Dossier: Cretophengodes azari Description: The Cretophengodes azari, also known as the Ancient Firefly, is an ancient relative of the modern-day firefly. It is considerably smaller than most tamed creatures in Ark: Survival Evolved, and its unique ability lies in its swarm behavior. Behavior: The Cretophengodes azari exhibits swarm behavior, which means they prefer to be tamed and kept in groups rather than individually. They possess the innate ability to ward off Nameless and other creatures that dwell in darkness. Habitat: These ancient fireflies can be found in various regions of the game, particularly in darker areas such as caves or underground tunnels. Taming: To tame the Cretophengodes azari, you must consume a rare mushroom. Once consumed, approach the small swarm of fireflies, and they will begin to follow you. They will request to be fed rare mushrooms, which you can provide by placing them in your last inventory slot and feeding them when the notification appears. Once tamed, you have two options: you can command the swarm of Cretophengodes azari to follow you, or you can collect them in a glass jar for easy transportation. Special Abilities: When kept in a glass jar, the Cretophengodes azari emits a brighter light due to their concentrated presence. In swarm form, if you consume a rare mushroom, they will fly around you and land on your body, leaving behind glow dust. This glow dust can be collected and used to create luminescent dyes. When applied to weapons or armor, these luminescent dyes reduce the damage taken from creatures that fear light. Uses: The Cretophengodes azari provides a unique resource in the form of glow dust, which can be used to create luminescent dyes. These dyes can enhance your weapons and armor, reducing damage from light-fearing creatures. Additionally, the swarm of fireflies can serve as a light source in dark areas, improving visibility and deterring hostile creatures. Weaknesses: While the Cretophengodes azari possesses valuable abilities, they are relatively fragile and can be easily harmed by aggressive creatures. They rely on their swarm behavior and luminescence to protect themselves, so caution should be exercised when using them in combat. Additional Notes: The Cretophengodes azari offers a unique taming experience, as players must interact with a swarm of fireflies rather than an individual creature. Their ability to produce glow dust and create luminescent dyes adds a creative element to customization in the game.
