Thanks to the Halloween event where these SOBs spawn anywhere they like near my base I've discovered they can slide under gates......you expect to be safe from land creatures, BUT NO. Current death count from unexpected attacks at 2.

All you have to do is tame a scorpion and ride up to an arthro on the scorpion and feed it spoiled meat. The arthro will not aggro on you while you are riding the scorpion. I did this on my mobile world so I can confirm that this works at least on mobile.

It is very easy to defeat them, just use ranged weapons and then you are good

Can destroy iron and tek walls. No need for c4

-Taming ARK Mobile-

*Note : If you kill Arthropluera, take its implant, and revive it back, it will not be immune to aggro, and you will be attacked by cave creatures. You must only tame it in the cave.

1. Wear ghillie suit(optional, but would be better if you have it), and use bug repellant.

2. Find your desired level of Arthropluera. Then kill all cave creature around it(spiders, scorpions, bats, snakes).

3. Walk up to the Arthropluera slowly and because you're on mobile, make sure not to accidentally punch it.

4. Put taming food(Broth of Enlightenment, Spoiled meat) in your quick inventory because this thing use non-violent tame method. When you see the prompt feed it until it is tamed.

5. Congratulations, now you got yourself an Arthropluera. Now you can explore swamp cave and yeti cave without the fear of getting attack by high level cave creature.

If you want to kill it, get a crossbow, but DON’T hit it with melee weapons. My sword broke in two swings! If you want to tame, get bug repellent or ghillie (or both) and feed spoiled meat. Also, don’t let it hit you, it broke me Mastercraft chitin armor in two-three hits. Hope this helps. Peace out ✌️

Tamable in the volcano biome of genesis

I was the swamp cave encountered two of them i was my bary my bary was lvl 143 375+ mele 2600 hp they were lvl 300+ i killed one off them and ended up run home with the artifact long story short when you encounter two or more in a cave especially the swamp cave run home don't fight them cuz your dino will die

Never use melee weapon

That's suicide.

Use the broth of enlightment, since it is their kibble. If you use a broth of enlightment a a balm it I a insta tame, since authors take forever to eat. You can find the recipe on google or something, be warned, it is EXPENSIVE.

(Mobile)

I tamed one in the hunter cave when I went to get the hunters artifact, and I lured it into the water and used broth of enlightenment. Guess what cave I did next?

I have a giga to ride now…

Go to the center, head to the rock head at 61 LAT 67 LON lure a artho of into the water tame it with spoiled easiest and quickest way in my opinion of years in ark

If you see one of these strip down and accept death….

Or don’t and have your tek armor ripped to shreds in seconds

How to tame

Step one : go into a cave

Step two : find one and lure it into the water( they can’t attack you while you’re in water)

Step three: feed it rotten meat

Step four: give it a name!

Hope this helps:)

Best way to tame is to simply get your self some bug repellent and a full ghilie suit. After you have these things simply feed old meat and sit from it at a distance and keep feeding

This is by far the best creature to do the Yeti Cave in. It has a little quirk where wild dinos don’t aggro on it

Single player uses:

1. Cave mount: They aren't powerhouses, but they can fit in small spaces and reflect damage back to their attacker.

2. Base defender, "Guard dog": They spit acid, you can have a bunch of them stationed on towers and set to aggressive turret mode.

Don’t try to knock it out as you can not knock it out it tames by feeding it by HAND!!

Acid spit collects corpses. Maybe bug? Also make sure you bring the saddle into the cave with you, or you will spend many aggravating hours trying to get it to follow you out, as it gets stuck on every little thing.

Attacking them makes you loose heath as well as them
