ark-survival-ascended

[slender basalt]

Just a tamed one from highlands or som

[silent matrix]

Yeesh

He'd need tranq arrows tho

[slender basalt]

He’s high enough level for that

That’s actually what I’m doing I just got back on. Lost any and all connections 💀

[silent matrix]

U need lvl 96 for giga saddle and 62 for normal tranq dart

[slender basalt]

Well I got a saddle from gen 2

[silent matrix]

Ah

[slender basalt]

But yeah the tranq darts

[silent matrix]

Gen 2 has really good drops and I don't know why

[slender basalt]

It’s a double edged sword

[silent matrix]

Twice the damage lol

[slender basalt]

Yup

It’s cool tho, but I think ark is starting to get less popular after it released

At least on ps4 idk abt pc

[silent matrix]

Same on xbox

It got popular because of lost island but it's basically the same as the other maps but with three new dinos

[quartz kraken]

best way to kill a giga is what to trap it? and hit with arrows

[silent matrix]

At low lvl yea

[slender basalt]

If your a lower level player than yeah

[lone osprey]

would a theri be worth getting over a mammoth idk im torn and have a personal vendetta against beavers

theyre so ugly and annoying i despise those beavers

[slender basalt]

Theri for sure

[silent matrix]

Theri in my opinion

[lone osprey]

ah alr ty

[silent matrix]

Gets berry's fiber wood and thatch

[lone osprey]

true

thatch?? a theri??

[silent matrix]

Yea

[slender basalt]

Yup

Also good for boss fights

[lone osprey]

i admittedly didnt know that despise playing for a few years lol

[silent matrix]

I think the tickle attack gets fiber and thatch

[lone osprey]

i avoid theris like the plague

ohh

[silent matrix]

I have a wyvern so there easy to kill lol

[brittle sorrel]

Anyone knows extincion alpha tree location?

[blazing glade]

try trapping one

[lone osprey]

theyre not hard to kill by mid game but they still scare me for some reason

[blazing glade]

its fun to trap

[lone osprey]

true

i like to kill unicorns on sight in rag for fun tbh

[blazing glade]

what

[lone osprey]

sadly theyre rare

[silent matrix]

You could Google it? Or watch a yt vid. Idk tho. Never heard of it before

[lone osprey]

idk why

i have a kill count of seven i think

[silent matrix]

Yeesh

Idk how y'all find em

[lone osprey]

theyre so annoying to find theyre rare

[slender basalt]

They usually around highlands aren’t they

[lone osprey]

it takes a while for one to spawn

[silent matrix]

I've searched the island like 5 times with a dino wipe and still can't find any

[weary urchin]

I think I know the answer to this question but I just need to clarify: do trodons knock you off mounts?

[lone osprey]

yup highlands are the best place for equus in general

[lone osprey]

no

[silent matrix]

Nada

[lone osprey]

thank god they dont

[silent matrix]

Micro raptors do tho

[slender basalt]

I think you mean microraptors

[celest patio]

cant they knock you off if you have enough torpor

[weary urchin]

good

[blazing glade]

yup

[lone osprey]

tlc idea make troodons bigger

[silent matrix]

They deal torpor so it kinda evens out

[lone osprey]

yeah true

[celest patio]

yeah @weary urchin

just be careful

[lone osprey]

dont u have to sacrifice ur own tames to get a troodon

[weary urchin]

Tlc increase trodon damage and Argo range to 50000

[lone osprey]

tlc idea make troodons the size of a stego

[slender basalt]

Fuck no

[silent matrix]

Lol.

[weary urchin]

I don’t want one. Those bugggers are my sworn enemy

[lone osprey]

the stego tlc was much needed tbh

[silent matrix]

bru ima lose my stuff in upload

[silent matrix]

Yea

Just get baby dinos or eggs and hatch em

[lone osprey]

theoretically how well would sacrificing a unicorn be for a troodon

[silent matrix]

Idk

[lone osprey]

i will gladly do it honestly just to see a unicorn perish

[silent matrix]

I think their like the noglin

[slender basalt]

Same this is dumb

[silent matrix]

ark better give my gigas back

Upload?

[lone osprey]

okay so its fine in every other map but in lost island and val my graphics arent loading correctly no matter what i try its so damn weird

[placid sundial]

Servers wipe on offi?

