[long flicker]

you said other 4 times

[wispy frigate]

Don’t mind me making bad jokes

[long flicker]

your own dinso also count

[thin magnet]

mine just pteranodon

sus

[long flicker]

Allosaurus
Basilisk
Giganotosaurus
Karkinos
Reaper
Rex
Rock Elemental
Spino
Wyvern
Yutyrannus
this is the list

it doesn't have titano

titanos are a herbivore you know

[thin magnet]

THEN why glow red

are the dino under ground

[silent matrix]

yes

[thin magnet]

and what are those red green and blue big tower thing

[silent matrix]

me

[long flicker]

ugh out of wood again

need to quickly get this spino then get this karkinos then get this bear then get this roll rat

[wispy frigate]

Obelisks
You can do stuff in them: teleport to bosses, transport to other maps, and craft certain items

[long flicker]

and also navigate

[thin magnet]

im a noob and just got killed by a wyvern lost my auto turret with 100 ammo what a wonderful day 😉

[long flicker]

PvP isn't supposed to be for noobs

it's better to play sp or pve to get a hang of the game, then play pvp

[thin magnet]

im solo

[long flicker]

that doesn't change anything

[thin magnet]

im playing single player

[long flicker]

wat

[wispy frigate]

They tried to kill a wyvern with a turret. Wyvern killed them

[long flicker]

idk why I expected you to be on the island

and also that you made auto turrets

it's such a pvp thing

[thin magnet]

i want to tame a wyvern

[long flicker]

you don't tame wyverns

[thin magnet]

i know

i need the egg

[long flicker]

aighT
good luck getting the eggs

show me a screenshot once you get the baby

[thin magnet]

never

gonna get it

[long flicker]

don't worry, it's easier than it looks

are you on ragnarok or scorched

[wispy frigate]

Rag, if theres wyverns

[thin magnet]

yes

[wispy frigate]

Can’t be scorched

[long flicker]

sorry, I meant scorched or rag, accidentally said the island lol

[thin magnet]

why there is lighting WYVERN in a lava pit with some stone pillar wall thing

[long flicker]

then get a griffin, tehy're great for getting wyvern eggs

[long flicker]

they aren't stone pillar wall things lol

hexagonal stones are a natural structure

[wispy frigate]

Why wouldn’t there be

[thin magnet]

oooo

[long flicker]

they're in real life too

[wispy frigate]

Ye
Super cool

[thin magnet]

idk

its pretty sus

[long flicker]

alriight gonna get a baby grown up, and it'll have full imprint, I can lure spinos into traps with it, and life will be good

[wispy frigate]

Heh

Imagine not having a respawn platform of 20 beds, then using your chara for anything needed for bait

[thin magnet]

every that i ask keep saying 'oh if you are in rag use turret

[long flicker]

doesn't matter when there's no way to my base from the spino river

[long flicker]

idk man, I've never used turrets for my wyverns

I always just use my snow owl and grab eggs and run

[wispy frigate]

Paracer platform saddle

[long flicker]

it's worked well for me at least

[thin magnet]

you need some milk

[long flicker]

taming paracers is ew

[wispy frigate]

Ew

[long flicker]

I didn't need milk with my rates

but this time I probably won't cheat like that, and probably KO a couple wyverns

[thin magnet]

no

for the baby wyvern

[long flicker]

yes, I know

I didn't need milk with my rates

[wispy frigate]

You do don’t need some milk

[long flicker]

that didn't work lol

[wispy frigate]

Hol up brain. Time to remember format lines

[long flicker]

and this time I won't use the cryopod trick for my wyverns

it wasn't that cheaty becaues the wyvern I had was pretty weak

lesgo, ravager grew up

[agile moon]

Why does it seem like the bite of the ankylosaurus does the exact same amount of damage as the tail whack?

[long flicker]

doesn't the bite do 30 while tail whack does 50

[agile moon]

wow....

Ok so not going to bother with the slower attack while being swarmed by millions of wicked diarrhea wolves.

[long flicker]

I think I've said this before, but

a lot of people think that bulbdogs are so ugly that they're cute, but I think that's wrong

I think they're so ugly that they're ugly, but their personality makes them cute

145 spino trapped, lesgo

nooo I lost a ravager

[thin magnet]

p

how i get all artifact for the gamma boss and are they easy to kill?

[long flicker]

which one

[dusty lion]

2 caped flame throwers for sale offical 1x who wants it

and tek word 130 damage

[long flicker]

I can't make a fucking spino saddle

[errant phoenix]

R.I.P for you @long flicker

[long flicker]

just need to level up once; I'll massacre some ravagers babies and hopefully that'll be enough

[thin magnet]

the gamma dragon boss

[thin magnet]

the green one

[long flicker]

let's see..
it takes both the snow caves, the hard underwater cave and the swamp cave

[thin magnet]

cave

oh no

[urban spoke]

Does anyone know the maturation length of a Shadowmane during 3x rates?

[long flicker]

https://ark.fandom.com/wiki/Shadowmane divide this by 3

[thin magnet]

what the diferent between tekgram and engram

[signal wing]

Does anyone know how to fix this? On my friends private server anything we hatch, when we get twins refuses to be born opposite genders I'm trying to make a perfect pair but they all come out male or all female is this a bug?

[idle swallow]

Just you being unlucky

[signal wing]

I've gone through so many it's hard to believe that's all it is. Damn ok back to the grind then yeesh.

[long flicker]

you get tekgrams from beating bosses, and engrams are the normal ones that yo unlock with levels

[long flicker]

are you using the incubator

[signal wing]

Oh one other thing my friends are all able to pull out their old Crystal wyverns but mine are greyed out still since it's not the server settings does that mean they are stuck in upload forever or is there a trick to save them?

[long flicker]

I think the incubator causes this bug

[signal wing]

Yep

[long flicker]

because I literally just got opposite gendered twins 2 hours ago

but it was with gestation dinos

[signal wing]

Wait it is a bug!?

[long flicker]

with incubator, yeah

at least I Think so

[signal wing]

Would make sense since I've been trying for so long with just the incubator, guess I'll set up some ACs and try it.

Thanks

[long flicker]

I like using dimes, since they're easily movable and stuff

[long flicker]

good luck

[vast lantern]

does the cryo baby wyvern work?

that glitch where u dont have to knock a wyvern for its milk

[long flicker]

now I gotta spoil 50 billion stacks of my meat for this karkinos

well, let me get the blue gems I Need for its saddle while this thing's down

[signal wing]

Out of curiosity any idea on my Crystal wyvern problem? Or is that just ark being ark?

[vast lantern]

what problem

[long flicker]

sorry, I don't play on servers so I'm not aware of how server transferring works

however I would recommend using cryopods to transfer dinos and not the uploading option, as it quite unreliable

if you're on non dedicated then only the host can safely transfer items

[signal wing]

Hmm okay that's fair, thought I'd ask. Oh becarful uploading dinos in cryopods don't know if everyone has this glitch happen but if you switch maps and try to throw them out they might reset to level 1 my friends reaper and basilik got glitched because of this.

