[acoustic knoll]

Like the last one was

[slate widget]

it was standalone before its already on steam

[acoustic knoll]

Oh

[subtle sigil]

sooo, we were using the portals in fjodur, but my friends bat disappeared, has this happened to anyone?

[elfin hearth]

I haven't run into or heard of any issues with teleporting causing dinos to disappear. Can you describe what happened? @subtle sigil

[balmy ember]

when im breeding my rock drakes the egg says 104 so is their a chance of mutations or no?

[elfin hearth]

104 what?

[balmy ember]

lvl

like that is the base level

[elfin hearth]

Generally, mutations are possible, sure

[balmy ember]

and the mutated would be 106

no like when the bases breed (both lvl 104) and the egg comes out it says lvl 104 is their a chance for mutation if the egg says lvl 104?

or does the egg have to say lvl 106?

[elfin hearth]

Oh, I would focus on stat increases over level, as you'll have a clearer picture
I assume you're talking about the Incubator or something, btw

[balmy ember]

yes

well their has to be a level change for a mutation to appear correct?

[elfin hearth]

If I'm understanding your situation correctly, yes

[balmy ember]

okay thanks

[tough yarrow]

That's why you would ideally want to use parents with the same level and stats before trying mutations, it makes it much easier.

[balmy ember]

i am

and i got my first mutation i got a oxygen mutation lol

[tough yarrow]

Ewww, bad mutation

[uneven wyvern]

F

[austere remnant]

Man Andrewsarchus is such a good fit for Scorched Earth

It’s like they were made for each other

[balmy ember]

i love thylacleos so much more

idk if it is on scorched earth tho

[tough yarrow]

They are.

[austere remnant]

I mean Thylas are cool too

I just meant aesthetically and mechanically it’s a good fit for ScE

[balmy ember]

ahh

is their a stat that you can turn up to increase mutation chances?

[tough yarrow]

No

[austere remnant]

Do you have S+?

[tough yarrow]

You can use the S+ mutator for mutations, but there is not a vanilla config to do so.

[balmy ember]

wait what does the S+ mutator thing do?

[uneven wyvern]

Does ss count

[balmy ember]

i dont use S+ but i have it

[austere remnant]

It’s manual mutations at the cost of element I believe

[balmy ember]

oh cool

[austere remnant]

But I actually have never used it, so I don’t know how comprehensive it is

[balmy ember]

if i instal S+ mutate them and the delete S+ will the mutations go away?

[austere remnant]

I don’t think so

[tough yarrow]

Should have it

https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Mod:Super_Structures/SS_Mutator

[uneven wyvern]

It does 😁

I got 2 carchar of soul term of a role

[subtle sigil]

we were teleporting to the desert realm. we were all on bats (3 of us) and one of my friends bat didn’t come, it was completely missing. we looked everywhere and couldn’t find it

[elfin hearth]

My best guess is somehow everyone was inside the bubble but your friend's bat.

[ornate zinc]

do shields tank wyvern breaths?

[limber current]

No

[subtle sigil]

no i saw her and her bat in the bubble so we’re confused LOL

[modest wagon]

.

[shrewd herald]

What is the technical reasoning for Aberration and Valguero both having _P after their map names?

[umbral dust]

Where do you farm theri saddle BPs?

[silent matrix]

How do I stop things like resources and animals from spawning

[nimble furnace]

So I raised about 12 R brachios (ark additions). Each of them have 100 health/melee points. Imprinted, with 100k health. And can deal upto 40k+ damage with mega stomp. They have 45-50 armour each.

I wanna do a purple osd. So should I let them go ham? Or should I hitch them in a circle surrounding the purple osd and attack whatever comes at them?

(Pve mode, tamed creatures can't damage osd's)

[modest shale]

PvP PS4 at 1x Server: 103b Ragnarok in 30 mins

[opal frost]

Yo do u guys have a bit lag on genesis 2?

[thorny mulch]

what dino should I use to tame chaos dinos in primal fear?

[thorny mulch]

a bit? it is kinda laggy because it is the biggest map with much content to load

[silent matrix]

megalosaurus

i think is op i need to test that

[feral grail]

hello
what is the percentage chance of chibis looting turkeys

[proud sundial]

how many artifacts can respawn in a cave when using the otter?

[fast burrow]

Does phoenix smelt metal?

[compact umbra]

Yes but not spalsh dmg like poisen. But fire n shit yes

[compact umbra]

Using a Otter is so u can keep 2 artefacts. 1 in each inventory

[ornate zinc]

oh does it tank lightning too?

[proud sundial]

i was able to carry 3

one on me and 2 on the otter

it took longer for the 3rd one to respawn

[compact umbra]

Yes

[ornate zinc]

thanks

[compact umbra]

Then 3 ig

[proud sundial]

well 3 makes sense cuz you do the bosses on 3 difficulties

[compact umbra]

That has nothing to do with each other

[hard loom]

does the scuba tank take damage in the cave where it has the artifact of the cunning...?

[proud sundial]

makes sense to me

anyways its the truth so like... idk why we are having this discussion

clearly devs correlated those facts that have "nothing to do with eachother" and made them work in this way

[radiant jungle]

Why can’t I ride my X-Argentarvis?!

[compact umbra]

Every dino can carry an artefact

Only reason why u use otters its bcs u carry them on ur shoulder

U could use hawks aswell etc...

[proud sundial]

no the reason why you use an otter is so that you dont have to run the cave twice

[compact umbra]

Bro

Thats what i said

[proud sundial]

but other dinos can only carry one artifact

so the otter is practical because it carries multiple

[compact umbra]

Ye

U usually dont run gamma or beta bosses besides ur playing pve so it doesnt matter in the end ig

[proud sundial]

yea im not big on pvp i would probably run gamma and beta for sake of it

[compact umbra]

Yes

Abberation beta is used mostly for beginners bcs its easy and gives good engramms

Or monkey on isl is mostly gamma bcs u can run it solo ez on a velo

[proud sundial]

i dont know the ins and outs of all that

i just play on the island haha

[manic thicket]

iwant to play pvp with some one any one?

[pliant locust]

First off, only an otter can hold artifacts at all, no other Dino can do that.
They can hold as many artifacts as their weight allows them to.
The respawn Intervall of artifacts in caves is also not bound to how many artifacts you need in total for all bosses / difficulties. They just keep respawning and if you want more, just camp that place.
But then you need an otter, because humans can only hold one of each type in their inventory.

[unborn fog]

I need help me and a friend made a server on genesis 2 and everytime I go into rockwell inners I crash and also when I try do do downriver run mission I have tried to validate files but it dint work have also tried uninnstalling everything have work til now on every map and I have all system requirments

[white grotto]

change your graphics quality to shit tier

and problem solved

[proud sundial]

thanks for that i was confused when the other person suggested that any dino could hold an artifact, and i couldnt be bothered fact checking them so i just agreed, but it makes sense it would nearly defeat the purpose of getting an otter

[ripe willow]

is there a trick to surviving the wastelands areas climate in extinction?

[lament cedar]

In what way? Food/water drain?

[ripe willow]

the heat i guess it is

[lament cedar]

Carry an otter, full tek suit are the two easiest ways

[ripe willow]

full tek suit doesnt do it

i thought otter was only for cold, but ill try that

[lament cedar]

It does if you have a higher-grade set. Primitive won’t do it, but higher tiers have more insulation buff if you check the numbers. Otters buff goes both ways so any cold protection it gives you, it will also give heat. If you arent level capped put more points into fortitude. If you are, maybe respec.

