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.
