On Astraeos in the desert areas, GIANT SCORPION KINGS AND QUEENS CAN SPAWN. These have a lot more health and inflict bleed if they hit you but they are also the only source of nameless venom on the map! Very useful to kill if you want to raise a rock drake

Hint: Don't jump and get stuck between their claws when they are knocked out, then you can't move. I learned that from experience.

Sting any creature that’s attacking to turn them passive

You can’t breed them on mobile.

I don't know why the guy saying they're not affected by Bolas is at the top. I just hit a level 5 wild in the mountain area with a bola right in the legs and it froze in place perfectly, no issues. BOLAS WORK, BUT YOU HAVE TO HIT THE LEGS, THE THIN SKITTERY EASY TO MISS LEGS.

In my opinion, these guys are the best, go on, say i am weird.

First, they are very easy to tame, all you need is a few spoiled meats and a bola, tranq arrows or even slingshots will do.

Second, after they are tamed, they are super useful, you can use them for cheap creature knock-outs, plus, if you tamed one in a cave, then use it for exploration, nothing in the cave can pick on you, making it easy to get to the artifacts.

Third, they are super easy to care for, they eat spoiled meat as well, so if a stack of meat spoils in its inventory, it will still eat them.

They have decent speed, stamina and melee damage, and can cross over tough terrain that most dinosaurs can’t.

Plus cool

Do not listen to the person who said you won’t be noticed by a carnivore RIP scorpes

When I was a fresh noob to ark I'd tame 3 scorps. I'd ride one and have the other 2 set to follow and there wasn't anything that could stop us

Best bet is to Bola the scorpion then shoot with tranq arrows. Best of luck, have fun 😊

Ok these guys need a TLC patch.

First patch: being able to choose to use its tail for less damage but more torpor, or use its claws for more damage but no torpor.

Second new ability: grabbing a small Dino with its claws only being able to use its tail for attacking while picking up a Dino. Perfect for taming!
