The Tusoteuthis, a tamable, carnivore creature in ARK: Survival Ascended, is a notable presence across multiple maps. It falls within the DMG classification.
Its base Stamina of 300 gives it average stamina. Dealing 100% base Melee Damage, the Tusoteuthis brings solid damage output to the table. With 2,700 base Health, the Tusoteuthis is a proper tank. It carries 800 base Weight - excellent carrying capacity.
Taming the Tusoteuthis doesn't require unconsciousness. Instead, sneak up to it and hand-feed its preferred food. Its preferred food is Black Pearl.
After taming, the Tusoteuthis combines solid harvesting capability with generous carrying capacity. It reproduces by laying eggs, which must be incubated between -75°C and 75°C. A wild Tusoteuthis is worth 100 base experience when killed. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.87 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
