Encountering Tips

How do I kill a arthropluera? arthropluera battling strategies in ARK: Survival Evolved.
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.
They CANNOT attack you while in the water!!!
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
Attacking them makes you loose heath as well as them

How to always win against arthropluera
dont go in caves
By the way, they are on mobile, unfortunately
They actually can fit though doors learned that the hard way.
WARNING!!!!!
This beast s attack can 3 shot you in full flak armor
As well as break it and most ppl alredy know this but whats new to me is that with their attack they can break your wepons too, like wipe durability in seconds.
RIP my ascendant sword
There’s nothing better than spitting acid on a creature’s face without them even knowing
They’re found in the cave where you get the artifact of the hunter
I found out why this mofo breaks my damn armor in no time!
If you hit any Arthro by melee it will return 50% of the damage you dealt to him which is the reason why players get destroyed in one or two hits along with armor your high damage melee weapon can kill you(maybe in just one hit if you wep damage is higher than your health) in a fight against an arthropleura so that’s the reason why it is recommended to fight with your strongest ranged weapon
You may encounter this giant insect in cave, many people are scared just because it can one shot you even in full TEK suit, but don't get fooled by their looks and stats, they are slow and their attack recovery speed is lower than you, and they can shoot poisonous fluid from distance (super EZ to dodge) and their radar is short so best choice is...... You name it!!! A bow. Gauge them from distance and pow!!! Most of them are usually not that tough so good luck. (Don't fight them if other hostile are present around the area) don't mess up.
THEY REFLECT BACK HALF OF THE DAMAGE!! dont know if its only in mobile
Does anybody know where to find these on ark mobile i would like one for protection when scouting and i havent found any yet.
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 ✌️
Run only will break any type of armor in one to two spits
If you wack it with a melee weapon he will return the damage back to you,I got one-shot with my own sword,it takes more damage from range so bow,pistol,and the best one Shotgun
They aren't scary or hard to deal with when you get a good bow
