How do I kill a pulmonoscorpius? pulmonoscorpius battling strategies in ARK: Survival Evolved.
Hi I’m MastaCheeks420… here is my story
One day I ventured into one of the caves that you can find on the missions (ark Mobile) and it was a VERY GOOD place for metal and rocks etc. Only downside was the titanaboa and the spider along with the scorpions (plz don’t judge I can’t remember names) but at the time I didn’t know about them. There was this cliff that I didn’t see and I fell down into it. NOTE: I’m about level 40+ and unlocked the primitive longneck rifle, primitive double barrel shotgun, and primitive crossbow (no attachments). Lucky I had 50 rifle shells and 46 shotgun-shells, with a handful of arrows in the crispy crossbow 🤘. So here is the layout of the cave… and yes I know it’s a freaking essay OK JUST DEAL WITH IT! But anyways the layout is first the cliff… no way up it’s too steap to climb and I had no resources on me other than food and water. So along with the wall on your back you have a front section of a “Y” or aka a fork. So I decide while I’m in there to find the artifact that was in there. I found it and I had just wasted 26 rifle rounds taking out 1000 hp+ scorpions so after the artifact I went to the right side of the “Y” and there is where it all started MY FIRST INCOUNTER WITH THE TITANA BOA!!! (But not the first time encountering the scorpions) No joke I thought the guys were tuff as nails but in all reality they are just a huge target. (Doom music kicks in) With the shotgun I started baiting them around a corner to their demise. I would have to run a few trying to reload the double barrel. But they were just easy targets. The tough ones were the spiders and scorpions. I didn’t want to deal with them so what I did was just full on sprint through the whole thing (stamina is at 240 while speed in near 250 so I’m a speedy boy) but I run, swim and parkour over all the critters and when I get to a choke point I am able to gather some wood and fiber to make 1 spike wall!!! And while the spike is building I have a horde of titana boas and arachnids in a big ol’ wave. Like no joke on each other trying to get a piece of me. So I’m blasting away and as soon as I ran out of shotgun bullets the spike wall was finished! I placed it down at the choke point and all of them died! I was able to rack up 4 LEVELS!!! I made my way out like nothing happened with half health and literally dieing of hunger… I had taken about 400 arrows in all from harvesting the titana boas and 804 chitin from spiders+scorpions!! And on my way out feeling like a champ… and then a level 40 Alfa raptor comes and stomps the crap out of me 🥲
Moral of the story… don’t smoke crack!
If u read this far your either a champ or a man/woman with nothing better to do with their life so you mine as well hit the up 🆙 button while u at it 👌 ima post this on the other species I encountered there as well.
Level you fortitude, it'll allow you to take more torpor before being knocked, trust me, a few boosts and you'll see the difference, I know it's a stat alot of people dont like boosting, but it really helps for caves and stuff. It also raises your hyperthermic and hypothermic, meaning you dont get as hot or as cold.
They're very slow so it's easy to kill them with a bow. You can also stab them with a pike or a spear while walking backwards without getting hit.
They are at beaches a lot also in the mountains I found some in the long grass there’s probably gonna be some but in the caves that’s where they are most common
Up so new people can see this
(I love helping by the way)
Me: is level 14
Scorpion thing: level 30
Me: Passed out 4 20 minutes
Do not pet a snip snap dog. It will snip snap. A lot.
So, I like going into caves as like a adventure, I ventured into every cave except the strong cave (I’m on mobile) so the next cave on the list for me to complete is the immune cave… Very high leveled creatures in there, I saw a level 275 pulmo, I couldn’t tame it, so I formed a INGENIUS PLAN, I killed it, took its implant, painfully grabbed 48 amber, and revived it, so I knocked it out aNNDD! It WORKED, It is now level 422, and it’s a beast. But don’t go into the cave unprepared or you will get eaten alive :)
for starters, these dinos have a sting that can make your torpidity go up (makes you sleep) then they kill you. Beware, they mainly live in caves and near mountains. Yes there is a saddle and you can tame them with tranq arrows ( I recommend darts). They dont fit through everthing thogh.
Up if this was helpful for you.
I need to know where they spawn at
In ark mobile these guys arent affected by the bug repellent
!!! DO NOT TRY TO KILL THESE THINGS WITH MELE WEAPONS !!!
Shoot it with a bow or crossbow or whatever from a distance. They will sting you, and knock you unconscious. Very dangerous. I learnt that the hard way :P
Hi I'm trix the otter I saw one of these guys when I was hunting for compies it tried to attack me luckily a Doedicurus killed it but another came out of nowhere my friend joined and helped me kill the Pulmonoscorpios
Hi I'm Trix The Otter agian this is the 2nd part of the otter story so yeah after Tricks died to a Pulmonoscorpius I found out that it was my enemy tracker it was his Pulmonoscorpius which has been unclaimed so I took revenge with my Pulmonoscorpius pack his Pulmonoscorpius was killed and then he got eaten and I destroyed his base
These things spawn in freakishly high number and level in the swamp cave. They are always above 270 for me. Lost a ton of tames trying to get the artifact because of the torpor they do.
Fairly easy to farm chitin from. Get a raptor/saber tooth and lightly encumber them. Agro the scorpions and walk backwards, make sure you’re slower than the scorpion. You’ll have less speed but better knock back so they will barely ever be able to land a hit on you
I keep running into these things in caves and if it weren’t for my wood shield I wouldn’t have escaped in time before the venom kicked in.
If you raise your fortitude it won't ko you with 1 hit
Two went one on won with my two high level brontos….that was not smart
This creature is either your best friend or your worst enemy. I recommend hammering speed, damage, and health. If tamed, it is a great early swimmer and good at helping tame other creatures. It doesn't make much noise so it can easily sneak up on you. Run away and shoot with tranq arrows. If you get stuck in it due to jumping or lag. Well. You can kiss you're butt good bye.
If you have pike they cant reach you with stinger, and usually cant with claws, i think its the same with spear
