ark-survival-ascended

[distant quartz]

will that fix it?

[slate widget]

it'll cause it to happen less and it may cause the nodes to come back. if they are truly removed only running the save as a dedicated can bring it back.

[distant quartz]

How can u run a dedicated session?

Like can u send a guide or smth

[slate widget]

there is a guide in the pins on #unofficial-setup-help at the bottom of the non-dedi guide.

[distant quartz]

I did the settings, now how long do I wait for it to respawn

approximately

[slate widget]

I'd just lower the respawn interval, it'll make it better. it can take hours on singleplayer even when working correctly.

[distant quartz]

i set the respawn inteval to 0 and they are still gone...

[stray sundial]

Where can i post an image? I want to know if there is any way to remove the box displayed when staring at a dino

[amber glen]

Is there a mega tribe so can join it I got a lot of skills.

[slate widget]

0 can have issues, set it slightly higher, and they might just be gone.

[rich fox]

try flying in and out of render a few times after changing the setting

[distant quartz]

does t respawn

i tried with slomo 10 also

[cloud mauve]

Should I use traq arrows instead of darts on a giga to save resources

[proper hemlock]

yo can some1 help me get ini

[jade gulch]

can steam players join xbox or epic without mods?

[bronze hedge]

Hold the hell up

Why can’t I force tame the damn Roll Bots anymore(defense units)

[eternal merlin]

But you wouldn’t be saving resources in the end because you’d be using more Tranq’s than Darts… tough call… What lvl is the Giga?

Say it’s lvl 25… 155 Tranq Arrows, 111 Darts, 56 Shock Tranq Darts🤷‍♂️

[limber current]

155 tranq arrows is still cheaper than 111 darts

[eternal merlin]

Might be Cheaper…depends on what resources or stockpile you have🤔

[cloud mauve]

I can’t make narcotics in bulk yet so crafting so many darts is a lot more expensive than arrows

[eternal merlin]

How are you going to keep the Giga asleep? 💤

[limber current]

Narcoberries

They are more effective than narcotics

[cloud mauve]

They keep the number from going down making them more effective

Plus

I can always just change taming speed

I saw my first 150 today

It was a pego 😑

[eternal merlin]

I admit I steer away from Giga’s since I Trig Giga’d

[silent matrix]

Is there a spawn map for rhyniognathas on Lost island

[eternal merlin]

Trig Giga’d… accidentally caused own Giga to rage and it was in the centre of my base 😬

Carcha my new Bestie🥰

Tek Rexes always my Fave though

[latent verge]

am i wrong or is rhynio just spawning on THE Island?

[eternal merlin]

Island and Lost Island

[latent verge]

ah ok 🙂

[cloud mauve]

I saw one on the island once

By the time I got to it it died

[eternal merlin]

They can be tricky to see in the swamp areas due to all the bushes/trees etc… the ones I found were coz my volume was up and they sound like a Chopper, and the other times were when the music changed and I started turning Orange lmao 😂

[cloud mauve]

There’s supposed to be 1 giga on the map at a time right?

The island

[eternal merlin]

At least, or a Carcha… it’s the where though? Last couple I’ve found were in Snowy regions

[cloud mauve]

I’ve searched nearly all spawns

No luck

I didn’t look at the back of snowy because I didn’t have the armor for it

Maybe there

[eternal merlin]

Blue Obi? Mountains… although not sure if it’s linked but when I did the Tek Cave there was 5 Giga’s and 1 Carcha

Maybe they all hiding in there lol

[cloud mauve]

The hell is the tek cave

[eternal merlin]

You mentioned The Island yeah…

[cloud mauve]

I’m new

Idk what that is..

[eternal merlin]

Hey it’s fine… some of us are still learning even after Years n Years of playing

[shy compass]

big main boss cave in the volcano

[cloud mauve]

Can you enter whenever?

[eternal merlin]

Later on in the game when you’re ready, you’ll start Caving for Artifacts, defeating bosses for trophies and then taking on The Island main Boss to Ascend to the next Map

[eternal merlin]

You can but to open the Door takes Artifacts and Trophies and be a certain Lvl… plus a few well bred Dinos of your choosing to help you fight the Boss(s)… not to mention Armor, Guns, Ammo etc…

[quartz nymph]

i need help

[thick lynx]

LMAO

[uneven wyvern]

which is false

[thick lynx]

Omg

[cyan terrace]

wheres dire otter voter?

[thick lynx]

Ow

[tough yarrow]

What's up

[tough yarrow]

With what?

[cyan terrace]

oh hey new name sorry didnt know oh great ark mod/admin

[warped turtle]

hey guys with rockwells fight i have 10 max level (150 +88 levels ) rock drakes and 10 max level (150+88 levels) reapers and yes i did spend 3 mouths getting the reapers do you think i went overkill is there somthing that i should add should i switch the drakes for somthing

what

[uneven wyvern]

hey country is otterly still a mod / admin for here?

[warped turtle]

but if i did bring tames it would help

[tough yarrow]

Of course. Issues with other members should be reported to Dodo Mail at the top of the members, not individual mods/admins.

[uneven wyvern]

i wanna say hi to otterly if shes online 🙂

[rose light]

so I'm standing on top of this cage I built around a rhynio I tranked, with a bronto on passive waiting right, and just at the edge of the screen I see a second rhynio fighting, okay cool, I'm sure it'll win and I'll go finish it off. nope, it almost immediately beelines at me, gets stuck on my bronto's rear leg but aggro on ME, and the baryonix it was fighting kills it then gets stuck in the same spot

but anyway, what's with the spawn points for rhynio? I can't tell if they're rare or if they're just spawning in areas where other wild dinos are murdering them fast

[latent verge]

No, Tames just get the Aggro from the Nameless and reapers and whatever , u just a Tek Suit and a Pump with at least 500 Bullets

Pumpgun and ammo , at least 500 Bullets, better 1000 if you´re doing solo

[thick lynx]

Why you all deleted messages? I mean otter

Does someone knows or think if the dinos in ark ascended will keep turning in circle like ark survival evolved when roaming around or not ?

[uneven wyvern]

i didnt delete any messages

im just vibing atm

[distant quartz]

I created a dedicated server and put my save there, now I just gotta wait till they respawn right?

[slate widget]

yep, if you lowered the spawn interval then it shouldn't take too long. otherwise give it an hour or something.

[harsh oar]

Guys how can i save my world?

[slate widget]

explain

[harsh oar]

We started a world yesterday with my friend and we left the game and then we came back to the game, but we don't know how to open the world we opened

[slate widget]

did you click local/host?

or join an existing server?

[mortal inlet]

Hello! I have been playing ark for a few days and I'm already in love with the game. I'm playing my partner game of ark until xey get me my own copy

[harsh oar]

We created a world ourselves

[slate widget]

should just load the same way then local/host, click the map you played, then non-dedi or singleplayer depending.

[warped turtle]

no this is my first runthought of the game so no tek

[slate widget]

you don't need tek if you use that food that does the thing I never remember what they are called lol

cactus broth

that one

[latent verge]

Solo? So u need a good Flak and maybe 2 - 3 kits in inv to change! 🙂

[harsh oar]

Doesnt work

[clear edge]

is there anyway to fix a glitch were every time you leave your ark world your game crashes?

Any time I leave I have to put a command to save my game and it can be annoying

[slate widget]

do the same thing you did the first time

[glacial scarab]

What dino would you reccomend for water caves?

[slate widget]

that depends on your map

most use a basilo as its immune to jellyfish tho

[glacial scarab]

In the island

[slate widget]

basilo then

[frail shadow]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[bold rover]

@silent matrix thats what i hope too

[cloud mauve]

Checked every spawn location still no giga

Any tips?

