Get argys. They’ll haul far more weight per trip. They have a high base weight plus weight reduction on a lot of materials. Another fast method is to build a raft or motor boat and build a large platform on it, with storage containers. You ride that to the shore closest to the mountains, use your argy and anky to harvest and put it all on the boat and make one trip
oh
And just so you know if you pick an anky up with an argy and fly it to one of its resources it’ll auto harvest until it reaches 50% weight
I can’t thank you enough… finally I can transport my obsidian
I have no anky but now I will think about getting one
Argy, anky, doed, and beaver are standard mid game harvesters. Very useful especially when used in tandem.
Both meat work
At 61 you should be able to starve tame any carno with prime meat easily.
Prime meat give more effect taming and make it quicker
if i got a 330 sword, 160 melee damage, and 200 crafting skill how much you reckon the sword will do
its a bp
You put all point in crafting skill?
Getting 200 crafting skill isn’t all the points
It’s like 20 or something
Then i dont know, if you put all point in crafting skill then i can check with a website but you not so i cant help
Probably around an extra 10-20% I think
200 isn’t gonna be 20%
Over 1000 gives 40ish percent max
I had 200 and that’s about what I got
Maybe I just got lucky
Because it happened multiple times
what did you get
Perhaps I’m mistaken it’s been awhile since I’ve kind wiped but I don’t recall getting more than 40% with over 100 levels in crafting. What’s the damage on your bp?
I had a pistol with like 593% came out with 603%
Wdym like dps or percent
That’s like a 1% crafting bonus lol
20 percent on 593 would have been far higher than 603
Oh
Would have been closer to 750
I haven’t really crafted much ngl
20% bonus would be 711
only if you use mindwipes and put all points into it
I was honestly to lazy to do that
it’s worth the effort imo but I would save up resources to craft a lot of bps at once
Yeah we didn’t do that
Neither crafting or melee are worth putting a single point in for your actual build. People just mindwipe, spend all their points on crafting skill and spend the entire day crafting bps for the best possible gain. Then when the mindwipe cooldown lapses they mindwipe again and go back to their normal build.
Me and my friends have broken stats have it where we can get a wild tame moschops to do 5k damage lol
1600 crafting skill can get you a maximum bonus of 80% but remember it’s random, you might still get 1% xd
Gotta watch out for that
So if we take your 593 pistol at max bonus it’ll come out at 1067 dmg
carchar might be bigger than the giga if what the dossier says is true
doesn’t the dossier say “I don’t know if it can”
Yes, but I was referring to that size comparison drawing
it's unclear weather that dino is a giga or a rex but regardless the outcome is the same
I wouldn’t rely on a drawing to be 100% accurate
for sure, it’ll be close in size to the Giga, we’ll just have to wait and see if it’s bigger or smaller
I mean that's a given but if we were for a moment to take that size comparison as 100% fact
then carchar would be really massive ( I hope not tbh )
yeah, it looks giant next to…whatever that is
It's either a rex ( judging by short arms ) or a giga ( judging by the lengthy head )
It was def oddly drawn possibly to be anonymous
Is there a command for changing the (birth) stats of a dino?
I found "setstatontarget" but this only changes the normal stats.
I would like to change the stats which also are used for breeding. (the one which you can see with the spyglass)
Hi, how can I catch a penguin? that it doesn't occur to me that passive tame is made and if I shoot with tranq it kills him
gotta use tranq darts or use a snow owl and heal in between hits
How do you mean?
which part
a snow owl can be used to heal wild creatures
@errant flax lots of penguins on one of the icebergs
Kills the Penguin
penguins = north = dangerous for nubs
No poly for u then haha
Go to the iceberg
Iceberg is very safe only penguins there
but first I need to get there lol
Get a tame
wait can I use the Pte something to fly over the entire landscape?
Yes
wooooo
Argy or pt
I have a level 40 Tek Parasaur and a level 7 one lol
Ark without flyers is better
Tame a moschop if you can, for better harvest
Argy ftw
Get a wyvern
Honestly I transfered with an argy and some tools to the isles and get a crystal wyvern in a day its pretty easy
I do wish
I didn't see any moschops at all yet lol
Tame a giga bro
Put it in your to do list
It has to land to recharge stamina
No you just go in there naked
ok

Yes make a set, and try to go there on day time to avoid the freezing temp at night
when does arkpoc wipe?
and what's the easiest way to get pelt hair or wool?
Tbh nothing is easy when all u have is just a parasour tho.
lol ok
Maybe try build up even more b4 you trying to venture more deeper
I thought of cutting my own hair with scissors but why tf do I need obsidian for that lol
ok
is Triceratops good?
no
hide and a few points into fortitude is good enough
If you really need that polymer so bad, but can't get fur armor, get an otter 1st
It gives you better insulation
great early game tame
has decent knockback, damage, berry harvesting, harvests thatch well too
ok
My advice is try getting a good argy from here, they are really good for early starters
They can fly, good Stam, great weight, and can kills stuffs
argentavis; https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Argentavis
Argentavis is great for hauling items especially stone and metals
It can also be used for carrying ankys which is also great for metals
How hard is it to tame a GIGA and in which locations does it spawn on the Fjdorur map?
it's not hard, just time consuming
check spawnpoints on the wiki, https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Giganotosaurus
And why does giga have 80,000 HP when it is not tamed, but if you tame it, it has a maximum of 18,000 HP
The Island
balancing
the hp gets to 30k after imprint because.... stats
game balance
having a 80k HP creature that can deal thousands of damage per hit while wearing a 200+ armour saddle is absurdity
use an imprinted giga of your own
they can take out wild gigas with little issues
a strong imprinted giga with a good saddle
also low level gigas are worthless apart from breeding, just glorified big rexes
if you want a giga then ONLY go for the high levels, 135-140+
One question, how can I restore life to a Rex faster?
healing dinos like daeodons or snow owls, or just force feeding meat for half an hour
if you're on singleplayer and are in a safe place and just couldn't be assed then you can also do infinitestats twice
if theres like 20 rexes preparing for a bossfight, i'd just let them heal passively cause im lazy.
