How do I kill a piranha? piranha battling strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
so i was out getting hide riding my parosaur and two mega piranahs snuck up on me. and those ones stuck to their name MEGA piranah, because they started doing like on thousand bite per second to it. im gonna miss that paro.
The Best way to kill these Is with a slingshot or bow. If you are a newbie do Not try to melee combat them.
If your trying to cross a river full of these just jump onto the back of a wild CARBONEMYS and wait for it to cross!
Spears work best hit it with a spear when underwater then lure it to land and hit it with a few spears for a kill
These things ate my moschops. Pray for derp
If you want to kill these things, here’s how. Keep at least two spears stacked, also make sure your tools are in your hotbar. Lead it towards you and then run up shore a little to make sure it can’t get you, then attack. Use a bow or spear (if bow have at least 30 arrows, it won’t take that much I just like to have extra) spear it or do any damage and boom, you killed it. PS if there are more around it kill them before harvesting body.
Mega Piranha’s are a major threat to most beginners, watch out for them guys! - Ark Player
This things are horrible they killed my direbear Tina and my bear can't move or attack so she get killed hayyyss rip Tina
Piranha = the ultimate noob killer
Hey guys. If u have still trouble with these guys, get a Sarco travel with u. Mount it or not is the same. Piranha´s flee from Sarco´s. U can have a Little Sarco, u not need a 100lvl+ guy. So u dont need to fight against these guys.
I was about to tame an otter when this thing killed it😓
These guys seem to be most active when it’s dark so don’t let you or your pets enter water at dusk I learned this the hard way people
1 up=1one pet saved
P.S
hope this helped😄
Do not bring land tames in water with these little guys around they will kill your tame and then you!
They killed my spino in the water while taming
A nice lvl is great in pvp 🤣🤘
Piranhas are a pain in the butt to deal with. Do NOT try to tame them or kill them at a low level. If you see them at all, leave the water immediately
Warning, these creatures will demolish low levels. Such a pain travelling across the water...
These guys can be tamed with the aberration fish basket but dam, this thing is annoying if you want to swim without any dino, taming one with an ab fish basket is 100% useless plus it's the most annoying thing ever for new players, but if you tame a high level army of these it can be op tho
NGL I saw these bastards take down a whole wild bronto lvl 100
I f$#&@$g hate these things,they killed my lvl6 spino and a raptor,lost my armor and died
