ARK: Survival Ascended features the Аранео as a tamable, carnivore creature that survivors will encounter in the wild. It falls within the Misc classification.

Stamina sits at 150 base, providing decent staying power. Its base Melee Damage sits at 100%, giving it decent hitting power. With 200 base Health, the Аранео is on the squishy side. It carries 150 base Weight - a reasonable inventory size.

To tame the Аранео, you need to knock it unconscious using torpor weapons, then feed it while it's down. Feed it Superior Kibble for the fastest tame and highest effectiveness bonus.

Once tamed, the Аранео earns its keep through resource gathering, making tedious farming runs much faster. Breeding produces fertilized eggs that hatch within a 4°C–12°C temperature window. It can be cloned at a Cloning Chamber for 0.04 Element plus 0.01 Element per level.