[ripe willow]

oh yah, i respec'd and didnt do any fort

[lament cedar]

Fort is for both surviving illnesses easier and different temps. So I usually put roundabout 40 on that and anything that can’t get me through, armor can make up for.

If you wanna be pretty much set and not have to worry about checking armor insulation values, get that fort number up to 80 instead

[ripe willow]

yah, as soon as you said fort i realized I had 0..i just bumped it up to 80

i like to not worry about it when it comes time

[lament cedar]

Felt that, you should be pretty well set then. Good luck

[ripe willow]

lol tek suit, otter and 80 fort and still hyperthermia

guessing its just the map

[lament cedar]

Probably. I run around with custom recipe food/water so maybe that’s my other saving grace

[ripe willow]

ohh is that something you can give?

[lament cedar]

Tek canteens just don’t quite cut it on length of the effects

If you want I can dm you how I made mine?

[ripe willow]

sure

[lament cedar]

Kinda a hard process to explain concisely.

[ripe willow]

ive never done that before

oh really

[lament cedar]

Hope that helps dude, I just dm’d you

[surreal garden]

any play as a dino servers?

[silent matrix]

Somethings wrong then. The wasteland is always hot unless you're in the snow.

I have 30 fortitude and a full set of prim-journeyman ghillie armor and I'm not overheating anywhere but the south east of the sanctuary

[silent matrix]

Doesn't the tek suit need to be powered for the insulation buff?

[lament cedar]

Individual items have insulation values, but the tek insulation buff is only applied when you have a FULL tek suit on

[stray swan]

how long does it take for artifacts to respawn

[topaz mango]

45 mins ish

thats if u dont get a double respawn, not sure if they fixed that, if they havent been grabbed a few hours, is like 1 used to que up

[balmy ember]

when beeding if i get a double mutation and it is on two different stats should i keep it or will it mess with the chain?

[final panther]

@steep kraken Please use #735196277221883964

[reef igloo]

when i feel like playing ark i start the game, and then it feels so boring. playing alone is boring and finding someone to play with is difficult. because i wanna play on a server with no other people bec i dont wanna get killed raided etc.

[unborn fog]

nope dint work

[austere remnant]

So you want to play with other people... but you don't want to play with other people?

[dark fractal]

Play a server with offline raid protection

[valid zephyr]

You wanna play with NPC tribemates ?

[south cedar]

You don't need wyvern milk if you are raising a wyvern just use raw meat

[agile dome]

yeah i still need to feed them milks during the event

x3 is not fast enough for the maturation to catch up with the food dropping rates

[keen bloom]

I think the loot depends on how many rounds of the osd you complete, i could be wrong though

[echo cairn]

I can join ark online servers but i cant join my friends non dedicated how do we fix this?

[shadow kite]

Hello everyone im hosting an ark talent show on steam official 1225 at vannaland north north

ok

[echo cairn]

When i try to join my friends non dedicated server it says connection lost to the host and when i try to join a public server it works fine how do we fix this?

[umbral dust]

Where is the best spot to farm a theri saddle bp?

[nimble cobalt]

question : a tribe on our gen 2 server has 5 pillars in the area we have built it is on the other side of the map from their base and we have built an entire base in that area we have asked them to remove the pillars and they have said they will get to it but its been a week and all they have done is render the pillars what are the chances that is i submit a ticket they will get removed

[bitter glacier]

Can you access tame inventory when riding?

[limber current]

F

[ripe willow]

I just did forest titan, I used a bunch of gigas to kill it..but I didnt get credit , and seeingly no loot.. Is this not a valid way to kill the forest titan?

[oak void]

not sure if its patched but you could do it with one stego and the impale

[ripe willow]

oh thats funny

wonder if it still works

[oak void]

not done it for a good while tbh, so wouldnt know

and they are always cryptic in the patch notes about which exploits are fixed

[ripe willow]

as of a video 4 months ago still worked looked like

[oak void]

ill hop in single player in a sec and test

the gigas should work though so not sure what happend

[granite barn]

what do you think wyvern milk tastes like?

[ripe willow]

not sure im allowed to use that kind of language about someones mother here to answer that.

sorry that was uncalled for

sounded funnier in my head

[granite barn]

bru

[ripe willow]

tek stego would work right

[bitter glacier]

I am in single player but found loot that looks like it was from a player, with stuff I have never crafted or have the engram for

[oak void]

yeah either work my bru

[ripe willow]

right click does the grab attack?

ive never done it before..gues i should practice lol

[strange seal]

Is genesis 2 still crashing and laggy?

Pve? ^

[vital sierra]

yep

[bitter glacier]

Can a rex hop over a single wall?

[strange seal]

I’ll play with u if it’s pve then, official tho?

I only like to play official servers :v

[vital sierra]

I'll try it

[strange seal]

You’ve never tried official?

[vital sierra]

I have but not that much

[strange seal]

Okay that’s fine, we should find a few more people to join us as well, what map do you prefer?

[vital sierra]

The Island

[strange seal]

Oh man that rains an eyesore lol

[vital sierra]

You can say that again

[strange seal]

Do you own any dlc maps?

[vital sierra]

No

[strange seal]

Oh darn, hmm I’m not really in the mood to play the island, have you tried fjourdur before? I also really like Valguero

[vital sierra]

Fjord you kidding I love it

[strange seal]

Maybe we could start there then. I’m gonna go seek out a third player for us if I can

[vital sierra]

ok

[neon dune]

What’s the best pvp crystal wyvern, Ember or Tropical?

[vital sierra]

I heard that the blood crystal wyvern is powerful I think it drains your enemies health when attacking them.

[eternal depot]

Will anyone do the Alpha King Titan at this event?

[bitter glacier]

Can a tek variant only mate with another tek variant?

[elfin hearth]

Correct

[bitter glacier]

oof

[barren bough]

Anyone that knows if Carcha saddle bp is added to fishing rewards?

[quiet frost]

hi

i have a question

what do baby ferox eat?

[elfin hearth]

Dododex says berries

[quiet frost]

thank you

[bitter glacier]

If I tell a dino to stay and it starts to starve, will it go to a feeding trough?

[elfin hearth]

Troughs feed tames within a radius

(dinos don't need to walk over to troughs to feed)

[bitter glacier]

ah

This game is so cruel, if you let babies die you can't get rid of the bodies so you have to live with the reminder of what you did for 3 hours.

[shrewd bay]

anyone on windows ark not workin

[bitter glacier]

I don't think it is a problem to ask here, but you might get a better respons in #bobs-with-probs

[reef raptor]

Thanks

[strong kettle]

what's the best place to spawn in on the island for a beginner?

[bitter glacier]

The first area I didn't have much luck with, kept getting overrun, I think I did the far right "easy" spawn and it has been okay

Have a little sliver of beach up against a cliff, makes it easier to defend 2 sides rather than all around.

[indigo monolith]

Blood

[austere remnant]

Even after all this time, there are few things in this game more irritating than not being able to aim Wyvern Breath Attacks!

[ripe willow]

Is there a known issue with not getting credit for the titans in extinction? first it was forest..this time I didnt get credit for the ice titan... I got loot, but no card for achivement.

[bitter glacier]

Do babies not eat from feed troughs?

[ripe willow]

no, when they hit 10%

[fair wyvern]

not until they get to 10% maturation, you can use maewings to feed babies though.

[bitter glacier]

Have no clue what a maewing is...

[fair wyvern]

big platypus that can be found on gen2, lost island, and Fjordur

[tough yarrow]

https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Maewing

[bitter glacier]

Ah, don't have that expansion

[slim jolt]

Is arkpoc wipe schedule listed anywhere on here

[bitter glacier]

Is there a button that just moves the selected dino to a point instead of all?