[long flicker]

that's why I said this

the glitch you're talking about happens mainly on non dedi

[signal wing]

Ah my bad

[long flicker]

if you're not the host and you put in a cryopod then there's a good chance of it becoming level 1

[signal wing]

Okay I was just checking to see if you knew. until now I've always checked redit to troubleshoot and a lot of things are not clear there.
Thanks again good luck with your karkinos.

[long flicker]

you can ask in #bobs-with-probs , there's a bunch of helpful people there

I haven't talked much on the subreddit so idk how good it is

[carmine crow]

yo

[thin magnet]

u see

im nob

and scared of cave

so here come the creative mode

[long flicker]

what's the fucking point

I don't mind creative mode, I use it while testing things

but using creative mode in the same map as your survival world is just cheating

why not have a different character for fucking around in creative

[thin magnet]

do you got any tips for take care of cold and hot in game

[long flicker]

wear clothes

[thin magnet]

when is night torch not

enough

[long flicker]

and ask questions in #bobs-with-probs

[thin magnet]

ok

[vast lantern]

wouldnt it be cool to have shotgun turrets

[silent matrix]

I just did the unthikable. I just boosted my xp gain

[long flicker]

mine's always been at 2x

since singleplayer doesn't have any passive xp gains when you're not playing

[silent matrix]

I am so sad right now. On the week from December 6th to 10th I am losing 2 hours of ark each day that I could be playing during that time

[long flicker]

and since it takes literally fucking billions of xp to get to max

[silent matrix]

I just put mine on 3x. This weekend tho I am gonna spend it trying to figure out the best settings that suit me the most and doesn.'t make the game feel to easy

[long flicker]

1.5 trillion xp to get to level 180

[silent matrix]

?

[long flicker]

wait trillion or billion

billion

[silent matrix]

Billion sounds more right. idk

[long flicker]

yeah billion
still a bigass number

[silent matrix]

Yeah. I am gonna try and reach that when I do my cluster but I am only gonna do my cluster when I get my new pc

[long flicker]

so in a few months?

[silent matrix]

Yeah

[long flicker]

the ab music looks so strange with the turkey trials main menu lmao

[silent matrix]

Yeah

Extinction runs so much smoother then Aberration

[long flicker]

lol I see others complaining about lag on extinction more than ab

also my spino is red so I can't tell when it's bloody which is annoying

[silent matrix]

When I was Ab I was playing on 20 to 30 fps at all time except for when I got close to the water. When I did my frames dropped to 7 but on Extinction I am running on 50

idk where I am going tho. I spawned in one of the recommended areas

[long flicker]

I don't evne pay attention to my frames

as long as it doesn't look framy, it's smooth for me

[silent matrix]

I can't wait to get my new PC. The game is gonna be so much better then what it is atm

I was just running around exploring the area and I started running from bugs and a dilo and then a max level sarco pops out from no where and I die

I regret spawning in the sunken fores that time because it just feels like Iam back on Aberration now

[long flicker]

yeah that's what sunken forest is meant to be

the desert protoark, is, well a desert
and the snow one is just like the snow zone in the island

[silent matrix]

Cool

idk why but I feel so lost starting out. It's probs because it's a new map for me so new terrain

[long flicker]

also, who would've hought that it's a good idea to tame a spino before a karkinso lmao

[silent matrix]

I did

[long flicker]

yeah it's meant to be a joke

I for some reason always went for karkinso before spinos

but having nothing that can kill things to make karkinos spawn is not fun

[silent matrix]

WTF are the mech things

[long flicker]

there's liek 50 different "mek things"

[silent matrix]

the spherical ones

[long flicker]

half of them look like geometry dash things

the spherical ones are defence units
just aggressive balls of metal

[silent matrix]

Well I spawned near 2

[long flicker]

good for metal

I've never actually started fresh on extinction so I Got no idea how it's done

[silent matrix]

I know how. Build base. Reach pteranadon saddle level. Fly away

[long flicker]

well that's just every map

[silent matrix]

APART from ab

[long flicker]

alright now I'll get the second karkinos after I get some gathering dinos

gathering metal and stone and wood by hand is painfully annoying

[silent matrix]

Are the forest wyverns like normal wyverns and that is I am able to get eggs?

[long flicker]

nope

forest wyverns are a special type that only spawns during the bossfight with forest titan

basically, you can't tame them

[silent matrix]

Unless I cheat

[long flicker]

you can ride them temporarily, for like a few minutes during the forest titan fight

[silent matrix]

ok

How much should one piece of wood weigh?

[long flicker]

0.5

[silent matrix]

Actually never mind. I was just about to say that I think something is wrong with my server settings but it is probably the ultrastacks mod because it is only weighing like 0.05

[long flicker]

stack mods reduce the weight of items

it's impossible to reduce the weight of items using server settings as far as I'm aware

[silent matrix]

oh ok. Yeah well then it'll be the stack mod that I added to the world

[long flicker]

if you don't wanna go overboard then stackmods aren't really required

you can change stack size of items using ini

[silent matrix]

What is an archaeopteryx?

[lavish viper]

When fighting bosses I should bring rexes and a yuty, anything else?

[silent matrix]

It really depends on the boss

[rose cloak]

Wooly rhinos

Maybe deinos

[silent matrix]

So I have a 145 megatherium near my base. How many slingshots do yous reckon I will need?

[long flicker]

not worth it levels of slingshot

[lavish viper]

Why wooly rhinos?

[silent matrix]

Shut up with your not worth it shit. It would be funny

[long flicker]

they aren't useful solo

but with other people whooly rhinos can do big numbers within small time

[long flicker]

it wouldn't, actually

I know because I've tried the slingshot a lot when I started out the game

[silent matrix]

Because rhinos can build up there damage the longer they charge

[long flicker]

it was, 90% of the time, not funny

*their

[silent matrix]

FFS bob. You just ruined my mood

[long flicker]

but that won't work unridden

by correcting your english?

[silent matrix]

No. By being to serious being like oh. that's a waste of time

[lavish viper]

Oh yeah I’m solo

[long flicker]

you're looking at the guy who's planning to use allos for bosses just for laughs

laughs are funnier when you can take the hit without needing 50 years to build back up

and also the guy who mutated dodos

[silent matrix]

Are enforcer hostile?

No. No they are not

[long flicker]

they're neutral

but if a scout finds you then enforcers become hostile

[long flicker]

once you get a strong enough carnivore, kill the tek things, they drop good shit

[silent matrix]

Harvest amount in sp means it increases the amount of stuff you get from something right?

[long flicker]

I think so
I never really fucked with the harvest settings

[silent matrix]

Well I am in my server settings atm and I see harvest damage which by the sounds of it means I break stuff faster but not get more

@long flicker For my PC when I get it should I go 64gb or 128gb of RAM

[long flicker]

jesus christ is that a desktop or a fucking super computer

I'm not really that good with pc stuff, I just know the basics
so it's a better idea to ask others rather than me about this

[silent matrix]

It's so I can run multiple servers on my PC for a cluster and I don't have to spend money for a second PC but I will eventually get a second

I just got free enforcer loot because a megatherium just killed one

[somber trench]

Anyone recommend some good mods for single player? Preferably less well known ones

[paper nimbus]

I play on basic settings, the only ones I change are tame speed and exp

[runic zephyr]

You're in Extinction already?

