boss fight on lc really bugged
reached the lost king and nothing happened just said regroup and then the timer went off
did it 3 times perfectly fine
you need to take all dinos and players to the center
we did
every player and all 20 dinos where there
try that in Single Player where if ya blink even once, she'll despawn
Is anyone having lots of character rubberbanding issues once logged in since the latest patch? The only way out of it is to ride a dino and move around. Then i get control back
I'm on dedicated server and it's even worse
@opal needle what about levelling up the baby? don't ya need to go kill stuff for the xp?
I'm certainly not killing the high level Queen that's for sure
Sounds kinda overpowered to get you own Reaper Queen.
same, I just wait 30-50 second
it doesn't work like vanilla though, she won't impregnate ya on command and instead, lays an egg once per day
that's IRL day, not in-game
So what does the egg do?
hatches into a baby Reaper King 😂
I wait that long but nothing changes even astreous seems more laggy now very strange
Yea. So free baby reaper. No. Not for me.
ya still need to do the whole manual impregnate thing because the chance to get a queen is 25%
RNG can screw ya over and ya could end with 50 Male Kings
Knowing my luck score that would be my case.
yep, so it doesn't affect the main gameplay loop, ya still want to get impregnated multiple times
and the Alpha Reaper Queen that this mod adds is insane
makes it a worthy challenge for the army that ya bread on Aberration or Lost Colony even
Rockwell boss fight is a joke after all
your army just sits there in the platform and ya just circle around him
and Lost Colony boss fight is a buggy mess so ya get to do something until they fix the map
All the boss fights has always been buggy from the start. From what I heard some of them still are. Remember back in the early days of ASE where the Dragon on Ragnarok just flew away in the horizin. 100% fail rate.
what 😂
That was a long time ago
I guess the Ragnarok arena wasn't barricaded back then?
Just saying. It takes time for them (wc) to get it working.
Why don't the baby dino's that you have bred , NOT shows the traits they got ? It defeats the purpose of even putting that button there
Babies don't inherit traits from there parents. (It may be some exceptions.) You need to give them traits with the Gen Scanner.
So, all those button on their were a gimmick to make you buy more content?
Dinos you can't tame, but have to raise from eggs/embryos are the exception.
guys is there a way to close prevent hibernation in singleplayer?
If you don't own Bobs Tall Tale you will need to install mods to be able to give them Traits. But it is allowed to add that feature in mods, and there are some that does it.
gotcha , thanks for explaining it
looking for good asa pvp servers
What do you mean with "close prevent hibernation"? Removing the setting?
yes
dinos only spawn near me I cant even use the dinofinder mod
hibernation is done to make the game run smoother i believe]
You need -preventhibernation for dino finder type mods to work in single player.
I wrote that to steam thing but I cant make it work
The opposite actually. -preventhibernation will use more resources (mainly RAM). But it is needed for mods to be able to access dinos that are not in rendering range.
there was a patch for that just this week #patch-notes message
So , heres a question , which is the better odds of happening ? Going to try and find a male gacha for element ( for a mated pair ) , OR just breed them until i get one ?
In Steam Library open properties form Ark and add "-PreventHibernation" as a Advanced Launch Option.
doing both :), but mass breeding really depends on your breeding settings
also, babies don't take the items from parents, so mate pair of element dust gacha's don't guarantee babies have it, though for putting them next to eachother and keeping them happy yeah
Why don't I level anymore?
yeah , i knew babies don't carry over , right now I'm using 2 females for dust and its a pain kinda. Just wanted a pair for easiness of the process
what level are you?
you need to ascend to level up more, or do the other things like collect dossiers
OR, if it is bugged and you are not at level cap, take a mindwipe potion
Or could be incorrect setting in game.ini in single player or unofficial server.
Have you ascended?
No
That's why.
How to ascend?
Default cap is 100, 105 with chibi.
kill certain bosses
Kill oversee on The Island, manticore on SE, rockwell on ab, king titan on extinction, new boss on Lost Colony.
Collect explorer notes. BTT notes also gives more. Your implant should tell you what to do.
All notes or bob notes also raise it, yeah.
Speaking of level, I wonder what the true end level of ASA will be. I think we're on course for 260 atm after all maps release in 37 years.
How many extra levels can you get on LC? It's not on the Wiki yet.
Not sure. I originally thought you couldn't because it wasn't on wiki but I asked the other day and someone said you could.
I may be spreading misinfo here as a result since I haven't done it myself.
I had some problems when I did my custom level curve for ASA since the wiki didn't specify how many to add. So I just ended up adding 300 😛
I'm an odd one. I want my level to go slower then vanilla 😛
But just lowering the xp you get make the end game take way to long.
Vanilla you pretty much sneezes and you are lvl 60.
Beat the final boss on the maps The Island, Scorched Earth and Aberration.
Speaking of bosses, they're indirectly easier now due to powercreep, right? No fundamental changes from ASE?
Beat the final boss
yes but they're still just as buggy as ASE where the Ascending is the most dangerous part of the fight
hate this fuckass game so much cause wdym my game crashed as soon as i tamed my argy and doe?? and as SOON as I log in a pack of allos comes in and murders the doe, and on my way back a pack of raptors just murders the argy because this idiot is flying right at ground level whilst following me
this game is so unserious
I don't know if the Scorched Earth boss was like in ASE but on ASA, if ya bring even 1 flyer including a Pet Shoulder that can fly like a Drakeling, it will rarely attempt to land
ya just got Ark'd my friend
happens to everyone
I once was taming a 168 Tek Giga and even though I made sure to clear the area around it, I kid ya not, the very last second a spider spawned behind me and attacked it
I was extremely lucky because the giga ate the last kibble, woke up and attacked it
luckily, it didn't lose any levels
That sounds vaguely familiar on ASE, too.
there's no way 😭
15 at the moment
sameone who attempted lost king on official server, did whole server crash when u attempted to do lc? When u were entering lc arena. just want verify some stuff
i mean after recent patch
that's just how it is with ARK which is why I always recommend that ya surround the creature ya are taming with Stone Gateways
ya can even stick a few hundred raw meat in it alongside the preferred food then leave it there until ya can craft a saddle for it if ya don't have access to crypods
15 lvls from alpha ascention atm max lvl is 210
lwk sounds like a good strategy
so collecting all explorer notes doesn't do anything beside xp buff I'm assuming?
If you've got the ability to carry wild dinos, it also makes tranqing easier since you can knock them out safely from an overlook ceiling in a prebuilt taming box.
Someone talked about it yesterday dping it with 8 people apparently 3 died to flame throwes and 5 people made it till the end and ascended (as far as i know)
oh so its not everyone. i guess still better to hold off/
we were able to get to boss with no death but server crashed when we were entering arena where u fight lc
tribemate written to me that she talked with some people and server crashed too when entering same spot
Default max lvl is 105
Chibi 5
Explo notes +10
Overseer +15
Manticore +15
Rockwell +15
King titan +15
Lodt queen +15
yay final defeat lost queen
let's goool
only gamma those
I mean i am done with lost queen
bob tales explorer notes?
did ya encounter any bugs?
Tbf everyone has different experiences and nothing is 100% certain
Forgot those those give another 15 or 20 from all maps
i guess still she isnt worrth the risk
in the whole fight nope but let me check if i get the level
5 per schorched, abberation, ext total 15
On official unles u have a lot of sigils and alpha skulls aint worth it
Island has bob tails too afair
no lvls for the island
i have cap 185 only mmissing normal notes, one day
but i read that i only need the island and se
Then i dont remember correctly been a long time since i been to island
Yes just island and SE need all from island dossiers too
it has only for transfering into the island and ascending
I am 196 atm and cba to lvl to 210 right now
still not as much ias i thought, abberation would be hell
@loud breach yeah no bug i got my +5 level
Sigils aren't hard to get though, the Skull is
134 and it takes forever to lvl since 130, started on lc release on officaial\
i would say, tames saddles and gear are harder to get.
