How to defeat Deathworm in Ark Survival Ascended
The Alpha Deathworm in Ark Survival Ascended can appear anywhere in the Dunes, but it's more common in areas farther from regular land. Look for it at night when its glowing appearance is easier to see. Avoid using Rock Elementals against Deathworms because they don't do much damage to them, and the latter can cause significant harm in return.
A Rex with high health and damage stats can defeat a Deathworm, but it will likely sustain heavy damage. It's better to use multiple strong Rexes or have tribe members attack from a safe distance with fire arrows. Another method is to provoke Ark Survival Ascended's Deathworm and then shoot it with fire arrows from a distance, as it stays above ground longer than usual and still takes damage from fire.
For a safer approach, use oil jars and fire arrows along with a fast mount. Throw an oil jar on the ground and light it before luring the Deathworm over it. Keep making it surface over the fire until it's defeated. This method consumes three oil jars and three flame arrows per creature, but this method doesn't work in rainy weather.
How to defeat Manticore in Ark Survival Ascended
The Manticore is a mythical creature in Ark Survival Ascended with a lion's body, bat-like wings, and a scorpion's stinger that can shoot venomous projectiles. Its Beta variant has glowing yellow eyes and a darker brown color with orange spikes.
The Alpha Manticore is darker red with yellow eyes, and the Gamma variant is light brown with yellow eyes, representing the basic model. In battle, the Manticore attacks by swooping down or shooting projectiles that cause damage and torpor. Stay on a tame and fight it from a distance by using ranged weapons in Ark Survival Ascended. When it gets close or sprays venom, mount your tames for protection.
Be cautious of your torpor level because the Manticore can attack you with poisonous projectiles. Creatures like Rexes, Spinos, or Therizinosaurus with high health are ideal for fighting it. Protect yourself from getting affected by projectile torpor with a Gas Mask or Tek Helmet, and bring Stamina-recovery items to avoid being knocked out by the Manticore's attacks.