[lone osprey]

and whats up with the shadows in lost island bruh

[frigid grove]

They are broken for sure. 9 servers listed for pve

[silent matrix]

Ik

[tranquil epoch]

Yes

[silent matrix]

No

[tranquil epoch]

There are no sessions showing up at all on unofficial servers

Allready tryed it 20times and still nope

[silent matrix]

Rip

[lone osprey]

im sorry i love ark but they did the ovis so dirty in terms of spawn locations equus too

they die instantly after spawning its funny but so annoying

especially ovis theyre painfully slow

[silent matrix]

Lost island they spawn in safe areas

[tough yarrow]

Depends on the map tbh

[lone osprey]

dont raptors spawn in the plains in lost island?

[silent matrix]

Safeish

[silent matrix]

Yea

[tranquil epoch]

Yea this is fr bs

[ivory cradle]

Is it just me or are the only servers ark poc

[unborn marten]

I didn’t know this plesiosaur was unconscious

There goes my taking effectiveness

[lone osprey]

yeah i meant like with the exception of the highlands and stuff

[silent matrix]

😂

[lone osprey]

the highlands are amazing i love that area so much

[tranquil epoch]

Yea PlayStation servers for unofficial is bugged I think or something

[ivory cradle]

So is official I just wanna go on gen 2

[lone osprey]

my favorite creatures aside from the giga spawn in the highlands tbh

[tranquil epoch]

Update was dogshit

[silent matrix]

Why does everyone just play multiplayer???

[tough yarrow]

Any area with large open plains should be the safest place for those imo lmao put the scary stuff in the harder areas

[lone osprey]

its weird on the island ovis only spawn in the black sands and the snow (i think?)

[paper nimbus]

some ppl like it, others don't. I myself am SP gang

[tough yarrow]

They spawn in the plains with maewings on li

[unborn marten]

Nvm 83%

[silent matrix]

Same. It's good for beesing nonstop

[lone osprey]

honestly ark is so much better in multiplayer imo but sp’s fun too

[silent matrix]

Eh not too bad

Is there any possible way to increase mutations?

Been breeding for about 3 hours and only got a few

[paper nimbus]

i personally prefer being able to play whenever i want, and quit whenever i want. this is coming from a person who is usually inactive and basically only plays on weekends

[silent matrix]

That's why I play sp

[ivory cradle]

When are they gonna fix the severe

[lone osprey]

yeah fair point

[tough yarrow]

#announcements

[silent matrix]

Dunno

[quartz kraken]

for farming scrap metal what do y'all recommend for a wolf stats?
like how much melee with how much weight

[silent matrix]

50/50

I think

[lone osprey]

is genesis part 1 a fun map to play on? ive avoided it and only have gone on genesis part 2 honestly

[quartz kraken]

so 1 goes to melee other level weight ok

[silent matrix]

Dunno

I watched blurs 100 days underwater and it seemed pretty fun

But I've only played once and I dies constantly

[lone osprey]

the biomes in genesis 1 aside from the oceanic one terrify me tbh

[quartz kraken]

I apparently in a journey gathered 110 scrap from random teks I'll eventually get a Tek farm going

[silent matrix]

Which is funny because the ocean spawn is said to be hard

[lone osprey]

the equus designs in genesis part 2 are the only reason i play that map tbh theyre my fav creature

[silent matrix]

Yeesh. That's a lot of netal

[lone osprey]

really..?

[silent matrix]

Yea

[quartz kraken]

I'm after done leech blood on my journey😂

[lone osprey]

the little islands in the ocean biome are anything but dangerous tho

[ivory cradle]

They should work faster

[lone osprey]

also should i get extinction aberration or scorched first

[silent matrix]

Your after done leech blood?

[silent matrix]

Scorched

[paper nimbus]

aberration is super fun imo

[quartz kraken]

my base is kesler inlet and I'm all the way down in gloomy coast still a little bit to go

[ivory cradle]

Extinction most helpful

[paper nimbus]

ext is also really fun, havent tried SE yet

[lone osprey]

scorched and aberration seem fun and im torn

[quartz kraken]

my phone always puts done instead of some😂

[silent matrix]

It's easy once you find some water lol

[silent matrix]

Lol

[lone osprey]

im not gonna bother with extinction i dont like it a lot idk why

[silent matrix]

Never really played it so idk what it's like

[lavish current]

anyone can give me a guide for single player setting

[unborn marten]

Let’s go

[silent matrix]

Hang on

[quartz kraken]

