ark-survival-ascended

[jade hornet]

i know, it is a dilema as far as trust issues go

[topaz mango]

setting up roles is a big chore though

most guys i invite to tribe have played a few k hours already

even some off them havent been trust worthy and have ran off with a few dino

[jade hornet]

we are new to ark but not new to being an alliance/clan/tribe in other games but not all of our members play ark, which I am working to grow our member base in

[topaz mango]

problem is the server transfers, opens up for too many insiders as they call it

[jade hornet]

and we are not pay to win type of group so i already see we are at a disadvantage with those with money that claim to be alpha due to teh money they have to spend

[topaz mango]

really though, u only need 2 people to run ark and do missions efficiently, anymore is luxury

[jade hornet]

just wish we could find some new blood that can be good to go and trusted. we are on smalltribes because we only have less than 20 members total in our team

[topaz mango]

i roll solo now, sometimes i stop and think, i could really do with some help here lol

[jade hornet]

i have realized, i need help myself sometimes, with the daily grind

so far, 2 of us do most the daily gathering while the 2 others are in school

[topaz mango]

u could find someone to alliance up with then merge at a later date when u feel u can trust them

[jade hornet]

and i get it, when they get out of school, they just want to play

[topaz mango]

my first server on legacy, we was just one big tribe on the server anyway (we all had our own tribes) but we all helped and gave dino to each other

[jade hornet]

that seems to be the issues, trusting someone else to not have total access to everything

[topaz mango]

there is always that risk though

[jade hornet]

im working to make our smalltribes server where we are peaceful for the most part, but it seems there are still griefers

[topaz mango]

i had someone in tribe for 2 years, then one day he just up and left with a bunch off dino

never to be seen again

[jade hornet]

ya running a team is heartbreaking

ive ran this crew, at least in name, for a few years

[topaz mango]

risk v rewards

[jade hornet]

right

[topaz mango]

thankfully i have some guys in tribe now i can trust 100#%, they just dont play much

[jade hornet]

i prefer pvp due to if we have to, we can. but much more prefer diplomatic talks

[topaz mango]

pvp is a hole other ball game, im mostly pve now

[jade hornet]

...but you get some bob that now can access c4, and they have to test it lol

[topaz mango]

or is an alt off an enemey which happens a lot

[jade hornet]

ive thought about pve but.. idk... im still on the fence

[topaz mango]

u could do both :p

[jade hornet]

pvp is hearbreakign for sure

but for myself, all i have ever played was pvp games and have found ways to level the field

[topaz mango]

i used too at the start do both, i didnt care what happened in the pvp tribe but i was attatched to my pve stuff as that was my break away so to speak

problem with pvp is guys will use any exploit they can 😐

[jade hornet]

..but in pve, you really cannot do anything to another tribe if they do you wrong, correct?

[topaz mango]

but that can be said for any pvp game

[topaz mango]

you can but very few things within the code off conduct lol

[jade hornet]

well we do play official and it has been often suggested to me that official is trash

but i wouldn know of any private servers to even talk to

[topaz mango]

just recently had a war with another tribe in pve, the devs took there side even though they was griefing me and deleted half my base

i just didnt take favourable means to fight against them

[jade hornet]

ive seen videos , i think nooblets , where it was spoken about teh main tribes did not tolerate toxic or griefing

[topaz mango]

he plays in unofficials though

[jade hornet]

is that really a thing? ll

[topaz mango]

unofficials usually have active admins

[jade hornet]

that i did kinda assume

[frigid knoll]

hey yall babes whitch one is down to play some pve with me?

[jade hornet]

so how does one find a good unofficial?

[topaz mango]

some are advertised

good admins usually have a cluster off servers

with there own disco

[jade hornet]

i am totally ignorant to all that

i would like to have the best for my crew

[topaz mango]

so i guess the first question u want to ask yourself is do u want to play unofficial or official

[jade hornet]

and for sure not seeking a free ride, just fairness and non-toxic or griefers

[topaz mango]

official servers dont get policed at all unless someone throws a complaint

grief comes with pvp unfortuantely, they come hand in hand

[eternal yoke]

Official is scuffed

Cheaters don't get banned

On unofficial cheaters get banned

[jade hornet]

yes I am well aware of what pvp entails, as i have played pvp games for years

[jade hornet]

lol then takes me to - how does one choose the best unofficial for their crew

[eternal yoke]

U got any mates that play

[topaz mango]

one with active admins that care, there are many around

[jade hornet]

so far, we have 4 active

[eternal yoke]

Mesa mts elite ark

[topaz mango]

recruitment will be the channel to scour for that

[eternal yoke]

Those best server rn

[jade hornet]

lol i do uderstand that but ... how does one filter the trash from the good

[jade hornet]

mesa, mts, elite, ark ..

[eternal yoke]

Ye

There the best

I think elite ark trios wipes tn

[jade hornet]

thank you for that info, now i would need to do some research on them all

[eternal yoke]

U want me to inv u to there discords

[jade hornet]

do them all normally have websites with more info?

[eternal yoke]

You will find most info In there discords

[jade hornet]

yes, i will look them over

[eternal yoke]

But some do have info on there website

[jade hornet]

we do run our own website for our gaming team and have multiple channels in our discord for many areas

i feel the thing about this game that can make one successful over another , is knowing your limitations and knowing how to seek help, ARK is NOT a one man game at all , esp in MP

[torn sage]

can u fly manas on no fly zones or are they still considered as flyers

[topaz mango]

u should be able to use mana in that case, they are classed as land dino, so u can use them in ab

[torn sage]

nice

what stats should i put on my mana or breed it for

just gonna use it for pvp that's all

[topaz mango]

melee stam and hp then

how much is up to you

[minor imp]

Where we can see Carcharodontosaurus pls?

[fair wyvern]

#announcements

[fervent herald]

A new Dino?!?!?

That takes on a giga?
Never thought I'd see the day!

[uneven shale]

Yes

[fervent herald]

Well imma check yt vids of its abilities and fighting cause it's Appearently bigger that a giga so it should have better health /Melee and be broken like the Andrew

[topaz mango]

is not out yet

[celest brook]

The carchar is the perfect last dinosaur for ark
It's been so long since a normal theropod dinosaur has been added to the game

[fervent herald]

Yeah Ik but is it rideable?
Many people are saying it isn't?

[fervent herald]

Seems to have a splash effect and DMG increase per Dino it kills according to the dossier

[celest brook]

It might not be because there's a symbol on the dossier that indicates that it can be tamed, but doesn't have a saddle.

[fervent herald]

So it may also be rideable without a saddle? I hope it's rideable

Without a saddle it wouldn't stand against a giga unless it has natural armor

Like a shadowmane

[celest brook]

Kinda a weird creature to ride without a saddle tho
It has so many spikes on its back

[unkempt marsh]

are you able to move mutationns to 1 side

rn i have a hp mutation, but i need it on the mat side

[topaz mango]

breed it with a non mut

[unkempt marsh]

does it work even if it has less than 20 mutations?

[fervent herald]

Maybe the ✅ and X stands for its tame able but can rage like a giga

They said it can take on the most feared predators meaning gigas and Rex's etc but without a saddle it wouldn't be able to do that

[topaz mango]

sounds like its going to be an oversized yuty but damage keeps scaling and buffs itself unlike the yuty

will be awesome for the titans and anything non instanced

[fervent herald]

Yeah but I'm hoping it's rideable at least so we have something against a giga cause land pvp against a giga is virtually impossible

Unless in sitting with another giga with a chance they both die
So this Dino seems to be the gigas match

[topaz mango]

if it doesnt have a saddle im guessing it will have natural armor to be able to take on a giga, all we can do is specculate until release

[fervent herald]

When is it releasing?

Did they give a time?

[topaz mango]

later this year so deffo before xmas as they will be on holliday

[amber harness]

I want to download 3 mods but I want someone to tell me about them
Ark additions
Krakens better dinos
Ark paleo

[halcyon shadow]

Whats the r giga color regions? I am trying to combine the colors(currently have about 20 gigas) and the wiki seems to be broken

[halcyon shadow]

One of the best download i have ever done in my life

Sometimes putting Kraken alongside paleo crashes the game but other than that those 3 are one of the best mod

[amber harness]

So you know about these mods?

