anyone wanna make a tribe on small tribes??
tried giga
i have 1.2k hrs and am hella active
anyone sellings pc smalls bosses
What should I put supply drop quality on for single player
get a role first #role-assignment
Imo, leave it. Loot is fine as it is with diff 5+
The max you should go is definitely 3 tho. Even 2 is a bit much
I have loot quality 1 and it's pretty satisfactory
There should be an option to throw a bolas on a microraptor and then walk up to it and press triangle. Then an action scene happens as it shows your character stuff a grenade up its cloaca while laughing, after which it explodes into 6 hundred thousand million pieces, and then it shows demons dragging its soul to hell.
Yes it is great getting medium crop blueprints in a red drop with a ring.
It is
Gotta defeat the overseer somehow
Without medium crop plot bps, youd just fail. Always.
It is so annoying getting stuff that I won use often
Pray to rnjesus
Managarmr or rock drake 🤔
for what?
to see which is better
they are pretty different though
drake
why drake
it is cute
true
it is fast, can climb, good swimmer, mounted weapons, tanky, apex status, lays eggs so it's easier to breed, and is from my favorite map
whats ur favorite map
ab
oh dope
rock drake?
I mean till a little while ago it wasn't even breedable
personally I prefer manas, because speedier, and their breath is damn nice
but then again, I prefer maewing over both lol
manas are good too. I've been breeding my manas for like a year and a half and I love them, but between drake and mana I'd choose drake. being able to shoot from the saddle more than makes up the dps difference, and they are great for going out taming with
maewings are damn easy to tame while being great for transport
I've tamed manas, but never in their natural habitat
so idrk how easy they are to tame
with nets they are super easy to tame now
I don't use nets
or if you are on a drake the mana will try to dash you but get stuck on the drake hitbox and trap itself
nor do I like using creatures as makeshift traps
it never ends well for me with taming like that
I might make a fully mutated army of theris for the island bosses because why the hell not
But first I need to find another theri to tame
How meny days until the lost island comes out
like 16? but who knows maybe 34
K thanks
anyone else getting cloudflare auth issue today?
I just got a 224 argentavis with 42 health and 40 melee
That is pretty good for 150 wild tames
nah, it's pretty average for a flyer
this game still alive?
wdym
what updates have i misses in a year? i assume not many
the entire year? a big TLC, release of gen 2, and all the events that happen every year
actually 2 TLC's, if you weren't present during the stego one
ahh, need to go check them out, thanks
My ark Server want down my character is in water and I was going to. My base the ark server want down

One of the most dumbest things about the S+ mod is that you can't make normal stairs as S+
You can only craft ramps, and they can be changed into stairs, I guess that's why
i personally prefer offi building to S+
Likewise
pretty sure normal stairs were added after S+
feels a lot more raw
A thing I really despise about S+ is how it messes up Tek
wdym?
Use a ramp, then convert it into a stair, ez
I don't like vanilla building but i also like vanilla building
It removes all the cool effects of say the transmitter and generator
Makes teleporters a buggy, singular button on the floor, not that cool pad
and I'm yet to use S+
Cloning Chambers turned to teleporters for some reason
I'm satisfied with vanilla building for the most part, and don't need most of the S+ automation
so ye
I don't like any building. It's a nightmare to build cool things in ark
don't think I want to download S+ any time soon
Haven't played ARK in a good while
I've lost motivation to play pretty much anything, but who knows, maybe at some point in the future
I just realised that having multiple intakes would be smarter, just in case one broke
since aberration
who knows when a random ass karkinos would break my pipes without any reason
I am gathering the stone the hardway and that's by metal hatchet. I am to lazy to go and get a doedicurus
I remember doing that when I was new to the game and I had no clue what a Doedic is
I filled up a large storage box in like a couple minutes of roaming around
I used to have 2 Parasaurs and I'd get them on stone harvesting trips...lol
I know it's worth it. I am just lazy
like, I Moved 50 meters and bam enough stone to fill my box
and also a roll rat for stone
will probably get a trike for thatch eventually
getting thatch with a pick is too slow for my lazy ass
Today I bred some sabers
still not sure what the best way of getting flint would be
ankies don't auto harvest regular stone which is really annoying
And if my friend manages to be online we will do some caving
Then my plan is to tame a max lvl argy I found not too far from my base and go to valguero
Then tame some aberrant deinonychus
Mods?
And that will be my first mutated creature
Yes, valguero additional creatures or something like that
Ah
It makes valguero really good
I love the S+ multi tool gun. It makes building so much easier
I love s+ in general
Even tho my fave mod is ark additions
my favourite is definitely DSv2
I don't have a favorite mod, I find the modding scene in this game to be kind of eh
custom dino levels is second
It's really good, cdl is good too
ARK Additions does have some really good models and animations
But most other mods involve making the game super easy
Cdl is a lifesaver imo
I need to get the fuck off of ab
but the problem is that I fucking can't
S+ is good. I have only recently been playing with ark additions and so far it is good and CDL is very good
the good mods are configurable to your liking
like DSv2
The good ones are very few
I don't use many mods
I think that you are able to transfer off with drops
I was about to say that I can't, before I started talking about mods
you can't transfer with drops in sp
Rippp
Not on single player
I completely forgot
Yeh, transmitters and obelisks exclusive
I'd either wait till I'm level 88 and can make a soul terminal, or get a drake
I made my soul terminal level 88
and also I'm allowing myself ot use it as a transmitter, though only on ab
That means I won't enter abb anytime soon
ab, single b
nah, if you come in with a lot of shit then it's easy to get out
Or maybe
or you can also do what I Did
dis
I mean, if I bring highly mutated ab deinos them I'm good I guess
are ab deinons radiation immune
No but mush brews
meh, I'd rather not risk it
Okay
I'm yet to get a drake, actually
I should get one
I could use the drake to get to rockwell terminal and get out without needing to get to level 88
let's go, rock drake saddle is level 75
I mean, once I get mutated ab deinos I was thinking of doing some OSDs or missions, not hard ones tho
Just put a gas collector on a gas vein. You get a lot of gas balls the
There is a place in blue zone full of gas holes
that's not the problem
I'll need red gems for the gas collectors
so many rats will have to die
An idea would be: tame a karki, make a rad suit, red gems
No?