I lvled to 195 in about 20 days of running osds and kt
kt?
Ik skulls are bottleneck
It's not bad with a tek bed and other optimization, IMO, but on singleplayer it's more annoying.
i plan with tribemate she is 167 to do a lot of osd if 3x on valentines maybe on x2 too
Wondering king titan
oh, that thing
Gives u about 80 mil xp with all buffs
Yea i did all mine on x1 lmao
what's the best creature to farm it? I used a Carcha one and it kept stunning it
u cant find any tames on sp. and all bosses i was carried but sameone, XD. i got fully mutated tames from tribemate. only lost king would be my first ascension but server crashed
so annoying
Prevent hibernation and 3x spawn rate fixed that for me.
Carcha 100% best to kill it
but it keeps stunning ya?
Use 2 whistle 1 to a different leg so u aint stun locked
how many should I bring and how much Melee?
I only have 1 capped ascended saddle too
As much as u have good saddles bring flak cuz of metheors male and female carcha and u are golden
is there a way to cheese it?
Drakeling for 15% xp tribe tower that been on for 20 days broth of enlightemenet and if u habe x2 and x4 notes on ext thats all u need
Carcha os the way to cheese it
I'm gonna modify the ini to get it to respawn frequently
It only spawns once a day at specific time but ngl i dont know much about it too so not the best to give advice on how the spawn works
I know how to get it to spawn frequently on my dedicated server, I just need to restart the server after every fight
Ah well spesking for offi settings
On private u can do what ever u want even give yrself xp through commands if u so wish it
nope, too lazy
Could someone confirm to me if the saddle tek increases the attack of the dino?
ya mean if the projectile damage increases?
non the croc because I have a player on my server who says yes while I think it’s false
he holds this info of chatgpt
Does unofficial server run smoother than single player in terms of crashes on lost colony or ?
Server always runs smoother than sp by default
And at this point any server will run better then offi
I don't think this is normal
wtf where my egg gone
oh i cant post screenshots here
you fuck shit game where my gigadesmodus egg
language bro. no need to rage its just a game
is anyone having issues with elderclaw seeds since the last update? it sprouts but no cravings, have 300%, fert and water
Hey , are there anny official servers recently wiped ?
Why do the free structure cosmetics not apply? This is complete B's that only the premium ones work but the free structure skins don't apply at all fix this now WC this is a joke honestly. Do us all a favor and don't drop a massive update on Fridays because no other game developer does that.
the modder may not have updated it yet, I noticed some of mine weren't working yesterday but now they are
why is it that the high level argy shows itself after i'm already 50% through taming the low level and all my tranqs are gone
that's ARK for ya 🤣

Best drakeling?
Spring > whatever the one that increases Attack
Winter and the other one are useless
if ya have the ability to install mods, there's one that gives ya a Drakeling with all 4 abilities
ya still have to go out of your way to tame all 4 though
What makes spring better I assumed it was autumn
or winter
Spring heals up to 15% max HP, reduce stamina consumption by 10% and converts some seeds into Rare Flowers
Winter only grants +10% Damage Resistance and +100 Insulation as well act as a portable Preserving Bin which is cool and all but ya won't be using it to store anything anyways
if ya play on Lost Colony, only Winter Drakeling spawns there so ya don't really have a choice
Autumn is the attack increase one so it's the second best one, especially for harvesting
but for general usage, ya just can't beat Spring
Guys my first rex is knocked out what do i dooo
it's still the best even after the nurf
Hey, im not sure if this belongs here or somewhere else, but im having a crashing issue that I have no idea how to fix. It seems that upon opening an obelisk, map doesn't matter the game insta crashes. Drops dont seem to have the same effect
knocked out by what?
Thanks 🙏🏽 sadly astraeos doesn't have spring drakelings 😭
if it's Single Player, try disabling Dino Download in your Single Player settings
are ya sure? they should spawn there, that's where I tamed my first Spring
are ya on Single Player by chance?
Nope not sure why they aren't
tranq arrows
Only see summer autumn and winter on the finder
then feed it meat to tame it??
its in the middle of red woods 🥲
that's strange, maybe go kill them off them and see if Spring can spawn
I think Spring is supposed to be the rarest one among them
and my friend is trying to tame a thylo but he keeps dying and refusing to help me
get yourself a Stego, they won't be able to dismount ya from it
What does frozen ice mean?
that seemed to fix it, am I able to turn it back on or am I stuck like this?
buff?
De bugf
until they fix it, keep it turned off and don't use the upload/download creature feature on Terminals, they're not reliable
Guys, what a tame u use to beat tek cave?
18 Therizi, 1 Yuty and 1 Carcha
Is Deinosuchus good for Overseer?
don't bother with Rexes unless ya have the Paleo mod or a modded crypod that allows ya to deploy creatures inside the Tek Cave
no, too large to maneuver inside the cave and aren't fast enough to run after the Overseer
the bleed has been nurfed too, it doesn't work on bosses now
I have crazy plan B using tek chestpiece and pump shotgun with 752% dmg
oh, the cheese way
yeah that works out, ya just need a Carcha to clear they way in
the Tek Chest, Grappling Hook and Climbing pick even don't work in the cave
So if we are duo we can beat Alpha Overseer with shotguns?
since ya have 700+ damage shotgun, ya can do it by yourself even
just make sure to bring a lot of bullets, at least 400-500
What is actually going on i keep dying at the starting beach on official because things run up to me and kill me
isn't that just ARK?
By the time its stopped doing that thing where youbwake up i've already lost so much health because things are attacking me on respawn animation
I think ya are being respawned in the same place because someone if not multiple people have build close to the default spawn points
the game will attempt to spawn your player as far as it can from player structures but if can fail to do so because most people suck on official
try hopping into another server
PS: my friend discovered thylos are hard to tame and is flying all the way to red woods to help me
I beg they make a option the stop these voice overs you get when checking these information treasure chest things
It was a pain to find this server
ya can turn it off in the game settings
it'll still play when ya first collect them but once ya close the pop-up, it'll immediately stop
that's just official for ya
Has anyone ever had the game just, uninstall itself?
winter rodes give dmg resistance tho so
What is the ice melting symbol in red??
(I just see the salon but doesn't help when the salon isnt called "questions lol)
i think it means your too cold
Guys i tamed my first rex! 🥳
are we at a point yet there are maps that don't crash every hour or so?
Yo guys wth I killed 5 spinos and there`s no any others on the map
kill the fish in the rivers
cos WC in their inf wisdom decided to stick them on same spawners....
cos wildcard reasons
guys should i upgrade from ase to asa?
if you like a nicer looking ase but with the same and some worse bugs then yes
arent they the same game?
pretty much just nicer graphics
u have ase?