[halcyon shadow]

Currently using them

[amber harness]

So what exactly does each mod do

[halcyon shadow]

They basically add new creatures to the game

[amber harness]

And where do they spawn

[halcyon shadow]

They have a spesific spawn location in each map but you can check it by using a software like larkator. For example the scorhed acro will only spawn in desert biome on extinction. You can also check it on the wiki

[amber harness]

Do the mods have their own wiki?

[halcyon shadow]

Yes, a lot of them do

[amber harness]

Ok

Thank you

[halcyon shadow]

You're welcome

[amber harness]

One last thing
Does better dinos mods affect already tamed creatures or only ones that spawn when mod is active

[hard nebula]

do people know wen all the new stuff is coming out

[fervent herald]

Year end

Before Christmas

Hopefully November

[hard nebula]

Thanks

[silent matrix]

Probably during christmas, because at that point a lot of new games come out, so you need to lure players back

[vestal stirrup]

island849 offline?

[tawny nova]

i think so cuz i can't seem to find it on the list

[tough yarrow]

Steam/epic or Microsoft?

[hallow igloo]

I don't see one colored dino on my SP with that event going on this weekend, did wilddino wipe allready, normally events are automatic on SP,just like official servers,can someone tell me why i can't find one colored dino on my SP ????

[vestal stirrup]

crossplay

weird cause SE851 is offline too and i transferred off that last night back to island849

I am a server jonah apparently lol

[buoyant cloud]

desmodus Is it a hard dinosaur to mutate? 🤢

[zealous void]

just realised months after I got xbox game pass I can get all ark dlcs for free instead of saving up my money because they are stupid and force you to buy all of them at once

[tawny nova]

crossplay

[zealous void]

I can say I am now very happy

now I just have to find disk space

[tough yarrow]

If its been down for more than 15 minutes, file #server-reports

[silent matrix]

Are any of TheIsland servers up yet?

[tawny nova]

ohhh yeah for a couple of hours

[tough yarrow]

#server-reports if your servers are down

[random rose]

In pve official, can fjorhawk be killed by wild dino???

[silent matrix]

Is there a command to respawn mutagen?

[silent matrix]

Ye, obv

[ruby dove]

anyone know how much hypothermal insulation i need to survive in jotenheim?

[amber harness]

Scorched ascention when?

[glad totem]

End of the year

Switch gets it this month

[amber harness]

Fr?

[glad totem]

yea

[amber harness]

Will it have extra lvls

[glad totem]

No idea

[tough yarrow]

Switch was October 24th I thought

[glad totem]

supposed to be Sept

[visual wing]

Whats up with ark fandom been griefed by ark wiki?

[glad totem]

It is fan run the fandom

So I assume a fan went ham on it

[tough yarrow]

Fandom is no longer official. Use https://ark.wiki.gg

[glad totem]

It has been happening since wildcard made their own one

[tough yarrow]

Stream said October 24th

[static fjord]

ark fandom is unmoderated and unofficial and thus, people can do whatever tf they wnt
use ark.wiki.gg, its way better.

[glad totem]

How dare they change the date on me

I did not see the stream

[tough yarrow]

you had me confused I thought they changed the date again

[glad totem]

but decided to give up on scorched content cause I did not have the time this month to cover it

Now I gotta reinstall the map

[amber harness]

Also when carcho release

[glad totem]

Later this year

thats all we know

[amber harness]

I hope can be used against bosses

[glad totem]

Only time will tell

[amber harness]

I'm tired of breeding op dinos I just want to destroy bosses

Rockwell hard

😭

[glad totem]

Not sure it even be allowed on AB

since it not native

or am I losing my marbles and that was changed

[static fjord]

the maps its on is released?

[glad totem]

No idea

They have not confirmed anything

Other than it comes out later this year

[cerulean girder]

It’s too big to fit into bosses

[torn sage]

when will 3x end?

[cerulean girder]

12th

[torn sage]

o

how much days from now until fjordur transfers open?

[cerulean girder]

Dez?

[fervent herald]

How long is the boosted rates lasting?

[cerulean girder]

10 days from 2nd

[silent matrix]

Do voidwyrms spawn in all space biomes?

[turbid leaf]

They spawn in the genesis 2 space biome, none in genesis 1.

[silent matrix]

Ye, i knew that

[warm coyote]

Omg the difference of lag between online and offline is colossal

[silent matrix]

But gen2 has multiple space biome variations

[turbid leaf]

Oh, the different asteroids. They don't affect spawns to my knowledge, just resources.

[warm coyote]

I am struggling with killing a medium size dino and yall talking about asteroids? Wth going on here

[tawny nova]

Island 849 back at it as always been down for 10 hours now

[chrome current]

I can cryopod a baby so I can feed it later right?

[tawny nova]

yup

[woven nebula]

bro my wyvern luck is insane

triplets AGAIN, its like my 4th egg aswell lol

also i checked out and tried out deinonychus, honestly, not impressed but could be a good dino to make a massive pack from since the roar is kinda op

[visual wing]

Are there optional habitat-map? Ark-wiki sucks with the habitat maps.

[latent pine]

Hellooo everyone can i play with one of you? I have 500+ hours but no mates, ty :))

[prisma sand]

Deinonychus are some of the best tames for killing bosses

[woven nebula]

well idk i dont see it

then again throw a pack of em at anything and the bleed+pack buff would probably destroy anything lol

[static fjord]

their bleed scales with melee (up to 1.8% per bite and stacks up to 7), which is the best bleed in the game iirc. boss ai also causes them to target exclusively the biggest creature so pair them with a yuty and you can shred down the likes of alpha dragon in a minute or so while barely even taking any damage

[cerulean girder]

Allo bleed is the best

Nice try tho

[prisma sand]

It’s the latch and bleed. The bleed stacks and will melt bosses.

[woven nebula]

yea but the stacks only add 0.125% so

[prisma sand]

Hardly

[cerulean girder]

Wdym hardly

It’s literally the best

[static fjord]

it doesnt, 1.8% 7 times.

[woven nebula]

that is cap

[long flicker]

deinon is the best, but it doesn't ignore armour
with traditional bleeds thyla is the best

[long flicker]

*5 times, but yes

[woven nebula]

thyla on top

[long flicker]

I mean
it's the cap for deinon bleed
he ain't lying though

[woven nebula]

and how much melee do i need to get the 1.8%?

[cerulean girder]

Allo on top sorry

[long flicker]

600%

[strong matrix]

Are there any actually not dead servers

[long flicker]

pretty managable

[static fjord]

yeah my bad, 1.8% 5 times over 7 seconds

[woven nebula]

thats it?

[long flicker]

wdym

[woven nebula]

with my boosted rates i mightve gone a bit overboard...

[static fjord]

according to wiki, allo bleed is 5% over 10 seconds, which is way worse

[prisma sand]

That’s it man. 600 melee latch onto the dragon and the fights over in like 2 minutes

[prisma sand]

And only the pack leader can apply it

[woven nebula]

ight so bring 19 of them boys, a yuty and just win?

[cerulean girder]

My deinos have 3400m I ain’t stressed anyway

[prisma sand]

We killed alpha dragon with 3 nonys and a magma

[woven nebula]

yea mine have 2600 but theyre only +10 lvls each

[woven nebula]

dayum

[static fjord]

deinons have an effective 9% bleed over 7 seconds as long as its constantly being reapplied

[cerulean girder]

My allos murdered the dragon in one landing so you don’t need deinos for it

[static fjord]

literally like a minute and a half and anything is dead

[long flicker]

allo bleed doesn't even work on bosses

[cerulean girder]

Just don’t bring rexes

[static fjord]

arent your allos busted af lol

[cerulean girder]

Never said it did

Only 2800m

[long flicker]

look, I like allos as much as the next guy but even I wouldn't suggest using allos for bosses
and I'm the one who's planning to use allos for bosses

[long flicker]

"only"

[cerulean girder]

But they’re older

[static fjord]

"you dont need theris or rexes for bossfights, just need mega mutated raptors"

[cerulean girder]

My new ones reach 3000+

[long flicker]

you can do it with 1-1.2k melee theris
probably similar with rexes

allos needing 2800 melee doesn't really make them very good

[cerulean girder]

Not rexes

[static fjord]

how many points into melee even is 2800%

[cerulean girder]

I mean they don’t need it, the dragon died in like 40 seconds after landing

[long flicker]

similar base stats at least
final stats would be different since rexes have much higher base health

[cerulean girder]

204 melee points

[silent matrix]

What is a weapon good against a tek wyrm, i am lvl 80

[static fjord]

there is none, youre just screwed

[cerulean girder]

I have rexes which reach 4k melee and allos still kill bosses faster cuz they surround them better and attack faster

[static fjord]

not only are they just strong as a wyvern but they have an innate damage reduction when wild. not to mention the stun which makes rideable dinos near useless

[cerulean girder]

Plus, pack leader allo is essentially a rex that’s just scaled down

[static fjord]

well yeah thats the point: scaled down.

why use x dino when y is way better and takes a lot less time and effort

[silent matrix]

Pump action maybe? Rifle?

