[reef wren]

@weary marsh

[weary marsh]

Yeah

We just started

[reef wren]

Imma message ya I have a few wyverns u can have

And probably a bunch more crap lol

[weary marsh]

I cant we are in non dedicated

We aren’t good at pvp

[frigid violet]

We play non-dedi too. Be glad you're on the island, you don't have that fun water bug we have on every other map.

[weary marsh]

What is it

[vernal crag]

anyone know why when I start new on a map (eg the island) I don’t have a map in game?

[weary marsh]

What’s the water bug

[frigid violet]

If you play non-dedi, every time you step foot into water thats deep enough to swim, your movement is as if you had typed fly in console with admin privileges. But it only applies while in water, so what actually happens is you accelerate to 800mph+ until you hit a rock / land under water, then you richochet out of water and fly across the entire map. I'm being literal, not hyperbolic right now.

[weary marsh]

whatttt

they should patch that

What about that big eel boss

Can you do if

[frigid violet]

yeah it means the water is 100% uninteresting lol, there's nothing to keep up with the movement while its like this 😛

[weary marsh]

Hope ark 2 is less glitchy

[frigid violet]

Should be, they have all the experience from ark 1

[weary marsh]

Yeah

I really hope they change the 3rd person only and souls type combat for it

[reef wren]

I got a Xbox series x yesterday and get no more lag and ping is only 30-40 now on gen 2 lol

[weary marsh]

i got a series s 2 days ago

I immediately tried genesis 1

[reef wren]

Use to be 58-65

[weary marsh]

Big difference

[reef wren]

Yes alot

[frigid violet]

I'd show the glitch if links were allowed, it really is quite hilarious while on a deino as they take 0 fall damage

[weary marsh]

If you go into like water caves or ravines do you just break your legs

[frigid violet]

You don't take fall damage under water, but if you shoot out from the water then yes, you would.

[regal yarrow]

I have never heard of that glitch before

[weary marsh]

Wow

[frigid violet]

Huh, I thought this was common for non-dedicated maps that are not The Island?

I can show y'all right now if you're curious

[weary marsh]

what do those stars mean

[regal yarrow]

No, I have been playing ark for years and have never come across that

[weary marsh]

Oh

Mod

Ok

[timid dew]

🤯

[weary marsh]

We finally got a good pt

[frigid violet]

@weary marsh @regal yarrow I can send you a link of the bug in dm, got a 6s clip recorded here now if you're curious

[weary marsh]

Please do

I bet it’s funny

[regal yarrow]

If it is a replicatable bug you can make a #bug-reports

[pliant locust]

Yea I’ve heard of this before, non - dedicated servers (and SP) are pretty broken lmao

[frigid violet]

yea I can't find a way to not do it sadly, and was told this is just the state of non-dedicated gameplay

[pliant locust]

yep, it’s been there for a long time 🙂
Ark SP stuff isnt as broken as their second title (Atlas) but still very very broken

[ruby tendon]

I just started my island map and I just started taming a male triceratops level 8 wish me luck on this journey

[frigid violet]

So do you know if they designed this game around the expectation people would play online?

[marsh verge]

Evo event?

[pliant locust]

#announcements

[sweet current]

dont think they going to do an evo when they doing 3x for the event in 5 days

[marsh verge]

You would be surprised

[sweet current]

i would be and it would be nice lol

[frigid violet]

how does an event work? I play SP so I have a long-term base. I understand online play you move like nomads from server to server?

How can a mutated dino (+1) be exactly the same level and stats as its unmutated parents?

[bold ether]

Or... Some people even build a base and return

[frigid violet]

Wont your stuff get stolen all the time?

[bold ether]

Nope, your thinking PvP

[frigid violet]

Oh. So people generally behave in pve?

[bold ether]

Depends on the people I spose, I have come across a few stupid groups but most are fine. PvP quite different tho lol

[bold ether]

In pve, u can't directly injure other players or their tames or builds

[frigid violet]

Yea I heard people do degenerate stuff like kite rexes to other players bases and stuff

[coarse sun]

From what it sounds like, going only off what I've read you play pve if you aren't that active, and if you have time to burn you play pvp

[frigid violet]

That sounds weird. Some people play a lot and dont do pvp in other games

[coarse sun]

Ark is different though, because of the grind

And the fact someone could attack you literally whenever

[frigid violet]

Whys that? Other games have grinds too 😛

[coarse sun]

Like what

[bold ether]

Nah I wouldn't say that. Those interested in the game will play pve. PvP is to play against people

[coarse sun]

What other games that are open world survival have anywhere near the grind of ark

[bold ether]

Rust, 7 days

[frigid violet]

I didn't specify open survival. I'm just questioning why you think high playtime == enjoys pvp

[coarse sun]

Because those are the people most commited to the game, most PVE players are just "hehe funny dinosaur i make big house" whereas PVP focuses on more of the intricate aspects and mechanics imo

[coarse sun]

Also rust grind is nowhere near that of ARK, speaking from plenty of experience

[bold ether]

🤣🤣🤣🤣 your own not others tho right

[coarse sun]

Thats just the only possible reason I can come up with as to why people prefer PVE

[torn pier]

Id rather not lose everything I spent hours on

Thats the thing with ark pvp: its winner takes all

[coarse sun]

Yeah thats why I said people with not as much time play PVE instead of PVP

[frigid violet]

You know you're generalising people based on the tiny anecdote that is your own experiences, right?

[torn pier]

I have over 5k hours and I still do only pve

[bold ether]

I'd rather learn to play the game first then flex on a 13 yo 😂, u clearly haven't seen some of the breeders

[coarse sun]

?

[torn pier]

Its fun to help people in pve. Everyons friendly and helps each other

each server is like a small town

whereas pvp some guy with a max mutated giga goes out of their way to kill some guy in a 1x1 thatch box

[coarse sun]

idk I guess I just cant understand the appeal, like I feel it would get boring within a day because you have no goal to work towards

[frigid violet]

I've heard pve'ers also kiting gigas / rexes to newb bases so I don't think either side is entirely innocent

[torn pier]

Whats the goal in pvp?

[frigid violet]

Sure you do, plenty of goals, just none that resonate with you. I could do the same take for pvp - why bother playing, you're essentially just mashing keys against other dudes dinos?

[coarse sun]

Raid people, control a server, PVP, thats why you farm for resources and dinos

in PVE youre doing all the farming with none of the fun

[frigid violet]

According to you. Personally, all the things you mentioned sound dull af.

[bold ether]

The point I was trying to make was the main aim of PvP... Any PvP is to kill players. PvE u must learn the game and beat that. PvP to me is just hiding in a cave for hours defending and fighting meshers

[torn pier]

Pve is pretty much minecraft once you get settled

[coarse sun]

Well now it is, I pretty much quit official 2 years ago before it got really bad

[torn pier]

Sure the first few nights are hell, but once you get a house going and some friends, its like a vacation

[bold ether]

That's the point, we are talking about now. Not 2 years ago

[coarse sun]

Oh well I quit the game now, not coming back until ARK 2

Unofficial dies too fast, offical is plagued by cheaters, and overwatch 2 came out

[bold ether]

🤣

[coarse sun]

But I still have 5.5k hours so my opinion is def valid

[torn pier]

It seems like you just dont like people having fun

[bold ether]

The game moved on since u stopped so I disagree

[coarse sun]

???

I quit playing a month after fjordur came out, tried smalls and got speedhacked on

Maybe for a carefree experience with friends PVE is more fun

[torn pier]

So youve been against pve this entire time but youve only done it solo?

