Astral Tusoteuthis Egg & Breeding Calculator

The Astral Tusoteuthis reproduces by laying fertilized eggs after mating. Incubation temperature must stay between -75°C and 75°C - use Air Conditioners, Standing Torches, or Dimetrodons to maintain the range. At the correct temperature, the egg hatches in approximately 4 hours and 59 minutes.

The baby Astral Tusoteuthis takes approximately 7 days and 17 hours to fully mature at default rates - over many real-world days, demanding serious time investment. During the baby phase (0–10%), hand-feed it directly. From 10% onward (juvenile), it can eat from a Feeding Trough.

Mutations can add +2 levels to any stat and change colors. Stacking mutations across generations is the key to min-maxed breeding lines. Use the breeding calculator to plan food requirements, incubation timers, and maturation phases.

The dino is inside an egg, needing specific conditions to incubate and hatch. The ideal temperature range is -75 - 75 °C.

The hatched dinosaur, now a baby, needs constant attention and food placed directly in its inventory to survive, or a nearby Maewing to take care of its needs.

Juvenile

10% - 50%

74:04:26

The dinosaur reaches the juvenile stage, where it can now eat from a feeding trough, reducing the need for direct feeding.

Adolescent

50% - 100%

92:35:33

The dinosaur reaches the adolescent stage, becoming more independent and able to follow you while continuing to grow toward full maturity.

Raising a baby Astral Tusoteuthis involves three maturation phases: Baby (0–10%) lasts ~1111 min and requires constant hand-feeding. Juvenile (10–50%) spans ~74h - it can eat from a Trough now. Adolescent (50–100%) takes ~93h - continues eating from troughs, nearly fully grown.

Imprinting during maturation provides permanent stat bonuses. At 100% imprint, the Astral Tusoteuthis gains 30% bonus damage and resistance when ridden by the imprinter. You'll be asked to cuddle, walk, or feed specific kibble at regular intervals during maturation.

Use the raising calculator to plan food requirements for raising Astral Tusoteuthis babies through all three growth stages. Budget ~1111 minutes for the Baby phase - this is when hand-feeding or Maewing nursing is mandatory.

Adjust the dino count to calculate food for multiple Astral Tusoteuthis babies at once - essential for batch breeding operations. Consider food spoilage when choosing what to feed: Kibble lasts days, while Raw Meat spoils in minutes.

During the Baby phase (0-10%), you must hand-feed or use a Maewing to nurse. From Juvenile (10%+), dinos can eat from a Feeding Trough on their own. Use Preserving Salt in troughs to double spoil times.

ARK: Survival Ascended features the Astral Tusoteuthis as an aquatic, carnivore creature that survivors will encounter in the wild. Classified under the Variant group.

Its base Stamina of 300 gives it decent staying power. Its base Melee Damage sits at 100%, giving it respectable melee power. Health-wise, the Astral Tusoteuthis sits at 30,000 base, making it extraordinarily tanky. A base Weight of 800 means massive inventory space.

The Astral Tusoteuthis cannot be tamed and must be dealt with through combat or avoidance. Breeding produces fertilized eggs that hatch within a -75°C–75°C temperature window. Killing a wild Astral Tusoteuthis yields 2200 base XP. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.87 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