[neon mist]

wait can some one remind me is ark two just 3rd person or is it optional?

[long flicker]

allo size is an advantage but unridden allos don't attack faster than rexes
they also do way less damage than rexes
pack leaders also waste dps by doing the secondary

[static fjord]

pump action is your best option, though primitive is going to do nothing because innate damage reduction

[long flicker]

I do like allos though
I plan on using them for the island bosses
in 50 years when I return to ark

[cerulean girder]

Lol

[static fjord]

though imo the only thing you should be doing against a voidwyrm early to mid game is running

[cerulean girder]

allos are the best

[static fjord]

s♾️n

[long flicker]

they're learning!

[cerulean girder]

I got my first mutation on gigantopithecus earlier today

[silent matrix]

So, i should just run loot drops?

[cerulean girder]

On health

[static fjord]

no, you run from voidwyrms.

[cerulean girder]

Lol

[long flicker]

lmao

[silent matrix]

Ye, i read that, but if i am going to get a weapon, should i run for a good weapon?

[fierce comet]

Hi

[static fjord]

yes, good shotgun. longneck rifle isnt very good, nor is fab sniper.

[silent matrix]

Cuz i just remember i also still have an ascendant shotgun over at fjordur, should i grab that one?

[static fjord]

though as i already said, you'd just be wasting your time by killing voidwyrms. theyre gonna keep on coming and eventually you'll run out of gunpowder.

[fierce comet]

Why when I want to download mods it says missing downloaded files and I deleted the game twice last week

[unique geyser]

What boss gives transmitter engram

[silent matrix]

I'll just be a complete bob and ignore tips from you, if it goes wrong i'll just reset

[static fjord]

💪

[woven nebula]

so dragon targets biggest creature?

[static fjord]

most bosses do, except for the obvious

[cerulean girder]

Idk, every boss targets the rider

[woven nebula]

so i could, in theory kill alpha dragon with 4 deinons and a yuty right?

[cerulean girder]

If u get off ur mount and run around, the boss will target you

[long flicker]

they target the strongest dino, not the rider

[cerulean girder]

Well that isn’t true

[long flicker]

well,
"strongest"
there's a priority system

[static fjord]

i mean, yes, but you'd want more since the whole strategy revolves around dragon getting stuck on them and not reaching the yuty

[long flicker]

and also ark AI being ark AI

[cerulean girder]

That’s cap cuz it ignores my tames and goes for me while I’m running around

[woven nebula]

interesting... thank you for the info

[static fjord]

btw, the strategy works with a lot of creatures. namely deinons since bleed kills anything in like 2 minutes but megalos and shadowmanes are other popular options

[woven nebula]

but what if i used something super chonky? like a paracer to tank the dmg

[static fjord]

what would that achieve

[woven nebula]

that i can use 4 deinons and the dragon would be distracted

[static fjord]

i think dragon would aggro the paracer but that wont change the fact that since the dragon is still biting the paracer so deinons would get hit because aoe

[woven nebula]

ah shit

[tough yarrow]

You can solo the dragon with 1 deinon

[static fjord]

there is a safe spot under dragon which allows you to solo it with 1 deinon, hell, even megaloceros

[tough yarrow]

We've done it with 4 deinons and a magma

[fierce comet]

Hi

[woven nebula]

yo should i go get drake eggs?

on fjordur

[visual wing]

Isnt it possible to append a intake pipe to a water well?

[woven nebula]

idk what append means

[visual wing]

Connect the pipe to the well

[fierce comet]

Can some one help me

[woven nebula]

couldnt you just use a normal pipe for that? not an intake?

[woven nebula]

yea, whats up

[fierce comet]

When I want to download mods it says missing downloaded files @woven nebula

[visual wing]

I havent tried with a normal pipe. Does that work?

[tough yarrow]

Should be able to, you can connect an indy cooker to it

[woven nebula]

it could, try it

actually, ill test it for u rq

[tough yarrow]

Verify your files.

[fierce comet]

I do it
And I deleted game twice last week because this problem @tough yarrow

[tough yarrow]

Steam>library>rightclick ark>properties>localfiles>verify

[fierce comet]

I Know

I deleted all mods files

And I unsubscribed from all mods

[tough yarrow]

Go to #bobs-with-probs, check the pins and find the troubleshooting one. If that doesn't help, ask in there.

[woven nebula]

it does work with a normal pipe

just tested it by placing a well, a pipe and a tap, the tap is, in fact, irrigated

[hazy dome]

is there a replay of the stream anywhere?

[weary bobcat]

When’s the next wipe for beginner servers

[ruby dove]

anyone know how much hypothermal insulation i need to survive in jotenheim?

[silent matrix]

Lots

Are there certain ways to look for voidwyrms?

[static fjord]

what do you mean certain. just fly around and you'll see one eventually, or they'll see you first.

[silent matrix]

Idk, maybe they spawn more against walls, high, low, idk. Though there was a lvl 160, but it just decided it didnt want to and flew away

[silent matrix]

Hey, idk if this is odd or anything, but a tekwyrm is following me, touches the blue bridge thing and despawns?

[static fjord]

did they change something recently? my wild voidwyrms could exit and enter space no problem

[silent matrix]

Ye really weird, but the first lvl 20 one i greeted could, cuz i wanted to net it in there, but now it seems like it cant for some reason

[tawny pawn]

alright breeding.. is it better to have a male with best stats or female with best stats?

[silent matrix]

Male

[static fjord]

best stats as in right before mutating, during, or after.

[tawny pawn]

ok so tame a crap tone of felmails and best stats on a male ok thank you

[frigid violet]

How do you heal up dinos? Force feeding raw meat takes ages 😄

[static fjord]

daeodons or owls

[silent matrix]

Force feeding is the only way, next to using a snow owl

Or daedon

[static fjord]

if you have like, 20 dinos preparing for a bossfight, healing them passively over time is a pretty viable option since it takes 0 effort whatsoever

[frigid violet]

Okay, thank you.

Another question about progression - we've now got far enough that death worms are no more dangerous to us than actual worms, what's the next thing to aim for on scorched earth?

[static fjord]

wyverns?

[frigid violet]

Hm, I suppose. Allright. What about bosses?

[silent matrix]

What map are you playing on?

[static fjord]

i recommend 19 rexes and a yuty for manticore. wyverns arent a good option for it.

[frigid violet]

Scorched Earth.

[silent matrix]

There is only 1 boss then, so you dont really need to yet

[static fjord]

you'll need a lot of wyvern talons for beta or alpha manticore so save them up when you kill any, and try getting the artifacts

[silent matrix]

Hey, do you know the max level for voidwyrms on the max difficulty for console? I sas the 160, so i thought: oh, it must be 180 max because its tek, but then i found an 185. Do you have any explanation?

[static fjord]

190, theyre wyverns.

its one of the the highest level dinos you can get right off the bat from taming since theyre 190 from being wyverns and get the 50% bonus from taming effectiveness for a total of 285 at 100% TE

[torn sage]

Wait can the Carhanosaurus Scare dinos? Or make them Be it's allies like yuty

[silent matrix]

Ah, so it shares the egg cap thingy, thx

[silent matrix]

Shi dawg thats kind of OP

[static fjord]

it makes sense.