I stopped to smelt the metal everything gathered so I can either repair my armor or make allo saddle unsure which ATM

[unborn marten]

Plesiosaur

[lavish current]

@silent matrix thx

[lone osprey]

ah i think ill go for se

honestly this game has problems but the soundtrack isnt one of em oml its amazing

[tough yarrow]

Gareth Coker the real mvp for the music

[silent matrix]

His yt is wooferwoof

[lone osprey]

the soundtrack of ark is a total masterpiece bruh

[quartz kraken]

also can we talk about the shear amount of Rex helmet skins I have in my inventory currently😂

[silent matrix]

It's his most recent ark setting one

[lavish current]

ok ill check thx

[silent matrix]

Kinda loud tho

[silent matrix]

Lmao

[quartz kraken]

11 currently and more Back at my base😂

[tough yarrow]

Loud is good

[silent matrix]

Not when your parents are watching TV lmao

[lone osprey]

honestly fr

[silent matrix]

Yeesh

[lone osprey]

but dear god i hope that mfs pillows are cold i hope he lives a long good life because the musics godly

[silent matrix]

Holy- I have about 200 feces in my monkeys inv

[lone osprey]

i

[lavish current]

does changing setting before loading a game work? or i need to start a new game ?

[lone osprey]

no it does work im pretty sure

[silent matrix]

Don't need to start a new game

[lavish current]

ty

[slim dove]

do trodons not kill or something? ive been knocked out by one and all its doing is running around me in circles and biting only when im about to wake up lol

[lone osprey]

theyre glitchy but ive died to one dozens of times i can assure u they do

[quartz kraken]

I can repair my armor and make a few saddles sweet

[silent matrix]

Ik because I messed up my melee damage for my dinos and now I'm dealing nearly 1000 damage

[slim dove]

yea they suck

[lone osprey]

also my graphics arent loading in right still im tryna just play li and cant idk what to do

[silent matrix]

Idk I've been killed by multiple

[quartz kraken]

I've been knocked out and murdered by them😂

[lone osprey]

the moment i load up lost island the ground starts glitching and the dinos dont load in right

troodons are so annoying bruh

[silent matrix]

Lmao

[slim dove]

like im so close to death n they wont hit me

[barren path]

@slim dove they sometimes only target conscious players, tamed troodons have it as an option

[slim dove]

wtf 😒😒

[silent matrix]

I found a fairly good first base spawn in lost island but troodons made it so I couldn't go far

[quartz kraken]

rip off I'm not mistaken I'm gonna be 5 away from 3 saddles😂

anyone have 5 metal I can borrow LOL

[silent matrix]

Eh

[lone osprey]

i remember in this one pvp server with a lotta beginner to mid game players where id go out at nights and kill their tames with a pack of troodons lmao

i never tamed em myself tho i avoid those little demon spawn

[silent matrix]

Rip

[quartz kraken]

I didn't expect to need metal so I didn't bring my anky so now I'm hunting rocks down with a pickaxe

[lone osprey]

considering how deadly they are it shocked me how underused kentros are tbh

[slim dove]

ok they killed me, lets go.

[silent matrix]

Lol

[lone osprey]

troodons?

[silent matrix]

Go for river rocks

[quartz kraken]

I'm on Lost island btw😂 I haven't seen many

[slim dove]

ye, took them a good min to kill

[silent matrix]

Where you at?

[quartz kraken]

RN at gloomy coast

[sullen storm]

Is this update mainly for lost island

[silent matrix]

No clue where that is

Ive been spending most of my time in redwoods because I'm doing mass breeding for my monke

[quartz kraken]

it's next to swamp or leads into it if I follow this stream

[lone osprey]

why are amars so mf annoying to tame bruh

[silent matrix]

Ah

[lone osprey]

its so painfully annoying the hunt mechanic thing

[silent matrix]

Get a trap

[slim dove]

how can u get stone quick?

[silent matrix]

Doedic

Or turn harvest amount up

[quartz kraken]

I think I have enough now

[silent matrix]

Lol

[quartz kraken]

241 Flint later😂

[silent matrix]

Yeesh

[quartz kraken]

or well some I already had tbh

[silent matrix]

Make sparkpowder lol

[paper nimbus]

doedicurus

[lone osprey]

just get a doed

[slim dove]

does the island have them?