[glacial scarab]

Do basilos spawn at low lvs?

[quiet cargo]

Есть кто Русский?

[glacial scarab]

Gigas are rare

[cloud mauve]

There still supposed to be 1 on the map though

Or carch

[quiet cargo]

Понятно...

[glacial scarab]

@slate widget do basilos spawn at lows lvs?

[slate widget]

there is never a guaranteed spawn. its just RNG and provided they don't despawn.

[slate widget]

don't think basilos have any special leveling

[glacial scarab]

Is a lv 52 (just tamed) basilo good enough for a cave

[slate widget]

no idea, I didn't do island underwater caves.

[cloud mauve]

How rare are they

[glacial scarab]

One of the rarest

[hot gazelle]

quick question, if I mount a dino is my weight added to the dinos weight 1:1 or is there some reduction

[slate widget]

probably the rarest thing on maps besides phoenixs and Rhynios.

[cloud mauve]

Oh

[slate widget]

your weight is 1:1, your shoulder pet to you is halved. items that would get a reduction from the dino (like stone for a doed) only get it if its in the dinos inventory.

[hot gazelle]

I saw one of the rhynios yesterday and I was so confused what im looking at

first I see flying whales and then massive insects

[slate widget]

sky shrimp. Rhynios are rare but unlike gigas they can have multiple spawns. so they are just RNG.

[hot gazelle]

also does the player himself have a weight?

like if theres nothing in my inventory

[slate widget]

No, base dinos and players have 0 weight.

[hot gazelle]

ight, thx

[slate widget]

unless its an elevator then dinos will show their drag weight

[harsh oar]

Hi we just currently opened new server we wanna level up fastly with using commands he can give himself exp but he cant give me exp Note: he is the host of the server

[distant quartz]

I hosted a dedicated server on my pc i am able to join via localhost:27015 my friend is using the same wifi, how do i help him to join?

[brisk kelp]

No, unless your server settings are crazy. Island underwater caves are HARD. Get ready for alpha mosas and tusos with a ton of super high level sharks, like 200+ level

[glacial scarab]

I lv it up to max

Ita lv 140 now

[coarse turret]

I just getting in the game again if anyone wants to join we can do the bosses

[brisk kelp]

Isn’t that only plus 75 levels?

What are it’s stats like

[glacial scarab]

Alot of hp and alot of dmg

[brisk kelp]

I need numbers

[distant quartz]

@slate widget mind giving me a hand again?

[glacial scarab]

15o h0 and 770 dmg

150 hp

150k*

15k*

[brisk kelp]

Ok how much damage does it do per bite

[frail shadow]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[glacial scarab]

I have an iq of 3

[slate widget]

https://youtu.be/o1dcWkSzGd4 thats a video guide for dedicated servers.

[glacial scarab]

Uhhhh it oneshooted a lv 100 mosa

[silent matrix]

In official servers, by chance every time I die my food, life, damage, etc. stats. I had 100 damage and now I have 84 damage XD

[glacial scarab]

I cant see the dmg

[brisk kelp]

Then you’re probably fine

[brisk kelp]

You can enable damage numbers in settings

[distant quartz]

yes u told me already and i followed it but we are on the same wifi => no need to port forward so idk why he cant join

[silent matrix]

On the official servers, by any chance every time I die my stats for food, life, damage, etc. They decrease? I had 100 damage and now I have 84 XD

[slate widget]

it should just show up in the LAN section in the server browser (also check the steam servers if its not being shown)

[fringe prairie]

Bruh

[glacial scarab]

Wait what artifacts are in the water caves?

[frozen hemlock]

What bugs do you consider as features that you would like included in Ark 1.5?

[sharp mountain]

100% double grapple glitch

I can use double grapple for PVE or pvp

[hot gazelle]

well the carno I was gonna tame decided to pick a fight with three brontos

[sharp mountain]

You know u can whistle your dino and control it not to be aggressive

[hot gazelle]

I was going to tame it

[frozen hemlock]

not yet tamed

[frozen hemlock]

I'm in two minds about that one, I'm usually on the wrong end of any pvp cheese

[frozen hemlock]

Jumping off snow owls for auto healing

[sharp mountain]

I can explain u the use of double grappling

Pve, I can transfer my friend with a full inventory heavy

Carry him as light as a feather, no tek suit needed

Pvp, you can double grapple someone heavy to move them, or when raiding u can boost your player into a wall

[frozen hemlock]

How does that work? Does he grapple your flier?

[sharp mountain]

If u never tried
Grapple a friend twice when they super heavy

U can move them

Nope, grapple the other player twice

It's how i farm early game on pvp clusters when we have no tek

Its a kinda bug that is useful

[frozen hemlock]

i'll have to try that one

[sharp mountain]

Yep, super useful

[sharp mountain]

Even more fun then walking them around?

Double grapple using rock drake

Fly your friend full of metal cross map💀

[frozen hemlock]

if it works with a drake then will it work with a griffin?

[sharp mountain]

U could use griffens yes
But i personally find it way more annoying with griffen

If heavy player lands on the back you cant move griffen

U are also slower then a drake if i wana move cross map

[silent matrix]

Can i do so rexes scream doesnt throw me off my pteradon?

[sharp mountain]

I think rex can dismount you yh

[silent matrix]

Does that allways happend or is there a small chance it happens?

Can i turn off that function?

[sharp mountain]

No clue

[last comet]

It ALWAYS dismount you from smaller creatures ( pteranodon,raptor...)

[last comet]

No, its ability of creature

[distant quartz]

Another thing, why do I see my friend as "host" and it shows me the distance? On the non dedicated session he was the host

[slate widget]

non-dedi shows the host as it has a tether (you can only go so far) so it tells you where and how far they are.

[sharp mountain]

U can extend the tethering range

[distant quartz]

But on my dedicated it also shows him as the host, while he isnt

[slate widget]

on the dedicated? no idea on that

[last comet]

Yes, its in game settings

[hot gazelle]

what does the parasaurs secondary attack do

[last comet]

In general I think

[frozen hemlock]

right click is a ping that detects enemies, 'C' is a honk that scares off predators

[hot gazelle]

I assume the latter only works for smaller predators

[frozen hemlock]

I'm not sure exactly what all creatures it works on but it does do something

[last comet]

Its working for creatures up to raptor size

So yes you can scare a raptor

[hot gazelle]

wish I knew that before I lost my first para to a pack of hyenadons

[last comet]

😥

[hot gazelle]

oh yea and then theres the classic beach rex

[last comet]

Rex can also roar and dismount you...

[hot gazelle]

-.-

well I was on a stego when I found him

stego still died :/

Imma build a little memorial / graveyard for them

[last comet]

So sorry

[lime heart]

if i were to play on online servers, can people grief my base/kill my dinos while im away?

[sharp mountain]

If its a pvp cluster... yes

[lime heart]

is there servers that arent... "pvp cluster" ed ?

[sharp mountain]

PVE is what you're looking fkr

They usally make it obvious to you in name of server

[lime heart]

oh okay , i've been playing it safe and just play it offline lol , Thank you!

[sharp mountain]

Officials PVE is getting taken down soon

Unofficial u needa look into if its a good server cluster you like, cause different rates/rules

[silent matrix]

Anyone knows the easiest t.rex trap?

[lime heart]

but why would they get taken down?

[lime heart]

Large bear traps ?

iirc they work on all rex types even alphas

[sharp mountain]

I already answered you

[silent matrix]

So a large bear trap and 4 dino gates right?

[silent matrix]

Well i didnt know if it was the easiest

[lime heart]

if you're going with the dino gates dont make traps

just get him stuck in there

[sharp mountain]

Place 3 dino gates and large bear trap, walk wild rex into the trap, place last dino gate

U can also use metal billboards

[silent matrix]

I could also use ramps?