[silent matrix]

It does, but it is just pretty high up

[static fjord]

you'd expect a tek + wyvern + mutagen eating creature to be a high level

though i guess to balance it out, a lot of people think its breath is actual garbage for pve

[silent matrix]

So i just found a 5 lvls away from max, and it despawned from a bridge? 😂😂

[static fjord]

btw voidwyrms cant be tamed out of space

[silent matrix]

Oh

But if i net it, it will just float right?

[silent matrix]

I suppose

[static fjord]

no idea

[silent matrix]

🤣

Would make sense if it would just float

[fervent herald]

Anyone know any good unofficial servers?

[copper bear]

is it possible to host a small ark server for me and my friend to duo only?

[ivory pond]

@viral shore i have a thought to run by you make it that u get a extra 5 lvls acending from scorched earth

[tawny pawn]

hello i have breed my dinos and when the baby grew to adult it has a 0% of everything (imprinting, damage, restiance)

[silent matrix]

Wha?

Can you send me a pic?

[tawny pawn]

it wont let me here

[shell pecan]

when beginner servers wipe

[silent matrix]

Dm

[tight fossil]

anyone knows if there is a server discord for 974?

[copper bear]

do I just click on Run Dedicated Server to host one?

also, if I just set a password that only me and my friend know, it'll act like a private server, right?

[tawny nova]

wow all (the island)pve server's are down

[warm coyote]

Guys why cannot i see where i died? Like the green line thing

Yes i died like three times, is there a way to not let the green things disappear

[static fjord]

yeah, open the extended hud. by default i think its H

[warm coyote]

Hold on

[copper bear]

this thing popped up when I tried to run a dedicated server, it's a black screen with text with the 1st line saying setting breakpad minidump

does this usually happen when hosting a server?

[static fjord]

the game doesnt allow you to play on your own dedicated server unless you have a strong enough pc to both host and play on it. hence, people either use a 2nd pc or get a third party to host it for money

[copper bear]

oh....

[compact scroll]

anyone on xbox pc version of ark wanna play

[tough yarrow]

@compact scroll #735196267373920286

[warm coyote]

Thank you very much bro

Another question, is there a way to build a bridge over the water? I cant anymore with these frekin water dinos

[limber current]

How deep is it?

[stone shale]

is the Carcharodontosaurus in the game now?

[static fjord]

no

all we know is what we got in the community crunch, including the fact that were getting it "later this year"

[stone shale]

damn oh well i was really hoping it was here

[tawny pawn]

is there a way to speed up the imprinting?

[steep falcon]

Playing ark on custom easy settings as a bad beginner is fun

[silent matrix]

Bro plays for 12 days to wait for a giga egg to hatch on singleplayer 💀💀

[warm coyote]

Not too much

[tawny wasp]

use the official wiki and not Fandom: https://ark.wiki.gg/Giganotosaurus

[halcyon shadow]

Ooohhh, thank you so much alex

[steep falcon]

wdym

[limber current]

If u dont have tek bridge, u can use ceilings and pillars starting from one side, go along the sea floor. When u reach the other side can extend the ceilings above water to finish the bridge

[silent matrix]

Oh, i read it wrong XD

[steep falcon]

Oh okay haha

[fluid pivot]

Good morning all

[warm coyote]

I see thank you

Guys why cannot i see health of enemys, is there a way? Like against a carno level 72, is it possible to kill him with just the basic engrams of weapons?

[limber current]

On maps other than gen1 and gen2 u need a magnifying glass

[warm coyote]

Where do i get crystals

[silent matrix]

Idk what you mean by the first part, but you can just use a longneck against a carno, really

[silent matrix]

Depends on what map, but mostly mountains

[warm coyote]

Mmmh

[fluid pivot]

What map you on?

[warm coyote]

I just see metal on mountains, or you mean very high ones

Island

[limber current]

Some mountains have them

[warm coyote]

I see

[limber current]

I know the 2 in snow does, not sure about others

[fluid pivot]

Theres some on the redwood moutain and on a few smaller mountains in the south side of the map

[silent matrix]

Do voidwyrms only spawn in spefific space biomes? Or can they just spawn in all of them

[limber current]

If u just need small amounts, some of the artifact caves have crystals too

[warm coyote]

Am pretty sure i'd die instant if i go in a cave now

[zealous cedar]

Someone sells Dinos on small tribes

[silent matrix]

Lava/hunter cave have easy to get crystal

[broken valley]

anyone tryna play? im new

[fluid pivot]

If you got a high level saber, bary, or thyla it can be decently easy

[silent matrix]

And no dino spawns where the first nodes are

[warm coyote]

Also is it normal to die every 5 mins in this game or am i missing something lol

[broken valley]

fr

[limber current]

What u dying to?

[silent matrix]

Yep it's normal for noobs

[fluid pivot]

Depends

[warm coyote]

Fun

[fluid pivot]

Are you running into a carnivore on accident or are you dying of starvation

[warm coyote]

Well am trying to get metal on a mountain but every once ina while a raptor or a carno kills me

Pop up out of nowhere lol

[limber current]

Best to not stray far from your farming dinos in that case

[broken valley]

wait how do u get metal

[fluid pivot]

Ah, best chance is to make sure no predators are anywhere with a flyer and once checked land and wait a minute before going and getting metal

[warm coyote]

I i'd tame that level 72 carno i probably be like a boss on there

Mmmh gotta learn strategies

[broken valley]

im so confused can someone help me

[limber current]

Normal rocks have a small chance to get a little raw metal

Rich metal nodes are on mountains usually where they give much more

[broken valley]

oh

[fluid pivot]

Metal is on mountains mostly, it can also be in caves with obsidian and crystal

[broken valley]

ok

thNKS

if i have questions i can also look on the wiki right?

[limber current]

Yes

[warm coyote]

On mountains there are some rocks that if you mine them with iron pickaxe you'll get huge amounts of metal, the first iron pic you have to get it by first pickaxing normal rocks, metal rocks you can see them like they are a little goldish

[limber current]

It also have resource maps and explorer maps etc for other resources and stuff

[broken valley]

ok

that makes sense

[warm coyote]

I wonder evey how much ingame time do resources respawn

[limber current]

Depends on type of resource

[fluid pivot]

Anyways on a side note, the carchara is gonna be terrifying

[warm coyote]

I see

[limber current]

Bushes respawn very fast while others like metal nodes and rocks take long time

Like at least an hour or more

[broken valley]

oh my gosh that thing is scary

[warm coyote]

Bro is scared

[fluid pivot]

Mainly becuse the dossier implies it goes after medium dinos and it seems to be rather fast, possibly faster then the giga and it also seems to imply it might be bigger

[broken valley]

okay ima put what ur guys information and put it to the test.

[warm coyote]

Guys do you have a list of every animal and their favourite food so i can tame

[broken valley]

its on the wiki

[warm coyote]

Game doesn't tell me sad

[limber current]

Use dododex

[warm coyote]

Ok thanks

[fluid pivot]

Dododex is your best friend

[silent matrix]

anyone wanna play a pvp server with me
im 17 from south england
must be over 15 and speak good english
i have over 1000 hours on ps4 and around 100 on pc

[fluid pivot]

Ive got a feeling the carcharodontosaurus might be slightly bigger then the giga sense that skull next to it seems a bit small in comparison to the carcharas head

[silent matrix]

Fucking 0 voidwyrms spawn

[fluid pivot]

They often spawn and fly to 0 0 and despawn afterwards so its hard to catch a voidwyrm

[silent matrix]

[limber current]

What do ppl use voidwyrm for on pve?

[fluid pivot]

Just for coolness factor

[limber current]

Normal wyverns seem to be better than them to me

[silent matrix]

Cuz they aint on gen2

[limber current]

Transfers is a thing

[warm coyote]

If my tame dies is he completely dead? Or is there a way to respawn him

[limber current]

Dead forever

[warm coyote]

Ripp

[silent matrix]

My name is a thing

[fluid pivot]

That and the ability to have a stronger wyvern sense voidwyrm can have a higher tame level then wyverns

[limber current]

Just because u are against transfers mean everyone elae is

[fluid pivot]

Which means voidwyrms have higher stats in general to wyverns however its breath isnt all that effective.

