ARK: Survival Ascended features the Helicoprion as a tamable, carnivore creature that survivors will encounter in the wild. It belongs to the Water category.

With 500 base Stamina, the Helicoprion has solid stamina reserves. Its base Melee Damage sits at 100%, giving it decent hitting power. With 1,300 base Health, the Helicoprion is a proper tank. A base Weight of 500 means an enormous weight pool.

The Helicoprion is passively tamed - approach it carefully and feed it by hand without knocking it out. Its preferred food is Little Ratfish Treats!.

Once tamed, the Helicoprion is valued for its harvesting efficiency, collecting key resources faster than most tools. Breeding produces fertilized eggs that hatch within a -75°C–75°C temperature window. Defeating one in the wild grants 8 base XP. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.7 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
