im playin single player
I think to achieve higher bat taming effectiveness, you'll want to let it pick up small tames such as Moschops or Ovis. @still merlin
(Just letting the bat feed on you will still work, though)
anyone else have trouble launching a world with mods in SP?
does it override character datas on fjordur
cuz i play not dedicated with my friend on fjordur
Yes, but if you are breeding them it doesn't matter, a baby gets the parents stats at 100% effectiveness. So if you lost 30 levels in taming you'd see that distribution in the baby
That's true, just not optimal starting stock
Pretty much every tame you utilize is poop until you breed it anyways. The moschops is just so painful, I uselly pop into the small cave and tame up like 10 bats to use and have my 15 aside to breed acruel stats
Got bats when imprinted and leveled to 4k hp, 2k Stam, 700 melee, 900 weight. It's my giga killer
I get the feeling you're overlooking or misunderstanding the value of high taming effectiveness
I see none, it just provides max possible level out the gate.
Imprint is the value, reduced damage and increased damage output
I could perhaps overlook it for a bat or another flyer, since you could still wind up with "good enough" stats but generally it's a much better plan to go for high effectiveness when taming. Which means (imo) it's best practice, and it's usually better to recommend best practices to newer players.
Anyone else had an update on playstation?
i may ask again does going to fjordur with my character override character data on fjordur or can i just go there get a desmodus and go back to li and still play with my original fjordur character
It will overwrite it if that character is on there
Couldn't they upload their characters at an ob while on the first map, and then download from an ob on the new map?
Or something along those lines? I forget the process
i never heard about that sooo idk
Is it a single player mode?
If you already have a save file there with a character it'll overwrite it i think
Just use your player on fjurdor to tame the bats, then upload them in the one and you can download it with your player on lost island
The upload is linked to your account not the character you created
I find using tamed dinos outside of a few scenarios like bears and crystal wyvs a waste of time, I expect them to die and breed them to get what I want which is best practice in my opinion
we're very early game rn so i dont think ill be able to do that
Tame a maewing, it raises things for you basically
If it imprinted babies for you, it'd be the perfect nanny
anyone know why i open hexa store, it freeze screen long time , it bug ?
guys, i am trying to tame my first carcha, but looks like it doesnt want to bite. I killed my own tek parasaur, he smell it but looks like he dont want to eat it, he dont bite
we did trap him in a cage of 4 metal dino gates as a giga
but he smell, but then nothing else
he dont attack at all
Take it out of cage @halcyon delta
for real?
i m kinda scared to do that
will he attack me right after i take him out?
@silent matrix
Hahah maybe here is whatcha do
Put 3 wild stegos someplace nearby
Then kill and lure it to them
It takes 3 to ride it
ah
My ark keeps failing to launch a world, it freezes and task manager says itws not responding. is this a thing for everyone?
cant i just give him a diplo?
Do charchar’s go up to lvl500?
Depends on the server settings, think Gigas have almost the same.
im on official, its the first time i seen over 48hr cooldown on m8 >.<
150 on official 150+ on unofficial
I mean on official can it be leveled to 500
regular vanilla dinos go to 450 but the newer dinos have been going up to lvl 500, like dinopithecus etc

Does cryo throwing out ur carc still crash the game?
Only the genesis and LI dinos. I'm pretty sure charcha has the 450 cap
Only genesis released creatures (r, x, stalkers, shadow, etc) and the dinopithecus specifically. LI dinos themselves do not level past 450.
huh alrighty ty
that doesn't apply to the other LI new creatures or the Fjordur ones tho?
No
Andrewsarchus, sinoma, etc (excluding the dinopithecus) are all capped at 450.
The only reason the dinopithecus goes to 500 is because it is a child class of the ferox (a genesis creature).
Was about to ask the exact same thing he did lol
since were asking questions, whats the line for above the dinos head on the pods
if i have tames on ab and im on extinction SP does that mean their food goes down? or does the ark "freeze"
@buoyant vault use #800537518843756544 for advertising. See #bulletin-board-rules.
yes i meant to ask does a singleplayer world count in that case?
If you're in sp, the game will pause/stop once you exit to main menu.
can ark add like a thing where we can see dinos topidady and heath,what it food needs
Awesome spyglass mod.
U can use magnifying glass to see its health and torpor
Ya but I mean for Xbox
Other than mods, no.
You can check preferred food on Dodorex or the wiki. For torpor your only option is magni glass.
Well do the mods cost money
If u on genesis can use extended hud info on wild dinos too
They do not.
Ok thanks but is the ark developers creat a thing for like idk something to show u like everything about the dinosaurs
what is the trick to removing a leech and not die by jumping in a campfire? i jump on the fire and almost die each time and leech never comes off
Anyone know how to find good thylas on the island?
Every thyla I’ve found has been 160-
And it has been 20 of them
I’ve just been running around collecting apex drips and killing them
Did u check the dinos u ridden recently for any leeches?
I believe if a leech has attacked to your Dino, the game bugs out and a leech appears on your screen as if it were on you
It’s kinda hard to explain
Yes thats why i asked him to check his dinos
Why don't they leave 10x rates till ark 2
When’s the cross platform sotf
December afaik.
i havent played ark in a while and uhh. i need help knowing whats new
i have not, do they get leeches attached to them?
If they do the leech shows up on your screen
Case #29703 @outer heath has been muted for 1 hour.
Reason: Posting a unauthorised Discord invite link
Is it possible to spawn the Rockwell Prime terminal? I redgunned it for the lolz and now i can't figure out how to make it appear again
For the love of God can we please get a retexture for the giga? This is getting so ridiculous, it's been like 5 years. We have this low quality model for the strongest dino in the game
when does arkpoc wipe
Lol not me coming back onto aberration on the surface at night and still getting the scorch sunlight but not take damage smh
i think spawns on fj need to be sorted as chars and gigas aint spawning
so we all know when you want to find a creature you kill everything in the area leave and come back until you find the creature you want right?
so what does one do when those areas are basically dead space?
example: i am on ps4 singleplayer Fjordur and have been looking for gigas for about a week or two now to get hearts for the alpha dragon boss fight; or to get a mate for the R giga i have; or more recently to tame a carchar
now i have used gg wikis spawn map to find out where they spawn, and with banners marked the coordinates stated on the wiki.
the area in between these banners in area 1 (near green ob) nothing spawns... except fish in the water.