[silent matrix]

I don't wanna talk about what I did

[long flicker]

either skipped ab or cheated something in?

why's my message getting automodded ;-;

S+, DSv2 and CDL

@somber trench

[somber trench]

thanks

whats cdl tho?

[long flicker]

custom dino levels

[somber trench]

oh ok thanks

can you reccomend any like custom dino mods like ark additions which i already have installed?

[long flicker]

nah, I Don't use any myself

[silent matrix]

My first tame is a max level lystro

idk why it is but it is

[jaunty yew]

is the private game issue fixed ?

[tranquil geyser]

What issues

[jaunty yew]

the one where you can't join friend when they're on a paid DLC

even if you have it ofc

[silent matrix]

YES. I just killed a metal ball thing with my pick on extinction

@long flicker I am to good for doing that

[long flicker]

defence unit?

[silent matrix]

Yes

[long flicker]

harvest it, it gives some good shit

[silent matrix]

I did

[long flicker]

noice

[silent matrix]

The only reason why I got the kill is becayuse a turtle got it to low heaslth

[long flicker]

oh, you got lucky

[silent matrix]

Yeah

I have harvested 2 enforcers because megatheriums kill them

[long flicker]

well, once you get one good dino you'll be set

[silent matrix]

I am currently taming a 125 pteranadon

[lean topaz]

Hey! Can someone tell me if the weapon used in a video that turns Dinos into these tiny spheres that can be stored on your Inventory are a mod or not??

[obsidian mantle]

What’s good stats for a griffin?

[tranquil geyser]

It's call a cryopod or the mods that add better ones it's dino storage v2

[somber trench]

its a mod

[lean topaz]

I never reached that point, but kinda know about cryopods, but he used a paintball gun kinda ahha

Thanks fellas!

[tranquil geyser]

Oh you're talking about dino storage v2

[silent matrix]

Dino storage allows you to have cryopods at level 0 and you can make one using one crystal to get 2 balls

It's a very handy mod to have

[long flicker]

and if you don't like it then you can change it to whatever you want

for example I have my soul balls take element dust and they're the same level as cryopods

I also made the gun a bit more expensive, and both the gun and the soul terminal is lvel 88 for me

[silent matrix]

I still have mine set to 0 and the default stuff

[cursive scaffold]

[long flicker]

also I haven't seen you in a bit

I think you got a new job or smth right

[cursive scaffold]

Yeah now I can’t lurk in here during the good hours

[long flicker]

rip

[cursive scaffold]

The daytime really is just console players yelling at each other

[long flicker]

lmao then I guess I'm online during the good time

[cursive scaffold]

You are lol

[long flicker]

what do they yell about

though I've been getting in more arguments recently
so either the bad ones are changing their timings or I'm just not getting along with most people

I'm guessing it's a bit of both tbh

[cursive scaffold]

Mostly pvp stuff or they’ll ask really hard to answer questions and the mods just send them to a different channel and their questions never get answered

[long flicker]

oof that sucks

well, pvp is toxic 90% of the time
but the questions bit is sad

[long flicker]

I spent a good hour or so talking about this one dude who pissed me off yesterday lmao

[cursive scaffold]

What happened?

[vast lantern]

eyo something up with official? my tames wont upload

[long flicker]

just that I Accidentally insulted him and he just blew up at me

said this after he blocked me

Now he's blocked. Sorry to anyone who saw this. Buddy gave me shit for saying map hopping, as if extrapolating that it meant hopping from map to map was too much, he had to be insulting. Then today he chimes in AGAIN just to be insulting. So I blocked him. My apologies to anyone else here, I can't handle people who are negative just to be negative.

[cursive scaffold]

Extrapolating huh

[long flicker]

oh a while before that he'd asked something related to map hopping which just left me confused

and apparently in his eyes confusion = insult

this is the message

[long flicker]

and the number of trolls has increased for whatever reason

[vast lantern]

would love to know why icant upload my dinos

[long flicker]

there's a hidden 12 hour timer after uploading

uploading dinos without cryopods is risky anyway

[vast lantern]

noted

[silent matrix]

any admin? i need help

[unique sapphire]

official?

[static talon]

i’m on ps4 and for the first time i have the login lock and it says to wait some minutes, any solutions?

[thorny granite]

I have a question/clarification on breeding/mutations. Not sure if I have just confused myself or I did something wrong lol.

But it seems like I might have gotten a mutation or two, but it's not showing in the mutations list in ancestors. So maybe it's not actually a mutation?

The baby has a stat that matches one or either of the parents but two of the stats are higher than either parent.

Baby came out level 215; parents were 217 and 209.

(unrelated but I think a breeding channel would be handy too lol)

Still a bit new to this mutations thing but wanted to get process sorted before I need to breed 'more important' dinos ha.

[lean topaz]

Thank you everyone who clarified it is a mod(Dino Storage V2)!

[long flicker]

higher level doesn't necessarily mean mutation

let's say the mother has 12 melee and 10 health, and father has 12 health and 10 melee
if the baby gets the higher of both stats then its own level will be 25, which is higher than both the parents (23)

[long flicker]

therefore, the baby can be higher level without actually having a mutation

[long flicker]

for easily finding mutations, get parents with exactly the same stats and the same levles (sometimes they have same stats but different levels, if this happens then the stat that is different is movement speed which has levels pumped into it without actualy changing the value of it)

[thorny granite]

Okay. I just found it odd because the male had 440 melee, the female 503. But the baby had 504 melee. (Not too much of a hike).

[long flicker]

this is because tamed dinos' melee depends a little on their taming effectiveness on being tamed

and bred dinos always have 100% taming effectiveness

however wild tamed dinos often have like 99% or so effectiveness which can result in a very slight drop in their melee

[thorny granite]

ahh yes I forgot about that.

[long flicker]

this is still a very good method for finding mutations

[thorny granite]

well I'm still sort of on the first step where I was trying to get a baby with the parents' best stats lol.

and I saw the slightly higher melee (and food ofc) and wondered if I should keep it lol

[long flicker]

ah I see lol

well, good luck in getting hte perfect pair

it is, an absolute pain to get without mods

[thorny granite]

the baby does have the father's health and the mother's melee (assuming the 504=503)

[long flicker]

yes

you'll see the increase be around 10-11% with a melee mutation

[thorny granite]

Okay. Makes sense.

[long flicker]

depends on the dino of course, some are exceptions

[thorny granite]

yeah.

I'm just practicing with my high level dilos lol

[long flicker]

good idea

I've never actually mutated for stats before, never gotten to the point where I had satisfactory stats to start with

but I've mutated for colour, so I know the basics for how to start mutating

[thorny granite]

I got a random color mut awhile back with my lower dilos (was trying to sort out my imprinting, etc. numbers) lol

[long flicker]

and I do know how to mutate for stats
I've just never odne it myself

[thorny granite]

me either.

[long flicker]

I actually did mutate dilos for colours lol

got a nice red + blue combo in the end
I think I posted it in #fanart-and-screenshots actually

[thorny granite]

But I found the 145 dilo, and already had the 140 from earlier, so thought what the heck.

