ARK: Survival Evolved & Ascended Companion
Tips & Strategies
The tickle chicken is the grim reaper of ark, you see it, it’s too late and you dead, I’ve died many times due to this chicken of steroids, no joke, I fricken hate these things, and I also lost all of my stuff in a dungeon because of a frog and I had guns, a pike, and a heck of a lot of good stuff, and I’m REALLY MAD because I can’t get it back, and I had nothing besides stone tools and cloth armor at my base, and my pteranodon was still outside the red obe, I’m upset but I had a raptor and I got my Mississippi (Pteranodon) back, but now I have to do the grind again to get my stuff back

If you see this thing it will kill you, your friends, your family, some guy down in Africa, and an alien on another planet.
Hug the chicken
Trust me just hug it
You do not find tickle chicken. Tickle chicken finds you.
Kill these tickle chickens whenever they're near your base so they don't cause problems later on. I was just chilling in my base until a theri somehow wandered in and killed my anky. Thankfully all my tames were there to kill it. Rest in peace Tank, I forgot to take you off passive stance
Kill all of them. I left my Argy (Balerion) alone for one second to collect berries. When I returned Balerion was killed by one of these shit.
One kill= one pray for Balerion. He was the best
Speed 400 god console doesn’t work,they will get you,even if it’s a lake.they will get you.
A level 10 did 4000 damage to our level 137 Giga, and almost killed a level 200+ Argie. Be very very careful with these guys.
Anyone who is saying to run from these clearly doesn’t understand how fast they are.
Do not come close, because we're not passive.
When you get too close, we become aggressive.
We can kill hundreds of things that's in our way, all just in one day.

Please man, if you are new to the game, and see one of these, TURN 180 DEGREES AROUND, AND RUN FOR YOUR LIFE.
I know what you're thinking: I can take one of those! No problem!
Yeah, that's what I thought too. That's how I lost my lvl 28 Dilo Phospho, lvl 27 Dilo Sauro, two lvl 6 dilos (yes I am a Dilo addict- why do you ask?), AND lvl 6 Raptor Resilience- along with several dino eggs I was about to use to tame the darn thing. Those were all my first tames, by the way. (R.I.P to them- rest their souls, likely still haunting me to this day for my stupidity. I deserve it :D)
Trust me, YOU CAN NOT DEFEAT A THERIZINOSAURUS WITH ANY MELEE WEAPONS WITHOUT DECENT ARMOR!
Oh. And bolas don't work on them either. As if the LITERAL DAGGER HANDS WEREN'T ENOUGH.
If you see one of these early game, DO NOT ENGAGE. It's not worth it, and it will cause heartbreak seeing your tames die to these Edward Scissorhand spawns from the pits of Tartarus.
If you must tame one, please use a trap or load em up with tranq arrows from a VERY GENEROUS DISTANCE. They don't look it, but these things are SPEED. If it starts running at you, either pray to a god of your choice, or get on your mount and start running like your life depends on it- because it very well does.
Overall, if you don't have an Army of Trikes and Raptors to back you up or a getaway flier, I do not recommend confrontating one of these things. They are deadly- if the samurai sword fingers don't scream death and doom, I don't know what to tell you.