[lone osprey]

theyre easy to get

theres a lot in the redwoods

[silent matrix]

Or get a dinopithecus and pump it's weight up

[silent matrix]

All maps have them

[lone osprey]

and some spawn north of red ob in a small patch of forest along the edge of the swamp i think?? or i might be mixing it up with ankies

[silent matrix]

Doedics spawn everywhere

[blazing glade]

red woods is dangerous

[lone osprey]

eh

[silent matrix]

Mainly in the air because of thylas

[hardy gate]

Yeah red woods and Volcanic

[paper nimbus]

mountains, snowy beaches, redwoods

[lone osprey]

i go there on an iguanadon for doed or megalo tames

early game

[silent matrix]

Just get like a direwolf or bear and your good lol

[lone osprey]

its not that bad if u watch for thylas

and microraptors arent honestly that deadly if u bring a decent combat mount

just outrun everything else ig

[hardy gate]

I hate the new monkey in lost island

[silent matrix]

Why?

[quartz kraken]

or multiple mounts like I bring with me😂

[lone osprey]

i take iguanadons for early game doed tames for the infinite stam

[hardy gate]

He killed my Baby giga

[silent matrix]

Rip

[lone osprey]

understandable

[hardy gate]

Is so overpower

[silent matrix]

What should I do with all my animals feces?

[quartz kraken]

so much sparkpowder I'm making😂

[silent matrix]

Lol

[quartz kraken]

in long-run it's barely any however

[silent matrix]

Yea

Especially if your gonna use guns

[hardy gate]

Put them in dungbeetle to make fertilizer

[silent matrix]

Don't need fertilizer

[quartz kraken]

eventually I'm lv92 and barely do guns😂

[silent matrix]

I have snow owl pellets

[silent matrix]

Lol. Guns are useful for certain things tho

[hardy gate]

Ok

[quartz kraken]

ammo though constantly😂

[silent matrix]

Yea

It's sucks

[quartz kraken]

I need more fiber apparently I didn't realize this😂

[silent matrix]

Lol

That's easy to get tho

[paper nimbus]

hmm. the cycle repeats once more it seems

[silent matrix]

Lol

[strange wind]

i have too much fibre to know what to do with :S

[lone osprey]

for the island bosses would i be better off taking theris rexes or allos

[silent matrix]

Keep it

[quartz kraken]

but I didn't bring my scythe again i expected to farm leeches not fiber😂

[silent matrix]

Rex

[strange wind]

What is it good use for? fiber?

[silent matrix]

And a yuti

And maybe a daeodon

[paper nimbus]

why would you not just leave it on your hotbar? its not heavy

[quartz kraken]

because idk😂

[silent matrix]

Sometimes you have too much stuff in your hotbar

[quartz kraken]

besides pegos idk

[lone osprey]

oh yeah

whenever i play on the island i instantly try lvling up go for an iguanadon and tame a daedon it usually works relatively well

[silent matrix]

Lol

[lone osprey]

half the time the iguanadon survives

[silent matrix]

Should I play gen 1 or keep breeding my dinopithecus?

[quartz kraken]

I'm 1 ingot over for the 3 allo saddles perfect😂

[silent matrix]

The luck

[paper nimbus]

oh allos are fun

[silent matrix]

They do anything special? Never tamed one

[paper nimbus]

nope, basically XXXXL raptors. pack buff, bleed, decent health and dmg

[silent matrix]

Oh

[quartz kraken]

pack leader does I guess growl idk what you'd call that😂 for pack buff

[silent matrix]

So in other words just a little better than a rex

[lone osprey]

gen 1 for the giggles

[silent matrix]

Lol

Yea it says the ocean is hard

[celest patio]

allos are really really fun, especially if you have a pack leader, they have special abilities

[lone osprey]

oddly enough allos are better then raptors in every way but i still love raptors sm

raptors have horrible health tho

[quartz kraken]

I mainly made the saddles for defense lol

[celest patio]

i have a really good pack leader allo which does like 500 dmg so you should get an allo (difficulty is 0.7 btw)

[blazing glade]

what abilities

[celest patio]

it can gnash (it bleeds the enemy) and roar (scares some dinos away)

[quartz kraken]

mines difficulty 0.2 I think as default

[celest patio]

0.7 difficulty is really good if you want overpowered dinos

[silent matrix]

My default if 1.0

[finite bone]

I just want to figure out what and how to breed to beat the Gamma and get some tek, these crappy troughs are killing me

[quartz kraken]

I also got these 3 low level as well below 10

[celest patio]

i also added a few stuff to the config folder which increases dino level caps

[celest patio]

allos also have really low attack cd so you can literally stunlock a dino

[quartz kraken]

wait your default is different? or you changed it to that?

