The Alpha Palaeoctopus is a tamable, carnivore creature in ARK: Survival Ascended. It falls within the Variant classification.

Melee starts at 100% - respectable melee power that scales with level-ups. The Alpha Palaeoctopus has 1,050 base Health - quite durable. Its base Stamina of 400 gives it solid stamina reserves. It carries 1000 base Weight - massive inventory space.

The Alpha Palaeoctopus is a knockout tame: apply enough torpor to knock it out, then place food in its inventory. Feed it Raw Mutton for the fastest tame and highest effectiveness bonus.

Once tamed, the Alpha Palaeoctopus combines solid harvesting capability with generous carrying capacity. A wild Alpha Palaeoctopus is worth 400 base experience when killed. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.85 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
