Location
The Broodmother, Megapithecus, and Dragon Arenas are located under each of the three Obelisks.

To be teleported into the arena  AND  out of the arena, you  MUST  be dismounted.

 * If you are mounted when you teleport out of the arena, you teleport and dismount


 * Xbox version
 * If you are mounted when you teleport into the arena, you teleport and dismount.
 * If you are mounted when you teleport out of the arena, you don't die, but your dino gains a large amount of torpor.

Extinction and Genesis
Teleportation to the Titan summoned area or bosses in Genesis does not require you to dismount.

Equipment and Structure Restrictions

 * No structures may be placed in the arenas. So avoid forming plans that revolve on building. If you attempt to place anything, the message "No ground or snap point available" will be displayed.
 * Grappling hooks may be taken into the arena, but once equipped in a crossbow they cannot be fired. (May be related to why Thylacoleo does not teleport into arena.)
 * Quetzal, while itself can be warped into Manticore Arena, may not warp inside if it is wearing a with at least one structure.
 * All Tek gears and Tek saddles are banned from mainly the island Boss arena (Excluding Tek Cave/Overseer Arena) and Manticore Arena, and attempting to wear it inside when entering will either force unequip it, or drop at where the boss was summoned)

Item Losses

 * You will lose summon items and dinos only upon running out of time or dying within the arena. Similarly, if no survivor are inside the arena when the portal is pulling dinos in, all the dinosaurs will die immediately. This excludes the arena at Extinction.

Multiples changes

 * Due to the harsh consequences of a failed boss fight (see bullet point above), it is extremely advisable to prepare before attempting a boss fight. Watching online videos of other ARK players completing the Boss fight is a good way to elaborate your strategy in advance. However, there have been a lot of changes to the Boss Arenas during the development of the game, so ensure you are watching videos recorded after the last patch changing Boss Arenas. Also Singleplayer Bosses are weaker than Multiplayer Bosses, but never underestimate the Bosses.