[silent matrix]

Dawg you said to me "transfer is a thing" not to everyone else. If i prefer not to transfer and i say that to you, doesnt mean i tell everyone not to transfer

[limber current]

I said it because it is an option for me, thats all

[wispy frigate]

You did reply to their question that specifically asked about people in general, not just you

[silent matrix]

Fair enough

Damn it the voidwyrm is harder to find then the actual taming

Pain in the arse

[fluid pivot]

Id say keep it as a side objective. try go taming some astrodelphis or astrocedus

[broken valley]

ok this is hard i keep dying every 2 mins

[muted marsh]

is it true that taming is 6x on arkpoc?

[glacial burrow]

is there a way to fix taming efficiency for passive dinos? like if it is a KO dino you can just let it wake up and then shoot it KO again but is there anything like that for passive dinos (shadowmanes in this case)

[warm coyote]

Guys on dodex for the tame thing, under the narcotic box/arrows there are 2 numbers indicating how many arrows i need to tame him, is it the first one or the second?

[limber current]

Yes, u can see it at the server rates channel

[warm coyote]

Not to tame i meant to knock out

[limber current]

Is the number below smaller than the above one? Does it say headshot or something else

[muted marsh]

do you know why the rates are updated?

[warm coyote]

Yea the number below is bigger and says headshot

[limber current]

Some event i think

[static fjord]

then on that creature, hitting it on its head does extra damage which means more torpor and less arrows required

[warm coyote]

Bur how? The number is bigger on head so it doesn't make much sense, thats why i asked lol

[limber current]

Which animal?

[static fjord]

what dino is it?

[warm coyote]

Triceraptor

[static fjord]

trikes take less damage on their heads

[limber current]

Then hit the body

[warm coyote]

I see

[static fjord]

also do you mean triceratops.

[warm coyote]

Alr thanks yall

[warm coyote]

Dunno man all these names are confusing me lol

[static fjord]

yeah its fine

[warm coyote]

Gud

My butt is sweating playing these games lol

[fluid pivot]

So i shown a friend just getting into ark the carchara and i think it scared him away from the game lol

[scarlet violet]

Can we just delete giga

Carcar is just a giga tlc

looks better
probably mechanically better too

Just as big if that matters

[warm coyote]

How do i see how much damage a weapon does

[static fjord]

probably the reason why we dont need carcar lol.

[static fjord]

in settings, enable floating damage text

[warm coyote]

Alr thanks i'll look it up

But is there like a way to see before i hit a mob how much damage it does?

[silent matrix]

Some really weird glitch just happened, i came out of the space biome and the map was literally upside down, not the screen, not my character, the entire map, then it started loading, and the map was normal, but i spawned outside the barrier (from above) and fell right through back to the normal map lol

[hazy dome]

any replay for the stream?

[fluid pivot]

Rumored to be bigger in the dossier

But in all honesty im welcoming the carchara into the game, besides its a different option to the giga, gigas over all strength while the carchara seems to be more of a utility then brute strength

[scarlet violet]

Id rather have carcar and just remove giga

but they shouldve just tlced giga to begin woth

[fluid pivot]

Gigas do seem a bit outdated but still i welcome the carchara, its a new large predator, im all for it

[sage jacinth]

No

[fluid pivot]

No?

[scarlet violet]

Ye i really dont care which type of creature we get

Insect, bat, giga, dragon idc

As long as it adds something new and different without destroying the game im fine with it

[frosty aurora]

yo please fix the down servers

[scarlet violet]

But i wouldve like it more if wildcard just tlced all of their old dinos

[rapid bloom]

When do fjord transfer open?

[fluid pivot]

It could be possible theyre gonna do that who knows

[limber current]

Sept 9

[rapid bloom]

Sweet thanks!

[scarlet violet]

I doubt it because ark 2 is coming

And the old dinos that do come back will be new and shiny again

[fluid pivot]

We're still far away from ark 2s launch so that means we still got stuff changing in ark 1

[scarlet violet]

And definitely theyll be more fleshed out because in recent times they got better at making creatures

[fluid pivot]

Hell they finally are addin in scorched ascension and adding in the last dino which might be an all map dino

[scarlet violet]

I thought they said it was an all map dino?

[fluid pivot]

I might of missed it if they did say it was but with what i seen they havent confirmed if it is a allmap dino

[scarlet violet]

Actually, what i really want is ark additions to become part of the actual game….

[fluid pivot]

That would be cool

[scarlet violet]

Ark additions nailed all their dinos, and deserve a spot in the game

They fit the style, each one is just as good at the newer creatures on concept and detail

[wispy sapphire]

Am and if it is a dino in which you have to go to a specific place, for example the mini bosses of fjordur, to be able to tame it?

[fluid pivot]

The acro, brachy, deinotherium, deinosuchus, all of them are cool. Then again i think the brachy and deinosuchus are a bit much

[scarlet violet]

I mean every dino in the mod are endgame tames really

[grim forum]

when im taming high level rexes with a 176% crossbow some of them end up dying? am i doing something wrong am i supposed to be waiting a few seconds with each shot?

[scarlet violet]

I really sont think there would be a change to how pvp works now aside from the fact people might not be using gigas anymore (oh no im so sad!!)

[fluid pivot]

The brachy feels beyond that but then again its very squishy against gigas so im not sure where to put it

[limber current]

Yes, and use a magnifying glass to see its torpor when its bloody

[scarlet violet]

Wouldnt change much in that regard….. just means that itll only be good gor taking out bases that are in the open

[fluid pivot]

That and if they did add the ark additions mod into the game that would mean we would get the savage acro and god knows what people will do with that thing

[scarlet violet]

True

But i mean boss taming is already a thing

[placid sundial]

Or they pull a fenrir on it

[scarlet violet]

And the game itself if kinda on its last leg

[fluid pivot]

Especially sense the savage acro if i recall can destroy every building tier with ease, even metal and tek without any issue and it takes pure strategy and lots of tames to take it down sense it had over 1 million hp and gigas and shadowmanes are useless against it

And i think fenrir is useless against it too

[scarlet violet]

I agree

[placid sundial]

well that's my point, fenrir is a Garuga creature that was made official and nerfed to shit

[fluid pivot]

I doubt the ark devs would actually do that to the savage acro

[placid sundial]

They did it to fenrir

[scarlet violet]

I feel like they would when they learn how people cheese bases with it

[placid sundial]

more likely they wouldn't include it at all though, it'd only fit in vanilla in a boss arena

[fluid pivot]

If i recall fenrir wasnt fully meant to be a boss just a tamable creature. The savage acro though, that things untamable

[scarlet violet]

I think every creature aside from savage acro work well as end game tames. And also have hard counters

[fluid pivot]

Yeah

[scarlet violet]

Xiphactinus would be awesome and make the ocean fun as well

Same with heli

Tuso counter sounds nice

[fluid pivot]

Savage acro could be a boss however the mechanic of the acro glands may need to change but i do see it being a world boss

But you can only spawn it in a specific location and nowhere else

If you do it in a boss arena it would have to be heavily weakened and that just defeats the purpose of even have the savage acro at all

[placid sundial]

But you're also heavily weakend

Except you can bring capped gigas to a worldboss, not a boss arena

[fluid pivot]

Thing is if its a world boss, you can keep everything about it, its high hp, its resistance to gigas and shadowmanes, everything. A boss arena would cause it to be heavily weakened and just make the fight boring

[placid sundial]

nothing about boss arenas makes it unable to have resistances to specific creatures (and you still can't bring gigas into boss fights)

A boss arena would cause it to be heavily weakened
You can have something with 4,000,000 hp and it means nothing if your tames do 2,000,000 damage

What matters is relative strength

[static fjord]

you dont really need to nerf shadowmanes either. they arent very op compared to theris, rexes or reapers in a bossfight scenario.

