Why dont people make costum foods and drinks more often?
Because effort.
i killed a lot of them before and they seamed to respawn but now they dont
also i have no gigas on my map
they aint spawning
How to stack prime meat???
Odd. 
mods
If you're on Steam you can get a stack mod.
I use Ultra Stacks, it's OP with the weight reduction but oh well.
i tamed one in highlands and then killed another there and tamed one in desert but now theres no gigas
can someone join me and teach me ark never played
I will get bored soon if using mods. I like defauly except day time cycle lol
Then you can change some stuff in files to allow for things to stack
Fair enough, I can't play without mods. π
can someone join me and teach me ark never played
Lots of folks looking for others to play with. π
Play solo, local host.. dont join server, its hard to see someone fortress lol
I play solo and enjoy it, except wrong map hahaha
That is usually the default character lol
help
?
With?
i made a taming pen for a hyaenodon, but it just runs away from me even though i'm wearing ghillie
Ghille doesn't stop you from being seen
you gotta go from the back and crouch
Ghille does help
stayed in a corner but it just runs and runs
Derender it.
Make sure you don't have a shoulderpet on you.
And make sure no tames are nearby.
thx
And get only close enough for the pet option to appear, you can still spook it with ghillie. π
This game sucks ass. I have been playing on the official server and I have been getting aimbotted and raided by hacks so many times its unbelievable. I made like 50 tickets and all of the get auto closed and nothing is done. This game is left to die
How do I draw on a Single panel flag?
Hi everyone. I'm preparing for my first boss ever. My mutated Rexes are about 25k HP and 750 melee. Will it be enough or should I prepare more ?
what boss?
those stats should be ok for gamma even beta, u may want more melee or help for alpha depending on which boss
the minibosses or the island guardians on fjordur?
I haven't killed none of them first, so probably the 3 world bosses
@static fjordideally both
@topaz mangotyvm !
you can do beyla for sure, idk about hati and skoll and steinbjorn
alpha megapithecus will probably be destroyed but alpha broodmother and dragon will give you a tough time
i was thinking the island/rag bosses not fjord sorry
from what ive seen, everyone is just using gigas for the world bosses excluding beyla
@static fjordoh.
well, that's good to know. I guess still with yuti and daedon ?
so are we talking about 18 mutated gigas ?
daedon and yuti will always be helpful until u get op stats
can do with under 5.
you'll need some mutated theris for dragon.
why ?
carnivores take more damage
ok tyvm
theriz being the best out off the herbivores
the dragon does 20% fire damage to anything, rexes dont have a healing option, unlike theris with veggie cakes
herbivores take less fire damage but its negligibke, the real killer is the dot
just to be sure, gigas mutated full melee, and leveled up full melee correct ?
ye thats brutal from fire
theris heal 10% hp while dragon does 20% fire damage, rexes have to rely on daeodons which are unreliable comparatively
well I guess I'll tame a loads of theris π
maybe I'll just unlock the teck engrams on another map too
I believe I need to kill fenril to unlock tek engrams, it will take me ages
afaik fenrisulfr only drops tek sword tekgram
ah
what are you using and on what map
argy on scorched
Bruh are u kidding me right noe
i just doubt that its high lvl enough
grab the closest egg you see regardless of level, then fly as far away from the trench to the dunes as possible. its fine if you die as long as you get to the dunes
it becomes a lot easier to grab egge on scorched once you have a wyvern yourself.
theres little holes in the walls of the trench, sometimes theres a nest with an egg
say goodbye to your argy lol
it was only lvl 60 anyway
you need a tanky argy to be able to get as far into the dunes as possible.
and make sure you have another transport mount to retrieve the egg from your corpse in the dunes
what does petting tamed hyaenadon do?
gives a small buff iirc
to who?
i cant fucking find my loot anymore why is there no beacon
the hyeanodon. i think its combat related
No they not jsut set up trap and get em into it and knock em out
why do I want the other stats to be the same? And also, when should I breed in a low level to the unwanted stats? Do I do that only so I don't hit the level cap? (ping me please if you answer)
how do i find my loot???
Look for beacon
You want all the stats to be the same (and level to be the same) because it'll be easier to find a mutation and overall it'll be more organised
Breeding in a low level is only if you dont want to hit the cap which is pretty rare for the average player
there is no fucking beacon i just said that ffs
hold H
you need to get pretty close to see it sometimes
Okay, thank you I understand now because when I get a mutation I will see immediately because of the bonus 2 levels.