it needs gas balls which need red gems
I didn't think of that
it's not a problem since roll rats give red gems, but it's still sad that so many rats will have to die
Slaughter the pests
Destruction
hey I like roll rats ;-;
Ez
hmm 20 gems per collector
managable
What colour do yous reckon will look the best on theris?
never really looked at theri colour regions
but best is to just mutate till you find colours that look good
That's what I am gonnd do. I am just gonna do all gamma bosses with mutated theris
if they're mutated then you can also do alpha
I'm not worrying about alpha
What you doin
Yeah except once all bosses are dead I am moving to next map. I don't care what dificulty I kill on
I will do all bosses alpha
same
I'm dreading genesis the most
for the missions, and for CMC
Almost every boss with different creatures
Same
Restarting it. I am not doing a cluster untill I get my new PC because I don't want to have to restart the game everytime I want to switch worlds
I'm not doing that
I know
instead I"m using allos for the island bosses
including the dragon
yeah that's a safe assumpton
I don't want to make super mutated allos so Idrk if I can do it or not
but I Do wanna try regardless
probably looking for 80 or above armour saddles
though if I had to guess, 100 is the minimum I can afford to win
if I Can't do it with allos then I"ll just use rexes
Theris imo are better
yeah I know
I used to say every time "I know theris are better but I'm using rexes just for fun" but then ketchup started pointing out that I say it too often so I stopped saying it and now everyone's telling me to use theris instead
still debating between tek or regular rexes though
tek would have better stats which is nice, but regulars aren't as much of a pain to tame
If you want tek ones, lunar on gen1 is best
I know that
I say this because of asteroids
Oke
I've died to asteroids once, don't want to have that happen again
the fucking first asteroid I notice and it fucking crushes me
Ik, that makes lunar a top 3 most dangerous biomes
hmm
I'll probably use a spino for getting my first rock drake
megalos are a bigger pain to tame
if they grab you instead of the mount then it's pretty much over
100 damage per second is no joke
if they grab the mount then there's a chance
if they run into a structure with a dino in their mouth then they'll drop the dino
so I can place a pillar in front of its face and that makes it drop my mount
but it's still a massive pain to tame them
spinos are way easier to tame
just clear the river out, take a ravager, lure it into trap, shoot and feed
nice and basic
Spinos are especially easy because of the amount of ovis there are around ab
that's true for megalos too, so I didn't mention that one
Spinos are 100% better for drakes because nothing aggros onto them, including purlovia whicch i had happen once and is why im never using megalo ever again
well, not including what happens after you take the egg
But just use like 6 climbing picks and a glider suit and you can get an egg in like 10 minutes with a bit of luck
megalos are way stronger in terms of stats
I want spinos and megalos anyway, might as well use one for drake getting
but yeah that apex predator status is sweet
I often use my spino for running around, apart from trampling damage it's perfect
I wouldnt say way stronger, they are smaller for one and take more knockback and when unridden they are usually worse in damage
why would you take an unridden megalo to go drake egg hunting
They do agro on the spino but only if you get close to them
Depends on the stats but i usually take mate boosted pair of spinos if i use dinos
ah I see
my unridden spinos seem to never go bipedal for some reason
maybe just luck
Yeah seems like rng but when they get into bipedal they seem to stay in it until done attacking
yeah
for stats what I can afford is probably 10k hp and 600% melee for the spino
for megalo
well I'm not getting a megalo so idk
Yeah probably fine although if you want most survivability level on hp because it levels much better
I know that, but since I've never stolen an egg I don't know how much I'll be running away and how much I'll be fighting
You will be fighting drakes you cant outrun though on a spino
And basically no fighting besides the drakes and maybe a queen but dont fight the queen
Biggest danger besides drakes is getting lost and hazmat breaking lol
The Drakes you shall fight, but the Queen you shall not
I think female theris have gone extinct on my world
Out of the dozen theris I have seen I have only see males
HAHA. The first female I find is max level
Lol
When i play Ark the map textures are wrong sometimes i just stand in the ground so i can only see half of my body can someone help?
Sometimes it happens, I think resetting the settings should work
And by settings I mean stuff like audio and graphics not the ingame settings (like breeding)
Does somone have a ps server?