And how do I heal dinosaurs with daeodons?
I'm getting deja vu
ride on them and right click to enable healing
passive healing is broken I think
Ok thank you
Not unless they’re heavily bred and mutated. Wild giga will wreck tamed giga otherwise
shush
54 isn't really unmutated melee
and 10 of em can kill ice and forest
they are unmutated
i have a single melee mut baby that i havent raised yet though
I still doubt it
you aren't getting 54 unmutated melee with max level 150
I mean you "can" but I wouldn't suggest people to aim that high
If you put a lot into Life and melee damage breaks
Giga in general is 80,000 life :))
gigas do % based damage
doesn't matter how much health you have, you're gonna drop dead in a minute and a half
I levelled my Rex to 40k HP 3800m and it won
assuming all its bites hit
3800 melee isn't normal melee
I know, I mean even for mutated it's high as shit
Well yeah it has 253 points into melee lol
Almost had 2k melee after imprints alone XD
Why does a rex with 20,000 HP take 17,000 from a fall damage? why is the fall damage so high?
Cuz they’re falling….
what time is word on the street fjordur opening?
However, it's a rex, it shouldn't take so much damage
it's 50 trillion tons, I think it'd take MORE fall damage, not less
max level on the cluster i play is 180
Mass x velocity
well duh, and you aren't getting that on 150
they were a gift
a friend gave me 3 eggs
being R doesn't change points though
nice gift
if I ascend alpha, then I get all hair style of alpha beta and gamma?
might repurpose that line for XP
I think no
i think only the gamma ascention on the island unlocks a new hairstyle
you get tekgrams but not achievements iirc
viking iirc
that's correct
i have gamma on my SP and alpha on the cluster i play
dont have the beta achivement
that's what happens when you min max to the limit
i got alpha hair but not beta and gamma, when my friend did last month he got all 3
rip
i dont think regular gigas spawn on ext
haven't seen a single one
they do if im correect
nmv
they spawn outside the snow domw
they do, just relatively rare
so how long till fjord trans?
hope you find a damn good giga pair
have fun getting saddles for em too
purple OSDs dont gjve giga saddles for some reason
Gen 2 gives loads of giga saddles
are Tusoteuthis Tentacle easy to kill
the tentacles, no. dont think they'd be fighting back after you kill the tuso itself but might be wrong
they're doing no transfers in ascention order iirc
bring a basilo and you should have an easy squid kill
what tame make killing thos thing easy?
or a mane of you're good enough at dodging
i know but really dont wanna try to kill a electro squid 😭😭😭
The trasfer on fjordur is active on ps4?
what does it mean when someone says they were "insided" or "offlined"
Hello someone know when Fjuord is open transfer?
Idk :/
They have not announced a specific time but probably around 1pm est
any1 need a tribe mate?
yeah
psn
when does arkpoc wipe?
Anyone new °to ark, like me?
Is there a starting limit in order for wyvern eggs to spawn? Because all holes appear to be empty
You have already collected some
Or just started near
No
Survival evolved
Why do I leave the dinosaurs on passive and when I enter the server later they are on neutral?
Pixark
Fruit ark
Bark
Maybe someone is coming and changing it?
🤔
🦐
🪓
I play solo
Then it’s just not saving it
Maybe they didn't load
Transfers open on new map yet?
what new map
found another giga, corrupted piece of shit
Fjodur
oh
max structures in range by increasing that does that stop the orang thers to many structures in this area cant connect message
Tfw when my melee mutated giga died of starvation :pain:
It should yes
finally found a normal giga, level 85, should look for better?
What map are you playing on?
I'm asking if you can play on which map I play and tell me the location where you found the giga so I can get one too
extinction and right outside icedome
A
Stop w the patch notes!
Give us some boosted rates again
whats the best way to get black pearls on the island ?
When is the wipe on Arkpocalypse?
if i quit ark now and don't touch it for like 6 months, will my character become unavailable?
It’ll be wherever you leave it if your in official. I left ark for about 2 yrs and my character was still on the server I left it
Can i beat the Megaphiticus Alpha with 4 Shadowmanes (30k health, 80 armor, 1000-1200% meele), 12 rexes ( 25- 41 k health, 25 armor, 800%-1400 % meele ), 1 Ferox ( 10k health, 336 armor, 1400 % meele), 1 Yutyrannus, 4 deinonychus ( 5k health, 25 armor, 600% meele)?
yeah most likely. just dont fall in The Hole
its fjordur
i' ve heard there is no hole but water
i see, then youre fine
Anyone make a metal ocean platform,I’ll trade griffin
anybody upto vc me i got a problem here with my ark
Because she's happy? Lol
trade anyone griffin if they can make me a ocean platform
Message #735196255483068497
probably
I assume the fjordur servers will do down for a update to enable transfers?
Is there any dino that is good for silica pearl harvest on scorched earth?
dont think so
just use a whip
or have a pheonix to poop out pearls
A whip? Is that better than picking them manually?
yes
Ah, as in it's faster to collect or you get more pearls from it?
both iirc
When is arkpoc wipe?
might not collect more, but it AOE harvests
WHY arkpocalypse didnt wipe yet?
is a double door 1 or 2 units wide?
1
ok thx
it’s like 1 min away from the wipe time lol
Ok surry
how long will it take to wiupe
Wipe?