[coarse sun]

But imo it cant compete with the satisfaction of finally wiping that annoying af tribe, or successfully defending your base for 8 hours

[bold ether]

Honestly, most of my tribe is ex pvp

[coarse sun]

Honestly, PVE can probably be more fun

[bold ether]

They just got sick of the defending and wanted to finish the game before moving on

[torn pier]

I agree, pvp is fun when its game where you can spend 10+ hours doing something without losing it within minutes

[coarse sun]

But if the devs actually implemented anticheat and it didnt take 2 months to get a ticket answered PVP would win 10 times out of 10 in my books

Like we had a really solid start going on Fjordur, underwater tek tier in a few days, messing with the alpha without them knowing where we lived and it was great

Then some chinese aimbotter speed hackers ESPed our base and it was gone within 30 seconds

[bold ether]

Dunno, hawk had a massive impact

[coarse sun]

Thats why I put all of my 150 levels into melee

and clubbed mfs out. so they couldnt use it

[bold ether]

If u could shoot them off it wouldn't b so bad

[coarse sun]

and then if they ate poly id just use a fabi

[pliant locust]

Idk I play video games for fun, especially these days I can’t be bothered to be forced to spend basically multiple hours per day just grinding and stuff only to be able to enjoy the pvp aspect of the game.
Once you get a job and family and can’t 5h+ daily no life Ark, official pvp seems very bad of an option ^^

[coarse sun]

Oh I completely agree, the only reason I was able to go so hard was because it was the summer

but I have a job, and school to keep up with now

[bold ether]

Yea but if u got the time, van be alot of fun

[coarse sun]

I have free time but just not enough for ARK anymore

[bold ether]

Lol agreed

[coarse sun]

I honestly think most people would agree that PVP would be more fun than PVE if A. They had a good team B. Werent going against people who are always end game with cryo gigas. C. had the time D. no cheaters

Unfortunately none of that is possible anymore

[torn pier]

is it possible to unclaim a normally passive animal (ie. dodos) and make it neutral?

[frigid violet]

But killing players is not really that fun for everyone 😛 that's the point im trying to make haha

[torn pier]

theres also the large gap between stone and metal

[coarse sun]

Not really

[torn pier]

You spend one half of the game with stone tools, and then the rest with metal

[coarse sun]

if I have the levels I can get a metal 2x2 with 4 heavies and an indy forge in like 8 hours probably, and thats a long estimate

Also I think DLCs ruined PVP alot

[torn pier]

Im saying that theres not a lot of variety

[coarse sun]

Everything after Extinction and including it was just broken

[bold ether]

U know in pve, u can't even bite the drops or ele nodes 😂 it's crazy ez

On ext

[pliant locust]

I agree on that, I very much dislike how they turned ark into a makeshift Star Wars game and now it’s only about robots and 100% fantasy creature

[modest wharf]

How long will 500 flowers last in a bee hive?

[umbral dust]

survive the ark beta is not possible without gear

[wispy frigate]

Well tbf both li and fjordur only added irl creatures (except for fenrir)

And I like the gradual progression from dinosaur to fantasy

[pliant locust]

Yep the free DLCs are fine, but I don’t like how they developed the lore into this whole plot hole lore thingy until we somehow ended up at gen2, but i guess this really comes down to personal preference and what people enjoy ingame / in general 🙂

[wispy frigate]

Wdym by ‘plot hole lore thingy’?

Obviously its left open to the player how we got to gen1 but I think the rest is pretty clear

[pliant locust]

Millions of unanswered questions ingame, just some facts and things thrown at people.
I enjoy thorough fantasy lore a lot, but it has to be a comprehensive world, that makes somewhat sense.
Probably a bit much to ask from a video game to create in-depth lore, but especially genesis feels so “lore centered” I don’t really enjoy the whole thing (besides how broken genesis two is and upended any sort of progression etc)

[wispy frigate]

I agree about gen2 yeah

I just don’t think theres that many unanswered questions or that much of a plot hole

[pliant locust]

I guess it depends on how deep you go, but I always wonder like “oh why is it this way and not some other way” and so on, but again I guess it would be unfair to ask like Tolkien deep lore from a rather quickly thrown together video game

[wispy frigate]

Fair enough

[rugged ledge]

When did ark poc wipe

Or how long it wipes again

For ps4 btw

[unborn wagon]

Arkpoc wiped last weekend

It wipes every 30 days

[outer bough]

does anyone know if theres a command to locate lost dinos
?

[night whale]

Destroywilddinos

Then do a locate command for your dinosaur

So the species, then to to it

[tough yarrow]

There is not a location command for lost dinos. There are vanilla transponder nodes, though you have to use them before losing your dino.

[timid dew]

i found a level 94 argy but some dino decided to attack it and remove 50% of its effectiveness

😔

[tight merlin]

let it wake up and knock it out again

50 is WAYYYY to low

thats just me though i prefer if all my tames are above 90% taming effectiveness

[timid dew]

i struggled knocking it out as it flew away and i dont have a trap prepared

[tight merlin]

did it already wake up?

[timid dew]

and i got lucky or you can say unlucky it got knocked out on an only rock in the water

[tight merlin]

make a trap

[timid dew]

no taming its 80%

[timid dew]

what if i never find it again

[tight merlin]

build over it and when it wake up tranq it

use the materials in the area

wood works fine if you knock it out fast enough

[timid dew]

last time i tried building a trap it didnt work

[tight merlin]

use gates

[timid dew]

the huge stone walls things were patterning the wrong way

[timid dew]

thats what i did but it didnt let me to put them like without connecting them

115 level argy isnt bad as i have a level 48

[tight merlin]

they dont need to be touchin

space em out a bit so you can shoot inside

[timid dew]

it wouldn’t let me not

[tight merlin]

while at the same time it cant escape

[timid dew]

thats what i wanted but it wouldn’t let me

[tight merlin]

can you send me a screenshot?

[timid dew]

it was making a pattern of its own

[timid dew]

it was like a week ago but i can try to do it again

[tight merlin]

of the gate placement not workin?

[tight merlin]

ight

[timid dew]

yea

i already tamed it

thanks

i now have like 5 of them

[tight merlin]

dangit

alr

next time watch an ark trap tutorial for the specific creature

[timid dew]

i did but i told you what happened

do u think its a good idea for me to tame a griffin now

@tight merlin i also know how to build the trap

are they hard to find

[tight merlin]

griffins?

what map r u on rn?

[timid dew]

ragnarok

[tight merlin]

they are a bit uncommon

depending on your spawn rates

[timid dew]

wait are griffins only in ragnarok

[tight merlin]

no i think they are also in crystal isles

and a few more

[hidden river]

When do yall think we are gonna get Carcha news?

[median surge]

Fuc.. still no evo event... When will server rates increase

[cunning kernel]

@viral shore just an idea from the land of tweets, could the rates not be started today then the rest of the spooky goodies from the 19th as planned? 🥺🙏

[slate widget]

wednesday the 19th for fear evolved 6

[unique zenith]

🤔 okay how do i upload cryopods to transfer?

and can i come back to fjordur

[deep umbra]

what on earth is this LDL servers, what a terrible idea

[unique zenith]

uploads my island character because its expendable
immediately crashes

[deep umbra]

they should be releasing like 1 map every month on a closed cluter, for one month till it opens

so new people could fight for a good base spot and not have to fight a tribe thats lived there for 2 years

not whatever these already dead LDL servers are

^ smalltribes only idea

also my base got spoofed and we lost everyhing and devs do nothing but what else is new @viral shore @tall minnow @heavy cedar

[queen light]

anyone know where i can get alot of fungal wood on crystal isles, and dont say "top right of the map" i already checked there and i found absolutly none

[dusty nymph]

anyone know when the next event is

[magic salmon]

Case #29005 @tawdry wasp has been muted for 1 hour.
Reason: Posting a unauthorised Discord invite link

[brisk sand]

@heavy cedar @viral shore LDL servers not working on Xbox official 1x 6man is fine tho

[oak prairie]

yeah idk what these ldl servers are really

they already have a max pop of like 10

[regal yarrow]

I mean they just barely released didnt they>

[deep umbra]

yeah so they would be full

like all small tribe server releases, full to the brim

and all the smalltribes LDL servers EU, big punch in the face for OC players

[pastel osprey]

Hello, how do you enable tek railgun on private servers? Friend of mine is trying to use one and it's not working.