When breading a Dino do they need food always or just enough to not starve to not lose imprint
depends on the dino, most need food straight away, breeds like wyverns, rock drakes are born with food so they dont need food straight away, they need it some hours after birth
Question how do i travel to another ark in official pvp servers with my loot
We are under MESH ATTACK admin GCM pleaseeeeee
via obelisk the green red and blue ones you see around the map, there is an upload section, limited to 50 stacks, some items you can take on you
but uploading takes a while and yesterday i was in ragnarok and i was going to crystal iles and my loot was in the obelist and nothing went trough
and i am scared to lose my wyf
well if you keep things on you for 15 mins, you can leave as soon as you get to the obelisk, the key is where you wait for that 15 min timer, it refreshes taht time everytime an item is moved out off and into your inventory
k
if you have tek helm or that exo skin helm, you can see that timer on your HUD
k thanks for helping!
it usually coincides with the server saves, np
so when you move item into inv you want to move, wait till after the next server save then you can go as soon as you can
Thx
115 mana saddle bp neat
@keen pecan use #735196277221883964 for lfg posts
damn nice
meanwhile I'm here, still wondering how the fuck to get from green zone to blue zone without a drake or jumping with a karkinos
Theres a path
every time my friends and I tried to do the "survive the ark" mission in genesis 2 the server crashes when it changes from mission 9 to 10, we did it 4 times and 4 times it crashed at the same time
Ok
you upload stuff on data
raft or ichthyosaurus to get to herbie island
Ichthy, rafts will likely get destroyed by leeds, there is usually at least one between the shores and herb island.
better yet, fly to there
i have encountered this problem before and its the only reason that im considering not using the raft but i have alot of inventory i need to move over to the island so thats why i was thinking about using the raft
I sure as hell can't find it
it brings me to blue zone outskirts but I can't go deepber without jumping
you can use the raft if you know that there's no leedsychthis
Scout with the ichthy and then use a raft
flying has the same problem as ichthy
an argy wouldn't
well, depending on the amount of stuff
but yeah this is the most efficient option I'd say
my plan is to go to herbie island tame a trike anky and pteradon than fly said pteradon to volcano area and tame an argy
so i dont have an argy yet lol
That’s not a good plan
I'd just suggest not going to herbi island
why not
Well truth be told, you can tame a pt pretty much anywhere
^^^^
herbi island is overrated af
Carnivore island>Herbivore island
same goes for trike
yea but it might have a higher chance of being higher level just because the sheer amount of them compared to the rest of the island
and anky, I'd suggest taming after getting an argy
The only thing I'd go to herb for would be the anky
the island is like tiny, I can imagine there being 5 pteranodons
also metal
and that, I'd go to after taming an argy
which does not currently exist in south zone 1
the argy would help in taming the anky
Argys are so slow
they can carry a lot
Ya but there slow and it takes forever to get to places
*they're
and they can carry a lot what more you want
so let me understand this do i just not go to herbie island
they can also carry the anky for taming
any 1 know any good servers to play 🤣
I only bring them for metal runs
I shoved my anky into a 4 by 4 hut with 4 forges
I like argies a lot, they're good for anything apart from moving fast
Next to the volcano
that feels like a waste of space
you could fit 4 forges on 3 foundatiosn
easier to have a dino to keep it safe
How tolerant are you with lag
@soft dust check #800537627752398899 or #800537518843756544 for unofficial servers
Good luck dude
where should i go instead of herbie island
No not really. It took me like 10 minutes to find a spot and about 3 to build the small hut. In return all I have to do is go back evrey once in a while and get like 400 metal and such. And I don’t have to worry about anything attacking it
Depends on how far progressed you are
I just made my entire base close to metla
I don't have to move at all to collect metal
and since I always clear out the area aroudn my base, there's no problem with attacks
Smart. I put mine close to green and red obelisk
i have no tames except for an itchy but i have crossbow pike and metal tools
get a ptera, get a trike
Tame a pt first. Stay on the beach and don’t go into the ocean.
Ocean=bad
oceans only bad if your not gangster but i am 
famous last words
*you're
*You're
what
anyways pt then what like go straight for an argy or something else?
ptera, triek, argy, and then doedic and anky
ight
Get a beaver or a mammoth for wood. I’d say beavers are better cuz there faster but it’s really up to your own preference.
oh ok
mammoths are way better
Not in my opinion
it's not about opinion
beaver has way lesser weight, smaller AOE, if you're manually riding them then they're definitely worse
but you can also use them in combo with an argy, which is what makes them good
in that case their speed does jack shit
do tamed beavers build the beaver hut things
no
alright so I didn't find a way to get to inner blue zone without a karkinos or drake, but I did find a pathway to a fuckload of metal
so that's my problem solved I think
can i beat ferox cull on alpha with a non imprintef 1700 melee and 19k hp giga?
hmm doesn't ferox have a dismount attack
1.7k melee, not 1700k
1700k or 1700?
wait no
1700k= 1.700.000
it should be a comma, not a dot/period
ok
1700 sorry i just added the k accidentallly
6k
yes 6-7k damage
well, I found my permanent base location on aberration
close to the important things, stone, wood and metal
and blue gems
didn't bother about green gems
i want to make a base on the wastelands on extintion
snow would be an interesting place to base in
also is relatively close to where I can get drake eggs from, I think
Hello
hello
near a charge node too?
within walking distance
gas vein?
hmm
not sure about that one
I do know gas veins that are close to it, but not "right next to" sorta close
but I could also just take a ravager every hour or so to collect the gas from the 3 or 4 that I do know the location of
gas vein doesn't need to be right next to me, right?