Area 2 has a 'dead space' in between the cliffface and Poglin cove; all spawn points work around that area except where the banners mark the supposed 'giga spawn point'
Area 3 has a nothing spawning in between the two banners as well; the oil fields from the shore to the foot of the cliff face is dead space
so my question is what is going on? am i having bad luck or when they patched the spawns to lessen the alpha creature spawning did it affect the gigas as well
Anybody knows how to update ark server version using pterodactyl panel?
i dreamed last night i was taming a carchar and during its taming it went 100% then restarted the bar LOL
i found an area on Fjordur that um reminds me of i think the second level for LoTR conquest game
and i crashed
IM so moving my base there eventually
maybe
anyone hav good mod suggestiopns
What kind of mods are you looking for?
QoL and then ones that add more content and dinos and such
Super Structures is a huge QoL mod highly recommended, no untamables let’s you tame some of the normally untamables, the Marnii mods add some good creatures and items, for adding Dino’s I typically just search that in the steam workshop and check out anything with 4-5 stars.
super structures instead of S+ kinda thing?
Yeah. I prefer super structures of S+
S+ i think lets u pickup ur structures so long as u build the s+ or was it more space i havent seen too much on yt using it
Does anyone know the best way to farm leech blood? I need to do a lot of antidotes
Island swamp cave kills all the leeches in there
Better Waypoints is a great little QoL mod imo
Oh, well, that will make using mods a little more difficult
yea, it sucks, I really was looking forward to playing it
Only live carnifloras have either their mouths open or they're moving right? They can't stay static?
Just tamed my first rex
y'all know where the xp multiplier setting is on beacon?
Man ark is real good for curing thasslophobia
Not only can you turn all the big scary water monsters to your side, doing so is a great way to see exactly how unthreatening they actually are
I had been assuming that pretty much any Mosasaur lost a fight with any squid for the longest time and just now I decided "fuck it" and took my mosa to the ragnarok squid pit
And despite the fact how laughably bad the mosasaurus is at actually fighting underwater it tore those squids apart even when they grabbed it
Including an alpha
I'm pretty new to breeding, and I watched this youtube video where they said you should start your mutation chain with a base female and a base male with 0 mutations and good stats. Someone gifted me a few pretty good super mutated dinos on the server I'm on, and I was wondering if I bred one of those with a regular dino I tamed from the wild, would their baby work as a base dino? So I could start stacking health mutations etc on top of the already great stats?
no, the baby of the mutated dino bred with a normal, will be mutated
Anyone on Xbox wanting a dope pvp cluster to start on come to crossark1
Well looks like the update again messed up other Maps that do not have the new Dino on it!!
what's the best way to get sulfur on lost island?
farm the sulfur rocks at the wyvern trench
Im having an issue, I brought my favorite shadowmane into a friends server, and for some reason its not leveling up anymore, its level 400 and stuck there, been using it a lot and I love it to bits but why is it not leveling anymore? I put it into the obelisk and brought it back out, nothing
can't seem to go more than 5 seconds without a flock of them following me
Hey, i have ark advance 10 as a mod on my server but cant find spawn codes for the mod anywhere? Anyone know where i can find them? They're not even on the workshop page in steam.
or you can transfer to fjordur to farm sulfur and sennd it back, its safer in fjordur
this normal?
or is there a cap on level?
a poison wyvern killed me and then a lightning killed my fjordhawk and I don't know where my stuff went...
I think it was only a few seconds after I died, should I just look between my body and my bed?
Will there be turkey trials and winter wonderland this year?
I found my fjordhawk's body underwater but it won't let me access the inventory
you can only put 88 levels into a tame. Is the xp bar on the tame full? If yes it won’t be able to level up anymore
not full per say, it keeps saying how much before next level up can be reached and it says a certain amount of xp
let me show you
I just don’t understand because in that video when they were breeding their mutated dinos (so like 5/20 mutation for example) with a base dino, they were specifically looking for only mutated babies and killed off the other ones. So if mutations don’t have a 100% chance of occurring why would the baby have a mutation in this case?
Or is it that if one parent has 5/20 and one has 0/20 the baby will have 5/20? And if both have 5/20 the baby will have 10/20? I’m so confused 😩
Is it just for me or is the hlna lagging and looping the same items when you scroll? (Gen 2)
Im trying to get a dino army for the bosses and know wich dinos i need but what lvl and how many i should breed is my issue cuz i dont wanna go overkill but i also want to survive
Can new dino go boss fight
Can your tames breed while you go offline in a none dedicated server?
guys, am i the only one that randomly died after this patch?
Is there an official release date of Ark 2 ?
The whole game pauses while the host is offline
No
Just need shadowmanes and a yut
No, but I've heard it can go into the tek cave but not the sanctuary. Not tried myself.
Can anybody PLEASE help me with my game crashing every time I deploy my carcha
it's a vanilla INI option now, used to be an S+ thing but it was integrated into vanilla
No
Does anyone know how to update ark version using pteradactyl panel? I can't figure out how to work steamcmd in there
Hola busco con gente quien jugar tengo 13 años
in his mutation videos syntac mentioned that if a creature goes above level 450 or something like that the creature will dissappear when uncryoed, is that still a thing?
Yeah but on official you can't get them higher as they finally update so that you can't level higher and if you breed it up it will despawn when hatched, gen1 and 2 dino can get up to lvl 500 tho
Yeah that's official he's stuff all unofficial so you can't use his gameplay as reference but his guides mostly follow official rules I think
You can get like 1 billion on unofficial lol
ohh so its okay on singleplayer?
hey uh tell me if this is the wrong channel for this but i can't load ark at all? it crashes after 5 secondsish (switch player) can anyone help? thanks :33
not wrong channel, i dont think i can help, is this first time you are starting ark? if its aberration in radiated zone i know why
no, i've played it for a while now, it just isn't working suddenly. it's on the original map i think and it crashes at the showing who developed it thingy :DD ty anyway if you cant help!
well good luck, maybe good solutions
thank you! :DD
What would y’all say is the hardest to raid location in all of ark?
Yeah I think so no cap
thanks!
Depends on or offline
ah thank you! :DD
But tbh everything offline is ridable or online if you have enough people so there isn't really a "hardest" just "hard" and "easy" or "not too bad"
Hi, is there any color combination that can make R-gigas body real white and not an odd grey?