Has it wiped
nah
ive been refreshing since the hour and it hasnt wiped
still says its on day 667 for me
why are you not able to kill an unclaimed dino
pve
it doesnt work on pve?
correct
Arkpoc on Xbox just went down, should be soon
If unclaimed, just claim it, should give option, unless its poop.
i played pve before but i was able to kill my unclaimed dinos but now i couldnt
eh ill just change to pvp
ok thanks
how do you know anyway is there a server status page
nah I’m looking on my Xbox lol
ah
do you just keep hitting refresh?
ye
ps still hasnt even went down ffs
how can it take nearly 10 mins longer than they said to even put it down
let me know if it does
when is x3 starting?
just wiped
sick
n where is arkpoc?
Should come up within the next few minutes
Okay man
Is there some bug where the saddle for Maewing doesn't appear in engrams?
lmao
ur level should reset right?
it should yes
Not really a bug. in the top right of the engram menu theres a bunch of icons. enable them all or disable them all. maewing saddle should appear then
Thank you!
can you transfer things to fjord now?
Currently playing ark with my partner running primal fear and ark eternal, and gear being dropped has its own "quality" like mystical, infermal, primal alpha with a different color.
For example a infernal metal pick with dark red background, or a mystical sickle with dark purple background. How do these rarities differ/affect the tools? what exactly are they?
also is it x3 rn?
negative
why are wildcard not saiyng anything about arkpoc on ps it didnt even wipe
can someone tell me some ways to keep interested and motivated to do a twitch series from island to gen 2?
Why srnt transfers avaiable
I have 2 maewing eggs, does anyone want them
?
If you actually wanted to do it that would be enough motivation
Anyone willing to make a metal ocean platform, I’ll trade griffin for it
PvE, PvP? and Server
You should just give Twitch a go first, play on the Island maybe but without the intention to go through to Gen 2. See how far you get. Don't expect many viewers in the beginning either, you need to build up your viewership with time.
@dark idol pvp official
oof, I haven't played pvp officials in months. If you had the mats and just didnt have the engram I could make it for ya.
I just don’t have engram
@dark idol could you do that?
we can get the materials right now
^^^
yes I can, just dm which server. I'll most likely be naked as I said I left pvp officials several months ago. #N3FORLIFE
Someone told me if you go to the lost island u can unlock the platform? Is that true
li has all engrams
Lost Island, Gen2, and Fjordur. All 3 of those maps have all engrams available to learn.
Haha, no worries...you weren't wasting my time. I'm just sitting here waiting for some announcements or other info from WC so I can let some of my community members know.
Thank you anyways, have good day🫡
You too, stay safe.
I have zero experience with PS4 ARK, however on PC normally you would log out and back in as sometimes it's just a graphical glitch.
No better time for shadowmanes to appear than while trying to transfer
Ps4 is so laggy I couldn’t even defend myself
@tall minnow The number "10" is a censored word now on xbox ark. So I can't update tribe ranking settings appropriately. Not sure why a number would ever be censored, but there are quite a few numbers like this lol.
yeah it does that
Yeah, not great lol. Trying to do tribe ranking settings 😂
Some of that's also on Microsoft themselves 
Ok
Is there an arkpoc dc??
can underwater creatures attack me when I am using a wooden raft to travel on water?
when ever i get close to the carbonemis ts stretches out into a large 2d mess
when does PAX event go live?
Leeds can/will, yes
They'll target the raft itself. And Kapros can pull you off.
do they appear on The Island?
Think they are goig to roll out a mesh fix for fjordur?
How do i enable the primitive+ dlc on non dedicated?
I'm not sure prim+ is technically dlc
How do i play it tho
got to steam library, select ark and scroll down until u see "manage my dlc's"
how do I tame it?
ah nvm I am too low leveled anyway
get near it and it'll say a certain food item it needs, then if you have said item place it in the last slot to feed it
it says I need a rare flower and idk how to get it
It's found in the bushes of the swamps
can someone make a capybara mod for ark?
How do I change S+ settings?
where are the swamps?
it starts at around 25 low and 75 latitude
🧢
R they open yet ?
so i cant transport the tek replicator ingredients at once
can i keep items in the obelisk and comeback ?
yeah, but anyone can take yoru stuff while yoru gone
im on sp so its fine thanks
Are what open

How much time fjordur servers will be down?
10-30 minutes usually
Transfer to fourdor
how I can do element dust?
Trans open?
what the controls to exit a drone in ark

Is the next 3x coming now as well?
Should be
2.5 million points ez
how do i change console variables on epic gameS
Fjordur transfer still not working
#announcements lies
Fr
5 minutes ago we will be redeploying all platforms to enable full server transfers into Fjordur on the Official Network.
🤔
About to get drakes day 1
I just got notified that servers are gonna go down for 15 minutes in 5 minutes
#announcements lied
#announcements was just a friendly suggestion on timing 😄
Give them time, they gotta do x3 which means maintenance and then will probably do fjordur stuff.
what mech attachment should i get
ok so is it possible to download the progress from a server and continue playing it in multiplayer but without the server?
yk what I mean?
because our server runs out in 10 days but we want to keep our progress and keep playing
stryder not working on fjordur
what's the fastest way to break someone's armor
avoid their armor with compound bow
I killed the entire fjordur drake cave and only got a level 100 max
4 level 55s minimum
im about to enter tek cave on the Island, can I bring cryopod tames with me when I hit the tek terminal and throw in the artifacts?
or do they all have to be deployed
I think they gotta be deployed
Okay what exactly am I supposed to do to make a ferox tame take 20 elements instead of 40?
They never do the cute bow emote unless i feed them the element, then I have to feed them again to actually trigger the transformation
So it makes feeding them twice as expensive as it's apparently supposed to be on top of all the other problems
Okay so !
Tonights question is about the minibosses.
