ark-survival-ascended

[tranquil geyser]

45 $ USD and 40$ if you buy it on the day it comes out

[polar turtle]

dam

[tranquil geyser]

Well if it's a better game with better optimization and better graphics and some new features well it's worth it

[polar turtle]

ig

also i have a question u play more singleplayer or multiplayer ?

[tranquil geyser]

It depends many people play single player and many people play online but when I play online I play on my own server

[polar turtle]

oh

just tamed my first rex like hour ago

[spare crescent]

I want to go back to the old days by dominating official servers in smalltribes pvp

[polar turtle]

the metal billboard trap is great

[void dove]

$40 for Ark Asc, with all of its DLCs and new content is actually a pretty fantastic price. Kinds sucks since you bought Ark so recently

[odd cedar]

the ark attachment system is so stupid

[spare crescent]

Nobody comes from the old days on PvP official servers?

[void dove]

But if you really enjoy Ark, it will be worth it

[odd cedar]

like who the hell at wild card thought it was a good idea to input the system they made

tek gets no attachments, you cant have an armor attachment with a skin, you only get one gun attachment. its actually insane

[void dove]

Yeah, it's not great.

[polar turtle]

wait official servers dont restart days ?

[void dove]

Scope + Darts plz.

[void dove]

Usually no

[odd cedar]

scope + silencer + flashlight and laser

you can fit them all on a gun with darts, they just dont let you

[void dove]

Some special server modes do, like ArkPoc which wipe every 28 days or so

[polar turtle]

flashlight and laser would not work because irl flashlight and laser are in the same place on gun i think

[odd cedar]

can attach a flashlight or laser to the side of the barrel or combine the two which could be an attachment unlocked at the same time as the holo

[modern cedar]

So im on genesis 1 theres a few dinos I have zero access to as im on singleplayer what are your guys opinions on spawning in untamed versions of dinos because of this?

[neon oar]

it would work, it depends on gun and there also exsists flashlight/laser modules that just work as both

[polar turtle]

yea

anyone know good server that has decent pop and wipes quite often ?

[sonic shuttle]

Gamma Rockwell down. You’ll look at me funny but that was my first ascension. Didn’t do it yet on the island or scorched earth.

[tranquil geyser]

PvE or pvp

[polar turtle]

pve

[tranquil geyser]

Have a look in #1110925695900713072

[polar turtle]

i dont like pvp last time i played it flying guy came to me and killed me with my lvl 10 parasaur

[void dove]

Nice!
Rockwell is kinda tough for a first boss

[vale thistle]

What would you say is better for gathering metal

Ankylo: 4.3 Gathering Efficiency 85% Weight Reduction for metal

Magmasaur 4.4 Gathering Efficiency 75% Weight Reduction for metal

[void dove]

It's single player, do what you want

Magma is faster, has better reach, and isn't attacked by everything under the sun

But Anky can be carried with an Argentavis, so better movement between gathering areas

[vale thistle]

I went to Lost Island & tamed a rhynio

For better weight

[uneven cedar]

I'd say magmasaur because they're a lot faster and have a lot more weight

[vale thistle]

I also just found a 145 quetzal as I was looking for a metal node at 51.9 lat 29.9 lon

Should I tame it?

[void dove]

If you want a Quetz, sure

They're pretty rare so high levels are a pain to get

[static fjord]

they look cool so why not

you could put some rear mounted miniguns on the platform saddle and go crazy or something

[vale thistle]

Thanks for the idea

I tamed the 145 quetz

Is it also weird that I’m eating kibble?

[void dove]

Kind of a waste, but you do you
99% of the time I eat Raw Meat because I'm too lazy to cook it and let it spoil

[odd cedar]

reading that actually hurt me on a deep level

[eternal merlin]

I’ve just DM’d my Quetz platform I used to use for transporting resources 👍🏼

[odd cedar]

if you take one trip to kill a big dino, you can cook a couple stacks of cooked prime meat and youre set for weeks

[eternal merlin]

and there’s me cooking Steak Sauté lmao

[odd cedar]

is there a way for me to quit the character creation menu?

after uploading my guy it opens the menu and i dont want to make a new person

[modern cedar]

is using a higher tier kibble for lower tier dinos a bad thing? I can much more easily make exceptional kibble then I can make lets say superior kibble because I have theris and I have a citronal farm, Makes it so I dont have to farm mushrooms, prime jerky, and sap

[odd cedar]

if its easier then its fine

[void dove]

It'll give the same taming effectiveness, so use whatever is easiest for you to make

[odd cedar]

any kibble above or the same as what a dino wants will work

[silent matrix]

Suche spieler für pve 🙂

[eternal merlin]

On Xbox I press the Home button and it lets me back out to Main menu so let’s me change map etc and Not Create character

[rugged narwhal]

Just joined

[modern cedar]

soul terminal so nice, getting infinite unferti eggs

[odd cedar]

i wanted to send a funny glitch but guess what you cant send pictures here

it would make life so much easier if you could my god

[static fjord]

why not just pause the game and exit to main menu

[iron grotto]

You dont make custom recipes? I prefer my Lamb Chops, but always have a Shitburger at hand for my tribe mates. They will never guess the secret ingredient

[eternal merlin]

I’ll try that… I usually press Home and back and it let me go into other maps… Will try your way… still learning after so so many years

[eternal merlin]

💩 Burger lol

[iron grotto]

Better than Polymer Soup imo

[static fjord]

the real best meal is a tek sleeping pod

[eternal merlin]

I think I’ve found 3 maybe 4 pieces of Paper for customer recipes lmao 😂 Haven’t dabbled with it to be honest… gimme some tips lmao 😂 Hold the 💩

[iron grotto]

Well you can make some serious food and drink with it, but keep in mind the more nutrition you ram into them, the heavier they get

[odd cedar]

how do i get my uploaded items on gen 1 and 2? no obelisks on them

[static fjord]

i recommend making regular kibble, can tame almost every useful medium dino or smaller and is very easy to make.

[static fjord]

mission terminals act as obelisks

[tranquil geyser]

Mission Terminal

[static fjord]

go into the mission section in your inventory and select track dispatcher/mission terminal, then go to one

[odd cedar]

ok

[static fjord]

weirdly enough gen 1 has some funky modern obelisk looking things that are unfortunately not functional

[odd cedar]

gen 1 is so weird

it has a nice variety but its not smooth at all, you gotta go through some clunky teleportation and there is not a single good biome since all of it is inconvenient to set up base and has a bunch of gimmicks

[glacial scarab]

Whats better longneck or tek bow

For taming

[rugged narwhal]

I feel longneck, partially because I didn't make it far enough for tek bow

[static fjord]

ironically you can base pretty much everywhere that isnt avalanche or meteor zone since the teleportation allows you to reach high value reeources regardless of location.

[odd cedar]

tek bow is faster, stronger, easier ammo and easier aim

but super expensive to craft and even reach the level to get

but i do love it, its versatility and how nice it is to use make it a personal top pick

[static fjord]

nothing like getting a good tek bow only to see that dura slowly drain and feeling guilty for every arrow because you know damn well that repair cost is gonna put you into bankruptcy

[odd cedar]

worth every shot

no

[modern cedar]

Best way to get organic poly on gen 1? theres penguins on ice lake but they are really slow and give little

[static fjord]

none, gen 1 polymer farm is farming obsidian and buying paste from hln-a

you can hunt karkinos in lunar but theyre so rare that i doubt you'll find more than 3

[modern cedar]

that sucks

[static fjord]

though theres SO much obsidian and paste on the map that it isnt much of an issue

[modern cedar]

other than the ice lake is there any other beaver spawns?

[vale thistle]

On what map

Cause I know where they can spawn on fjordur

[polar turtle]

on map ragnarok is it a lot different than island ?

or almost the same but few dinos are new ?

[slate widget]

the free maps have paid DLC dinos Except center and there are some free map exclusive dinos there as well.

[modern cedar]

gen 1

I just had level 400 theris and was doing the mammoth hunt mission on alpha all had 40k health and all got 1 shot

how the fuck do i beat that shit

[vale thistle]

How much health did they have & what level were they

[modern cedar]

it was in the first message i sent lmao

level 400 and 40k health each

[vale thistle]

Omg

I thought you said you have 400 theris

Not level 400 theris

Well, had

[ancient badge]

Usually use mate boosted top gigas

[long laurel]

Contact the ftc about studio wildcard and snailgames exclusive partnership with nitrado and extorting players to Pay to rent a server if they want there offical save data it should be classified under unfair trade practices and they lied in the roadmap and told us our saves would be available for single player non dedi and now there trying to charge us for it

[rocky moth]

Hey guys, does anyone know exact spawnpoints of barys? Im looking for good bary for cave exploration and i cant find any

[sonic shuttle]

Oh bah! Brought Ascendant Megaloceros to The Island and he curled up into a ball and went to sleep.

