additionally, the Attack Drone also shares much of its code with Tapejara, so two Attack Drones can also breed to produce Tapejara offspring. An Attack Drone tamed normally cannot be ridden, as it will not accept any saddles. - Attack Drones can be forcetamed and ridden, but upon mounting, the player will become the Attack Drone.
