Deathworm Horn — Detailed Guide

A horn from the Deathworm

Deathworm Horn is a resource in ARK: Survival Evolved and ARK: Survival Ascended, taken from the Deathworm. The game's text reads: "Beloved by large desert insects, and also can be used in very specialized Recipes..." The ARK Wiki points out that it is a different item from Woolly Rhino Horn.

Getting horns

Horns come from killing a Deathworm, and according to the wiki, Alpha Deathworms always drop 20. On Fjordur, the wiki adds, horns can also be harvested from deathworm corpses found on Balheimr island, in the southeast of the map. Our records list 2 loot sources that can contain it as well: Deathworm and Iceworm, and Alpha Deathworm and Iceworm Queen.

Maps with Deathworm Horn

The wiki says the horn was introduced in Scorched Earth and also appears on Ragnarok and Lost Island, and it names Astraeos too. Our records also list Valguero.

Taming the Mantis and two recipes

The horn is used to tame the Mantis. On Scorched Earth it also stands in for Woolly Rhino Horn in two recipes, Broth of Enlightenment and Lesser Antidote.

Weight and stacks

Each horn weighs 8, and a stack holds 20, so a full stack weighs 160.