I was told there are 6 mini bosses prior to fighting the brood mother and the other 2 main bosses.
My question is this, what is the process of it all?
someone that can quickly help me on 655 gen one?
i was doing alpha mission which was a mistake and the tp's are all fed up so i can't get back, if i transfer out the transfer timer is going to take too long to get my stuff back
very sticky situation
closest i can get it 1,2km before i die bcs of cold
wasnt there a dino that pings when a nearby max lvl dino is nearby? i swear that was something ingame?
Iirc light pets can do that
yo how does the reusable fish basket from lethals reusables work? i tried it and works the same as the normal one, no?
is it possible to change the chalicotherium's projectiles when riding it
i want to fling shit at things
thx fitz
Where are griffens located?
Check the spawn maps
Yo I’m playing single player and I found a leedsichthys and it seems to be stuck because it’s just chillin
What should I do
It’s in shallow water
I was told there are 6 mini bosses prior to fighting the brood mother and the other 2 main bosses.
My question is this, what is the process of it all?
When i googled it there said no mention of these supossed six only that i needed 30 runes per fighting broodmother and the other 2.
There are 3 mini bosses, beyla (giant bee), steinbjorn (ice bear) and hati and skoll (pair of fenrirs)
They each drop their head which is needed to teleport to the respective bosses (beyla to broodmother, steinbjorn to megapithicus, hati and skoll to dragon)
Then fenrisulfer requires all three island boss heads
I like you're game👍
Thank you for the information
lol have a nice day
What's the max level that a dino can reach?
tamed or wild?
In general😅
I mean, I know there is a certain numver of level that a dino can get once you get it (I dont remember how much) and I know there is a "general" limit too
the wild limit depends on your difficulty, i forget the scaling but ik difficulty 1 is lvl 150
as for tamed, i believe you can lvl up 88 times
What about the max level with breeding? Like, you keep levelling up 88 times each baby but at what level they 'generation' will stop to level up?
that would be when you run out of mutations
Yeah but I mean like - Can a dino reach level 999? Or there is a limit before that?
i believe there is a limit
I was mostly asking for that, if someone knew about it😅😅😅
"Just be sure to not use more than 254 level in a single stat for a dino too. If you put 255 or 256 level in one stat it will get deleted anyway on server restart, even unofficial."
apparently on unofficial there is not a cap, just an upgrade cap, so go wild
on official its like 450 max tho and more than that it resets
How can I know if a dino has more than 254 levels on a stat? I mean, if I tame it at level for example 10, how can I know what stats the dino has already 'levelled'?
i think theres a calc for that
yea, on dododex theres a stat calculator that, when you enter a dino's stats, it shows the point investment
450 for regular dinos and 500 for x and genesis dinos
Okie, thanks!
but thats only on official, no?
really?
Yea
damn
Single player creatures could also be leveled 88 times
congrats
W
I couldn’t imagine taming one solo
Probably would need pocket sheep
Looking for some people to play pve ark with
just trap it lol
It still has insane torpor drain
It drains in around 5 minutes
that is true, tamed one a while ago, named em john
his drain was crazy
good thing i have an "alright" crossbow xd
Server crashes while taming a giga or mosa
oof
ive never actually had a mosa, now that i think about it
just had a basilo and for this playthrough tamed a tuso
sounds fun
im sure a trap and my 500% dmg crossbow would pull through
X mosa takes 474 tranq arrows
97 from me xd
wait, do they take torpor from basilisks?
Probably
well then...i might not even use tranqs xd
my basilisk is uh, interesting
It’s not on dododex tho
it isnt for any creature
wait it is, just scroll to the right
Idk
It does
First day in fjordur and I killed the entire rock drake trench for nothing over 100
makes sense
i was tryna tame shadowmanes rn but they are a PAIN since theyre always in a pair
Gen2 tek suit protects from fjordur radiation
He stood 7m and weighed nine-fifty
Kinda broad at the shoulder and narrow at the hip
And everybody knew ya didn't give no lip to big John
(Big John, big John)
20 drakes got reaped
big john truly be like that
How can I know if the stats of a certain dino are good or not?
u mean in the wild?
Yeah like - When I tame for example a certain level, Idk, Para (random level, lets say level X) at level X, how can I know if the stats are good?
so you wanna know if its good point distribution?
Yeah
Compared to the level of course... a level 10 Dino cant have the same stats of a level 200 one lol
for that id recommend using the stat calc on dododex since u cant use mods and look for alot of points in melee/hp not like the same in everything
I’m new idk what to do at all lol
just tame and explore
Is this pay to progress where do I buy everything
what map are you on?
Ugh I don’t know I just created a session
Oh, oke. So if its 'high' or 'really high' it means that the resistance (just to name a random stat) is good, right?
then just run around and tame what seems cool
Depends on the dino and how you plan to use it. Some stats are more/less important depending
i think so, yes
Oke, thanks👍
Last ask tho, I promise ahah.
To start generations with breeding and stuffs, is it better to start with low level tamed dino (like level 10/50) or like high level tamed dino (like 150)?
I just woke up and I’m on an island
I don’t even know how to play
high lvl, since the baby inherits stats
and theres kind of a cap on mutations
Okie, thanks😊🙏
Each tamed dino can level up 88 times right?
And, babies too? Or they can level up of less levels?
One hardcore min-maxing strat involves breeding high-level/stat dinos with low-level/stat dinos and cherry-picking desired stats as you breed. But in some scenarios that's overkill
Algun latino?
Is it required to do the bosses at the maximum difficulty? Or a good 'normal breeding' is fine too?
As I understand it, it's generally wise to breed dinos with good key stats for boss fights, but fully min-maxing might be unnecessary depending
Oh, oke. I will do normal breeding then, the min-maxing seems pretty much difficult to me.
