Encountering Tips

How do I kill a arthropluera? arthropluera battling strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Shoot in the head! It seems they die faster
Their acid shot will destroy your armor. Duck and weave from the spit. Projectiles hurt it more, and they will destroy your melee equipment.
Don’t go hand to hand with this thing. If you hit it with your sword it will break immediately. They also have an acid shot, so if you’re running from it make sure to run zig zag to avoid the acid. If you’re going spelunking, I highly suggest bringing a high level raptor, thylacleo, or deinonychus to help you kill the arthropluera
If you find this creature and your not on a dino accept your fate but if you are on a dino just take off your armor to save that juicy durability
The arthro has thorns X I try to hit it and it 4 shot me
If you see this thing. Do not think of attacking it. Run,run and R U N unless you have enough dinos to kill it. Literally the worst thing you can probably meet in Ark. Its mostly within the caves and if you see it you will recognise it from miles, a centipede with a metal eatting mouth literally ate my metal spear like a noodle for breakfast.
If you find one, try to get a headshot because guns do 3x damage to them, so a headshot should be a death blow.
These things are soooooooooo deadly stay away from these
These guys can destroy your armour fast and can break any structure, don’t let that spit of theirs touch you
It will triple your pain if you try to fight it during early to mid game
I met this in a dungeon it is lvl 700 it just spit acid to me, it break my ascendant armor and died,it one bit me, if you encounter this in dungeon, make sure you have a ascendant compound bow to kill this thing, you need to be fast, just hit and run, easy as that
If you find a big 10000000 of these in redwood cave were you get artifact of immune run plus there are a ton of bugs in immune cave bring bug repellent.
He protec
He attack
He say goodbye to your flak
DOE ENGAGE TAMING WITH THESE DUDES WHEN IN WATER ONLY!!! THEIR MOST FAVOURITE FOOD IS SOME BREW, ITS PURPLE.
Dont f*ck with these gyes because if your not wearing flak of riot u will get murder because they break your armour very easily so keep your distance -Big Bill
It doesn't take much to knock these out so too kill them you can knock them out first.
These things are soooo annoying they like two shot you
Do not hold anything in your hands that would be hard to repair while fighting these guys their acid spit does massive damage to the item your holding. Also your armor will take this damage too so my advice is just to avoid them at all costs.
BE EXTREMELY CAREFUL when seeing these creatures. Three high-level arthros can almost kill a 450 level Baryonyx (and yes, I was mounted on that Bary).
FYI grenades and rocket launchers work great to kill these things 👍