Guess the always awake is only for Aberration…

[fresh ferry]

Wuutttt

Did u feed them raw meat??

[brazen otter]

We got some news about the cryo at the start of asa

[unborn dragon]

will the slingshot make the thing it hits agressive? i need to tame a turtle.

[sharp mountain]

Just use tranq arrows

[unborn dragon]

dont have that, im lvl 7.

[modern cedar]

Yes

turtles are really slow though

so shouldnt be much problem

[unborn dragon]

thanks!

[past sentinel]

Cryopods have made people lazy, it time to start learning how to move without them cause Ark 2 won't have them likely

[unborn dragon]

is the club better than the slingshot?

[past sentinel]

For earlier game yes

[unborn dragon]

sorry for asking so many questions, got the game a few minutes ago and im pretty confused.

[past sentinel]

Get bolos and knock out a Pteranodon with the club after you bolo it, but you will most likely need to bolo it multiple times.

Bolo does wear off

[pastel niche]

Where can i play on official pvp and not get raided/wiped everyday

[past sentinel]

You're not, as been mentioned in #ark-2 official PvP is where tryhard mega tribes go and just out right trolls.

[pastel niche]

any unofficial pvp servers that lets bobs thrive

[unborn dragon]

how long will the night last?

[past sentinel]

That gonna be depending what you look for. Discord ran servers with specific rules on PvP would probably be your best bet.

I mainly stick to PvE but I did join one a couple years ago that had PvP arenas set up and active mods where it was PvE with the ability to take your dinos to specific PvP areas to test out how well you are built up with others and base raiding is strictly prohibited.

But that was quite a while ago, I imagine could probably find something similar

[pastel niche]

ok ill look for that

I just recently on it on PC. I used to play ark mobile it was called PVX

PC just has PVP and PVE and all modes?

[vale thistle]

What stats should my Andrew have?

[silent matrix]

suche duo partner

[severe kayak]

What happened to all the metal nodes in fjoldur? I went to supposedly every location that’s supposed to have metal nodes but nothing.

[vale thistle]

Head to 60 lat 23 lon or head to 49 lat 89 lon

Cause that’s where I get my metal from

[unborn dragon]

is 2 clubs enough for a parasaur?

[past sentinel]

On official could not tell you, I joined my friends when they were already established on official. Only time I clubed dino was a Pterandon on unofficial servers with moderately boosted

[unborn dragon]

im on a local solo

[tired bough]

Selam

[quartz yarrow]

so any new chang game play things coming with asa on drop

any new dinos for the island or anything?

any new types of servers

[spark nest]

Is it normal that the base game is 171GB?

[proud sun]

Is ark 1 being shut down true?

[fossil trellis]

officials close Sep 30

[proud sun]

Oh idc about official

[slow knoll]

just officials?

[proud sun]

Apparently sp and dedicated will be fine

[fossil trellis]

yes and yes just officials

[proud sun]

Can you transfer to other maps on non dedicated

[burnt thunder]

When you guys do you think we'll see asa trailer or at least gameplay reveal?

Because we're already really close to the release

[pliant locust]

on launch day, as usual. they never manage to release ingame stuff ahead, despite promising multiple times to "show more within the coming weeks"

[past sentinel]

Still have the entire month of September to go through so still quite a window to release a gameplay trailer

[rain cedar]

Why are my wild dino levels so low? I was .9 difficulty so I max it out to 1, but not much different

[quartz yarrow]

ark official servers should wipe every year

[modern cedar]

Can someone help? I logged out of my SP world earlier and every time I try to log in to my world my game crashes

[void dove]

Mod issue? Missing textures/assets? Hard to troubleshoot without more information

[modern cedar]

I can join a vc and screenshare?

[void dove]

At work right now

[modern cedar]

persistentgameplaysublevel_physics

it crashes when it gets to that when loading in

[void dove]

What were you doing when you originally crashed?

[modern cedar]

I loaded in perfectly fine realized my difficulty level was reset to 1 and hadnt changed it back to 50 left changed it to 50 and now it wont let me back in my world, I already tried changing it back to 1 and that didnt work either

[severe kayak]

Spawning Dinos in no longer works?

[unborn dragon]

How do i skip the night

[severe kayak]

I know I can no longer find gmsummon commands online anymore. But this is the only command I can find. Therizino_Character_BP_C

And it doesn’t work.

[severe kayak]

Settimeofday 8:00

[unborn dragon]

is there any way without console commands?

[severe kayak]

Not that I know of.

[unborn dragon]

My lvl 3 parasaur is gonna get destroyed...

[fresh ferry]

is Artifact of the Brute under the wootah?

[void dove]

On Island? Yes, Western Water cave

[fresh ferry]

ohh okaay do u know where shall i storage the organic polymer?

[vale thistle]

For me it’s 156.5GB

[unborn dragon]

128.15

[proud sun]

Can you transfer to others map on non dedicated

[pastel niche]

anybody on pvp 208

official

[viscid heron]

You cant just increase the offset, also need to increase the overrideofficial difficulty.
2 settings effect levels/max levels.
for every 1 you increase the override official, you get an additional 30 levels to your max
for example,
offset:1
overrideofficial:8 gives you max level for normal dinos of 240.

---

On a different note, any server admins able to help with this?
I have a player with an argentavis, trying to carry another player on a doed.
You can carry the doed when there isnt a player on it, but soon as someone does, it just drops it.
Fairly sure theres a bit of code for this, but cannot find this.
On pvp, weight is sufficient for both dinos, both players are in the same tribe.

[void dove]

Hitbox issue. It's hard to manage, but possible to grab the Doed with a rider still on it

[viscid heron]

Hmm, would make sense, will test that further, thank you 🙂

[void dove]

Try coming from behind the Doed and grabbing early, like you're trying to snatch the tail

[vale thistle]

If you have them, then you can just upload then go the map you want to be at

If it’s the DLC’s then make sure your have them

[burnt vale]

do you know of the bug that happens where you can just suddenly gain or lose more of less of a certain stat on dinos or yourself

[vale thistle]

Not really, unless it’s caused by your game crashing

[burnt vale]

it never crashed it happened while i was offline

and the server offline

[dusty sierra]

Guys how do i make Excepcional kibble ?

[crisp elk]

Extra large egg (bronto, giga, basilisk, focal chili, rare flower, 10 mejo, 5 fiber and water

[dusty sierra]

ty

[fresh ferry]

unntameable creatures like in caves are also topoor immune?

oh okay its not

but i wanted to see on my eyes

[modern cedar]

Anyone can join a vc and help me fix my world? it crashes my game every time i try to join the wworld

[unborn dragon]

i cant vc, but have you tried restarting the game?

[severe kayak]

Is longneck rifles still the best method for tranqs?

[modern cedar]

it crashes so dont really have much of a choice in restarting it

[severe kayak]

I need to find a different discord. 🤣

[modern cedar]

Yes

they are in vanilla

[severe kayak]

Appreciate it.

[unborn dragon]

How do i lvl up fast? spamming the cloth shirts is the best one ive found.

[modern cedar]

which map are u on

[unborn dragon]

Island

[fresh ferry]

i pinged u

in #bobs-with-probs

[modern cedar]

kill alphas mainly

[modern cedar]

ty ill try that

[unborn dragon]

i have cloth armor, 2 parasaurs (low level) and a spear.

[modern cedar]

note runs probs

[unborn dragon]

should i get a flying thing first?

[modern cedar]

yeah get notes until ur level 45 or whatever to get pter saddle and then use one of those

[unborn dragon]

where should i find some notes

that i can reach from south-1 and a lvl 5 parasaur

[modern cedar]

imma send u a youtube link if thats fine?

[unborn dragon]

ok

[sour skiff]

yo anyone down to play with me?

[open tiger]

when i join my friend non-dedicated session why does it always say timed out??

[balmy drift]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[fathom yacht]

How do I get alpha rex tooth in extinction?

Do they drop from enraged rexes from purple drops?

[unborn dragon]

@modern cedar i did not get the Pteranadon yet.... I've been having internet issues. Sorry for not using dm, i cant use that right now.

[modern cedar]

pretty sure you can use them on alll eggs

[modern cedar]

looked on reddit this is what i found

So far seen 3, various locations around the wasteland/ border of sanctuary. West side towards sunken forest, north on wasteland under the giant ribcage, and boarder of sanctuary running with a pack of corrupted rexes. None spotted to the south so far

Easily found near the North corners at the map where the most dangerous spawns are heavy, such as corrupted deathworms, gigas, reapers and wyverns. They spawn in the form of an Enraged Corrupted Rex.