In the worst case I will just keep running bosses at the easiest difficulty...😂
Example: megatheriums in a broodmother fight should probably have high health & melee, but probably don't need those stats to be uber. And a Yuty buffing the megatheriums should (afaik) have good stamina
I didnt knew about the megatherium stuff with the broodmother, I discovered it rn... I though Rexes with a theryzino were Yuti for boss fights lol
I think both strats are valid. Some people prefer megatheriums for the broodmother fight because of their special Insect Killer buff
Yeah I saw they buff they melee and health + on a Reddit votation, like 133 peoples voted them while only 33 peoples voted for rexes
I have never done bosses so, I guess I will ask - How much creatures can you take to the boss fights?
Both
Breed in the bad low level stats for bad stats such as oxygen so it’s lower level with good ststs
Depends, tho. For example when I'm solo or playing on a pve server, I no longer prioritize as much for mixing in low lvl dinos (with low oxygen stat, etc.) as much as I used to. Although it doesn't necessarily hurt.
Breeding on official rates is sad
About the stats - what are good stats for Rex for bosses?
I heard some peoples say 10k health and 350% melee is fine, while some even said 25k health and atleast 450% melee
Dependent on boss and difficulty
Oh, oke. Nearly what level will good breeded Rexes have 450% melee and 25k health?
300-400+ imprints probably
Oke, ty🙏
Well
You want your wild tame to be around 10k health and 350% +melee
Before you start mutating
@neon spoke
Thanks for the tip👍
Gonna need more melee than 450% for alpha difficulties
At least 25k health and 700% melee, preferably with some good saddles to win most boss fights
For dragon youll need around 1k+ melee
Is it possible to reach 25k life and 1k% melee on official?
far above that
yeah, mine have 100k and 3k
At 50k hp and 1.5-2k dmg, you need to be on point with the whistles to avoid fireballs though. Because when it lands + air balls will destroy your team
BUT if you are good with whistling to dodge, those stats are fine
Also as he said, you want good saddles no matter the stats, like 95-110 armor
👍
They're 20th gen rexes, i might have achieved those stats sooner, can't remember
where is arkpocalypse s fjordur?
tek rex is better than normal rex?
Only in that they can appear at higher than wild dino max level
oh i see thanks
So me and my boyfriend built on aberration, and our metal behemoth gate was destroyed by “anti meshing” and we have no idea what that means. Does anyone know what happened??
Yeah why was it destroyed for meshing? We didn’t mesh anything. We just put behemoth gates down to protect our area
umm..
if behemoth gates are passed wall or ground
i played official
i hiding my vault
tomorrow my vault missing..
Ahhh so the gate went through the ground? I mean we play PvE so idk what happened
My guess would be the gate might have been placed on a mesh spot without you guys realizing
Probably, this is our first time actually playing on ab fully. So we had no idea what that meant. I hear it happens a lot on ab
any clue why I cant go into an unconcious creature's inventory to tame it?
Which creature?
ah
yea I found out in the dododex, damn
guess I'll kill it then
thx for the heads up
What would you guys say is the best map for new players other than the island? I'm starting a world with my friends and I've only played the island so kinda wanting to try out different maps while still giving them good first impressions.
Crystal isles and Lost Island.
The Island and Rag are the most "vanilla" I believe, but Valguero, Lost Island, and CI have a similar vanilla quality. Most other maps have special features that might be harder on newer players (ymmv)
I was thinking lost island based on my research so thats probably what we'll do, thanks for the advice!
crystal isles isn't that great so go for lost
That's sorta getting into aesthetics and is less about challenging features for newer players, but yeah
I liked Lost Island better as well
but still, you want a great experience everytime, all the time
aesthetic is important no less
imagine starting in fjordur and seeing a TEK rex
cool yet scary at the same time
will ark completely stop receiving updates once ark 2 is out?
My guess is it'll at least continue to be up and running for a while, and also get patched from time to time. As to new content from WC, no idea
Probably
I mean, for one thing it's an established & successful revenue stream and will continue to have a lot of players even after ARK 2 comes out
All that’s officially been announced is that this is the last year for event support for Ark 1.
This is all I need to enter on the server args correct, both of these.
-UseDynamicConfig ?customdynamicconfigurl="<ark.myserver.com/config.txt>"
what
anyone wanna play ark fjordur cluster on a 2x harvest 2.5x tame and 5x breed? just starting now dm me if you are 18+ and tryna just play ark and have a good time
So, im on a modded server that has something called "rare sitings".
Basically OP "unique" coloured variables usually over the tame level cap.
what was my first tame while this is active you may ask?
A FEMALE RAINBOW DODO !
My army has it's Queen. 😂
#735196255483068497 is where you wish to be
you're obliged to tame it now
it'd be a crime to not tame the rainbow dodo
In a heartbeat i did !!!
She's proudly sat with her army. I am a dodo collector. My power is unmatched !
now you are unstoppable
go, conquer the ark
I won't just stop at the ark THE WORLD is ripe for the taking muwhahaha
I love Rare Sightings
Can i also just say that Fjordur main map is evil.
I spent hours trying to find a spino i went to all the locations ive previously seen with spinos and they were all under lv50. Like bro i want to kill beyla not give her target practive -inhale-
Did you check the midgard ab cave as well?
Oh i dont do caves, arenos
Smallish cave, no arenos iirc
The tribesleader wants to kill beyla to do Broodmother
is areno the spider?
Ye
you don't do spiders but will do broodmother?