[placid sundial]

And there's much heavier caps on your strength in a boss arena than in the world

[fluid pivot]

Thats the thing the savage acro has a cap on how much damage you do, 1,500 is the max

[placid sundial]

You can say it's 'weaker' but that doesn't mean easier if your tools aren't as strong

[static fjord]

also isnt the boss like, really boring? correct me if im wrong but it has the same generic "collect 50 billion of this" requirement and it seemed like alpha broodmother except you need to send dinos out periodicially/whistle them away because it just destroys you with one of its attacks

[fluid pivot]

Thats why the fight is so long, you got a damage cap and you cant swarm it with shadowmanes and gigas. It makes you use things that can be built to fight it like rexes, acros and maybe even deinosuchus.

[placid sundial]

And that doesn't change if you put it in an arena

[static fjord]

my problem with that is, regardless of what youre swarming it with, its still a "whistle attack target" bossfight. i'd like to see something more interesting and fun like cmc or ab rockwell

[placid sundial]

you cant swarm it with shadowmanes and gigas
you can swarm it with theriz, rexes, acros, deinos, titanos, titans, etc. hence, an arena helps make it harder.

[fluid pivot]

I just dont see it fitting a boss arena, world boss seems more fitting for it. Mainly because we have open ground to gtfo and get more gear if things go wrong and if its a arena boss the acro can just snipe you off your tame and end it instantly and kill all tames sense youre not in the arena anymore

[placid sundial]

So again, making it easier than an arena, when your initial objection was that arenas make it too easy?

[fluid pivot]

It makes it way more stupid and it just feels like a waste of time if the savage acro was a boss arena, a world boss atleast lets you continue the fight

[placid sundial]

Rockwell can also snipe you off your tame, as can Dragon

[static fjord]

snipe you off as in the huge aoe roar?

[fluid pivot]

The savage acro has a small roar that can snipe you off of tames and knock fliers out the sky and stun them.

And that same roar can insta kill you no matter what

It doesnt instakill the tame, just you

[static fjord]

yeah i feel like that should just get reworked

[fluid pivot]

The difference is with rockwell if i recall is its not an instakill, dragon i dont recall

[limber current]

Dragon is not

[placid sundial]

That's fair, but also a small tweak to make it not instakill

[long flicker]

titanomyrmas

[low canyon]

why do dinos keep disappearing when im fighting them

[limber current]

Do they get stuck in your dinos?

[fluid pivot]

Still would be stupid sense it would stun your tame and also one shot you by biting you or doing the stomp and doing heavy damage to your tame

[low canyon]

mesh holes in the terrain? dont think so i just tried killing a dodo that vanished and another dino

[static fjord]

I mean yeah but I feel like there should be at least some room for error because just destroying everything you have because of a single attack that imo isnt very fun and interesting. its more so just haha L screw you, you didnt move in time.

[vestal stirrup]

so are all island and scorched earth servers still down?

[thick plinth]

centers down too. only 17 servers online for windows

[vestal stirrup]

oh well, at least we're not missing a taming or resource event eh

[fluid pivot]

The stomp is that kind of move but thats what makes it interesting, other bosses dont really have that mechanic other then rockwell prime with his aoe but even then Rockwell primes aoe if i recall isnt as deviatating as the savage acros

[static fjord]

take old megapithecus for example: i dont really think anyone enjoyed losing everything because a rock clipped their characters hitbox on their dino and they instantly died. all it really did was make people not join the fight and whistle attack target

[thick plinth]

not like its the last event of its kind @vestal stirrup

[vestal stirrup]

No, but i was looking forward to taming some funky colours over the weekend while i have time off 😄

[fluid pivot]

Yeah but the difference is if i recall the megapithicus's rock was glitched to do that

Unless my friend misinformed me and that was intentional

[static fjord]

yeah but i dont think glitch or not really matters.
in the end, all it does is make people not want to actually jump into the fight and solidify the conventional "whistle attack target and sit back" playstyle

imo, cmc is one of the best bossfights because its immersive, fun and interesting.
i dont really see how savage acro would be that much noteworthy than broodmother or megapithecus other than the fact that you might need to mutate for another 6 decades of your life

[placid sundial]

Yeah most of ark's boss fights aren't particularly interesting because they come down to 'bite harder, tank more'

And that's on Ark's combat itself, really

For any genuinely interesting fights, they kinda have to be heavily created around the arena like CMC

[fluid pivot]

The only time you gotta worry about insta death though is when its enraged and it just does that aoe roar and roar snipe that can just instakill everything without any issue. Thats when you start running from it to encourage it to do the aoe roar and make it taunt for bigger damage openings sense if i recall the damage cap is removed during the enrage state but might be wrong on that

Roar snipe insta killing you mostly but also stunning tames caught in its way

[static fjord]

as cool as that would be in a game with proper combat, ark really isnt the type of game to hit and run. you need to devote your entire playstyle in a bossfight to one or the other because doing the latter mid fight just screws you over with crap ai

imo,roar insta kill needs to go regardless of what kind of combat were talking about though

[silent matrix]

as someone who's actually fought savage acro, i'd say an arena would work for it

[fluid pivot]

Not to mention its damage doubles and its about on par with the damage its triple stomp does normally so having it be an arena just feels like a disaster sense youll get stuck on a lot of things. The best way to fight it is on flat ground like the dunes of the desert or flat areas or just send in dinos to slow it down as you move back

[silent matrix]

it would probably have to be a large arena, and maybe with a higher dino limit, but i wouldn't go as far as to say that it "wouldn't fit"

S-Acro is one of the few bosses you can't just whistle attack and afk on, you need to be there whistling things in and out

but that's totally possible in an arena

[fluid pivot]

Most arenas are hilly and have odd terrain so if the savage acro was an arena id imagine the ark devs would purposefully make it hilly to screw people over when its enraged

[silent matrix]

it's important to consider the fact that arenas aren't actually bound by the traditional design

they can have no dino limit, and allow infinite drag weight (see:moeder)

or have a higher dino limit (overseer)

an arena can be whatever they want

[fluid pivot]

True but the issue of the arena is worrying. Having it be a world boss makes it way more open sense id imagine the areas you can fight it in can vary

[static fjord]

speaking of moeder, savage acro seems like it could fit as a genesis bossfight. granted, not in lore or anything and it'd need some scaling down

[fluid pivot]

Oh god savage acro in the volcano gaunlet mission

[silent matrix]

scrolling back through, i realize now that this conversation is about adding ark additions to official. if i recall correctly, garuga didn't even want that to happen (don't take my word for it, i'll find a source)

[placid sundial]

^

mod content has a long history of being butchered from the author's design when it goes official

Look at Valguero

[silent matrix]

i misremembered

[silent matrix]

didn't they delete a whole-ass spawner

[fluid pivot]

Yeah

[placid sundial]

They broke the Ab one with loading something

A looot more content than just spawners got cut though

[fluid pivot]

The rockdrake spawns were removed

[silent matrix]

wasn't valg gonna be a 3-layered map?

[fluid pivot]

We were originally meant to go grab argy eggs from nests

[silent matrix]

surface-ab-abyss?

[fluid pivot]

Abyss?

[silent matrix]

ocean zone

the one nobody visits

[placid sundial]

instead it's surface -> ab-yss

[silent matrix]

because it's broken

[fluid pivot]

Oh

Wait the underwater ocean was meant to be under the radiation zone?

[limber current]

How broken? It seems fine to me

[errant shore]

Where can i ask about spoilers towards the fjordur map ?

[silent matrix]

spawners are fucked down there

and it's pretty barren

[limber current]

Isnt it only the emerald forest?

[fluid pivot]

Nothing can be as bad as the mass spawn of squids on rag a long time ago

[limber current]

The underground forest

[placid sundial]

Nope, source: was testing spawns on there

I had to wait half a fucking hour to see anything even start appearing

[limber current]

That wasnt intended?

[placid sundial]

it was

[placid sundial]

Or, has rexes

[silent matrix]

rag squids cannot top the entirety of crystal isles official

which they butchered too tmk

[errant shore]

Can i say it here ?

[silent matrix]

Normal Rex's at that

[fluid pivot]

There was literally hundreds all in one single area and there was so many most of them didnt even render in properly

[limber current]

Isnt rag squids the best place to find high levels due to how many spawns there?