What is the level cap for dinos? 450?
no idea. its either 450, 500 or only 500 for some
So go to where you died or the area and look
Argy won't do it
You need a Griff or something an Argy is far slower then the wyvs so a lighting would make quick work of it
- griffins arent on scorched
- the entire plan is to use a sacrificial tanky argy, grab an egg and run into the dunes. when you die, get another dino to retrieve the corpse because there wont be wyvern near where you died anymore.
ive done that method several times and it has yet to fail me.
you used to be able to feed argi with focal chili for the extra speed, it was jsut enough to outrun wyverns, im not sure if you can still do that
or some pteras, you need about 750 stam to do a few barrel rolls and outrun wyverns
pteras arent on scorched either and im just going to assume he isnt using transfers otherwise he would have done so already
i mean if he has scorched, he has access to the island, travelling is a thing :p
im just going to assume he isnt using transfers otherwise he would have done so already
thats just bad luck.
what a mess
what do i do
i need to go through an extra generation to get a male with any good stat?
well, go get more eggs i guess
Is there a way to calculate weapon damage? Like a 140 crossbow?
of course
i have an entire fridge full of reject eggs i don't have enough veggies to make kibble with
already
Ohh my bad didn't read the full thing he said
Personally I use griffs on rag trench and just dive through and collect eggs
140 crossbow should do 133 damage per stone arrow
And with tranq arrows?
you want torpor or damage?
Torpor
220 torpor
Is there a way for me to calculate it?
yeah. take the base (150 torpor tranq arrow, 95 damage stone arrow) and multiply by your weapon damage
150 torpor is an approximate. idk the exact value but its around there
Okay thanks for the help
help, how do you convert from melee damage in the egg incubator to the stat? i was able to match up all the other stats on this egg to its parents, but when i use the same formula on melee damage, it doesn't match either parent
((egg incubator #)*(increase per wild lvl))+(base stat)
melee damage is different since it has an additive and multiplicative bonus
what are the values and what's the dino? I can calculate it for you
How can you spoil meat faster?
split the entire stack by one
49 melee on the egg for an argy
This for spoiling meat?
yea
if you die and your body isnt showing the light beam for whatever ARK reason, will logging in and out possibly fix it? or erase all chance of finding it?
finally managed to snag a wyvern egg
hell yeah
found a high lvl argy tamed it rq, had a spot where there wasnt any wyvern, got 2 eggs even, flew away
why is my spino not pooping?
if you die once, and then die again, first death beacon wont show. to make it show hold H
can I make a shortcut for split one?
just the one death. and pres and hold or H to toggle?
oh? do you mean when you die hit H to get the exact cords?
no. holding H brings up the extended hud. you can change in settings if you want it to ne a toggle
extended hud shows any green beacons
H shows coordinates if you have tek gauntlets equipped I think
wait that's completely unrelated
do my own wyverns produce milk?
no
scam
player bag is 30 min despawn?
why would they produce milk
bc they had a baby
they made a baby or you took them from their nests
mine had a baby
Not tamed ones
You gotta knock out a female or kill one you should find milk in the inventory
Also you probably left them on Mating so they probably had a baby that way
I harvested a lot of metal so i could make a roll rat saddle on a new world in aberration, but while i was getting something else a spino is now on top of my wooden base. I got enough resources to make a stone base, but how do i get my metal back/transform my base in stone without the spino killing me
Just lure that spino away
Just make a quick chest?
Yep with a bed near it
You have the roll rat right and the saddle?
Nope, thing is, the metal is inside the base
Oof
But you should still be able to do it
Just get it as far as you can
Ye i think i got enough movement speed
Try getting it to aggro on something else
I will just throw it down the waterfall
That works
Wait you made a base by a river?
Ye
Spinos and karkinos are gonna be a huge pain then
I know
But i am just so good at the game
Jk, im horrible
Same and I've been playing since ab came out
I have been watching since a year after release, i got the game in 2017, been playing since and i still fucking suck
Lol
I still need like half the bosses
And im running out of stuff to do in the game
I have not killed 1 single boss
The first boss I killed was the megapethicus because I thought I could and I somehow did it
I dont think you can throw a noglin at a boss
Can you?
what happens if you swim into an air bubble on fjordur with your ichthyosaurus?
Nope
That would be overpowered
If you could you wouldn't be hearing people talking about using rexes theris and megatheriums
Ig lmao
I started preparing and it was gone π
Wow
Probably jumped down on it's own trying to kill something
what is a brontosaurus good for?
is he any better than a trike at collecing berries and thatch? I already got 4 trikes
yeah, way better
but not a requirement, my preferred dino for berry gathering is mammoth since I'll have one for wood collection anyway
on the island at least
Yeah the bronto will swipe a massive area in one go, so its nice.
But he sloooowww.
anyone know how to fix ark for steam lol
I wasted 80 tranq arrows on that bronto
#bobs-with-probs is where you wish to be
Validate your files? π
what's a dino for collecting stone?
Getting killed for hide and meat
bruh
It's true tho literally they are mostly what I kill when I can't find ovis
Spino cant destroy stone right?
I don't think so
what can destroy stone?
bruh ain't that a bit rare
Not in pvp
I am playing singleplayer
Arthros can as well
They can damage everything with their spit
Wait, can a basilisk break stone?
Therizinosaurus can
I dont think so
No
They can't
Chalicotheriums can when they throw poo or rocks
theris break stone with their bite but such little damage is very negligible
hiya so im wondering which ark dlc has the most "endgame", superbosses, etc
will a lvl 155 fire wyvern survive a trench run?
Idk if ones more than another
Probably as long as theres not a overspawn
can you elaborate
think he is asking which map has the most bosses
excluding brutes and minibosses, the island i think. but amount of bosses doesnt correspond to the amount of endgame content there is
there's no one "end game" DLC, most of them have things which are pretty important for end game
can I break stone with them without a saddle?