I think they all have that tint as a part of being r
is there any mod which can fix that?
The client auto updates, the servers do not (maybe official ones do?)
with no error messages we can only guess what the reason is
Also
Does anyone know of a mod or server setting to zoom out more in third person. playing a personally run unofficial server, open to mods, server settings, etc whatever can make ti work.
Might be some general dino recolor thing but I don't think so
You can use fov in setting, if it's not enough you can overcap fov by editing an ini file and further overcap by swapping the way the game handles X/Y fov
How do I get my dino out of the ground? It just keeps on falling. lol
Wow that sounds like a lot of faffing about. There's no like server setting to just set zoom out limit to a certain value?
nvm it died
Simple way is the fov slider right side of setting
F
Ah also, enable/disable the 3rd camera offset so that when ur not holding anything camera is behind you instead of at the side (can't remember on or off it's the good one lol)
What are some caves in the island that i can use carnos in it
They're not great I wouldn't recommend it
DC'd in the middle of battle.
GG
is carcha rare in lost island
uhhh i just made a reaper queen fall into the element river accidently
does it hurt her?
oh nvm shes out
Everything other than structure and fed suit gets damage
oh
I have mate boosted and high levels
I just wanna try
They're pretty much a reptilian version of the thylacoleo
Not exactly, Thyla bleed is actually strong. 👀
Just' a Reptilian
Reptilian, the difference is just 5 seconds
Good luck then
Or 5% precent
Thyla bleeds faster which makes it a lot better.
Anyways, how much effectiveness would I lose on a Desmo tame without feeding a Moschops to it?
Yeah don't underestimate thyla it's one of the best dino
Yes, i know, it's one of my favourites,
But i wanna try something new
Barry are some of the best for caves
Tbh for island caves these days I just use Tek rip
Damn, since i got pc i liked the thyla, doesn't mean i hate the barry, but i got bored
Can i beat the tek cave without tek suit
Prob shouldn't attempt it without full tek. lol
Btw, how do you get better quality tek items? 
Im doing it on gamma, so im beating the bosses on gamma wich only onlocks the tek leggings
Tek items dont have quality. like normal ones
I usually run it on foot for the thrill
Easily run velo stalk mission gen2 but for top tier is purple drop on extinction
osds
I don't have paid DLCs. lol
They do have quality just not grade
Ggs u can't then
thats what i meant
Might add the upgrade station mod then. 
Flak is better than Tek other than specific situations and in base anyways
Oooo
So fed suit/prim Tek is fine dw about it too much it will save you a lot of resources
Oki oki
?
For example my fully capped suit would cost me 10k+ poly and like 40k ingots yo repair lmao
wtf
Flak is way better lol
what kind of bp did you choose wtf
500 armor 1k dura minimum I'd used but preferably 1.2k dura 600 armor BP
Cap 714.6 armor 1500 dura
Flak can cap 2086 dura 525 armor or something but those BP you can't get anymore
Flak goes up to like 1k on armor tho. 
So best normally would be 496 armor 1.8k dura you can get
Do you even need to worry bout dur on PvE? lol
Unofficial only official has lower clamps on my unofficial my Tek had 1.3k+ armor lmao, dura cap same as official tho but armor makes almost no difference after about 200 armor
Ohhhh
only on unoffi
I c
No but I can tank hits from titans with my Tek and I only need 1 set of flak for a foot gen1 alpha XD
Lmao
It's just for collection/flex for the Tek it's really impractical and too scary to transfer to gen2 on PvE, pvp it's useful but it's all duped anyways so it doesn't matter, flak tho on PvE is always good for a lot of dura and it will save you so I'd recommend focusing on high dura flak bps
Tek is just for fun when you don't have anything else to do
I'm collecting every non useless BPs, so it should be fine. 👀
Yeah honestly for this game I recommend playing as efficiently as physically possible or you'll get depression about your stuff lol
Guys I need advice, my character lvl 94 was on a server that got deleted. The server is gone where my character was. So my question is is there a way to get my character back
Unfortunately I don't think so.
NOOOO 😭😭😭
Hopefully I'm wrong tho. lol
What server was it? Some servers, like Arkpocalypse servers, wipe regularly
It was on a small tribe server 45 rag
Customer support for the character loss ^ , #server-reports for the server issues
Thnx G
SmallTribes45 is The Island and has been for a long time. Are you sure you remember the number correctly?
Ye I remember bro, I even asked my friend and he said the same name
46 is ragnarok. I'd just try logging on to it to make sure, before filing a ticket
What category shud I pick for my problem
Game play,report aubuse,General, etc
Someone named "WER" has been playing on 46
Gameplay prob.
Aight thnx
Can i do tek cave without tek suit
Im doing it on gamma, so im beating the bosses on gamma wich only onlocks the tek leggings
So whats the best dino to tame?
dodo
Thyla
Baryonyx
Rex
Argy
Depends on your opinion
okay
Dodo duh
they have different roles, so depending on what you want to do, different dinos are best
Just tame everything honestly. lol
Can i do tek cava without tek suit
Im doing it on gamma, so im beating the bosses on gamma wich only onlocks the tek leggings
rockdrakes
shadowmanes
bloodstalkers
My experience with the carcha is that it's bugged. The 150 I found got stuck on a rock and wouldn't move, wouldn't attack, wouldn't eat. I had to kill it in the end.
Better than Giga. not biased btw

That’s amazing dude I’ll have to look for one soon
Haven’t played in a long while
Even if it’s close to giga it’s a great medium
They kinda buggy since they are new, but devs are actively fixing the issues.
Alr that’s cool
I’m just happy to see a new Dino that can be a threat instead of the giga spam
the giga is better if you just want upfront damage
but the charchar is better at killing sprees
Is it a knock out tame?
I think it does a bleed once it enters its rampage mode, and that completely shreds even gigas
God damn
Just don't believe everything the rock drake girl says
no, you have to feed it some treats and then have some father-son bonding time
I recommend watching raasclark, his vids are pretty reliable
Carcha has some serious daddy issues. 😭
I usually look at whatever syntac does and I do it myself
that’s gotten me killed multiple times but hey it’s fun
syntac is pretty good too
Syntac made a short about Carcha, might as well watch that instead imo.
