ARK: Survival Evolved & Ascended Companion
Tips & Strategies
I will make a list of pros and cons about this creature:
Pros:
Nothing, and I mean NOTHING will aggro to you, even if you attack it
Inflicts torpor
Can melt armor, harvest dead bodies from afar with acid ball
Swims the same speed as walk
Cons:
Terrible weight (100) you're going to have to stuff your whole inventory somewhere, and maybe even your armor
Saddle requires 35 obsidian
Something I've noticed:
Wild ones can deal constant (like .5 sec between attacks) damage to you, but tamed ones, not even mounted ones can, and I get this needs to be balanced, but make it only work on wild creatures or something, I would love to see it work
More Arthropluera Taming & KO Tips
Taming an Arthropleura is really simple
Note: there's always a risk of losing your genitals so be careful when taming
Step 1: Spoil meat. Because nobody will waste broth of enlightenment
Step 2: make bug repellent. Ghillie Armor isn't necessary, the bugs pretend you have ghillie
Step 3: Carefully approach Satan (he won't notice you)
Step 4: feed him spoiled meat
Step 5: cyropod it and get the hell out of there as soon as possible because you don't have the saddle.
Step 6: make a saddle
Step 7: realise it can't climb anything on mobile
Step 8: Get Depressed
Step 9: Realise nothing agroes it and that you can easily just speedrun caves
Step 10: Ascendant Long neck.
PICK IT UP WITH A MEGALOSAURUS AND TAME IT FROM THERE IT IS !) TIMES EASIER AS NO CAVE ANIMALS ATTACK IT!!!!!!
Why must the most scariest and violent things be tamed passively?
Easiest and safest way to tame this is to lure it under water. They stop aggro and you can tame as you please. Just make sure you come up for air every once in a while. Also be sure the water is deep enough.
They can be found in genesis in the magmasaur cave. Make the button green so the app creators can see
If you use a crab an grab them, just put them underwater an they wont agro you, boom easy tame
Don't wear any armor when around the arthropleura, because it melts any armor
Bye bye flak gear
SUPER EASY TAMING!!!...Best place I've found to tame high level Arthropeluras is the cave of the Hunter on the Island, aprox lat 80, lon 53. I usually take a mate boosted pair of Baryonyx, find the large water holes, kill everything that attacks you using the Baryonyx tail whip attack (great for sarcos), once everything is dead look at the bottom of the water, usually there is 3-4 Arthropeluras laying still, THEY WON'T ATTACK YOU! proceed to feed rotten meat (I recommend broth of enlightenment), and enjoy your new demolition dino. PRO TIP: If you're looking for a level 150, kill everything in the cave, leave render, return and there should be fresh spawns. Rinse and repeat 😊 Happy Hunting - Sanch3z
Full Ghillisuit, bug repellent, and balls of steel because these are scary to tame! They have the taming slot right behind their head about where the saddle would normally sit. Must approach from behind and only approach when feeding, stay away otherwise