Juvenile won't follow me and is in the way.

[elfin hearth]

Not really, no, sorry

[austere remnant]

You can put it in it's own command group and switch to that group

Can you limit the level range that a specific creature spawns in?

[elfin hearth]

I believe so, yes. Definitely possible with mods (e.g. Simple Spawners)

[oak void]

you can tame them on lost island and fjord as well

[bitter glacier]

I am on just vanilla island

still like, really new to the game

[oak void]

ah just enjoy being new then, game can get stale when you speed run it

[bitter glacier]

Any way to get a dino unstuck from a stupid position without demolishing?

[oak void]

cryopods if you have them

[bitter glacier]

....

[oak void]

take that as a no aha

[uneven wyvern]

They r also on fjordur

[bitter glacier]

.>

Um.... The game has stopped showing me what items are missing when I hover over a recipe

[oak void]

need to toggle on tooltips again i think

[wispy frigate]

^ g is the key for that

[copper bear]

Gotta love using the "rare or better" chibi recipe and coming up 3/5 green chibis.

[bitter glacier]

I keep eating full stacks of stuff when I open inventories and die when what I ate was bad

[real rune]

can you place crop plots in abberation?

[bitter glacier]

....Are there seasons?

like, I have been chilling here for a while day and night in hide armor and it never warns me of being cold but suddenly it has started

[bitter perch]

Does the level you tame an Dino at correlate to its max level?

[tough yarrow]

Not seasons, but at night it does get cooler.

[real rune]

a dinosaur can receive 73 levels post tame, if thats what ur asking

unless is like x creatures, which can go 88 post tame

[bitter perch]

Nice

Got stranded on carno island and I’m taking level 100 Argys and rexs ima challenge a alfa Rex next time I play

Taming*

[tough yarrow]

All creatures can have 88 levels now.

[real rune]

since?

[tough yarrow]

Genesis 2

[real rune]

err. i read it was all creatures IN gen 2

and x- creatures, can go 88

all others are 73

[tough yarrow]

It's all creatures.

[uneven wyvern]

even a dodo?

[tough yarrow]

https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Leveling

[tough yarrow]

Yes.

[uneven wyvern]

[split reef]

i have potatoe pc but ark is on sale

[austere remnant]

It will be on sale again

[bitter glacier]

That's the thing though, I have made a base literally where I first spawned and am used to the day/night cycle and hide armor plus my fortitude has thus far allowed me to not be cold at night even without flame sources but suddenly one night it was just not enough

[wispy frigate]

There is some fluctuation with the temp so yes there will be some colder/warmer nights than others, but its not as extreme as seasons

[tall copper]

Is the level a dino on official spawns in at random?

[wispy frigate]

Random, but skewed towards certain levels more than others depending on the map

[tall copper]

Every giga/carch today I’ve seen has been UNDER level 100

On lost island

Which it wasn’t like yesterday

[hoary path]

can't have good days unless you have bad days or else all your days would just be average

[tall copper]

Ain’t that the truth

[bright aurora]

Where is community crunch about classic

[bitter glacier]

Can you actually sleep in single player? as in is there a way to pass the night?

[silent matrix]

No

[hoary path]

nah, that doesn't happen in any mode.

that's a Minecraft thing 😛

you can however edit your day/night cycle

[bitter glacier]

Minecraft doesn't have narcotics describing their abilities

[hoary path]

I think potions have descriptions on Minecraft, but... not sure how that's related lol

[bitter glacier]

....I can't drug the ender dragon in minecraft yo

[silent matrix]

Irrelevant? Why are you sharing this?

[hoary path]

I was like even if you could that's not gonna make the night speed up in ark!

[bitter glacier]

Tangent on tangent on tangent, as conversations go

[silent matrix]

This wasnt even a conversation, it was a question with a recieved answer, and all of the sudden you talk about narcotics descriptions.

[minor sun]

does anyone know of a mod that enables you to build literally anywhere

or a commandline i could use

[hoary path]

eh I think that's set by the map outside of cave building and drop building.

nekatus would know.

I feel like I spelled their name wrong though

[minor sun]

cuz i installed a mod that makes it so osds and element veins spawn on rag

but i cant build around them, so no tek leashes or gates defending it

making it a bit harder to do them

[bitter glacier]

Mate, I talked about sleeping, they said that it wasn't a thing and just a minecraft thing. The reason I said minecraft doesn't have narcotics describing their abilities is because A. it doesn't and B. Ark does but the description of the abilities does not accurately portray its abilities.

[hoary path]

are they in a cave

[minor sun]

ovcourse not they are osds

[hoary path]

PvEAllowStructuresAtSupplyDrops=true

[minor sun]

gamini or gameusersettingsini?

fuck it ill throw it in usersettings

[hoary path]

gameini

[minor sun]

alright thanks ill try that

[bitter glacier]

Is that a setting in a config file because I have tried high and low to look at the base game dedicated server GUI but not found it.

and several of my bases have been locked for quite some time because of a drop and I want to stop it

[elfin hearth]

Yes, it goes in game.ini

[minor sun]

is there anyone here that mods? the guy has the source code for his mod posted, and all it would take is turning off the structure prevention zones

the ini setting changed nothing

[fickle coral]

I'm so pissed rn (sorry for language) but I just discovered, ALL MY PROGRESS IS GONE

I didn't touch anything, I got off once and two days later, I get back on ti see all my progress deleted

Is there anyone else who has experienced this just now?

Or am I the only one?

[elfin hearth]

Did you add it to game.ini? I just googled it and supposedly PvEAllowStructuresAtSupplyDrops=true actually goes under [ServerSettings] in GameUserSettings.ini.

[minor sun]

i did

[elfin hearth]

^

[minor sun]

i added it to both

lol

[elfin hearth]

Ah, and to that section?

[minor sun]

bro wtf is this

theres an ark modding community that has a discord that only lets you in if you steam verify that you own ark?

what kinda gatekeeping shit

[elfin hearth]

There are two versions of those ini files, btw. Are you dedicated or non-dedicated?

[hoary path]

it's a game.ini entry

[minor sun]

is the only way to edit an ark mod with the dev kit?

[hoary path]

it tis

[minor sun]

i know nothing about modding but fuck it ig

[hoary path]

rofl

beacon may be more friendly

[minor sun]

i have the source code and some time on my hands.

nah this guy has his mods source code openly available and i tried beacon

[hoary path]

fair

[minor sun]

ITS 300 GB?

really putting the 4TB to use jesus

if anyone here knows how to mess with the devkit id LOVE some help

[hoary path]

probably some ol YouTube's on it, and there are some official map/mod makers around if they feel like sharing some time

[minor sun]

i have a mods sourcecode and a little guide on how to install it into my devkit and such, i just want help navigating it so i dont mess anything up on my path to what i need to change to fix it. the mod dev has discontinued the mod and has his steam set to private

if anybody can offer that help to me sometime id love it

just dm me please and anytime that works for you ill be on to get this sorted out

[minor bay]

anyonw know what i should do if a certain researched resource wont show up in my fabricator?

[neon dune]

Does pc have a Ark store for skins

[frail parcel]

you can buy skins on genesis in the hlna store

[neon dune]

P2W

Guess I gotta buy gen 😎

[frail parcel]

I mean gen is nice either way

[neon dune]

Yea

[neon dune]

Know any cool skins?