Yeah, I went with the custom spelling out of laziness 🙂
No
Oh wow
Im forced to do broodmother content reasons
lol
Popped triplet monkeys from both my females
Doesnt mean i want too XD
Anyway the cave I mentioned has ravagers, roll rats, megalosauruses, purlovas, spinos, a crab, and light pets
Im gonna take all the wyverns with me and if tribesleader got a problem with it well they can go suck a narcoberry 😂
has carnos as well :P
Ah right
seekers too
Crabbo stabbo goes nowhere near me
I will not be pulled into a "its either you or me" battle
most of the time its not there
Hmm for me it is
I've seen more alpha carnos then crabs 😂
Or i can send forth the tribesleader who doesnt mind catering to my fears as i do water stuff (they got thalassathobia)
which is to say I've seen 1 :P
The cave is pretty easy as caves go
I like ravager dinos tho theyre the dog like ones ye ?
Yeah
I have a collevtion of cats and dogs on the go
shadowmanes?
Not yet theyre on my to do list as we arent very far into gaming maybe 3 days in?
Or 4
smh, they are clearly a day 1 tame
Well i dont know im newb so
😂 would be pretty hard to do day 1 unless you note run
?
We got an andrewsaur yesterday
Hah..hahaha
"got" as in dropped in unannounced
No no got as in kidnapped trapped and absolutely pestered into submission
the best way
The best way 😂
Whats the max level that a wyvern can reach?
if you are on official difficulty 190
Higher than dino max level (by a %)
-hides my wyverns levels-
Yeah, on offivial - Also, 190 isnt the max egg's level?
My tribeleader named a pteradon Swoop Dog.
It still makes me giggle. 😂
190 is the max level for eggs. wyverns are 8 steps higher than normal creatures (40 levels on officials)
heh, I used rapper names for pteras once. forgot about that
Yeah, I know 190 is the max level for eggs... I was asking more for a fully grown wyvern😅😅😅
Cause someone said they can reach 255 max but I always saw them nearly 300 and even more...
you can mutate for a higher level, but unless you are talking crystal or void wyrm. they are only egg tames so 190
I called my hyeadon (heck spelling)
Heidi. I was gonna call it Hide and get another called jeckle but female so improvised.
they still have the tame levels which is +88 levels
Wdym as mutated for a higher level? Crystal or void wiverns can breed?
all wyverns can breed
all wyverns can breed now
been 2 years or something I think :P
almost 2 years? was it 2020 
Oh - Seems like Im still to the old times🤣
Sorry to hyjack this but uh Can you even get crystal wyverns on fjordur?
'When I used to play' wyverns werent ablento breed lmao
no. they are only on crystal
just like voidwyrms are only on gen2
So only ice fire poison
and lightining
I pressed send to quick
anyone wanna play ark fjordur cluster on a 2x harvest 2.5x tame and 5x breed? just starting now dm me if you are 18+ and tryna just play ark and have a good time
Does wyverns still only eat milk while they're growing? Or they became carnivores from the birth now?
Milk
i aint waiting 6 hours to type again LMAO
Dang! 2 years and they only learnt to breed...
thats crazy
When like adolesont they can live without it
its to promote DMing people and not have people chat in the channel
Just prior that they need the milks
bro half of the messages in that chat are each 30 lines each your message gets lost in 4 min @slate widget
My wyverns are gonna grow up fully spoiled!🤣
Not half spoiled and half carnivores
XDD
and it'd be chaos with a lower cooldown 🤷
not really lmao 6 hours is unreal maybe 20 min?
max?
dont really matter if its chaos if you can actually get ur msg seen and get a teammate
Alduin - poison
Electra - lightening
Draconys (again spelling, GOF reference) - fire
The ice baby havent been named as yet.
I also have a personal pet fire dragon called Magnus.
Why are ice wyvern rarer than poison/fire/light wyverns tho?
No idea i only get 1 egg per trip
they are only on free maps. they aren't really rarer tho. just bad :P
And usually like under 100
on Rag (when they were added) they were extremely rare and didn't even have a trench. Val they got the trench. Lost and fjordur both have individual trenches for them.
Oh, oke - Im just seeing old videos with peoples saying they re rare then😅
they were on Rag. they spawned randomly in the ice biome.
Oh, yeah, Im seeing vids on the Rag map lol
but go to any of the other maps with them and they are normal :P
hello any1 know why some official servers do not appear?
Can i reccomend btw that you use a bat to do egg runs at night a high leveled and trained bat its op if you turn invisible and of course the turn speed when leveled correctly is just YEET and SKEET. Without feeling the heat.
just use a fjordhawk on fjordur 
How about just building a ptera's whole army?
Hmm, just tried to start a non-dedicated session and it won't launch. Clicking accept just takes me back to the hosting screen
I cant find them 😭
they spawn everywhere tho 
A single desmodes is less effort than leveling an entire army quicker too wothout deaths.
I'll find one soon enough im sure.
I find all kinds of weird stuff like today i saw a "bigfoot"
scary
I play om ragnarok -_-
Oh :0
should try other maps. rag is outdated
I only play fjord because its new,its free, and only a small bunch of choice dinos are missing from it some of which are spooder-like which ngl not mad about
I know, but arent other maps not-free? I mean, Rag has a but of everything for a old-player like me🤣
Oh, its fjord free?
I wouldnt own it if it wasnt XD
the center, Rag, Val, Crystal, Lost island, and fjordur are all free (released order :P)
I played some island but saw how much nicer fjord looked and was like TAKE ME TO IT
I love the little abandoned villages and castles
Eww, Idk about fjordur it seems too much complicated...
My fav map has always been ragnarok tho lol
It's not really too hard when you understand the runes.
I may move to it tho, I just have to start a little on ragnarok lol
Are all the PvE servers already taken on Fjordur? Or its pretty 'free' space?
Can someone help me with spawning a level 150 wild reaper queen
Runes? For what?
I’m on aberration but the command do not work
Runes are basically little red fires you collect as permission slips essentially to fight the MINI bosses (so not broodmother) (( Beyla is example))
They also give bonus to i think exp?