[slate widget]

should be enabled by default as the command line is -DisableRailgunPVP

[pastel osprey]

Alright, will check it out.

Yeah, I literally just watched her put element into a railgun and nothing happened.

[tardy leaf]

Is there a trib I can join

[faint cairn]

Hi! I have a question. I am playing on PS4 on Fjordur. I tamed an R-snow Owl but cant find any saddle. I am playing unofficial PVE. I made a snow owl saddle but it doesnt fit. Any help?

[slate widget]

r-snowl use normal snowl saddles.

variants don't get their own saddle.

[faint cairn]

what do you mean by variants?

[slate widget]

things like X/R/abberant/tek-creatures are variants of normal creatures, unicorn is also a variant.

[faint cairn]

but why add them to the game if they cant have a saddle. thats so strange

[slate widget]

they use the normal creatures saddle lol

[faint cairn]

it doesnt fit 😅

[slate widget]

try again, put it in the R-snowl's inventory and use it.

[thorny granite]

So you know that weird SP respawning bug (if you log out before respawn, they never will?) Well I think I just fixed it somehow, by taking a trip to herbivore island? I was gone a couple days (in game and IRL) and when I came back up to my base again, it was suddenly surrounded by trees that hadn't been there in months (or years for some). It was weird. A nice surprise to be sure. But weird.

[near sandal]

Gimme a 2x 👀

[pastel osprey]

Yeah, I'm not seeing where the tek rifle was disabled on the server, so I legit cannot find it. Will keep looking but thanks. 🙂 We wanted to enable it as it's a private server and we don't have friendly fire on anyway.

[thorny granite]

Also had a few things spawning inside the walls, which happens periodically, dunno why. But I don't dare mess with the resource radii right now haha. I harvested them all though and they haven't come back, except for a couple stones, so I can deal for now.

[faint cairn]

well. that worket. Did not work the first time. Thanks!

[slate widget]

there are a couple different things that can happen with that glitch

1. it just sets a really long resource respawn timer
2. it completely removes the node

[thorny granite]

Just happy to have all my missing trees back.

[slate widget]

the only fix I know for the second thing is loading your save on a dedicated server and waiting for the nodes to return

the first one usually gets fixed if you disable hibernation

[thorny granite]

I didn't touch anything, so I guess it did it on its own.

I do have my respawn timer set to really low now, so it shouldn't be a problem in the future.

[slate widget]

that sometimes happens enough time may fix many problems

[thorny granite]

Ark being Ark

now just to decide whether to go back for that 150 stego I found on herbi lol

[cosmic escarp]

Do level added stats count when breeding?

[nocturne beacon]

I dont think they dont but dont qoute me on that

[cosmic escarp]

Do or don’t?

[nocturne beacon]

I dont think they count

[cosmic escarp]

Damn

[nocturne beacon]

Now that i think about it they definitely dont

[thorny granite]

They don't, it's after-tame, before-leveling.

[nocturne beacon]

So if i took my base lvl 70 thylo and bred it with like a lvl 12 what would happen?

[thorny granite]

55% chance of inheriting stronger stat of each parent.

[nocturne beacon]

Thanks

[thorny granite]

so if one had 100 hp and the other 95 hp, 55% chance of the 100 hp

[nocturne beacon]

So what determines baby lvl

[slate widget]

the stat points.

[nocturne beacon]

Of the parents ?

[slate widget]

in this case one is level 100 and one is level 95.

the stats given to the baby

[thorny granite]

this might help https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Breeding#Stats_of_the_Offspring

[nocturne beacon]

Also is having one male and many females better or is having equal of both better cuz ive been having issues with my dillos not mating

Im making a dillo death squad

[slate widget]

more females is better, the male can always mate. the females have a cooldown.

[nocturne beacon]

One last question do dillos only mate with one female once theyve mated cuz one of my dillos is only mating with one of my female dillos

[thorny granite]

no one male can mate with multiple females at once.

is mating enabled on them all and there is no cooldown?

[nocturne beacon]

Yeah

[thorny granite]

are they close enough to get the hearts?

[nocturne beacon]

Yup

[thorny granite]

I had that with my trikes. I had to squish him in there because the mating bar kept resetting lol

[nocturne beacon]

I guess my dillos are pretty loyal

[kind maple]

Sometimes they register as too far away for some reason

[modest shale]

when do LDL servers Open?

[silent matrix]

Yo i wanna start up a server how do i recruit peeps to join
Without breaking server regulation lmao

Like start an ark server

Without pissing off the discord server

[hot oasis]

Is it possible to make an ark account on ps4 then i can play the same acc on pc?

[modest shale]

no

[lost cosmos]

what is the coolest map with still a lot of cool creatures

[prisma sand]

Use the PvP-Server-PC channel or it’s PvE counterpart

[placid sundial]

Aberration

[static fjord]

genesis part 1

[digital gate]

hey guys, how do you deal with the shitload of eggs when breeding and stacking mutations? how do you treat them (the ones you don't need anymore because you have found the needed mutation but you still have like 150 eggs?)

[true epoch]

Consume them or drop them somewhere

[prisma sand]

I crack them in the incubator

[digital gate]

probably the best way to do it xD

[digital gate]

150 - 200 eggs? xD

[true epoch]

Also holy fuck WC needs to fix the crash issue on PS4, i just failed a bossfight because my tribemate crashed while loading in and i had to babysit their Reaper and do Rockwell, and said Reaper disregarded my instructions and got me killed as a direct result

[prisma sand]

Oh no. I usually keep 20-30 females out per line. I’m not interested in sorting through hundreds of eggs.

[digital gate]

nether am I xD

[prisma sand]

Throw em in the cooker and make kibble?

[lost cosmos]

are chalicotheriums good in any way?

[digital gate]

i would have like 1.500 kibble in one week xD

[prisma sand]

I mean “good” is relative. They have their uses, plus they throw rocks which is always cool.

[digital gate]

the Dinopethecus in lost island are awesome too

they throw poop and slow your opponents down

[prisma sand]

Calicotherium do that wild. Not sure if they’ll do it tames though.

[turbid leaf]

They do throw while tamed.

[violet goblet]

hey guys

finaly can play ark

but i still cant place any structures on a flat surface so yea making a base will be pain

maybe ill just find a small spot to make a platform and just place a bed, mortar & pestle and maybe something else

[willow gorge]

is there a way to get the federation tek armor skins upon spawning on the island?

[flat wigeon]

is the new cluster closed for ever ?

[violet goblet]

hey guys i just made a small hut

the foundation is like

⬜
⬜
⬜

but combined

btw guys what are the steam mods called that almost every ARK youtubers use?

[agile dome]

do u mean the armor or just the skins?

if only the skins without the armor, you need to completed the genesis 2 chronicles all notes then you be able to spawn it in every maps

[agile dome]

you mean the S+ mod?

[violet goblet]

ye

wait how is it fully named?

[native tulip]

my ark is in disk G, can I download any dlc in my F Disk?

[supple galleon]

I got a question will they be making these LDL servers for PVE aswell or just PVP

[agile dome]

Structures Plus (S+)

[violet goblet]

eh screw it

how many mortar & pestles should i make?

