Tips & Strategies
Did you guys know that especially arthropleura can be easily kill with range weapon. For examplelike bow, crosbow, longneck rifle and much more, just promise it was a range weapon. Shooting it with any range weapon will rate the damage taken of it. Also attacking it using any melee weapons or hands is the worst idea ever! It can inlflict 300% of damage taken to yourself if you attack it with any melee weapons or hands while tamed creature only take 0.25% inflicted damage to itself. Beware, arthropleura poison will slighty drain your health but dealt a massive damage to your armour. It is very usefull in PvP to breakdown a metal foundation, but sadly, arhtro is not that very good swimmer, not fast, and not even carry a big amount of weight. Lv 1 arhtro can only carry much as 100 Kg.

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.
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!
He protec
He attac
But most importantly he says good bye to your flak
They CANNOT attack you while in the water!!!
Never use melee weapons against them because arthropleuras reflect some of the damage dealt back onto you and your armor and also massively damage your weapon's durability
Always use firearms against them because arthropleuras take 3x damage against them and projectiles and also have a 2.5x headshot multiplier so hitting a headshot will massively damage them
Do not engage,it has speeding acid that can shred through armor,tek structures,and you,if you hit them,you'll either die or break your harvesting tool,I learnt this the hard way on scorched with a level 145 direwolf,it died.
They can spawn alone or in packs of up to 2 and can only spawn in the lower south cave, central cave, upper south cave, and the swamp cave.