Honestly I'm not sure I'd call it nicer looking, either. Definitely feels like they thought more stuff is better looking.
same bugs followed from ase, depends what you wanting from asa over ase? I have about10k hours in ASE
There are slight differences and ASA is more updated now but it's still fundamentally the same, yeah.
more than baron is crazy (btw he is a ase ytbr with 2k hours)
its riddled with bugs as to be expected so depends what you wanting, you official or unofficial server enjoyer? pvp or pve?
i want official
and ase unoficial servers dead im using gameshare too so most servers i cant join
pvp or pve?
pvp has raids but its fun raiding people so pvp
well enjoy the game breaking hacks and cheats people have xD
oh yeah
the hacks are worse than ase xD
wanna local play ase
conquest is the only pvp cluster the devs actually enforce bans on
they dont care about megatribes or smalls or arkpoc
so you could have a relatively good experience on conquest but the cheaters are bad on all pvp official servers cos the devs dont do much about it and ignore most tickets reported
btw i dont play on pc i play on a msi laptop with a rtx 1080 so my laptop will prob blow up
yup[
and yeh cheaters are annoying
yeah plus real money trading is a big thing in asa aswel
but whats good for running asa as gpu
people have ebay shops, discord servers to sell stuff for real money
erm, id honestly go with 32gb ddr4 withg 4k + speed and a 2070+ gpu
32gb in the ram pocalypce is diabolical
lol
i am getting a pc and it has a 4090 but its a buisnes card but prob good
is anyone having issues installing the Dino Depot mod?
prob 10k
na was just over £1000
ya british mate
yup
how do u chat in ase
press enter type then enter again
wana play ase or do u not have it installed
i havn't got it installed sorry mate
ok
and tbf i got asa installed but only pop onto unofficial pvp servers for a weekend every so often
ima go to ase bye
laters
I cant get 150 lvl dinos I only seen 120 and they go up 8 by 8 any solution?? (The İsland map)
I am still looking for a way to get my hands on one of the sunsetted official ASA servers from December 8th 2025 and was wondering if it is possible to order a server with Nitrado with a specific backup from one of those discontinued servers ? I would be very grateful if that could be a thing. Nitrado told me that i need to turn to Wildcard for the savefiles.
hop into The Center real quick, see if anything spawns over 120
not worth it
you can write this OverrideOfficialDifficulty=5.0 in your .ini file to dinos spawn 150 lvl
let's gooooo! what's the level?
but bcs its island there still gonna be low chance to them, and there still gonna be lvl 5 dinos
it takes 24 hours for the game to attempt to spawn one unless ya perform a dino wipe
the attempt can fail too
that's 24 IRL hours, not just in-game
yo can I change this in game files? xD
there is 265 lvl lol
it means you're too cold, your character will start losing health if ya don't up your fortitude or wear the appropriate armor
24 hours real time to wait until giga spawn is crazy
not without a mod
and 500 lvl too
yeah, they have very strict spawn parameters
imagine being on a map where they can spawn and they dun spawn 😅
get used to low levels then, all story maps are like this with the Island being the worst
In the caves or everywhere?
everywhere
awww ark never gives what I want these days
you sure u changed it in .ini files, not in game settings?
ya have increased your difficulty above 5?
nope and I changed it in ini
checked scorched earth rn and saw a 376 lvl anky
And not DifficultyOffset, OverrideOfficialDifficulty=5.0 right?
wait I need to check it
DifficultyOffset must be 1.0 (if you want like official)
1.0 = 150
with lost colony being the worst* 👀
yeah
no, the Island is still the worst, ya might have been playing with a mod that alters the spawn like Vanilla with Sprinkles back then
uh nope
then 5 = 750?
don't touch mods that alters those spawns or stacking mods tbh
looks like yes
also has anyone on SP checked to see if SP dino's don't respawn on render now for console?
I can check now
OverrideOfficialDifficulty=5.0 is also 150, so there is no logic here I think
and btw if you dont find OverrideOfficialDifficulty=5.0, just add it
Ossidons spawn on astraeos now?
its 1 but I couldn't find the overrideofficialdifffucilty
just wrote that lol
xd
I'm confused about something and hope someone can clarify. I know that on LC, you get R seeds from the tentacles plants, and I know it's not a guarantee to get one, but, is it a guarantee to get a specific one from a specific tantacle? Like, how there a tentacle over by 85 17. I keep getting fish seeds. Is that just what it gives, or am I super unlucky?
that will make it 150 lvl right??
nope, only Lost Colony
every one gives a different type of seed
if ya see a wild Ossidon on Astraeos, it's probably because it was left there from before Lost Colony
damn ras said they did in this video I just watched
On island there will be 150 but very rare
so you get a specific seed based on which tentacle you harvest?
mhm
can use that to grow a specific plant to harvest for food
Thank you
do i really have to use theris for dragon boss fight bc i do not want to breed them since i already have the rexs ready anyways
it's random
rexes are likely to take bigger losses
what was the setting?
how much does the breath do to rex vs theri?
Ok....
the breath is fixed 20% it's that the Dragon deals extra Damage to carnivores
I wanna say 15%?
alr ill just breed theris then
what does megalosaurus do ive never seen it before
on the Island, they're pretty rare, mostly found in caves
it looks like a small carno and sleeps during the day
strong at night, weak in day
strong is putting it lightly, it deals more damage than a Rex during the night
it's literally the strongest boss fighting dino
al;righty ill see to it then
finally! someone recognises the strength of the Megalosarus 😭
and now with the grab ai fix from ASA, they are top tiers
yep yep 🔥
if you can could try getting one theri to have a distracting trade since that reduces damage other take when it damages an enemy
i've been saying that they don't need a buff since the voting started and people painted them as ab merchants
saying meglo is weak is just saying u don't use them
granted that's if got the BTT dlc which could go further and put numb and vampiric on them to hunting for that could be annoying
bro, same
personally i only ever use them on ab for rockwell never anywhere else
it's really strong it's just that people are too lazy to use it the intended way
rest of the time on ab i use spino
wait for night time and they destroy any boss
for megapithecus i should just use rex and yuty right?
they were glitched for over a years too and that made them useless for bosses as they kept spamming the grab bite not the real bite
ok good i can do that soon then
u can use anything basicly, monkey is so easy
yep but don't go to its arena and instead, lure it to where your creatures are when ya enter it
Sometimes, the loot crate can glitch out and not spawn if ya beat it inside the arena
if u have theris for dragon, u have theris for monkey, no need for rex army
Anyone got an answer to why the Dino spawmnng command doesnt work?
Why is there mods on my installed page that are not "installed" and also they i ones i never selected for download??
Are reaper kings stats based off the mothers?
and your player level as well
there's a multiplier so the higher the Queen level and yours is, the higher level the baby will be
Is it fast and good to do legendary OSD drops on EXT if i want to exp "fast" from 110 to 155? or there is faster and easier way to do it?
these things keep getting buns melee stats
Can't get one over 40
Anyone else having missing engrams and stuff in containers and body’s
what's your player level?
85
Are u on official?
Guess the latest ARK update broke skins again. Was so nice to have auto working cosmetics.
No, but xp is on x1 like offi
Then u gonna spend a long time on osd
Also better do astra osds as they are way faster to do then ext ones
that's too low for a Reaper
I don't know how the exact math on the host multiplier works but ya need to be at least level 125 I believe
Oh wtf
that should be enough for 1x multiplier so if ya found yourself a Level 150 Queen, that should get ya a 150 reaper
yeah, it's really hard to get high level Reaper
it did say it was a 0.74 multiplier I think
what was the queen level?
also, did ya collect the 52k xp required for the additional 75 levels?
140
and I've been getting 178-182 reapers
what about this?
oh, there's a website for it 😲
Yeah I did that
Check for max lvl u can get on the site snow posted
then according to that website, the max ya should get used 179
that that 182 might be a mutation
So its the best thing to do? I mean there r eneaged dinos giving tons of xp etc. But i have no idea how thats working on Astra and how does work OSDs there, they r lightning or smth like that, idk dinos etc.
Also if that is only the best way or is there anything faster 😄
same thing
Enraged Corrupted Rex = Enraged Lighting Rex
the best part about doing in Astraeos is that, only Alpha and Legendary OSD spawn there
so ya don't have to waste time to Gamma and Beta
Whoa thats huge lol
Its same on astra as it is pn ext just different names for dinos if u want to maximize xp use a tribe tower drakeling and broths of enlightement when i did it i also dropped a toilet nearby and used shotgun to kill rexes howering over them with tek suit
On x1 with capped tribe tower and all esentials i jjst named ull get anywhere from 1.8-2.2 mil xp per rex
and if ya are on PVE, ya can just place Stone Gateways around the OSD
and if ya have access to the Tek Forcefield, ya can build one nearby to retreat
But those will be f*ed up so fast, or not?
on PVE, corrupted creatures cannot damage structures
Wow, thats nice
not sure if Wood or Thatch works but Stone and Metal does
And any good spot to stay here like whole day?
thank those toxic players for that, they used to drag corrupted creatures to people bases
Highest I got was a 178 nvm my friend got the 182 I think bc he's a higher lvl then me
toxic, not PVP, my bad
Haha I see
And if u want to gain a shit loads of xp in few mins on x1 ext wandering kt with full tribe tower buff drakeling x2 and x4 note broth of enlightemenet is around 70 80 milion xp not sure of the exact number
Yo ill farm tribute for anyone willing to give up a couple of FFA tames
Is there any way to optimize the game? I get 55 fps in 1440p in a 5090 and its nearly unplayable
I'm on 4k with a 5070ti and get 150 are you on max settings or smthin?