to collect gas, I mean
I won't be leaving base much, I'm settling next to a spino and karkinos area so Idon't need to go far to tame them
they can be unrendered, its not much of a priority but as long as you can get to a vein within a minute or 2 then youre fine.
yep, easiy
oh yeah I'm also right next to 1 plant Z, and relatively close to 2 others
uninstall windows
well ,I think that covers everything
wait.. noooooooooooooooooooooo
trees, rocks, metal, blue and green gems, city terminal, gas vein, and plant Y
false alarm
oof
If I do mesh for defend us later we deep wipe for wilcard or wilcard enter and see us inside ban us , we are trobules for hours
Does crafting skill effect speed on mortal and pestle?
nope
only on your inventory, what it does affect is how good wil the bp you craft be
ok nevermind, turns out general already has like 50 billion spammers
if you craft a 60 saddle bp with 300 crafting skill it will be way better than 100 crafting skill
What is the best way to get xp through crafting
industiral grinder, craft a lot of thatch
120 xp each
Meshing is a bannable offense. You can read up on the code of conduct here https://survivetheark.com/index.php?/code-of-conduct/
@tulip magnet is it 120 xp with the x3 or without. Also is that the xp for the crafting or grinding or both. (dont have a grinder atm)
with
is for crafting thatch with the grinder
just place a lot of wood
and start grinding/crafting it into thatch
it's grinding, not crafting
How much would a breeding pair of 30k stegos sell for
Do you need to be near mortal and pestle to get the xp?
What's meshing??
thats not cap so most people wouldnt want but im sure theres someone out there and will buy, and price wise its hard to say because everyone pays different
wouldnt recommend going into the mesh even to defend from the people meshing, the best you can do is move all the stuff you value, and take as much proof of the people doing it and put a ticket in
you should be able to do it, just be ready to spam yourself to get back on the giga asap or use tek suit and whistle the giga on it and it will kill it quick.
If u struggle try hovering above giga and whistling it to attack. U hang back with Tek rifle if u can use it n take a few shots. Jus be high enough to avoid his jump n u be fine
and can i beat it if i take all of my bossfight rexes?
just use tek pistol for the alpha
That's pc. Can't get 1,700,000 on official it jus reads as 1700
that's not what I meant
Ok lol
I meant even 1700 is high af
yeah its not the worse way to do it, depends on server ping if your doing it on official
The server where im at is EU because we got no OC for gen 2 in legacy, the ping is constantly in between 160-200+, best way we did it is lure it into spots with alot of trees and tek phase pistol it from a distance
Is the dolphin in star dolphin getting fixed. I keep getting off the dolphin for some reason
yeah doing it with that ping is rough, wouldnt a giga whistled it be better?
yup after transfer enabled we use giga, b4 that thats how we did it and also for those who dont have good gigas
but when will the team look for the you don't own DLC issue :(
we don't even know if it's known
Who want an target rocket idea
anyone know when windows 10 will get the 941.6 update like xbox has?
I don’t play ark a lot but anyone know the way to play on a server w just your friends
@viral shore@tall minnowfix team canoe mission
That magic moment, when you only lose to a Kraprosuckass because you think you have your pike equipped.
But you are actually hitting it with your puny little monkey fist 🍌
And doing more damage to yourself than it is doing to you.
When does the sale for the dlcs end or does it not end
@viral shore Fix the You don't own this dlc error when joining non dedicated dlc servers. Thanks
what should i do at night?
Is there a spot to promote a sever here?
?
@dim kestrel yes, in #800538767252389888 or #800538816691699722 , depending on game mode. If its both you can post one in each of those 2.
Thank you
No problem. Check #bulletin-board-rules first though, sorry I should have led with that.
Can i report someone for pillar spamming in a spot that there not using?
No
Fish
Please fix the fucking servers
It keeps fucking crashing i’m done
the problem i that i am not enough level
hey so i made my base in a castle(like part of the map) anyone know a way i could light it up without placing walls everywhere?
Should i get a regular wyvern or not? I have 5 crystal wyverns rn
how do i add gameusersettings from mods on ark servers?
Should i get a regular wyvern or not? I have 5 crystal wyverns rn
How long does it take for a wyvern egg to hatch?
Depends on the attributes
Why did Kishko quit
then use giga instead
@silent matrix
Ye
i would like to play on your genesis world
Do u play on steam?
yes
Ok ill dm
thenks
Estimated time on official server till a baby wyvern grows to a adult?
Anyone know how long it takes for rockarot to grow from fruitling
and on a unofficial server?
Official i think 4d 1h
and u have to play nonstop or u get brakes?
On dedicated no but on sp then yes you have to llay for 97 hrs yes
Official should only be 6 hours
wait rly?
He means the carrots
ah
What’s up
Its been a month or 2 sense i played ark and i just load it and see the lost islands release date. Interesting time to release the free dlc
What weapons should i craft at lvl 77?? And im at ragnarok only have valguero ragnarok and crystal isles
Pls fast
Anyone else on ark single player experiencing crashes every single time they ssve and exit the map?
Can someone help me? About dino levels in each map
Wym
About distribution levels of the maps @grand summit
You mean which maps spawn higher level dinos?
my ark is stuck on downloading on steam, this happens for no other games and i can't play ark anyone had similar issues?
In official dlc maps, you have like a good chance for high level dinos. in the island or scorched earth for example the higher the level the harder to find. I wanted to ask if there is a way to make ragnarok map the same distribution level as the island, so that is is harder to find the higher dinos.
