How do I kill a titanoboa? titanoboa battling strategies in ARK: Survival Evolved.
Snakes... why did it have to be snakes....
⬆️ If you have seen Indiana Jones
If you're in an area that has a lot of these, put stimberries in your hotbar so if you get bit, spam those so you don't knock out, if you knockout, you're dead.
The dossier says:
"Found only in the dark caves of the island"
They are already wrong! It should say something more like:
"Found everywhere but the dark caves of the island, this creature will gladly ruin your day by jumping out and killing you as soon as you even think about going to the swamp. Nearly impossible to tame because it has to be tamed via passive which is very difficult to do. Worst of all you need to feed them fertilized eggs. Why can't it e a little easier?
Very idiosyncratic theories indicated jesus jesus held
To the guy who said that the ark species are made up they really aren’t there almost all real Dino’s that have lived
RUNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!!! IF OVER LEV.350
Hate the sound they make when they are creeping up on you 😨
If it gets you off guard run like hell
This is scattered and common in swamps, or I think since I didn't visited the swamp until I got the pteranadon saddle, also this is an ez kill with a bow and arrow and gives prime meat so kill these things if you have a ranged weapon for free prime meat
EZ way to kill is use crossbow or bow and shoot it’s head
easy to kill with a bow and arrows! if you encounter one, sprint back a bit and stop to shoot. a good bow will take it down in two shots. decent source of meat, just don't get knocked out! i play on mobile so i don't know if these things are true for other versions of the game.
It's best to keep them at range with a bow or crossbow, don't try and knock them out at all. Be wary of how quick they can sneak up on you at all times near their spawn locations. Make sure you keep stimberries on your hot bar so that way you can still access them if you get bit by a Titanoboa as they will usually knock you out. Upgrading your fortitude can help counteract this so be sure to put some levels into your fortitude early on. Titanoboa's are easy to outpace but be very wary as they can climb over most obstacles so don't bother thinking your safe by hiding behind a rock or a steep slope. Killing these guys is pretty simple with any ranged damaging weapon, just run a couple of steps, turn around and fire, repeat. Make sure you keep an eye on your stamina as it can be easy to forget about it during a battle, running out of it allows the Titanoboa to catch up to you pretty quickly so manage it correctly.
Quickslot stimberry
So long as you don’t get bitten roughly 3-4 times, a titanoboa or other tranquilizer creatures can’t do much against you. They inflict torpor(roughly 40 torpor per hit), which leaves you prone to attack from stronger creatures or swarms. So long as you keep your distance(titanoboas are easy to detect with their movement audio).
Just an idea …don’t go building your first base next to the swamp life will be a lot more easy that way… oh yeah also don’t do it on hardcore…. what have I done……
You Can Get A Lot Of Prime Meat If You Kill This Bad Boi
Titanabia scary don't take useless
Basically impossible to not find these in the swamp, if you have a strong tame you should be fine, but if you don’t/bad torpor or both, just run as fast as you can depending on level, as that’s your best chance if you don’t have a strong tame/have bad torpor
POV me: getting loot crate

If you saw this snake on cave either fight or run but i suggest to run cuz they are gonna make your torpo full and then other cave creature will r*pe you just like on anime called goblin slayer.