[blazing glade]

i have a squad

[silent matrix]

Different

[blazing glade]

of allos and i want to take it to boss fight

[celest patio]

i think he meant 0.1

[silent matrix]

Never need to change it

[silent matrix]

No

It's always 1.0

[celest patio]

i highly recommend leveling it up a lot, especially if you have a higher level cap

[celest patio]

odd

it’s 0.1 by default for me but i changed it to 0.7

[quartz kraken]

I never changed mine and it's default 0.2 I even rehit default before starting lost island

[blazing glade]

ill take it on a hunting spree

[quartz kraken]

Blue stego 😂

[finite bone]

0.2 is the default

[celest patio]

weird

[blazing glade]

but where should i take it to

[celest patio]

i recommend brontos and diplos, whatever is a high level, usually i find a lot of level 400+ brontos in chalk hills (valguero)

[finite bone]

At least according to https://ark.fandom.com/wiki/Server_configuration and https://ark.fandom.com/wiki/Difficulty

[celest patio]

i see

mine might have been 0.2 but i probably did 0.1 because i thought it would be hard

[finite bone]

0.2 and 4.0 is the standard for the center and island but 0.2 and 5.0 are the new default standard for official servers

[silent matrix]

Do y'all swim really fast on gen 1?

Are ferox good?

[celest patio]

4.0?!

5.0?!?! what the hell boi

[blazing glade]

ok valguero it is

[finite bone]

Difficulty is calculated by 2 stats, DifficultyOffset is just one of them

[paper nimbus]

thats how you get 150s

[blazing glade]

can also get deidon eggs

[celest patio]

wait wait wait

it’s fine if you dont go to val

[celest sail]

aye how long have servers been down

[celest patio]

you can just kill whatever is high level on your map

[celest patio]

idk

[quartz kraken]

is there any Dino that's best at leech blood gathering?

[finite bone]

?OverrideOfficialDifficulty=5.0
DifficultyOffset=1.0

Difficulty Value = DifficultyOffset * (Official Difficulty - 0.5) + 0.5
Max Dino level = Difficulty Value * 30

Max dino level = 150

[blazing glade]

but im in a bad place on rag

[celest patio]

uh ok

[celest patio]

i dont think you can transport dinos to another map tho

[blazing glade]

live very near the volcano next to the wyverns trench

[blazing glade]

i cant?

[celest patio]

yeah you can only save your character then download it into another map

[paper nimbus]

you can

[celest patio]

WHAT

i wanna know how

[blazing glade]

yea how do u not know

[finite bone]

You can upload your dinos at supply depots and obelisks

[celest patio]

how do i do it

do i just bring the dino there

[blazing glade]

yk so much about allos but didnt know u can transfer?

[quartz kraken]

I don't think this is healthy😂

[celest patio]

i’ve only been playing for a week

[blazing glade]

i like how the link just disappears

[quartz kraken]

so my argy got a leech correct

[blazing glade]

how tf do u know so much about the game one week in

[finite bone]

Ok links not allowed; Look for Ark: Survival Evolved | How To Upload And Download Dinos | Character Transfer by Noktakk on Youtube

[quartz kraken]

and it's precisely on his eye😂

[silent matrix]

Bruh, I just got a ascendent hazard helmet

[blazing glade]

i also recently join like a 1-2 months ago

[celest patio]

i’ve watched a lot of it before i even got it

[celest patio]

ok

[blazing glade]

bro do u not watch raids, they go to every map get crystal wyverns griffins and find a very good base to settle

[finite bone]

@celest patio check out https://ark.fandom.com/wiki/Difficulty I imagine your max level dinos are like 30 right now?