[sharp mountain]

Did you not hear?
ARK Ascended, new ark is coming soon, so officals will be going down for this game

[lime heart]

i dont find the large bear trap a nessicaty for the gates method, you can almost always just rotate around him closing it

[lime heart]

i do know that ark 2 is coming out soon but didnt think they would pull an EA move

[thick drift]

i've just paused my game while exploring in the night and i see multiple troodons without any tames other than an otter, help

[uneven wyvern]

whats the best flyer for gen 2?

[silent matrix]

So this is like ark 1.5? Cuz ark 2 comes like in a year

[sharp mountain]

Y would you, it's so simple to trap a rex

3 gates and a bear trap, rex gets stuck and place last gate

[sharp mountain]

Yes

And 100% i bet ark2 is delayed longer

[silent matrix]

I can use wooden for a lvl 174 rex right

[sharp mountain]

A tek suit 👍

[hexed kiln]

I think I overprepared for the south cave
I have a pump shotgun(100 bullets)
Fabricated pistol(150 bullets)
2 stacks of cooked food
Flak armour and
A level 130 direwolf with 357% attack and about to level a few more times

[silent matrix]

Omg i was so frustrated when i found out it was delayed that long

[hot gazelle]

wait theres a darn kangoroo?

[sharp mountain]

Just use stone or metal

Cause wood it could bresk free

[hexed kiln]

I am a freakin menace

[lime heart]

yes and it also nureses babies for you!! (and increase imprinting)

[hexed kiln]

Y'all be ignoring me

[silent matrix]

The t.rex is really cool, it's a red and black tech rex

[lime heart]

dude with ur setup u can go take on the dragon man

(obv not)

[uneven wyvern]

i mean animal wise

[hexed kiln]

💀

[hot gazelle]

and there goes Carl II .-.

[hexed kiln]

I am not taking 20 rexes

[hot gazelle]

He inerpreted "follow me" as "jump off the cliff"

[silent matrix]

So x rexes have orange stripes at their back?

[lime heart]

i prefer to directly direct them in those situations, the ai can get pretty dump sometimes

[lime heart]

yes, pretty much all X-Dino i found had that orange strip

[hot gazelle]

time to get a new parasaur

[silent matrix]

Why

[hot gazelle]

again .-.

[hot gazelle]

^^

[distant quartz]

Is it normal for redwood to be SWARMED of dinos

[hexed kiln]

Should I use my argy to take my direwolf to the cave?

[hexed kiln]

Yea it is

I have seen like 10 terror birds and 3 carnos with 15 other dinos in one place

@dense coyote you have been playin ark for 8 hours?!

[hexed kiln]

Help

I need help I am a Bob with a prob

[frozen sonnet]

argy can pick up a direwolf yeah

if thats what your asking

[hexed kiln]

Should I take it tho?

[frozen sonnet]

well what cave

[bleak pagoda]

anyone else getting an error when updating ark on steam and is says steam disc wright error?

[hexed kiln]

I know Argy can pick up a direwolf

[bleak pagoda]

also how do u fix it

[frozen sonnet]

try and repair your files

[hexed kiln]

South cave

[silent matrix]

How swarmed?

[bleak pagoda]

how do u do that?

[frozen sonnet]

no clue what map your on but i mean its up to you

[hexed kiln]

The island

[silent matrix]

How do i kill those bats in ark?

In caves

[frozen sonnet]

i wouldn't go into a cave without a dino but idk its all up to you if you want to take him in there

[astral briar]

what is the base keybind to summon minions?

[silent matrix]

I didnt know it was that dangerous

[hexed kiln]

No I am asking that should I use my argy for travel convenience

[silent matrix]

Well how do i kill em

[hexed kiln]

Or will the raptors there will kill it

[frozen sonnet]

well depends what cave

[silent matrix]

I miss my argy

[hexed kiln]

Well tame another one

[silent matrix]

I named him agro and he could kill an alpha raptor

[silent matrix]

It's early game

[frozen sonnet]

ohh yeah using an argy for taking little dinos and just traveling in general is amazing

[silent matrix]

I deleted that world

[hexed kiln]

I am scared that raptors might kill it

Not like it has 400% damage and 2k hp

And it's level 130 with 21 leveled up

[frozen sonnet]

i mean just put it on neutral or pasive flee

[silent matrix]

What level is it? Ur argy

[frozen sonnet]

or tame a lower level you don't really care for

[silent matrix]

U can put it on fleeing?

[hexed kiln]

I think I will just use neutral so that the Argy kills the raptors

Considering I am on mobile

[frozen sonnet]

hold interact, hit behavior and hit stance and it should be there

they got ark mobile???

[silent matrix]

I was about to tame a new trike but it ran towards a rex

So i had to kill it as otherwise it would take the rex to my base

[frozen sonnet]

happens, i wouldn't tame anything if theres something that can kill you in the area, lead it away

[silent matrix]

I cant, the rex will only make me fall from my pteradon

[frozen hemlock]

go to north cave and notice how underprepared that is :>

[silent matrix]

I really need an argy, where doni find them in lost island

[frozen hemlock]

i don't remember ever being dismounted by a rex

[dense coyote]

[silent matrix]

When it screams

U fall from smaller creatures

[frozen sonnet]

never played that map but if there is a volcano area like island they might be around there

mabye near redwoods but i wouldn't go into the redwoods because of the thylas that sit in the tree and pounce on you

[silent matrix]

Omg the amount of times they threw me off

[frozen hemlock]

Something that has never happened to me

[silent matrix]

Happend first time today i think

[brittle gust]

Hello, me and some friends are using nitrado to host an ark server and we have tried to set difficulty to 5 for the juicy 150 dinos however it seems to not work for us. We have the offset set to 1 and the difficulty itself set to 5

What do we have to do to make it work? Thanks <3

[silent matrix]

5....

Im at 0.65

[frozen hemlock]

when setting the settings make sure the server is shut down first. And then once it's done you will need to do a dino wipe to refresh all of the spawns

[silent matrix]

The high lvls arnt that rare

[brittle gust]

How do you do the dino wipe? We did the changes while it was shutdown

[frozen hemlock]

can't remember the exact command

[brittle gust]

At 5 it makes max dinos 150 and they are incrimented in levels of 5, so you will find 5/10/15/20/etc up to 150

[frozen hemlock]

it should be easily found though

[brittle gust]

Ok we will give that a try thank you

[silent matrix]

Im on 0.65 and i found a lvl 174 rex

145 big turtule

135 raptor

130 trike

[brittle gust]

Ok you must have mods that raise dino levels

[silent matrix]

No

[brittle gust]

We are not using any for it

[silent matrix]

Im not using a mod

[cunning rapids]

Anyone wanna play ark on the steam on island?

[frozen hemlock]

174 rex or tek rex?

[distant quartz]

I hosted my dedicated session with steamcmd, where can I find the server console?

[frozen hemlock]

set the admin credentials in the ini then log in through the console in game?

[distant quartz]

figured

[fervent fern]

Do you know a good server for beginner and who has recently started?

[astral briar]

how do I summon minions?

[frozen hemlock]

are you playing a mod?

[silent matrix]

Tek rex

[leaden vortex]

Hey guys I’m new I’m currently level 50 (got exp multiplayer that’s why I’m high level) what’s a good Dino for me to tame?

[regal silo]

Is 19 theris and 1 yuty good for alpha dragon

my theris have like 110-120k hp and 1.5k - 3k melee

[cosmic mantle]

you got any already?