Anyways thanks for the info dudes
Alr I’ll look it up, thanks!
What's the keybind for Desmo night vision on PC? Wiki doesn't mention it.
Nvm, it's in the racial wheel where the life steal is. lol
is it just me or are the mini bosses on fjordur not dropping any loot other than element and their relics, along with the ocational carchar saddle
Seems normal
i have fought hati and scol 2 times, beyla and steinbjorn once and all i got was a 120 element, their relics, and one carchar saddle from steinbjorn. i used to get like 5 other items along with the element and relics when i killed one of them
Hey guys do u think there will be x5 this weekend on smalltribes?
I’m having trouble loading my ark with mods and I can’t find which mod is the problem because they all run alone just fine but when I put them all together I crash and it restarts my pc upon loading the game does anyone know a possible solution?
I have a problem with the official ark servers, I don't get any, does anyone know how to solve it?
Where can you tame a desmodus?
In caves on Fjordur. They are hanging on the ceiling.
reccomended
waterfall cave
dvargheim
workable
lava cave
emerald trench
dont
Swamp cave
Labyrinth cave
or the tiny island on the left of the map
thats swamp cave
the abandoned building
Literally any cave. lol
Maybe you don't give them long enough in between commands to spawn
Until one spawns
I love making herbivore vs carnivore fights
Is there a way to make carnivores fight other carnivores?
Ugh it's such a pain in the ass to get the effectiveness up on a Desmo.
is there any way to buy just aberation or it only available in the bundle now? (steam)
only available in the bundle
does leveling up a certain stat on a magmasaur help it smelt metal faster
no
ok thx
that sorta sucks :/
true lol
yo whats the best way to farm flint in fjordur mass amounts of flint
Does anyone know how to make legit modded caves for unofficial servers?
Can you get a saddle bp for the carcharo? Haven’t seen one yet
yes got one first try killing bee boss on fjordur when it dropped
When is the turkey trial event coming?
The new update is not showing up for me
in steam
anyone know a 3 to 5 man server thats like 3 to 10 x pc and thats no mods on pc?
What is the solution
The new update is not showing up for me
in steam
Are the new fjord dinos usefull?
i suppose still not xbox however
i would assume so, afaik configs are kept consistent between versions aside from a few of them being broken on steam
Being able to access them, however, is a different story
any ark 100x server is there
Other than Fenrir, yes.
on my fenrir what is the +1 in light blue under his name
Prob the ice armor thing? Idk
i went to lost island for more charcar spots
fjordurs didnt have any and i wasnt checking the volcano
and a giga i forgot about was still taking up a spawn 😭
and i couldnt locate my attack squad theyyre probably just cryod but still
Balheim is like 60 Celsius usually. lol
thats great and all but i dont go by C
140 Fahrenheit
thats hot LOL only a lil
A lil
ive had worse but on NMS wise lol
Dunno what Ghillie you need, prob mw is enough. 
😭
im a gamer that knows most by abbreviations its not my fault lol
thats only the sulfur fields and caves
Oh well
Funny thing is that sulfur field is like 70% of the island iirc
idk i havent explored that much
funfact there once was a giga near the tar pits
Yeah Giga has a spawn there afaik
i left it went back eventually and guess what respawns instead
Carcha?
for some reason since lost island stuff can respawn out of render
no better and it was prior to them released
lol
ill give u another guess
No need
alpha basilisk
you have no idea how long it took with my bat LOL
i believe the xp boost went over or was fixing to something like that
ye but what happens if its real low hp and u need to back off but cant???
I find Desmo kinda lackluster move speed wise 
if ur low i mean
You don't get low with war pig
i have more mobility with the bat then i did an argy so i prefer the bat
I gave up hope bout the Better Dino making compatibility with Desmo
Can't use the modded Reins with it
u sure do i mean sure i havent faught an alpha with em just yet but u can get really low with em lol
besides its SP and i dont tame the highest u can
Why not? It's easy to to tame max level things
and no its not dif 1 its 0.2
oof
dif 0.2 stinky
Desmos need fixing imo
i used to play on 0.1
Getting 1-3% effectiveness for sucking on Moschops is screwed
but it randomly set my default as 0.2 instead
when i first started the default for me was0.1 and randomly became0.2
lol
desmodus doesnt need a fix its not even broken for me wise i just ran in with blood in hotbar and tamed mine
i dislike lower difficulties since i like higher stat
It's not about the taming tho
Getting it to high effectiveness takes like 2 hours alone
well correction he might be broken since my bat at times takes forever to drink the bloodpacks in inventory after being so low for like 2 minutes
i watched a vid on that kinda idr what they used truthfully but i dont think it was a moschops
Dodorex comments are flooded with Moschops
im rewatching it hang on
and the comments arent always helpful ive been told dont always trust em
Oh you need the Moschops to have high HP for it to be better according to the wiki
yep the person put packs on it and its almost i think a 7k hp moschops
Well duh you have to put packs in it for it to do it
But yeah, gotta level my Moschops then
Also idk if they patched them or sum but I can't go invis in caves, keeps saying it can only be done at night 
You are supposed to be able to go invis in caves without it being night outside
I got told that i need to use ark manager server to play with friends alone not with other players or something like that but if u open the game theres a "Host/Local" button
does it mean i can host there or what?
You can host a server there and invite your friends
be warned though, you will be limited to a specific distance, no one can get farther away from the host than about 200 m
Its built like that, same as scorched ab and ext
sp option there but it is also able to do i think non dedicated with some tethering
atleast going off xbox version prob a little different on steam
Why doesn’t my trapped carchar eat the corpses I give it
I haven't been able to get one to eat while trapped either. I've been taming them the fun way lol
Anyone have the link to the switch discord server
someone on dododex says if it doesnt leave render and come back and it should its buggy if trapped
So I have to leave the tender distance?
It sniffs the corpses, but doesn’t eat them
it worked for someone else as well
conversation above it
beartraps just do issues
any tips for getting an insane amount of paste? beaver dams is not going to cut it
megatherium and doed with a chemistry station
megatherium
swamp cave
OK. That was my guess. A frog in the swamp cave isn't better? If it can survive.