Not entirely sure but I’m pretty sure that increasing the difficulty level also makes higher level dinos spawn less frequently.
Icesar being meshed live on yt. Don't you just love this game
where can you do that, on the slider in game settings i already slided the slider to the max. but that only makes it so lvl 150 dinos spawn?
Есть кто играет на EU pvp raid cross protection 5
why i cant see genesis 2 , in epic adons
😄 okay won't even try
honestly he looks just a bit bigger than a rex and I eat rexes in like 5 seconds
Oh, is it on a booster server?
official rates
@tulip bone lv 1 wild giga has base hp of 75k
giga has a big area attack so your tames will just get slaughtered
ok so how does one kill a giga? do I need a reaper or smth lol
most players use another high end bred giga
hm okay
Once of these days they will take care of dupers
Oi any of u on official big tribes
I don't see why you couldn't disable the mission from being run rather than ... since entire event having it crash 5 servers at once
maybe it hadn't been coded in or something, maybe wasn't possible fair enough
Someone here who got knowledge of map distribution dino levels?
what are the wishbones for?
You can craft chibis and skins with them in cooking pot
If you get 400wishbones you can summon and tame dodo rex temporarily
Usually Island has low percentage of higher level dinos, if you want high levels maybe search on genesis or ragnarok
Look dm
Yep that's a whole difficult thing, got 100 wishbones so far :p
i could beat the forest titan from ark in a fight
Taming a griffin… fucking hell
Managed to knock it out and trap it. Didnt know my Argen was basically unneeded
Anyhow. Is there a way to stack Prime meat or Mutton on console?
no
Wack
anyway back to my point
i could beat the forest titan easily
i need a lighter and matches
how long does it last
25 minutes I think
For fun :p
But if you have that many wishbones better craft some skins and chibi
You can ride the dodorex too and kill stuff
H
any dinos that are really good at harvesting wood?
i need a shit ton for a wyvern trap
Theri, mammoth, bever, stryder
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
Stryder is like the worst thing for wood lol
Its the one resource it sucks at gathering
It gets wood at a lower capacity but still an average stryder in redwoods can outperform any medium wood gatherer
Get a bever, you can carry with an argy and the bever can bite trees
And it got weight reduction
ill take your word for it because ive never tamed either :HDfailure:
Ye, thats the redwoods
Use any of the four listed above in the redwoods and youll get like 20x more
Stryder gets like 200 wood after harvesting like 30 normal trees
Also bever saddles act as smithy so you can craft stuff too
Definitely not good
Wow! Did they get nerfed? I remember last time on official my level 15 stryder got enough woods to craft 15/20 dino gates in several minutes, from a barren land on ragnarok
can some1 help me get off of oc extintction 489 all the termenls are vault dropped
That's.....sad. there are some terminals outside of the city you know
no all termenals are vault dropped
Dunno what to say, if you have a flyer maybe check every single city terminal from ark wiki page, otherwise you can go into any titan cave
The caves are non buildable area and you might find a loot crate to transfer off
i have nothing i came here to get notes
I have a unique solution if you are willing to try
ye
snagged a level 209 beaver
wasnt very easy but i got it
now its time to rid the entirety of rag of trees
I would suggest desert titan cave so you don't have to worry about cold
I don’t think they were ever nerfed… I used one on 2.5x gather and got like 200 wood in a few minutes
Congrats
wtf
i'm stuck in an infinite knock out loop in a cave
nvm i got off the pressure plate at the last second but i'm gonna be knocked out for another couple minutes
can someone play ark with me play on pc I'm down to play with anyone just dm and call me
Use a couple grapple hook to speedrun like spiderman to boss summon terminal, you can transfer off from there
First time I encountered a turkey I tried punching it. I figured I could just tame it like I could a dodo.
However, it turns out that Turkeys are some kind of powerful monster capable of taking on entire armies single handedly. They will leave you alone if you leave them alone at least. But mess with them and there is no escape. You can't even hop on a water creature and get away by swimming.
Usual Ark inbalances... just have a giga or two and n/p :/
To be fair its not like Ark is meant to be balanced.
Happy birthday
@spiral ermine
So is everyone playing ark rn
I am mass breeding theris to make a super op army for the bosses except I keep getting mutations for stamina and weight which is an absolute waste. I want health or melee
This is getting really annoying. Out of the dozen mutations every single one has been either speed, stam or weight
daaang i found the most perfekt castor
https://www.dododex.com/stat-calculator/castoroides/150?&ph=24&ps=25&po=16&pf=21&pw=19&pd=24
Seems like a scam lmao
You have to level one tame with just hp stat
Then level your 2nd tame with melee
Then breed those two together Then you should get one that getz mutated hp or melee Then keep the cycle going
@silent matrix
I know. I finally got my melee mutation
seeshell gaming has a nice tutorial for that
I watched Syntacs video on muattions and I finally somewhat understand it
she explains it very well form the starting breed till mutations
send the vid to u in pns
Who’s playing small tribes and had a giga Im tryna trade for it
I trapped a shadowmane in a taming pen, but it doesn't sleep during the day. What should I do?
