How do I kill a titanoboa? titanoboa battling strategies in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Was getting wood with pteradon and didn't know one was sneaking up on me. Luckily I had my pteradon on aggressive when resource collecting, pteradon killed the titanboa but was knocked out so I sat there spamming stim berries to get him awake again.
Note: Have flying dinos with and have on aggressive when anywhere near swamp
In the swamp biome the snakes can be found everywhere so try to find a land they can climb most rocks so flat ground is your best bet brace yourself against the rocks on the spots so they can't sneak behind you and you can get a clear shot
These things are very silent. Be wary when exploring caves and swamps, since you can barely hear them coming until it is too late. Despite the name and its inspiration, the creature is not very large. That makes their surprise even worse.

Keep stimberries with you because you will probably fall asleep when up against these guys
i HONESTLY dont think its worth it. id be better off a kapro or a sarco...i say just kill em and find a kapro or sarco. run from bary's. they knock you off your tames. and paralyze you. they are annoying. thanks for reading
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……
me:OMG I JUST MADE I HYBRID THE DILOPHOBOA
Friend:you just combined a boa constrictor and a dilo
my tribe:its a baby dilo+boa constrictor+deathworm
It says they are found in caves this is not true the will tranq you and team up with piranhas to share the feast
On mobile and on regular dont try to stand on a rock to escape these things. For some reason they decided to learn how to wall climb even though some rocks are unclimbable to them you wont know until this happens dont find out like I did
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
This is the reason new players should avoid the swamps. Unless you got some decent armor and an antidote, or are just an absolute legend, avoid these. Actually just avoid swamps all together.
Pro tip if you are in the swamp water at night time you are going to die because you can’t take out your torch so snakes will be right in front of you and you won’t know until they start attacking. Then you get knocked out and you slowly drown and get eaten. You know what just don’t go in the water
Titanoboa can be easily killed with a slingshot. Just back up and make sure you pumped weight and move speed and whenever it gets close turn and run jump once or twice and turn around and continue, they give metal tools sometimes so their great early game kills, just carry stim berries on your hotbar
i was latching on a tree in the redwoods with my tapejara when suddenly one of these guys started climbing up the tree where i was. i noped the frick out of there😂
Hit it with lots of damage before it can bite you too much on mobile. If it doesn’t bite you too much then you won’t get knocked out.
You usually sea these little douchebags in or near a swamp and they are super dangerous if you’re low level because without good armor and a whole lot of stimulants or stimberries you are screwed
Best way I've
Learned to deal with these pests is to go at them with two one distract and the other go in from behind with a pike
The easiest way to kill a titan boa for me is a bow and arrow
If you were building a base in the swamps for some dumb reason, be aware these boi’s crawl under spikes, at least in mobile
Found it easer to walk backwards with a weapon and the will not hit u