[frail parcel]

nah I dont really know them XD

[neon dune]

Lmao

[bold gate]

its great idea making diary missions on all servers, to get items like element, give us gameplay @viral shore @tall minnow simila wow or other games mmo i hope make it 😉

[rich wave]

is there any way for me to play with my xbox one friends (im on playstation)

[rich wave]

oh ok thanks

cuz i read on some forum that theres something called cluster servers or somthing

[silent matrix]

Cluster servers are multiple servers together (you can transfer from the island to lost island). They got nothing to do with crossplay

[rich wave]

ohh ok

[tawny cedar]

get a pc

then problem is solved

[still saddle]

Ok guys

I need some help

So on stegosaurus(tek) you can switch modes

And the button for it is control right ?

So on german Keyboard i cant find it and control is also a button for punching

And i cant find in optins to set the button to switch modes

Is there something i can do to fix that

[silent matrix]

Its the button for crouching

[still saddle]

Oh

Thanks

I will try when im on pc tonight

[pliant locust]

On a QWERTZ keyboard (which you are using), it is called “Strg”.
Control is how it’s named on a QWERTY keyboard.
It’s by default the very left key in the bottom row, like where spacebar etc are as well

[still saddle]

Yes man
When i press strg it punches

That’s exactly the problem

[pliant locust]

Yes that’s the pistol whip key

Or whatever it’s called properly

[still saddle]

Yes and on a dino it does nothing

Thats the problem

I have a tek stego so the color should change of the spikes if it would work

[pliant locust]

Wait who said it’s Control?
It’s the crouch key for stego mode, which is C by default.
All Dinos will use either C,X, or Spacebar for their ability

[still saddle]

My french friend said its control

Because hes teaching me the game

[pliant locust]

Lol well that’s wrong, he’s probably changed his default keys then.
I just looked it up on the wiki as well, just to be extra safe, it’s way down on the page under “utility”

https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Stegosaurus

[tough yarrow]

Most mod dinos have an extra attack/ability with CTRL, while vanilla creatures will have C, X, or Space as Yora said.

[warped steppe]

With Baby Mature Speed set to 10x, should a level 10 Wyvern still take 4+ hours to Mature??

[frail parcel]

I cant say how much, but Im sure its less

[tough yarrow]

Should take 5h to mature fully from baby to adult, incubation depends on the egg hatch speed.

Level does not matter for hatching. A level 10 will still take the same amount of time to mature as a level 190.

[warped steppe]

at 10x Mature speed? or at 1x Mature Speed?

[tough yarrow]

At 10x.

[warped steppe]

Thank you. I’m assuming that until it turns into Adolescent, and not full grown? I’m just now seeing the breeding timers on dododex

Full grown maths to about 9.2 hours at 10x?

[tough yarrow]

Sorry, misread my timer. At 10x maturing, a wyvern will take 9h 15m 33s to fully mature.

[frail parcel]

you cant with meat

but you can get a owl or daeodon to heal it

or maewing to feed

[warped steppe]

Thank you Bee!

[warped steppe]

Got my Dae on him, thanks!

[frail parcel]

no problem

[fast burrow]

which map has the most dinos other than fjordur?

[elder imp]

i want to say lost island

[sick flicker]

ive heard alot about valg on most dinos but ive never visited

[elder imp]

that would have been my next guess but lost has some dinos ik Val doesn't

[frail parcel]

which dino are you looking for?

[fast burrow]

not looking for any specific dino, just a map with lots of different dinos

[elder imp]

are you playing single?

[frail parcel]

lost island and rag are nice ig

and ofc fjordur

[wispy frigate]

Gen2 probably

[fast burrow]

no, multiplayer

[frail parcel]

yeah gen is also not bad

but I would say all the maps have lots of dinos lol

[elder imp]

hm personally to get a start would be gen2 rag or fjordur

[sick flicker]

except island

[frail parcel]

haha yeah

[elder imp]

extinction has a ton as well but some aren't tame-able....

[frail parcel]

and some are pretty mean

[elder imp]

some may or may not destroy everything

[frail parcel]

some wont let you in peace

[bright geyser]

what is the keybind on steam to teleport in fjordur r does not work for me

[uneven wyvern]

It should be r but check ur keybinds

[elder imp]

hold r

[bright geyser]

r does not work for me and i have teleporting enabled

wait i see yeh i reset keybinds and it worked

thanks

[cedar grotto]

hewllo

[silent matrix]

If I increase food multiplier on dinos, does it make them need more food to be tamed?

Nvm i already got an amswer

@violet rivet can you answer the vel stalk question cuz I'm curious too

[violet rivet]

what is it

shadowmane mission is good too

[void kayak]

thank you Pom

Personally I stick to the wave fights since I'm tank built

[austere remnant]

You know it kinda seems like the southern most portion of The Scar never spawns Wyvern Eggs

Maybe it's a singleplayer glitch

But I have been hunting for days and have never gotten one in any of the five or so alcoves next to the lava falls

[umbral dust]

Why are Genesis 1 Alpha brute missions so impossible

[void kayak]

what's your difficulty with them?

[umbral dust]

They have so much health I barely make a dent

[void kayak]

Gonna assume running solo on official steam servers?

[umbral dust]

Yes

[void kayak]

I don't believe they scale down the boss fights for non groups so you're doin the work of a group solo

[crystal fulcrum]

augh

i play xbox and mobile

but mobile is ded

[silent moon]

hmmmm
is north ice or center pearl better?

[crystal fulcrum]

center ice:)

[void kayak]

why I stick to my xb1 servers

Ok thanks you.

[steady thunder]

Curious but how would phoenix's work against the dragon?

[silent matrix]

What

[silent matrix]

You mean the boss? Because you cant take flyers into a boss fight

[steady thunder]

Not to ride

[silent matrix]

Huh?

You still cant take them into a boss fight, regardless if its being ridden or not

[steady thunder]

How are poeple able to bring argys and wyverns vs the crystal wyvern queen

[silent matrix]

Idk, i dont play crystal isles

[dense furnace]

maybe not all maps have the same restrictions

or maybe it doesnt apply to atgies and wyverns

[ancient badge]

you can use flyer for boss fight manticore only in SE and wyvern queen.

[urban igloo]

Good afternoon everyone, asked a question yesterday and got busy, but does anyone know how to fix s+ inventory assistant not working?

It will work occasionally and then just stop working randomly and never work again. Sometimes a server restart helps. Sometimes it doesn’t

[umbral dust]

How do i prove the alphas on ark cluster 9 cheat, they only use ESP an speed hacks when no one is around, but i have the logs to show, they found EVERYTHING i had hidden on Gen 2 map in less then an hour or so, the entire map of my stuff wiped every reaper and hidden stache

[silent matrix]

There is no way until admins find out about it. Best you can do is report them and hope they keep an eye out

[umbral dust]

what do i even say to them "hey i think they are cheating but dont have solid proof"

[void kayak]

basically

[silent matrix]

What else are you planning on doing?

[umbral dust]

Quit

[cursive relic]

Because that’s a boss fight where flyers are allowed

[uneven wyvern]

and desesert titan allows flyers too

[tough yarrow]

Titans are open world, not teleport arenas. Like the Fjordur mini bosses. Those can have any dino.

[elfin hearth]

Hidden stache? Isn't that called stubble?

[tough yarrow]

what lmao

Oh I see what you did there

Ignore me

[uneven wyvern]

hmm how many wyverns is it to kill desert titan

[bright geyser]

is ambergris in the fjordur cave

[uneven wyvern]

its in a cave idk which cave

[elfin hearth]

Space cave I believe

[sage crow]

I know the chances of anyone knowing this are slim, but here goes: Is it possible to find an r-thyla with color 36 (albino) in region 5 (the body pattern) in the wild?