[agile dome]

depends on how many do you need?

[violet goblet]

GUYS

martha is alive

she didnt die to the trice

[bitter adder]

Nice

Can I play on a dedicated pve server with someone later ? I’m bored out of my mind with 0 friends who appreciate ark

[silent matrix]

can anybody tell me how to install maps on steam?

[violet goblet]

hey guys i just found this obsidian skin parasaur

he has a black skin with red hot stripes on his uhhh

fin's?

also i think that out of all the tek dino's

the most common seen is the tek stego

well i guess ill be tamin some raptors

gonna need some support with me if ill be ridin my trike

[warm bear]

Best map? On ark

[violet goblet]

carrot 2.0

btw guys if im using a raptor as a ride and or as a support damager

what should i increase?

aaaaaand i see my first target

got a bola with club

that should be enough yet ill be targeting on his thigh

[zinc flame]

How good of a frog am I going to need for the swamp cave? I literally just tamed a max level for cementing past(like max max level), and got instantly melted by those flies in there

[kind maple]

Max level being 150? I don't know though, I haven't been in the swamp cave yet 😄

[zinc flame]

My max dinos dino level is 7x

[zinc flame]

good idea🤣 , its not fun there!

[kind maple]

Maybe Level it up a bit?

[placid sundial]

Open store page and press ‘download’

[silent matrix]

for me it just launches the game and does nothing,says play anyway

[zinc flame]

yeah I think I am going to have to do that a lot. Maybe getting it to at least 6k health and 600-700% damage at min tbh

[high quest]

Will ldl server open trans in some month?

[obsidian wing]

You have to go to the steam workshop for the maps, and add them there.

[violet goblet]

hey guys

back from work

[blazing hound]

e

[violet goblet]

time to hunt down and make 3 more tamed raptors

Wait guys what do i press to make my dino's attack the target

Like make them charge attack the point where i enlisted them to

[placid sundial]

rag specificaly launches the game to download so just give it some time

[glad totem]

Dino damage, should be in the general settings

if set to 0 then they do no damage

odd

not sure

let me check

[limber current]

Yes

[glad totem]

agreed

nah that only affects players

not creatures

[limber current]

Just use a megatherium to farm chitin for paste there, easier

[zinc flame]

ooh ok. Thanks :)
is there much I can do with my frog?

[limber current]

Frog is ok for insects found outside the cave, just not that cave

[violet goblet]

Well is it ok just taming a pteranodon even if you dont have a saddle?

Its gonna be lvl 46

Bc of taming lvling

[lethal garden]

iirc you use megatherium and slowly walk bck while attacking. the bug bodies dont get eaten then bring in frog to eat all the bodies 4 cp

[violet goblet]

Guys i need help

I dunno what i pressed but now everything in my inv and crafting are showing the names of everything

How do i disable it

[limber current]

Q

[violet goblet]

Thank you

Btw is 54 tranq arrows enough to tame a trike?

[umbral dust]

WTF are fjorduhawks broken now, i have it on my sholder an fast travel yet its not coming with me an leaving my back why
?!?!

[wispy frigate]

Use dododex for stuff like that

[arctic sable]

Can someone help me

[hidden river]

when is the extra life event ?

[final panther]

Nov 5th.

[uneven wyvern]

should i raise a lvl 20 magmas that has bad melee dmg

[maiden ember]

Why when i unclaim my dinos i cant kill?

[kind maple]

I think that only works on pvp settings

[maiden ember]

How do i set pvp settings

[kind maple]

Are you on single player?

I don't remember tbh, somebody else has to answer that. I play on a server.

[mossy quail]

can someone help me with breeding and mutation stuff? never completely understood how this to get mutations and all this stuff

[torn pier]

when is the next beginner server wipe?

[native tulip]

my ark is downloaded in G disk I want the lost island dlc to be downloaded in F disk, can I do it or not?

[violet goblet]

Wait guys on what lvl do i get the pteranodon saddle?

[red blade]

36

[red blade]

the simplest form i can explain mutations, is ,,Incest is wincest"

these are additional levels that can occcur during breeding for random stat. after one parent gives 20 mutations to their offspring, these chances drastically fall

[old zealot]

So, the new LDL servers. Are we not allowed to bring characters in? I've tried and failed a couple of times. But I can make a character on an LDL server.

[night echo]

Is possible that the alpha basilisk on Aberration didn't spawn at all? I've looked for all the map but I can't find it anywhere

[final panther]

I believe the idea of the LDL is a new/fresh start.

[light cloak]

it looks to me like you fresh start... and once you save a dino you cannot get it back til you leave LDL

as you can upload them but not download onto LDL?

[old zealot]

The description in the news post says that downloading characters was allowed though?

[violet goblet]

Im gonna tame 3 things in 1 day

A triceratops

And a pelican

[light cloak]

If two stats are the same (hp = 35 on both) then there is a higher chance of mutation. Each mutated HP will be +2 HP. So, the theory is you breed until you have equal stats on both male and female. Then breed those against each other to force it to choose to mutate the stat. Total Stats across the board can only add up to 450 (level 450) Which is why you end up with things like Allosaurus HP 150, Stam 10, Damage 250, rest 1

[violet goblet]

Bc they can fish (i think)

Bc i remember that theres a shoulder pet that can fish

[old zealot]

If you try to keep the "same stats" on both male and female, you will never reach level 450 dinos, or 150 in a single stat.

[light cloak]

you start with same stats..

[old zealot]

Most people run the "stud" method, leaving stats only on male, and keeping the females clean of stats.

If you try for female/male stats, you will cap out your potential 7% mutation chance faster than if you keep only male side mutating.

So you get more 7% chances before reducing to 3½%

[night echo]

Anyone? Please?

[old zealot]

Personally I find, that finding the alpha basilisk is one of the hardest things in this darn game 😛 I dont even know if its 100% that there is one?

And if its not spawned on map, no new chance of alpha will happen until you start killing the current population of basilisks. To open for a chance to spawn.

[placid sundial]

yeah there's no guarantee one will be spawned on the map. whenever a basilisk spawns, there's a chance that an alpha will spawn instead of the normal one, so killing normal basis is the way to go @night echo

[violet goblet]

hey guys so i got free 2 chests from a green airdrop and i made 1 for wood, thanch and fiber while 2 is charcoal, skin and uhhh

narcotics?

dont really know

but i will make one for stone, flint iron ingot and iron bars

[night echo]

Thank you

[night echo]

Thank you

[lethal garden]

for fjordur is the best place for gigas volcano and highlands area?

[light cloak]

there really is only a couple spawn areas

I know on 163 you will find cameras set up and people camping them

[violet goblet]

GUYS

is 900 narcoberries enough?

[old zealot]

There are 3 spawns of gigas on Fjordur. There's obviously volcano as you pointed out. There's the shore of mainland towards volcano as a second spawn. Then a bit more north, there is a spawn west of redwoods. It has a small crevasse going through the spawn. @lethal garden

[violet goblet]

plays breaking bad opening theme

Jesse, its time to make narcotics

[lethal garden]

awesome thanks. ive found so far 10 gigas all have been less than 100 (my goal is 135+ otherwise not worth it) so ive had to drown 10 gigas so far

[violet goblet]

I named my raptor jesse

[old zealot]

Regions in the map are in some way "categorized". So certain regions only spawn certain creatures. Go exploring and you will find more dinos of different varieties. A raft is a good way to explore along the coasts. @silent matrix

[frigid violet]

Is the flamethrower good for anything at all? in pve that is

[tough yarrow]

Bees maybe

[violet goblet]

wait is megalocerus good?

i can also make a iguanadon saddle

[frigid violet]

Guess it depends what you compare it to. Can't imagine it beats a Deinonychus in mobility or damage.