Logged into my server this morning and there was a 272 and 240 alpha rex sitting right outside my base in the aberration like area.

[unborn dragon]

can i tame a pt with a bola and 2 clubs?

[modern cedar]

it should work but i would suggest a slingshot/tranq arrows instead

what level is the PT

[unborn dragon]

3

[modern cedar]

oh

LMAOOO yes clubs will work

used to a bit higher of levels

[sonic shuttle]

Windowed, windowed fullscreen, fullscreen. I’d like to know which gives better fps?

[unborn dragon]

I watched Paulsoaresjr's ark series and he tamed low levels and got them to high level for efficiency.

[unborn dragon]

1 bola?

[modern cedar]

yeah lmao 5 headshots and itll be asleep

[modern cedar]

early game low levels might seem good but its gonna make your progression slower

[unborn dragon]

can i use normal raw meat?

[modern cedar]

you should try and rush tranq arrows and tame a level 40-90 stego or trike to get more berries for better tames

Yes normal meat will work should only take 7

[unborn dragon]

ok good, im not ready to fight a raptor for prime meat

[modern cedar]

raptors dont drop prime

[unborn dragon]

they wont eat the meat

[unborn dragon]

Oh, sorry im very new to the game.

[modern cedar]

the PT wont eat normal raw meat?

your good dww

the easiest dinos to kill to get prime early game are the dimetrodon and hyaenodon be careful about the hyena though they are always in packs of about 3-4 but bolas make them easy to pick off and kill

also penguins

[unborn dragon]

the pt just didnt eat and flew away

[modern cedar]

are you on a server or singleplayer?

[unborn dragon]

singleplayer

[modern cedar]

any mods?

[unborn dragon]

idk how to get mods, no.

[modern cedar]

can you list everything you did up to it flying away?

[unborn dragon]

came over on my parasaur, got it with a bola, hit it with my club until it got knocked out, gave it meat, and narcotics, went and killed a moschops for meat, came back, and it was gone.

[modern cedar]

Would you be able to join a vc and screenshare you doing that again?

[fathom yacht]

ty, actually got them from a purple drop that conveniently dropped while i was looking for it

[unborn dragon]

cant vc, sorry.

[modern cedar]

Oh nice

well what you said you did should have worked

it might have died while you were gone

[unborn dragon]

no carnavores near it, and 2 parasaurs on neutral protecting it.

[modern cedar]

was it near water?

[unborn dragon]

in the edge of a forest by a beach

[modern cedar]

might have glitched into the ground

ark will be ark

[unborn dragon]

this game has an insane amount of bugs too?

[modern cedar]

Yep

[unborn dragon]

my 3 most played games are full of bugs

[modern cedar]

so many bugs and the wildcard devs dont fix any

they are making a new game so fingers crossed most will be fixed

[unborn dragon]

there are 2 really loud Brontosoaruses (target is lvl 4) near my base, think 2 mate boosted lvl 8 parasaurs can beat it?

[modern cedar]

Sadly no

[unborn dragon]

my screen will keep shaking then

[modern cedar]

even low level brontos have high health/damage

[unborn dragon]

can i tame it with a bola and a club?

[modern cedar]

brontos?

[unborn dragon]

yes

[modern cedar]

bolas wont work on them lmao they are too big

[unborn dragon]

big bola

[modern cedar]

and trying to club one is going to get u merked

even the chain bola wont work

[unborn dragon]

are there any safe to reach explorer's notes near south-1?

[modern cedar]

I do not know the explorer note locations I dont play the island

[unborn dragon]

should i beat island before i do other maps?

[modern cedar]

Probably, make sure you upload your character each time and download it each time

will raise your level and let you keep your stats

[zenith creek]

Yo i died in magmasaur cave lava, is there anyway I can get my items ? I can't see them

[unborn dragon]

can i edit my character after i made them?

[modern cedar]

if you died in lava very low chance you are getting that back

[modern cedar]

There is not a way other than making a completely new one

[unborn dragon]

i forgot to make a funny one....

[modern cedar]

lmao

[ripe magnet]

whats the most fun mobility dino on the island?

[modern cedar]

rhynio

pteradon is the fastest tho

[ripe magnet]

like i want a dino with mobility like rock drake

[mossy shore]

Wait where are beavers and ankys at on ragnarok, I asked yesterday and someone answered but I can’t find their answer and I forgot what they said

[modern cedar]

there are none

island is very boring when it comes to cool dinos

[ripe magnet]

where is rhynio?

where do I find it?

[mossy shore]

I’m a newer player so preferably no places that are gonna have dangerous dinos

[modern cedar]

Beavers are in one of the ponds near the castle and ankys are on the edge of the lava biome

[modern cedar]

around swamps but are insanely rare

[mossy shore]

Ummm I’m on Viking bay, where would the castle be and where would the lava biome be

[ripe magnet]

whats the lore map that will have good dinos?

[modern cedar]

gen 2

[silent matrix]

And extinction

[modern cedar]

best free DLC is fjordur though it has the most extra creatures for a free one

[modern cedar]

Can I message you? I have a screenshot saying where it is

[modern cedar]

No lore but tons of gameplay and 3 new creatures plus quite a few of modded ones

[mossy shore]

Yea

[ripe magnet]

ragnarok

[modern cedar]

?

[ripe magnet]

the best

[modern cedar]

ragnorak isnt really the best. Is a good map for starting ark with learning but not many new creatures, no lore and gets repetetive

the only 3 things it has is easy wyverns, really good beaver dams, and is easy to start on

no lore, not many unique creatures and gets boring after a while

[green ivy]

bro i got 2 unicorns spawned at the same time on the island

[modern cedar]

thats a bug lmao

[green ivy]

ik

[odd cedar]

I quit se one time because I was a lil dumb

See I just learned about about admin commands, so I spawned in a giga next to my base to tame it thinking it was gonna be like a rex, had no idea about gmsummon, forcetame, kill or destroywilddinos

And that thing wiped out every single Dino I had in seconds

[slate widget]

yeah, gigas are pretty wild

[odd cedar]

My last Dino was a daeodon who I tamed at the start of my world, he starved to death cause I lost everything

[silent matrix]

Rip

[rough abyss]

Ark either hates me or feels bad for me
Cuz I got 3 ASCENDANT REX SADDLES AND A ASCENDANT REX SADDLE BP
Ik that's good but, I'm using spinos for the bosses.

[raven matrix]

anybody got old official base and they don't play anymore im tryna play before wipe and seee all the ridicouls tames health and melee lol or invite me to a tribe to play i have 6k hours total between pc and ps4

[calm quest]

Hi

Any mobile player

[unborn dragon]

If i beat the game on island, can i return to the island or stay there?

[odd cedar]

once you ascend on the island, you can upload your character at an obelisk which will allow you to play with your guy on another world. but after killing the boss you are automatically uploaded so you can just start on the next world right now

[drowsy thistle]

Do I have to edit the code in someway to make my island drops be as good as my scorched earth ones

The island was good scorched is bad and idk why I have the same code in

[prisma sand]

Yeah. Its the loot quality multiplier

[drifting barn]

yee scorch needed a lot more love. The vibe I have seen from the community is that it was a let down. Wyverns were cool and raised the power cap too quickly. Wish they would have spent more time on SE. I joined it for a few hours and lost all interest

[odd cedar]

i just figured out how elevators and turrets work to make my base more efficient, i think im a genius

[static fjord]

no flyers or transferring scorched playthrough is super fun

[sharp mountain]

Scorched earth, pvp wise is pretty useless map now in meta

[proud sun]

Scorched earth is my favorite map to play

[ruby sundial]

There is a mobile discord. This is for console and pc players.