[uneven wyvern]

on what map kode

[sage crow]

Gen2. Are they on any other?

[uneven wyvern]

idrk

[slate widget]

wiki says you can

[sage crow]

Nice! Thank you. I'll keep looking.

[elfin hearth]

They're on Fjordur as well

[sage crow]

I didn't know that. I might go have a look

[elfin hearth]

Just head to the redwoods castle and they're spread around the area. They share spawns with non-R btw

[sage crow]

Redwoods? Does that mean that they sit in the trees just waiting to pounce? It's so nice on Gen2 that you don't have to be totally paranoid when you hunt for them 😄

[slate widget]

iirc they aren't in trees on fjordur either

[bright geyser]

does anyone know through what stage a magmasaur can start eating stone

[slate widget]

adult

its ambergris or sulfur until adult

[weary holly]

How long does the tamed dodorex last after crafting it?

How do I get lvl 300 Dinos ? Tired of 150s ngl

[tough yarrow]

Can't without an unofficial server

[blazing dirge]

Damn

Imma go cry now

[slate widget]

console singleplayer can use the difficulty command to set it to 300s but you'll need to do it every time you start the world. you'll also need to dino wipe to get them to spawn.

[inner karma]

Hey guys, I’m not getting a good answer when I search it up if magmasaurs spawn on gen 2

[slate widget]

they don't

[inner karma]

Oh

Is it possible to get it from a summoner or something like that

[slate widget]

I think summoners can spawn them but they won't have eggs and they aren't tamable

[inner karma]

That’s something I saw

[slate widget]

none of the egg tames are on gen2

[inner karma]

Oh, that unfortunate

I’m trying to kill turkeys but they just won’t die

[slate widget]

yep the killer turkeys are pretty tough

[inner karma]

Ima go round 2 with them on my shadowmane so wish me luck

[flat basin]

@inner karma u need a Giga

[slate widget]

just use multiple shadowmanes

[worldly wagon]

i have a question, do you think i should just start fresh. I lost everything on the dragon fight and fr cant recover lol.

i did not know that the dragon could hurt me while mounted, so i died

[inner karma]

Alright

[flat basin]

What server u on @inner karma

[slate widget]

I'd suggest breeding a bunch of disposable shadowmanes. so you can always run with yours when needed

[worldly wagon]

is the dino level cap 150 on non dedicated

ik its 120 on solo, just wondering if its different

[slate widget]

it'll copy the same settings as your singleplayer. you can use the guide in #bobs-with-probs to change the levels

[silent moon]

where would they even spawn if they were on gen 2?

[slate widget]

who?

[silent moon]

the egg tames

[slate widget]

none of them spawn on the map, but some appear in the rockwell innards as the summoners summon them

they can also appear in missions

[silent moon]

i wonder if summoner dinos can be tamed

[slate widget]

doubt it

[uneven wyvern]

not sure if they can be tamed

[buoyant maple]

Is ark 2 gonna allow me to play in my own private world with a friend or is it gonna be odd like ark with tethers etc

[pseudo oracle]

If anyone wants to trade for dust on Xbox smalls dm me

[gloomy steeple]

Is there a place to post about our yard sale?

[regal yarrow]

The tethers are so you don't fry your computer. Almost any locally hosted game has similar features

[grave needle]

Tried to tame my first rock elemental but somehow killed it despite only missing headshots with 2 rpgs, is it really that slim a margin for error lmao

[elfin hearth]

You know cannons are less risky right?

[silent matrix]

MUCH less risky o..o

[regal yarrow]

Just the splash from rockets will kill most golems, miss one or two at all and it's done for. Cannons and fence supports is by far the best way

[proven adder]

i really wish there was a server that used every mod that adds new dinos to the game (except only the ones that add actual creatures, not like the monsters/fantasy ones)

i want to make a mass collection of all of htem and use them in singleplayer

[elfin hearth]

I've seen servers like that

[proven adder]

but do they use EVERY one though

there are mor ethan what people realize

also im pretty sure there are ways to disable a specific species from spawning which is great because i can download mods that add normal creatures AND fantasy ones but disable the fantasy spawns

[elfin hearth]

KBD, Shinies, Additions, Ab Editions...

[proven adder]

what is kbd?

also i mean like new species, not new variants

[elfin hearth]

Krakens Better Dinos (actual creatures, not fantasy)

[proven adder]

oh that one i do know that one

[elfin hearth]

Additions is the one that adds all new dinos

[proven adder]

there are so much more than just ark additions though

[elfin hearth]

Keep in mind that maps already start to feel a little crowded as it is, with just the mods I listed above

[proven adder]

ark additional creatures (there are like 6 of these), ark horizons, marniimods wildlife/horses, animals of atlas, prehistoric beasts, shad's atlas imports, etc

and yes the map will be ridiculous if i use all of them, but i just want to try it lol

[elfin hearth]

Balancing the crowding, and optimizing stability/long logins can be tough

If you add all the dinos you may not be able to add many other mods without sacrificing server stability

[proven adder]

absolutely
that is the magic of mod spam

[elfin hearth]

Can Simple Spawners fill that req? Not sure how that mod works with non-native dinos

[frigid condor]

Quick question: if I clone a spayed/neutered creature. With the clone be able to mate?

[vestal dragon]

no

[frigid condor]

Awe

[flat basin]

Why would u spay or neuter?🧐

[proven adder]

not sure. one question though, can i use simple spawners to get deinonychus on non-valguero maps?

[elfin hearth]

That was more or less what I was wondering. (Been meaning to mess around with it.)
I suspect it can pull anything you have access to (i.e. dlc, mods installed.)

[odd relic]

Question when is next arkpoc wipe on the 4th?

[spark sedge]

Okay i say this with the acknowledgement I did it with singleplayer settings:

Deinosuchus seem like they're a really good alternative boss-killer, in a server with Ark Additions. They hit like a rex and have that bleed if you can get the boss moving around. Highly recommend. The biggest limiter is saddles though- Unless you've got the upgrade station mod, can just casually kill the Savage Acro, or some other way to get higher-quality deinosuchus saddles, they're stuck at engram-grade

[spark sedge]

Back in my server days it was pretty common practice to neuter dinosaurs before trading them to other people

[austere remnant]

I love the idea of Upgrade Station but it feels a little too easy to get extremely high quality equipment

At the same time, I hate the grind of looking for it via vanilla systems

[spark sedge]

It's a resource sink to upgrade things so it's fairly balanced I feel

Turning the items back into blueprints is where you can start to get really silly with it, but then you still need resources to balance things out so... eh

Sometimes it costs more resources to upgrade a primitive item to ascendant than if you had just found and crafted a drop blueprint

[austere remnant]

Sometimes

[spark sedge]

You can always just set your own rules on how you use it, too. Like, there's no gun being held to your head

[austere remnant]

That is true. I do that a lot TBH. Because at this point in my life I could not stand to play ARK vanilla, it is just too wonky and too much of a time-sink.

[spark sedge]

ever since i got a heliocoprion I never use the blueprint maker, for example, aside from making higher-end ark additions saddles or whatever. I just take it to the shark. Same process but more of a time investment and also it involves a creature. And sometimes finding a convienient spot in the base to keep the shark is an interesting challenge in and of itself

Well like. Not "challenge." Problem i guess

[silent matrix]

[graceful lantern]

Does anyone in here rent a Nitrado server for ark who can help me?

