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.

Snakes... why did it have to be snakes....

⬆️ If you have seen Indiana Jones

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?

Roses are red

Violets are blue

If you hear something hissing

You're probably screwed

Use ranged weapons against titanoboas and watch your surroundings as the can team up and knock you out.

I found a cool Paracera. Then I went to walk past a tree, and then what I see is a pair of frills attached to an angry snake head! I ran up a hill, but I saw a raptor somewhere up there before. I hope I make it down alive…

For new players: do not get hit by this at all or you will get knocked out. It will continue to bite you until you die. Please like this is my first post.

In real life, Titanoboa was fifty feet long and lived in the jungles of Colombia 60 million years ago. It was a massive, definitely rideable monster that could squeeze the living crap out of you.

Ark made it a smol poisoner instead of a giant constrictor. it’s called TITANoboa. It’s supposed to be big.

Other fact: The irl Titanoboa lived alongside and possibly preyed on the irl carbonemys

A hiss is all you'll hear

As an indicator I'm here

One bite from my snout

Then it's lights out

And your tamed friends might disappear.

Be sure to bring stim berries! And a gun. And a machete. And a flamethrower. Would you believe me if I said I actually like snakes? ~CL1

If you see one of these don't just run. Turn around walk backwards while using a pike to poke it in the eyes. Keep your distance well and you'll kill it without even taking a hit.

So here's a very good tip for newbies in ARK swamps.

If hunting, target the Boa first. Make sure you kill them!

Here's why. About the Boas, they have a good poison. They might knock out someone with just 2-3 bites. Not so deadly, but when you're asleep, other predators might kill you. You don't wake up quickly. Bring a good pet and some stimulant. You might need a ranged weapon too.

Boa= Titanoboa

I found one in swamp but it uh but my pteranodon and now it’s unconscious and now I’m stuck in the swamp please send help

I have built a base near the swamp and every day and night is the worst because of these mfs :(

To collect eggs, build a 2 room pen (Dino gates work great as walls and dividers). Agro a bunch of TBs and lead them to one side of the pen then trap them in. Lead them back and forth between the sides as they drop eggs.

If it is a boa, then it should kill with constriction, now venom, boas kill with constriction, vipers kill with venom.

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

THEY CAN SWIM!!!! Don't run into water THEY WILL CHASE YOU!!!

If you are near a swamp you will eventually run into one of these. Make sure to have stim berries in your hot bar for escaping these monsters. They quickly counter the poison so you dont pass out and become easy prey

Owe. You just got bit! Eat a few Stimberrys, quick. They reduce tapor. Eat up!

A few headshots with even a normal bow can take down high level boas in no time.