You can access it by clicking the discord symbol in the game menu on your phone

[eternal merlin]

Ouch

[eternal merlin]

I was breeding some R Giga’s and Kentro’s, I triggered a Giga and same happened, lovely Glass tower, walkways, dinos etc all Nicholas Caged (Gone in 60 Seconds)

[odd cedar]

i lost my rexes, wyverns and everything

[drifting barn]

abberation was mine

[eternal merlin]

I can top that coz I had Zombie Wy’s which were from previous Halloween events and no longer happening 😭

[odd cedar]

a little bit of time later i did the same thing with a dodorex

handled it quite quick since i had more of a grasp on commands but man

i thought it was a normal ass dino not a skyscraper sized mega giga with satan energy

[odd cedar]

i always say "oh i dont like ab, its such a weird and gimmicky map" but all my ab worlds have been a blast

just the environment and how it plays so differently makes it so memorable

[eternal merlin]

I did make a sweet mistake Yesterday and killed Mr Otter 🦦, super bred and I’d done Alpha Dragon to level another character and in order for the Implant to change/show the Kill I had to Die… so I strip off, empty inventory and jumped in nearest water where there was Jellies… forgot about Mr Otter 🤦‍♂️

[odd cedar]

i always just go ff before doing something dumb or dangerous just to make sure i dont kill an innocent pet

saved a few lives by doing that

[eternal merlin]

I’m still undecided on which map I personally like the most… looks wise I’m a fan of Crystal and Fjordur, the Genesis maps were a bit of a game changer in my eyes mainly because the other maps have a Sky and looks like you a free to go anywhere… whereas Genesis is a spaceship/fishbowl etc

[eternal merlin]

I’ve lost more Armor in an Obelisk than I have to an Arthur lol 😂

Uploading character, sometimes forget to strip armor

[eternal merlin]

Been playing 6-7years, never seen one

[green ivy]

damn

[odd cedar]

why no tree platform in ark ab?

there is literally ZIPLINES

and you cant go around a mega tree base like what

[static fjord]

no grapples either, they want you to use the cliff platforms and ziplines respectively.

each story dlc has like 20 weird gimmicks so expect something different each time

[sharp mountain]

Uh technically u can grapple to your dinos to get up or other ppl 🤓

[eternal merlin]

Defo want ppl to Die on Ab 😂

I’m still scared to walk through a forest on foot on the Island, adding Wy Trenches with Scorched, Lava Island on the Center, plus the many other scary locations on various maps… I’m kinda always scared unless I’m at my home base on Island lmao 😂

[odd cedar]

no flyers on ab from my cryopods is ridiculous

like what is stopping me bruh

[ruby sundial]

no flyers allowed at all on ab. sorry but can only change that if you change the server settings yourself

but that defeats the purpose of ab

[odd cedar]

alternate strategy

gmsummon "argent_character_bp_C" 100

[ruby sundial]

you can summon but still cant fly it

[odd cedar]

worked with a tapejara without editing settins

[ruby sundial]

you will have to allow flying on ab in your settings

or it can glitch and kill both you and the flyer

[odd cedar]

flew around everywhere and it worked well

[ruby sundial]

will be at random. but hey fly at your own risk you were warned

[wanton crypt]

tames not laying eggs. i put the laying intervel to min 0.01 but still no female tames are laying eggs. I'm playing on crystal isles

[odd cedar]

i wont i was just testing

[silent matrix]

i thought you could fly summons on ab but you cant on gen1

[odd cedar]

cant on either

its a big bruh

[ruby sundial]

they wont lay fertile eggs, and wyverns wont passivley lay eggs

[silent matrix]

huh, i wonder if that was changed recently, i rember spawning stuff in and it working

[ruby sundial]

you can but it can kill the flyer on ab at random if you glitch allow the flight

[odd cedar]

are megalanias immune to radiation?

[ruby sundial]

you literally just said it worked on a tapejara..

[wanton crypt]

i have a female dodo and trike. but its been i think more than 10 ingame days

[odd cedar]

i meant as youre intended to play

[ruby sundial]

its still a very slow process either way without haveing a male dino of their kind around or an oviraptor for the egg drop boosts

get them both a male. will drop the eggs more often

females alone rarely drop an egg even with high settings

[wanton crypt]

those were my 1st tames. so just wondering. I'll soon get rex of both gender and see if it works

[ruby sundial]

okies. i just recommend the mate boosting for extra eggs to drop passively

and an oviraptor when you get the chance to snag one

[past sentinel]

Sino doesn't count as a flyer I don't believe

[ruby sundial]

no its counted as a glider

[wanton crypt]

also does wild dino disappear? i found a lvl174 tex rex. hit him with some arrows. but then went out of render distance home to make traps. but its dispawned now. i cant find it anywhere

[ruby sundial]

so it works in ab and gen1

[eternal merlin]

Use a Rock D or Maewing… Maewing probably Insta death though if you don’t land that landing lol

[ruby sundial]

keep searching the area. it could have gone further out, but if single player, it can despawn if you attacked it first then left the area

[past sentinel]

That is why the Sino became my favorite dino

[wanton crypt]

yep single player. i thought if i attached it it wouldn't dspawn like minecraft

[ruby sundial]

its pretty cool yea i just still prefer the tek suit in general

[ruby sundial]

not quite. welcome to ark. home of annoying glitches and ragequit causing bugs

[eternal merlin]

I’m about to test the Fjordhawk on Tek Cave… I do plan on dying, but I wanted to test the Desmo if possible and the Fjordhawk at same time so when I die I want my stuff back lmao 😂

[odd cedar]

what does a mek shield module or tek forcefield do? (i assume they do the same thing)

[ruby sundial]

idk if it retrieves from inside there. let me know when you find out please

[wanton crypt]

ok thanks for your help. i think its gone because i looked for it everwhere for like an hour

[ruby sundial]

may have despawned then sadly. 174 is a damn good level too so RIP

hopefully it was a shit stat

[eternal merlin]

I believe it does 👍🏼 but will soon see for sure lmao 😂

[ruby sundial]

bet

[wanton crypt]

lol that thinking this made me feel better😄

[ruby sundial]

well in that case we will say it was an oxygen rex and it vanished so a better one with melee and hp can spawn for you

[odd cedar]

do meks take rad damage?

[ruby sundial]

yes

they still take damage from radiation as do mini meks and enforcers. sadly..

[odd cedar]

well that makes no sense

[ruby sundial]

the devs im guessing did it to balance out the power

[odd cedar]

hmm this is a massive robot made of element and the strongest materials we have

but nooo the radiation is bad for it

[ruby sundial]

i know its weird but sadly true last i ran with one which was a few months ago

[odd cedar]

its literally an endgame mechanical god suit, its not meant to balanced in the first place

[ruby sundial]

it takes only a little damage at a time though so you may be ok to run one in the red zone for awhile just watch its health

[odd cedar]

do i get rad sickness? or the annoying ass overlay on my screen

or it just slightly damages the mek over time

[ruby sundial]

you will still have to wear a radiation suit or tek suit

i think the andrewsarchus is the only saddle that prtects you from radiation cause ark logic is dumb logic

[odd cedar]

there is a window inside of it

[ruby sundial]

a sealed off mek, you get hurt. a pig saddle with holes all in it, nah youre safe

[odd cedar]

that makes it double less sense

[ruby sundial]

ikr?

ark logic be twisted

[odd cedar]

you think the devs know what playtesters are?

or do they just throw a bunch of huge ass files together and hope it works

[ruby sundial]

ima go with the later

[odd cedar]

actually its latter 🤓

[ruby sundial]

my thing auto corrects lol

it apparently does not know that latter is a word

ill just shut it off

[prisma sand]

Wildcards motto is “just fuckin send it”

Send can be swapped out for delay at their discretion as well

[bleak fiber]

Do you guys know if it's possible to find honey on Vanaheim?

[ruby sundial]

there are honey rocks in fjordur and honey combs in the redwoods caves. just look near the Metal mountain that has the noglin head tribute on top. honey rocks spawn over there

[bleak fiber]

Got a beehive back in my Midgard base 😅

Just wondering if there's honey rocks on Vanaheim so I don't have to teleport

So I can just tame this Roll Rat while waiting for a Spino to finish taming

[ruby sundial]

should be. step out of the cave there and go north and slightly west and you should see them

[odd cedar]

is vanaheim new map?

[prisma sand]

No it’s an area in Fjordur

[odd cedar]

oh right

[vestal pasture]

I know there was (may still be) a bug on single player where if you harvest a node and then end your game before it respawns it won't respawn. Does that also apply to dedicated servers? We have a dedicated server that we run off ark server manager and I have the respawn distance quite close, however I've noticed on this map, that the resources near to the base really aren't respawning. If we shut off the server before they respawn, would it have prevented them from respawning at all?

[ruby sundial]

no but make sure you have your distance correct. smaller numbers means less distance. higher numbers means more

[vestal pasture]

Yes, I have it set up on several servers, and used ark server manager to move the settings. The rest of the servers play fine, but on this scorched earth server, I've noticed that the area around our main base with nothing respawning seems to be growing. Player is set to .1 and structure is set to .15, and the frequency is set to .25 to be more frequent.

[silent matrix]

does anyone knows how to find a missing dino from the deep sea?

[vestal pasture]

your server/game? You could kill all wild dinos and then get state of the missing dino. Then teleport to it

[ruby sundial]

on scorched, try using .07 and .09 in those settings instead

[vestal pasture]

Thanks, I'll give that a shot on next restart. Is it defaulted to a higher distance on that?

[ruby sundial]

i have noticed scorched treats those settings differently on my server as well

i think so honestly. i had to reduce mine too on my server

[silent matrix]

official pve server. missing dinos is mine. they are shadowmane. after attack by jellyfishes they just disappeared. but in the log they are not dead. they are somewhere but no matter how i searching in the sea i can't find them.