They are the explorer notes of fjord
That seems interesting
1 3 is required for a miniboss fight.
Those are different times
Runes*
Wdym?
runes are explorer notes. runestones are for the bosses (gotten from alphas :P)
Do you play on a server or SP?
What pumpkin said
I dont know what that means xd
Are all the servers taken? Or are there free spots?
Me?
Ye
The runes that you collect that are like little red fires are just reskinned explorer notes. To fight the mini bosses you have to kill alphas and collect an actual item called runestones
you gotta check lol. I'd imagine so :P you are also the only person that is on playstation here right now
I just asked if you play fjordur on official servers or like if you play it single player, like alone
Neither
I play a private server
Can someone help me with spawning a level 150 wild reaper queen
I think Im gonna start back a little on ragnarok, then make a 2nd account and explore some fjordur servers
I have a tribe but its not official im on a modded.
You dont need to, just upload yourself to an obolisk after you completed rag
Oh, oke. I dont like playing on unofficial/modded but I do respect your preferences
Yeah I know, I just said the 2nd account cause I wont want to finish on a already filled server😅😅😅
fair enough lol
Try admincheat summon xenomorph_character_bp_female_c
I’m on single player
It won’t summon a specific level but the command for specific levels didn’t work last time
Cheat summon
My tribesleaders said "if we dont have flyer tame state increase mod i wont play ark". I didnt really care it seemed harmless to me so i vibed with it.
Try
summon "xenomorph_character_bp_female_c"150
Whats flyer tame staate increase mod?😂
Worked
A mod that allows you to increase the stats of a flyer or some tecy nonesence that idk
Oh, oke
if you are talking about speed. just use the ingame setting not a mod
mods can cause issues.
Not just speed, everything
I guess not specifically for flyers :P
Blowing my feck in mind here
Well its the tribeleaders server ergo their choice and i dont really mind or care im just happy to play ark and have a collection of anything i want at my fingertips
6 wolves
8 dodo's
4 wyverns
2 saber cats
Soon to be 3 hyeadons
4 agentavis
We have a maewing !
I use a controller so its kinda hard for me to control BUT still an awesome creature
I didn't have much issues controlling on controller till I got drift 
I had to switch to k&m, it got really bad.
I kidnapped one of the otters in a kangaroo and got stuck on the second floor of our house with her while being a rider.
Tribe leader walks in and all i could think was.
"This isnt what it looks like"
lol
Whats them magma lizzard things that live under the fire wyvern area called.... massive wreck it ralph energy when it comes to behmoth gates?
magmasaur creative name right?
Their eggs can be fun to steal on some maps (discovered yesterday that they're a bit too easy on Olympus tho)
On fjord theyre kinda annoying but the desmodeus took care of it.
Been thinking of trying on a Thyla, lol
Beat gen 1 boss and craft in a tek rep
Wait so it shouldnt even be fjord 🤣🤣
Well what i can confirm is if you dont have a tame pen dont worry, the skiff can hold the dino up (obviously) and you can trank it from below the skiff looking upwards.
More of a 2 man job but if you have a flyer can be a solo act.
That’s only a 2 man job without a skiff. The skiff will hold the Dino even when it’s not being operated
Yeah but its easier if you have a "basewife" and a hunter. One who gathers mats and almost always at base (ready to trank) and the hunter who catches everything brings it back and ensures from the sky no enemy ground or otherwise tries to pester the tranker or prey
Personally i see myself as a hunter i'm always off catching new random stuff -cough- 8 dodos -cough-
I see. I’ve always just carted them back to base where it’s nice and safe the mats are kept in the skiff
Yeah but fuels a thing then if its something like a giga and if you dont have a tame pen like in my original post example then you wouldnt exactly want to drop the thing in or near base 🤣
Plus it can travel in the weird bubble to the other realms of fjordur so what if you werent able to go to base at all skiff tranking is a useful tip.
Anyways this Ark users gonna go offline its already 6.40am w/o sleep so imma rest because tomorrows adventures sees me hatching more wyverns, breeding more wolves and continuing the quest to plunder the world with a dodo army🤣🤣🤣
Gn 👋
Playing ark with "the lion sleeps tonight" in background mustabin an experience
iin the jungle THE MIGHTY jungle the lion sleeps tonight...

Hey guys how are the transfers? Not to the new map, waiting a week to go there. But to servers like crystal isles, valguero etc?
Hello, what abilities does Gacha have and does it do a lot of damage? that I would like to tame him but they are all level 100 and I wouldn't go in without knowing what I'm doing, and they attack in groups? that is, if they all come at me?
gachas eat anything and turn them into crystals which give resources
they aren't really meant to be a damaging tame
also check the wiki, https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Gacha, they're a passive tame that you tame by dropping items for them to pick up and eat
best thing would be greenhouse structures, though plant Y traps do too
if you don't care about TE then you can feed stone structures as well
Hi all, so the legacy server I play on didn’t come back online after the patch yesterday and it’s still not online today. I’ve looked on BattleMetrics and under status, it says ‘invalid’. Anyone know what this means?
I’m starting to feel like I’ve lost everything in-game and I’m going to have to start over…
The server in question is LEGACY-The-EU-PVE-OfficialServer424 (on Nitrado) - (v349.22)

Guys how do yall move hotbar in a more comfortable way? Or yall also type the numbers on keyboard?
Isn't there a function just like in minecraft for quickly moving hotbar items
If you want to add something to your hot bar from your inventory, you can double click it
Anyone have a ark trading discord inv?
