Thylacoleo Hook-Claw — Detailed Guide

Trophy claws from the Thylacoleo

Thylacoleo Hook-Claws are trophies in ARK: Survival Evolved and ARK: Survival Ascended that are spent as tribute to summon bosses. The item text says "This trophy proves your worth as a hunter." The ARK Wiki dates them to patch 260.0.

Taking them from a kill

A dead Thylacoleo holds a stack of 2 in its inventory. Open that inventory before you harvest meat and hide; if you harvest first, or a predator eats the body, the claws drop to the ground in a bag. Our loot data lists the Thylacoleo and the Shadowmane as sources, and our records place the item on 8 maps, including The Island, Scorched Earth, Ragnarok and Astraeos.

Where the claws are spent

ASA has 9 recipes that use them and ASE has 7. These portals are shared by both games: Generate Center (Medium) Portal (10), Generate Center (Hard) Portal (25), Generate Megapithecus (Beta) Portal (5) and Generate Megapithecus (Alpha) Portal (10).

Weight

Each claw weighs 0.5; a full stack of 100 weighs 50.