[lime heart]

Fire Wyverns vs Rexs for bosses??
i just got my first high-level fire wyvern and holy does it SHRED

[cosmic mantle]

not every boss arena allows wyverns but it might work

[astral briar]

does anyone know how I can summon minions on my tames?

[long dome]

Is anyone here who is good at vault hunts?

[cunning rapids]

Minions?

[tardy panther]

for those on console, am I right in thinking that there was a time where commands and cheats weren’t actually in the game like 6-7 years ago? Or did I just have a dream?

[fringe snow]

I believe they were, but I never used them so I never found out

[tardy panther]

I genuinely don’t think they were unless they were gated behind some code

like the one today on console

I don’t remember it was way too long ago

[slate widget]

consoles have had that weird button combination since the beginning I think.

[tardy panther]

oh fr?

[fringe snow]

I mean I sucked back then so I never discovered cheats until like 2019

[tardy panther]

because I remember one day cheats just popped up on my menu when I hit pause and never went away like ever

till a few years later

[slate widget]

thats just ark bugging out lol. its supposed to appear with the button combo

[tardy panther]

then I had to put in the code

[tardy panther]

yeah that happens now, but that seems so odd to the point where I believed they just weren’t in the game that long ago till an update brought them in tbh

[slate widget]

the button combo makes the console appear above the menu for consoles (or plug a keyboard in and use tab)

[fringe snow]

If I knew cheats existed in 2017, I woulda abused the hell outta them since I was always a cheater in games lmao

[slate widget]

just looked it up, it was not at launch was added around 5 months after xbox release

[tardy panther]

oh yeah I know that

[tardy panther]

damn yeah I thought so, though I can’t actually find that online

[slate widget]

I found the patch notes it was added in.

[tardy panther]

what date was it, if you don’t mind me asking?

[slate widget]

april 7th 2016

[tardy panther]

bloody hell lmfao

cheers

[fringe snow]

I just realized ark is 8

[slate widget]

like I said, 5 months after release lol

[tardy panther]

my curiosity is now solved

[fringe snow]

No way ark is still alive after 8 years

[slate widget]

it survived 8 years easily. and will continue through ASA and Ark 2

[fringe snow]

Definitely

ASA is different enough so that Ark still has a community after ASA’s launch

[sharp mountain]

It will definitely be less of a community

[slate widget]

I think only old gen consoles are gonna stay with ASE besides people that are leaving ark entirely I mean.

[fringe snow]

Imma be stuck with Ark 1 for a while since my pc has old specs and my console is last gen

Not complaining

[tardy panther]

I just want asa for the mods lol

[regal silo]

What armor should wear for dragon

[tardy panther]

flak

[regal silo]

I’m assuming ghillie

[slate widget]

you should ride a dino

[regal silo]

Oh nvm

[tardy panther]

actually yeah maybe ghillie

anything with high armour, just use soups though

[regal silo]

That’s what I’m doing

Planning to mount on yuty while my theris attack

I have 20 veggie cakes in each of them

[regal silo]

What soups

[slate widget]

how much HP?

[regal silo]

120-130k

[slate widget]

[regal silo]

I’m playing on difficulty 7

And not on official rates

[slate widget]

those veggie cakes gonna do almost nothing

[regal silo]

Even when playing non official rates?

[tardy panther]

don’t remember the names but the ones that will help in extreme temperatures

[regal silo]

Damn I just wasted time

[sharp mountain]

Dragon fire ball can hit player mounted on dino

And spawns some dinos that can hit the player mountrd on dino

[tardy panther]

depends on your stats/settings

[slate widget]

they heal a max of 2.1k HP (10% of health with that as the max)
dragon does % damage without a max.

[regal silo]

What should I do abt that

I have a shit ton of medical brews ready

[sharp mountain]

Med brew and flak
And dodge fireball when dragon in sky

[regal silo]

Okok

[tardy panther]

using flak or any other good armour and you’ll be good

[regal silo]

I’m also using the whistle commands like the relocation ones

Jsut so my theris don’t die to Lava

[regal silo]

I have like a 4/5 ascendant flak

[slate widget]

if you are boosted enough their damage is probably gonna just kill it fast anyway

[tardy panther]

ignore that I got the name wrong and it’s awkward

[regal silo]

I’m doing alpha drag as well

[sharp mountain]

U should be fine

[tardy panther]

yeah just make sure you have good armour and move around quite a bit to stay away from the creatures that the dragon sends at you, specifically the dimorphodons

[slate widget]

if you have 120k HP I'm sure your melee is equally as broken lol

[fringe snow]

Wait, your survivor… has 120k hp?

[slate widget]

theri lol

[tardy panther]

nah the theris

[fringe snow]

Ohhhh ok

Someone should try to get max health in levels with broken settings

[slate widget]

if their survivor had 120k HP you are pretty much immortal to anything but % damage. 😂

[fringe snow]

Fr lmao

[regal silo]

Ya my theris have 2-3k melee

Some of em are at 1.5 k but you get the gist

[slate widget]

lower then I thought

[fringe snow]

I thought my settings were broken damn

[regal silo]

Alright well time to die to dragon

[tardy panther]

god forbid you lose a bunch of hp, it’ll take you weeks to get your health past 50% let alone full lmfao

[fringe snow]

Good luck

[tardy panther]

stuck with a red flashing screen for ages

[slate widget]

just respawn

[tardy panther]

you could turn it off I guess though

[fringe snow]

Hundreds of medical brews

[slate widget]

or a tek sleeping pod, those heal fast

[fringe snow]

How?

With 120k hp, it’s impossible to die

[slate widget]

bleed

[fringe snow]

Ah true

[slate widget]

or eat 240 organic poly

[fringe snow]

Anyway, does anyone know how to fix settings? Mine are broken to the point where an alpha rex has 55k hp…

[tardy panther]

I am not going to the snow just to die 💀

[tardy panther]

sounds normal?

[slate widget]

that sounds normal

[tardy panther]

they have loads of health

[fringe snow]

Really?

[slate widget]

its an alpha rex yeah

[tardy panther]

yeah, pretty sure they can have upwards of 100k no?

[fringe snow]

Are 140 rexes supposed ti do 1k damage?

[tardy panther]

no.

[fringe snow]

Aha

Gotta fix that

I will later

[tardy panther]

not even an alpha rex I don’t think could do that

unless it’s alpha boosted maybe

[slate widget]

easiest way is to just go into your game.ini/gameusersettings.ini and remove any stat settings. it'll just reset to the default

[fringe snow]

My console settings are fine, but PC settings need work

[slate widget]

an alpha would need 100~ melee levels to do 1k damage

[fringe snow]

lmao

[tardy panther]

surely an alpha boosted and mate boosted one could do that though lol

[fringe snow]

So then in my world, an alpha rex might do- 5k per hit?

[tardy panther]

I’ve seen alpha raptors do like 250+ damage that way

[slate widget]

I just mean base damage lol. alpha boosts would obviously help.

[tardy panther]

not that you’d probably ever find this

[tardy panther]

oh yeah I guess so

[slate widget]

can they be mate boosted? alpha boosted is easy 2 alphas can spawn all the time on some maps like fjordur

[tardy panther]

yup

had two raptors yesterday, one was a 150 and the other a 95 I think

[slate widget]

fun

[tardy panther]

having both buffs take place would be hell to deal with

[fringe snow]

Asa should add alpha Gigas just to scare the shit out of any player

[tardy panther]

at the same time at least, had to separate them

[slate widget]

why, wild gigas are already alphas

[fringe snow]

For fear

[tardy panther]

literally 💀

[fringe snow]

Itd be funny

[slate widget]

an alpha wild giga would literally just be a boss.