@heavy cedar when or how to fix missing inventory or engrams I can’t play
Turn off clouds and fog u will be above 80 90 even on full epic with 5090
wow, even using a $2000+ GPU, ya have to turn off cloud and fog
what a joke this game is
Ye epic I get 90 fps in 4K Medium
Wish it was 2k g copped it for 4000 and it was the cheapest one rn😭
I mean i aint the looks guy i run 9070xt but do turn it why wouldnt i turn off something thay gives massive boost in performance yet is absolutely useless to be in game
Alr ty bro
How do the cryopods work in ASA
Drop down yr resolution scale a notch too if u want even more fps like 75 80 is good enough
The thing is that doesnt increase anything for whatever reason I have 55 fps without DLSS and with DLSS P I srill have 55 with worse image how does that make sense? Dropping res scale also doesnt increase fps
But yea this shit shouldnt be happening with yr card anyways ark is just optimized like a brick
fr its impossible to have a great experience unless u tweak the settings with any high end card
game is made for 2030
Issue is even with better cards i doubt this game will run better
32 gigs of vram on 5090 and u cant get 60 fps
Like come on
testing this titan killer teraxititan egg got that has only 30 hp so low but 57 melee and seeing how well it scales
prob only gonna use it for just chill hide farming etc or boredome but eh
But like how do they even achieve such bad performance😭 if it released in 2025 I wouldnt be suprised but its from 2023 where AAA were releasing somewhat optimized the 4090 was struggling hard with it back then
hmm with 30h it still has 83k base hp interesting
This is purely game optimization issue yr pc is already a beast
Good thing is idc for looks ill drop all my settings and use all commands to run 240 fps xD
I still keep some high but most are low like i dont need to see bilion trees and bushes with epic view distance
240 fps the 9070xt be cooking
real
Well my settings are mostly low and idc about it xD
Legit card fans dont even turn on with them settings lmao
so uh titan killer terax seems eh for using it's breath
using it's regular melee was hitting upwards of 20k per bite if used that while regular was hitting for 14k and over 2k per breath tick vs titan killers 1.5k if buff active
so only reason to use titan killer tbh is it's sheer size means it's attack hitbox can go into middle of an outpost use tail spin and almost wipe whole place out
What in the shit is titan killer? A carcha?
oh you think it's carch level? oh silly person that's regular teraxititan
titan killer is titan level
thing is so massive a behemoth gate only comes up to below it's elbow's or so
Why are my modded outfits not appearing in custom cosmetics after i crafted it???
well comparing modded creatures to base game creatures, sure 🙂
i mean, why not just go one of those overhaul mods then, those eat those teraxititan for breakfast
or wait, just go level 1000000, compared to normal
I had no clue what the heck he was talking about lmao
the regular teraxititan is around giga and full set carch in terms if melee
some modded creature
also i never trust those creatures vs creatures thing since they alwaya seem to use lvl 1 and no saddles or anything or use anything other then basic attacks
what's it's current health?
83k base
🙃🙃🙃🙃
I see that now lmao
do ya even need points in health at this point
40h was around 103k hp
personally aside from it's melee being insane bit more then regular version feels bugged tbh
at this point i still prefer glaucus or the simple bombardier beetle
not some super solo god creature for latter but fun and reliable
When are transfer open for lost colony?
what triggers server roll back and why is it so much rolling back today?
mid feb iirc
on official or unofficial?
official
btw reminds me ick have you ever tried the draconis glaucus out?
does it happen on every map or just Lost Colony?
name suggestion for my gigantophis
slim jim
thanks
only cause it reminds me of those bigfoot commercials where they messed with sasquatch who took their slim jims etc 😅
anyone else having their characters deleted on unofficial? keeps happening to people on my server
Mr Cameron
Lol, but I have no idea which dinos i have to take, but I guess i need to kill him
Carcha
Just use 2 carchas whistle the other one to the other leg to attack so u aint stun locked
And what about his super Ball, super pouch and rockets?
rockets?
None of that happenes on wandering kt well it does but dmg is basically nothing like the boss KT
Does anyone else get the problem that under the bridge where the beaver dams are they just instantly crash when they approach it?
Plus i guess to stack them to 100 stacks first?
I remember he threw a Ball on me and he insta killed me also on my gig as a rider
on Single Player? yes, that's a bug
is there anyone else who cant craft anything on smalls?
No, server.
And i had caped ghillie set
There is no ball here and depensing how good yr carcha is 100 stack might be needed but i never get it with my carcha
Wandering kt dies in like a min or so
I have 45hp/md stats carchas
Does anyone else get the problem that under the bridge where the beaver dams are they just instantly crash when they approach it?
Have caped 124,8
124 is cap unles u are on unofficial
Im on unoffi, but they have caps like on offi
Gotcha u should be fine then be careful of meteors that kt spawns bring flak with u and med brew
124.8 🤔
Yeah thats the offi cap, or am i wrong?
no, 124 is the exact cap
I also play with the official cap I have multiple capped saddles, none are above 124
Yea offi cap is 124 saddles weapons 298 tek 159.4 or .6 something like that
Flak 496 dura 2086
Yeah then MB, i was thinking its 124,8
At least im not sure if ill stack carchas to max that fast, kt is despawning so fast haha, and should i ride them or just whiskey them to attack?
whistle
Oki
if ya ride and he does the super mega ball, ya die instantly
Kt usualy spawns around same time every day on a server we have set up tps around 4 cardial directions around city so we can easily get to it when it spawns
And u can build up stacks around the time kt spawns at and wait at tp
Oh thats true I can prepare
Ill try that tomorrow then,but I have no tribe tower on ext :/ so i guess it will be low xp
Thats what killed me last time I was just trying him haha, I was riding a dino but got ik and dino get 0 dmg
Yo my friend wants to buy lost colony but can’t , the fact is that he got asa with the game pass , anyone got a solution ?
anyone just had this with the lost colony boss? we've completed the full boss fight, killed everything and beat Lost queen
after coming out of the cinematic it just said 'mission failed' anyone had this problem?
we didnt skip the cutscene
Does anyone else get the problem that under the bridge where the beaver dams are they just instantly crash when they approach it?
On lc
Steam is strange. It lists Lost Colony as a DLC but says it's N/A. What you need to buy is Lost Colony Expansion Pass.
New to ASA how do I enable like tooltips on PC to see like full name of items when I hover over them
Press Q
ty
that's probably because of the Drakelings and Elderclaw getting seperated from it soon
Yea. When that happens you will probably be able to buy just Lost Colony. But not for now.
Hey guys
also is there a reason when im farming supplies they dont show on the left side of my screen? I looked through my setting but not seeing anything for it
whelp i completed all the LC missions and got most of what wanted to grab
try #pve-discussion , this one is more mixed official/unofficial/modded
u guys are hot if i open a unofficial conquest on island on rate 5x no mods no cheating no p2w wipe every 1-2 month
Wildcard, please, make it easier to uninstall dynamically downloaded premium cosmetic mods. Going through 100+ folders to nuke them is more painful than accidentally opening an unpowered cryofridge
whats stopping you from pressing unstall all?
and am now getting the bug where it deletes saddle when uncryo a dino
wildcard please look into the maps crashing and rolling back since update jan 12 it started each map states in crash stack each map has a different dino listed Fatal error!

