ARK: Survival Evolved & Ascended Companion
Tips & Strategies

Best way to deal with these things. Shotgun and raft combo. You sail the raft close to them, stand on edge of raft, and shoot them point blank. These jellyfish are worse than the Box jellyfish and or man o’ war jellyfish we have ILR, and need to be exterminated.
Side note. The raft and shotgun combo works for exterminating other hazardous sea life as well. Like so that new players will know how to deal with these things efficiently.
Another side note. Rafts are perhaps the best thing to have if you plan on taming any sea creatures. Put a generator and an auto turret on a raft to make a mobile safe zone for your aquatic tames. It really helps.
Another side note. Auto turrets are mid to late game, generators are mid game. Be wise with your engrams, and be sure to follow the below strategy.
From level 1-75 unlock all the weapons and saddles, then produce two of each saddle. After which, you’ll want to use mind wipe to reset your engrams and unlock all the armor. Produce two sets of each armor. Mind wipe a second time, then use your engrams to unlock whatever else it is you may need. That mind wipe is perhaps the most useful recipe in the game. Best way to get the recipes is to go to a cave and farm the creatures in there for recipes and ammo. Always be sure to check the inventory of everything you kill, you might find some useful gear.
More Cnidaria Encountering Tips
If a cnidaria killed my spino, boy i would be mad. i lost my sarco to cnidarias, a scare with my icthy with cnidarias, and almost got my megalceros killed by some. ( he is dead now D:) I kill any of these that i can. The dossier says that they are passive, but aggresive when approched, NO! as soon as i step in the water these attack, and they litterally don't move at all, they just sit there and chill until you or a tame steps in the water. one like=one prayer for my deceased sarco, Gatorade (you can find his story in sarco) and one member of the cnidaria hate club.
This is the kind of creature I'd happily hunt to extinction...

Evil Jellyfish Of Doom: "So You Have Chosen Death"
Real story 😭 1 👆 = 1 R.I.P for chaos , grim and nebula 😭😭😭
If you are reading this it seems your underwater adventure came to a shocking conclusion.
i threw a spear at a group of these guys, then my sarco went to kill them and I watched in horror as she flew through the air dead, now all I do is kill every last one of these guys
Admit it. if you're reading this you definitely lost at least a dino or two to these guys.
"Deepest parts of the ocean" yeah right! You run into these guys on the surface.
I think that the devs need to reconsider some of the creatures in ark. With the jellies and electrophorus, it's too much. Especially on fjordur. There are hundreds of eels EVERYWHERE in the shallows! I don't mean reconsider as removal, but they need to be nerfed. No person I know tames mosas, plessies, or dunkies anymore because of those two creatures. They've made a lot of ocean creatures irrelevant. My first water creature is always a basilo. And that's all I need, because what's the point of anything else.

KILL THE JELLIES. AVENGE YOUR FALLEN DINOS.
I lost my level 305 giga just earlier today to these guys, I hate them.