[long flicker]

yeah, good enough to practice on

[thorny granite]

ahh. mine has cyan hairs lol

[long flicker]

also mutated otters, and dodos

[thorny granite]

cool

I do have a high level dodo too haha

[long flicker]

the otter got a teal and red combo and dodo was mainly purple I think

[long flicker]

since i was only mutating for colours, I didn't even bother getting high levels lol

just got a couple, got 2 with same stats and started breeding

with dodos, at least

[thorny granite]

I already had plenty of dodos for eggs and stuff but I came across a 145 (I think) and was like. yeah

[long flicker]

with otters I did try getting good ones

I'd love to mutate karkinos but I don't want to use mods to make them breedable

[thorny granite]

and he has a cool lavender color

[long flicker]

karkinos have such good colours sometimes

and mutating for weight would be damn good

[thorny granite]

yeah. (I don't have Ab stalled or played there yet, but I've watched plenty of vids lol)

[long flicker]

ab is a nice map

[harsh storm]

pegos with melee, or itchys with health on wander and aggressive

[long flicker]

they're all nice maps tbh
go play on all of them

[thorny granite]

I want to finish the island first lol

[long flicker]

we all start off thinking that lol

[thorny granite]

ha.

[long flicker]

some of us succeed, others give up and start playing on other maps

I was the latter

[thorny granite]

maybe when I get a better PC I'll feel better about installing the other DLC

[long flicker]

I still like the island, my main base was there last save

this save I'm basing on aberration

I had to enable foreign dino transfer so I could actually store my tames on my base

it'd be pretty lame if I couldn't even breed and store my important tames on my main base

[thorny granite]

yeah

[long flicker]

but of course I won't abuse it

ab is best played the way it was intended, without any fliers or foreign dinos

[harsh storm]

gen1 not having flyers is so dumb

[long flicker]

it adds a nice challenge, but it didn't make much sense

[harsh storm]

like bruh, they give a x-argy

[long flicker]

like bruh there's like 50 billion good looking fliers on there

[harsh storm]

that we can't use

[long flicker]

and X tapejara

I still think the ptera should've gotten a variant

[harsh storm]

100%

[thorny granite]

that would have been sweet

[long flicker]

they have no tamable variants which is sad

luckily even the basic one has some good looking patterns

[thorny granite]

yeah.

mine looks like a watermelon kind of lol

[long flicker]

speaking of patterns, I started taming carnos on ab but figured I'd tame R carnos anyway

[lusty mauve]

can anyone help me with an issue I'm having? my game crashes every time I try to load into my world.

[long flicker]

so I stopped looking for carnos on ab

[long flicker]

ask in #bobs-with-probs

[lusty mauve]

aight

[long flicker]

ab carnos do look nice but R's look better

[harsh storm]

r-gigas are dope af

[long flicker]

yeah man I want to get all the R gigas I Can find

they're easy to trap but so time consuming to tame

they look sooo good tho

[thin wedge]

The Alpha Fire Wyvern is insane!

[long flicker]

having a nice well mutated R giga would be so nice

[long flicker]

I've never actually fought one lol
just picked up the egg I wanted and ran away

[wispy frigate]

Better than other maps tho

Tek bow makes it very good, if you have it

[long flicker]

still time consuming

especially getting the bow itself

[wispy frigate]

True

[harsh storm]

all giga's are time consuming

[long flicker]

yeah, I meant gigas in general

[harsh storm]

60% of the time taming is spent force feeding it narco's

[long flicker]

but R gigas actually look good

I can't actually slomo while taming them because they glitch out and start losing torpor even after feeding berries

[thorny granite]

glad I'm not up to that point yet lol

[long flicker]

oh slomo?

[thorny granite]

no, gigas lol

[long flicker]

oh lol

[jolly osprey]

Anyone have any good unofficial servers that don’t lag crazy hard to recommend?

[long flicker]

nah they're worth the effort

you won't get something doing 3k damage as easily as gigas lol

[jolly osprey]

I lag painfully on official but they are the only servers with higher pop

[harsh storm]

normally servers with lower mods, and semi-decent pop, 10ish players during hightime is what I look for.

[jolly osprey]

Alright I’ll look for that, map recommendation? I’m a veteran on mobile but pc is so different lmao

[long flicker]

PC is pretty much a different game

[harsh storm]

eh, depends, looking for a rp map? basebuilding map?

[long flicker]

All the maps are pretty goos

They're all pretty and have good dinos

[thorny granite]

if you want the same map as the mobile, the Island

[long flicker]

Now, where's the fun in that

[thorny granite]

if something different, don't go with the Island lol

[long flicker]

Though they're still hard as fuck to find and mutate

Really high incubation time, really hard to raise

[jolly osprey]

I noticed the island is crazy overpopulated with dinos compared to mobile and I can’t seem to survive on pc LOL

[long flicker]

But worth the damage output I'd say

[thorny granite]

yeah I did a lot of dying in the beginning. most do lol

[long flicker]

You learn how to survive with time

[thorny granite]

course I died a lot on mobile too... but I forgot half the controls lolz

[long flicker]

And still you'll die lol
I died to bugs

[jolly osprey]

The bugs omg

[long flicker]

Bugs are damn strong, don't underestimate them

[thorny granite]

I wish there was an achievement for being killed by each species... I would have a good leg up on that HA

[jolly osprey]

They are way less scary on mobile

[harsh storm]

wildcard. make. this. happen.

[long flicker]

Trying to get killed by moschops would be interesting

But moschops is still possible

[harsh storm]

rare flower

[thorny granite]

haha

[long flicker]

Nope

[harsh storm]

whaa?

[long flicker]

Moschops run when they're aggrod

[harsh storm]

oh

[jolly osprey]

How then?

[long flicker]

You put them on aggressive and they'll constantly run from everything

[harsh storm]

maybe punching the moschops and dying from punching it?

[long flicker]

Lol nah

They still attack corpses
And you're collateral

[harsh storm]

or 1v1ing a moschops in a pvp server

[long flicker]

So put a corpse in front of you when you're half dead

Bam death by moschops

[harsh storm]

pog

[long flicker]

But things like diplos are actually impossible

[thorny granite]

I had my four moschops on wander to gather resources... then I did a dino wipe because it had been a good while since the last, and I lost three of them to wild dilos. lol my last one is safe in my base now

[livid coyote]

I've had a Moschops attack me once

[long flicker]

Some things literally can't attack

[long flicker]

It probably attacked a corpse near you

It's happened to me before

[livid coyote]

Nope I was using primal fear

I think it was an elder moschops?

[long flicker]

Oh lol
Well that's obviously different, because modded

[long flicker]

And this is why you don't make defenseless tames be free roam

[thorny granite]

they were fine for a long time before the wipe lol

[long flicker]

Because the spawns were static

[thorny granite]

I'm on the beach

[long flicker]

Speaking of wipes,

A spino is so damn handy for getting a karkinos

It makes luring them and killing the things around them a piece of cake

And I also constantly kill everything in this river to get karkinos and spinos to spawn

[thorny granite]

yeah I've been killing pteras and paras, hoping for a higher level lol

[long flicker]

the island level distribution just sucks

it's so hard to find a high level

[thorny granite]

yeah

got lucky with the dilos though lol

[long flicker]

I'd suggest getting a mod if you can to get better level distribution

it'd save you a lot of time

[thorny granite]

and there is a 140 sarco nearby-ish that I might go for, just need more kibble. came in when I did a wipe for the Thanksgiving event

[long flicker]

ugh speaking of sarcos,

I had to sacrifice 2 high levels because they were ruining my karkinos tame

I really wanted those too

[long flicker]

in fact one was even a 150

I'll have to try more though, now that I have a karkinos I can just pick 'em up and up and away with them to tame them wherever I want

[tropic shale]

I wonder when primal survival will come out

[lyric inlet]

do chibi level boosts stack

[willow terrace]

Hey is anyone else’s game not working on console like when you go to join a server and no servers pop up?