Finding all the mods again
Why should I uninstall 100+ mods just to remove a singular specific mod?
This is so true, I feel like this is also breaking the custom skins I already installed since I have to regularly reinstall certain ones as they stop showing up and then I gotta wipe pages of stupid premium mods in folder manually, literally so dumb to not have an uninstall ingame if it’s premium shit
Is the lost knights skin pack going to get more skins in the future
Anyone from ASAR on LC 6382 here?
Vanilla air conditioners have an absolutely minuscule two foundation radius, right?
Remind me why Attack Outposts in the wild don't give sigils when they're arguably harder than the city ones
Bcs ark
is giant bee taming glitched? It wont show me the feeding prompt, im using ascendant ghillie suit and rare flower on the last slot
hitbox on taming then very spotty
For the "Supreme Tamer" milestone, I tamed 5 titanoboas, and none of them counted. Anyone else have the same issue?
@heavy cedar @sage plover guys there is something very wrong happening with 6346 Lost Colony server. Crashes and rollbacks 10 times a day and then players lose gear and dinos forever . Map is hard enough, we lose every day more than we can handle. Rage quit today, lost all my inventory tames and all the guns i had . Not cool.
anyone else seen an insane amount of frog spawns in the easy spawns on lost colony or just me
there a point in running OSD past 14?
Question would someone know how to improve the poly on our tames on ps5, a recently had made them look low poly, so is there any commands I could do to improve their visuals
Have they changed the way the spino spawn on the island? I've killed a ton of fish up and down the River and I cannot get a single spawn.
Spino spawns are extremely rare, so if you are playing a single player, what I would recommend is just using the destroy wild dino command.
They started spawning right after I wrote this LOL. After about 10 trips up and down the River. I play on official
I have a question for people who are familiar with modding and commands. Using only mods or commands, because I am on Xbox and cannot mess with I&I files, is there a way to dramatically reduce the density of the leaves and stuff, or just delete them all together.
I don't think their spawn rules have been changed. They just are exceedingly rare.
Been awhile since I've played nearly a year. They've always been rare. The trick is to go up and down the river with a giga or a carcha and I will start popping up
Also, looking on a different map generally helps. I find there far more common on I think it was the center. It's been a while since I've played as well.
That would be fine if you could take them cross server
Man, dinos seem to spawn way slower in ASA than ASE. It's been hours and spawns are still going up. Evidently I'll be stuck doing wipes every few play sessions instead of every session...
its a dino that is crashing the map same happening to my unofficial since the jan 12 update my crash stack fikes shows this Last Replicated Actor YoungIceFox_DinoCompanion_Character_BP_C_2144489790
Submit a ticket for any issues. submits a ticket for a character bug when I ate a mind wipe on lost colony and it kept my levels. Mind you I was a capped lv 195. And now I’m back to lv 104. Survive the ark closes my ticket with no contact and says it’s been resolved when I heard nothing from no one. GG wildcard 😭
Honestly, there probably isn't much they can do to solve your issue.
Bro those blue screens
I'm trying to get this to work but my drakling won't transfer the exp to a dino and give me a drakling loot drop, anybody have a good reason why it won't. I tried all dinos even ones that would work before. What's the catch to it if anybody can help
Playing fiber btw
Very comforting knowing that so much goes unable to be helped after pouring years of time into this
Are you on an official server, private server or single player?
Official PvP. Console
Then, there isn't much to say other than tough lock grind for the levels again.
@heavy cedar make ark great again 😭
Does anyone else have issue with the mod prevent hibernation, before the update i have around 9000 dinos on my map and now i barely have 50/100
I was just in my SP file, game crashed so I loaded it back up and my character is just gone lol
Can’t even grind that back cause I used all the note xp and what not
So you're telling me you can't get above 105 without notes? I know that's not true if you've ascended your character.
No I’m saying the amount of xp I’ll have to get to get back to the higher levels is gonna be wild
Carcharodontosaurus and everyone wants to accept you of anything breedable that you can kill in this game so maybe get an army of them breeding and good luck.
You know what. You got it big dawg.
Is there any tames that you don't give aggression in the city on lost colony?
That don't give you*
How do you make your own offical server? Is it easy?
Ohh ive googled it. Quite a mission.
You can't make an Official server. Only WC can do that. But Unofficial dedicated you can setup.
Yeah that's dumb lol
ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Dedicated_server_setup explains how to setup an unofficial dedicate server pretty well.
Thank you but something needs to be done asap. Sick of fixing haircuts and other trash while real problems are elsewhere.
I'll have a look thanks
i am not sure what you are clicking "download" on, DLCs only have an option to enable or disable them. they show up as an update for the game in steam's update section if you enable them
If I clone something will it keep the points I put in it or will I have to re lvl it?
I got bored of the island any tips for what should I do now?
Go to every other server and start fresh dont transfer anything lol
Are Alpha Reaper Kings currently bugged? They don't appear to spawn at all, and I've been killing the regular Surface Reaper Kings, but it just won't appear. Might end up spawning them instead
to anyone experiencing the issue with Drakeling chests asking ya to own the dlc, apparently, ya need to own Bob Tales to open the chests
it's a bug that's probably caused by the fact that Elderclaw and Drakelings are getting seperated soon
welcome to ARK my friend, I gave up after 60 hours
hmm noticed the teraxititan flame breath was good vs rev bronto but took bit to kill it so should test with the melee attacks
they're extremely rare
sadly the saddle bug kinda a pain to deal with
So they're required to complete aberration, but they don't actually appear. Good to know, I'll spawn them instead. Boring AF
it ignores the leg thing?
no they do, they're just very rare
I've read that someone took 2 weeks until they get one to spawn on their Single Player
dunno if it did or not but it was doing dmg and bronto died just before could attack
on dedicated or Single Player with Prevent Hibernation, it should be faster though
prevent hibernation does not actually speed up spawns
it still gonna take ya killings hundreds until one appears
there is a different arg for that now, it has side effects
yeah but it does make then spawn in areas that ya have visited once but aren't currently rendering
which ya need to do since ya will be jumping from once surface entrance to the other in search
ok so far lost colony outposts are spawning 50% of ones i found on Single player vs on PVE official, hopefully new patch fixes people building around non builadble areas
tbh not sure if the unridden the ossidons got could handle one flank of a defense
it does not. just makes stuff not despawn entirely, so it shows up on scanners. all it does is change how stuff behaves when unloaded - saved, vs just frozen
Lame. I'll resort to spawning them. Other survival games such as Palworld and Soulmask contain exceptionally better boss mechanisms. Dedicated locations to grind with respawning elites instead of just randomly "hoping" they appear. I have better stuff to do than run around an area with my brain turned off in hopes the game says: "Okay, you can progress now".
Alpha Reaper doesn't show up Gene Scanner I believe?