[vestal pasture]

without a tracker all you can do is wander around and press J and hope to find them

[silent matrix]

they were in a bottom of the sea. do you think they are still inside of sea or land?

[silent matrix]

yea im trying that way

painful to lose them

[vestal pasture]

If they aren't where you left them, they might have glitched or chased something. an unridden dino at the bottom of the sea that isn't a sea dino will tend to shoot directly to the top.

[ruby sundial]

if you are on your own private world, use the ghost command and see if they meshed into the ground of the ocean floor

[silent matrix]

is an official pve server so i dont think i can

but thank you for trying to help me guys

[ruby sundial]

shadowmane can take off halfway across a map when on neutral and underwater

[silent matrix]

ahhhhh,,

[silent matrix]

i see thank you so much

[silent matrix]

i found them! they were in a bottom of the sea. thank you !

[humble nebula]

hey if i transfer my ark character to different map in singleplayer how do i keep my items?

do i have to mess with files to do it or?

[prisma sand]

No. You can just upload the items themselves and your character separately

You’ll have to get to a drop to get them out though

Or ob or transmitter

[odd cedar]

i cant believe i never knew about megalanias until now, these guys are so good on every map

[eternal merlin]

I do like their Toxin bite etc and crawl ability… defo one up on the Enforcer

[odd cedar]

they are so good on ab

their whole point is caves and its a cave map, and they are immune to radiation its just crazy

[odd tartan]

someone from spain to play any pvp server ???

[sharp marsh]

there will be a next wipe of ark poc or they are closing the servers?

[wanton crypt]

what is the speed cap? i messed with the setting so some of my dinos have 300% some 400% mov speed. will my tames get faster if i get them to like 900% mov speed? or maybe after 200 it won't matter?

[odd cedar]

i got a ptero to 2100% speed before, it always made a difference every upgrade

[wanton crypt]

and did you notice the difference in speed when flying when it was like 1000% and then 2100%?

[odd cedar]

at 1000% it was pretty fast

at 2100% the game lagged a bit to keep up with how fast he was going

i dont think there is a cap its just how many points you put in and what the multiplier on the upgrade is

[wanton crypt]

thanks this is exactly what i was looking for. now i know stats won't be wasted. thanks.

[bleak fiber]

What are the pros to using an egg incubator instead of an s+ hatchery?

I've never crafted an incubator before, so don't know what options it has that the s+ hatchery doesn't

[humble nebula]

thanks

[odd cedar]

is there any way to blacklist items from my inventory?

im hunting brontos and stuff for hide

but i dont want all the meat and other stuff i just want hide

like a leedsichthys gives me so much fish but i dont need it

[sonic shuttle]

Aberration, you won’t get your items back quickly. Cuz the obelisks are awful to get to.

[sonic shuttle]

Make sure you use a hatchet to get more hide than meat

[odd cedar]

i got chainsaw

[sonic shuttle]

Just drop what you don’t want on the ground.

[odd cedar]

why wouldnt they make it something like one of them sunk into the ground, it would fit perfectly well

[odd cedar]

thats what im trying NOT to do

[sonic shuttle]

Aberration, which i came from is a frickin’ mess.

Blame Rockwell.

Daytime the temp is 158 F and a set you fire and break your armor debuff.

[odd cedar]

i just go out there whenever i need some easy metal

any time is fine as long as reapers aint spawning

[sonic shuttle]

I started using cheats cuz it was getting on my nerves. Also my fps was bad.

[silent matrix]

How do i update mods

[tame sinew]

how to tame trike ples tell me

[winter frost]

algun español?

[prisma sand]

Shoot it with tranqs until it falls asleep and then feed it berries

[sonic shuttle]

You have to learn tranq arrows, make a bunch. Try to get up on a rock so the Trike can’t get to you. Won’t be easy if you’re a beginner.

[prisma sand]

Just run circles around it. Their turn radius is terrible

[tame sinew]

well

its 80 lvl lol

so

?

when i did htat

[tame sinew]

it got up

[prisma sand]

It’s level doesn’t make it any more mobile

Run the circles. Live your best life

[merry hazel]

Or get ontop of a rock and just bonk it

[ruby sundial]

knock it out with tranqs and feed it mejo berries

[sonic shuttle]

You sometimes have to put the black berries or narcotics in it’s inventory and force feed them to keep their torpor up.

[tame sinew]

trap/

?

[merry hazel]

its just a trike homie, just kite it and tranq it, get up ontop of a rock and do the same if thats not working

shove narco berries in it or narcotics if you've made any

[tame sinew]

so me do circle

[merry hazel]

yep

[tame sinew]

if i die

[prisma sand]

Then you rise again a better man

[tame sinew]

ima respawn

btw guys

i got beaten by a 1 lvl one dodo its ril

is carboney gud?

its lvl 104

[sonic shuttle]

Dodo’s don’t fight back. Wut are u sayin’?

[tame sinew]

egg

[sonic shuttle]

Your first mount should be a parasaur. When you right while riding it gives off a radar that finds baddies nearby.

[tame sinew]

how to git crystal

well i have beaver early

and

parasaur

[eternal merlin]

I found beavers harder than Trikes… just remember a Trikes head takes less damage etc than it’s Body 👍🏼

[tame sinew]

ok

how to git crustal

[eternal merlin]

Make a Pick Axe 1st

Crystal and Metal usually found near Hills/Mountains

[tame sinew]

metal?

[eternal merlin]

Are you on The Island map ?

[tame sinew]

yes

i might get fuecked up by a alpha raptor

[eternal merlin]

There’s a nice place to grow in peace on Herby Island 🏝️ the island bottom right of map

[tame sinew]

ok

wats htat

[eternal merlin]

I’ll DM

[sonic shuttle]

You have to cross water that has big sharks to get to herbivore island.

Also, fish as big as a submarine hate rafts and are in that area too.

[cinder lance]

can u freeze a voidwyvern with a net / harpoon ?

[silent matrix]

suche ark mate

[small basalt]

Thankfully shastasaurus won over the dang hermit crab, I cannot believe the crab beat the orcas...this community or rather I should say the "fair voting" is something else. It would be nice if they found a way that only registered ark users could vote.

[vestal pasture]

So we were just in the south cave on scorched earth, we got to a point where there was a loot crate down on a ridge. I grabbed a parachute to float down to it, and while I was half way down I took 500k damage. Instant killed all. Why is ther ea loot crate there if you can't get to it?

[static fjord]

because ark is buggy like that.

[small basalt]

because they never fixed it

they also never fixed the one that apears behind the glass thats unaccesible

2 crates both on se

and that was the first PAID map

[vestal pasture]

SO does the infinite stat/god mod cheat prevent that 500k damage if I want my stuff back? otherwise we just roll back the server.

[patent pollen]

Godmode cheat should work fine, I also recommend the command fly to make the trip easier. Had my shadow mane fall under the map and thats how I got him out.

[vestal pasture]

Thanks. Our server roll back worked, except the save 8 minutes ago was inside the cave and beside 2 mantis that killed our jerboas.

[patent pollen]

Oof thats unfortunate about your jerboas, glad you got your stuff back 👍

[eternal merlin]

Safe once you actually get there lmao 😂

[fresh ferry]

i think basilisk has sort of tics maybe adhd cuz its always got tics with their head

while just standing

[silent matrix]

How do i update my mods

[odd heart]

Steam will auto update, but unsub. resub to force it

[past sentinel]

So many questions seen asked in here that would be figured out in seconds of typing it in google

hey again

heyooo

[floral sierra]

[strong mica]

My first boss fighting experinece was awful o-o My bf absolutely fucked up the difficulty settings and my whole 10 T-rexes I tamed over a week of playing almost day and night just melted in one hit. lowkey mad cause I was putting so much more of my time in taming and he brought 1 carno T_T

[odd cedar]

carno op

suprised it didnt solo the boss

[eternal merlin]

Which Boss were you fighting ? and What sort of stats did the Rexes have ?

My Tek Rexes are 55-60,000 HP and 1000+ Melee 👍🏼 Not had any trouble yet, bred around 8 Generations

[odd cedar]

why is my mek so stiff?? it doesnt move fluidly at all, it kinda waddles everywhere and the sword arm always stays completely still, its strange

[static fjord]

sounds like a bug, i dont remember it being so wonky like that

[eternal merlin]

Maybe Nuggets needs Oil 😂

[static fjord]

compare it to some video on youtube, i guess.

