According the creature dossier, which is now available on ARK’s official discord server, the Yi Ling will posses a unique diet of mushrooms, congealed gas balls and Nameless venom that, and I quote, will ‘effect its attacks’. My hypothesis is that when the Yi Ling ingests certain items it will alter the creatures unique arrow attack in a way that best suits the item in question. For example the Nameless venom will create poison arrows whilst the gas balls will likely make explosive arrows. The mushrooms will probably inflict any player characters with the negative debuff of the collectible mushrooms located in the three aberrant zones, for example a Yi Ling that’s ingested Fertile zone mushrooms will confer hallucinations in afflicted player characters. This makes the Yi Long a fearsome prospect to anyone smart enough to use its unique abilities.