[violet goblet]

but i picked the sword and sickle

also how did it not get censored?

spoke too early

so yea should i learn the mammoth saddle

[frigid violet]

Can someone explain how a dodo at lvl 15 with 0 mutations can birth a level 15 dodo with 2 mutations with identical stats?

[ancient pewter]

punit squares

[ancient pewter]

punit squares

[frigid violet]

punit square? What does that mean

But we would see the base points change still, I'm using the spyglass mod so we can see the actual wild points. They are unchanged.

[placid sundial]

so it's probably just mutated the stats of the other parent to match the first parent in those stats

[frigid violet]

The parents stats are identical, as are their levels.

[placid sundial]

like parent a has 3 points in HP, parent B has 5 points in hp. parent A's hp mutates, giving the baby a mutation and 5 points in hp

[uneven wyvern]

is it against the rules to block dinos from spawning with tamed ones?

[placid sundial]

Are you sure there's actually no mutation ticks in the counter?

counter is not actually tracked with the stat that increased it

so if you mutate health, and then baby inherits the non-mutated health stat, it still has a tick in the mutation counter even if it doesn't have the mutation

[ancient pewter]

@frigid violet check dms

[solar helm]

what map should i try after the island

[frigid violet]

So there is 1 male, 5 females and all 6 have identical levels and stats. Yet they spawned a baby with 2 new mutations and also the same level and identical stats

[ancient pewter]

schored earth @solar helm

[placid sundial]

just don't transfer dinos into scorched (at least till you;re progressed) because it kills the challenge

[placid sundial]

can you dm images of their ancestor pages?

[solar helm]

alr

[ancient pewter]

maybe they dont have ansterors

[flat onyx]

Looking for a tribe

[placid sundial]

#role-assignment then there are lfg channels under #bulletin-board-rules

[silent matrix]

Is there a dc server or anything like that were i can find different servers for smth like RP for example?

[violet goblet]

hey guys whats a terror bird?

is it the therazino?

[frigid violet]

No, it's a mean ostrich. Very mean.

[violet goblet]

is it usefull?

[frigid violet]

Depends I suppose. It can glide, which is fun! But it can't carry much and doesn't do much damage. But they're persistent, so don't be surprised if 2 of them can kill you. Because they just... never stop attacking lol.

[violet goblet]

also i realised that theres a dolphin called ichthyosaurus

i think its a speeding tame

and how am i supposed to get over 200 metal ingots?

[frigid violet]

What level is your survivor?

[violet goblet]

bc i can get a diplo saddle

32

im finaly trying to craft atleast 3 furnaces

[frigid violet]

Don't get a diplo saddle, they're useless really. 200 metal is no problem once you get to level 34 or 36, then you can get an Ankylosaurus which is a dino that can mine metal for you.

[violet goblet]

and a smithy so i could catch up

[cosmic summit]

who on earth tames a diplo

[violet goblet]

i think ill also just upgrade my hut to wood and just

well i think i should find a better place

[frigid violet]

Be warned you aren't safe until you have a stone house. Even then you're unsafe from alpha rexes.

[violet goblet]

stupid tribes that wants a battle bus

[cosmic summit]

is this a pvp server?

that you are referring to

[violet goblet]

no im just telling you there are people like this

[cosmic summit]

ah yeah

[frigid violet]

Well anyway metal as i said is no problem even in large numbers once you get an ankylo, gets even easier once you get an argentavis

[violet goblet]

i will finaly catch up to my stuff if i make 3 furnaces and a smithy

[cosmic summit]

metal is only really an issue when midgame before industrial forge. Even then just takes some time is all

[violet goblet]

wait when do i get the saddle for argen?

[cosmic summit]

lvl 62

[violet goblet]

and ankylo

[frigid violet]

36 iirc, or 34

[violet goblet]

and uhh the stone gatherer

[cosmic summit]

argent is lvl 62

idk about the other two

doed is lvl 34

anky is 36

[frigid violet]

Doedicurus (stone gatherer) is either 34 or 36, ankylosaurus is 34 or 36

[cosmic summit]

yeah doedicurus is 34, anky is 36

looked it up

[violet goblet]

if i do get Doed should i name him stoner?

[cosmic summit]

if you want lol

[violet goblet]

and anky metal poisoning

[cosmic summit]

its your choice lol

[violet goblet]

well i need a crossbow after all

so yea on my way getting 3 furnaces and a smithy to catch up on everything

[cosmic summit]

you on a server?

[spark rose]

do you get boss tributes if u unclaim and kill?

[silent matrix]

I need help

[tough yarrow]

No. Only wild dinos.

[silent matrix]

So when I attempted a cave on the island I started trying to attack the bugs there, but it would not let me, and they (even tho they were trying) couldn’t either

I can interact with anything when this happens

Not can anything interact with me

[frigid violet]

Are you in godmode?

[silent matrix]

Nope

Plain old singleplayer

I can attack stuff outside the cave

Any help?

[frigid violet]

I don't know what could cause this, sorry. I'd try enabling and then disabling Godmode while in a cave and see if anything changes

[silent matrix]

Ok thx

[nocturne beacon]

Is there a way to decrease dino mating interval without changing settings

[wispy frigate]

Possibly a gen2 mission buff, I can’t remember exactly
Other than that no

[eager ruin]

is there a popular unnoficial server that wipes like once a year

win 10

[cosmic summit]

what are yalls preferred ways to play?

like general settings, server or singleplayer, etcetc

[silent matrix]

i got a baby megatherium with 497% melee damage is it good?

[cosmic summit]

mutated or not, and whats the max lvl dino cap

[silent matrix]

they both are 270 lvl normally they were 180 and its not mutated

[cosmic summit]

so the max dino cap on the server is 180?

[silent matrix]

yes

[cosmic summit]

then yeah its a good melee stat

[silent matrix]

im gonna try to find a good hp megatherium

[violet goblet]

well guys i did it

i got 3 furnaces

now i need a smithy, craft the iron pick and ill finaly start.... i guess mid-game?

ill also tame a stego, anky and doed

but now ill just go to sleep and ill get my tools tommorow

[cosmic summit]

not really

just mid early game tbh

[silent matrix]

i gotta tame a desmodus

[frigid violet]

The Deinonychus needs a nerf, badly

[cosmic summit]

wont get one e.e

[frigid violet]

pity, it overshadows every other landbased dino 😄

[nocturne beacon]

Whats the easiest way to get ind forge for the first time

[cosmic summit]

set up lots of refining forges

fill them, and then profit

[lavish nacelle]

Hi

Hey does anyone know why I keep getting a message saying that I have "Lost/timedout connection to host"?

[keen bloom]

What color drop means theres element in space on gen2

[rocky plinth]

why cant i craft electrical generator? i have it unlocked and i have the mats too

[final panther]

Where are you trying to craft it?

[rocky plinth]

fabricator

its just gray and doesnt change

it says craft all (1) but i cant craft anything

[tough yarrow]

Do you have gas in the fabricator?

[rocky plinth]

Oh yea... my bad ty

Thank you lol, ive been on for a few hours and ive just been waiting and waiting

[woven flint]

If you have a bed in a different realm on fjordur can you spawn there?

[remote raven]

yea

[woven flint]

ok

[remote raven]

its gonna be shown where the realm is suppoised to be on the midgard map

[woven flint]

last time i spawned i died but i think it was bc of my bed placement lol

[woven flint]

ok

ty

[lament cedar]

I’ve seen wild ravagers destroy them, but I’m not sure exactly what structure tier they are treated as, probably wood

[frigid violet]

Can I replace manual parts of a stone pipe with metal parts?