[austere remnant]

I am trying to fit 20 Lightning Wyverns in the Manticore arena and the stupid teleport pad is not large enough, so my only option is to release them after I get there, but the ini header for DinoStorage2 doesn't seem to work

-.-

[silent matrix]

I'm pretty sure you can't take wyverns into boss fights

Well if your gonna take a flier in that fight the manticore will never land

So bring a fab sniper or something

[austere remnant]

Excuse me. Ark: Ultimate Survivor Edition is out right?

Where is my f****** Scorched Earth Ascension sequence on PC?

[fair wyvern]

those are two completely separate things

[austere remnant]

I was under the impression that when it was released to Switch with ScE Ascension that same update would be distributed on all other platforms.

My disappointment is immeasurable, and my day is ruined.

[icy flame]

sudden spike in ram usage, didnt have this issue yesterday

[frail vine]

Scorched Earth ascension will be coming to other platforms with the Winter update along with the new explorer notes and dossier voice-overs. By Winter update I believe they mean the Winter Wonderland event, which usually comes around Dec 18.

[proud sundial]

Woah I thought it would never happen…

[hoary path]

I mean...

[sage crow]

That was weird. I did an egg run in the fire wyvern trench on Valguero and I got 3 completely identical eggs. Same level, same stats, same colors.

[graceful lantern]

Is everyones super turkeys for the turkey trial event level 250?!

[agile dome]

thats the only level they spawn at

[silent matrix]

Same wyvern that laid the eggs

It's normal

[wary pagoda]

Hi, I would like to know if we can make our dinos take unlimited levels?

[glad totem]

You are referring to their level ups correct?

[silent matrix]

Nop :/

[wary pagoda]

yes, when we capture them

[glad totem]

Are you playing on a dedicated server from provider such as Nitrado? or are you non dedicated/singeplayer?

[wary pagoda]

Nitrado

[vague remnant]

hey guys when will the new server open

offical*

[glad totem]

So you can not make them unlimited per say but you can make it where they have up to 1 million level ups. However anything over 999 level ups starts to bug out game wise

In order to do this though, you will need to individually edit each level

Which is quite time consuming unless you have the beacon omni app

[vague remnant]

when will the new offical server open

[glad totem]

I have no idea sorry, I do not work for wc

[vague remnant]

ok

[wary pagoda]

might as well spawn them ourselves at the level we want, right?

[glad totem]

yea that would be more ideal

[wary pagoda]

thanks for the answers! and the maximum levels of the dinos that we can meet is 300, right? by putting the maximum difficulty in the parameters of nitrado?

[glad totem]

you can make the level of wild dinos over 1000 if you wanted too

just they became super hard to tame

[wary pagoda]

it works, what is the parameter to modify? on nitrado?

[tough yarrow]

OverrideOfficialDifficulty=10 will give you level 300 dinos.

[wary pagoda]

Okay thanks

[midnight hazel]

will a yuty fit in a 2x2 doorframe trap or just walk out of it? I built one for small creatures but a pretty good lvl yuty just spawned near it

[night terrace]

I have a question

Is it possible to have more than one save on each map?

[distant glen]

in singleplayer, possible but annoying since you have to back up the save files manually

[tough yarrow]

For console though, no.

[night terrace]

Oh that sucks

I’ll just play another map then

[distant glen]

oh, right, console. Damn, sucks

[mellow bolt]

you can on official if you mean different servers

[night terrace]

Can I still play if I pres host non dedicated session?

[tough yarrow]

Yes

[night terrace]

But what do I press?

[tough yarrow]

What do you mean?

[night terrace]

When I get in to some kind of menu

[tough yarrow]

Oh, you hosted a dedicated server. Exit that, and then do non dedicated.

[night terrace]

Oh

Well ark crashed so I got wait for a bit

[polar sundial]

so they actually lay the eggs? I thought the eggs just spawned there

[silent matrix]

The eggs spawn when a wyvern is close to it

to the nest*

It will be that wyv's level and stats

So if that same wyv happens to fly around a lot it can spawn multiple eggs from just that wyv

[night terrace]

Where does ankylos spawn on the island

lol

[mellow bolt]

mountains

[mellow bolt]

and snow

[night terrace]

Any mountain?

[mellow bolt]

basically, yeah

[night terrace]

Oh okay

Is it worth it to buy ark and all dlc skins and maps on steam if ark doesn’t get crosplay

Actually how much is that

[bold ether]

Skins are a personal choice. Some people love em, some don't. Is it worth it is a question for u to answer, not us. We don't know how much u play or your motivation to do so

[placid sundial]

Iirc the skins are just included with the maps, and the maps are worthwhile imo

[uneven wyvern]

i like maps of the dinos

rad zone on fjordour is scary in tek suit

[silent matrix]

I like the map that has dinosaurs fr fr

[uneven wyvern]

any map has dinos i like 🙂

[silent matrix]

There are ones without?

[uneven wyvern]

yes it called no ark

[silent matrix]

:shoebill:

[celest meteor]

The maps are worth it, especially the original season pass. All four maps there are great to start on and play through, and really elevate the Ark experience. Story is cool too

[acoustic knoll]

I was talking about skins like tek raptor

[placid sundial]

All skins other than the genesis and aberration ones are achievements or events, not paid

[acoustic knoll]

Oh there’s a season pass now so is it just all the maps?

[acoustic knoll]

Wait so you’re telling me you can unlock the tek raptor skin on pc

[uneven wyvern]

theres tek giga skin as well

[acoustic knoll]

Fair enough

[celest meteor]

There are two season passes (On Steam anyway), one being the first four maps and the second being the Genesis Season Pass, featuring Genesis Part 1 and two, the final DLC. You can also buy all maps individually, except Genesis (always bought together), or you can buy the Ultimate Survivor Edition that contains everything :)

[acoustic knoll]

On console most tek skins are a dollar except for giga and Rex

[celest meteor]

They are purely cosmetic, but if you want them then go ahead I guess

[acoustic knoll]

True

I just like being able to easily color my tek dinos without cheats enabled

[celest meteor]

Do keep in mind that most of those TEK variants are already in the game, like the raptor and rex, and are tameable. You just can't have normal creatures with TEK skins

[uneven wyvern]

hmmm tek dodos

[acoustic knoll]

Ik I have played ark since I believe December 2018 I just got this friend wanting to play but they are on pc

And was wondering if rebuying it on pc is worth it

[placid sundial]

Actually i dont think most tek dinos are avaliable as skins except giga

but you get mods so yes

And ini config in singleplayer

[acoustic knoll]

Oh true so that is another reason to buy

[celest meteor]

Yeah, especially since it's on a super sale lol

If you wanna play with them it is your only choice

[acoustic knoll]

Ok I think I may rebuy it and get season pass once me and them beat island

They already have the maps so luckily that’s not an issue

[celest meteor]

That's what I did, bought the first season pass when we finished the Island and then Genesis once we did that

[acoustic knoll]

That’s sad was hoping you could buy them like on console
Let’s hope I just find really good colors with high levels

[acoustic knoll]

Sounds like that would work

[placid sundial]

Well there are mods

[acoustic knoll]

Hmm true
Are there any qol mods I should get

[placid sundial]

like ones that let you paint dinos without commands

[celest meteor]

If you have money to spare I suppose buying the game + the first season pass right now is worth it, but if you're going hungry and want to spend as little as possible just buy the base game. Don't take economics from me too seriously though, all I'm good at is budgeting lol

[placid sundial]

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2276896063

My modlist is mainly qol focused

[acoustic knoll]

That’s something I’ll keep in mind

[acoustic knoll]

I think I’ll just buy the game

Then the dlcs

Well thanks for the info I’ll go get ark on pc now

[sage crow]

So I find a level 15 r-thyla and knock it out and it has 0 points in food. Yay! I feed it shitty food and beat it up and get the taming effectiveness down to 11% and the tracker says "+0 levels". Then it tames and it gets 3 levels and one of the points goes into food. Why did it get 3 levels?