@viral shore get rid of Conquest server and re add Classic PVP
Turkeys are the terror of bobs
Thats not how mutations work… lol
Amazing. Every word you just said was wrong
Could I use a shaodwmane for leveling in the swamp cave instead of a mega?
can tamed diplodocus do damage?
since when was this even a thing
im glad i wasnt the only one to go W T F
just so you know, the mutation you get is totally random. totally random.
i might suggest some of the third party discords that do ingame trades for dinos you might be able to pick up a pre mutated theri, unless your set on doing it yourself 🙂
I know it's random and I am doing this myself.
this here suggested you werent aware
new server here if anyone wants to try us out. I’m sure you’ll like it
ha
Oh sweet they fixed the sta bug
Now I can stop having to copy and paste a message saying that thats a thing
sence my rock drake was born with over 2400 food does he need venom
when i check and uncheck the DLC why does it download the dlc again if its already been downloaded?
I am so confused with my mating. like idk what I have done wrong. I am breeding one mutated theri with 1 mutation with 6 unmutated females and I just got a baby theri with a second melee mutation but it's saying it's mutated three times
NVM. I found my issue
Hey anyone use ASM? I'm wondering if "Prevent Offline PvP" checkbox prevents all damage instead of just pvp?
I do but can't help because I only play PvE
I thought it might be handy for a public PvE server so people don't just drag titanos to your base while you're offline lol
Though on that note - any advice to prevent griefing? Settings or mods to get?
Nope
No it won't prevent that?
after thinking on it not only could i beat the forest titan in a fight
No I don't have advice
what should i explore caves with
torch
It depends on the cave
Have a few good tames with you since most caves have strong creatures.
I just go in caves with one decent tame
Let's say average cave so like no underwater parts, and big enough for a spino
thyla
btw i'm not describing a certain cave
Ok thank you
Sabertooth, baryonyx
i thought baryonyx were only useful when in swamps
Use a deinonychus
Bary can also be used in caves
Ok
I wish I didn't have to go to work. I wanna continue breeding my theris
I'm not joking but because of my server settings if I have like 8 theris breeding with one male I can have 60 or 70 theris in like 2 mins
just bought all of the expansions :D
Do tek fabricators work like fabricators? Just using element, like fabricators use gas but not generators?
yes?
So the tek replicator doesn't need to have the tek generator crafted to craft tek stuff if you have the engrams?
the replicator just needs element to turn on. it does not get power from a generator
k, thanks.
Is there anything I need to notice on Extinction, when I hear loud far away booms?
meteors falling from the sky are hard to miss
but if you are in the city or a bio dome you're safe
Oh, weird, I'm in the city... k good to know.
The Gen 2 tek suit doesn't work on other maps without element... but, is it the same equip as the ones you get as drops fighting bosses?
it does need element on other maps, and you can only use it off gen2 if you have the tekgrams from the bosses
Soul balls are a great source for XP because once my terminal is full I am gonna destroy them all
Oh, so the Gen 2 tek suit is like a taste of tek without taking it with you?
It's a tek suit with similar armor as cloth, runs on other maps if you have tekgram learned and have element and insane durability
gen2 tek suit is the same but instead of being made out of poly element and ingots its made out of cloth fiber bandages and sticks
Oh and you can't grind it
yeah
But both tek suits can't be taken off Gen 2 without fighting the bosses anyways? Meaning, even the cloth level doesn't come with you?
It comes with you and you can even wear it, but jetpack and other stuff doesn't work
k. Is it true that the giant gorilla boss beta is what to farm for tek engrams and element?
beta monkey is easy for the amount of ele it gives, but it doesnt give all the tekgrams, so you still need to do the other bosses
for tekgrams you can do valguero and brood on the island
k, is there an easy search to what boss drops which engrams, I never noticed that on the wiki...
on alpha of course
gen 2 boss gives the important tekgrams too, even on beta
I like to rush alpha ab rockwell for tekgrams first since he gives a really good spread and it easy
I'll research the gen 2 boss, but isn't that endgame endgame boss?
Search google for ark table of tekgram and you can see which bosses give which
the tributes take 50 years to get tho
it's one of the easier bosses
that is very true
k, cool
should be possible with good rexes on beta
both valg and brood on island have pretty easy tributes ngl
and neither are particularly hard fights
only problem is manticore's landing on valg
There's two classes of things you need for bosses: the trophies and then all the dino kills that give specific drops like spino sails?
correct
gamma only requires trophies, and beta requires a few dino kills and trophies
then alpha requires the most of both
but I say only alpha or beta are worth doing
Is there a list of the most efficient bosses to use to get the most engrams/better engrams? Idc so much about building tek stuff, but tek saddles, armor, some weapons, the feeding trough, the cloning thing and idr anything more atm.
Because just a list of what the bosses drop may not expose which is the best bang for the buck...
It took me 5 o 10mins to produce over 300 theris
manticore gives some of the best grams(geny, dedis, trough, tp, cloner) and se tributes are super easy but it doesnt give full tek suit
k, I'll research that one too.
If you do the ice titan it gives you tek chest and helmet
I'm gonna cut and paste this stuff into one document... one sec.
I never looked too deep into this stuff since I plan on doing the bosses in order anyway
I've always done all tests backwards, because more often than not, the answers of the beginning questions are contained in the ending questions... so why not for Ark too?