Tf you just ask
?
stone structures or a literal rock?
answer to both is no
you can break stone structures but it does one damage at a time
stone structures have 10k health
I think a literal rock hes playing solo
theris harvest everything but rock
Somone was trolling him earlier in chat.
I want to collect all notes in the first island, what would be a nice dino for that ?
Flyer
any tips on how to dogfight other wyverns? took like 5 minutes to kill a lvl 7 with my lvl 185
there isnt one. unless youre using a voidwyrm, flyer v ai flyer is always a process of hugging eachothers tails
nope. only adult
cryopod them
yeah, but you'll have all the time in the world to get milk
50% i think
the only one that matters is 10% since then they eat from troughs. all other maturation states mean nothing except fully adult
a cryopod
do fire wyverns take fire damage of others?
no
no, but they still take lava damage
idk what to tell you man, youre caught between 2 stools.
wyverns cant damage their same wyvern type
ok so then my method only works on lightning and poison ones but still good
Use a daeodon to heal them so they won't need meat the only problem is you probably won't be able to imprint them
use a cryopod to reroll imprints
I thought wyverns only imprint on milk
yeah they do but they still get cuddles and walks
This is what I was thinking of
the solution is annoying but what were you expecting when you hatched 11 wyverns without getting any milk lol
Meat ain't really a problem for me neither is milk
how can i get a mantis saddle? im playing ragnarok and theres no engram for it
That's true tho you should have been prepared
That's your fault for meshing
should be. try enabling all filters. must be stuck on island engrams specifically
Rip
filters? where can i see that?
so I can't let my dino harvest anything without a saddle? like there isn't a setting toggle harvesting or smthin
Did it work?
theres a bunch of icons in the top right in the engram menu. enable them all
Theris and some other things can auto harvest but theris cant harvest rocks
how do you auto harvest?
bring them near something they can harvest or put them on wander and they'll walk to stuff eventually
putting a theri near bushes or trees makes it harves tthem automatically
I named my theri lawnmower because that's basically what it is
I just mow everything in sight and everything that gets hit in the crossfire dies
Thats any large carnivore lol
They will get mowed as well
so it's like an ability for some dinos to do it automatically?
Yes true. Theri has higher dps than most carnivores. It only loses to them cuz of the carnivores reach and knockback
That's your fault for not being prepared you learn things the hard way in ark
why canβt you cryopod them?
But your talking about a wild carnivore vs a mostly melee mutated imprinted therizinosaurus
well my theris is harvesting bushes but nothing is going in its inventory
only wood from trees
yeah i found thT it just lawnmows bushes passively but doesnt harvest anything
ride it and tickle the flora for its luxurious fiber
I lost all my fiber and hide because I made allosaurus saddles
Worth it tho
What harvesting lvl should I put into on my theri to harvest harvest the most amount of electronics?
Estimate how far I will mutate my theri melee before I get a good saddle. Currently at 23 mutations. Only 90 to go
Any way for me to make a dinos food bar go down faster? Tryna starve tame it
You wait until it's unconscious meter keeps going down and it's food to and just spam feed it narcs
starve tames have no actual advantage compared to normal taming
I'm very sleep deprived so my grammar or spelling might not be the best
you use the same resources
resources are the same. but my point is you wont use less food or get a higher level tame in the end
Why does my game lag every time an egg hatches?
Cuz it's rendering the dino
Is this common?
Happens to me sometimes so I guess
I'm still debating. In my polymer farm my moschops won't kill the penguins. So I'm gonna put another dino in there to kill the penguins then the moschops can harvest. A dilo seems a bit too big. A compy is small enough but idk if it has enough strength to take out multiple baby penguins. I dont want penguins to be racking up in there. Want suggestions?
So I am running cavern of lost hope but there is this enemy tuso stuck in the wall which is completely immortal because of it ( not even my own tuso's can hit it) but this bastard CAN attack my tameds and my tameds keep dying because of that one
how can I handle this?
worst part is this isnt the first time this happened
dimorphodon?
A flyer?
its small and packs a punch
It might get stuck in my farm but ill try it out. Might be better than compy
could arrange them in a row encumbured so they can hit all the penguins on the floor
Bro the theri is hard af to tame
It's torpidy drain is madness
then use narcoberries lol
if you feed any creature 1000 narcoberries, it'll be passed out for a minimum of 50 minutes.
I used about 400 narcos and 800 mushrooms
No cap I've been doing that it burned it all and has 4k torpidy
does it have the torpor to fit in all of that
Huh?
Ohhh
I might place like 1 or 2 in there
i warn you that a penguin farm is pretty inefficient
How so?
babies drop near nothing, you want adults. and besides, the polymer spoils so fast you'll want achatinas to store it
Turns out my put my cannon too far away so when I stand by the cannon, I'm actually out of aggro range of the Rock Ele
I have refrigerators
fridges dont increase polymer spoil time
Oh lol
only thing that does are achatinas by 3x
Preserving bins?
