The Achatina (Or just snail) can be found in the redwoods and swamp biome. Just be wary that these biome are filled with nasties

Dear WHAT ARE CAKES?!

You need to make Sweet Vegetable Cake. Learn in engrams.

Important tip! They only eat cake! So level up their hunger so they can go a long time without food!

A good way to also store them and save space is triangle foundations with railings stacked 2 high they never get out and access to multiple is a must!

Use a tranq dart and aim for the soft butt or head. Wait 5 to 10 seconds between shots, less wasted ammo, faster KO and less likely to kill. Easy to keep up with, kill everything on the ground around it to ensure a safe start. After KO add cakes and sleepy stuff (narcoberries, narcotic, or bio toxin) stand a bit away incase you are attacked so you don't kill it accidentally. I fly argy when taming snails since usually attacked by troodons and little thieves.

Put it in your greenhouse garden to give off PvZ vibes

My advice is to catch him with the argent and take him out of the swamps

I picked up a “snail” in the redwoods with my “pterodactyl”, and dropped it in my base (surrounded by spike walls). It wondered around and dropped cement paste for a while, but it kept trying (unsuccessfully) to escape... so I built a wooden platform with 3 window walls and a door, & dropped it in with my “pterodactyl”. I could stand outside the window and grab the cement paste before I was able to tame it (with 10 cakes). Very handy companion. I’m trying to make a tree platform and you need like 1,000,000,000 cement paste to do it...

Can be carried in arms while riding a land or air dino.

Must be set to wander to produce paste. Rarely moves anyway. Roughly 1 CP produced per minute in it's inventory. Can stack to 100. Also randomly produces organic poly as well. Having 2-3 of these will give you an over abundance of CP in just a few hours.

Dodo ex says that this does not drop any angler gel but when I killed one of these I got 1 angler gel I am on mobile also

Babies die with cakes in their inventory for some reason, just force feed them till juvenile.

Some obvious tips no one really mentions: Remember to aim for the slug, not the shell. Otherwise you’re just wasting your ammo. Also, if you can, pick them up and carry them to someplace safe before taming. I recommend ruins where you can throw down a quick gate or spike wall to seal the entrances. Final tip; their torpor drains fast. Best route is narco berries, which take longer to raise torpor (and the longer it takes to rise, the more time before it starts draining!)

Tame a low level one. No difference in drops from a lvl 15 one and a lvl 300 one. Just be careful that you don't accidentally kill them while trying to knock them out

When taming. It takes about 200 food for it to eat a piece of cake.

Hello everyone! Today we'll be looking at the Achatina.

- What is this creature? -

The Achatina is a snail that lives in swampy areas. It's completely harmless and easy to kill. However, if you don't kill it with one hit, it will crawl into its shell and can no longer be attacked. The same applies to wild creatures: if they don't kill the Achatina with one hit, they won't be able to attack it anymore.

There are two types of Achatina:

Normal Achatina

Aberrant Achatina (found on the Aberration map)

- How to tame? -

The Achatina can only be tamed with sweet vegetable muffins. Achatina can be easily stunned with a small number of darts (depending on its level). She wakes up fairly quickly, so bring at least 50 narcotics. Place a couple of sweet vegetable muffins (depending on her level) in her inventory and wait. There's a bug where Achatina eats a muffin without increasing her taming bar, so bring some muffins with you. Once Achatina wakes up, she can be carried by any flying creature, so you can carry her without cryocaps.

- Useful Tips -

Achatina is your home "cement" maker. She produces Achatina paste, which works like regular cement. There's a bug where when you log out and back in, Achatina's entire inventory is filled with her paste. However, for Achatina to produce paste, she needs to be wandering. To prevent it from escaping, build a wooden cage and place the Achatina in it, enable wandering, and enjoy a large flow of "Cement." The downside of the Achatina is that even after taming, it only eats sweet vegetable cakes. So, unless you have a large supply of resources for making cakes, taming the Achatina is not recommended.

- Loot -

Achatina loot is standard:

Raw meat

Chitin.

However, in Ark Survival Mobile Edition, Achatina also dropped Anglerfish Gel.

Sweet vegetable cake is the preferred food for Achatina

Just tame 5 or 10 of these and DON'T put inside them a lot of Stone or something heavy so they cannot move when you put them into patrol. With that, they passively generated 100 achatina paste every hour. When vou don't take those achatina paste, they start to generate organic Polymer. Just make sure those "snaila" can move but store them in a 2x2 box so they don't get lost and you have a nice auto-paste farming. You also shouldn't do this with dung beetles or any creature that is trying to mate because it will halt any mating or production of fertilizer.

Easy way to keep them in place, just fill their inventory with stone. Encumbered, they will not move, even on wander. Then for feeding, put cake in a tough. They will stay in place and alive! NOT making you resources the whole time... Downvtoe the other tip to the bottom for truth! This also DOESN'T work for dung beetles or any creature that are trying to mate.

They are found in the swamp and love nothing more than cake. Capable of producing Achatina paste (alternative to cementing paste) and organic polymer . Once set to wandering, will produce and store a max of 100 paste.They also defecate CP.

The achatina has its own paste the achatina paste
