After the creatures replaced this many considered it useless now.to re-new this it would be nice if it had a full power climb,like megalania,maybe hav it be able to spin webs to trap creatures no-larger than a carno,to top it all off hav it spin webs around your base that produce silk and when wild dinos try to attack they get caught in the web.

They can web any dinos so use that to your advantage

Everyone thinks they're useless. But fill your inner base with about 4 on aggressive. Your enemies will be stuck in a Web. Literally.

A pro tip that I came up with is that If you are being raided and you have turret then and have these guys then slow them down then the turret will be able to get more hits.

They should make the araneos R3 ability to be able to shoot a straight stream of web and act as a grappling hook.

Since TLC 3 , this creature is breedable. You cannot pick up it's fertilized eggs , so make sure you have a proper breeding area.

Don’t underestimate these things. A dilo and an araneo set on turret mode completely blinds any would be attacker. Pair that with a raptor for the pin, and an onyc for megarabies and the armor wreck, that player won’t know what hit them.

When tamed they can slow down any thing they are awesome even though I hate spiders and I’d love if they could climb

Araneo needs spider web grappling hook ability. Reeling up and down consumes Araneo stamina. TLC 3 please Wildcard.

For real what’s the point of this thing, nobody will probably see this tip because nobody will care enough to check the info on these poor bastards

Tame one of these inside a cave then the Dino in the cave will not aggro unless you attack them in other words the cave Dino will become neutral . This will not work if you tame a spider outside the cave . I would definitely recommend taming at least 3 when your at lvl 35-50 if you are playing in pvp it will help you get artifacts and artifacts will help you be the alpha of the server . Hope this tip was helpful

In mobile wersion it can go to every cave and don't lose any HP, because cave creatures aren't attack it. I don't know is it a bug or a new thing for mobile.

Taming a spider as a battle mount is quite useless but its ability to spray web at a target and severally slow them is ideal when taking on fast enemy's or large highly resistant creatures

They web meks. It’s the meks only weakness.

Basically it's only use is as a taming assist mount since it's web slows things down and they inflict torpor

Don't underestimate this creature in PvP. A webbed player is effectively blind. You can also use the webs for taming, similarly to the moth in Scorched Earth, by shooting webs onto a Dino and blasting them with tranq arrows and darts before they can run away/fight back.

Kinda wish these guys had a turret mode for the webs. Prettyuch be free plants you don't have to fertilize. To compensate though I just tamed a few high level dimorphodons to follow it, waited it down with stone so it couldn't move, and set it on aggressive with the highest radius. Set dimorphodons on attack my target and boom. Free turret.

ARK! I hope ark devs see this. Anyway to the point. Araneos need to take bubbles of air down with them when they go underwater! In real life spiders will carry air bubbles down with them on their tiny hairs on their body. This way they can breathe up to four hours. Depending on body size in air amounts. Anyway do you think we could see some of the bubbles and as a rider breathe from them too? I’d like this as a realistic update and not for fun. You wonder why that one spider never dies when you try to drown it in the toilet? It’s a fish. A fishspider. A hairy brown fanged fish. Vote up so devs see this and we get us some fishspiders! Araneoooo

Not exactly the best combat mount, slow, stamina isn't the best, a little squishy. But a few high levels of these on base defence are pretty good. Put a few in the inner parts of your base (along with the centipedes to wreck enemies armour) and the will have your enemies tangled up in seconds!

If you're trying to get a good one DON'T level stamina, it levels ridiculously I just looked in the stats section and it turns out a 150 araneo has 310 stamina and a level one has One hundred🙀