My guess is because Ark is a buggy piece of crap

[placid sundial]

that's been a thing for a while iirc

[granite barn]

Ay ark comunity

I have a question

How do preserving bins work

[tough yarrow]

Just put sparkpowder in it and it will keep things from spoiling for a little longer. If you add sparkpowder, oil, and cooked meat/prime, it can make jerky over time.

[granite barn]

@tough yarrow 2 questions if it means nothing

[tough yarrow]

You can just ask

[granite barn]

Do i need to turn it on or

Automatic

[tough yarrow]

Nope, as soon as you add the sp it will turn on by itself

[granite barn]

And preserving salts

[tough yarrow]

Will add to the existing timer and keep them from spoiling a little longer. I don't remember exact times, but you can look on https://ark.wiki.gg

[granite barn]

1 more

2 more actualy

[tough yarrow]

Lol alright

[granite barn]

How do i preserve nameless

And do i force feed nameless to drakes

[tough yarrow]

1. The preserving bin, unless you have mods.
2. While they are babies, yes. If you have a maewing, you can enable nursing and give the maewing the nameless venom (with salts if you prefer) and it will feed the drakes as long as they are within range.

[granite barn]

But when i put salt and flint in bin with nameless it didnt so anything

But il try maewing thing

With slats

[tough yarrow]

Salt and flint?

[granite barn]

Ye

[tough yarrow]

You have to make sparkpowder in the mortar and pestle with stone and flint (be sure you've learned both engrams) and then put the sparkpowder in the bin. It will not auto feed babies.

[granite barn]

OMG

I read that so wrong

Im sorry

@tough yarrow thanks man

[tough yarrow]

No worries, good luck!

[granite barn]

You 2

[grave needle]

Wtf am I doing wrong. I save scummed to get my cannon back. I trapped a level 42 rock elemental, according to dododex this should KO with 6 cannon balls. I headshotted 10, it didn't KO. I then used 6 rpgs, headshotted all of them. It died. What am I doing wrong

Am I not supposed to get headshots?

[acoustic knoll]

You can only get headshots
I’d recommend making a high hp high stamina owl and using it to heal it sure taming will go down but you would prefer it alive and slower tame then dead

[barren bough]

In addition to this suggestion, I would also suggest to never use RPG's as they have a much higher rate of killing the golem than the cannon does.

and on another note.. I know that a pissed off gacha (due to same gender being close by) will slow / stop production of crystals.. but will they still keep on picking stuff up from the ground?

[grave needle]

Ugh I figured it out. I was aiming above the head because I assumed that, like every other context, the higher damage hits were the headshots

[indigo monolith]

Sooo…. Killed lava golem boss with sinos today. That was a new experience.

[indigo monolith]

Those things have no problem running 10 deep on fjordur but decide to be prudes after they’re tame.

[barren bough]

well, I meant tamed ones XD If they are pissed off, do they still pick stuff up? XD

[indigo monolith]

Not sure. I think so

[barren bough]

well.. guess there's only 1 way to find out XD Just wanted to see if anyone knew first 🙂

[zenith widget]

best place to farm arb bp?

[barren bough]

arb bp?

[barren bough]

still picks stuff up.. guess my actual question was if same-gender would stop it from eating the stuff it picks up XD

[zenith widget]

advanced rifle bullet blueprint

[barren bough]

Red crates (Swamp Cave) / Red crates / Red crates with a ring on the island, Red crates / red crates with ring on SE (not the ones out in the dunes), red crates on Valg.

there's also the yellow crates on Aberration

[uneven wyvern]

i saw red one on ab idk where at

[barren bough]

should be able to show up in the red ones as well since lower-tiered loot can be in the higher tiered crates

[uneven wyvern]

i got a ar that does 257 from a red crate

[barren bough]

He's looking for the ar ammo bp..

[uneven wyvern]

idk if crates give ammo bps

[barren bough]

they used too.. unless that has been changed ^^

[uneven wyvern]

i havent seen any but i may been unlucky cuz i have 29k engrams to use rn

[barren bough]

yikes XD

[floral garden]

Hey folks, I have a question about the pack buff. Does it work only having the same dino? Currently have 3 raptors. Do I need 3 more for the next buff? Or will 3 more of anything work assigned to the same group?

[wise sequoia]

I think it is 1 male that is high(er) level and 2 females

[uneven wyvern]

is the raptors have 2 females?

[floral garden]

Currently have 2 female and 1 male

[uneven wyvern]

is the male higher lvl then females?

[floral garden]

No

I'm still new and learning things

I've seen videos with people using packs and they talk about pack buffs for 2 or 3 and then 6 or 7 idk really

[uneven wyvern]

well idk if raptors get that buff

[floral garden]

Ok thanks I'll experiment I guess. I have an old version of ark I guess. Currently waiting for the update to finish. Was thinking about how I might help my raptors beef up some

[south cedar]

They should get the buff they are raptors

[uneven wyvern]

do giga get the buff?

[floral garden]

I know where I can find a couple more descent raptors. If I can get them was thinking about taking my trike out for some exploring with the trike as lead

Was wondering if the trike would make the 6th member of the pack lol funny to think about

[uneven wyvern]

so i tamed a lvl 200 carchar 😮

[floral garden]

Nice congrats

Still baby stepping my way into the game lol

[uneven wyvern]

so i died to a lvl 190 wyvern even tho i had 3k hp

[floral garden]

Sounds epic

[uneven wyvern]

it ant fun 😦

[floral garden]

Don't think they go quite that high on mine, I just left the normal settings. No hard ore or anything and I put my game on easylok

Lol

[uneven wyvern]

im egg hunting rn

[floral garden]

The easy setting helped some I haven't died too many times

I learned not to just walk up to the dilos the hard way

Seen some videos about that. Looks exciting and scary at the same time

[gray pawn]

who loves ing around

[floral garden]

So did you use a tapejaero, is that how you spell it? To get the wyvern egg?

[uneven wyvern]

im doing it no dino or armor

[floral garden]

Omg

[uneven wyvern]

20k tops to repair my tek armor of black pearls

[proud grove]

gacha

[floral garden]

I think I'm going to try to tame one of those crocs next. I know where there is one terrorizing on my map.

Sarco

Was exploring along the southern coast of the island map. And he is near to the spot with the pathway that is supposed to lead to a cave

I need to get rid of him though before I go through there

[uneven wyvern]

im finally in magma cave

[floral garden]

Nice good luck

[uneven wyvern]

hmm 400% club + 2620% melee dmg tho

[floral garden]

Sheesh what are you using

[uneven wyvern]

thats my character 🙂

[floral garden]

Omg

[uneven wyvern]

i could use 700% shotgun 🙂

[floral garden]

So do you are in there with just you?

