Player-written tips for taming, using, and fighting the Pulmonoscorpius in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.

Hint: Don't jump and get stuck between their claws when they are knocked out, then you can't move. I learned that from experience.

I don't know why the guy saying they're not affected by Bolas is at the top. I just hit a level 5 wild in the mountain area with a bola right in the legs and it froze in place perfectly, no issues. BOLAS WORK, BUT YOU HAVE TO HIT THE LEGS, THE THIN SKITTERY EASY TO MISS LEGS.

On Astraeos in the desert areas, GIANT SCORPION KINGS AND QUEENS CAN SPAWN. These have a lot more health and inflict bleed if they hit you but they are also the only source of nameless venom on the map! Very useful to kill if you want to raise a rock drake

In my opinion, these guys are the best, go on, say i am weird.

First, they are very easy to tame, all you need is a few spoiled meats and a bola, tranq arrows or even slingshots will do.

Second, after they are tamed, they are super useful, you can use them for cheap creature…

When I was a fresh noob to ark I'd tame 3 scorps. I'd ride one and have the other 2 set to follow and there wasn't anything that could stop us

Ok these guys need a TLC patch.

First patch: being able to choose to use its tail for less damage but more torpor, or use its claws for more damage but no torpor.

Second new ability: grabbing a small Dino with its claws only being able to use its tail for attacking while…

The higher the melee damage, the higher the torpor. Also upgrade movement speed so it can close the gap

This is less of a tip and more of a question, but if I level up a pulmonascorpias melee damage will it increase the torpor???

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.

Bola it, shoot it in the head with tranq darts, feed it spoiled meat! A very effective and easy tame. Be careful though, they're hard to see in grassy areas. I was taming a sabertooth once when it came up out of nowhere, I went unconscious before I could even run away. It…

Thorny dragon or Pulmonoscorpious. Which is better?

Thornys and scorpions are some of the only nock-out tames in the game. They both deal a good amount of torpor, but which is better to knock?

Using the stats of a lvl 1 equs, dodoex says that it will take 10 stings from a…

Scorpions make a great early seafaring mount if you hold the jump key ( space bar by default) a scorpion will float above the water allowing you to get past most Puranas without being attacked, this can be extremely useful for crossing dangerous rivers or even oceans.

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…

To anyone wondering why you can't deal torpor with these guys.

You do, even on mobile.

The thing is, for some God unknown reason, you can't see torpor in creatures with the spy glass while on a tame, if you get off you will be able to see that you did inflict torpor.