[lyric inlet]

for example if I got 1 chibi to level 3 and then got a different one to level 3 would I get 2 levels

or just one?

[narrow mortar]

If you got a chibi to lvl 3 and another to lvl 2, it would not stack

You can only get 6 or 7 lvls from chibis

[lyric inlet]

what If i got 2 chibis to level 3 would I get 2 levels?

[narrow mortar]

No

[spring cargo]

The levels are assigned individually to chibis

[narrow mortar]

Exactly, so if your character got a chibi to lvl 6 thats it

You cant get anymore chibi lvls in your implant

[lyric inlet]

oh

so If I started getting lvls on a chibi like i got a chibi to level 3 and then I got another one to level 3 I wouldnt get the buff that gives the survivor another level

[narrow mortar]

No, chibis lvl up the same as survivors, just with alpha kills

[solar saddle]

Is there any way in the files that can change how the level weighing works?
For instance how the non-story maps like rag and center tend to spawn higher level Dinos but maps like island and scorched tend to spawn lower level Dinos
Is there any way to make the island spawn Dinos at a higher level more often?

[lyric inlet]

but dont they give your survivor extra levels if they get to lvl 3?

[spring cargo]

I believe you can get higher level dinos by increasing the difficulty

[solar saddle]

That’s not what I’m saying
I know you can get higher level Dinos but on non-story maps the higher level Dinos spawn a lot more often then those on story maps

[spring cargo]

Ah i see, i don’t know how to increase the spawn rate of higher level dinos

[narrow mortar]

Yes? Can you ask me the question again

[spring cargo]

I think the setting “max level dinosaurs” or whatever it’s called increases the level cap so that might give you more higher level dinos but don’t know anything else that would help

[narrow mortar]

Im confused

[vital thicket]

guys

take 2 dinos of the same kind: one is bred and one is wild/tamed. both got the same level and the same exact allocation of points. is the bred dino stronger?

[slim parcel]

Does xbox have flyer speed leveling yet? last I heard was still no but a player is telling me they just added it

[lyric inlet]

If I got 2 chibis to level 3 since they give me an extra level if I get them to level three would I get 2 levels or does the buff only apply to 1 chibi?

[narrow mortar]

Uh……

Ugghghththtvok

So if you get a chibi to max lvl, you cant any more lvls from another chibi if thats what you’re asking

[snow kestrel]

Hello anyone knows why on steam it says the expansion packs are not available? only the genesis 1

[lyric inlet]

k ty

[long flicker]

You can only buy all of them together now

[cursive scaffold]

lvl 11 chibi when

[snow kestrel]

oh the season pass?

[long flicker]

Ye

[snow kestrel]

o oke tnx

[wispy frigate]

Theres cdl, which is a mod that does that. I don’t believe it can be done with ini

[wispy frigate]

Yes, because wild/tamed will have very slightly worse stats due to te. Not enough to make any difference, but statistically it is better
Also if the bred has imprint then its a lot stronger

[solar saddle]

What’s the name of this mod?

[wispy frigate]

Cdl. Custom dino levels

[solar saddle]

Okay thanks

[ruby ferry]

Imprint bonus is up to 30% more damage and resistance so imprint is the best thing about a bred Dino.

[wispy frigate]

Its the only thing about a bred dino lol

And yes, thats what I just said

[ruby ferry]

He didn’t ask about an imprint bonus tho. Just asked if one was better than the other. Answer is no for the question posed.

Same stat allocation. Same level. Same Dino. One just says it was raised.

[wispy frigate]

Ye, I answered

Did you not see the if?

[ruby ferry]

I don’t Engrish.

[wispy frigate]

Assuming that means english, obviously not lol

[ruby ferry]

Is it?

[wispy frigate]

Is what

[lavish viper]

I was taming a 145 Rex with 118 tranq arrows, my crossbow broke so I crafted a normal bow and he started running, I had 10 tranqs and he didn’t get knocked out and I started hitting him with a wooden club and it worked

[wispy frigate]

Magic

Reminds me of when I ran out of arrows so I had to club a therizino

[vital thicket]

te?

[wispy frigate]

Taming effectiveness

[vital thicket]

discounting the imprint buff and only taking in the te difference is it a lot?

[lavish viper]

i was desperate

[wispy frigate]

Hardly anything

[vital thicket]

Wow thanks

[gritty hearth]

No it’s a lot

[wispy frigate]

About 0.1 less on the health, and at the most like 50% less on the melee

And depending on the creature, 15% less food

This is if you have 0 taming effectiveness

[vital thicket]

So theoretically speaking, if u find a wild dino with the stats allocation of a bred one, which is impossible lol, it will be as strong as the bred

[pale schooner]

waaaw

[wispy frigate]

If you’re using kibble the only difference you see will be maybe 1% on the melee

[vital thicket]

Wait 50% is a lot ??

[pale schooner]

very dengerus

[wispy frigate]

Depends on the lvl of the dino ofc

[pale schooner]

anyone wanna play modded ark together with pugnacia primal fear annunaki or other overhaul mods

and awesome spyglass and other essential mods

[wispy frigate]

Ah, thats what you mean. Not really
Any tamed/bred creature gets a buff that’s roughly 1.2x that melee
Other stats will be mostly the same

[vital thicket]

this the answer i been looking for ty

[wispy frigate]

Ofc for dinos like egg steal creatures, gigas and a few others, the bred/tamed ones get nerfs instead

[silent matrix]

Yo

[stray rune]

Pull up 16 carno ps4 smalls

[silent matrix]

😂

[lyric inlet]

How do you make it so that ceilings dont break when you pickup the walls

[lavish viper]

Any tips to explore the cave in oluf jungle on rag

the one with the lava parkour near a waterfall

[elfin turret]

why can't I join my friends dedicated server

like ive played on it before but I can't go back on without him having to send an invite

[narrow mortar]

S+

[elfin turret]

wdym

[narrow mortar]

Its called mods

[elfin turret]

bruh

[scarlet totem]

@lavish viper Use grapples or tek suit

[elfin turret]

oh whoops wrong person lmao

[scarlet totem]

And bring a velo or a looot of rockets for the final boss (and a pickaxe!)

[lavish viper]

The boss?

[scarlet totem]

You mean the jungle cave near viking bay on rag? Or which one do you mean

[silent matrix]

anyone know a good fibercraft ?