[celest patio]

idk

[celest patio]

nope

[celest patio]

i dont think i have a max level right now but i know that i have a bunch of dinos

[finite bone]

Im talking about wild, not tamed

[grave needle]

I'd bump the difficulty up to at least 4, it's gonna be really hard to level your tames with such low level spawns

[celest patio]

i’ve seen wild dinos go up to 400+

i have my difficulty at 0.7

[grave needle]

That doesn't make sense

[celest patio]

and i might have messed with the config a bit

[grave needle]

On 0.7 max level is 21

[celest patio]

idk

[finite bone]

Assuming he didnt up his ?OverrideOfficialDifficulty=5.0

[celest patio]

i dont know what that is

[finite bone]

7.0 would produce 210s

in the normal difficulty override

[grave needle]

Just FYI, 5 and 6 are considered "standard" difficulties. I'd try 5

[celest patio]

i just pasted in some code into the config folder because some yt girl said if you paste it in you get a higher level cap

[grave needle]

Oh yeah that'll do it

[finite bone]

yeeeep

[grave needle]

So you're probably not actually on 0.7

[celest patio]

it said it would increase my TAMED dino level cap so i could spend some more points into skills

[grave needle]

Check your .ini files for overrides and we can help you tweak it to what you want

[celest patio]

i didn’t know it would increase wild dino cap

[celest patio]

im fine right now, i’ll let you guys know if i want even higher levels

[grave needle]

Yeah what you thought it would do doesn't exist. Post taming, you can add 88 levels

[celest patio]

wdym it doesn’t exist

[grave needle]

There's no setting to increase the amount you can level them up after taming

It's 88 levels

[celest patio]

well i saw the video and she was able to level up to like 250 levels or something

really odd

[finite bone]

OverrideMaxExperiencePointsDino=<value> increases max level cap

[onyx harness]

Is there any method to prevent my pet dinosaur from killing other wild dinosaurs?

[grave needle]

Yep, tamed max is (wild maximum * 1.5 - 1) + 88 post-tame levels+ 40 mut levels(you can technically go higher through cheesing but 40 is the intended cap)

[grave needle]

Do you want it to only attack them if one of yours gets hit, or not fight at all

[celest patio]

wait that’s the code i pasted in

i think

[finite bone]

Im not sure the limitations, just tossing it out there

[celest patio]

yeah that’s one of the code lines i pasted in

i’ll send you a pic later, im currently on my phone rn

[quartz kraken]

also I named my Rex pretty much after Dexter's laboratory show😂

[finite bone]

@celest patio @ me and we can lower your wild dino levels if you like

[celest patio]

i’d probably want it higher later

but ok

[finite bone]

Can do that too

[grave needle]

Yeah it's counterintuitive but higher is easier in the long run

[celest patio]

alright i’ll notify you when i need it

[onyx harness]

Just attack only the hostile one, Idk if there is setting to make my pet dinosaur knock them out instead of killing so I can tame those dinosaurs

[grave needle]

Nope, can't have em knock em out. Only a few deal torpor and they'll just go until it's killed. If you want it to only defend you and your tames but never pick fights, set its aggression to neutral

[quartz kraken]

I named the Rex Rexter

[onyx harness]

Aight thx

[grave needle]

Np

Also thanks a lot for getting that damn song stuck in my head

[quartz kraken]

what song

[grave needle]

Rasputin lol

[celest patio]

how

[onyx harness]

Lol

[grave needle]

Their name lol

[celest patio]

oh i see

[onyx harness]

Dw man, it struck in my head either

[celest patio]

can sarcos normally lunge or does it have to be a pack leader to lunge?

[grave needle]

They always can

[finite bone]

So, with 150 dinos and max 88 tamed levels; whats the suggestion of team comp for gamma dinopithecus king?

[grave needle]

I haven't done it yet, but I've seen mutated Dinopithecus and a good shotty work

[long flicker]

always can, no such things as packs in sarcos

[quartz kraken]

I might be taming a lv19 stego because it's color😂

[long flicker]

this is da wae

[grave needle]

Hell yeah, it'll still be useful even at the low level

[finite bone]

I saw a guy do 6 stegos and a mana, but I am not insane

[quartz kraken]

it's blue how can I not

[long flicker]

it'd work with mutated ones

[long flicker]

you can not not

[finite bone]

Its a YT video, fun stuff to watch for sure

[grave needle]

I've had to stop myself from taming every tek stego I see

[quartz kraken]

there's also a para because it's colors😂

[finite bone]

I murder them for that sweet sweet electronics board

[long flicker]

as I said
this is da wae

[grave needle]

I do this with every tek Para I see. Honestly I feel like that's a super OP thing to have in the game, just tosses you what would otherwise be some pretty difficult resources

[finite bone]

I made my home at the waterfalls and there are 2 pods that spawn TONS of leeches... My chitin is BROKEN so I totally understand. The stegos also spawn quite frequently around