[fringe snow]

True, so make it one

[tardy panther]

I mean tbh alpha leedsichthys is basically the same as a normal leeds in terms of health at least, I doubt the damage is the same

[fringe snow]

New boss idea

[slate widget]

I think it'd be harder then most bosses as it has bleed 😂

[fringe snow]

…dammit

[slate widget]

alpha leeds are faster, they can catch motorboats.

[tardy panther]

oh yeah forgot about that I guess

[fringe snow]

Alpha leeds terrify me

[slate widget]

just throw honey in the water

[fringe snow]

The one reason I hate the ocean the most

[tardy panther]

the ark ocean is kinda odd ngl

[fringe snow]

Fr, but thats kinda what makes it fun

[tardy panther]

over on gta 5 the ocean freaks me out but on ark where there’s massive squids and water lizards I’m perfectly fine in that ocean

[slate widget]

the reason I hate the ocean is jellyfish. they evil

[tardy panther]

that’s why I love tusos so much

I hate the eels

[slate widget]

getting dismounted on all but like 3 creatures is fun 🙃

I'm counting andrew as thats technically a water mount

[fringe snow]

Me and a friend were on Fjordur trying to get one of those explorer note type rocks, and he missed the platform it was on and lost his Andrewsarchus to jellyfish

Evil bastards.

[slate widget]

andrew with the saddle are immune to dismounts.

[tardy panther]

Jesus that sounds horrifying lmfao

[fringe snow]

We had to get new ones, which were actually better

[slate widget]

that doesn't stop them from stun locking you I guess.

[tardy panther]

I can imagine just seeing a large boar hippo thing diving into the water to never be seen again

sounds scary

[slate widget]

thats what I hate. they dismount and then stun lock you

[fringe snow]

Jellyfish and electric eels are evil

[frank swan]

Hello I have a question which dino lays the fastest infertile egg on ark ?

[tardy panther]

would trigger my thalassophobia

[slate widget]

the dodo

[tardy panther]

I’m starting to think the eels are worse lmfao

[frank swan]

ok ty

[slate widget]

every other creature is equal.

[fringe snow]

The thing that triggers mine is Giant squids, and looking into the oceananic abyss

As well as any alpha ocean creature

[slate widget]

play subnatica in VR

[fringe snow]

HELL NO

[slate widget]

its terrifying

[tardy panther]

seeing really dark figures in the water just freaks me out, not in ark but for those who haven’t gone in the water I can imagine someone having a panic attack if they go too deep and see the silhouette of a tuso lol

[fringe snow]

Oceans are scary

[tardy panther]

I’d be down

[fringe snow]

Whether itd be in games or real life

Oceans are scary

[tardy panther]

yeah 100%

[slate widget]

subnatica in VR is about as scary of a game I'd play 😂

[fringe snow]

Hell I might actually buy subnautica vr. Sounds scary but fun

[slate widget]

you just buy subnautica. its included.

[fringe snow]

Ah

[tardy panther]

I haven’t even played subnautica lmfao

[slate widget]

I beilieve its just the view, not controls

[tardy panther]

wish I had a pc to do this stuff with

iirc it’s not on the quest 2

[regal silo]

A dimorphodon killed me

Of all fucking things

[tardy panther]

yup

[regal silo]

A DIMORPHADON KILLED ME

[slate widget]

nah, its not a VR game. they just added VR view as it was popular. even ark added that lol

[tardy panther]

they can do that

they’re deadly in swarms

[regal silo]

how do you avoid thatc

[slate widget]

luck

[tardy panther]

keep moving

[regal silo]

I just got my ass handed to me

[tardy panther]

and watch your health at all times

[regal silo]

My theri trapped me in one spot

And wouldn’t attack the dragon

What happens to the tames that are in the arena

[slate widget]

gone, reduced to atoms

[tardy panther]

keep med brews on your hot bar and spam them when you get hurt

[fringe snow]

Oooh, this hurts to read

[slate widget]

anything in the arena is gone after all players die in the arena.

[regal silo]

Is there a way to revert back to a previous save

[tardy panther]

next time I wouldn’t really recommend going near your tames unless it’s to courage roar them or to pull them away from following the dragon after it’s flown off

[slate widget]

try to force close ark, otherwise not unless you backup your save.

[regal silo]

How long does each auto save last

Like what’s the time interval between each save

[tardy panther]

15? 30 minutes? I don’t remember

I think it’s sometime between those intervals

[slate widget]

I believe its 30 minutes by default

[regal silo]

Well I haven’t changed it

[slate widget]

but you can't really tell when its gonna happen. could be in 5 seconds could be in 20 minutes 🤷

[tardy panther]

yeah ark is finicky when it comes to saves

[regal silo]

Course it is

Buggy ass game

[tardy panther]

don’t know if it counts as a save but when you pull stuff out of the ark data bit in the obelisk it says saving in the bottom right corner

I haven’t tried it as I don’t wanna delete my shit whilst it’s still in the obelisk by closing ark

[slate widget]

that saves yes. but it saves obelisk data THEN map data

[tardy panther]

oh I see

[slate widget]

thats why crashes have a habit of removing stuff when downloading. although uploading also has that issue so it might go the other way when uploading.

[tardy panther]

a buggy ass game does however come with a lot of exploits to use to your advantage ¯_(ツ)_/¯

have you closed your game and gotten your stuff back?

[cunning rapids]

Theres bug in my game my tab doesnt work anymore tried exiting and setting all time and nothing anyone know glitch or situation?

[slate widget]

does tab work in other things?

[regal silo]

I just forced close the game by alt f4

Post respawn

Idk if that changes anything

[cunning rapids]

Yes it does

On google everythinf just not ark

[tardy panther]

don’t think so

[slate widget]

shouldn't. I'm fairly sure only leaving and uploading/downloading will force a save

[tardy panther]

there’s been many times where I’ve died, respawned and closed the game and saved my progress

ngl I wish I didn’t find out about that

because now every time I die I just close my game lol

[regal silo]

Ok so hopefully I gets recovered

[tardy panther]

hopefully it does

I usually save before and after doing a boss fight for that reason

[regal silo]

I alt f4ed around like 4 minutes after I respawned back at base

[regal silo]

How do you do that

I remeber being able to set check poibts

But I’m not sure how

[tardy panther]

saveworld in the admin commands or just leave and rejoin your ark

[regal silo]

Oh

Ok thanks

[tardy panther]

if your on a server I think it’s admincheat saveworld

don’t recall

I also do that when transferring stuff

[regal silo]

Because I’m not going to spend another 5 hours grinding mars for veggie cakes or building ramshackle saddles

I’ve had it with this game

[tardy panther]

because of the saddles and stuff?

[frozen sonnet]

is there like a mod or something that will "farm" unfertalized eggs, cause i need toxic eggs to make a kible but it takes forever to get the eggs

[tardy panther]

or because you loaded in and your still dead?

[tardy panther]

think so in s+

[regal silo]

Still don’t know yet

My pc takes a hella long time to load in ark

[tardy panther]

oh damn

[regal silo]

Didn’t fucking save I’m sad

[tardy panther]

man.

[regal silo]

Well

Time to cheat and pretend it never happened

My play though my rules

[slate widget]

yep, thats how singleplayer works.

[tardy panther]

that’s the mindset I have

[regal silo]

:)

[tardy panther]

it’s only cheating if I decide it is

[regal silo]

Yes

[tardy panther]

because when ark fucks you over it’s never fair

like whenever I transfer shit to another map and the game crashes and I lose all my shit

[regal silo]

Ok so next time

[slate widget]

I have a habit of when I'm looking for dinos If I get bored I just spawn in one to tame lol.

