About

The Electrophorus is a fish-type creature known for its electric discharge, capable of stunning players and creatures that venture too close underwater. It is not tied to any DLC, so it appears across the base game's aquatic zones.

Admins targeting this creature for spawn commands or kill/destroy operations should use the entity ID Eel_Character_BP_C. The name tag Eel can be used with commands that accept shorter tag references, such as DestroyWildDinoClasses.

When managing server population, the Electrophorus can be a hazard for players in water-heavy maps. Reducing its spawn weight in the game's config or using targeted destroy commands during events is a common admin task.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I spawn a wild Electrophorus Creature?
Run cheat Summon Eel_Character_BP_C in the admin console. Summon spawns a wild, untamed Electrophorus Creature at your location. Use GMSummon instead if you want it pre-tamed.
How do I spawn a Electrophorus Creature at an exact level and position?
Run admincheat SpawnDino "Blueprint'/Game/PrimalEarth/Dinos/Eel/Eel_Character_BP.Eel_Character_BP'" 0 0 0 0. SpawnDino takes the full blueprint path followed by spawn distance, Y offset, Z offset and level, so you can place the Electrophorus Creature precisely instead of dropping it on top of your character.
How do I spawn a tamed Electrophorus Creature?
Open the admin console and run cheat GMSummon "Eel_Character_BP_C" 150. GMSummon spawns a tamed Electrophorus Creature at the given level (150 here); change the number to set the level. Verified against the current ARK: ASA build as of June 28, 2026.
What is the blueprint path for the Electrophorus Creature?
The Electrophorus Creature blueprint path is "Blueprint'/Game/PrimalEarth/Dinos/Eel/Eel_Character_BP.Eel_Character_BP'".