No need, I use the Der Dino Finder mod. Can directly see everything on the map with ease
What do castorodes eat for tame?
der dino finder does not really do anything in singleplayer
have ya looked into the Reaper mod I suggested?
crops or majoberry
preferred kibble is Superior or above
I host my own cluster, it's astronomically more manageable than single-player with far better granular control on per-server configs
😓
Singleplayer can be great, but Ark ties everything into render distance for that game mode. It's not well designed... At all
@red bobcat the Alpha Reaper Queen rewards ya with an Alpha Reaper Barb and all ya need to summon her is to use Reaper Essence before killing a Reaper Queen
EDIT: 1 Barb, not 3, my bad
I totally forgot to check it out. Got busy all day with a snowstorm and just sat down to play again. I'll pitch the idea to a buddy currently on the server and go from there
love when 2 reaper queens spawn inside of each other and 1 was a 140 :/
all good, just wanted to let ya know that there is a very attractive option instead of wasting time on hunting Alpha like ya said
good stats?
i don't know they were stuck together and i only saw level
Anyone on PlayStation able to enter the city without crashing?
only on dedicated server, PS5 Pro and a setting that disables the spawning of non-outpost NPC
And even then, I still crash
just today, I crashed when I mined a gargoyle
Are they planning on fixing it/said anything about it or just letting it stay like this
yep not not anytime soon, they don't care about console players since they don't test the game there to begin with
I still have the open inventory crash
nice 🤦🏼♀️
Only happens on rag and lost colony
only happened on val for me and sometimes LC
it is a concession to not require someone to have 64GB RAM to play singleplayer
Is it better to play single player or non dedicated for the crashes? Cause on single player i been loosing loads of stuff
realistically it would be more like 128GB+ if it worked the way SP does now
neither, the game mode is irrelevant
non-dedicated will just make ya hate yourself
instead of saving or making a backup from the Pause Menu, ya have to use seperate commands with the savebackup commands ignoring the 3 max limit which can eventually corrupt your save file if ya didn't regularly clean old backups
Servers only require 12GB, pair that with Ark's 5GB on client, don't need more than 32GB ram total. There really should be a tickable option for different methods to handle un-rendered dinos (technically stasis) as Ark's documentation puts it.
64 is fine I think
what Wildcard need to do is just pull the game from console stores and refund an everyone affected
any1 got a fix for not being able to craft and having things ghost duplicate when taking things out of inventory? tried server transfer out ad back in, bed transfer, respawning etc
this game is clearly not meant to be played on current Gen consoles
I don't know why they pretend it's not when they themselves clearly don't test the game on consoles
not how anything works. also 5GB on client!? lol? dedicated servers get off light by not having any of the graphics files, audio, ect installed or needed. singleplayer loading the entire map the way a server does would use an obscene amount of memory. and a dedicated server that is full of stuff can easily use 20-40GB
I couldn't even imagine playing Ark on controller. Unironically, I've been looking at getting a smaller scale keyboard just for the whistle commands themselves, especially since emotes are now a requirement to toggle creature states
Only Light pets require ya to use emotes, no?
is there another creature that I'm not aware of 🤔
also, whenever ya hover an item in any inventory it says "Right Click for more details" on console....
I didn't pull these numbers out of anywhere. I am quite literally looking at Task Manager for these values. The Ragnarok server I'm hosting with numerous large bases (included modded ones), is sitting at 4.6GB with only ONE player inside of it. As for my client in Ark, it's pulling 5,100MB (rounded up). I don't know where you've got those values from.
We're not talking about a dedicated server "full of stuff" we're talking about getting server-like functionality for stasis dinos in Singleplayer. That way resources don't need to be within render-distance to respawn and what not.
145 reaper queen with both melee and hp at 26
Does anyone have female carchas for sale?
task manager is worthless, it is not showing you swap usage. also the point about singleplayer not having the option to skip loading graphics? but if you dont know how computers work, that is over your head and pointless, so..
5GB client use in ASA is downright comical, though. never happening
ASE even easily hits 10-15GB
how do i make a post for mutiplayer
Who said anything about skipping graphics loading? Also, you don't store the audio files in RAM... The exe pulls those files from the game install as needed... You're not pulling every single cutscene from The Island while playing on other maps... You do know that right?
yes, i have a decade experience with unreal and specifically ark's assets and code
probably best to not preach if you dont even know what the fuck swap is or what is or is not streamed
decent!
hi guys
I am familiar as I've had to increase paging size to 32GB for games requiring 12GB of RAM, which I didn't have at the time while owning only 16GB. (Specifically 7 Days to Die with lots of mods). So again, what exactly is your point? That singleplayer could never keep track of resources not in render distance without taking 128+ GB of ram because it needs audio files and cutscenes loaded 24/7? What?
didn't take long to get the 75 levels so now i wait
I wish you the best of luck! Don't forget to eat the pheromone prior to the great birthing
eh i got a 2x1 box set so should be fine
looking at this thing and 42 hp 48 melee so works for me
Hi im new
Welcome!
Thanks
welcome
Thanks
Is there a problem with the Bob's Tall Tales mod? I can't use a gene scanner
Bob tall tales is a dlc
But ask in #bobs-with-probs
what does happen?
mb I got the DLC, but ingame says I have to install it, even though it's already installed, and it won't let me use anything.
I was fine a few hours ago
What happens if you install it again?
It says I need to install it, but it's already installed.
Try installing it again
Player 1 issue 🤣
is there a ps5 mod that removes the wyvern looking thing entirely from lost colony
Can ossidons go into boss fights?
Yes
What wyvern looking thing?
it's like the wyvern but it's several times faster and it doesn't move properly like it's flying is buggy
Anyone else having ghost inventory items, disappearing cyopods and such? Over the past week I lost an ossidon and 2 reapers as well as random tools and weapons.
Seems to happen at the end of outpost missions the most
A managarmr?
They are one of the best ways to get around lost colony. Great to traverse the highs and lows
Gotta love how you can go up 30C just from moving a foot to the left in this game.
Facts
all i got is if throw out a dino saddle poofs
Is something up with ankylo spawns on The Island? There are only five ankylos on my entire map with 3x spawns.
Where do I enable them…? I’ve been through steam and in game haven’t seen anything correlated to this
properties -> DLC, same as for every game
The DLCs were enabled automatically for me when I pressed the download button. After actually downloading, too, ofc.
Okay, yeah, something is definitely broken with ankylos. Only one on the entire map with 3x spawns is definitely not right.
My friend has an unofficial server…we ascended on the island and uploaded our characters. Then they switched the hosted map to scorched earth. We downloaded our characters and made our way to green on to get our items. As soon as we got to green on the server crashed and now our characters are gone. (We play on xbox but the server is hosted through nitrado)
Is there any way possible of getting our old characters back or are we just ark’d??
roll back the save on nitrado
We’re new to nitrado how do we do that
i am not familiar with their UI, not sure. it should be pretty clearly accessible. you should keep your own backups via their ftp browser, though
Is there a way to play multiplay with others on Playstation?
Or how to find a multiplayer server
you wont find exclusively PS servers, the game is crossplay
No like how on my Playstation
Because im pretty new and I see host/local
And I looked in TSOTF and there's no servers
TSOTF is effectively shut down
Why?
because absolutely nobody played it
Oh... how do I play with other people tho?
ark's pvp crowd really does not want a level playing field, short-term mode
if you mean TSOTF.. you dont. otherwise, you just join a normal server?
that means exactly what it says 🤔 are you trying to find a friend's session?
On YouTube I saw someone with like a list of severs like dedicated and non dedicated
Like not host a server join a local one
really not clear what you are trying to do and what the problem is. or if there is a problem with a server or the game
is your server list blank?
from the main menu 🤔 just open the game
Ohhhh shiiiiiii this is ark ascended not evolved mb
do you not have an internet connection or something?
that would probably prevent it from even logging in, which changes the menu iirc
Is their a way to re edit my character? The scissors do not give me access to the color wheel like on creation and the dyes are just making my hair white instead of the intended color
bruh trying to do outposts in city sucks when thrall either get into spot can't kill or the thing says 0 enemies remaining but won't spawn the boss
Anyone having trouble joining unofficial servers? Says 0 on every server and for map says unknown I’ve restarted my game and my ps a couple times and nothing works?
Any LC Reapers up for pve
bruh and the inventory crash bug not helping 😓
wonder where snow be
bruh the LK did the threat and was like "my forge master will deal with-" right as 1 shot the cutting him off 😅
Hello, we're having multiple issues of people losing their characters.