Trading for in-game items
hi can i check
why is there a barrier which i can't cross in fjourdr
its on the map but theres like a barrier blocking it can't seem to go pass it
like a forcefield barrier
No i mean when moving around and stuff, on minecraft you'd just use mouse scroll wheel and on ark? Do you actually just use numbers?
for selecting hotbar slots? just numbers afaik
Either someone set up a tek force field or you’re running into the world border
Oh right, yeah it’s just numbers
I see
what are the buttons to change camera angle?
does anyone know how to change apepic games console variables they changed it
k mode for pc
Anyone know the spawn location for fjordurhawk ?
Are 61 tranq arrows enough to knock down a level 150 yutyrannus?
big doubt, check dododex
Do you have a tek bow or an extremely powerful crossbow?
dark blue crossbow
im kinda new to survival stuff tho
So i dont know what are rarities and other stuff like that
the more damage u have on the xbow, the more torp it provides per shot
What’s the damage percent on the crossbow?
135.7%
73 arrows with a maximum of 7 seconds in between hits. Always bring extra though.
ok thanks for the info
headshots count for more
any for dps, spino seem to be the dino off choice
are there any maps less then thirty gigs (that are good)
167% shotgun or a primitive pump shotgun?
pump
is crystal isles a good map
not the best not the worst
fjordur rag lost island are my fav
and gen 2
crystal isles have the crystal wyvern though
free early game wyvern
definitely the worst
Is a longneck rifle, crossbow or bow better for taming a trike?
crossbow and longneck works, bow is cost inefficient if you have a crossbow.
crossbow is cheaper than longneck by a km and a half but longnecks do it faster
so longnecks knock dinos down faster?
yeah.
alright i already have one so ill use that
UNLESS you have a good crossbow
nah its just a normal one
for example, i have a 500% dmg crossbow but only 213% longneck, so i just use crossbow since its faster
oh alright then lol, yea longneck faster
how do u even get good weapons and stuff? sorry im kinda new lol
Caves
oh ok
drops
Sometimea good blueprints can be found in the loot crates in some hard caves
Gen2 have some good blueprints occasionally in its beacons
by rarity loot crates are red>gold>purple>blue>green>white, a gold ring around a drop means it has more stuff
yo does anyone here use the lethals reusables mod?
exception to that are flying animals
its more efficient to use a crossbow with tranq arrows vs the likes of argies and quetzels than it is to use a longneck with tranq darts
I wouldn't use a crossbow against a pteranodon though, simply because they don't have much health and a crossbow might kill it
really?
but crossbows deal bonus damage vs flyers
i did not know that
Flyers take 3x damage from projectiles, this includes crossbows, bows, firearms and turrets.
That’s not true
in your opinion, sure
wouldnt that mean they take the same dmg from longneck and crossbow?
You can check with Dododex, a 100% rifle with darts will use less darts than a 100% crossbow will use arrows. Not sure where he’s getting that from.
yea i checked, very strange misinformation ig
So first of all - don't speak about me in third person when I'm right here
I wasn’t speaking to you at all
Second of all - the quality of the rifle vs crossbow can change this
That's too bad, because I'm speaking to you
so youre saying a higher dmg crossbow will deal more torpor? and outdo a lower dmg longneck? or of the same damage?
A crossbow will knock a flying animal out faster than a longneck will
You can feel free to test this for yourself - but again you need to also take into account the quality
A mastercraft longneck vs a primitive crossbow is an obvious mismatch
but we're talking of the same quality
Sure
its obvious the quality matters alot, and youre saying a crossbow of the same dmg as a longneck will knock a flyer out faster?
so if i have a 200% dmg longneck and crossbow, the crossbow will knock it out faster?
Quality is irrelevant all that matters is damage percent. It’ll take a cross bow of 150% to match a rifle with darts at 100%
thats why im so confused
Will never be more irrelevant than you
are you 10? cuz you're spreading misinformation and acting immature lmao
Another easy way to do the math for yourself is to take the fire rate and multiply it by the torpor to find the torpor per second or "tps" crossbow is .383x157=60.131 tps Longneck is .220x222=48.62 tps```
Just because it goes against your preconceived ideas and underdeveloped understanding of the game does not make it misinformation
It makes it education
and where does this come into play?
dont longnecks do more damage too? that being said, crossbows are still bette
longneck js roughly 225 torpor and 4.5 reload time and crossbow is 150 torpor and 2.6 reload time
So the actual quality doesn’t mean much you can find apprentice quality with higher damage percents than journeyman quality of the same item. It’s all math based on the weapons base damage. The rifle has a higher base than a crossbow, so any rifle with the same damage percent as any crossbow will be better.
idk man xD go check
yea ik im just real confused here
crossbow torpor stacks, meaning if a giga hypothetically needs 300 tranq arrows or 180 darts, you could unload those 300 arrows faster BUT need to afk for a while to let it all kick in. on the other hand, you'd need to sit there to unload all 180 darts
Just use Dododex to determine amount needed. But keep in mind darts cost a good bit more than arrows to make
I'm tired of arguing with you air heads
Even when presented with facts and mathematics, you still go back to the same dead horse and beat it because your brains are too smooth to accept new information
I'm posting this for the second and last time, maybe repeat reading will get it through your dense skulls
"The crossbow shoots 74% faster (.383rps for crossbow and .220rps for long neck) almost twice as fast so {74% of 157 is 116} 157+116= 273 torpor VS the long necks 221 torpor giving it a vast lead, not to mention it uses WAY less resources. The use of the tranq rifle is INTENDED for catching low hp dinosaurs that the crossbow would otherwise kill with its high damage.
Another easy way to do the math for yourself is to take the fire rate and multiply it by the torpor to find the torpor per second or "tps" crossbow is .383x157=60.131 tps Longneck is .220x222=48.62 tps"
that's correct
i mean i always carry around 100+ arrows since that can knock out anything with my 500% dmg crossy but i was just confusion