[uneven wyvern]

yes just me

i had to get my shotgun 🙂

[floral garden]

I'm just now able to make me a longneck rifle. Took me a while to collect enough metal for it and the bullets even using the river rock trick

Haven't made the shotgun or rifle yet. Didn't know if I wanted both

Until I have a better access to metal anyways

[uneven wyvern]

shotgun is op close range

[floral garden]

I might make that one instead gonna keep using the crossbow just for taming purposes cause the arrows are easy

Made myself a raft/base thingie been exploring the coast a bit

[uneven wyvern]

i use tek bow for taming

[floral garden]

It'll be nice to get to where I can use some of the tech stuff. Like the cryo pods

Not sure what this update will do to my game if anything

[uncut walrus]

sorry to interrupt but would anyone know why I cant join official servers or mts?

[pseudo oracle]

Anyone wanna trade for 225 ele in dust on smalls pm me if so

[uneven wyvern]

so im gonna get more magma eggs

[keen quartz]

What alpha creature gives the most chibi xp

[uneven wyvern]

not sure

[indigo monolith]

Leeds?

[wet orbit]

Any messages?

[jade hornet]

Bush Beer and ARK go so well together after work

[uncut walrus]

just says 'connection timeout'

[jade hornet]

check your internet connection tbh

[wet orbit]

Ping or blocked on your router or just crap speed

[jade hornet]

i have had that before.. so close ark and re open it

[uncut walrus]

yeah I restarted, plus ive been other games for a good while today as well, just some Ark servers arent letting me join ;/

[uncut walrus]

yeah maybe

[jade hornet]

ark does take A LOT of bandwidth due to the art assets

[wet orbit]

Is ur battle eye working?

[jade hornet]

do a speed test at speedtest website

[uncut walrus]

um not sure?

ok

[wet orbit]

It's anti cheat software and official and mts need it on

[uncut walrus]

yeah not sure how I would check that do u know?

[wet orbit]

I think you can find the app in ark folders online it might not be auto start for whatever ark reason

[uncut walrus]

also im 54 up and 4 down with speed

[jade hornet]

the connection box that pops up when you click to start the game says battle eye updating

or something like that

[wet orbit]

Ark where is battle eye located

Or something should tell u

[wet orbit]

Yeah it might not be auto start or not there for whatever reason ark can be dumb

[jade hornet]

surely you would bean 54 Mbps down and 4 Mbps up??

[wet orbit]

I'm not sure if it would give a different message though

[uncut walrus]

oh yeah lol

[wet orbit]

Could just be ur firewall or bcs of server location

[jade hornet]

i always start ark from the library since i have to choose extrememly low memory setting lol

[uncut walrus]

I am using vpn ;/

[wet orbit]

Same lmfao

[jade hornet]

ahhhhhh

that is why Cotter

[wet orbit]

Yeah try turn off

[jade hornet]

do not use VPN for a fact

[uncut walrus]

but like, why would it stop working now

[jade hornet]

when i have forgot to turn off my ipvanish, i get that exact error

[wet orbit]

Because ark

[uncut walrus]

I think it makes my connection even better

ah ok

[wet orbit]

Thats marketing haha

Doesn't actually give you better speeds

[jade hornet]

you might be going through a different vpn server, just turn it off, you are messing up yiour gaming

[uncut walrus]

but like I think I see a difference

[wet orbit]

Cuz ur still connected through ur internet provider

[uncut walrus]

whaaaat

[jade hornet]

ya, you see the difference that you canot connect LOL

trust me, do not use a vpn to game

[uncut walrus]

but like, ive never had this happen ever

I dont wanna get haaaacked

[jade hornet]

you have very good questions cotter

[wet orbit]

Yeah vpn only for pirating games or if ur parents block stuff hah

[uncut walrus]

ty xd

[wet orbit]

Vpn won't stop u from getting hacked

[jade hornet]

OMG you will not get hacked by logging into a server... hacking doesnt work like that unless its someone on your local network

[wet orbit]

Ikr ahah

[jade hornet]

most hacking is really someone having dumb passwords for accounts or even sharing them.. lol

[uncut walrus]

nana not Ark servers, just the internet etc

[wet orbit]

Yupp

[uncut walrus]

I mean

[wet orbit]

Unless ur on some sus website ur fine

[jade hornet]

if you are playing ark.. dont mess with anything else.. i mean like why would you

[uncut walrus]

oh, u guys are right

wth Ark, why cant I use vpn D:

[jade hornet]

im normally left, but ill take right 😛

[wet orbit]

And they steal ur password and stuff via login page mostly so vpn isn't gonna make a difference

[uncut walrus]

theres many ways, like emails and just links and like etc etc

[jade hornet]

people get "hacked" by being stupid lol

[wet orbit]

Vpn is only good for unblocking website pretty much

[uncut walrus]

not necessarily

[jade hornet]

@uncut walrus play ARK or play on websites...

[uncut walrus]

theres so many ways to hack it seems

[jade hornet]

key phrase "it seems"

[uncut walrus]

yeah maybe, its good for watching shows in other countries to, makes me feel safe anyways haha, it hides my Ip atleast I think

[wet orbit]

Yeah and all of that is unaffected by vpn which just tells sites ur in a different location that's taken from ur internet connection, if they actually wanted ur location it wouldn't really help much just a little harder

[jade hornet]

lol, get a 2nd pc to mess around on while you are playing ark on another

[uncut walrus]

its encrypted no?

[jade hornet]

but hey its your gaming time... not ours

[uncut walrus]

haha, but anyways I appreciate the help guys!

[jade hornet]

ark is not encrypted lol i can see who al is playing where, just by polling the servers

[wet orbit]

Tbh I doubt u have anything anyone would want to hack other than passwords to use for ads and spam links

[jade hornet]

lol right

[wet orbit]

Yeah lol some servers that say they have so many people but if u join it's nothing

[uncut walrus]

I meant vpn encrypts my data no?

[jade hornet]

i run my own java and python code to poll servers

[uncut walrus]

I mean steal money

[wet orbit]

Do u do bank transfer/use cards?

[jade hornet]

im gonna go play ark and leave you all to this, i logged in a few mins ago and just sitting in my metal box

[uncut walrus]

um, I think?

[wet orbit]

Me 2 my brain is hurting

[uncut walrus]

ight take care ty!

[uncut walrus]

ty!

[wet orbit]

Well if u buy from a weird website then ofc when u enter ur bank details it records it

But if it's Amazon or whatever it's not

[uncut walrus]

oh I stay away from scetch stuff

[wet orbit]

Whether u have a VPN on for either of those it's same results

[uncut walrus]

yeah probs

[wet orbit]

Cuz it's what u input not info from ur net connection

[uncut walrus]

yeah

[floral garden]

I'm still waiting on the update to finish on my game. Don't want to stop it this time. I keep doing that haha

[wet orbit]

Basically dw about it

[jade hornet]

ya dont do that lol

updates suck lol

[uncut walrus]

ik links and giving peeps my info will still get me hacked but idk vpn's still fine ig I hope

[jade hornet]

hey cotter, i know a site that can check to see if your social security number is available for sale, all you have to do is enter your social security number for them to check LOL

[uncut walrus]

switching between countries has been helpful either so im chill

[wet orbit]

Yup gotta install ark on a new pc in a month or so cuz farming so much kt made my PC explode lmao I'm dreading that 250 gigs

[magic tulip]

Y’all are getting a little too wild here

[uncut walrus]

kek

https://tenor.com/view/sorry-im-otter-sad-face-gif-19045961

[jade hornet]

i tamed a few of those...

oh wait, those are not maewings lol

[floral garden]

I got just the basic ark, I bought it used just to try it out and love it. It just has the island, the crater and scorched earth. Assuming the update will plug more in

[magic tulip]

They are so amazingly cute XD

[magic tulip]

WHAT

[uncut walrus]

ive never tamed an otter ;O

[magic tulip]