[lavish viper]

https://ark.fandom.com/wiki/Oluf_Jungle_Cave_(Ragnarok) this one i think

if you go further in you'll find parkour that leads to a red supply drop and maybe other things (i failed)

And if you fail theres lava that you fall into and die

[scarlet totem]

The oluf cave is just a small C shaped tunnel

https://ark.fandom.com/wiki/Jungle_Dungeon_(Ragnarok)

That is the one youre talking about

[lavish viper]

Oh yeah that is

[scarlet totem]

So yeah you do the parkour, and if you fall youre dead. This is why I use grapples

But you could also use a tek chestpiece to bypass the jumps

After the big room up high theres a tunnel to another room which has crystals blocking a small crouch tunnel. Behind there is a golem boss you can beat for a lot of (good) blueprints/loot

Recommended tactic for that boss is to bring a velonasaur in a cryopod or a lot of rockets (and grapples)

Its hard, and a big investment of stuff to bring but the loot is 100% worth it

[lavish viper]

I'll try to fight the boss later on, should i fight the lava elemental first or the bosses from the obelisks

[scarlet totem]

Its the cave to get capped saddle blueprints n whatnot

This is a minor boss so its easier than the obelisk boss

There is also a ice worm queen in the ice cave on ragnarok

[lavish viper]

are those the only minor bosses?

[scarlet totem]

Ye

Well there's a broodmother on valguero

[lavish viper]

i'm surprised there's not one in the desert

[lavish viper]

Isn't that a the island boss

[scarlet totem]

Ye but they let a nerfed version spawn on valguero in the spider cave

The desert on rag has another cool cave

Puzzle cave you do mainly on foot then at the end fight some ghost/spectral wolves n bears

[lavish viper]

Can i bring tames into that cave without cyropods?

[silent matrix]

anyone know a good fibercraft ?

[scarlet totem]

No

[olive perch]

What tame do you want to bring in?

[scarlet totem]

Well actually you can n might have to bring in a shoulder pet to sacrifice depending on the route you take 😋

[lavish viper]

I'll bring in anything i can

[lavish viper]

Sad

[olive perch]

Bring a baryonix

[scarlet totem]

Wont go into rags desert cave

Its a crouch entrance

[lavish viper]

i hate those

Same thing in this one so i had to leave everything

[vital thicket]

Hey guys how do these people in my beginner server have saddles over level 44

like this guy is just casually strollin off on a thyla

cheat?

[scarlet totem]

Good armor, good shotgun, maybe a riot shield, and med brews will generally get you through. Or bring cryopodded tames @lavish viper

@vital thicket you could find them in drops precrafted or a blueprint

[vital thicket]

i dont think lvl 44 drop have thyla

[lavish viper]

I would use cryopods but idk where to make the fridge at

[scarlet totem]

@lavish viper the fridge needs a replicator, but the cryopods when crafted are fully charged at 30 days and can be kept in a normal fridge for extended time too. They jusy dont charge unless theyre in a cryofridge

So worst comes to worst you switch them out for new ones after 29 days

(or 59 in a fridge)

[lavish viper]

Oh that's not that bad

[scarlet totem]

Are you not able to craft the cryofridges in drops too?

[lavish viper]

uh idk*

[scarlet totem]

They can be looted from genesis 2 drops aswell

[tulip bone]

Hey guys , cought a lvl 145 dire bear in a trap

is it safe to just shoot him with tranq darts?

or do you think he will die before I manage to knock him out

[solid lily]

use a magnifying glass, or hlna if on gen and monitor the torpor, or do body shots but it should live either way

[wispy frigate]

Darts are good, bears have a bad torpor:health ratio but its fine with darts

[tulip bone]

so basicly don't aim for the head

and hope for the best

is it better to use my 100% longneck or 171% crossbow?

for the taming

[olive perch]

No

[hexed tree]

It depends on what

[olive perch]

Crossbow tranqs better

[hexed tree]

I'd say crossbow on things with decent hp:torpor

[olive perch]

But it also damages more

[tulip bone]

to tame a bear

[hexed tree]

But if you're on things like gallimimus and bears

[hexed tree]

Longneck, bears have low hp and high torpor

[tulip bone]

yea but idk if 45 darts will be enough

[olive perch]

Then longneck

[hexed tree]

Check the wikipedia

[tulip bone]

that's all I got for now , I thought maybe I shoot with darts and my friend uses this crossbow at same time

[olive perch]

Bears die from crossbow

[hexed tree]

And then do something a little higher

Yeah they have a trash HP to torpor ratio

[scarlet totem]

@tulip bone crossbow will kill a bear with 60% chance or so. A longneck will not

[tulip bone]

oh ok

[scarlet totem]

You could probably do mainly darts and finish it with crossbow easily

I used 14 on a 130 with a 280 longneck yesterday

[olive perch]

Yes

[scarlet totem]

So it should be 40-45 tops with a primitive

[tulip bone]

hm...

I suppose I'll try :/

would really suck if I don't manage to get him

[crude wind]

is the fjordur map already out or still just a mod rn?

[silent matrix]

Won't be out until next year or so

[crude wind]

[uneven fable]

Any have or know where I can find a picture of the colour regions on an R-reaper

[hoary crescent]

Are the ratholes patched om gen 2

?

[silent matrix]

how can i beat gen 2 boss if when i do survive the ark mission the serv crash every time

[tulip bone]

is it a problem that a bear can't jump in caves?

[scarlet totem]

@silent matrix got to wait for that mission to be fixed 🤷

@tulip bone some caves it will be some it wont.. some definitely have jumps in then though

[analog olive]

What do I do with unfertilized eggs?

[scarlet totem]

Make kibble out of them, or just eat them

[fair sky]

Use them for kibble

[analog olive]

What do I need for that

[fair sky]

You can make different types of kibble depending on the eggs you have. I can check ARK Wiki for the recipes.

[analog olive]

Should I be afraid of a titanasour?

There’s a big one in front of me

[analog olive]

I have a question but i need to send you a photo

For the lightpets is it supposed to say (enabled) or (disabled) for the player detecting or

[slate tendon]

Guys is ark easy to start into ?

And how much does cost in total

[gilded sky]

60 not on sale and ask a friend that has played to help

[silent matrix]

So my friends created an ark server and they play in PS and I play on Xbox could I join the server

anyone who plays steam and wanna join me?

Will anyone answer my question

[solar saddle]

I’m pretty sure it’s not crossplay so no

[silent matrix]

Noooooo

Do u think eb games would let me trade in my PS3 for a PS4

With all of the games

Sou guys think they would or would not

Anyone want to play ps4? Add my PSN: BADEN369_DBAA I'm a returning player trying to remember how to play. I know most stuff

[wanton linden]

Anyone that wants to play pc and xbox since its crossplay

[north latch]

I'd recommend not to play small tribes on it, unofficial for that have fun

[wanton linden]

Oh i shouldve mentioned unofficial sorry

[north latch]

Yeah it's all good, have fun

[wanton linden]

U 2 bro

[silent matrix]

What is the name of the server

Could I join

[swift star]

So I have a friend who claims in single player on standard settings that she can breed and raise a crystal wyvern in 90 minutes without primal crystal. Sounds like BS to me?? Is she right or has she altered the settings

[wanton linden]

That sounds mad

[urban spoke]

If I cryod' a shadowmane while it's gestating would it only pause the progress or reset it?

[wanton linden]

I think its possible

[swift star]

Without a daedron?