[midnight zealot]

Yes

[remote raven]

just got killed by my own wyvern feeling good

[vernal ember]

is ark 2 going to have DLSS?

[lost stag]

you shall find out when ark 2 comes out , or a little before :)

Why was the rock drake AI changed so that only those in render chase you when you pick up an egg now? I thought it used to be all of them.

[pastel osprey]

Hello, I asked about the Tek Railgun being disabled last night, where can I find that in the .ini so I can enable it? I did not see anything about it being disabled on the list and am trying ways to enable said weapon. 🙂

[visual palm]

Always as bean

Nothing can agro out render

[frigid violet]

(Valguero) How do you raise a fire wyvern? Do they eat meat?

[severe estuary]

wyverns milk

[severe estuary]

knock out a female wyvern and steal its milk

[loud relic]

do desmo do bleed damage?

[regal yarrow]

Not a conventional bleed

[half schooner]

can i post crash logs in here for help? if not where should i go?

[regal yarrow]

Bobs with probs is the place for that

Sometimes you have to wait for someone who is good with understanding them

[half schooner]

ok, thanks

alr posted them there, now time to wait 😄

[rain shale]

looking for someone who sells a whale

[severe estuary]

space whale?

[half bobcat]

Do you guys know how to enable the X thing that shows on your crossbow when you aim at something?

[unborn wagon]

are you on PC? press H for extended hud. (You my need to toggle extended hud in your settings)

[half bobcat]

That’s not what I’m talking about let me show you in dms

[silent matrix]

Enable hit markers in settings.

[topaz yew]

Wish Fjordur had mutagel. It has almost everything but is missing a few key things.

[tranquil pebble]

1 person that be of Spain to play in PS4?

[silent matrix]

How do you hatch eggs

[night whale]

Wyvern milk would be way better if it was stackable, you practically have a buffed health brew, and alphas give a ton

[night whale]

It has to be a fertilized egg, place it on the floor, if it says “too cold” get some torches or campfire and light them, place the egg and adjust accordingly, if it says too hot craft air conditioners and a generator to cool it down (ac works both ways) and you can also use the egg incubator on genesis2 to do all of that easier

[silent matrix]

How do you fertilize it

[silent matrix]

Is there a specific gen 1 mission for a ocean platform cuz I swear they used to spawn like hot cakes from one of them

I only remember doing dodo basketball, the races, fish hell in the artic and a few more

[night whale]

You need two dinosaurs of the same species and opposite gender, and enable mating

This will produce one fertilized egg

[viral pike]

How fast does the food on baby Wyverns drop?

[silent matrix]

very

to answer your question

so you best keep stock on wyvern milk, unless you got a fridge

[fair wyvern]

For wyvern food drain the formula is (((current food*10)/60)/60) for how many hours until 0 food

[silent matrix]

Why does it seem like trank arrows in a crossbow are better than trank darts in a longneck

[brazen quarry]

Can someone take me to a boss?

[limber current]

Because they are better

[silent matrix]

How so

[limber current]

Cheaper, easier to mass produce and faster to unload on your target

[dusky minnow]

Less torpor and more damage per shot

Use tranq darts always

[mild anchor]

Hey guys, is there a logical explanation on why fjordur takes 35GB and Lost Island takes 60GB?
If i remember correctly, fjordur is bigger, it has dimensions and all of that stuff

[limber current]

Tranq darts is more for creatures that will most likely die if u use crossbow

[mild anchor]

Also, why in god's name are some ark maps so goddamn heavy

[dusky minnow]

Size of maps/caves/artifacts/boss

[mild anchor]

Fjordur is much bigger, but is only half as heavy

[dusky minnow]

Probably because there’s less stress on the bosses

[pliant locust]

Very very poor map optimization, Nekatus did a much better job at this with Fjordur

[boreal spire]

how do you get stryders to collect what's in my inventory

[bold ether]

You gotta ask him nicely😉

[random elk]

Guys

[bold ether]

I just link mine to ded box

[random elk]

I just got the game

Like literally just got it

[agile dome]

your stryder must be a saddle beg attachment and you use mining drill

[boreal spire]

i mean i linked mine too but i saw some using a mining drill and and the stryder automatically gets the person's item

[boreal spire]

ohhh it has to be a body attachment?

[agile dome]

yeah only saddle beg attachment can do that

[uneven wyvern]

U can use drill without the bag

[agile dome]

if its other attachment you cannot link your mining drill to your strdey

[boreal spire]

yea but im using theriz to get more wood

[uneven wyvern]

I get more on a stryder

[agile dome]

you must be in the strder range too for its auto transfer from your innventory when using mining drill

[uneven wyvern]

It has no range limit

[agile dome]

he's asking about beg attachment with mining drill not the normal stryder

[uneven wyvern]

The drill is good without the bag

[agile dome]

the add on function come with the beg attachment

its good if you got 2 people mining together

[boreal spire]

i know how the drill works, i just thought it also comes with the beg attachment function

[fringe plover]

who on xbox smalls

[umbral dust]

Why is my single player game lagging more then my online?

[violet goblet]

good morning

[mild anchor]

its 3 am here

time to sleep

[violet goblet]

wdym

[mild anchor]

cya

[violet goblet]

im from europe

[mild anchor]

and im from south america

[kind maple]

Because online, the server does most of the work. Single player, your machine does all of the work.

[violet goblet]

Guys i did it

I reached metal age

Aka i got 3 furnaces a smithy and crafted a metal pick finaly

Gathering will be much easyier

Also i found out that noone mention that a stego is a good wood gatherer

Gets more then 300 wood

[limber current]

Because other dinos do better, like mammoth, theri and beaver

[umbral dust]

so Why is it single player Survive the Ark Beta and offical Beta are so different? isnt single player default offical settings?

[violet goblet]

then why dont they mention underated gatherers?

[limber current]

Like what? The stego is not underated, its just bad compared to the rest

[violet goblet]

well i just know that there are gatherers that get outshined by alot yet atleast they do they're job

[static fjord]

its more of an "early game" wood gatherer. hence, if you ask "whats a good wood gatherer" it'll probably be assumed to be asked at end game and thus stegos wont be mentioned

[lost cosmos]

is extinction cool?

[frozen folio]

Will my farm be able to get greenhouse effect if I make it in a cave that has fauna in it?

It's like a huge open cave with trees, animals and resources (rock, metal, crystal)

And no, it's not an abberation cave

The only hostile things in it are bears and Dilos

[silent matrix]

any one wanna play ark epic games

[prisma sand]

Probably not but best to check. Build a single foundation where you want to place it, put a crop plot and surround it with greenhouse walls and a ceiling. Look at the plot and you’ll have a definitive answer.

That’s a greenhouse ceiling btw. Not just anything.

[boreal scaffold]

bruh the official server i was on just now didnt let me join back at all, restarted my xbox and 0 people are in the server 💀

now it lets me join

[frozen folio]

Yeah, I can do that, but I'm running low on cementing paste and I'm afraid I won't build fast enough to get everything back before I can only demolish them

[prisma sand]

In that case just do 1 wall and ceiling and it should work

Anything over 0 will mean it works

[frozen folio]

alr I'll try, ty

[cold seal]

Hi any 1 wanna tribe

Small btw

[lost cosmos]

can i take wyverns to valguero gamma boss?

[serene plover]

Why did I lose the sound in the ark? it is everywhere except the park itself, the volume is normal in the settings

[vagrant walrus]

Nope

[languid osprey]

My Ark keeps crashing whenever I go to play the Island, me and my friend played it yesterday so we have progress, I added 4 mods to my mod actives, it keeps crashing, I've verified game files, run it as administrator and uninstalled all my mods and reinstalled them, how do I fix it???

