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.
FYI: They delete metal weapons durability way fast so go with a Long neck rifle and shoot from a distance, close combat with them in a tight spot equals death
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!
They CANNOT attack you while in the water!!!
He protec
He attac
But most importantly he says good bye to your flak
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 always win against arthropluera
dont go in caves
This thing is stupidly overpowered it makes no sense 😡😱
Only true ark players understand how scary these guys are.
r.i.p. ascended riot gear.😭😭😭
It's so easy to kill them as long as you have a shotgun keep going back and aim to their head one shot is enough if you miss the second one will kill just keep your distance their bite is soooo strong
They actually can fit though doors learned that the hard way.
There’s nothing better than spitting acid on a creature’s face without them even knowing
Be mindful that arthro spit can break or severely damage even high-quality armor in a single hit. This is most notably a problem in swamp cave since if your gas mask or scuba breaks you will start taking poison gas damage. Stay safe in caves and bring some backup armor.
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.
Attacking them makes you loose heath as well as them
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 ✌️
By the way, they are on mobile, unfortunately
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.
Tamable in the volcano biome of genesis
I was wearing full metal armor in a cave then this came out of nowhere and spit at me and one shotted me.if you see one,RUN FOR YOU’RE DEAR SWEET LIFE!!!!!!!