Thanks a lot, I've tried your method out and it worked
No problem
It's going up now all good I fed it alot so it's building torpidy over time rn
each narcoberry increases torpor over 3 seconds regardless of creature. every 100 narcoberries is 5 minutes of torpor increase
Okay then it's torpidy should fill for about an hour
does it have the torpor to fit it though, if its torpor maxes out then all narcoberries wear off
O. Didnt know that. Almost wasted resources on refrigerators lol. Thanks
nah if torpor reaches its full limit all torpor effects wear off
you can see for yourself by eatint like 50 narcotics in game. you'd think that you'd be asleep for a long time but insted as soon as your torpor reaches 200, it starts going down.
Wait can I put a bunch of achatina instead of refrigerators in my farm?
yea
so wait until torpor decreases alot then stuff 1k narcoberries in it's mouth
yep
achatinas passively produce paste and polymer so no need for penguins at that point, you'll just need veggie cakes because thats all achatinas eat
Bruh polymer farming just got harder
This is gonna be my third time taking down a polymer farm
this is why i craft most of my polymer
My polymer farm is just grinding stuff in a grinder. I have 900 organic polymer from it
What you grind?
stuff that take polymer to build, get them in drops
here's a neat trick: craft tek structures with organic polymer and it gives you the polymer back as hard polymer
What if I leave my polymer farm running then the polymer will spoil in my moschops inventory and then it'll harvest more
It gives less polymer tho
whats the point of the polymer farm if its not going to be efficient enough to be useful
Its gonna be efficient. Cuz my moschops have weight reduction and increased polymer harvesting so 1 full inventory is more than enough polymer
i'd rather just raise a bunch of penguins/mantis/karkinos and keep them alive until i need them
U won't ever need that much instant kill candy tho
1 full inventory. do you realize how inefficient baby penguins are for polymer
They may give like 5 polymer but the moschops have incredibly boosted harvesting
Like 60 lvls into polymer harvesting
i dont think that moschops is harvesting is that amazing
1 full iventory is 6000 polhmer, every 30 minutes that 300 polymer going poof
But every 30 mins the moshcops can get so much polymer
I'd rather get gacha crystals of polymer
theyre baby penguins.
or baby penguin eggs since I can store those
wait this is about baby penguin eggs I'm fucking blind
but I prefer pelagornis for baby penguin eggs
hes making an automatic polymer farm using moschops and constantly egg laying penguins
But the moschops have so much harvesting
why
that doesnt change much if the base is like 2 polymer per baby
it's organic polymer
what I want to know is how he's even making it
moschops on aggressive don't attack things
I have a dimorphodon killing the babies
because moschops are cowards
the dimorphon will harvest it then
that's so much work for polymer
I can disable resource harvesting on the dimorphodon
it's better to store away the eggs and use them when you need to craft somethign with polymer
ark isn't made for automation
that just makes them eat the body and not get anything
or get a ton of achatinas
They don't harvest bodies
if you want automation then play satisfactory or minecraft
both have very satisfying automation
aye iβm tryna get back into ark, anyone on official PS4 have an antidote i could get by chance?
nope, that's not how resource harvesting works
It should considering I've fed it about 80 more narco berries and 120 mushrooms
it just makes them eat the body and not harvest anything from it
organic polymer cant be automated without being super inefficient (excluding achatinas)
achatinas are ALSO super inefficient
the longer you wait without using it, the more inefficient it is
1 organic polymer per half hour isn't the most efficient thing in the world
achatinas are mmmmm for paste though
yeah but at least they have the spoil time and size to make up for it
still wouldn't consider them an actually good solution for automating polymer
in the end, you just don't automate in ark without mods
minecraft automation is mmm
yeah neither would i. i'd just store some crappy karkinos and kill them
but its a nice byproduct if i just want the paste
is there any downside to breeding in superlow oxygen and food to hour mutation line early?
is it possible to lose my dino if I leave on wandering? just never find it again
if you mean it dying, yes.
Food can be annoying while raising, oxygen is annoying if you plan to take it in water
what if it just goes too far and I don't know where it is
Wait that's not the setting. Its the "disable victim item collection"
no, that's the items in the victim's inventory
then it still exists but good luck finding it
you can't make them not harvest corpses
I'd say oxygen and speed are the 2 stats to go for in terms of reducing stats
food and speed. oxygen can be useful.
having high food can be useful
if u had 3 females with all the stats you want and had to breed them with some male to get all their good stats together, would you pick a high, medium, or low lvl male?
Yeah have 5 mantis breeding and kill the babies off later for free poly
I'd just do it one by one in any order
I know I'm spending 50 years breeding the stats together regardless
i wouldnt keep tjem breeding.
but with which male? for food/oxygen
I'm sorry, I don't think I understand
also food can be useful for raising or just in general preventing the dino from fucking dying of starvation
Look up which dino has best poly harvest and make it kill the babies so you get more
speed is the only truly useless stat
give it food
Its the moschops
don't let it enter the water
i have 3 females with the health, stam, weight, and melee damage that i want
and a fridge full of males of all levels
idk which male to mate with the females to get all the femalesβ good stats on one tame
deinons
whichever one you want
which lvl would you pick
Do wyverns spawn on the Island ?