[wanton linden]

Oh

Breed

[tough yarrow]

@past moss use #735196267373920286 for lfg

[past moss]

oh my bad

[swift star]

Yeah she’s bred and raised a crystal wyvern in 90 mins without primal crystal

[wanton linden]

No way nvm its like 3d for lvl 150

[swift star]

Sounds like nonsense to me when it takes me 93 hours and a ton of milk to raise a real wyvern lol

[wanton linden]

Thats why i play boosted

[barren grove]

Boosted slightly is fun but fiber isn't

[wanton linden]

Fiber is dead

Fiber craft is all taming and nothing else get boring

[barren grove]

Official very fun

[tough yarrow]

@warped veldt #735196255483068497 for lfg

Oh aight

[topaz mango]

hmm 2 crashes in 2 days since I have been back, both relating to a file in gen2dlc, i hope its not my card, i cant afford one atm, i hope its the engine/drivers 😛

[silent matrix]

What should I need to prepare for the titans?

[outer widget]

a handful of gigas with good saddles for the two ground ones, and a flock of argies or lightning wyverns for desert titan is enough usually

[tulip bone]

I got myself first dire bear!! ;D

[silent matrix]

Can I use snow ols instead of argies?

[tulip bone]

my those guys are quick!

[silent matrix]

Which of the 3 titans would be the easiest to go for first

[barren grove]

U can cheese forest with shadowmane

[silent matrix]

Not an option. I can only use things from Extinction

[silent matrix]

Can snow owls replace the argies?

[outer widget]

snow owls dont really have comparable dps to argies because their attack animation is way longer, you'll need to breed for muts for a while if you are gunna go with an argie army for desert, but it is the easiest especially if you have some good guns. the main point of using a group of tames for the desert titan is to lessen the chance you get targeted with lightning or flock so you can focus on shooting with high dps guns

[silent matrix]

So high dps being something like an assault rifle

[outer widget]

I like pump shotty or high quality tek rifle

[silent matrix]

I could probably find a pump somewhere

[fair walrus]

gotta love dieing when you cant log server

[quaint iris]

Does anyone else have the problem that you can't find any servers?
On xbox

[severe raft]

Is it cross platform on ps?

[quaint iris]

I cant play unofficial but official i can find

idk why

[tough yarrow]

Playstation has no crossplay. Only within Playstation network.

[errant falcon]

anyone pve official can run island bosses

[lyric inlet]

best wood gatherer?

[errant falcon]

mommth

mammoth

use space bar to harvest if pc lol

[fierce ruin]

theri's are good aswell but they have no weight reduction unlike the mammoth which is a good choice for wood/berry gathering

[wispy frigate]

Mammoth is good for aoe and weight reduction
Roll rat is good for moving around and weight reduction (but probably worst out of all 4)
Beaver is good for not gathering berries and weight reduction
Theri probably gets the most per tree but doesn’t have weight reduction

Imo, mammoth

[silent matrix]

perry

[wispy frigate]

Ye

[silent matrix]

merwings are good

my eyes have been opened and maewings are actually really good i started breeding them but 4 eggs no mutation

[wispy frigate]

Lol

1/15 chance, gl

[silent matrix]

thx also is the black dot on their forehead mutatable

[queen mural]

When do beginner servers wipe next

[hallow parrot]

Does the federation suit no longer protect against radation?

[silent matrix]

is it powered?

[hallow parrot]

no

[silent matrix]

it needs to be powered

[hallow parrot]

I used to be able to use an unpowered one tho

[silent matrix]

oh

[hallow parrot]

Can you still charge it in the radation water?

[silent matrix]

try powering the fed suit in the water yeah

I am now bored of ARK and idk what to do

did u beat everything

[wispy frigate]

Its very buggy, works for some people but not others

[silent matrix]

oh you need the engram as well

[sturdy wagon]

Need some one to run me thorught cen alpha boss or brood

[silent matrix]

no you dont.

maybe u do idk

[sturdy wagon]

I do need all engrams on my smalls character before lost island comes out

[silent matrix]

no

beat everything

I don't wanna force myself to play something if I am bored

what do u have left

[long flicker]

just take a month long break, simple

[silent matrix]

u playing the game in order?

dont play the game in order, its boring as shit

[long flicker]

ye they are

eh, it has its own fun to it

[silent matrix]

I have extinction, and gen 1 and 2 left. I am kinda tempted to kinda cheat those bosses but just have a little fun doing it

[long flicker]

they're only doing gamma anyway

[long flicker]

in my opinion it's a way better idea to just leave them, start a cluster and return to them later

[silent matrix]

things i do when bored are just not do things in order, go to different maps, and finally make a new character when i finally actually get bored and have nothing left for me

[long flicker]

it's not nearly as fun when you cheat through it

I've cheated through the overseer before

[silent matrix]

bull tbh i would go on an official server

[long flicker]

official is poo poo

[silent matrix]

I will in a few months

[long flicker]

then take a break for a little while

[silent matrix]

Why?

i switched from sp to official and ive had so much fun in the past 2 months

[long flicker]

my breaks can last from 1 week to many months

servers can be better than sp, yeah

[silent matrix]

I have been playing on my own unofficial server that I have been playing

[barren grove]

I did the same

[long flicker]

but official servers are shit

[long flicker]

it's still technically sp, since it's only you

[barren grove]

Theyre not tho

[long flicker]

going on servers with actual people can be pretty fun

[silent matrix]

It's not only me tho. There are others who join

[long flicker]

how often?

[silent matrix]

idk

daily

[long flicker]

I see

[silent matrix]

played sp for like 8 months, was fun for a bit but restarted after a while because bored, this kept happening but i switched to official pve and the game was fun again, playing with others and making alliances with other tribes was great to me and felt like a great experience compared to playing the game with little to no communications with others

[outer widget]

I swap from sp to a low rates vanilla server and have been having a good time on there, but I still mix in a few sp story playthoughs when I get a little tired of the day to day

[long flicker]

this doesn't need to be official only

you can have the same fun on unofficial clusters

[silent matrix]

I would start a sp cluster right now but everytime I switch maps my game crashes and I don't wanna restart everytime I wanna go to different map

[long flicker]

what I Don't like about official is how bad some of their aspects are

[silent matrix]

official has a more active playerbase and if u dont like the people in one server switch to another

[long flicker]

mainly preventing cheaters and giving people their shit back when shit goes wrong

also mods

mods make the game a good bit better

[silent matrix]

not gonna get cheaters on official pve usually unless the cheater is dum as shit

[long flicker]

also what was it with the start of turkey trials? I think they disabled transfers for like 2 days?

