Astraeos New Bosses

There are 3 new bosses in ARK: Survival Ascended Astraeos DLC. Each one is unique and different with their own health, abilities, location, and loot. Check them out below 👏

Hydraskos

Hydraskos serves as a five-headed hydra guardian boss introduced in the Pyranthos desert update. It unleashes varied elemental breaths such as fire, ice, poison, lightning, and dark alongside crushing main bites. Collect five new artifacts from custom caves to summon it at the dedicated arena. Tank from the rear using 100k+ HP Stegos combined with Deinonychus bleeds and Daeodon healing support. As a core progression boss, it drops substantial Element alongside unique trophies for advancing Tek unlocks.

Minotarchos

Minotarchos miniboss appears as a giant minotaur miniboss dwelling deep within a cave labyrinth at coordinates 90.6 latitude and 74.1 longitude. Specific tributes activate the encounter inside the tight arena space. Torpor-immune and focused on powerful melee charges, it demands precise dodging and strong tame support. The fight proves surprisingly soloable for prepared players using high-melee output creatures. It yields artifact drops and useful gear to aid map progression.

Pulmonoscorpius Monarch

The Pulmonoscorpius Monarch miniboss emerges as a giant scorpion king miniboss patrolling desert regions. Poison stings and area attacks define its combat style alongside enhanced Astral variants. No complex summon is needed beyond locating its spawn for repeatable fights. Ranged strategies or strong tames make it an accessible loot farm with cave-style rewards. Added alongside skeleton enemies, it provides consistent resources for mid-game gearing.
