Taming & KO Tips
How do I tame a arthropluera? Tips and strategies on taming and knocking out a arthropluera.
Don't worry freshers! I know it looks creepy😅.
Here is very simple taming tutorial.
1. Craft Ghillie set if possible.
2. Must use Bug Repellent.
3. Take Spoiled Meat for fast tame.
(Optional) Take it's Saddle with you.
4. Go for Central Cave (near volcano "39.6--46.9")
5. Use Bug Repellent and enter in the hell.
6. The first creature you will see is your Arthro.
7. Don't worry about other creatures just get a little bit close to it & start feeding it.
8. Yeah buddy, now you have An Electric Vehicle for any caves.
Raising/breeding baby phase they only eat spoiled meat juv and in they eat regular meat and spoiled meat.
On the artifact cave on the island near rock island. ( Artifact of the hunter) they spawn on land and in water. When they spawn in water you can go in the water and tame them they are passive in the water.
Yes they still have stealth BUT if at any point they have ever died or been chronicalled, they will lose the stealth. You cannot revive tame, or they lose stealth.
Just bait it into the water and it will auto deaggro.
Let it sink to the bottom while you kill off the spiders and anything else attacking you.
Once all threats are clear swim down and take :)
For those of you who play pve on official just heads up you will need to tame this guys old school since you can't pick them up with crab/megas, since you may not be able to get them to water so they stay still here's how you do it. Full ghillie and bug repellent make sure you aggro them then bring them to a spot away from other wild dinos (preferably with a drake) wait till deaggro follow them from their tail side don't get infront of their head wait till they stop moving they will stand still for a few seconds then in that instant run to them aim for their head and feed the broth of enlightenment make sure you spam triangle/E if you missed they will raise their heads and attack go away deaggro and try again I tamed 4 last night this way good luck!!
To tame these guys we will need to feed them Broth of Enlightment, Spoil meat or Raw meat but I suggest Spoil meat if you are not that rich to spend some black pearls for this tame and using spoil meat is not that bad though combine with 1 smoothing balm will make it as good as using Broth of Enlightment. For the taming progress you could either using bug repellant(needed) and the ghilie amour(not really needed) try to approach it from behind and feed it when ever its hungry and or you could use a more complex way but extreme reliable is by tame something from the cave like scorpion(suggest) or araneo and then use that tamed to approach the centipede it won't aggro at all so you just need to sit on your mount and keep feeding, it would be great if you combine with smoothing balm, after you its tamed since it also a cave dino still nothing will aggro on you guys, y'all could just go like a boss of the cave all the way to the surface 😂
To the people who say they only take broth of enlightenment suck a d bc they take spoiled meat
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
1 got to hunter cave 2 find armored noodle boi 3 lure into the water 4 kill all other enemies (but the arthro) 4 use balm for the high lvl one (or low lvl one you choose btw it won’t attack ya in the water) 5 ride your new materiel melting psychopathic armored noodle boi 🕷🦗🦟🦂🪳😊
Make sure you don't wear armor around them
Because they will destroy it. Use bug repellent so they don't automatically attack you. If you need spoiled meat make sure you have each raw meat split up individually that way once 5 mins passes by it all spoils at once
NON-VIOLENT THEY SAY HMMMMM ITS DEFINATLY THE TRUTH
THANKS WILD CARD
sorry for my grammer
I like how it says in stats, “Taming: Non-Violent” tf it’s violent
What you need: Spoiled Meat/Broth, Cryopod.
Go to the bottom of the lake in the south cave and they will be down there. They don’t move or attack when in the water. Feed it and cryo it and run like hell outta there.
Go in a cave with water if they are under water you can tame without them agroin you just use a scuba tank
Ghillie and bug repalent still managed to get eaten use broth of enlightenment it makes this much easier I learned the hard way
I find the best way to knock these out and tame them is to simply lead them into the water and grapple to them and they instantly de-aggro and it’s just a matter of feeding it. It has worked many times. Also no ghillie or bug repellent required 👍
Ghillie suits are not necessary but they help bug repellent is enough.
arthros are really easy to tame if you have a pulmonoscorpius, it grants you the stealth needed to do the passive tame (i think that araneos do that too but they're harder to catch and their saddle unlocks way later). you can just search the highest level arthro in the cave and stock up on rotten meat while doing so, just keep in mind that the saddle unlocks at level 54 and there's not much of a point in keeping one before having a saddle
Drop it with a flier in a 1x1 3 walls high and feed through wall face to face. No bug repellent or ghili needed
Since the latest update they are now breedable struckture eaters.