Seems like most of the times whap happens is that shortly after they transfer maps, they get DC'd. Then when they try to log back in their character isn't on they either of the maps they transferred to or from.🤦🏻♂️
I know Ark has alot of issues, but is there a way we as admins can try to reduce or limit this?
If they lost a char in official make #character-restoration
Let's gooo
city still problematic but as long as the outposts aren't on those massive bridges they doable for most part
also turned out railgun could not infact reach stuck enemy on said bridge but incendiary grenade could but that caused them to glitch and fall through bridge pillar but meh
Another inventory and hotbar lost randomly... Lucky the game is only Early Access....
it's less lost and more invisible
was able to get it to show up by transfering all to vault and fast traveling to one bed to 2nd one in base and grabbing dropped stuff
was no bag after fast travelling, we have used this method many times in the last few weeks due bugs
how odd
are graptors broken right now? baby in every nest refuses to emote
im level 6 on a new save on rag and alr managed to snag myself a baby 140 anky thanks to the help of a rex killing the mother.
A wins a win
sadly theres like 5 poision wyverns over level 150 near my base
Has anyone tried running more than 5 people on the lost colony fight since the patch? is it actually patched?
How to prevent titanosaur despawning?
Tried to spawn a doedicurus on lost colony, was told doeds cant be on this map wtf
Is anyone else experiancing their saved character presets not being what they saved??
does anyone know how to turn off berry harvest on megatherium? i'm collecting way too many berries fighting in the caves
Go tame a baby?
Read what i said again please
They do spawn
where a good place to find ossadon saddles i cant find any i try outpost and cave drops dragon cehc sence lc came out iv not found a single one.
why are megaraptors so tuff holy
Red drop in one of the caves
Do the devs know that free structure cosmetics mods absolutely still do not work? I've been trying to use the free gothic Citedal Structure Skins mod and Arkitectur Paradise free structure cosmetics mod and they still don't work since they dropped the update. The only things that work are premium mods but free mods absolutely still do not work.
use a mod
I find that inputting commands manually don't work most of the time but mods do for some reason
Anyone that plays asa with the game pass can tell me how to actually buy lost colony ? I can’t do it. Both expansion pass and dlc says that i need to buy the game
it's a bug, wait for a patch
if ya are playing on Xbox, why does your username has PSN tag?
this is so confusing, man
Is lost colony worth it
not right now
wait for a sale, preferably a bundle with Bob Tall Tales if ya haven't purchased that
but even then, unless ya play on unofficial server or host/rent your own dedicated, don't bother buying it for PS5 Single Player
I'm on the Pro model, playing on my dedicated server and I'm this close from raging out and breaking both my console and monitor from the weekly issues
Is there a way to reactivate flight after disabling it with Archaeopteryx
I did a test where I pressed square mid air to try and fly but died cause I couldn't figured out if I could start flight again
don't ya just jump with it then hold it?
that thing is mostly useless anyways, ya literally just died using it
it does make sap generation faster though, at least on ASA that is
it's funny it's why I tamed it
Building skins dont work now or???
yep, patch broke it
understandable, disregard what I said, now go jump from the volcano
been there done that
then jump from the area just before the entrance to the Island final boss arena 😈
where the light beams are falling down (don't want to spoil it for people)
Aberration must be intended to provoke a massive grind. The Rockwell terminal wants alpha Karkinos, Basilisk, and Reaper King components, yet Der Dino Finder hasn't detected any spawns for said creatures. Console commands have been pulling us through this map. Never faced this problem in The Center, The Island, or Scorched Earth. Not a huge fan of Aberration, it's exceptionally counter-intuitive for a progressive experience.
Alpha Karkinos and Basilisk are way more common than Reaper
I pretty much always have on st any given time on my dedicated server
Currently there is 0 Alpha Karkinos in a total pool of 19956 creatures
ya need to kill regular ones, it has 5 or was it 10% chance to spawn in place
but I guarantee ya that it's nowhere as bad as Alpha Reaper
anyone got a good asa pvp server
Been using console commands to spawn these creatures in for evisceration. Soulmask is MUCH better in this regard to dedicated locations for "elite" (alpha) spawns.
That is beyond tedious, can't think of a worse way to spend my time in a video game.
that's how it was on the Island though
I guess ya got lucky with Alpha Leed, Mosa, Tuso and Rex?
and again, it's not as bad as Alpha Reaper, ya can reliably force an Alpha Karkinos and Basilisk to spawn in a single session
Perhaps? They spawned immediately after dying, only issue was swimming to the newer location.
Teleporters 🦾
This was back in 2024, didn't have them at the time
wait, really? I thought the teleporter were added in ASE early like the Egg Incubator
We never used the vanilla ones, been utilizing Awesome Teleporters! since Ragnarok
my man 🦾🦾🦾🔥
same exact mod I'm using
I just disabled the Act as Terminal setting
for some reason, ya have to drag items one by one to it instead of double clicking like regular terminals
Not quite sure what that is. We've never had grievances with exploring or alpha hunting, but we mostly use it for teleporting near resource-rich locations and artifact nabbing
Hi guys 👋
Im lf a pro builder to Design me a nice castle like lord of the rings
Im on ps5 asa
your game will probably crash 50 times before ya even finish building that castle
by default, the Teleporter Pad from Awesome Teleporters acts as a Terminal
ya the server owner can disable it by using ini though
was there any dates for gen 1 release or nah?
no dates, just quarter 2 of of this year
Gotcha, I kept that enabled in the config. Everyone hated flying across the map to insert items into an obelisk; It added tedium without a single benefit
I'd rather they don't give dates because they always end up delaying it
fr
remind me again, is your server hosted on Nitrado or locally?
ty tho just wanted the rough idea of when it might be
All locally. BAT file hell 😄
Should be after the 5.7 engine upgrade which unfortunately, they did say that it'll be in March or April
knowing these clowns, it'll probably be on May or June
then may I recommend ya a mod that can help with transporting items across clusters even?
not even their fault tho atp
Sure!
100% their fault.
They delayed Lost Colony like 4 times under the premise that they need to polish it and look how that ended up
eh the bts might be a bit different feel like its just sg making bs they gotta do
Personal Cluster Storage
it's a Level 120 engram and by default, it requires Tek Generator and is capped at 50 slots but ya can turn off power requirement and increase the slot number (I recommend no more than 600 to avoid potential issues)
If ya want ya and your players to access their stuff across clusters, ya need to create a Symlink which I can help ya with, nothing too complicated but if ya just add it your servers like that, each player on the server will have thier own Personal Storage on every map that not even admins can access it (unless ya modify the mod file which contains data for each player)
I have it set up on all my clusters so whenever I want to transport stuff that ARK transfer don't allow like Apex drops and Element for example, I just check everything in it
it even doubles as a refrigerator
I'll take a look here in a bit, need to solve some real world problems first
all good, my apologies for ranting about mods like this, I always want to let people know about some amazing mods out there that aren't popular enough
I don't feel your ranting, Ark is just a very special game that has extreme functional power, but everything is duct taped together 😄
couldn't have worded it better 🤣
"Hello, I need help. In Lost Colony (official servers), my Reaper transformed into a Managarmr while in the cryopod. Now I have two identical Managarmrs in cryo. How can I get my Reaper back, please?"
Wait what
U can do nothing, only report bug and hope they fix it.
My tribe lost many tames under mesh, lost all the things we took for boss because server crashed (even veilwyns) . No one bothered to write ticket since its hard to get even deleted character back even more a tame
My character was rollback deleted because of an update on Friday and I have been getting the run around from an email prompt. Now what am I to do?
It's been two weeks since I started rebuilding my equipment. I use my Ossidon Reaper, but not even for an hour. My character dies in my Tek bed and my equipment disappears. Wilcard's management is getting worse and worse. Notes and maps disappear too, and they never respond to tickets.
I found a fix to the bug where you cant tame baby dinos sometimes, if you just hit the baby with your fist once it lets you tame it
Does anyone know when we can transfer into lost colony?