Go gen 2 you csn get 2k poly easy with a giga in 20 mins
I dont got a giga...
Or a shadowmane or Rex or theri
I used to make so much poly I'd drop my inventory even
And I didn't even farm it I jsut did missions and killed everything in my way
oh reminds me, extinction drops
My bad
Personally I'd say a Rex it's a easy tame
I think he's playing island only, honestly I'd say he should just get a doedic and a megatherium and craft the poly himself
If you new then gen 2 or ext would be the smart choices
if he can transfer then yeah get a rex and meatrun extinction, or get a megalo and meatrun ab
If he's new he shouldn't be on island yet it's a low resource map compared to rag and val
the island is I'd say the best map for starting out on
really basic, sure low on resources but that isn't really a problem starting out
Or grind the missions on Gen 2 and gen Hella gear
yea but its good to set the island as a resource baseline because it makes the other maps feel 10x better
Wouldnt gen 2 be the best considering you could get a metal base in a few hours
Facts!!
same applies to aberration or extinction or gen 1 lmao
except gen 2 is baby mode ark lol
I don't like gen 2 as a first map, I think it's too easy
Don't solo Island on official it takes longπ
yeah I don't mean official lol
same
i dont even use the tek suit and have my own set of self imposed rules to make it balanced
on official just transfer between every map in existence ig
but singleplayer players often play only on one map
same, I don't get drops from eden or tame stryders before doing bosses
Yeah unofficial you good but Official it's a different thing
transferring in singleplayer is a damn pain man
I just stay here for the missions and grind hexagons and trade
i dont find that fun
I tried to before and saw your world could get wiped so I didn't
world can get wiped?
I've had characters deleted, I've heard dinos can get deleted but never heard of entire worlds being wiped
Yeah gets boring eventually just helps incase you're short of a certain material
not without corrupted saves
ive had 2 of my saves wiped but i think thats just your everyday corruption, ofc over 3k hours
Yeah you have to use the save world command to be good
the characters were deleted because you guessed it, corrupted save
why is that an issue lol. saveworld is a good habit
he never said it's an issue
though I do think it's an issue
having to rely on saveworld to ensure that your world doesn't fucking implode
At first I didn't know what it was and only learned later
"to be good" makes it sound like theres a problem
"to be sure"
what
"to be good" as in "to be sure"
Not like that I meant to be sure your stuff doesn't wipe
ark is a good game but it has a lot of problems which I think deserve to be shat on
Yes exactly
at least theres a workaround though. i look at the bright side, i dont want to mourn the death of my saves for 24 hours.
it's not about mourning
it's about a very major issue
Like de syncing mid mission
anyway, I haven't actually played ark in 50 years
yeah major issue, but at least theres a solution
eh, very makeshift solution
which doesn't work properly
ark is a good game and the devs get a lot of shit that they don't deserve
but some problems are real issues
yes i agree
I think transfers being so risky is one of those things that deserve to be shat on
of course I'll transfer anyway
and then mourn when I have to start from a 6 hour old backup
because I am a responsible human being
i havent had that happened, just lost some dinos until i learnt of saveworld
ask yourself
I'm asking everyone
including myself
i think its because youre sleep deprived
I've been getting proper sleep these past few days
stop lying to yourself
I got 10 and 8 hours yesterday and day before that
oh did you
yes
werent you awake at 1:30 yesterday
I was awake at 12:30
and I woke up at around 9
8 hours yesterday, 10 hours day before that
Why doesn't meat cook in the cooking pot? It's been in there for like 5 minutes but it's not cooking
it's meant to cook in the campfire, not the cooking pot
Damn
yeah, it sucks though. Gotta have multiple campfires since there's nothing between it and grill....
I get a grill asap because it's so damn handy
sucks when you come home with few hundred raw meat, not worth starting the grill
I just put that in the trough
yeah, but if you want to process most of it for yourself...
@visual lantern said youβd get wiped π
Anyone got any advice for mutating faster?
It's taking ages even with boosted rates
thats just mutating, you can get mods to speed it up
Do you have a suggestion?
for a mod?
Yeah
dino storage v2
O yea I've heard abt that
Hey, ive Heard that KBD basilisk spawns on SE and rag, but there are no rock Drake or magmasaur eggs on that maps, will they eat wyvern eggs?
yes
Hey guys! I have recently played on Fjordur map, and i beat some bosses to unlock tek engrams, if i transfer my caracter to extiction map, my unloacked tek engrams will remain or will be blocked?
If you transfer your character through obelisk or supply drop it will keep all of your data(engrams, levels ect)
This is awsome, thank you!
yea
oh my bad i didnt realize that was a statement not a question lmao
I have another question, is anyone playing ark from microsoft store? I don't know where to find the saved data, like saves from maps, characters etc.?
no
Why Microsoft store?
Wasn't it free on steam for some time
yea
doesn't mean some people dont have saves on other versions that they cant transport
Yes, that true. I have it on steam. But i purchase the Game Pass, an ark have all dlc.