I'm only looking into it now for this person, I've had all the tek unlocked on my main character for like 2 years now. forgot who gives what, so I'm on the wiki
And beta rockwell or beta brood mother for boots
well, ark isn't a test, it's a game
yeah I was going off of memory of what others say
It's both to me, and a time sink par excellence.
doing ark backwards will just lead to pain (gen 1, extinction)
oh speaking of extinction, the titans give tekgrams too
sland bosses are the best to start from to gain experience on bossfighting
I'm trying to use all the maps in a combination and order that most "easily" makes my life in the game "easy." While enjoying the process.
yeah if you have like 5 good gigas and a few lightning wyverns you can knock out like half of the tekgrams in an hour with the titans
so that's not doing it backwards, it's doing it in a special order
Well, you should've said so
do you only want tekgrams or do you wanna kil all the bsoses
if you want all the bosses then I Can help
Killing bosses are only a means to an end to me... tek engrams.
What benefit is killing the bosses themselves?
ascension levels
they give coolass trophies and ascensions
oh, I don't even know wth that is!
just extra levels for your survivor
you can level up to 180 if you do everything
Different than the ghibi stuff? Whoa, don't know how I got a ghillie suited up chibi...
chibi, not ghibi
and yeah chibis only level up by 5
By the way, rockwell beta boss unlocks almost every good stuff except tek chest piece
and chibis only gain levels from alpha kills
yeah but as I said already, 50 years to get the tributes
ascension levels are just normal levels
beta doesnt need the alpha tributes
oh that makes things easier
Idk, I'm just copying and pasting atm...
Beta is easier, for alpha , the reaper king and basilisk tributes are hard to find
What does the chestpiece do? I didn't notice it does anything in Gen 2, but I couldn't fly like in anime either, even with ctrl space W... unless it only looks like that after pressing k?
Oh yeah, I just noticed
I've never seen reapers or basilisk yet, idt.
you're aiming a bit far lol
that's a feature of combined chestpiece and pants
Well, I'm trying to map my route forward...
a little too forward
I go until I get confused, back up and try again with smaller goals.
But if you bring friends you can probably cheese almost every gamma and beta boss
I prefer starting from the smaler goals
every time i Aim big I just end up giving up
cheesing bosses is just uncool
If you don't aim big, you never gain big. I've always aimed higher than I could attain, but I always attained more than I thought I could too.
you know, aiming small many times is still something big achieved
but, philosophy aside
first focus on getting a base set up, and think of what bossfighters you'll want to use on what maps
you can do ab with no bossfighters, just cactus broth and a really good shotgun
Yep
scorched is easy, can easily be done with even mediocre rexes
Center bosses are easy too
island, monke is easy, brood is a little hard but not too hard
Dragon can pretty much be skipped at first, it's really hard
extinction titans are world bosses so they're easy
and gen 1
just no
Is gamma dragon gonna be really hard when you have 19 FULLY mutated theris and a yuty?
gen 2 beta boss is worth it if you ask me, it gives good tekgrams at beta
Alpha brood hard, beta gamma easy
stats matter more than them being "mutated"
It'll be like 70 or 80 points into both health and melee
end stat is?
that's way overkill
Aren't mutations like a 1 in 30 chance? How long did it take you to do that?
it's the dragon, 70 wild points definitely isn't overkill
there's 0.5 -1 % chance of getting a desired mutation on a dino
you just breed in bulk for a really long time
your theris need like 21k hp good saddles and 800% melee to do dragon easily
I haven't fully mutated yet. I just got my second melee mutation but it takes me 15mins to breed 500 theris
your, not yuo're
I got rekt in beta rockwell gen 2
the health is fine but I think 800% is too low
I'd rather 1k% melee as a minimum
though I Think with 1k% you could do dragon even with engram saddles
my theris were around 800% and they all survived
k, thank you all for the help. Gonna sleep on this...
with what, 80 armour saddle?
I just got a purple on zone 0 and it looks nice
dont remember. just saddles I got from gen1 missions
gen 1 missions give theri saddles?
I remember browsing gen 1 mission tables, didn't see any mission for theri saddle I do believe
the it was from a loot box, but my cluster had custom loot, so I dont know
ah I see
well, I don't need to worry about bosses at all for now
I'm on ab and trying to move bases closer to the blue zone
moving is so annoying when you have like 50 billion resources to move
I'm not moving the wood and stone but I still have so much not including that
but I Think it's worth it, the base location I chose is pretty centralised I Think
next to a river so I can easily tame karkinos and spinos, close to blue zone so I Can tame its creatures, and also right next to a lot of metal
my ab base is in such an inconvenient spot, but the view is incredible and high enough toward the ceiling that nameless wont spawn in my house
I just settled at the edge of the green zone so I wouldn't need to deal with nameless
I'm right next to blue zone, and red zone is pretty close, but no nameless to bother me
I'm just about hanging over the edge above red zone
also thinking if it's worth it to get tree sap taps
eventually I'd just get gachas which give loads of sap
eh I think I'll just wait for gachas
which map is your main base on?
gen1 right now. on one of the hanging islands in the bog
I'm planning on setting my main base on ab
so it'd be very big issue if my main base was in a bad spot
so I'm really hoping that the spot I chose rn is a good spot
I think I'll move my main base to ab or gen2 and pick up all my outposts on other maps. it sucks spending 3 hours rendering all my bases every week
luckily on sp that's not an issue
what is an issue is that transferring is a big pain
ab is a decent place for base minus the fact that it's pretty much a prison
it's not so bad once you get a transmitter down
for a lvl 110 brachiosaurus how many asult riffle rounds would you need you say we just used 450
yeah except I'm just starting off
well for now I'll focus on getting a drake and getting out
Where do you shoot a brachiosaurus to tame it?