Back to this topic. Der Dino Finder displayed 9 basilisks on the map. I killed 5 of them, now I have 4 listed, but there isn't an alpha. Super happy for console commands, because this is atrocious. Ark really needs dedicated locations where alphas always reside (respawning every 10 minutes) to heavily mitigate the tedium required to actually progress. This is a video game, not a job, but it certainly feels like it at times.
was it by chance an OP reaper? as in one that was birthed from a thrall?
it's 5-10% chance and RNG at the end of the day so ya probably need kill every single Basilisk on the map
if Wildcard made it so that Alphas spawn in a specific area, that would cause issues because people will rush it build there
just looking at how the Alpha Ossidon is currently on Lost Colony
their spawn rate is just as bad as Alpha Reaper
and apparently, they can only spawn in one location of the map
???
That's fine, make them non-buildable zones. Soulmask did exactly that and works without any issues. Granted it's more designed toward a PvE experience, which is precisely where my group thrives. I've got 2 people who refuse to touch Ark until I tell them we're ready for a boss and another one who actively plays, but doesn't do ANY artifact hunting or dino culling because it's "not fun".
To put it bluntly, if I wasn't the server host and willing to spend time adjusting the plethora of configuration options (which I'm totally content with doing), they wouldn't be playing Ark. There's only so much that I can do as a host to keep my group actively playing. Currently, it's just me participating in this Discord server because they don't share the same level of passion for Ark. It's sitting at negative reviews for way more reasons than just optimization. Player time just isn't being accounted for, at all.
Soulmask and Palworld are the only 2 progressive survival games that my group has sat ALL THE WAY through. Valheim crashed for us when we spent 1+ hour in a boat doing nothing on a handful of occasions. "Do we want to sit in a boat for another 30 minutes, or do we want to quit and play Schedule I", pretty obvious what we did there. Haven't touched Valheim in a very long time.
so which bosses can the malwyn ground? Dragon, Manticore, ragnaroks nunatak?
How can I make suggestions for Willcard? I'd really like to have mod presets for single-player games, like when you launch The Island, two mods automatically activate, and if you launch Valguero, other mods automatically activate.
guys i want best setting for fps
Wildcard doesn't care about Single Player, it doesn't make them money
Depends on what kinda of a pc or console u play on
ye and that location has so many bases, because its only expect springs that isnt fully covered in snow xd
Also its kind of flat
i hunted a lot for ossi and itsn only place i seen alfa. and its only alfa i seen (none cache ones). u cant really tame dreadmare (unless lucky with tributes)
while alfa zombie exists it often drops nothing and gives no xp
Alfa's as whole dont spawn nearly at all
I think someone built too close to the spawn. Apparently nobody has seen an alpha in like 2 weeks. There's a tribe that now just kills Ossidons on sight to try and spawn one.
Yes, I play on official. Yes, I know doodoo.
I genuinely feel for you. Official is like dragging your balls through 1 mile of broken glass (I wouldn't recommend).
Hey guys
PC
Thats not really helping me mate xD
U can run a 6800xt or 5090 settings will be very different
Quick question. I'm playing on a public server and I'm new. Does anyone have a dinosaur or two they don't need anymore?
i dont no
Brotha just tell me yr pc specs so i can tell u how to tweek yr settings...
Follow these steps:
- Press the Windows key
- Type "Task Manager" and open it
- Go to the performance tab
- Click GPU at the very bottom of the list
Then tell us what it says in the top right above the chart

Now we hope it isn't integrated AMD or Intel graphics 😄
I run amd card wtf u mean i run ark at 240 fps xD
And thats bcs i am capped by monitor
Forgot a key word in there to specify iGPU
Now thats fine xD
I have friends that run it on 5090 its same shit as my card if we crank up settings ark runs like shit
Dont matter what card u have u gotta sacrifice something in settings
Yep. I have quite literally over 148 gigas on a floating platform. With the HUD enabled, I get 28-30fps, with the HUD disabled, I spike to 80fps
It's pretty bad
As soon as i turn off clouds and fog i get extra 30 40
Crazu how few unecesary things change game so much
Shadows are a HUGE FPS killer, needs to re-render objects numerous times. It's become common practice to set shadows at medium quality regardless of game
Meh too many things u dont need for gameplay
Nope, but as someone with terrible depth perception, I need them at least low
anyone know how to fix losttimeout connection ???
anyone else having a bug where all ur tribes structures become un usable cant craft or interact with anything in em on lost colony? or any clue how to fix it maybe
It just suddenly that keep on crashing from 20 minutes ago
CPU activity ?
@red bobcat
We need to know what your graphic card is and amount of ram to tell you which settings can work. Those 2 are probably 2 most important components
You can tell us your cpu too but i ark is high gpu intensive game so gpu matters the most
Good morning, can anybody tell me if the evo it’s over ?
Mannn these severs have went down like 15 -20 times wth can’t even fully farm tame or explore the water I’ve lost a lot this weekend
Same timed out
With 3060 ull have to keep yr settings on mostly low keep textures on medium or high if u see too much fps drop lower them
There are commands that u can use to increase the fps in game
Likw ones to remove clouds and fog keep shadows on low too
what about frame rate and Quality
Id also suggest running gsme in 1080p insted of 1440p
Can you come room?
Soon but not now currently at work
okay
30 mins or so then ill have some spare time
i make the frame rate 60
Is it just me or ist it crazy hard to find wild ossidon on other maps than LC ?
No after the crash serv rollback and reaper change in mana I don’t use glitch
I‘ve seen them before on ragnarok? :/
does it have the same stats and everything as the Reaper or is it just some random mana?
because back then lc was not out yet they just a temporary spawn
because it was released before Lost Colony was out
Wildcard specifically said that it's temporary spawn too
Ahh so it was just as a teaser for ppl to buy the dlc no?
that once Lost Colony is released, they'll be locked to it
basically, yeah, just like Veilwyn
Aight!! I‘ve been trying so hard the past weeks to get a pair…. Been running through servers like crazy lmao
Has anyone figured out a way to place the large cellar doors on a raft? I assume its an ini change like maxgatesonsaddle but I can't find it anywhere!
the thing is, people are hunting them down on officials because the Alpha Ossidon is so rare
high level ones also give decent xp
they're basically the Wyverns of this map
Aww :( I just wanna breed lol
find a temporary server, those tend to be empty
In my inventory mana 190 and my reaper now it’s 2 mana same stats . My tribmate in inventory 1 snowowl and reaper now 2 snowowl same stats it’s copy
ya got Ark'd in the weirdest way
On serv lost colony the player have same problem
Yee but I can’t transfer my stuff there so I can’t tame it lol
how good would asa look like on an rtx 2070?
Well, I'm glad to see the 50/50 bug is still around in ASA. There's just a random floating pair of underwear right by my base up in the sky. Classic Ark.
Forget about looks, itll at least be somewhat playable
My 3060 struggles
Guys will a, 1060 - 6GB explode on Ark Ascended
get it on steam, try for 2h, if u like it, keep it, if not, refund it
Been playing evolved w my girl, gonna see if her PC can run ascended, we’ll see 🫡
The gacha facility and breeding facility are a bit far apart.
I don't want to put them into hibernation. Is there a good mod for this?
whoever smelt it dealt it?
Question. I know MAe's only spawn on Astreaos. Can I still use them if someone was to give me one later?
.
Fantastic. Thank you. Also, weird question. Why do dung beetles have enable mating?
cause
Valid
I was rearranging some stuff in my LC base. Threw them out, went to set to wander, and was like, wut?
anyoen have a good fuzzy raptor saddle bp in a public craft i could maybe use?
I don't know how I did it, but I just somehow teleported from one end of the map to my base (~4km travel), on official, using a deinonychus after primary attack while clinging onto a tree.
I beg several pardons but how does that make sense