[tardy panther]

sorry for excessive swearing

[regal silo]

Before a boss fight

[slate widget]

I'm too unlucky for finding dinos

[regal silo]

I should do the ‘saveworld’ command

[tardy panther]

yes

[regal silo]

And then start the fight

[slate widget]

go into your files and backup your save.

[tardy panther]

and after too in case your game crashes soon after

[tardy panther]

yes

[tardy panther]

this too

[regal silo]

And if I die I alt f4?

[uneven wyvern]

why is liko spaming the sus thing?

[tardy panther]

yup

[regal silo]

I don’t know how to do that I’ll figure it out

But for now is there a website where you can spawn it Dino’s with specific stats?

I’d like to spawn in my theri army with the similar stats it had

[tardy panther]

were they bred?

[regal silo]

Or at the very leaast have it spawn with upgrade points

[regal silo]

Mhm

[slate widget]

there is a guide in #bobs-with-probs to get to the ini, the saved folder you pass through also has your saves.

[tardy panther]

cant you just breed more then?

[last prawn]

how has ark got 55k viewers on twitch

[frozen sonnet]

know what item would do that in S+?

[regal silo]

That’s the thing

I don’t want to :)

[tardy panther]

no clue what it’s called but it has the same model as the underwater mine iirc

[fallen galleon]

Hi I would like to know if it is necessary to kill rockwell (genesis 2) in alpha to use mjolnir or with the other boss we have enough level?

[tardy panther]

S+ item collector

[regal silo]

Ok thanks I’m assuming it’s in pins

[tardy panther]

valid

[slate widget]

yes sorry, my discord keeps crashing. had to type that 3 times lol

[regal silo]

But there should be a way to GIVE a dino upgrade points right?

Bcs spending all that time murdering baby rexes seems like too much

[tardy panther]

usually in my play through I go into creative mode and get the stuff I lost, usually creatures I lose that are bred aren’t too bad to lose as I can make more easily

[regal silo]

I mean I can do it but like I want an alternative

[regal silo]

That’s true ig I have the original pair

[tardy panther]

exp? yeah give me a minute

[slate widget]

there is GiveExpToTarget <Amount> <FromTribeShare> <PreventSharingWithTribe>

[tardy panther]

that

type true or false for the last two

iirc

[slate widget]

Lol, it says it works with player or dinos but the notes is "Does only work on dinos currently"

[slate widget]

0 or 1

I imagine true/false would work too tho, just says boolean

[tardy panther]

yeah it does

[regal silo]

So jus type this in commands

Or do I have to just face my target

[slate widget]

look at the dino, and do GiveExpToTarget 1000 0 0

[regal silo]

OOOOOO okok

That makes a lot more sense thank you for that c:

[frozen sonnet]

is it possible to get the commands to work for modded items? like im trying to give myself an item but i dont know what the command would be

[frozen hemlock]

has anyone ever compiled a list that shows total food consumption required for raising every creature?

[slate widget]

https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Breeding#Food_Values:~:text=easily kill it.-,Food Values,-Carnivores will only says there, doesn't give all dinos but lists a calculator that says how much food they need.

its the crumplecorn calculator btw.

[lament lantern]

is transfers down

[cosmic birch]

does anyone know how fast a tech rex is

[tardy panther]

hang on I’m a bit confused, if I transfer a cryopod to a different map it loses charge right?

[frozen sonnet]

same speed as a normal rex i would assume

[cosmic birch]

alr

[slate widget]

no, it'll just progress normally

[cosmic birch]

one just pulled up when i was making my base

[tardy panther]

I thought if you transferred a cryopod from a younger map to an older map (as in less vs more days) it’d lose charge?

[slate widget]

I've never heard that.

that'd cause a lot of issues on officails if that was the case. dinos would be dying from transferring to other servers.

[tardy panther]

it’s a single player thing I’m pretty sure

[slate widget]

nah, not a thing there either. the game pauses when you transfer (upload/download) as you leave the game

[tardy panther]

basically when you transfer a creature in a cryopod from a younger map to an older map it’ll get the level difference to make up for the “lost days”

I thought it applied to cryopods

as in them losing charge

[slate widget]

the only issue I know of when transferring cryopods is non-dedis and unclustered servers can have data loss resulting in them being reset to level 1.

[tardy panther]

yeah that’s what happens in reverse iirc

[frozen hemlock]

That's certainly a good start. Thanks

[cosmic birch]

a tooltip is stuck on my hotbar

[tardy panther]

you transfer a creature to where you got it from and it can lose levels I think

[cosmic birch]

anyone know how to fix it?

[slate widget]

the other issue with them is any levels they had gotten from waiting in the cryo, the extra levels are lost

but nothing like the charge going down

[tardy panther]

apparently that’s a thing according to someone on the forums and on Reddit so I was gonna ask how many in game days it would take for a cryopod to die

[slate widget]

its 30 real life days.

[tardy panther]

yeah so 720 hours iirc

because each ark game is an hour

[slate widget]

thats with the game running when in singleplayer.

[frozen hemlock]

mating interval timer definitely gets reset. I'm not sure if unused XP/Levels get reset too.

[tardy panther]

day*

[tardy panther]

yeah I’m aware

[slate widget]

only if it was gotten during the cryopod session afaik

[tardy panther]

so it looks like I can use cryopods till I get to around day 720 on my island save lol

at least when it comes to transferring creatures

[slate widget]

the dinos don't get the levels until they are released so when uploading them it resets their "timer" which removes all that XP

[slate widget]

again, never heard of that lol. I could test if you really want me to. my saves aren't that old but a new save vs one of my saves should still be a couple hours

[tardy panther]

neither have I but I’ve seen some people talk about it so it sorta concerned me

because I don’t use the creature upload thing as it sometimes crashes my game

[slate widget]

lots of people talk about random things that aren't true for games 🤷

[tardy panther]

which ultimately results in the creatures being lost and my items in the uploader

[tardy panther]

yeah true but it’s been on my mind since I saw it so I thought I’d ask

same goes with the question I asked earlier about the commands not being on console lol

[frozen hemlock]

You mean XP gained during the dino sitting in a cryopod in a fridge? If i throw them out before a transfer and see 40 levels are available, cryo it again, then transfer; The levels will still be available?
If I never throw them out before transferring, I never see exactly how many levels were available, the XP gets lost?

[frozen hemlock]

People lie? On the internet? 🤡

[slate widget]

they should if you throw it out. yeah, because the levels aren't giving until it gets released. when it uploads the timer for it resets. like uploading a creature resets the creature itself.

[cloud mauve]

What can I do to grind chitin and keratin on the island

[frozen hemlock]

megatherium in swamp cave

[cloud mauve]

Where is the swamp cave

[frozen hemlock]

any dino will suffice but you can get away with using a low level megatherium for the same purpose, because of the insect buff

[frozen hemlock]

Redwoods

[cloud mauve]

Multiple megas?

[frozen hemlock]

you might need a cryopod to get it through the entrance

[frozen hemlock]

one will do

[cloud mauve]

I’ll go find one rn

[frozen hemlock]

and you will need a gas mask or a full set of scuba gear, or a federation tek suit

[cloud mauve]

Oh

[frozen hemlock]

i haven't actually tested the fed suit yet, but i think it should work 🥲

[cloud mauve]

I don’t have that stuff

[frozen hemlock]

have a lot of beds or sleeping bags outside the cave throw the megatherium in there set to aggressive

you don't need to go deep into the cave if you only want some chitin

[cloud mauve]

I need a bunch for a tree platform

[lament lantern]

some reason i cant transfer to my other server. wont come up on list yet its shows in main list

are transfers down?

