How do I kill a purlovia? purlovia battling strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Sort of like the drop bears here in australia except they attack from below.
I was in the red woods
My first time ever seeing one
My last time ever seeing one
Jumpscared
I logged out
You are already dead
Kapros, Thylas, and now this. You are walking through the swamp and BOOM. A litle sarco jumps out of nowhere and carries you 200 m away.
You fly with your ptera and BOOM. A tiger jumps sacrifing itself and now you are falling from the sky.
You walk chill and relaxed and BOOM. An oversized rat jumps and kills you. Its very annoying
Found some along the river between the Redwoods and the volcano!
When I was building a trap to trap the Giga, I was trying to use my lv 605 Ptenarodon (Her name was Shelly) to lure the Giga into the trap. Suddenly there was this mtfk LITERALLY JUMP AT MY FACE and stunt me and my bird. The Giga then killed my bird and the Purlovia. Idk how did i get that unlucky, but after that I listed this guy to my most hated Dino, and I always look around whenever I fly around the snow forest

Cool thing a dire wolf can detect a untamed purlovia when it makes that sniffing emote a mask Icon pops up when a purlovia was near in the ground
One day, I was in the redwoods with my assault rifle killing terror birds, and then out of nowhere, this boy jumps out and scares the flip out of me. So I run back to Pterry Cruise, (my pteranodon) and fly as fast away as I could. I circled back and filled him with holes.
Literally the Viet Cong... no seriously these guys will **** you
Me: *flyin around on Agent III (Argentavis) in the Artic*
Me: ooo a river rock in the iceberg, how cool
The supposed river rock: and I hop
Me: it was not a river rock *grabs shotgun*
*4 shotgun shells later*
*continues flying with Agent III*
The app says it can't go through doorways, but my dead 150 direbear tame would beg to differ.....
There like the imposter from among us they pop out of the ground and kill
Having a problem with them in the Island‘s ice cave? Bring a Yutyrannus, to scare the Purlovias out of the ground!
I spent a devoted day using my Rex to only kill them and I am very proud
Confirmed data:
- This little annoyance can stun you off your mount AND your mount itself, the stun takes about 5 seconds for you, while for the mount about 8 seconds.
- They spawn in the snow areas of extinction, be careful.
Unconfirmed data:
- They team with a pack of sabertooths, usually ambushing you and letting the sabertooths maul you.
If it weren’t for the lovely nameplate mod this thing would surly get me by surprise every time XD jumped high enough once to knock me of klark my karkino
Be careful of these guys in the snow biome, these mixed with dire wolfs can kill anything, for example my poor argy. RIP Valk, I'll miss you.
I was flying low to the ground looking for a doedicurus and then suddenly, this 3 of these guys came out of no where and and killed me and my pteradon
RIP pteradon
When in redwood forest, keep shotgun handy for if one pops up while your out gathering. Suggest that if you plan to make base in redwood, make sure it’s a tree platform base set as high as possible, or the badgers’ll get ya.
Not recommended to go to the redwoods. You fly high, and thylas knock you off. Fly low, and these guys say hi.