[grave needle]

Oh God lol

[long flicker]

not as difficult once you have proper farming methods set up

[finite bone]

When I say tons of leeches, I mean I fly my arg to group them and take out my machop and get 3k chitin in a single run of like maybe 1-2min

[hazy sleet]

I just start and i find some spino wow

[grave needle]

Right, that's what I mean. Instead of going through that progression you just jump straight to easy access

[long flicker]

angler fish in a pearl rich region, and a good method of getting metal, and you'll never need electronics again

[long flicker]

haha swamp cave go brr

[quartz kraken]

and a dimorphadon and possibly a Moschops😂

[long flicker]

it's not nearly as reliable or consistent, so idrm

[finite bone]

I have an army of sino because of it lol

[grave needle]

For sure, it definitely stops being particularly useful later on

[long flicker]

I come out with 25k chitin from the swamp cave btw

[long flicker]

thing is, I barely need electronics in early game in the first place, just a couple fridges and a generator lol

but I really need them for the ele dust, my soul balls are crafted using crystal and ele dust

[raven coral]

Is it safe here

[long flicker]

wdym

[quartz kraken]

imma share the dimorphadon

[long flicker]

oh general is shitting itself isn't it

[raven coral]

In general there is 1 min slowmode

[quartz kraken]

it's ark it's never safe😂

[long flicker]

as usual

[finite bone]

How do you like the soul mod? feels a bit broken to me but also like really nice lol

[long flicker]

it's completely configurable, so not the most broken thing

[finite bone]

I have SO MANY cryos

[grave needle]

What do they do?

[long flicker]

stackable cryopods that you can shoot out of a gun

you can change everything though, like the gun's range and shit

[quartz kraken]

I wish they'd stack on Xbox because no mod to make it😂

[grave needle]

Ah yeah. If it requires ele dust it can't be very broken, considering how easy cryos are to get anyway

[finite bone]

true

[long flicker]

it requires nothing but crystal by default but I didn't like that so I added some ele dust

[static fjord]

element dust isnt hard to get though.

[long flicker]

which is still pretty broken tbh

[finite bone]

oh yeah, thats definitely broken lol

[celest patio]

i see

[long flicker]

I was thinking of adding something stupid

[celest patio]

thanks man

[long flicker]

idk, angler gel or something

[static fjord]

imo should make it full element, soul balls could be a tek tier thing to make them feel less broken.

[grave needle]

Oh is that mod what syntac uses?

[tepid cloak]

Is there a reason I can’t craft a toilet? I learned the engram. Have all materials and it won’t let me craft it.

[long flicker]

absolutely not

[quartz kraken]

sarcos I love sarcos 😂

[finite bone]

Make them crafted with Alpha Rex trophies

[long flicker]

do you want me to never be able to breed lmao

[raven coral]

In smithy and try fabricator

I dunno where's it's crafted

[finite bone]

I am so stuck on breeding right now, I want you to feel my pain

[quartz kraken]

it should say on the engram where to craft

[tepid cloak]

It doesn't and shows in the regular crafting window

[quartz kraken]

if doesn't then inventory

[long flicker]

no, I stopped feeling that pain when I got DS, I Don't want to feel the pain again

[quartz kraken]

glitched then

[static fjord]

thats what they all say

[grave needle]

For a second I thought you meant Nintendo DS

[long flicker]

though I started using soul balls very soon after incubator was released so I never got to use it

[grave needle]

Can you imagine ark on that

[long flicker]

probably really shit

[static fjord]

"its not that broken" they say after making their soulballs with 5 crystal and some other resource that isnt a big factor and automating the entire breeding process.

[finite bone]

this is my first foray in to the game so doing mostly vanilla; we added S+ but are not using advanced buildings

[raven coral]

Ark on 3ds doesn't sound very optimized

[long flicker]

hey, mine is broken, but it's configurable to make it not broken

[prisma sand]

Wtf are soul balls

[quartz kraken]

I bet it could've worked on a Gameboy😂 if it was that level of development or whatever lol
or get close enough to say hey dino game

[long flicker]

I could make soul gun not exist, or have awful range or smth

[grave needle]

How does it automate breeding?

[long flicker]

auto pick up eggs and new borns

[static fjord]

i think its a pretty odd argument to say "but its configurable" when its clear a majority of the users dont make it not broken with settings.