[frozen hemlock]

Simply getting through the entrance of the cave will get you lots and lots of chitin. There are a lot of bugs in there. In fact, you don't really need the megatherium to actually be inside, you can run in and out and the insects will follow through the entrance enough to be killed outside

[jolly valve]

Query: which map do you get the net gun on
Query2: if you have the map with the net gun downloaded would you have access to it on the Ragnarok map

[frozen hemlock]

I literally just transferred 30 seconds ago on PC, appears to be successful. What platform are you on?

[lament lantern]

pc steam offical

[slate widget]

answer: fjordur, lost and gen2
answer2: Not unless you transfer or change the ini to auto learn the engrams.

[cloud mauve]

Do you know the coordinates for the cave

[uneven wyvern]

what engrams does val have?

[slate widget]

should be island, scorched and ab

[uneven wyvern]

of it been so long since i been playing val so idk what they have

[frozen hemlock]

if you unlock the engram on whatever map it's available on, then you can craft it on any other map

[slate widget]

as long as that map has the resources, can transfer a gacha to get them tho. (net only has base game resources so in this case it doesn't matter)

[uneven wyvern]

whats the hardest boss to beat?

[slate widget]

pretty sure every boss has a cheese method.

hardest imo would be gen2 not because of the boss but because of getting to it. alpha gen2 missions are pain.

[uneven wyvern]

i mean without doing the cheese method

[frozen hemlock]

alpha dragon, island

[uneven wyvern]

alpha dragon is easy imo

[slate widget]

most bosses are just rush with a dino.

ab is unique but easily done on foot

[frozen hemlock]

what's your tactic?

[uneven wyvern]

i used thero with few rhinos with cakes when i killed the alpha dragon

[rough pagoda]

anybody know why i can’t host a non dedicated session? any time i try to click host and accept nothing happens. i’ve already verified the games files

[uneven wyvern]

with 1 yuti

[frozen hemlock]

mutations?

[uneven wyvern]

idrk the theros wasnt mine and i done it long time ago

[slate widget]

what map? can you join a server on that map?

[pale relic]

hey can some one help me out im tryig to get a thumbnails but i dont know how

[young ibex]

hey any 1 wanna play ark with me dm me (no mods btw)

[slate widget]

#1110949794907684965

[frozen hemlock]

i don't think it can be done with those dinos without a good stack of melee mutations at the very least

[uneven wyvern]

i done it and only lost few dinos

[rough pagoda]

oh. so perhaps i downloaded val and tried to join rag 😭

[uneven wyvern]

i had full armor and came out with no armor but pants

[frozen hemlock]

were they mutated in melee and was this on a dedicated server, not single player?

[uneven wyvern]

it was on official server

[frozen hemlock]

dinos must have been mutated, there's no way without it

were you shotgunning?

[uneven wyvern]

i didnt bring no shot gun

i only had the dino i was using

[frozen hemlock]

someone must have given you some very op dinos 🙂

[uneven wyvern]

or i was lucky i survived with pants

[frozen hemlock]

But the dragon isn't like that. You simply don't survive if your dinos aren't op 😅

[uneven wyvern]

then explain why i survive with only flak pants

[frozen hemlock]

because someone gave you op dinos

[uneven wyvern]

i only used 1 dino i borrowed and i brought my own flak

[frozen hemlock]

you used 1 dino and 1 set of flak, against the alpha dragon on the island, and killed it? Doubt.exe

You said therizinos and rhinos were there, so it wasn't just you

[uneven wyvern]

yeah i had help

and i only used 1 dino i borrowed

[brisk kelp]

You’ve changed your story, you said rhinos, theris and a yuta, then just theris, then just one dino

[frozen hemlock]

even if you had help, all the dinos must have been very good dinos i.e. bred with mutations

[uneven wyvern]

prob it been awhile so i have no contact with the owner of the dino anymore

[frozen hemlock]

[uneven wyvern]

like no joke it been a few years since i talked to the person

[frozen hemlock]

that's fine

[uneven wyvern]

on unofficial i brought giga's into a boss fight i think idrk

[frozen hemlock]

i'm just saying the alpha dragon isn't easy and can't be done without special dinos in the vast majority of cases

[uneven wyvern]

ant the biggest dino allowed to do boss's was rex's?

[frozen hemlock]

maybe 10 players with ascendant shotguns can do it with primitive dinos but i'm not certain about that

[long dome]

Is anyone here who is good at vault hunts?

[frozen hemlock]

yes, gigas in boss fights are not usual and definitely not allowed with default settings

[frozen hemlock]

what is a vault hunt?

[uneven wyvern]

its doable with mods tho

[frozen sonnet]

why does the level of the dinos from S+ transmitter dino scan have a ? instead of showing the level?

[frozen hemlock]

you might need more tek generators? if i remember S+ correctly

it's either multiple generators, or multiple transmitters that are required to get the full information

[long dome]

You need to find a vault based on clues

The clues are ark related

[frozen hemlock]

have you tried chatgpt?

I'm not saying it will be good but i'm curious to know how well it knows ark trivia

[jolly valve]

Understood

[echo oyster]

yo anyone play ark?

[frozen hemlock]

no, worst game ever

[echo oyster]

i agree

[jolly valve]

Query again: I haven't gotten a concrete or recent answer after a few good hours of searching, can you breed wyverns?
Query4: how do you find higher level creatures to tame? The highest I've seen was a 52 I think

[echo oyster]

my game crashes everytime i click start

dumb asf

[frozen hemlock]

52 is an unusual multiple so first i would check your difficulty settings

[outer escarp]

guys who want to play ark rn if so join my vc @everyone @here

[frozen hemlock]

yikes

0.3, I remember from last night
It's a non-dedicated session that I host for my friends since my PC is the beefiest

I don't remember the exact number it was just barely above 50

[frozen hemlock]

You need to increase the difficulty and then, maybe, possibly do a dino wipe to clear old wild dino spawns

[jolly valve]

Does it wipe any tames you have too?

[frozen hemlock]

no, there is a command that is specific to wiping wild dinos

[cloud mauve]

I just got jumped by a micro, troodon, and megatherium what a lovely combo😍

[cloud mauve]

I had that problem

You have to make sure the maximum difficulty box is checked

And set your difficulty to 5

Then input

DestroyWildDinos

And all wilds will die and respawn the new ones

[solemn wing]

gaming

[jolly valve]

Ahhhhh

Ty ty

[frozen sonnet]

i have the most ammount of gens and transmitters you can have

[frozen hemlock]

are you playing single player?

[regal silo]

Does lowering the wild dino stats per level decrease their dmg

[frozen sonnet]

yeah

[regal silo]

Specifically the damage stat

I feel the wild Dino’s on my island do way too much dmg

[frozen hemlock]

first google result suggests preventing hiberation by launching the game with an extra command

"You are probably playing Singleplayer. That's called hibernation which is turned on by default. Hibernation makes everything freeze as long as it's not loaded. That polishes the performance by a good bit, but you cannot see the details of the dinos anymore.
To disable hibernation (which makes the performance a bit worse) you need to do:

1. Right click on Ark in your game library.
2. Select "Properties".
3. Click on "Set Launch Options" and add:
   -preventhibernation"

[frozen hemlock]

why do you think they do too much damage?

wear armour and get hit less :^)

[lavish trail]

Is there a way to fix Bloodstalker webs being invisible?

[frozen hemlock]

That's not true at all

[atomic torrent]

Yes it is

Ill die on that hill

[frozen hemlock]

Sounds like you pinged a mod for a very annoying reason

[atomic torrent]

I disagree

[frozen hemlock]

Whatever. This discussion isn't related to Ark

[fair wyvern]

dinos are cool

no

[slate widget]

its not ark, its outside drama.