[static fjord]

how did you get such good stats in such few generations

[eternal merlin]

That’s with around 66 lvls included… that not base lol 😂

Bred an Imprinted Health was 10560 and 490 ish Melee I believe

Then I stick them in freezer while I go do other things and pump the passive XP lvls in 🤷‍♂️

My Tek’s are around lvl 250-290 ish, started around lvl 150-180

[odd cedar]

i got an abberant carno a few months ago, he was maybe lvl 100, but he lasted longer than my rock drakes on the rockwell fight and went down fighting off reapers

i wish i had some cryopod or something so i could pick him up but by the time i realised it was the last one it died a bit later

rip TOP G the carno

[static fjord]

double the melee and 5x the health? mental.

[spark nest]

Guys why does my command console text look so big?

[eternal merlin]

Is that good… ? I see ppl with Vids and Screenshots with like lvl 500-1000+ Dinos 🤷‍♂️

[static fjord]

yeah usually you'd need way more mutations and hence crazy levels

[eternal merlin]

Mutations I think the highest was 5 & 7 on Mat/Pat

[static fjord]

do you have sp settings on

[odd cedar]

what are mutations even? all i know is if i make two strong dinos breed they make a strong baby and its spawn will be even stronger

[eternal merlin]

Absolutely 👍🏼

[static fjord]

a mutation is a 7.31ish% chance for an offspring to get +2 points into a random stat and a random colour in any colour region

[eternal merlin]

Mutations happen in many forms, could be colour, stat, even could just be in Food or something rubbish, ideally looking for the Best stat where you want it and keep breeding and breeding, it’s hit an miss

[odd cedar]

and there is 8 attributes a dino can upgrade?

so getting the stat boost i want is like really rare

[static fjord]

yeah

[cobalt pagoda]

Guys which is the “best” tame on the island? So by best I meant versatile.. so something with good damage, weight, health, transportability (for some travel) etc..

Remember this is on the island. (Since I’m a mobile player griffins also exist on the island.)

[static fjord]

argy, unless mobile somehow has rhynios

[dry herald]

Yo

[odd cedar]

so does breeding not do anything unless the baby gets mutations? or do the generations just stronger naturally after tons of breeding

[static fjord]

they dont get stronger

breeding without mutations allows you to combine the best stats of either parent, and also get imprint buff

[dry herald]

Yoo

[static fjord]

imprint is SUPER strong, 30% damage increase and reduction when ridden and a 20% buff to hp, melee, weight and food

[dry herald]

Can i ask some questions?

[static fjord]

go ahead

[dry herald]

Is sabertooth worth it or pteranodon?

[static fjord]

both are good.

[dry herald]

Is the shotgun is worth to learn?

[odd cedar]

hard to compare the two since one is flyer one is ground

[dry herald]

I see

[odd cedar]

primivite shotgun imo no, machined shotgun has insane damage

[dry herald]

Longneck rifle?

Im only level 40

[cobalt pagoda]

Argys? Really? Isn’t a griffin or a quetz better?

I mean argys are slow, not the best dmg either.. they can carry a lot but that’s about it.. so it can’t be the best right.,

[dry herald]

Brand new to the game so idk anything

[odd cedar]

longneck rifle good for the whole game, incredible use in early game weaponry and late game but can be used for other purposes in the later levels

[eternal merlin]

Longneck and Pump Shotgun are the most used I reckon

[static fjord]

argy has more weight than griffin and quetz just sucks regardless of any comparison.
you can use both argy and griffin, one for farming and other for transport/combat

[dry herald]

My best tame rn is the the pulmonoscropius

[cobalt pagoda]

Fair point, also this is on singleplayer since i am a pc player who plays mobile sometimes.. and on mobile max lvl creatures is 450 so griffin has an insane amount weight

[dry herald]

Nothing attacks me even when i attack them

[dry herald]

I see

[cobalt pagoda]

Longneck for taming, shotguns for obliterating.

[odd cedar]

longneck for taming when lvl 63+

can be used a sniper in early game if you get the scope attachment

[dry herald]

I kinda need more tames ngl

[cobalt pagoda]

Yeah.. longneck as a regular weaponry is meh.. revolvers, bows, crossbows exist

[marsh dagger]

why am i finding such low level dinos when i dont have singleplayer settings on and i have the difficulty level max

[dry herald]

Simple pistol?@cobalt pagoda

[cobalt pagoda]

Yeah

[dry herald]

Is it decent

[cobalt pagoda]

I think so, i had a 600 dmg one and it destroys rexes and stuff

[dry herald]

I see

[eternal merlin]

Flyer and a nice Carnivore for protection, although some Veggies can offer good protection and transport but when you have a Rex in the bag you certainly feel a lot better 😂

[static fjord]

longneck is worse than crossbow for taming unless you have shocking darts

[odd cedar]

simple pistol is good early game gun, wish i realised that sooner

[cobalt pagoda]

But my loot are ascendent since on mobile theres higher difficulty modes

[eternal merlin]

Maybe you need to also do Dino wipe and see what respawns

[marsh dagger]

cheers lad

[cobalt pagoda]

Yeah it really is.. useful to have 1 incase of emergencies where you are not on a tame

[dry herald]

Im too low level to even attempt a rex

[patent pollen]

I don't think sabers are worth half their weight in tintoberries honestly. Squishy kitties are too squishy for the level required to ride them imo. Dire wolves spawn around the same areas and are easier to tame without killing by accident. They have slightly higher damage and hp as well. They dont have a saddle which gives the saber a bit more of an edge defensively but the wolves get a pack buff which stacks up to 5.

[dry herald]

I see

[static fjord]

the pack buff means nothing because its impossible to have the ai follow you over 3 rocks

[dry herald]

☠️

[eternal merlin]

Maybe too low to Ride it but can still trap it and tame it if you’re in the right place at the right time with enough Tranqs/Narcs etc

[dry herald]

Tru my scorpion gets stuck ever where

[dry herald]

Hmmm

[odd cedar]

ikr

people are like ohh you can take packs everywhere for protection

i resorted to carrying atleast 5 cryopods at all times because i cant deal with goddamn ai

[dry herald]

It was pain to get him out the cave

On moblie its worse

[odd cedar]

you should tame a giganotosaurus, its really easy and will protect you for the rest of the game

[dry herald]

I don't wanna die

[odd cedar]

🤡

[dry herald]

Sabertooth is out

[patent pollen]

You're not thinking your follow me dinos or their poor pathfinding if you're letting them get stuck between rocks lol I had a wolf pack following my saber everywhere until I tamed a rex

[dry herald]

What about kaprosuchous

[patent pollen]

Kapros are fun

[odd cedar]

sarco better imo, and they way cooler

[dry herald]

Beelzebufo?

[odd cedar]

i only ever tamed one beezle but it was great for speed and could deal enough damage to sneak my way outta places

[dry herald]

What is a araneo

[odd cedar]

big spider

[dry herald]

Is it good

[odd cedar]

never tamed one lol

[dry herald]

Guess it isn't

[void dove]

Araneo is pretty awful

[dry herald]

I see

[void dove]

Which is a shame because it could be a lot better

[odd cedar]

i guess that by the time you get it there are better options

[patent pollen]

Beelzebufo is good for harvesting cementing paste if you dont have a farm going yet

[dry herald]

Alr

What do they need to tame?

[odd cedar]

what should i name my black mek? thinking bout the name judas

[dry herald]

Raw meat?

[odd cedar]

WHAT

[void dove]

Yep, just Raw is fine

[dry herald]

Ah

[void dove]

Basic KO tame

[dry herald]

So im gonna learn the saddle rn

[patent pollen]

Yeah just munch some insects with the big frog and watch it collect the paste haha

[dry herald]

Metal shield?

[odd cedar]

i could have done that all this time?

i didnt have to spend ages looking for and then raiding beaver dams for like 120 paste at a time

[dry herald]

Deodicurus?

[patent pollen]

Could look for dams while munching inscects on the way and profit. The more you know 😅

[void dove]

You seem pretty new to Ark. Might want to spend an hour or so just poking around the creatures in the Wiki to see what they all are/do instead of asking about every one and waiting for a response

[patent pollen]

100% good utility tame to have, you want the rock collector

[odd cedar]

amazing for stone, can make a stone base and when you have an anky or just a metal pick even that can grind flint, easy gunpowder

[patent pollen]

You also can pick up an anky loaded with sweet weight reduced metal with an Argy and carry it home so long as the anky doesnt weigh more than the bird can carry 👍

Also works with the doedicurus but Id imagine your harvesting stone close enough to base that you dont need that strategy

[odd cedar]

why just why does raw prime meat NOT stack

i harvest one dinos body and i get enough to feed an entire village and i gotta stand there for a minute removing it all without removing the stuff i actually need

[patent pollen]

@odd cedar There should be a search bar at the top of your inventory, search for pri and shove all where ever you're moving it too.