I use s+ mod the mutators make it super speedy if you have access to get element easily. You can use multiple mutators to make it REALLY fast.
mating interval as low as possible
use an incubator
mating speed as high as possible
get heaps of females
Just have a pit of one male and a bunch of females
To keep a dino asleep, should I give 1 narcotic or 5 narcoberries ?
If you wanna use mods use dinostorage v2
Whats the most valuable
Narcotics are better but if you dont have that many narcotics just use narco berries
Thanks man
Np
narcoberries are better in most cases
because narcoberries take more time to give the torpor
and if the torpor is increasing then it's not decreasing
but it lowers effectiveness
if you use 6 narcoberries it will be better than narcotics
narcotics raises torpor by 40. each narcoberry raises by 7.5
nope, it doesn't
really messed up that
Depends whichever you got early game
That's what I did
nope, narcoberries are actually just better most of the time
because of this
I use narcs because I have so many of them
narcoberries are quite a bit better for dinos with high torpor loss
that's fair
though I'd rather turn it into arrows
I turn them into darts
i have like 30k narcotics
arrow superiority
dont need that many arrows
I only use arrows for sea creatures or smaller dinos
Because if I use a tranq on a dodo it just dies
punch it then
It also dies
for me it depends on whether I'm feeling like wasting metal or not
I have so much Melee I can one shot most small dinos
It's mad helpful cooks shit in seconds
how do you guys go around and just use flint for sparkpowder for gunpowder for simple rifle ammo for tranq darts? that flint is cancer to get
I have enough metal
I literally have 6 industrial forges
just anky
anky works the first time and never again
okay,
why
Flint isn't a problem to me
why not
it so slow
Because why not and because I can
I take a karkinos
yeah i do too
I was more than satisfied with a singular one
I'm somehow able to save up that much raw metal to be able to fill up most of the forges
Anyone wanna start a fresh world on ps4 ?
I also have no life and I'm bored
and i can get like 5k flint before i get bored and thats only 5k sparkpowder for 5k gunpowder which is only like 400 shotgun shells which is only like 2 days of use
Any map except genesis stuff
Indi or refining?
Industrial
Shit then that's alot
I have no life
what do you need so much meta, for
That's a shit ton of arb tho
Bps just random building projects
Replicators and shit heavy turrets
Stuff like that
only around 1100 arb, thats nothing
it doesnt take 300k metal to make a replicator lmao
It felt like it
Early game 400 metal would do you good but mid game 4k metal and late in the game 30k metal becomes nothing
But Its mostly the saddles that drain my metal
yeah i know but 1 industrial forge is more than enough
late game 4k metal and I'm more than satisfied
I'm bored and have nothing else to do
Takes 5k and if you have enough then why not make alot of replicators for different stuff
i dont need 10 replicators.
Yeah honestly even a 5 man
why do you want 60 replicators
I do
I can understand 2 or 3 but why 60
Reasons
Considering I could sell a replicator to a bob for a Rex or desmo
anyway I'm going back to bragging about my 4k metal
wouldn't the raw materials sell better
whats the bob going to do without tekgrams or element
On our official Ab we have like 10-12 Indy forges as well, itβs rather βfewβ compared to what other tribes got lol
Cloning chambers and other Tek stuff is expensive, same goes for saddles and building projects. Can solo burn through a slotcap pretty quickly so itβs nice to have easy refill
4k is alot!
i can understand that but for general usage, 1 tek rep and 1 industrial forge is more than enough
I'd rather take 5k metal ingot instead of 5k raw metal
Keep stuff because you never know when you'll need it
yeah I mean metal ingots, not like RAW raw materials
its a bob, wouldnt they die and lose it
Yeah exactly
400k metal would be nothing in end game
I doubt s/he's that much of a bob if s/he could afford a good rex
Depending on tribe size cause a 10 man using 1 replicator wouldnt work
I don't wanna count how much metal I have
Ye
i dont even have the space nor time to use 10 industrial forges
At heart we are all bobs
Yep, even totally solo I would usually have like 4 or 6 Indy forges the very least.
Now with a couple people draining it, having this much is kinda must or you sit there for ages refilling a single Indy lol
I usdd to have a couple thousand and then got raided
billy don't you play singleplayer exclusively
I do
Yep why?
I only use one at solo
Being honest if I have 2 indis I'll break one for materials
then why the hell do you need 6 forges
bob
you might enjoy RPG's if you're into that much grinding
Yeah if you get a cloner or some shit out of a drop and you don't have space then break it
Get a stryder to Ab, during x3 you can cap like 15 dedis (raw metal) in some hours with a good rotation (solo)
Im lazy bored got nothing else to do
I have a good RPG for you
That's true tho
i dont like using stryders because theyre busted.
I want more players for it anyway
I can't use em lol
I use my metal mostly on saddles or bullets
realm of the mad god
fun if you have a PC and you're into bullet hells
or warframe
or destiny 2
most RPG's are good for grinding a fuck ton
stop converting people
Fr on single player you don't need that much
we've had enough people converting to pdf
Sunglas
Either a spelling mistake or this server don't allow other emojis
i dont think it allows other emojis
I'm not even sure
yes they did
I usually skim through the news
Donβt think so, Yaka used another disords emoji just now in general
Official is so much more fun compared to unofficial
weird
π
Said no one ever
maybe it's not allowed in #ark-survival-ascended specifically
I can use then
You donβt have a booster role tho
Probably only general
What? Unofficial is mad boring
you need booster for special emojis?
