DO NOT ENGAGE OR YOU WILL DIE! I was hunting araneos when this thing came out of nowhere and three shot me! All my dimorphs were literally devoured when I came back. It is like centipedes in real life but instead of killing you slowly with poison it kills you with bites quickly. Do not equip anything lower than Chitin or you will get one shot. Make the up arrow green so people can know ππ»
It just had to be a non-violent tame didnβt it. And yet one of the only places they spawn, scorched earth, to get ghille you have to kill mantises. *Shudders*
Be careful. Destroyed my asc flak in 2 hits.
Stay TF back. Bug repellant and ghillie seems like your best option. Also, a longbow and a lot of distance. If it spots you, duck and weave MF, duck and weave!
If you find one, try to get a headshot because guns do 3x damage to them, so a headshot should be a death blow.
Guess what! In real life, the arthropleura was a docile herbivore that would only attack if provoked!
Ark Devs: Letβs make it into an aggressive death monster that can destroy any structure you build or armor you make.

If you plan on building in a cave, build at least 2 layers worth of walls of the material of your choice (the stronger the better). I built in a cave once, I logged in it was fine, I took my raptor out for some meat for my feeding troughs and when I got back, I saw one of these dudes eating my wall. My tames killed it but I had to fix that gap. So if you are planning on building in a cave. Have more than one wall dividing you and the killer centipedes. Or do the the therizinosuarus tips and do the bounce spike wall I mentioned. Never failed me.