[violet goblet]

sup guys

well i think i got much further then what i did on my older world

im just gathering some metal with my parasaur and my raptor

raptor is just for some protection

maybe i should have also taken my dilo

[left forum]

Proper protection can only come from either a Dodo, or a Tickle Chicken

[violet goblet]

What about a spino, trike or a horde of raptors with dilos

[zinc flame]

Is a megatherium with 5.3k health, and 380% melee any good? It is level 270, but it has loads of stats into food. Should I use it in breeding, or just have it as a dino to protect my base

[violet goblet]

well he does get reduced damage from bugs but yea i think you should pump up the hp to atleast 6.5k and the damage to 450%

[frigid violet]

What's the next step up from metal tools for someone who does not transfer?

[violet goblet]

also i found a female triceratops while i have a male, should i try taming to start breeding the triceratopses?

[violet goblet]

did you finaly reach the point where you can make metal tools?

[frigid violet]

No I've been there for a long while, and I'm wondering how to get started with Tek tools if you do not do server transfers

[violet goblet]

oh well i cant help bc i just started working with metal

im planning on getting 3 dino's

[frigid violet]

Which 3? Also which map u playing

[violet goblet]

a Stego, Anky and a Deod

the island

[frigid violet]

Good choices all 3! My single biggest tip for you playing on the Island is to go get a frog. They're by far the best for movement until you can get a wolf

[violet goblet]

i thought the frog is just to farm chitin

[frigid violet]

It jumps insanely far. Nothing will ever catch up to you if you ride it

[violet goblet]

also yea i like the DIRE wolf, theyre like wolfs but theyre DIRE

well i cant make the frog saddle yet

dont know what lvl

[frigid violet]

And you can shoot your gun / crossbow from it. Means its the easiest dino to tame other dinos with.

[violet goblet]

btw i made both the metal pick and hatchet

[frigid violet]

Try to search for beelsebufo in the engrams. The one you see will be the level needed.

[violet goblet]

hmmmm once i do get both anky and deod it shouldnt be a problem making a base

[frigid violet]

Where on the island are you positioned?

[violet goblet]

lemme check

80, 31

[frigid violet]

Ah same spot as mine then I think, fairly peaceful there

[eternal merlin]

How’s everyone? What’s going on, What’s on ya to do list?

Day 341 of looking for an Active beehive with a Queen Bee 🤦‍♂️

[static fjord]

getting empty beehives?

[eternal merlin]

Sadly, it’s a little frustrating but years of spawning and me not bothering a single beehive until now so it’s kinda expected

[static fjord]

if you have access to commands, you can break all beehives

[eternal merlin]

The very thought of spawning or commanding🤢🤮

Would be so much quicker though, then, wouldn’t the whole game 😂😂

[static fjord]

commands dont inherently mean cheating though, its perfectly fine to do regular dino wipes/hive wipes because its healthy
prime example here of what happens without regular aforementioned wipes.

[eternal merlin]

Very true, and it can spawn higher level and newly coloured event dinos etc

[violet goblet]

hey guys im back

i needed to fire up the fireplace to keep the house warm

[sand crypt]

How much kibble do i need for a higher level amargo?

[violet goblet]

is it good to make trice kibble?

or dodo kibblew

[sand crypt]

Any kibble is good to make

[violet goblet]

k

guys i finaly reached the point where i can make a gun and a saddle for the sarco

i dont think the sarco is worth it tho

[eternal merlin]

Sarco’s handy in caves and rivers coz Piranhas don’t like them

[violet goblet]

oh so its worth is: so-so?

[torn pier]

It’s good for tight spaces in caves, but a kapro with points in health and damage would be a bit better

Get a baryonx and you’ll have the best of both words

[eternal merlin]

Everyone likes the Barry’s

Last cave run I did was like Noah’s Ark, 2 of those, 2 of these etc, I had some spare Dilos so I sent 6 ahead of me and been trying out Pheromone Darts lately

[violet goblet]

what is better?
Pike
sword

[eternal merlin]

Lance lol 😂 Lance keeps me at a gd distance if I’m honest

[violet goblet]

the pike?

but what is the sword good at?

ok then

[quick yarrow]

Sword is more damage and faster I think

Pike is long range

[pliant locust]

Go with sword, as beach said it’s faster and more damage, and the tiny difference in range will normally not really make any real difference id say

[prisma sand]

Sarcos are great tames. Very useful in the ocean

[violet goblet]

ok well

how do i hatch a trike?

dont really understand how this hatching works

[silent matrix]

whats the best flyer in ark?

[eternal merlin]

There’s a Pike, Sword and there’s a Lance 👍🏼

[eternal merlin]

How much milk does a wyvern require while growing up?

[prisma sand]

It’s dependent on your rates

[frigid violet]

Ballpark, regular rates, 170

[prisma sand]

As well as the wyverns level

[prisma sand]

Like official?

[frigid violet]

difficulty 1.0, I think the time it takes dinos to grow up is shorter as well as cuddle interval. beyond that regular

[prisma sand]

If you’re using SP settings it’s possible you won’t even need to feed it

Difficulty doesn’t affect it. It’s the baby maturation multiplier

[frigid violet]

oh ok that one i dont think is regular, we've reduced the time it takes for a baby to grow up by like 20-30% I think

I've got 15 milk now, maybe that'll be enough

Obtaining the eggs (male 170, female 70) was such a hassle I wanna make sure we get a brood going immediately lol

[prisma sand]

You’re more than likely not even gonna need to feed your baby wyverns in that case. But they will request milk for imprinting.

[violet goblet]

how dangerous is the bronto?

bc my raptor and dilo can kill trices that are higher lvl then 30

[prisma sand]

Not dangerous

Good chance it’ll kill a trike and dilo though

[violet goblet]

not the raptor?

well im getting hide so i could get saddles

also i unlocked both deod and ankylo saddles

[prisma sand]

I meant raptor and dilo

[violet goblet]

they both have 500 hp

and i upgraded theyre atk and its higher then 200%

[prisma sand]

Yeah I wouldn’t try it

That bronto has thousands of hp

[violet goblet]

i guess slow grind it is

[prisma sand]

You can kill them easy with a ranged weapon

They’re slow af

[violet goblet]

once i get like 4 raptors with higher hp then 750 and atk 300% or more with a trike then yea thats enough

my trike has 1000 hp

wait i just realised

i have a female raptor

so that means i just need a male one

[warm bear]

Anyone like non-dedicated ark

[eternal merlin]

Ouch… that’s a lot to go wrong all in 1 go😬 Never know, it might not of saved so you could have all your stuff still, fingers crossed

Can’t Tame Alphas😬

Well if you’re going to spawn may aswell just spawn a Giga or a Rex Army etc

Lol 😂 Fair enough

I must admit to cheating once coz my raft was stuck in the mesh but I was literally living on the raft and hadn’t built a base so had to use the ghost mode to get out and then once on the move Saved and got outta there

Luckily it only happened to me the Once, an Update long ago during End of Lockdown, lost alot of stuff then, couldn’t believe it when I spawned back on a beach looking at my Hand… We’ve all been there

[prisma sand]

No

[pliant locust]

Would be nice if it wasn’t as broken

[cosmic summit]

I only play non dedicated ark

in the form of singleplayer

the floating jellyfish are a feature, not a bug.

[pliant locust]

Yea I meant more touching water instant teleport, no way to get rid of tether, multiple respawn (of resources) issues, terrible and sometimes basically impossible to fix problems when you try to connect with friends and so much more lol

It’s a very poorly working way to play ark 😶

[cosmic summit]

ah. well I dont play non dedicated with friends.

mainly because I dont have any but past that, yeah its not good for with friends lol

[whole herald]

anyone wanna start fresh on official?