in the feet I think
can we not promote our own discord in this server
If they’re ark related and have to do with a server that you want to recruit people to, then you can put it in #800537680784916501 or #800538567122092053
Other than that, no
currently split between getting a megalo, bary, or carno on rag
is it hard to join someones pvp tribe?
if they want u in the tribe they'll invite u
time to bring all the metal and all the charcoal that I own
thats gonna weigh a lot
Ravager
Karkinos
It has double the weight of a ravager and iirc ravagers don't have reduction on ingots
Luckily I spent most of my metal before moving lol
As I said ravagers don't got no reduction on ingots
But I should've done that when moving some things, it would've been smart
If you’re only transporting metal and charcoal then yeah
But for like moving smithy resources? Ravager ftw
psssh, real men use a raptor
nah fam, phiomia ftw
or even better, pachies
well, I'm really hoping I can get an anky
I only need a single one, I'll be using the karkinos to throw it around so I don't need to dual wield or worry about its weight
I saw a 130 doed on mobile getting bullied by scorpions
dat 75% reduction tho
use that to ur advantage and ko it while its already being poisoned
oh what
Like I have stuff to tame it lol
on the ankies
yeah you still get it even if the anky is encumbered
hm, I have like 500 iron ingots
hopefully enough until I can afford an anky
nice to see a fellow mobile player
Nah, I’m done playing it for a while
Only played it while I was on vaca away from my console
its pretty bad
Its alright
i hate the amber store
🎵 jumping from base to base 🎵
Btw how do you breed in there
Female says “ready to breed”
Male doesn’t say anything
And there isn’t any option to enable breeding
set to wander
put on wander
Wander doesn’t work from what I saw
hmmm....they need to be really close together
At least there wasn’t any visual thing, no mating bar
like, really SQUISH them
hey nice, I have like 1200 charcoal
thats a lot of gunpowder
I see
I'll convert it after I get a chem bench
I'm only 4 levels away
that's, what, 100 spinos worth of xp?
I need a box to breed pteras right
Theyll fly away otherwise
Oh sweet
Never done wandering breeding, joined after they added mating option
But I got two pteras with decent (I hope) stats
After my first one died lol
alright time to make myself rich again
building tips on deep water
Bring scuba
the extreme amount of exp u need late game is the worst
fuckign karkinos attack
psssh, use diplocaulus
is it worth taming a basilisk
why not
because 4 drake eggs and thats with the current 3x with the event
they seem cool, havent tried
are they good enough to waste 4 drake eggs and tons of effort on
No one said the drake eggs had to be good lvls
you'd just eat the eggs otherwise
im heading to ab tomorrow anyways and plan on stealing drake eggs with my reaper
Actually, nah. Don’t tame a basilisk
Not worth taming one when you can trade for an insanely broken one
Lvl 1000+ I think?
that's a glitch you know
me in singleplayer negotiating with a mushroom
and I think it was for voidwyrms not basilisks
Ye, and? Not like it exists anymore
and what? you like using glitches?
perry i tame my own shit i dont trade for everything
a level 1000+ would get removed with a server restart
¯_(ツ)_/¯ window might be fine with it
Youd think…
yes i am
yeah lvl 450 and above goes away with every server shutdown, update, or restart
so if I had to guess, people used the glitch on unofficial
Yes, definitely. Rexes with 30k hp and 1000+ melee are your own efforts
i said i dont trade for everything
Ah rip
Thought I heard something about them somehow bypassing the lvl cap
if that exists then it's most probably a glitch that still exists and would be used more often right now and would also get you muted
Anywho this is getting too dangerous into the breaking-the-server-rules convo, so imma stop talking about it
don't give him shit for wanting to tame and not trade for something
i trade for rexes because thats how pve is, it has an economy, i trade for boss dinos because mutating dinos on official is hard as shit, not to mention getting them to 30k hp and 1k melee
Wdym? He just said he didn’t trade for stuff, then I provided an example where he did
i said i dont trade for everything, i trade for things i wanna trade
he said "I don't trade for Everything"
How am I supposed to know the difference
because you know english
the only things really worth trading for are boss dinos, everything else is rather useless to mutate, or just not worth trading tons of poly for a nice cotton candy color
Specific to him, obviously
what
no that's literally what his sentence meant in the first place
you misunderstood it, sure
but it was grammatically correct
Does anyone know why they won't let me assemble the mek? I already built them but he won't let me put them together
"they" as in?
i agree
Your pfp was default blue discord logo for a second there
it was nice to use not my hands to harvest the first time
basilisks are not immune to radiation are they
doedics/beavers are my savior
so mcuh wood and stone acquired
Correct, they are not
They spawn in rad zone, logic
im watching syntac go to the red zone in a basilisk
ark logic
I have so fucking much stone and wood now
well, only 5k
but still
i dont harvest without reason its boring harvesting and not having things to look up to
damn basilisks seem horrible
its always nice to have extra materials
I don't harvest without a reason
but I moved to a new base location and didn't bring any stone or wood with em
so I got some extra in 5 minutes just so I have some at hand, just in case
im gonna be harvesting tons of stone
but basilisks are cute
building outpost on ab tomorrow, just a nice little protective decorated box
dang, ragnarok is huge
i agree but when it comes to helping fight things theyre useless, especially when you got a reaper
arthros, the most annoying thing to fight
*than
bruh
yoo 150 monke
monke moment
monker
give it glasses
a pack of 3 arthros
