Tips & Strategies

What are tips for andrewsarchus? Tips and strategies for andrewsarchus in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
1) Full Ghillie Suit
2) Put honey in hotbar slots.
3) Crouch walk 10-15m away and throw honey.
4) Ride that buckin pig!
5) dismount before red bar fills up to avoid losing taming effectiveness, the kick off will cost you dearly.
6) Put on some black sabbath and run around the map shooting everything in your path.
As long as you are not sprinting you will not need ghillie gear
Kill all of them and let them respawn and kill them again and then let them respawn again and then kill them again and then let them respawn again and then kill them and then tame it
These giant boar pups have the ability to do a dash which you might or already know but there is a cool trick when your running and use the dash press jump right after for a long jump and you Also keep the speed you had before the jump this is useful for launching yourself farther into the water or jumping over canyons or rivers
Always see some at 60, 25 on fjordr. The honey goes in your hot bar drop it from there. Bring a crossbow and grappling hook. If it throws you off grapple up a hill or tree and wait a bit. It will lose interest and walk off and you can throw down more honey and continue taming.
It is possible to tame one at level one you only need to harvest honey, run up to one a few steps back so it wont argo on you, crouch and toss the honey once it eats the honey run up and do the prompts and before it kicks you off jump off of it and crouch right away and repeat - someone who has 3 now at the start of the game
SurviveTheArk.com Official News: Andrewsarchus will be an upcoming creature in June on map fjordjur. Taming will require honey (Andrewsarchus is a passive tame and does not attack) . Once tamed the saddle will have a minigun that acts like a turret. Abilities are that it gathers silica pearls better than any creature so far, and it’s minigun saddle. This creature is aquatic but will be on land for taming.
This may be a good farmer, but I also think it may be a passive tame.
second tip.
You don’t need gillie you just have to crouch and it be near by ( will Agro/see you if you move to much or honey is to far away).
P.s. other creatures will eat honey.
Day 1 of making a tip everyday: Andrewsarchus
The andrewsarchus is a semi aquatic creature that is tamed by dropping honey on the floor, when it eats it you have to mount it similar to a equus, you then have to steer them in the direction they would like (the arrows on the screen point to them if I’m not mistaken) repeat the process if you mess up until they are tamed!
When they are tamed they can:
-Swim relatively fast and long
-have a saddle with a Minigun on it
-minigun shoots underwater
-run fast on land
-saddle protects you from radiation AND drowning
-can be ridden with no saddle if tamed earlier then saddle
-they have a pack buff
Bonus stuff:
-Saddle has Easter eggs in first person
-ManaTheTipMan
Get ready for a lot of honey since you will need it for this method aka early game just starting
I have .8 rates or .4 not on single player settings since I’m lonely but you get a metal hatchet and get a lot of honey around maybe 20 you find the one you like I got lucky whith a lvl 200 and use it like a cartoon path placing a few in a line to a better location and just continue your basic movements of tamein
Also every location that an Andrew spawn has at least 2 honey rocks except on the flatland mountains in vanna land good luck and I hope this works for you as well as it did for me
IMPORTANT INFO:
To tame you DONT need gilli or anything else!!! Just select honey from your hot bar and throw it by an Andrew! Once it is eating it is completely passive! Just run up and hop on! No sneaking or gilli needed!
I recommend if trying to escape have a flyer or raptor for battle I used yutys for easy exp you guys can use what ever you want
