alpha tusoteuthis?!?!?!?

[remmy]

can i get some info on it? i didnt even know this was a thing

[NotDylan7055]

Not really on topic, but while reading this I thought "WHAT?? AN ALPHA KRAKEN??", but I didn't have anything to contribute, since I didn't know it existed. Hopped into ark and go cruising on my Icthy, looking for Basilsaurs (Obviously correct name), and what do you think I see?
...
...
..An alpha squid.

yeah i was crusing with my frind hes on a dunkle with a asc saddle im on a plessi with a asc saddle looking for reg squids... so im ahead of him and then he says "dude i found a ll 10 male alpha squid" and im like "i dont belive you" then he says come over here and yeah i took his spyglass and it was an alpha tuso and im like "what!?!?!?" so im tryna get info on it for tommorrow

[NotDylan7055]

Well, sorry but I don't know anything about it either... I'll be watching the thread to learn more about this beast though

[TheWorldWonders]

Well, lemme just say...A person who plays on my server pitted their 250 mosa up against a lvl 5 alpha kraken, and let's just say....after 10 seconds they had to pull out of combat. The mosa had a huge health pool, so if a lvl 5 can do that much dmg to one in a few seconds, enough damage that they had to pull the mosa out to save it, I dont wanna see one of these around in my neighborhood XD

i saw these were added and there's a spawn code for them, but when i tried to spawn one in single player to get an idea of what they were like it never spawned in, so i assumed it just never made the cut and was on a back burner

Well, it's a Tuso that moves rlly fast, is ornage/rec/white, has the alpha glow, and is even bigger than the normal tuso.

what was the armour on the saddle?

[Bootleg Greedo]

yeah i don't really see any real info about it on a wiki, and not many posts. must be insanely rare

[primobrainlet]

theres a little info on the beast in the wiki, there health isnt HUGE but their damage and speed is insane!

tentacle slap does a base damage of 130, with a reach of 4500
grab does 2 damage WITH TOPOR at a 4500 range
ink does 15 and blinds stuff
crush does 200 with attack range of 8000

Most things will be dead before they can even get close, not to mention it's base speed of 2100, its health pool is only 3333, and its only got 300 stamina, honestly, the best way to fight it seems to be to bring a plesie army or something with considerable speed or range, tanking will not do anything.

as for location they spawn rareley to the east of the island, and very rarley to the northwest

edit: to put it's range into perspective, alpha fire wyvern's fireball has 4000 range

i think that info is just copied and pasted from the normal squid page, since that also has a base hp of 3333 (and i really doubt that a high tier alpha only has 3300 hp), which is what made me say that there isn't much info. i'd try spawning one in again and seeing if i can find real stats on it, but my singleplayer has been bugged for a month now

It seems that only the 3333 is copy pasted, the normal has no range stats for its other moves, idk

knowing how alphas work imma guess thier base is 6666 (dont bring any religoius stuff into this) and about a 1111 per lvl (these arnt exact stats just educated guessess) for health but iwill tell you doing some research a lvl100 will do 22k damage in about 2m and a mos that does 1,311 damage a hit made it SLIGHTLY bloody
EDIT: saddle was crafted so not the best damage reduction
anyone know what it drops when killed? is it worth killing it?

[Kraken:1]

If you're looking to go up against one then another Tuso or Basilosaurus (as long as it's not too deep) is your best bet as they're immune to the squids grab attack.

[CLM]

Yeah these are rare. Saw a lvl 15, the thing was huge.
