How to tame Purlovia in Ark Survival Ascended: spawn locations, best kibble type, and more

Taming a Purlovia in Ark Survival Ascended is highly beneficial for its burrow ability, which provides raid-protection for your base. However, unlike larger defensive dinosaurs, it will not directly guard your base. Rather, it will protect your valuables by cleverly hiding in plain sight.

By loading your valuables onto this creature before logging off and instructing it to bury itself underground, you can have peace of mind. The only way a PvP raider can locate it later on is by using a Parasaur.

Despite the valuable assets this creature possesses, the effort required to tame a Purlovia in Ark Survival Ascended is minimal. This guide will discuss typical areas where Purlovia can be found, and provide the most reliable technique for taming them.

Locating Purlovia in Ark Survival Evolved: Ascension

In Ark Survival Ascended, Purlovia can be found in burrows in various forest regions, including tundra and Redwood forests. However, they are not commonly seen roaming in the wild and may require some searching before you come across one.

The Island map has two well-known spawn locations.

• The northern-western corner of The Island features the southern cliffside of the Whitesky Peak.
• Surrounding the Grand Peak are dense woods.

However, if you are playing on a private server, there is a possibility that you can use ARK Survival Ascended console commands to summon a Purlovia.

Mastering the Art of Taming Purlovia in Ark Survival Ascended

Despite their ability to pounce out of their burrows and knock players off their tames in Ark Survival Ascended, Purlovia are generally not considered a major threat.

One common method for taming a Purlovia in Ark Survival Ascended, as with most aggressive creatures, is to utilize a doorway trap.

• Construct a 4×4 platform using any type of material.
• Surround it with stone doorways on all sides except for one.
• Entice the Purlovia to enter the trap through its exposed side.
• Once you are inside, simply shut the entrance by adding another doorway.
• Aim your ranged weapons at the Purlovia to gradually decrease its Torpidity.

It should be noted that in Ark Survival Ascended, it is possible to transport tamed Purlovia using a Quetzal.

Taming Purlovia in Ark Survival Ascended with Food and Kibble

After successfully incapacitating the Purlovia, it can be tamed using a variety of food items. For higher-level Purlovia, the most effective option is Superior Kibble, but if this is unavailable, Raw Primed Meat or Raw Mutton can also be used.
