Player-written tips for taming, using, and fighting the Achatina in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.

Found a level 885 snail in cave with Artifact of the Brute in it. I'm on 3rd round of taming. My friend just realized it was kind you had to put cake in taming slot. Ughhhhhhh wasted an hour for it to tame

Easiest way to tame. Build a 1 foundation box with just normal door frames. They can't fir through the frames so this is your trap. Use pretty much any flier to fly to swamp(or wherever you find one) pick it up. Bring back to trap(build at your base) drop it in the trap…

These guys also drop Angler Gell, and if you shoot the butt you can do damage while they’re in their shell, so you don’t have to get on your water tame and hunt Anglers, please up if this is helpful

Okay I couldn't find any info on feeding baby achatina so did a little trial and error. I found the baby achatine will birth at around 500 food. At first it would not let me put anything into the inventory. At about 100 food I was able to put a sweet cake into it. It did…

Use tranqs while it’s out of its shell and a flyer that has a carry function. Carry it to base or a tree platform, tame with sweet vegetables cakes and they eat that after tamed. Put narcotics in it inventory they drop torpor fast maybe like 30 jus in case, but not needed.…

The Achatina is a massive snail, mostly used for its production of Cementing Paste, or as a pet. This creature produces its paste passively — and quite frequently — so many survivors keep them around their bases. However, its usefulness pretty much ends there, as it cannot…

Tame a few of these (tamed with vegetable cake) and put them in a fenced in area on wondering and you can go in there every once in a while and get some cementing paste from their grey poop looking stuff

Achatina's sometimes take damage over time randomly due to being knocked out by titanoboas, waking up, and having their food lowered to 0 in the process

That would be cool if you could get it’s shell after you kill it and then you could use it for a shield of some sort.

On Xbox you have to nocout the creature to see the lvl but on PS4 you can see the lvl and these creatures are so good for cementing paste

For newbies who can’t make veggie cakes, just kidnap the snail things with a Petradon and drop them in a 3x3 foundation circle with the middle foundation not there and fences all around the middle.

It’s not as efficient as taming them, but you’ll have them when you…

What really sucks about these is that it only eats sweet vegetable cakes even after being tamed. Be warned, they do not eat berries / crops after being tamed.