I think it's just preference. I personalldy dont care about the stone grind since i usually have my servers on 1/4th XP.
stack size is also important since megatherium can max out quickly
if im just playing with my friends should i make a dedicated server or non dedicated session
What's the best way to level a Phoenix stats?
Hey just a general question Is anyone else forced to let the carcar out of the gates that you have it trapped in just for it to actually eat on PS4?
I was told the Salt Caves are the best singleplayer base location for Valguero, is that true or is there a better one?
Depends what you mean by better, I live in the very top right of the map inside what looks like an empty volcano and I love my spot
Top left*
“Better” in this instance would mean more resources nearby, powerful dinos, and overall ease of access
Well I have access to metal, stone, wood, an oil rig outside my door and a bit of a lengthy irrigation system. I'm always seeing yutys and gigas as I live in the snow
I haven't seen someone mention the spot you're talking about yet, I thought it would be more like the Island where there's really only a couple “good” base locations
Honestly I didn't know my spot existed till I found it and it was empty, massive areas which is mostly flat. Literally just finished Alpha after working out of this area. Take a look as it is nice a quiet for me with no random bases close
2 Sentences is an essay to you?
What map do you play on
Sounds good! Is it noticeable or will I need to find co-ords?
Because I normally go to Ragnarok to find them can't get them to spawn on any other for the life of me
I live on that on a cluster and they spawn in giga spots but That's why I go to the rag I managed to spend almost 2 hours over 10 deaths just to get a 290
Best way to explain it, fly to the top left area of the map and you can find what looks like a hollow frozen volcano and inside will be an oil vein. I'll get on after this update copying finishes and give cords
π~π you cannot pay me to go and tame another one to get a better male I physically refuse to
Give it a good 30 minutes I think that should give time for stuff to spawn I do know the three locations I think I have them written down somewhere
how can I find higher level creatures in single player? the difficulty level is at 1.0, I tried entering 2.0 but it just goes back to 1.0
80 80
43 95
18 66
These are the coordinates for the three giga locations on fjordur
For whoever needs em
Thanks for the help! I guess I'll need to switch out my Pteranodon for an Argentavis
anyone know how to fix connection timeout when joining non dedicated or official servers
Now today I get to spend all day and probably tomorrow raising up a baby carcar who looks like it has a carno head
But triku if you live on a cluster I suggest going to rag it's probably the best I seem to find them very easily out in the desert can't seem to find him in the highlands
All good, I wish I had known about this area at the start, and I forgot there's a nice little deposit of crystal by the oil vein too
How long ago was the wipe?
I've been looking for a good location for so long, since I didn't want to have to move everything if I settled down right away
Hopefully I won't freeze to death lol
You can try #bug-reports, but on sp if it is not in render, it won't spawn.
Give it like maybe another hour and then just make sure you don't load any of the chunks that have the giga spawns on them cuz I noticed things won't spawn if you're in render distance
can i change hatchery range in s+ in the game user settings?
If you can kill some wolves or mammoths for pelt in the tundra zone and make some fur for the journey
Oop
If you're not in that spot, the unrendered area goes into stasis.
True because you're planning on a single player it's different if it's an actual server
Mhmm
Completely forgot about that to be honest
Good luck and I pray to God that it's not on lava Island cuz you're going to have a hell with the magmas
I'll definitely make sure to do that, thanks for the info :)
But bee if you're still here I do have a question about the carcars
I can try
The carcars every time I put them in traps they refuse to eat in the kind of just stare at us even if we come up and stuff the food in their face they kind of just stand there and will refuse to eat unless we let him out of the trap
Happy to help, I've love Val, my first world and Ark experience. If to the Island to start the main story
Yeah, traps are buggy. If you do need to trap it, I'd recommend making the trap larger (so it can't get stuck) and using a flyer carrying a dodo to keep it aggroed, then bring the corpse into the trap, and bring the flyer away.
You're possibly making the trap too tight
Yessir
Quick question, since it's located in a cold/snowy area, won't that mean you could never wear Riot Armor around your base?
-that might be a problem if there's Gigas around o-o
I've used multiple traps really big ones too and some even giga traps that don't require gates and it just bugs out really fast I've even used some reaper Queen traps too and those are relatively large
Riot increases heat, you should theoretically be fine
That's why I mentioned bringing the corpses into the trap, instead of outside of it
Tryed that it just stands there
Either make it larger or don't use a trap then I'd guess.
All right also are the crystal wyverns still bugged in the terminal?
Leaving render and returning sometimes fixes it
No, kill stuff in the area, go to the other swpans, kill stuff there, and keep going. Using the command is actually not the best way to go about forcing low spawn weight dinos to spawn.
No, you kind of live in for, but you won need riot gear close to your base, you can switch into it to fight stuff, but my best advice for you is tame an army of Pt's and set them all to follow your on lowest and fly to and into the Wyvern trench and grab an egg and fly for your life. Make sure the pt's are set to attack target and they will attack the wyverns that come for you and basically become sacrifice for you to get your first wyvern
Live in fur I meant*
why is it that when I try to create a non dedicated server or play single player the game crashes (im running it without battleye for unofficial severs)
Post the first 5 lines of the crash message in #bobs-with-probs.
That seems like it's out of my game experience, I'm not good enough at ARK to be able to pull that off lol
Couldn't I try to get Ascendant Riot armor which would have better hypothermic isolation?
There is no crash message the game just freezes and I have to hard restart my pc
Do you have mods
The ones from the workshop yea
Sounds like you're not letting the game load. Mods can take a while.
oh I see
Still doesnt explain why I cant tab out
If you have a large mod list or large mods in general, it will take a while.
Because the game is loading.
It essentially freezes the screen while it's loading.
hi
Oh shit thanks
does anyone want to play im on ps5 but am looking for someone to play with
@keen stump #735196277221883964
As for game experience, I had been playing for 2 months when I did it myself, I'm a cautious gamer especially when it comes to losing dinos lol. Honestly I thought it would be harder than it was, you just look for an opening dly in, get off, grab egg, get on argie, fly for your life and not look back. If you want some tips to help confidence with the game, look up Syntac, TeacherGamerToo and Nooblets as they've helped me learn a lot in the game
Anyone down to vc and sort of help me through a few things
??? where is that
Did you get the role?
ya
Get the ps role at #role-assignment
then just look for it
I'll try that once I get my base established, I've never had a Wyvern in my 5+ years of playing
found it thx
I started in June lol, watch those guys and they will help dude. It's just a case of getting confidence in yourself 🙂
I'll get to it then :)
Thank you again for helping me!