[odd cedar]

thanks i didnt think of that

[odd cedar]

but my point still stands!!!

[patent pollen]

Lol cant argue with the truth, its super obnoxious that it doesnt stack and that's a fact 😂

[eternal merlin]

I do have a bunch of Cryo fridges each with certain types of dinos ranging from unimprinted cannon fodder to super bred boss killers

[ruby sundial]

You can add a code to make it stack. Search online for the proper code and you can start stacking it on your server

[eternal merlin]

The Spoil timer on Prime Meat is so so quick, it’s straight in the Cooker for me and then turning into Jerky

[ruby sundial]

You can also store it in a fridge if you want it to last awhile for taming. I usually just use it for spoiled meat.

Anyway I'm off to bed goodnight everyone

[dry herald]

What’s happened ? If you died… this is normal, we all die occasionally 😂

[dry herald]

The fucking sarco bruh

[eternal merlin]

Did you go all Dundee on it or it went all Crocodile on you…

[dry herald]

And the frog gonna wake up without being tamed

It woke up

Mn i wasted all of my traq arrows

I died to a frog

[eternal merlin]

I’ve never tamed a Frog 🐸, yes ppl say it’s a Cement paste factory but have to find Bugs etc… raid a beaver Dam it’s got plenty and will respawn (Don’t Kill Beavers 🦫)

[dry herald]

Mn im just gonna stick with my scorpion

[dry herald]

I see

[eternal merlin]

Also… a Scorpion can knock out Dinos 👍🏼

For info bring up radial dial on Scorpion and Enable Target Conscious Only… this way it Knocks Out and not Kills 👍🏼

[dry herald]

Ik but it tames long

Takes

And idk if it's even gonna drop

Ight imma try

[serene garden]

Can u tame a grown deinonychus or can u only get them with eggs?

[eternal merlin]

Eggs… but once you have a M&F, breed etc

[serene garden]

When I picked an egg on Val it spoiled within 3 secs is that normal or am I doing something wrong

[eternal merlin]

Eggs do have a Spoil timer, maybe you were unlucky and got one close to its end, at least another will respawn and you can get that while it’s fresh lol

[patent pollen]

It just means the egg has been sitting to long, dein eggs dont disappear when their spoil timer runs out and new eggs cant spawn with an old egg still in the nest. Clear out the bad and wait for them to respawn.

[serene garden]

Looks like u guys were right i got one with two hours left thank u

[odd cedar]

you fooling yourself if you think im going to edit my games code

[eternal merlin]

Noice

[twilit stag]

Hej

Hi

@twilit stag

[minor hornet]

can someone help me with my bug please

[silent matrix]

Depends what it is ,ask away

[unborn dragon]

How can I level up fast on the island at south-1?

I need tranq arrows and a flying thing.

[minor hornet]

When I click join ark it says no sessions found. I redownloaded the game and then it worked but when I relogged I had the same issue. I also reset my ark and it also worked until I had to relog. I can't play. This is the first time that happened to me in years of playing ark.

[unborn dragon]

If there are some easy to reach explorers notes with my 2 lvl 8 Parasaurs that would be great.

[rocky moth]

Does anyone know if ASA will have fsr?

[rocky moth]

on island map go west, you should find small island south of red obelisk, there are 2 explorer notes. 1in small ruin in forst on southeast of the islan and other in the ruin on hill in the eastern part of the island. I can send you map with marks of them and safe path if you want

[unborn dragon]

I think I can find it, thanks!

[rocky moth]

np

be careful tho, raptors tend to spawn in the forest on that island so it would be better to stay outside the forests, there is also a big rock close by and spinos may spawn there near it

[short sequoia]

How to get the evo trex? Is it in wild or by breeding paleo rexes

[rapid rover]

Hey, what do you mean by evo t rex? Color or type

[short sequoia]

Type it's on paleo ark mod not vanilla or mutation tho

[tough yarrow]

Breed paleo rexes a bunch, you get a chance to drop an evotyrannus egg each breeding. Mine have turned out amazing!

The egg looks like a yuty egg, beige-yellow with grey spots

Best to just have a ton of females and leave them on breeding with like a soul terminal to pick them up

[short sequoia]

thank uuu ill deffo do thhat

[tough yarrow]

Have fun!

[rapid rover]

I guess you got your answer!
Make sure the male and female breeders at least male or female have less than 20 mutations on there father and mother sides if they are 20/20 or more you won't get that egg no matter how much you breed them

[tough yarrow]

It's not a mutation.

The mutation counter does not matter.

[short sequoia]

i think its an evolution so iits not related to mutation at this poiint

[short sequoia]

are they breedable tho?

[tough yarrow]

It is not related to mutations in any way shape or form.

[short sequoia]

and i saw some youtuber usingg a skull armor on it

[tough yarrow]

Absolutely

[short sequoia]

im hyped xD

gonna be good to take evo gigas

[tough yarrow]

You can craft it! Just learn the engram

[prime mulch]

anybodh wanna start a pve workd w me? kooking for a friend and it has a couple mods only problem is i can only play weekends

[tough yarrow]

@prime mulch grab the steam role in id:customize (since you mentioned mods), and then use https://discord.com/channels/729837326120910915/1110949794907684965 for lfg

[prime mulch]

thank you i was looking for a channel for it!!!

[tough yarrow]

[tough yarrow]

I haven't been able to get to the evo gigas yet but God they look AMAZING! Wild ones scare me XD

[rapid rover]

Ahh that's new to me then, what's the point with getting more females

[delicate anvil]

To increase your chances, just like a mutation.

[tough yarrow]

Because it is a mod and you're not on Steam.

More females increases egg/breeding amount, therefore increases the chances of getting an evotyrannus egg.

[rapid rover]

😆

Seems like mutations

[tough yarrow]

It's not a mutation. It's an evolution.

[rapid rover]

Although I am not much on steam so in progress into it

Ok thanks for the information looking forward to learn about it more!

[delicate anvil]

It's just a chance to lay an egg of an entirely different creature basically.

Better version of the Paleo rex.

[vestal pasture]

Just a bit of a sanity check. When you're riding a phoenix you're immune to all wyvern breath attacks right? Fire seems obvious, and I've confirmed that, but I'm fairly certain I got hit with a blob of poison and nothing happened

[tough yarrow]

Poison blob may have just not hit you right

[vestal pasture]

it seems to strike me directly on as the wyvern came around a corner and I had no time to dodge.

[viscid heron]

a much safer bet if you can get a raft up is theres a few on herbivore island, on the southeast of the map, dont advise swimming though, quite dangerous

[tough yarrow]

Afaik, it's only immune to fire itself (since it heals it)

https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Phoenix

[unborn dragon]

I can tame a turtle, will that be safer than a raft? I can make the saddle.

[rapid rover]

Fire don't damage yes although other wyvs type will kill it, you probably didn't get hit by the poison like bee said and glitched

[viscid heron]

Not quite, can still get caught out by jellyfish/megs, but if you can avoid them well enough better than nothing

[unborn dragon]

So should i lvl up for a raft or just grab the turtle on my lawn?

[viscid heron]

are you on singleplayer or a server?

[unborn dragon]

Singleplayer

[viscid heron]

Then if anything and you can tame a turtle, and just go there naked so you dont lose anything, herby island is a great starter area, no spoilers, but you can wiki it if you want more info

Scout it for yourself and see 🙂

should be able to see from mainland

[tough yarrow]

Herbivore island is great, just the getting there is annoying

[unborn dragon]

Ive done some research, im probably moving there. I have nothing i need at south-1 but my 2 parasaurs.

[viscid heron]

or if you can get a pteranadon and put some stamina in it, could try flying over.

[unborn dragon]

How do i get my parasaurs there?

[viscid heron]

Would have to use a raft or swim [not advised]

[unborn dragon]

Need the notes to get that

[tough yarrow]

You could cryopod them

[unborn dragon]

At lvl 11?

[viscid heron]

yea, a bob starting out, cant do that lol

[tough yarrow]

You don't need the notes to get a pt unless you've just made that a rule for yourself

[fresh ferry]

what am i doing wrong cuz i wanna get bluepring of good flak shirt and im putting cheat GFI PrimalItemArmor_MetalShirt_C 2 65 true but it doesnt work

[tough yarrow]

Fair point, I'm used to note running 😂

[viscid heron]

Hint: Bola

[unborn dragon]

I need the xp boost, i dont want to grind for 20 mote years.

[fresh ferry]

im in single player

[viscid heron]

If anything once you get to herby, toss a bedroll or two down, and its a safe place to make your first base and build up a bit

Just naked swim it and see for yourself lol

[tough yarrow]

cheat gfi MetalShirt 1 0 0

[unborn dragon]

Will there be the stuff to get a raft and bring my parasaurs there?