Yea I think so
in the end it has to be this way
Discord wants you to pay for everything itβs so stupid.
MSN or Skype etc did more for free, kinda. Lmao
10 - 20 years ago
eh it's just cosmetics anyway
everything that's not cosmetics is allowed for free, who am I to judge
Since when is discord paying us
wait you arent getting payed?
No
How?
Good point thanks π
400 rupees here
sarcasm
It's a joke
400 runes*
rupees
400 dodos*
rubies
5000 element
no, this isn't morshu
Ya'll watch the new jurassic?
it's rupees not rubies
I'm not morshu
Dominion?
Yep
Ark best update the theri size cause wtf
anyway billy get into realm of the mad god the game's dying and I don't want it to die
I swear it's a good game
Is it on PlayStation?
no I think it's only on PC
Rip
it's a bullet hell which aren't fun on consoles anyway
At least a new Dinosaur game is coming out
it should die, its p2w
DDDD:
no wait it's not actually p2w D:
spill the beans bob
Or nerf that giga size
Gigas are literally the size of a large sauropod in the game
the game's free, it's worth considering to pay 5 or so USD for one purchase which is pretty important (though you can do without it too)
almost all the purchases are either absolute dogshit or cosmetics, apart from character slots and item slots
Yeah they took the size too far
5 or so usd for one purchase which is pretty important
A giga irl is slightly bigger than Rex
yeah but you can do without it, like I'm doing right now
Yep I get it's some apex predator but something that big shouldn't be real
and they give out a decent amount of shit for free during events which happen a lot of the times
I knew that but at least make it smaller
like month of the mad god, it's beginning in like a week or 2 and you can get a couple free character and vault slots using that
I love how dododex kept that desmodus image
basically the game's dying and I don't want it to do
All games come to an end eventually
Even ark is coming to an end soon
doesn't mean you can't delay it
and ark isn't going to die just because ark 2 is coming
it's gonna have broke people like us who can't afford ark 2 so we're sticking to ark one :)
please give me money so I can buy ark 2
I hope people will actually stop whining about the bugs
Yeah cause it's fucking 3 times the actual size
But the theri was huge that thing was the gigas size
Yep not every game is perfect
ky grandmother doesnt know what ark is
you know what I mean
I hate them for itππ
there's a normal amount of bugs
then there's skyrim amount of bugs
then there's ark
then there's games that are broken on purpose
yeah, the devs get a lot of undeserved shit, and ark is a good game
but there's also a lot of deserved shit
Like half the game I play have people constantly harassing the devs over the slightest thing
Skyrim bugs be sexy af
I got graphic mods and lag outtt
Skyrim actually benefits from the bugs because it's actually memeable
like there's an insane quantity of game breaking bugs which have been in the game for absolute ages
It's a great game just had to many bugs when it came out
Skyrims dragon riding needs to be fixed istg
I'm normally one of the guys against the people shitting on the devs
but some amount of shitting on the devs is required
I don't mean "bug hasn't been fixed in 2 days game bad"
I mean the bugs which haven't been fixed in months, even years
I agree but sometimes people go the death threat route and I stop agreeing
everyone who tells other people to die can go die
wait...
Rockstar and Sony deva I'll defend always
Rockstar abandoned red dead online
jokes aside yeah death threats are just bullshit
Bro Ik they focus on Gta 24/7
I just mean normal whining about bugs
Gta online Hella fun tho
I will never forgive them for that they left it so unfinished it could have been so much more after all the fake promises
like you know
the fact that dinopithecus has been bugged since release and you can't put them on any other map without mods
if you try to make dinopithecus spawn on any map that's not valg or LI then it turns into a raptor
I was able to put them on another map
Fjordur
you play on console
oh I should rephrase
I mean make them naturally spawn, not transfer
is there a rockarrot farm on lost island
I don't believe so
Bro red dead online could of been Hella good I swear
damn
and you need a mod to fix it
Wait they spawn on val?
I think that was fixed after like... a few months
not sure on the exact details? maybe 5 months? something like that
Honestly I hope they don't just plop in the carcharodontosaurus and just leave
BUT they still didn't fix dinopithecus not being able to spawn on any other map
Guys, what map is the best for hunting Ice Wyvern, Managarmr and Owl ?
Fjordur
Besides managarmr
Actually check lost island I think it has all 3 I could be very wrong
Because like rockstar they are focusing on their little prize possession instead of fixing past mistakes
Today I found 2 Unicorns
Guess they aren't that rare.
The Ice Wyvern is even Rarer in my map
If your on rag they are basically non existent
Lost island has all 3
I've seen 3 of them so far.
4 actually
But because of their low level so I had to kill them all
Of cource they spawn once at a time.
dinopithecus is meant to spawn outside of LI?