Anyone down to vc and sort of help me through a few things
No problem Nokia, good luck on your ark adventures!
So uhm i need a bit of help first i tried to join my friend in ark then said lost/timedout connect to host or something like that THEN i couldnt open my game anymore THEN i tried veryfing but its stuck at 0% THEN i restarted and my pc took 20 mins to boot up whats happening?
Is my pc dying or what
and uh why is it still stuck at 0%
Bruh can you only mine crystal with metal picks
bro its been 40 min and no one wants to play oof
No. But metal pick has more efficiency.
biggest mistake of my life was using stone pick on crystals
Worth it if you don’t have a spyglass yet tbh
That 2 crystal isn't a huge deal. 
playing without boosted weight stat feels so much more tedious, makes me appreciate high weight a lot more
When’s community crunch out
Uh.. anyone that knows how to get fast help with BattlEye issues? o.o
The issues started during Halloween event by saying:
"Update failed (1, 35). Please check your internet connection and/or firewall"
The game has still booted up and ran fine on official servers even tho I got that message.
The new problem is this:
Note: File blocks can be ignored if they don't cause problems with the game.
[INFO] Blocked loading of file: "C:\Windows\System32\windows.storage.dll".
Are servers down? I can’t join any
I keep getting stuck at joining
I got the update on xbox, but some are saying windows 10 isn't popping up the update on pc for ark. Any troubleshooting tips?
I just got disconnected too and can’t join
Well.. I guess the File block issues was fixed by uninstalling BattlEye, reboot the PC, reinstall BattlEye.. but the update fail is still happening..
What is the best ptero food to tame
Mutton or prime meat.
anyone got any servers i could hop on w?
anyone know about an app/website that has all of the dinos color regions and tou can change them to any color you like to preview what it looks like?
Is a bug repellant mandatory for taming a mantis or could I have a ghillie armor set?
can you eat element?
Yes, you can. If added into a custom recipe.
Drop it deep in the water
so i can make element soup
What soup do you need again for amarg
cailen
or broth of enlightment
Ok thankss
one or the other
What happened to your spino…
cailen and fria
its a sarco lol
is there a big difference between ark downloaded throuhg epic games instead of steam?
Is anyone else server not work ie drops on fjordur
achievements and not being able to directly join friends through the friend list probably
epic is inferior
i know, but steam limits my download speed by so much
get better internet then
just tamed a pulmonoscorpius for my first tame on ragnarok. feeling good
they are epic
its not my internet, steam gives me like 6 mbps and epic gives me like 150 mbps
i named him polio and he chased a phiomia around for a very long time
last time i named a dino it was pary 37 and it ran into the swamp and got killed by a kapro
i also ran away from a tex t rex that was right next to me
dont go too far away so you can tame it
im level like 14
you level up fast when collecting animals
sabertooth just ruined my taming effectiveness
goodbye level 155 argy
argy ended up as 115 so it wasnt that bad considering it had 19 hp left
I’m in scorched earth water doesn’t exist😭
can anyone on windows 10 tell me if i can play on my old xbox server i cant find it and i know what one it is mine is a xbox official server i can get on it on the xbox but not pc how do i fix this
can only play on servers that have crossplay enabled, if your server isn’t showing up it isn’t enabled.
ty
found a 106 rex should i take it with my iggy or should i get darts first?
Light pats aren’t spawning in the lunar cave on fjordur
Now I gotta carry torches with me everywhere
import from abb?
Do you have a trap for the Rex?
bulbdog should spawn on valguero and i wasnt planning on using a trap for the rex since the iggy is faster
No, it just means your egg is dying
I wouldn’t recommend it but yeah
Check the creature’s lineage
Aka show ancestors
That's all you get
The rest you have to figure out yourself
i.e. what stat the mutation is in
Im looking for someone that would be down to play ark modded. dm me
did ark make a update on fixing the bluescreen?
You have 1 mutation
Have they fixed carchar spawns on sp?
they fixed the issue of them disappearing on genesis but not any spawning issues
rip
I can’t find a light pet in the fjordur lunar cave
So I used the admin gun to look for one
And they’re spawning above the cave but not in the water
no
Unless you use admin cheats
if you’re in singleplayer you can change maturation speed and imprint intervals
in the settings before you join a map
under advanced, “baby mature speed” and “baby cuddle interval multiplier”
import from valguero
Too lazy to, would rather spawn one in ngl
might have to cryopod them for them to update or they might not update at all, I don’t remember
better to import then cheat
Cheating easier
I just found a level 90 Carcha randomly. 
Kill it
You should be taming 135s at the lowest
Bet, let me get my semi perfect deinonychus squad
Skill issue
Says the guy with Dragon Ball pfp 😭
Dragon Ball goated
Idk what you’re on about
This guy knows what’s up
W
up for longer timer, down for shorter timer
Anyone down to vc and sort of help me through a few things (NAW)
how do you change perspective on pc?
scroll wheel for third person, K for orbit cam
the wheel doesnt work
The server you’re playing on might have 3rd person disabled
no crunch eh .... figures
anyone remember when they cared? crunches were on thursdays between 3-5 like clockwork...... rip
I mean, for them it’s like 4:50 pm
ayy there it is #announcements
well yes, but crunches used to be thursdays always between 1-3pm their time. You could set a date on it
To move my tames from gen 2 to another map do I have to put them in the ark data thingy or can I just keep them in my inventory?
and stop defending them, there is a LOT of structure that needs to be redone within. That's the problem with games nowadays all you bleep millennials etc have become complacent
if you’re in singleplayer you have to use ark data, if you’re on a server you can keep ‘em in your inventory
Ok thanks
Thanks, I hate it
it’s a community crunch bro, it ain’t that deep
Is this a troll post or are you actually being serious about the darn millennials?
millennials was a troll the rest was serious
ark2 gonna be like atlas 😂
I have nothing but guns my tames which are in cryopods and ammo and a tek canteen on me, it wants me to drop stuff before I can go
Can you not bring tek stuff?
you can, make sure to drop any dino trophies (rex arms, spino sails, etc.) element, boss heads
I litteraly only have that stuff on me
13 cryopods my rifle my net gun my canteen and my shotgun
I mean, you can try uploading the canteen, if it doesn’t let you then that’s what the issue is
anyone wanna play offical
ok ty
Ok I’ll try that
I am on official if that changes anything
Aimbot: survival evolved ;p
Is there a way as a server admin to find abandoned player buildings to clean them up?