[silent matrix]

no spoiler rules anywhere, you can mention anything and everything

people were talking about the final boss day 1

[fluid pivot]

And by extension tons of alpha squids spawned there too and it was absolute torture trying to get a squid

[silent matrix]

Crystal isles spawn is just as bad as the abb trench imo

[errant shore]

Oh okay good. In that case.

Can someone TELL me if there is a spider like boss on Fjordur map.

[torn pier]

Beyla

[static fjord]

yeah, broodmother

beyla is a bee, no?

[low canyon]

3rd time now about 25% of mobs keep vanishing when im fighting them

[fluid pivot]

Isnt beyla a bee

[errant shore]

Well heck..

[torn pier]

both are arthopods

[torn pier]

I thinks its a moth

[low canyon]

im in west 3 coastal area on the island

[wispy sapphire]

Its a bee

[fluid pivot]

That thing doesnt look like a moth to me, that thing looks more like a bee

[torn pier]

wdym vanished

[low canyon]

all along there its been happening wonder if its got loads of mesh holes

[wispy sapphire]

In game ofc

[static fjord]

yeah and humans and cows are both mammals but theres still a pretty big difference

[low canyon]

they just despawn gone

[errant shore]

I thought id miss out a spooky boss if i just started fjordur now im hesitant RIP

[fluid pivot]

You got a big oh spider and a giant bee to worry about

[torn pier]

Increase your render distance or increase despawn time

[errant shore]

I like bees

[low canyon]

3 times in row thinking my game is bugged or something not even using mods

[wispy sapphire]

That bee dont like nobody

[static fjord]

beyla doesnt like you

[low canyon]

or world is bugged

[fluid pivot]

A bee that you fight in a tiny room and its pretty big

[silent matrix]

Why do i only find lvl 20/55 voidwyrms? What up with this crap?

[fluid pivot]

Youre just unlucky

[errant shore]

Thats okay im used to that XD

[low canyon]

once in a blue moon sure may happen but that often in such short span of time somethings definitely off

wonder if the dino im fighting on is bugged or something

[silent matrix]

Ye, found a 170. What is 10% of 7205?

720.5 thank you

[limber current]

What does the 7205 refer to?

[silent matrix]

Hp

[silent matrix]

Dawg how am i supposed to mount it after it is low hp enough

If i get close it just bites me

[static fjord]

you need to tank its hits

dont think theres any cool trick, just tek jetpack into its skull and spam your mount button

[misty turtle]

Go fast ig

Become flash

[silent matrix]

Thanks man, at first i thought i should just stand still

[silent matrix]

Spamming, got it

[misty turtle]

Spam like you never spam before

[static fjord]

bait it into using its zappy lightning attack and then dash into it and spam mount

the bite hurts a lot more

[silent matrix]

Ye i failed lmao, it just bit me 3 times and i died lol

[misty turtle]

When you see it do the animation breath jetpack right away under it

[low canyon]

does increasing stamina also increase how fast it regens or is it a fixed rate on tamed dinos

[frigid violet]

Is it possible to alter my characters appearance? It is too high to get through stuff

[lost prism]

is there a faster way to get in game support on official ?

[torn pier]

Eat organic poly, hit create new survivor, spawn, use forcejointribe

[fair wyvern]

Fixed rate

[torn pier]

only works if you have a tribe

[fair wyvern]

Other than the ticket system? No

[frigid violet]

Won't I lose all the levels on this one? I do have a tribe

[torn pier]

are you on single player or unofficial?

[frigid violet]

Single player with friends (non-dedicated)

[torn pier]

Yeah do that

[lost prism]

dang it . wel if it takes 3 days i guess the rest of my dinos will die too

[frigid violet]

okay so how exactly? I can just do hurtme 100000 but what's the forcejointribe part and will I have to re-level all my levels?

[slate widget]

the only way to redo your survivors appearance is to make a new survivor.
yes you'll need to redo levels and engrams

[torn pier]

Use the MakeTribeFounder command while looking at something your tribe owns

[static fjord]

if forcejointribe 0 0 doesnt work, use taketribe 0 and then maketribefounder

[torn pier]

what level is your survivor?

[frigid violet]

98

[slate widget]

singleplayer settings?

[frigid violet]

stock, dino level 1.0 and dino spawn 0.875 or something i think

[slate widget]

do you have singleplayer settings enabled? :P

[frigid violet]

I don't know what that means. 😛 Doesn't everyone...? When you start playing you choose settings like difficulty etc

[slate widget]

it changes how much XP you need per level

[tired oriole]

can someone enter the official servers of "the center/PvE/cross play"?

[static fjord]

No
its a tickbox in settings but its really more like "buff a ton of stuff settings"

[slate widget]

there is a checkbox that is "singleplayer settings" if you haven't turned it off then I'll assume its on :P

[static fjord]

has nothing to do with actual singleplayer

[torn pier]

use AddExperience 129725

you should get to exactly level 98

[clever gorge]

Monthly wipe official pvp servers request

[static fjord]

should be able to just check your characters xp assuming you havent already deleted it

[frigid violet]

134959 exp is what I have now

[slate widget]

singleplayer settings is on then.

[frigid violet]

imma type this down, its a lot lmao

[torn pier]

theres a website called arkids that can help you

really useful

[static fjord]

good to know, go ahead and make a new character.
taketribe 0
maketribefounder
addexperience 134959
add your levels and engrams

think thats done

oh also imprints

[slate widget]

taketribe gives you all the tribe's stuff :P shouldn't need to do maketribefounder

[inland jay]

any one got any ideals for a bridge ark idk how to fill in the top part of the side arch

[static fjord]

note down your characters id in the specimen implant so you can take all imprints

[frigid violet]

oh rip imprints

Oh that's possible? nice

[slate widget]

TransferImprints <oldPlayerID> <newPlayerID> <NewImprinterName>

[static fjord]

theres a number like 293299320394 in your specimen implant along with gender etc. note it done to transfer imprints

[slate widget]

that'll change all of them. including ones in cryopods :P

[frigid violet]

okay, cool. Thanks!

The reason for all this, you ask?
I am 1-2 inches/cm too tall to pass through door entrances

so i wanna test a lower character lol

[static fjord]

if youre just testing, dont delete your old character and just keep it in upload

[frigid violet]

yea I'l do that first, see if the exact same scenario can work on a different save

[static fjord]

because ark is buggy enough for me to think you cant enter/exit a doorframe regardless of character

[hazy coral]

Do lighting wyvern babies grow without eating during this #server-rates ??

Im smalls

[uneven wyvern]

wyverns need milk

[silent matrix]

When i spam it, i just instantly dismount it

[static fjord]

it'd still take roughly 18 hours so big doubt, but you can use daeodon/owl

[static fjord]

yeah when i said spam, i mean dont spam it after you ride it lol. spam reasonably.

[silent matrix]

Ye no shit after you ride it, but does it stop moving and stuff after a breath attack? Cuz it looks like it does

[static fjord]

dont know

[silent matrix]

🥲

Now i missed out on 2 high level ones cuz i spam too much

[uneven wyvern]

does kibble work on snails?

[static fjord]

no.

it only wants your veggie cakes.

[uneven wyvern]

😦

[silent matrix]

Holy fucking shit i got it

Jesus christ what a pain

[static fjord]

🐀

congo rats.

[silent matrix]

😄

Now i can use it to grab a ferox, bring the ferox to a safe place, and tame the ferox

[warm coyote]

Guys where do i get chitin early on? Is there an ez way or do i have to be lucky enough to find those river animals with chitin

[silent matrix]

when does carcharodontosaurus release

[fair wyvern]

Later this year

[static fjord]

we dont know, all we know is later this year

[silent matrix]

k

[silent matrix]

Bugs/trilobite

[static fjord]

trilobites (the river dudes) but if you can, pulmonoscorpius, araneos, arthros etc drop chitin. theyre commonly found in caves but pulmonoscorpius can spawn outside of them.

[silent matrix]

Hey, does passive taming use a different taming multiplier or sum? Dododex said i only needed 3 for the wyvern, but i ended up consuming 5

[slate widget]

crystal wyvern? make sure the rates are correct and disable the sanguine if you aren't using it.

[silent matrix]

Sanguine? What sanguine?

