  • Low health pool — vulnerable to burst damage; focus it down quickly.
  • Low torpor — easy to knock out; a few tranq hits will subdue it.

Tridacna — Detailed Guide

The Tridacna is a giant clam from the Aquatica map in ASE. It stays in one spot on the shore and snaps shut on anyone who comes too close, but a tamed one is a steady source of pearls.

Where to find it

It sits on the shores of Aquatica and does not move.

Taming

A non-violent tame. Wear armor, let it trap you, then feed it Worm Gum one piece at a time while you are held. Repeat until it is tamed, and keep an eye out for other predators while you are stuck.

Uses

Tips

It cannot be ridden or bred, but it is light enough for a player to carry back to base.
