Titanboa attacks too strong.
Every time i get a maximum of 1-2 hits of these damn snakes i fall asleep in an instant why do they even have that now!?!?
In my knowledge the real "Boa Constrictor" is no venomous snake please remove it its too strong. or just reduce it...

When they keep it they should really turn the amount of torpor that generates down that you don't fall instantly asleep.
Titanboa cause torpor? Interesting, I don't think that got mentioned in the dossier.

I AM disappointed that the Titanoboa is treated as more of a generic venomous snake rather than a constrictor. I'm hoping that when the team gets around to doing more complex animations we can see a model change (it's disappointingly small) and a switch from torpor generated from bites to torpor generated through constriction.

While I do think that what essentialy is a boa constrictor should not be venemous or cause torpor damage, I don't think they are particularily tough, I kill pretty high leveled ones with "relative" ease.
You might try to keep stim berries on your hotbar and using them as soon as one attacks, and maybe look into leveling up meele damage and wearing better armor.

My character has 300 health, 150% melee damage, and 30 fortitude. I kill snakes by the dozens with my pike. My question is: they do torpor damage?! I hadn't noticed.

They are still weak as ♥♥♥♥. No harder to kill than they were before. Only a problem when there is at least 3 of them.

This.

Actually, I think it would be more interesting if they constricted. Just imagine the posts.

They'd be nerfed within 2 seconds of their release because of all the little 10 year olds complaining that the constrict is too strong. Lol, go get constricted in real life then come back and tell me how it's too strong in game.

You certain it was a Titano? I've yet to notice torp effects from them.

If my dinos and I are just Titano torp proof anomalies, armor and fortitude are 2 ways to mitigate the torpor gained.

Though it wouldn't help against a one hit [instant] KOs, carry a stack of stimberries/stim pots to counter when anywhere near their spawning grounds. This used to be a lot easier as caves were the only place to encounter snakes at all and guaranteed to have scorps as well but 10 weight isn't much and are cheap enough to toss if need be.