And no, the voidwyrm

[slate widget]

sanguine elixir, the desmodus gives them. gives 30% to taming or imprint.

[silent matrix]

Oh ye, i just call it elixer, i forget the name always lol
No, i do not use it. Is it auto turned on/where can i turn it off?

[slate widget]

right at the top of taming

[silent matrix]

Doesnt appear for me lol

[slate widget]

what are your rates?

and what level

[silent matrix]

5x taming, lvl 185

[slate widget]

mine says you should use 8

[warm coyote]

Are ya playing online or offline

[slate widget]

are you on singleplayer?

[silent matrix]

Ye so now i wanna tame a ferox, but i only have 21 element so idk if i have enough

[silent matrix]

Forgot to mention, i also have sp settings turned on

[warm coyote]

What does sp settings do

[slate widget]

tons of stuff

[silent matrix]

Make everything very easy

But not in a very op way

[slate widget]

https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Single_Player

[silent matrix]

Just, in MP you can go offline, in SP you cant, so this boosts your things

[warm coyote]

Ohh its just normal singleplayer

I thought it was an extra setting to toggle on

[silent matrix]

Is this link for me or rateb 😅

[slate widget]

its a setting in singleplayer

[silent matrix]

It is

[warm coyote]

Dayum

[slate widget]

rateb :P its singleplayer related stuff

[silent matrix]

Yee

[warm coyote]

Lol

[slate widget]

you can enable it on servers as well not sure why you'd want to tho 😂

[silent matrix]

Found the reason why it took 5 yet?

[warm coyote]

I mean if am playing sp is not needed ig

[slate widget]

nope did you have any gen2 boosts on?

mine says 3 as well

most likely lost some %, did you take long to do it?

[silent matrix]

That wouldnt make any sense, would it? A negative boost? Lol

[slate widget]

they sometimes break settings.

[warm coyote]

Ah yes ×-1

[silent matrix]

The first barrel roll i did was with 100% and was 20% taming

[slate widget]

might just be off for the voidwyrm then very strange

[silent matrix]

I got the asteroid crare and baby boon boost. Odd, because dododex is always right for me?

[warm coyote]

Me when a carno follows me:

[static fjord]

did you dismount during the tame or anything?

[silent matrix]

Nope

[slate widget]

yeah, I think the voidwyrm could just be wrong. its a unique tame afterall :P

bloodstalker is also wrong tbh

[static fjord]

yeah no clue.

[silent matrix]

Ah

Well that sucks

Idk if i should go for the ferox now

[static fjord]

i have no idea how people tame feroxes

[silent matrix]

Wym

[slate widget]

you give it element and survive

[static fjord]

half the time my ones mesh into the floor and straight up die when tranforming

[slate widget]

lol. never had one mesh yet.

oh, I have mesh deletion disabled

[silent matrix]

I have never played genesis, so i have tamed none of these

[static fjord]

youre playing genesis.

[slate widget]

fjordur and lost island have them I believe

[silent matrix]

Actually, now i think about it, the tames i have right now on part 2 are only from genesis 😂

[slate widget]

yeah they are on both gen1 and gen2 :P

[silent matrix]

Not that i have had a character on them before

[raw rune]

Can you get chibis cause I’ve seen videos where you can get other ones besides the noglin

[silent matrix]

Oi, the taming speed doesnt affect the amount of element for the ferox at all

[slate widget]

have heard that as well

[static fjord]

yes

[silent matrix]

Ye, idk, i have a shadowmane one, not sure how i got it

[raw rune]

How

[slate widget]

besides shadowmane and noglin, only during events

[silent matrix]

Then i am good i guess

[static fjord]

theres chibis for a lot of dinos, you get them from events

which dont exist right now, and for all we know could never come back...

[warm coyote]

Guys is there any way to escape a fast dangerous dino?

[south garden]

SELLING Alpha Broodmother in 10 min For Arb,Dust

[static fjord]

be faster, or be more dangerous.

[warm coyote]

Dam

[raw rune]

How do I get the shadomane

[slate widget]

do the genesis chronicles

[raw rune]

And that is what exactly

[slate widget]

long note run across all the maps

[raw rune]

Oh

[slate widget]

don't think its on gen1/2 tho

think its the story maps besides those 2

[raw rune]

Ok thx

[orchid frost]

Can someone help me real quick? I got a server but the farming is weird. Like I get 4 items every few seconds instead of an item every time I hit a tree for example

[silent matrix]

Thats normal for servers

[orchid frost]

Oh. So you can't change that?

Cause this farming feels kinda weird ngl

[silent matrix]

You can change it, probably, but i dont see why. It will cause a lot of lag, i think

[wispy frigate]

Optimized harvesting is the setting, turn it off

[dreamy totem]

Have the severs gone down? All my tribe got kicked off our gen2 server and we can’t get back on

[wispy frigate]

Doesn’t really cause any lag unless you’re harvesting millions of resources in like 0.1 seconds

[silent matrix]

Why is it auto-enabled then?

[orchid frost]

Optimized farming? Question is where I can turn it off. Imma see where it is

[slate widget]

should use clamp resource harvest damage anyway for lag :P

[wispy frigate]

Sp settings is auto enabled in sp lol

[slate widget]

SP settings is intended to be enabled on singleplayer. optimized harvesting isn't auto enabled game-wise :P would be however you created it (server host or whatever :P)

[calm plank]

does anyone know why some servers went down?

[orchid frost]

well the setting isnt there so what would be the config name of it

i can just add it to the server config

[slate widget]

?UseOptimizedHarvestingHealth=

I don't think you need the question mark lol

[orchid frost]

thank you

[ancient steppe]

Hi

Today i teleport to asgard for a gasbags and i come to home with one 145lvl r-equus, 2 maewings and one 145 gasbags.

[orchid frost]

is it false and true or 0 and 1

[slate widget]

true or false.

[orchid frost]

and i also read about a setting about clampressourcehealth or something

i put that in as well and set it to false

[lethal garden]

so ive been seeing alot of stuff. some say october some say september. if you have ark on switch does the update for switch ark island/scorch come out in september?

[slate widget]

october 24th I believe. was delayed.

[orchid frost]

and after that i will get uneven numbers rught?

[lethal garden]

aw thats sad. but i mean its been this long just happy its happening at all

[orchid frost]

cause uneven numbers like ressources with every hit feel satisfying

[slate widget]

🤷 most likely. perry is the one that said optmized harvesting health was on :P

[uneven wyvern]

i got a green dodo i named hulk

[orchid frost]

i hope

[wispy frigate]

I mean every time someone has an issue like that its always optimized harvesting

[warm coyote]

How rare is a wild tek parasaur?

[silent matrix]

Not rare at all

[fair wyvern]

There’s like a 5% chance of a parasaur spawning as a tek variant

[warm coyote]

I see

[fluid pivot]

Currently working on a small drawing in celebration of the carcharas arrival

[ancient steppe]

How many % is on tek stego to spawn

[silent matrix]

I am waiting for a bowl of food to teleport in my hand

[silent matrix]

Same thing

[static fjord]

think all tek variants are the same

[fair wyvern]

It’s the same, 5%

[silent matrix]

But stegos spawn a bit less than paras, so i guess you could state those are more rare

[ancient steppe]

I'm seeing tek stego everywhere but parasaurs gone for milk

[static fjord]

luck

[silent matrix]

What map?

[ancient steppe]

Fjordur

I live near castle

[silent matrix]

Ye no shit, parasaurs barely spawn there

At that place spawns way more stegos than paras

[static fjord]

i feel like thats not very obvious lmao

[ancient steppe]

Now I know

[silent matrix]

The castle is more in the mountains/forest, so ye

[ancient steppe]

There are so many mountains

I sometimes i can't get into this castle after teleport

With deinonychus

[vestal stirrup]

have they posted anything about why island, se and center aren't available on official?

[orchid frost]

it worked but now the farming rate is 1 even tho the config says 3

[slate widget]

@wispy frigate

[orchid frost]

[slate widget]

did you change harvest health?

[orchid frost]

it is 2 and harvest amount 3

[wispy frigate]

¯_(ツ)_/¯ I’m really not an expert on harvesting