[silent matrix]

they disabled transfers for 3 hours

[long flicker]

that's more relieving

[silent matrix]

unofficials were down for 8

official isnt the only thing that gets fucked

[long flicker]

never said that it was

but unofficials deal with fuck ups better

[silent matrix]

no

[long flicker]

obviously depends on the unofficial itself

[long flicker]

you can't just say "no" like that

[silent matrix]

unofficials dont universally deal with fuckups, its up to the owners

[long flicker]

I see people on official compalining about losing their shit and not getting them back all the time
on unofficial it's one talk to the admin and one click

[long flicker]

did you read what I just said or did you lose the ability to read

[long flicker]

at the very least, on pc

[silent matrix]

yes

[long flicker]

lol

[silent matrix]

oh didnt see this mb

[long flicker]

this one

[silent matrix]

yeah my bad didnt see that

[long flicker]

but good unofficials will have good management in those cases

[silent matrix]

most good unofficials have good management, but a lot of them are less active

[long flicker]

that's true

but it's great if you find yourself a good one with an active playerbase

[silent matrix]

and if you change ur mind u cant just switch server and have all ur items on that other server, but yeah unofficials are usually better management

[long flicker]

one that doesn't just fuck off every 2 months

[silent matrix]

What's the difference between unoffical and official to make unofficial less active?

there isnt one

[long flicker]

al the officials are connected

[silent matrix]

unofficial just has less players

[long flicker]

so it's like one giant cluster from what I know

[silent matrix]

yes

[long flicker]

but each unofficial is different

so if you leave an official server, you're still on official and still have your shit

[silent matrix]

all official pves are connected while unofficial is sometimes connected to different maps

[long flicker]

on unofficial you just straight up have to leave taht server

[silent matrix]

Then if there isn't a difference between unofficial and official why is there unofficial and official? Can't there be just one

[outer widget]

there are also just a crap ton of unofficial clusters and servers, so they unofficial playerbase is spread out a lot more

[long flicker]

there can't

[silent matrix]

unofficial has easier rates

[long flicker]

because I'm telling the different right now

[long flicker]

also unofficials have custom rates, can have mods, custom spawns, etc.

basically unofficials are private servers while officials are ark official servers

[silent matrix]

official has a shit load of good stat rexes tho i mean u should see

[long flicker]

I find it more fun to make the rexes myself

[silent matrix]

its insane bruh they got mutants available for 2 poly

[silent matrix]

i find it fun making things that arent boss dinos myself

boss dinos are annoying to breed bcuz getting the stats

[outer widget]

I breed ab purlovia

[long flicker]

with my rates it doesnt' take literal months, which is better

but I hear people on official are crazy
do tehy really have hundreds of females breeding with a few males?

[silent matrix]

purlovias are cool i just cant find an excuse for mutating them

[silent matrix]

yes this is true

[long flicker]

jesus

[silent matrix]

not hundreds but a lot

like 10 females 1 male

[long flicker]

well 10 females I know

but you'd then have like 5 or 6 such "pairs", right

[silent matrix]

yeah 5 eggs per day is good

[long flicker]

not what I meant

[silent matrix]

i have yet to get a female out of an egg

[worldly wagon]

hey, so im kinda new to "breeding for stat mutations". I currently have a penguin with 2 matrilineal mutations, but now whenever I breed them it becomes a patrilineal mutation. I am just wondering how I stick to matrilineal.

[outer widget]

when I was on official during ext we had 75 females on one male

[silent matrix]

for what

[long flicker]

let me explain how it works

[silent matrix]

Why are yu breeding penguins?

[outer widget]

stacking muts I guess. I was just there to farm I wasnt on the breeding team

[long flicker]

why not?

[worldly wagon]

why not ;3

[lyric rampart]

any1 know when xbox arkpoc wipes next?

[long flicker]

basically, the father has hte matrilineal mutation, so when you breed it, the baby got them mutation from the father"

if that baby is a female and you breed it with a clean male then all mutatiosn will go to matrilineal

[silent matrix]

Well true. I suppose you did say you mutated dodos at one point so I guess Human can breed penguins. It's a good source of organic polymer

[long flicker]

it's surprisingly good for org poly

pelagornis get 100 poly per baby

[silent matrix]

i just get normal poly

[outer widget]

we clone level 15 crabs for poly

[worldly wagon]

uhh, i mean the father has no mutations and is the og parent thaty had the same stats as its mother

and the one with mutations is a female

[long flicker]

look at the father's mutation counter

[worldly wagon]

k

it says 0 on both sides

here ill dm u the screenshot

[long flicker]

aight

also trying to make a trap for allos is ugh

ew net

[long flicker]

I just go to the river right next to me for poly

[terse marsh]

I dont see a modded channel so asking here. Is there a good armor mod for the game that fits with standard modifiers and dino level 150?. We tried armour+ but it basically just makes us un-killable

[plucky estuary]

lets go

just snagged a level 118 velonasaur

[silent matrix]

not bad

[plucky estuary]

velonasaurs are mad annoying to tame

[silent matrix]

depends on pve or pvp

[long flicker]

tamed?

[long flicker]

I don't really understand what you mean by that

[long flicker]

what do you want with the armour mod?

[limpid depot]

Hey, is there a way to create mods for Xbox like you can with steam?

[long flicker]

no

only steam has the ability to use and make mods

[limpid depot]

Do they plan to allow modders to make mods for consoles too?

[outer widget]

that's up to sony and microsoft

[terse marsh]

We're trying to find something that's a tiny bit better and more durable then vanilla. The armour+ one just seems to go too far towards godmode and we cant find a way to edit the armor values

[long flicker]

you don't find high quality armour to be enough?

hmm,
yeah I Don't thik there's a way to do it with vanilla ini

well, the easiest option is to just reduce dino damage towards players

[terse marsh]

I think the real issue we have is with the vanilla armors breaking everytime we stumble over a pebble

[long flicker]

I've never had my own break so quickly

only armour that I've seen which has shitty as fuck durability is chitin

[limpid depot]

Is it hard to create mods?

1-10, 10 being the hardest

[long flicker]

that depends on you, don't you think

[long flicker]

that's not very feasible

[terse marsh]

Ah well. Thanks for the replies... we'll probably just stick with the vanilla gear

[long flicker]

yeah they should add an ini to edit durability

well, for vanilla my advice is to use flak, and get hit as little as possible

flak has good protection and decent durability; especially higher quality ones can help a LOT

[limpid depot]

Somewhat. It just depends on the difficulty of what is being taught and to know.

[long flicker]

there might be something, so if you're dissatisfied with vanilla then you should keep asking around
maybe someone knows a mod

[limpid depot]

Learning to create addons & mods for Minecraft is relatively straightforward and easy.

[long flicker]

well in that case you'd probably have an easier time than me learning mods for ark

I've never made any mods, so it'd be pretty hard for me to learn

also ark dev kit is fucking 100 GB and takes 50 years to open

well I only know a few people who have modding experience, and the one who I know made the most mods blocked me a while ago

[limpid depot]

Takes me 30 mins to download 100gb

[long flicker]

50 years to open not download

and the issue isn't downloading it's storage

[forest pawn]

anyone got good pop pve servers for pc?

[limpid depot]

Oh I see.

[long flicker]

the person with a teal name named myrm
They make good mods

if you ever see them online then you can ask them

[limpid depot]

Yeah it’d prolly take me a few seconds to open lol

[long flicker]

@placid sundial how long does the ark dev kit take to open for you

[long flicker]

they made no untamables, dino fixes, lunar fixes, custom consumables, I think was the name? and a few more

[placid sundial]

Open and be useable are very different things

[long flicker]

well then
be usable

[limpid depot]

Even the king titan is tameable?

[placid sundial]

To just boot is maybe a min or 2, it's usually 10-20 before I can do anything with it

[long flicker]

nah, bosses aren't

[long flicker]

and you have like 16 GB ram do you not

[limpid depot]

No I meant for the mod?

[placid sundial]

Normal untameable creatures

[long flicker]

yes, I meant for the mod

[limpid depot]

I have 64gb lol
