The Cosmo, a tamable, carnivore creature in ARK: Survival Ascended, is a notable presence across multiple maps. It belongs to the Shoulder Pet category.
Stamina sits at 100 base, providing tires quickly. Dealing 100% base Melee Damage, the Cosmo brings decent hitting power to the table. With 115 base Health, the Cosmo is extremely fragile. A base Weight of 70 means not built for hauling.
Taming the Cosmo doesn't require unconsciousness. Instead, sneak up to it and hand-feed its preferred food. Its preferred food is Plant Species Z Seed.
After taming, the Cosmo earns its keep through resource gathering, making tedious farming runs much faster. It reproduces by laying eggs, which must be incubated between 4°C and 12°C. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.05 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
