How do I kill a piranha? piranha battling strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
This is another moment where you knock out your tri mate take his flippers and run.
You can tame these with the fish baskets lol I have 5 of them for backup in the ocean
Tryed to tame a BEAUTIFUL pteranodon. Out of fish so I went hunting and… these things killed me…. Three times 🤦🏻♀️ Bruh
-Saco master
Having a mount that can attack in all directions can save you from a piranha swarm! Highly recommend the Baryonyx for it’s spinning attack. Won’t stun them like larger creatures but if melee is high enough it can 1 shot and harvest them all in one swoop. If that’s hard to find, a Moschops can kill piranhas swimming behind it but it won’t harvest fish for some reason. Useful in caves!
These little monsters are savages and go on killing streeks.I hate them!!!!!!!!!!
Notification your giga lvl60 has been killed by a mega a hole
Having a tamed Sarco with you will ward these guys off
When you're done trying to knock out tame a dino, DO NOT LET IT GO IN THE WATER. I was once taming a thorny dragon in the water ( I know it's dumb he could die) but once I was ALMOST DONE, a piranha came with it's friends and ate him up. So I repeat, DO NOT LET ANY DINO YOURE TRYING TO TAME GO IN THE WATER.
By the way use ranged weapons to kill the little but holes
Low level character & dino destroyers!!! They rip your high end armour apart before killing you, after have killing your dino if you were unlucky. Always check before crossing rivers. (Especially a plague on The Island Map)
These guys SUCK but pikes kill them really fast!.
DO NOT BRING YOUR DODOS CLOSE TO DEE’S DOODS. They will rip them to shreds. I went in with 1 dilophosaur and 5 dodos, and came out the other side with 1 dodo and 1 dilophosaur.
If there is one there’s about nine to fifteen
Don’t bring land Dino’s in the water without a water Dino force
To kill these guys for low level swim across a small river, beach them, and kill them to get their meat. I have done this several times it works mostly.
A nightmare for lower levels & those that cross rivers frequently with land-based mounts, but can be easily dispatched of once you have a decently capable amphibious mount like Baryonyx or an Ichthyornis. However, if neither of those are available, a Parasaur will do to avoid them.
Best way to kill them is dip yourself in the water to agro them then climb out of the water when they get somewhat close, for some reason they jump out of the water and instantly die.
I HATE PIRANHAS!!! I was with my ankylosaurus and my sister was on another one, and we were going across the water when like 6-7 attacked my sister’s anky. IT DROWNED IN THE END. A LEVEL 28-29 ANKY DROWNED TO PIRANHAS.BE WARNED OF THESE LITTLE DEVELS
Can someone tell the ARK devs to just remove them from the game
Thank God these bastards aren't on scorched earth
