Ark Survival Ascended’s first-ever single-tame paid DLC series is here. ARK Fantastic Tames is the DLC’s name and it has debuted in the game with a new creature named Pyromane. The Pyromane costs $5, and when purchased, you will be able to tame it and use it to your advantage against other creatures and players. Well, to be able to tame and use it, you will have to know where it usually spawns and the process of taming. If you are unaware of these details, don’t worry. We are here to share all the information you need regarding the same.
The Pyromane is one unique creature in the world of Ark Survival Ascended. It’s a dynamic creature that can be used as a tiny, shoulder-mounted flamethrower, as it takes the form of a kitten, or you can use it as a mount, which is a lion that can decimate opponents with a fire debuff. As the new The Center update for Ark is live, many players have joined in on the fun to experience the new region, with some players even purchasing the DLC to get access to a new creature. So, if you have bought the DLC, you might be wondering how you can tame the Pyromane in-game. Well, more details on the same are shared below.
Note: Purchasing the DLC allows you to tame Pyromane in-game. If you don’t purchase it, you will still encounter Pyromanes in their usual spawn locations.

ARK Survival Ascended Pyromane location & How to tame it?
Before you go about taming these creatures, you will have to know where they usually spawn. Well, the new Pyromane is available in the Lava Island region of the Center map, near the lava pools. However, do note that the spawn rate of these creatures is on the lower side, so you might need to wait a while before you come across one.
Now, suppose you are able to find a Pyromane in the wild. What should you do to tame it? Well, it is not a knockout tame, but rather a passive one. To tame a Pyromane, you should first be equipped with good armor for extra protection and a shotgun. Once you are done with this, get close to the creature and enter its aggro range. It has a huge aggro range, so be careful. After it is aggroed, you will have to find a water source and lure the Pyromane into the water body.
If it steps into the water body, the flames of the Pyromane will extinguish. Now, equip the shotgun and shoot it continuously until its armor breaks. Once broken, you can ride the Pyromane. But it isn’t tamed yet. While riding, you will have to kill a bunch of creatures, but within a 30-second interval. If you are unable to kill another creature within 30 seconds, the Pyromane will throw you off of its back, and a 5-minute riding cooldown will commence. So, make sure the killing spree continues until the creature is tamed. Once the taming bar is filled, you will need to press the LCtrl+M1 buttons to tame the Pyromane.
With that said, now you know all about the location of the Pyromane in Ark Survival Ascended and how you can tame it effectively. If you find this guide informative, consider visiting DigiStatement for more such guides on all things gaming.
