Tips & Strategies
Cosmos spawn mostly in the blue area, but also sometimes in the green area by portal and the river, if you see one hanging down you can enclose it with walls and a roof to trap it. As of 9/6/24, having chitin in your inventory and feeding it a plant species Z seed will automatically tame it once it dances. The intended taming mechanic is you wait for it to run, then it’ll play a game of red light green light with you, when it shines green run towards it, when it shines red, stop moving. Keep doing this and feed it chitin. After every feed it’ll run away and restart the game. Keep doing the game until it’s tamed. Once it’s tamed, it eats plant species Z seed. You can use it as a semi grappling hook, it won’t let you reel in but you can build momentum and swing like a pendulum. It’s other mode (R on PC) lets you fire webs at dinos to slow them down. As a shoulder pet it also automatically shoots webs at attackers. Send this to the top to help people see!

Babies eat raw meat for sure I am currently raising one
Don’t tame it during an earthquake. It counts you moving if you get shoved by the quake.
WARNING!! Be very careful swinging around with this cute little guy. He can run out of webs and drop you somewhere you definitely do not want to be in. When you're falling IMMEDIATELY after a swing, you don't take fall damage, but if you bump into a cliff or tree on the way down, you once again are at the mercy of the Ark gods.
Other than that, have fun being your friendly neighborhood Spooder Man 😁🫶
I never really post on any of dododex but if you didn't know, it likes it if you have chitin in your inventory to start the taming, or they'll ignore you 😭
For all. Plant z is the best food, but you always need chitin in your inventory to trigger the taming process!
Babies will eat raw meat, the narcotic type black mushrooms , and both species x and z seeds
Cosmo is an unreleased creature in Ark Survival Ascended. It is expected to appear on the upcoming Aberration map. Cosmo is a shoulder-mounted spider that is scared of players and will run away when it sees them. A tamed Cosmo can:
1. Scare off enemy creatures with its light.
2. Replace the grappling hook and possibly move like a Bloodstalker (though this is uncertain).
3. Dance.
Overall, it’s a good replacement for Sinomacrops, as they have very similar abilities. This information may not be accurate, as the spider is not yet released. The tentative release date is September 4, 2024.
Question what do baby cosmic eat?
Very easy tame just walk up to it with chitin in far right hotbar and feed it then it'll jump away when light red do not move when there light turns green proceed moving toward it feed again and rinse and repeat and there yours! Like the game red light green light!
Play red light green light with it. Passive tame
The webs can be switched between charged and non charged
NOTE CHARGED DOES NOT INFLICT ANY SORT OF AOE CHARGE AREA ONLY CREATURE SHOT WITH WEB GETS CHARGE
For this reason it’s good for fighting reapers
When on shoulder it is equipped as a web slinger in inventory or hot bar
Web capacity is dependent on level swing uses more than shoot
It has no charge light
Webs regen over time
For taming- walk up to him with a light pet with no aggressive creatures around & wait. After a few seconds he'll do a little dance & you can feed him.
At thd moment, Plant Species Z seeds are the best, but he will eat chitin in a pinch. Once he eats, he'll run off & use his glowing body to play a literal game of "Red light, Green light".
Stay still on red, run to him on green- be prepared to put your brakes on though- If you continue to move on red, it will reduce the tame effectiveness & he'll also attack you/any dino in his radius, including wild ones, so be careful, because those dino WILL attack your potential tame as a result.
Once you get up to him, feed him & he'll run & you play the game again. Rinse repeat til tamed! GL everyone 😄
After you feed it when it’s green, runaway a little bit as fast as you can and the spider will often stay in the same spot.
Depending on the area you encounter them, they can get stuck trying to get away from you to continue the red/green game. The taming progress slowly depletes in-between feedings, so the faster you can give em some space and get the lil guy lighting up red/green again, the better.