I mean like using ini
Is gen1 master controller like other bosses that just the person doing the summon needs the missions? Or does everyone wanting to get into the fight need the missions done?
You should be fine as long as the person starting it has all of them done
how do i safely tame a basilosaurus without atacking it
kill the mantas with a shark or bary or something
Having an issue spawning ocean platforms can anyone provide the right spawn code would be greatly appreciated
the mantas will aggro you but the basil won't, you can lead them away
also supposedly bug repellant works on mantas but i haven't tried that
but my shark is dead and my bary is VERY low level
welp i wouldn't try it without a water tame that can kill off the mantas
could i use a trex
i wouldn't bring a rex in the water lol
ok well i have a level 70 spino
that should work
Cactus broth works too makes wildlife ignore not just bugs
ok thank you
Could anyone give me a start on there server? Coming back to the game after a while
where do i get cactus on fjordur
#balheimr
Which one is better structures plus or super structures?
The volcano area by the bat entrance
S+
thx
also how do i get 150 black pearls easily on the island i need to make a tek replicator
Kill sea scorpions
Hey guys, uh I'm playing in a server of my friend in map Ragnarok, now I want to go to another map such as The Island, what do I have to do ?
where are they though
deep sea
Go to an ob or drop and tranfer
Transfer
i think they are self hosting
Idk, I think we are
if i kill all low level lightning and poison wyverns is the chance of a high lvl fire egg spawning higher?
is your friend hosting the server from his computer?
if you take the eggs i think
Uh either he is or he's renting a server
Notice that we don't have the server cluster or sth
then i would guess you would have to upload the characters and make sure you have downloads enabled and change the server map then join up and download characters
dont take my word for it
dont do it unless someone else confirms
Yeah, that seems like it to me. You'll have to upload everything you want to keep, and then download it
does a theri farm wood well? thinking about bringing one over
Yeah they are okay for wood
Have all mammoth on follow and you can gather a lot more
Thorny dragons do it decently
How
Your better off using a chainsaw instead of going out and transferring therizinos
Any server works ?
the one your friend is renting i would guess
if he can change the map that its hosting
wait how do you make a chainsaw again?
fabricator
how do i kill an alpha fire wyvern?
omfg got scared for a second bc it flew in my direction
Use a trap surrounded by turrets
can I bring flyers to every map in ark?
I don't think fliers are allowed in Genesis part 1 and aberration
what trap?
can i put it to sleep? do they have more torpor?
You can't use it on Genesis
Alphas don't got torpor
wont be able to ride it
They are immune to knockout
well what trap am i supposed to use then? @silent matrix
Make a cage out of gates like any argent trap
But with behemoths
argent trap?
where are the turrets?
Wait what level are you?
105
Hm
There should be an engram for them available
I think they are crafted in a fabricator
I play single player I just use them because sometimes random dinos wander into my base
so how should i do it? get a paracer platform and put turrets on it?
Surround the trench with a few of them and then lure the alpha and let it just get killed
Ah
So maybe just put them in a place where you can lure the alpha to
wont it just oneshot the turrets? my base got shredded by an alpha raptor once in seconds
Jesus... Then maybe just wait until you got a decent creature to take it on
i have a lvl 266 fire wyvern
but i cant do my usual method on it cuz its resistant to fire
If a structure is not loaded in by the owner of the structure in a certain amount of time it will be automatically destroyed.
can i still make chibis? if so how? im looking in my cooking pot and i cant make any
Does anyone know where I can find crystal in the island
I placed the foundations in a cave yesterday. I just read that lone foundations auto-decays after 12 hours, so thats probably why
I was confused since I've always seen the timer on other buildings but with like up to 30 days
Mountains
Yeah, just either snap another foundation to it or snap a pillar to it and stone lasts for 12 days before auto decaying
Thank you
Np
why does my ark keep crashing? I have 500 hours on ark and this is the first time i cant load it up. I can send screenshots in dm if anybody is willing to help
Is ark cross-play?
alright, I'll do that
Nope
Verify files if on Steam. 
thanks
Damnit
whatβs the easiest spot to spawn in ragnarok
Cross play is between steam and epic or Xbox and windows store
So technically there's no real crossplay. π
Damnit
i need someone to play w on xbox
Does breeding give higher level babies
So do I
cool wanna?
I think only if they have a mutation
But that's some other entire thing
Alright coz I have a level 10 ptera and I cannot find a single higher level one
Even with higher difficulty?
Yep
Get explorer notes
Yeah the early story maps have bad level distribution.
And you should get xp overtime
If you're on Steam you can get a mod to help with that.
I don't recommend killing stuff since it's like lvl 10
I used to use Better Spawns.
What does feeding do?

Other than heal
I think they do get xp from it but not much
Get the explorer notes though
There's tons around the map
Alright sick
I've got a trike a para a ptera and a small hut at South zone 1 is there anything I should be aiming for
Since your early game try building up to an Ankylosaurus argentavis and deodic
Alright thanks for the help
Should I use gestation monitoring for getting mutations on megatheriums
The gestation monitoring is very helpful to help you find out if the baby has a mutation or not
