What are tips for cnidaria? Tips and strategies for cnidaria in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Ride a basilo into battle for these guys. You won't get dismounted and basilo are unaffected by the shocks.
Ok for everyone looking for an easy way to get tons of shocking tranq darts just get a CROSSBOW not a normal bow a CROSSBOW go in the water and get them to follow you (you can shoot or just get close) then you can just kill em in the water cause crossbows can be shot underwater! Yay! no dead dinos except for the Cnidaria!
Do not touch it or els you and your tame will die
At night, these things rise from the ground in the northern parts of the map. Then, they float there like the useless glitches they are. But it’s pretty to look at, and sometimes kills random pterodactyl that pass by so....
I fell in some water and couldn’t move the only people who could save me were probably spongbob and patrick
l lost my bary to these vermins a few days ago lesson learned dont take your bary into cnidaria infested water
I got a spino and a minute later an alpha meg crash me into these monsters and kill it! T-T the ark didn’t want to me keep a spino
If you are in a lake and u see this run because when it hits you.you will be stunned and the damage it pretty good and if you want to kill it.kill it with a bow on land.Drops:Bio toxin
Hmmm, let’s see, if you see them, all leveled players should do this…….KILL EM! DRAG THEM ALLLLL THE WAY TO THE SHORE AND JUST KILL EM. Use your bow, clubs, ANYTHING! But maybe not fists tho. P.s, never let your Dino in the water, please, they can come and destroy your Dino with no problem. And P.P.S, they drop a valuable item, but take notice you really need them around level 90. They can help you with knocking out Dino’s! Stay safe from them!😉
How To Kill Cnidaria
=================
Cnidarias are very dangerous creatures, they spawn in all costs and even in deep ocean, they have an ability that stun almost all creatures and players, when you get close, they chase you until you get to land, DO NOT USE MOUNTS TO KILL IT!!!
The simplest way I found to kill Cnidaria is:
Make a spear (lv 2) and get close to a Cnidaria, keep distance, when he/she gets close get to land quickly and start attacking, if he/she is not on your range, try again until he/she gets close to the coast, so you can atack.
The Cnidaria give a resource called "Biotoxin" And it's basically a better narcotic, so you can farm those and use narcotics for tranq arrows, and if you're playing in mobile you can make "Toxic Arrows" (lv 61).
You can found Cnidaria in all costs except in the stone pilars in the south (coast).
The dinos that can kill Cnidaria are Basilosaurus, Baryonyx (in my experience) and mega piranha.
Hope this helped!!!
Thank you for reading.
Use a metal sword to one-hit kill them, works on any level
I watched helpless as they killed my newly tamed megaladon and bronto.
Use a bloodstalker to lure them close to shore then web them in. It is both hilarious and rewards you with biotoxin.
I think these are the most annoying water Dino after piranhas but to kill them make them chase you closer to the shore and the start either shooting them witch is the best way but I use a spear because i don’t carry bows or slings with me
Easy KO
Just get bow and decent amount arrows, have good aim, shoot them from shore. They don't even move! Talk about brainless.
TAME BASILOSAURUS!! They do not affect the Basi at all whether you’re using it as your mount or a follow tame. If mount tame you won’t be shocked or knocked off while killing or if follow tame use it to kill them so they don’t kill you and whatever Dino you’re mounted on.
P.S. just incase so I’m thorough and not misleading any “noobs” or beginners to tame the Basi it’s a “passive tame” or “non-violent” so taming it does not involve knocking it out. Tame an Itchyosaurus(also passive tame but they don’t try to attack you) once you tame the Itchy use it to tame the Basi otherwise the Basi will attack you
Be sure to be on land when you see these guys, they have long range vision.
Also, NEVER EVER use melee, just ranged, these jellyfish are sure a nuisance but give bio toxin which is basically the narcotic twice its stats
If you’re in the water without a tame, as long as it’s shallow backpedaling is almost fast enough to outrun these suckers. Although their stun renders you unable to move, you can still stab it, and they’re squishy.
