Titanosaur

The Titanosaur is one of the largest creatures in ARK, a docile sauropod that ignores most survivors. Tamed, it is a short-lived siege engine: one of the few creatures that can break metal structures.

Where to find it

It roams The Island, The Center, Scorched Earth and Ragnarok in both games, plus Crystal Isles, Fjordur and Lost Island in ASE. Official servers allow only three at a time on The Island and Scorched Earth.

Taming

A knockout tame without narcotics, since it is immune to them. Hit its head with siege weapons; Cannon Balls are the most efficient, and catapults or rockets also work. It cannot be trapped, and it runs when its torpor is high, so keep moving with it. Once it is down, placing the Platform Saddle (level 100) tames it at once.

Uses

• Raiding: it destroys metal structures, and its platform saddle can carry turrets and cover.
• Harvest: its body drops a Sauropod Vertebra.

Tips

A tamed Titanosaur cannot level up and does not eat, so it starves about 16 to 20 hours after taming. It cannot be put in a Cryopod or transferred. Plan the raid before you knock it out.
