The Alpha Basilisk is one of the Alpha Creatures in  ARK: Survival Evolved's Aberration expansion.

Basic Info

Behavior

Much like their weaker counterpart, Alpha Basilisks are aggressive and will chase their prey to no end.

Appearance

Alpha Basilisks resemble normal Basilisks, except that they glow red, are much larger, and are covered with a glowing red-orange cloud.

Color Scheme and Regions

X mark.svg

The Alpha Basilisk always spawns with the same color scheme and has no color regions.

This means it is currently impossible to make alterations to the Alpha Basilisk's colors.

Combat

General

If you find this creature in the wild, do not go near it. If you meet this creature it is best to have many heavy armored tames, and let them tank while you and your team unload upon it until death.

Weaponry

Use long-range weapons and creatures with large amounts of health to distract it. If you attempt to find a high place to shoot it from, odds are it will find its way up the surface or fire its poisonous projectiles at you.

Dangers

Alpha Basilisks have a poison attack and are incredibly fast.

Weakness

Using a small team, Alpha Basilisks are relatively easy to kill.

Alpha Basilisks cannot attack or burrow underwater. Lure it there and kill it with a  Spinosaurus or  Rock Drake. Do not let it reach the shore!

Unlike normal Basilisks, Alpha Basilisks do not deal torpor damage.

Notes/Trivia

  • Alpha Basilisk is the fastest land creature in the game, faster than Gallimimus or even other alpha.
    • Since the release of Extinction this title is taken by the Managarmr.
