What is a achatina used for? achatina utility tips and strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
One of the best ways by far to collect paste if you use the S+ mod. Tame a ton of them (12 is how many I have. It’s a little much...). Use the S+ Collector to passively collect their pasty poop, and regularly pull all their inventories. To keep them fed, use an S+ Tek Feeding Trough and set it so that only Achatina’s will eat from it and fill it with cake.
I don’t worry about paste now. Day 780 something on the server and have a surplus of about 80,000. This method is ideal with S+ (as most of us use it). However, regularly checking their inventories will also yield more than you’ll need.
They make Achatina paste not cementing paste. YES it counts as the same thing UNLESS you are trying to put it in a dedicated storage bin that has CP in it which WILL NOT work. It does NOT stack with CP. They also only eat veggie cakes so in my opinion don’t waste your time with this little guy.
All tips in one:
Only level food and weight, as they only eat sweet cakes even after taming and you would want to save those cakes. Weight for the organic polymer and paste. After producing 100 paste in their inventory, they will start producing organic polymer. Do not take the paste. Transfer the polymer to a different creature. For taming, pick it up with a pteranodon, put it somewhere safe, and use tranq darts. Do not use tranq arrows as they may one hit the achatina due to the low health. If you want, use a spyglass to measure torpor and calculate how many darts or arrows or stone you need. Get multiplr achatinas.
