If you see one, DON'T go near it, it will knock you out, and if it doesn't kill you, it is so far down in the ocean, you will drown, my suggestion shoot with a crossbow, far away from it.

Actually basilos are completely immune to this thing!

Fun fact. These bois came before breathable air if they are wut I think they are

You can outrun it, use a spear if your low level. Should be tamable...

Today is my first time encountering this or maybe I have before but never noticed, this creature is wildly strong at knocking you out. I got one shot knock from this where this thing was only level 150 on ark mobile. It is best to kill these if you are taming a tuso or any sea creature at the bottom of the sea. Never ignore them or underestimate their possibilities. I was shocked to see this. It’s scary too.

This thing IS NOT a problem if you have a high/medium level basilosaurus you can even hunt them for black pearls all though avoid it when you dont have a mount that can protect you

Usually can be found around herbivore island in the deep deep sea they drop a small amount of black pearls but if you grind them with tribemates it shouldnt be a problem

Just get yourself a high level baryonyx and the die easily. Just get somewhere safe to let the torpor run out

Use range on them and skin them for resources. Just dont fall asleep on the job

Saw one on fjordur and decided to kill it with my trike, but 30 seconds later I'm unconscious, as is the trike, and then I wake up as it kills my trike. Moral of the story: don't fight level 150's on level 80 trikes

These are so dangerous for human life they can instantly knock u out with any armor of stimulant and then u can't do anything use dinos to kill them if u want

Make sure you never ever go near these sea scorpions. They do loads of torpor and can kill you. I suggest shooting them with crossbows from afar. Hope this helps!

The bane of my existence. The very reason why Look under my bed at night, I fear that one day when im sleeping ever so soundly I hear a faint noise and I wake startled, wandering what it was, I step out of bed and then I see it THE FORBIDDEN LOBSTER next thing I know im feeling sleepy I look down and I see that it bit me… I fear only the worst good bye cruel world.

These are tamable with fish baskets. At least on PC

Was on ragnarok, and was near the bay. THIS THING Sneak attacked me, and I was lucky my Dinosaur were with me and high lvls. It knocks out any pet you have on your shoulder as well. It ko my jerboa. Hope it helped! I’m still mad thou

If any of you overconfident psychopaths want to, these are essentially just the deadly trilobites of the deep sea

I got 200 black perls just harvest then with pixaxe

If you on mobile, you can find this on bottom right of the map, around the Herbivore Island. Just ride dolphin, so you can bite anything that live on the sea without taking an aggro (even Mosa and Plesio).

I was travelling on my mosa until I saw one of these sea scorpions I tried taming it but realised, they weren’t tameable I went up to it and it one shot me into a deep sleep I was wearing scuba thankfully but then jellyfish came out of no where and killed me

As long as you don't stick to the ocean floor you should be safe, cause they don't swim upwards

On mobile, You’ll find these in the deep ocean south of Herbavore Island. Usually about 2 or 3 are there. Take a Dolphin to get your photo of these, and they’re a breeze☺️