[pliant locust]

That’s kind of the point though, otherwise it’s just SP.
(Which is affected by multiple bugs too, some which are pretty game breaking such as not respawning resource nodes if you quit before they respawned) etc ^^

[cosmic summit]

meh singleplayer works fine for me. Other than the floating jellies

[whole herald]

anyone wanna start fresh on official?

[pliant locust]

Go to recruitment and don’t spam every channel, that’s not really the place

[whole herald]

sorry

[eternal merlin]

Both and the Weather conditions

Doesn’t lose torpor faster, it gives you more resilience

Handy for caves coz Snakes and Megalania

[whole herald]

anyone got a tribe i can join?

[viscid drift]

anyone wanna play?

[pulsar hull]

I've been trying to tame this male triceratops lvl 2 with berrys

It's been almost an hour of me knocking it out and giving it more berries

It isn't getting tamed

@lethal turret

How do I fix this

Nah

[static fjord]

what berries are you giving it

[pulsar hull]

I've been using Tinto berries and mejo berries

[zealous parcel]

are there no small tribe servers anymore?

[pulsar hull]

I've been so frustrated

What should I give it

[static fjord]

whats its taming % at

are you forcefeeding it berries

[sand crypt]

How much kibble is recommended for a level 100 amargo?

[pulsar hull]

I just put it in it's inventory

Idek how to force feed it

[static fjord]

whats its taming % at

[pulsar hull]

60

60.2%

[static fjord]

then its taming, just wait and it'll tame

[pulsar hull]

The tame bar isn't going up

[static fjord]

make sure it has berries otherwise its taming bar will drop down

it goes up everytime it eats, not always.

[pulsar hull]

It's not eating

[zealous parcel]

are there no small tribe server anymore?

[static fjord]

wait 5 minutes and you'll see it eat by itself

[pulsar hull]

Berries aren't going down either

[static fjord]

because it eats by itself after a while

[pulsar hull]

It's been more than 5 minutes while unconscious

Still not eating

[static fjord]

okay then wait longer

[pulsar hull]

I've seen yet vids they eat by themselves

After like 2 minutes

Yo can u join my server and help me out

Although idrk how u can join

I'll send u a pic in dms on what it looks like rn

[long flicker]

yo chill, it'll eat on its own

don't feed it the black or white berries and you're good

black berries are for keeping it asleep, white berries are to wake it up

[static fjord]

i cant join, nor do i need a screenshot

just wait, if its at 60% then its already in the process of taming

[long flicker]

it won't eat black berries on its own, white berries just destroy TE

[pulsar hull]

But the taming bar isn't going up

Will it wait when it's awake?

I'm new so idrk Abt the game

[long flicker]

what's it food stat at

[pulsar hull]

The taming bar?

[long flicker]

no, food stat

[pulsar hull]

The taming bar is at 0 percent

[pulsar hull]

3300.0

[long flicker]

and max?

[pulsar hull]

It's lvl 2

[static fjord]

does it have berries.

[long flicker]

... yes but what's the max food

it'll eat when it's down by 50 food
if you're force feeding then it won't work
If it's white or black then it won't work

[pulsar hull]

The taming effectiveness is at 60 not the taming bar

[pulsar hull]

It's the purple and red ones

The mejo berries and Tinto berries

[static fjord]

are you sure the berries are in its inventory and not yours

[long flicker]

mejo are best, just put them in it and walk away

[pulsar hull]

How do I check it

[long flicker]

that too^

[pulsar hull]

Yes 100%

[zealous parcel]

are there no small tribe server anymore?

[long flicker]

it's written on the stat?

[static fjord]

how many berries are in its inventory

[pulsar hull]

15 mejo 40+ tinto

41 Tinto to be exact

[long flicker]

it'll eat on its own if its food stat is more than 50 below max

[viscid drift]

someone wanna paly?

[long flicker]

if it doesn't eat then then you probably fucked some setting up

[long flicker]

#735196255483068497 is where you wish to be

[frigid violet]

Hi,
I lost my original male in a breeding line, and have 6 females with 0 mutations. I want more females to continue the line, but I don't know how to obtain more with identical stats. Is that going to be impossible now?

[viscid drift]

thx

[long flicker]

get a random male and try to breed a male with the exact same stats and level as the female

[long flicker]

looking at the screenshot, did you mess with any settings?

[pulsar hull]

The HP part

Not just that the hunger thingy I think aswell

So that when I tamed them they wouldn't get hungry

@long flicker

[long flicker]

you probably messed the wrong thing and now it's just not losing food at all

[pulsar hull]

I turned off the food thingy

So I think the trike is hungry now

I'll make some tranq arrows and try again

[lethal garden]

so for console you cant edit the ini to have higher lvl dinos to have say lvl 180 dinos but can you change the code if you use something like nitrado to have a server?

[lethal turret]

I'm just a discord mod

[pulsar hull]

@long flicker I got em

Finally have a dino man SHEEESHHHHHH

[long flicker]

nice

[austere wyvern]

Do i breed my rexes to have high stamina to is it important or just health and melee?

[violet goblet]

guys

so i made 3 parts on taming resource gatherers

1 2 and 3

1. was to get their blueprints aka engrams

2. craft the saddle's and the crossbow

and 3. find and tame em

part 1 is complete while part 2 is half way

i finaly made the crossbow 😄

now i just need the metal enough to make saddles for anky and deod

yes i do have the stego one

so can ya'll mark a place where i can get the anky and deod the closest?
im at 80, 31

[ancient badge]

they spawn at mountain

[stable drum]

Just health and melee. I cant really think of any reason to level stam

[violet goblet]

guys...

my worst enemy is infront of me

therazino...

im on a trike with more then 1000 hp with a raptor that has more then 500 hp yet more then 200% atk

and i have a crossbow

so is it enough to take revenge after what it did to me last time?

[hot oasis]

I was playing ark solo in the island and i realized that my map was hella dry , they were barely dinos spawning.I did a cheat"destroywilddinos" and now the dinos are back.Sharing this in case somoene need this.Be careful , some dinos may also spawn in ur base

[weary marsh]

Can you bola an argy

[daring tundra]

If you use a chain bola

[weary marsh]

Oh

Ok

[violet goblet]

so am i strong enough to kill a therazino?

[static fjord]

depends on the theris level, wouldnt risk it though.

[violet goblet]

i didnt go attack it

yet why do i have such anger to just attack it and kill the therazino bc of what it did to my older world

[static fjord]

i'd recommend placing 3 or so spike walls in a row, shooting the theri from behind the spike walls and letting it die without using any dinos

[violet goblet]

but what if its smart enough

or are they that dumb?

[wispy frigate]

Its ark, they’re never smart enough

[violet goblet]

so it will just aggro on the spike walls

even if it was me who aggro'ed it?

[static fjord]

that, or it'll just fail to attempt to reach you and die.

i'd still bring the trike and raptor on standby though

[violet goblet]

guys i have some news

when i was going to hunt the therazino

he was so close that i didnt realise

but then he started attacking

so with out the walls i started fighting non riding

and i won but with a cost

i lost Jesse the raptor

but at the same time the therazino died

so she took the last hit

bc she has the claws

another good news is that im lvl 37 and to get the pteranodon saddle i need to be lvl 38

so i will finaly start thriving in the skies getting to places much faster

also i did have tamed a pteranodon pretty long ago and it has 500 hp while also alot of stamina

i was putting everything to stamina

[weary marsh]

my dung beetle just killed a level 80 saber

[violet goblet]

less go

[hot oasis]

This shit can fight??!!

[pseudo karma]

Anyone else not able to start gen 1 missions?

[violet goblet]

guys i just killed a bronto with a crossbow