[viscid heron]

Yep

[unborn dragon]

Ok

[fresh ferry]

nu nu nu i need blueprint

[tough yarrow]

Change the last 0 to a 1.

[lethal pasture]

when is arks last day online

[fresh ferry]

hows this possible

[tough yarrow]

I don't even know what this command is.
cheat GFI PrimalItemArmor_MetalShirt_C 2 65 true

[rapid rover]

gfi MetalShirt 1 10 true

[fresh ferry]

i found it on the popular site with commands

[rapid rover]

Try this

[short sequoia]

120 tranqs later i got a female paleo rex 130

male soon

[rapid rover]

You can increase 10 to more if you want higher quality

[tough yarrow]

Use numbers instead of true/false, 1 for true, 0 for false.

[fresh ferry]

thank you!

[short sequoia]

what setting can increase breediing speed? not the cd but the breeding time

[tough yarrow]

https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/GFI_Codes

[tough yarrow]

MatingSpeedMultiplier

[short sequoia]

Thank u

[unborn dragon]

were the explorer notes percentage modifiers or just giving you xp

[viscid heron]

Percentage modifiers

[unborn dragon]

perminant?

[viscid heron]

once you get them, you want to have a way to get a lot of xp in the period of time they last.

they are timed.

but they stack on each other iirc, so the more you get the more boost you get [not sure on this if someone else can verify]

[unborn dragon]

is cloth shirt spamming a good way to take advantage of that?

[viscid heron]

Kinda but not really. crafting xp can be pretty low

[unborn dragon]

at lvl 11

[dry herald]

Yo

Is the paraverithim saddle worth to learn?

[viscid heron]

killing things, collecting mass amounts of resources, and other high xp yield activities are better,
If you can get the resources stocked up before hand you could run a bunch of mortar and pestles crafting narcotics [which you are going to need a bunch of eventually anyway] and that yields pretty well.

[dry herald]

Im doing that rn

[viscid heron]

You mean paraceratherium?

[dry herald]

Gon grind till tired

Yes

[unborn dragon]

should i get a raft to go to herbivore island or a turtle?

[viscid heron]

Its an alright platform dino

[dry herald]

Raft

[unborn dragon]

i have to get 3 more levels.....

[viscid heron]

try a raft run with nothing on it and be naked, then you can scout and find for yourself.
Just be aware there are things that... dont like rafts

[dry herald]

Is wooden tree platform worth to learn?

[unborn dragon]

seems safer to get a turtle

[viscid heron]

can be if its fast and you are aware enough. but cant transport [much] things on it

[slate widget]

if you want to use it sure. you can always mindwipe to reset your engrams. or buy more if you can transfer to genesis from HLNA

[unborn dragon]

just need to get there

[dry herald]

I see

[viscid heron]

Whatever you can do first then, give it a go

[unborn dragon]

can i tame a lvl 12 turtle with 1 bola and half a club?

[viscid heron]

theres a reason people have thousands of hours on ark, nothing in this game is meant to be quick, gotta be patient and assess for yourself if things are worth doing. Sometimes you will fail, die, lose a dino, but you can always come back.

[viscid heron]

Look up dododex.

thatll tell you.

[unborn dragon]

i dont understand dododex, i have 2.7 hours in the game.

[viscid heron]

Do you have the website up?

[unborn dragon]

not currently

[urban thorn]

Does the Creature Finder Deluxe mod work for modded creatures as well?

[viscid heron]

Try it, search the dino you are looking for, enter your taming speed and food drain multiplier and dino level, and find the tool you are usign to tame, itll tell you how may hits it will take and how long

[unborn dragon]

44 club hits

[viscid heron]

repair or make another basically

[unborn dragon]

can i find an Ichthyosaurus at south 1

[viscid heron]

Wiki it and theres a map that tells you their spawns.

[modern cedar]

bola wont work on the turtle

[summer prairie]

Make a trap

[modern cedar]

also i highly suggest slingshot

[summer prairie]

Or outrun it

[modern cedar]

it doesnt need a trap, they are very slow

[viscid heron]

i suggest narco arrows

[unborn dragon]

cant make those

its common here

[summer prairie]

Then slingshot

[modern cedar]

get like 100 stone and a slingshot

[viscid heron]

may need more than that depending where you are hitting it

but stone easy to get

[unborn dragon]

can i remove a skin from my weapon

[summer prairie]

I can't remember exact nr of stones but try also making like 4 slingshots for if one breaks

[modern cedar]

he said its level 12 so 100 should be good but get aaround 200 maybe

[viscid heron]

right click it, remove skin

[modern cedar]

get 200 stone and around 2-3 slingshots and you should be more than good to take it out

[summer prairie]

Try make sure nothing dangerous is around you

[modern cedar]

just walk backwards shoot it in the head if it gets close start running a bit and keep going

rinse and repeat till done

[unborn dragon]

the turtle or the ichthyosaurus

[viscid heron]

turtle

[modern cedar]

turtl

[unborn dragon]

ok

[modern cedar]

itchy is a passive tame

[viscid heron]

ichthyo is passive tame, thats different, might struggle more with that

[summer prairie]

It swims up to you

[modern cedar]

yeah itchy will swim up to you but wont attack

[viscid heron]

plus you need a safe place for it once you tame it or it can get eaten

[modern cedar]

awesome spyglass will say they are aggressive but they arent

[summer prairie]

Watch out for rays, megs and jellies

When taming

[viscid heron]

Dont spoil the whole game. let him find out on his own

[summer prairie]

Oops 😬

Forget I said anything

[modern cedar]

itchythornis? not even a real dino

[past sentinel]

If someone is asking then that on them, not everyone cares about spoilers like that

[unborn dragon]

i remembered that part from an ark video from the day the game came out

[viscid heron]

Didnt ask about that though. Was just asking about how to tame turtle, fair to assume not to give away all the oddities and things in the ocean that could kill you

[modern cedar]

what game? ark ? never heard of it

[summer prairie]

Its a mammal I guess

[modern cedar]

fr

[viscid heron]

ikyornis? isnt that a bird?

[unreal marsh]

bru

[past sentinel]

That why you're hear 🤣

[slate widget]

there are 2 itchys
Ichthyornis the hell bird that steals stuff
Ichthyosaurus, the fake dolphin that is actually a reptile making it a dino.

[viscid heron]

was a joke lol

[summer prairie]

The dolphin and the trash bird

[viscid heron]

tbh early game trash bird tame pretty op

[unreal marsh]

lowkey

[summer prairie]

Paired with a dilo

[viscid heron]

infinite food and prime fish

[summer prairie]

Free fish meat and meat and hide

[past sentinel]

That bird was the bane of my existence when I first started playing and now every time I see one I go out of my way to end it existence 😂

[spark nest]

Guys can someone help for some reason I cant use chat or console, both my enter and tab keys are working

[unborn dragon]

how do i get it

i need free food

[summer prairie]

Bola and slingshot

[viscid heron]

check/rebind your keybinds, they can break/get bound to other things accidentily. theres a refresh button in the top right.

[modern cedar]

best 2 dinos in the game are the dildophosuar and the managamer

[summer prairie]

It'll attack if u get too close

[unreal marsh]

nah frog

[viscid heron]

search Ichthyornis. Otherwise I would go to herby first if I were you, will end up a lot better.

[summer prairie]

Nah theri

[modern cedar]

theri insane tho

[unreal marsh]

nah wait u right

[viscid heron]

yall seen the theri march reddit post? HILARIOUS

[modern cedar]

theri is the best early game tame

[summer prairie]

Nope

[modern cedar]

good for bosses resource gathering and all that

[summer prairie]

True true

[modern cedar]

theris usually one of my first tames, if not the first

just takes alot of tranq arrows

[past sentinel]

I became okay with pegos after my experience with that thief of a bird cause at least you could get your item back for a pego.

[modern cedar]

i just bola pegos any time they are near me

[viscid heron]

dming

[modern cedar]

and then murder them

[modern cedar]

dm to me?

[summer prairie]

Also argys

[viscid heron]

thats the level of theri i strive for in every game lol

[modern cedar]

theri and argy best mid early game tames

such nice tames

get an anky a argy and a theri ur set on recourcesa

one thing i dont like about theris is how slow they are

[past sentinel]

Although theri fair warning take FOREVER to tame after you knock them out if that rate is official

[viscid heron]

its not the time to tame them, its the time to KEEP THEM DOWN

massive levels of narcos

[past sentinel]

I always thought Theri should eat a bit faster for what you are getting

[viscid heron]

if youve never tried to tame a theri by only collecting berries, youve never tamed anything worthwhile in ark lmao

[summer prairie]

With ark follow mechanics must've been a pain to get anywhere worth going
