Aberrant Achatina taming video guide

More about taming the Aberrant Achatina

Check the taming results to see how long it takes to tame the Aberrant Achatina, what effectiveness you'll achieve, and how many bonus levels it gains. Better food means better results.

Below is a breakdown of knockout weapon requirements for the Aberrant Achatina across various creature levels. Space your shots to let torpor accumulate - rapid firing risks killing it before knockout.

To simplify the knockout, immobilize the Aberrant Achatina first with Bola or Bear Trap. A Argentavis can also pick it up and drop it into a taming pen for a controlled knockout.

The table shows how many sedatives you'll need to keep the Aberrant Achatina unconscious through the full taming duration. Bio Toxin is twice as potent as Narcotics (80 vs 40 Torpor per use), while Narcoberries work in a pinch at just 7.5 Torpor each. At 0.3 Torpor drain per second, apply narcotics proactively - a wakeup mid-tame wastes everything.

The real-time timers below help you monitor Torpor drain and Food depletion during the tame. The torpor timer alerts you when narcotics are needed. The starve timer tracks Food depletion for starve-taming, where you let the food bar drop before placing all food at once.

ARK: Survival Ascended features the Aberrant Achatina as a tamable, herbivore creature that survivors will encounter in the wild. Classified under the Variant group.

Its base Melee Damage sits at 106%, giving it solid damage output. Starting at 75 Health, it's glass-cannon fragile. With 100 base Stamina, the Aberrant Achatina has low stamina reserves. Weight capacity starts at 60, giving it very limited carrying capacity.

To tame the Aberrant Achatina, you need to knock it unconscious using torpor weapons, then feed it while it's down. Feed it Sweet Vegetable Cake for the fastest tame and highest effectiveness bonus.

After taming, the Aberrant Achatina is valued for its harvesting efficiency, collecting key resources faster than most tools. It gives live birth after a gestation period, making breeding straightforward. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.69 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