[atomic torrent]

Dinos are cool

True, i guess.
I’ll drop it

[atomic torrent]

Will cryopods be in ASA at launch 🤔 i thought i saw a post of a discussion where you and someone were saying they might not be

*screenshot of a discussion

[slate widget]

we don't know, nothing has been said since dollie said they were deciding afaik

[atomic torrent]

Ah gotcha

[elfin swan]

will ASE receive any more new dinos?

[tough yarrow]

No, the Rhyniognatha was the final creature.

[uneven wyvern]

Wth is rhynio?

[tough yarrow]

https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Rhyniognatha

[uneven wyvern]

Ooh

[elfin swan]

and how many new dinos will he coming ASA in total before ark 2?

[uneven wyvern]

That's the last one I believe

[tough yarrow]

One for each map AFAIK. So far we have the fasolasuchus for scorched, and the gigantoraptor for ragnarok. So 10 or 11 dinos total, plus a new story map that may have new dinos.

[olive relic]

If you know where I can find a PvE server discord dm me

[zenith creek]

Yo I'm transitioning into metal, any tips ?

[slate widget]

rag not ab

ab is the current one

[unreal yarrow]

place a forge near a good metal source

Since it's super heavy

and craft gear there

[blazing dirge]

I don’t understand circular bases

[prisma sand]

Get an anky and an argy

[blazing dirge]

Real

[spring sandal]

best difficulty level?

[slate widget]

5 (max wild 150) is what most people use.

[spring sandal]

was on 1 and I literally like can't even start the game, every dino is over lvl 50 and there's raptors on the beach 😭

[blazing dirge]

I hate to say this but

You just need to get good

[slate widget]

the ingame slider is not difficulty its offset.

[spring sandal]

Lol I'd love to see you somehow fight off lvl 98 raptors at lvl 3 with a basic spear.

[blazing dirge]

Bolas

[spring sandal]

🤷‍♂️

[hexed kiln]

What happens to your stuff if you die in a cave

I cant seem to find my items

[spring sandal]

again, level 3.

[blazing dirge]

Lure them away then

[slate widget]

it can change depending on the map you play without changing settings as each map has its own "base" difficulty

[blazing dirge]

Or spawn somewhere else 😱

[hexed kiln]

Bruv I am here too

[spring sandal]

ah gotcha

[brisk kelp]

If you died in lava or ice spikes then gone forever but otherwise you should be able to find it

[spring sandal]

you always toxic or? must be fun at parties

[slate widget]

there is a guide in #bobs-with-probs in the pins if you want to fix it. if you just play one map it doesn't really matter tho

[hexed kiln]

I died by an arthropod and can't find it

[blazing dirge]

Not even tryna be toxic, just returning the energy 🗣️💯

[hexed kiln]

Eh I guess I lost it
I was a lot but nothing I can't recover from

[brisk kelp]

Idk, technically it should still be there

[spring sandal]

my original comment was a question, idk how you somehow derived negative energy from that, attention seeking or sum ong

[brisk kelp]

Check all the bags you see, your body might have been eaten

[hexed kiln]

I am sad about losing my ascendant sword tho

[spring sandal]

anyway thx for the help 👍

[hexed kiln]

There is no bags

[brisk kelp]

Are you where you died?

[blazing dirge]

I don’t need attention, I’m playing Ab 🗣️💯

[spring sandal]

ouch

[spring sandal]

sounds epic good for ya

[hexed kiln]

It dealt 500 dmg

[spring sandal]

gawdam

[blazing dirge]

Swords are mid

[hexed kiln]

I guess I was too op for me anyway

[blazing dirge]

Try shotguns

[hexed kiln]

I usually use shotguns

But the sword was just smth else

[blazing dirge]

Then why you using a sword 😭

[hexed kiln]

It dealt more dmg

[blazing dirge]

Even if it does hella damage a shotgun will always be better

[spring sandal]

cause he felt like it? 😐

[hexed kiln]

And it's better for raptors

[brisk kelp]

Swords are good if you’re being swarmed by a bunch of small things like spiders

[spring sandal]

this dude can't lay off the toxicity 😂

[blazing dirge]

I’m not even being toxic, I’m just saying shotguns are almost always better in almost every situation

[brisk kelp]

Plus swords don’t cost ammo so I say use it where it’s practical

[hexed kiln]

Raptors on the beach?!

[spring sandal]

always found swords had a weird hit box didn't do as well as a pike

[brisk kelp]

Ya but pikes don’t hit multiple targets very well

[hexed kiln]

Nah man if you respawn next to a raptor you might aswell make a new save file

[spring sandal]

yea two of them, tough boys

[spring sandal]

true, I liked the swing mechanic of the sword

[brisk kelp]

It’s very handy for caves

[spring sandal]

I could see that

[brisk kelp]

I highly recommend them if you go into caves

[hexed kiln]

Unless an arthro one shots you

[blazing dirge]

Titanoboas:

[spring sandal]

never tried it, caves were the enemy of me lol

[brisk kelp]

Lol in that case, gun

[hexed kiln]

How tf did an arthro one shot me anyway?!

[blazing dirge]

Allow me to introduce you to Megatherium

[hexed kiln]

It is what it is

[blazing dirge]

The mvp of caves

[hexed kiln]

Not available on mobile

[brisk kelp]

I found direwolves very good for caves

[blazing dirge]

That explains it

[hexed kiln]

Why is the mobile version so much more worse

[prisma sand]

Armor ain’t shit to Arthro

[hexed kiln]

Yea they are

[blazing dirge]

Because if it was anything like the console the phones would explode

[hexed kiln]

I have over 200 hp

[prisma sand]

HP ain’t shit to Arthro

[hexed kiln]

What it's op or smth

[brisk kelp]

Idk I haven’t played mobile in years, it’s hella nostalgic tho, that got me into ark

[prisma sand]

It’s a bug that melts armor and can damage any structure in the game.

[spring sandal]

ark mobile was dog 😭😭

[brisk kelp]

True, but it got me hooked lol

And it had some cool features

Small things, but cool

[blazing dirge]

On mobile I tamed a lvl 100 something Rex at lvl 15 with a bow 🗣️💯

[hexed kiln]

Don't play it again
It has the old kibble system
It has bad graphics
It lags a lot
And there are a lot of inconveniences in mobile version which are very annoying while breeding

[spring sandal]

whatever works works, I just could get over the graphics and control

couldn't*

[slate widget]

there is a revamp coming to bring it inline with the switch version. last we heard was in the roadmap tho

[brisk kelp]

Ya I don’t plan to, but it would be cool if I could relive my experiences as a wee lad learning about ark on my crappy ipad, such fond memories

[hexed kiln]

Yea I mean someone had to start somewhere

[brisk kelp]

Plus I never made it over level 25 on mobile so I didn’t really see all the downsides lol

[hexed kiln]

How long ago?

[blazing dirge]

Can’t believe I played console Ark before mobile Ark

[slate widget]

was march 31st. supposed to be "at the year's end"

[frail dew]

Anyone playing xbox official right now

[hexed kiln]

2023 end?!

[slate widget]

their words not mine, it is 2023 😂

[frail dew]

Why are all official severs dead in xbox

[hexed kiln]

Bruv why do they need so much time for implementing this when they have already implemented the code in ark

Like a few changes to the code and bam you got yourself a new update

[slate widget]

there is a big difference between a switch and a bunch of mobile phones.

[frail dew]

@hexed kiln Why are all official severs dead in xbox

[hexed kiln]

Idek why there isn't an "enable mating" option in ark

[hexed kiln]

Idk don't ask me

[frail dew]

Bruh

[slate widget]

there is.

[blazing dirge]

I’m pretty sure there is

[hexed kiln]

In mobile there isnt

There is a neutering option for some reason