I'm wanting to get rid of some old foundations that might have been placed and forgotten about
I fight more hackers than actual pvp now days haha. It’s like running around switching helmets
If they no longer play, cheat destroytribestructures while looking at their building. Use cheat destroytribedinos for their dinos. You can even use cheat destroytribeplayers for the characters.
If you want to destroy just that area, you can either use the destroy mode on the admin blink rifle (cheat gfi blinkrifle 1 0 0), or you can use cheat destroymytarget (which destroys one at a time)
Mining burned trees, depending on the map. Or an indy forge
Refining forges while cooking metal, industrial forges
It feels like alot but it's worth it
I'm more hoping for a way of finding buildings that were left behind. Is there a way to get like a heat map of player structures or something? Specifically I just need a way to find stuff that is lost and forgotten without hoping to stumble upon it
If you were to teleport to Vannaland S - W and then walk inland to the north, you'll run into them
If you don't see any, head up the mountain path. I think their actual spawn point might be located up there but they quickly move south after spawning in
Or they have a few spawn points, hard to tell
I'm really not sure tbh. You could check https://ark.wiki.gg, just search "commands"
Tips on taming desmodus?
Could also just turn on structure decay
Am i wrong for feeding my dodos to a wild giga
Harvest the burned trees around the volcano on rag
Well. That’s pretty much it unless you get an indy forge
Wood gathering creature like mamoth and industrial forge
Is there something wrong with stryders on Aberration on certain parts of the map? I was in the bed of one, left for 10 hours, and I come back to see I'm no longer in the bed but on the ground. I have dinosaur gates around the stryder before I left and if it was a player I would have either been stripped of my stuff or killed
Do you guys think that they will release a physical version for switch ark?
hey uh i'm new to ark ..anybody wanna join a server with me and show me around and what all the heck i can do-
(i play on switch)
Try double tapping F
@hearty steeple
The ARK Switch official Discord can be found here: https://discord.gg/Q5E9F3bVfC
ARK Switch players will always be welcome in this discord too!
You are still welcome here, but that is the discord for the Switch version of Ark.
Is there one for switch?
Oh thanks didn’t know what it was
Can someone please help me? Im trying to get my game to load so i can play but it keeps crashing me
yes theres one for switch
Post your crash logs and tag @placid sundial he's good at looking crashes solutions.
Copy paste it
It wouldnt let me unless i can access a file somewhere? Even then tho i have to tomorrow. Im currently in bed
Thats typical
It will be in your ark game folder, just do it when you got time. He might take a look at it
And no im not dising console lol. I have 3 xboxs and my ark always crashes on them. Okie thanks!
Check what?
You can always use battlemetric to check your server uptime
I'm on steam BTW, I cant look at console server
Shit I can't post battlemetric link
You just have to google it
bruh just spent at least half an hour shooting tranq darts at a Rex while dodging it and it just ran out to the sea and swam deep in there and won’t come out so now I can’t knock it out lmaoo
You need your server ip for that, maybe try use the server names
Use Filter
Choose map type
It will narrow down
Official or unofficial?
I would help you try the search but I'm not at home atm
Nice
They both function differently
Yutty is a support type, it can buff the Rex's for extra resistant and buff melee. It's not meant to be a dps dino
Better not
What happens when you pick up the body and try to get it to do the sniffing animation
Is it agro'd on anything?
i have found the giga LOL
Is there a way to get pregnant by a reaper queen and blocking her with foundations or wpuld she despawn when i go
Any one wanna start on a new world?/ With steam(private world)
do gigas take lava damage or am i wasting my time
they do but keep in mind they have around 80k health when wild
so i wasnt wasting my time then thats good i already gave up i cant keep it interested long enough lol
hmmmmmm im looking at wiki it cant damage metal correct????
also the page says ? for saddle levelEquipment
Giganotosaurus Saddle (Level ?)
a wiki say it wise
i say a wiki because ive entered the old one before or whatever so its depending which im viewing
something had a moved page
make sure you’re using the one that’s actually being supported https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/ARK_Survival_Evolved_Wiki
that one is no longer supported and should not be considered reliable
i only really was in it to see about the lava damage i saw u can trick em to drown instead
my goal is carchar
Any idea about how to disable cryosickness on singleplayer?
Is anyone else on PlayStation experiencing game crashes
You mean host connection timeouts, or blue screens?
I was on Fjorn and tp back to my base and my game crashed. Its done it like three times in one day
Yes, it is common.
Just wanted to check. I thought it was odd
Try playing gen 2. 🤣🤣🤣
Bruh
I want gen 2
It’s on sale apparently
Is using Best Eggs! Mod cheating?
It adds a best egg maker
That you put in it fertilized eggs than it chooses the best stats from the nearest ancestors
Hey I havnt played ark since 2017 but I'm looking for a friendly populated pve server that has a little faster harvest rate etc. but nothing too crazy. thanks
Can anyone assist? I have just installed s+ tek transmitters on Fjordur, but I don't know if I need to install them on each realm to locate the dinos in that particular realm.
what do baby wyverns eat?
Wyvern milk
Milk.
only milk?
Yes
Mhm.
oh boi
Meat
Hardest choice of my life
Im deleting ark
I wiping everything
There is no way that my 32 gb USB can hold all the maps and stuff
Rip ark
BusTA 2021-2022
pls fix hexa store 😦 crash any open store
quit playing after gen2 dropped and was curious what new map had the new creatures like "carcharodontosaurus"
every map with gigas on it
wtf is that name btw
my mind almost popped after seeing it in the menu
it shares spawn with gigas
eh about yes
should have been cerato fr
more to giga strength tho
wild stats or tamed stats
difference?
never had a giga
i like Li
li?
