Alpha Deathworms are bigger variants of the Deathworm that keep on chasing you when you are in its aggro range. These creatures randomly spawn on the outskirts of Ark Scorched Earth.
Remember, the Alpha Deathworms give you more damage than the regular ones, and these cannot be tamed. One annoying thing about this creature is that it despawns if you get out of its range, so keep popping it out every minute until it’s killed.
Killing Alpha Deathworm increases Deathworm Horns, allowing you to tame more Mantis. With this said, this guide covers everything you need to know about Alpha Deathworm, including where to find it and how to kill it in Ark Scorched Earth.
Ark Scorched Earth Alpha Deathworm Location
You will find Alpha Deathworm in the Dunes region throughout the Scorched Earth map. You can hunt them at nighttime as they have a special glow that makes them visible at night. You can also hunt them during the daytime using the orbital camera. The map image below shows the creature’s expected spawn location.