Lost Island
ah that was the one with the creature poll right?
ark ini pls
wut
maybe
it was like cerato, a big monkey, and some flying rat
i just LOVE the sinomacrops
shoulder mount+
similar wild stats, car charger has 70k base wild health compared to gigas 80k base wild health, health and melee percent after tame is also about the same, as far as damage goes:
280% 0% imprint r-giga: 1411 damage to mannequin
270% 0% imprint carcha: 684 damage to mannequin
270% + 30 stacks: 1043 damage to mannequin
270% + 100 stacks: 1881 damage to mannequin
wow something that really rivals the giga
cool
wait so the little flying rat thing won? 😭
wait so did they just add the top 3 from the poll then?
last is the amargasaurus
sauropod with mortar spikes
💀
fire, ice and armor break
wtf has happened to this game bruh
wdym
what dino has fire/ice mortar spikes what ever tf that means 💀😭
freeze your enemys or burtn them to crisps
neither is a wyvern nor a stryder -_-
what is a stryder again?
minecraft is all i can think of from that name 💀
oh the big horse robot thing
yeah
tbh i hated both genesis maps too
never played em
🗿
aberration (and MAYBE extinction?) is the only dlc map worth buying to be fair imo
though you cant even buy them separately aymore iirc
It’s hard to even compete without gen 2 anymore. Gotta have it.
every dlc map after scorched and abb did that
im not playing multiplayer so irrelevant for me
same
quit tbh
extinction? only way to get element reliably for a while and managarmrs
gen 1? bloodstalkers
gen 2? do i have to say anything
Not like gen 2. The amount of resources, coupled with stryders, the loot drops and the mission buffs is just insane.
i hope we get a abberation and scorched earth remaster in ark 2 ngl
scorched had a great concept executed terribly 💀
and imo ab was just the best map/environment with good gameplay changes/mixups (i also just dont trust wildcard to make any new unique dlc maps anymore)
hi guys anyone from eu wanna play
can you even play co-op without tether?
?
tether?
chaining you with the other player
wont let you leave them
oh that
if you play on a server, yes
lags anyways 💀
for me not at all
whats crashing 70 times instead of 50 going to matter tbh
thanks
for me it rarely crashes evr
wild
oml
i have to go through the 9hour experience of setting the singleplayer settings again 💀

in there carchadontosaurus in lost island
Yes
yes i just saw one today
ok thanks
np
do you need dlc maps for the engrams on singleplayer?
like incubator and tek rep as example
yes but for example li gives them to you ff
ff?
forfree
im on ps5 😔
welp
running at a clean what feels like 15fps

Looking for Rex saddle/bp for trade Na cross pve
Should I get Ark on switch?
so what do I do if the artifact is inside a wall?
cry
Ghost if your are in SP.
One message removed from a suspended account.
Sounds like a skill issue, best advice would be to cry.
Define skill issue
Making excuses for not being able to get to an artifact, smh.
So what was my excuse?
(I’m trolling so don’t take it seriously lmao)
Nah, you have to follow through. It's annoying when people end things with "chill, it's just a joke".
[Redacted]
does inbreeding have any bad effects?
No
I feel bad
Am I A Bad Person ?
If anything it’s good, you want to breed as much as you can, get as many mutations as possible the single out the ones with the best stats
ez
would love to know why my tickets of these cheaters just get ignored when i have submitted 8 files of legitimate proof
just the same automated response BS
terrible enforcement team...
hire me ill do your job for u for free shit
When will be the next turkey trial event?
Charcar vs giga who wins?
wild? maybe giga, cause it has more hp and can bleed too if wild.
depends
Think Char is better once tamed cuz of the stacking dmg buff?
I’m playing on ragnarok and need an ocean platform but don’t have the engram, what’s the easiest way to get it? Don’t know if I have genesis so can I even go on the servers?
Yes it is, it’s on the 22nd and lasts until december 7th
Learn it on Lost Island.
Aight thanks, never switched servers before so I’m a bit scared 😁 I read that you can get the engrams from all maps on Lost Island, is that true?
Does anyone know why does unclaimed baby Tek parasaurs when killed and not harvested cease existing from the world
No
can you reset your characters level but keep your ascension?
they get absorbed by the ark and get made into new tek dinos
Mindwipe tonic
that lets you repick your stats
i want to make my character level 1 again for when i swap maps
Then no
aw :(
Remember you would then lose all your engrams and some engrams are map specific, so you could lose some helpful items depending on where u go
you can get any engram on any map if your player has been there i think
but i can also make abb stuff and i made my character for the island yesterday
Nah u have to get the engrams while on that map, if you take a mindwipe then u got to go back and do it again. Eg, egg incubator isn't on the island, got to go to Genesis
Even the nets? I had a friend that couldn't get them. He had to buy gen
They're definitely on LI
does ldl server will open transfer with other ldl server ?
all non-tekgrams are on lost island and fjordur (and gen2) just make sure you change the filter as if you don't have all DLCs installed you only see island (and free map) engrams
the entire point of the ldl servers is to have limited downloads
Ok thank you!
I’m sick of getting knocked out by troodons and them ripping my armor they should just ignore armor bro so I can die
is there a cooldown for getting pregnant? or can i do it right after giving birth
What is the difference between a sponsored mod and a non-sponsored mod? Will they be added to ARK or something?
there is a cooldown
k thanks.
related to mating interval?
can you grapple onto wild quetzals?
Yes, but once it starts fleeing the grappling line will break
can you land on it or will you fall off?
so i should just use a net
you will probaby bounce on its back
Will fall off
If you have another flyer, a method that use to work is that ride your flyer, get close the quetz, jump off, grapple to your flyer, take your first shot at the quetz, and then whistle your flyer to attack the quetz (so that it follows the quetz), and then whistle passive when you are close enough for the next shot. You can also just use the first part, then climb back your flyer, follow the quetz until it calms down, and repeat, but you will probably need more tranqs due to taking more time between shots.
Also, back in the day, I would tame a low level quetz first, then build a quetz trap on it, and use that to tame higher level quetzals. Not sure if that is still a viable option...not tried it for quiet a while.
Still viable
yeah from what i understood that and tapejara on passenger were most popular solo before net gun
Eat rare flowers and have the Quetz chase you into a trap
Rare flowers dont work on quetz
Also that ^
That blows
How do i find people to play with in a pve / pvp server? I have my own gportal server but my irl friend is on vacation for a few months and i dont want to play solo
@silent matrix Goto #role-assignment, pick your platform, and then you can advertise in the correct server ad channel.
Im not trying to advertise, im trying to find people to play with