[dusk lotus]

If you can trap 2 deinonychus male and female near a nest to farm there egg are wyvern the same?

[finite bone]

The amount of lost young I have had... Get distracted by a metal node you want to mine with your magma and your args get fat.....

[grave needle]

Let people play how they want lol. One of the best things about ark is that you can make completely different games out of it

[long flicker]

well then
the majority uses it in a broken way
but it doesn't have to be broken

[long flicker]

I know very few people who do configure the soul trap prices or levels

[static fjord]

im not saying "dont use soulballs" in this argument, im saying that soulballs are unbalanced if you dont configure it.

[quartz kraken]

I wanna get myself a magmasaur TBH and also get more storage dinos😂 bring some brontos next time LOL

[grave needle]

It's apparently a mod Matt

[prisma sand]

Why did that get deleted? I said the same thing I said earlier

[grave needle]

Caps lock

[long flicker]

I made my soul terminal take angler gel, (gonna change it to bio toxin probably) and I made it level 88, same level for soul gun

[finite bone]

I made a spawn place outside their cave and do death runs, I now have 3... really bad levels though

[long flicker]

my soul traps are level 55 or something, the same level as cryopods, but they aren't as expensive since they're used in bulk

[long flicker]

might as well make good use of the stacking feature

[finite bone]

4, 18, and 20 were the ones I found... After I killed 2 level 150s that apparently didnt want to breed

[long flicker]

I can agree with that, I believe it's meant to be configured by default but literally no one else has agreed to that so far

[grave needle]

I mean if people wanted the result of a mod to be exactly like the game without the mod, they wouldn't download the mod. It's ok to introduce new mechanics for fun lol

[long flicker]

changing to make it less unbalanced isn't "removing the features of the mod" tho

[grave needle]

Right, I just mean if you want the exact same balance as before, you wouldn't use mods at all

[static fjord]

i mean i didnt say remove all the features, i recommended making it tek tier or take a hard to get resource to make it feel less unbalanced.

[grave needle]

So idk why imbalance is a deterrent from a mod, that's kinda the point. Change things up

[static fjord]

yeah but if its unbalanced it could change things up in a differet way, not just in soulball case.

[long flicker]

bio toxin

[grave needle]

Biotoxin would be a cool idea there

[long flicker]

I'm thinking of making soul balls take anglergel and soul terminal take bio toxin

[tepid cloak]

Ok successfully made the toilet. Successfully relieved self.

[long flicker]

maybe absorbant substrate somewhere too

[static fjord]

idk bio toxin doesnt seem that hard to get.

[grave needle]

It's hard to get enormous quantities

[static fjord]

absorbant substrate is a good idea.

[long flicker]

it's not hard to get, just doesn't have that many other uses so it gives incentive to go and fucking get some

[finite bone]

Maewing breaks collecting biotoxen completely

[grave needle]

Because the number of cnidaria is limited

[long flicker]

you know, sine I Never use darts

[prisma sand]

How?

[static fjord]

they sure are limited when you arent looking for them but just go to the ocean without looking for them.

[finite bone]

gather multiplier and huge range on belly flop. You literally rake it in

[grave needle]

Lmao good point, forgot the ark sadism factor

[static fjord]

like, go mosa tamin and by the end of 20 minutes you'll get destroyed by 592 cnidarias.

[prisma sand]

They don’t get stunlocked and die?

[long flicker]

lol fair enough
while soul terminal being tek tier is balanced, soul balls themselves are just better cryopods so I Don't think those should be tek tier

soul gun could also be tek tier

[static fjord]

i can agree with just the balls not being tek tier.

[grave needle]

If you're looking to change it maybe just take the original cryopod recipe and add one decently rare material to account for them just being better cryopods

[long flicker]

I don't make them tek tier because I'm too used to using them now :P

[static fjord]

but they arent just better cryopods.

[junior mirage]

Damn Reapers are so overpowered. This is bullshit

[finite bone]

You get it from a red mushroom, never been stunned doing it

[long flicker]

they were talking about ab mushrooms lol, not cnidaria

[prisma sand]

Ahh

[long flicker]

without soul terminals or soul guns, they are

[grave needle]

What do the terminals do?

[static fjord]

how do you even find enough red mushrooms, the ones that hallucinate you arent that commonl

[long flicker]

automate everything

[long flicker]

there's like 1 or 2 per patch, isn't there

[static fjord]

idk.

[silent matrix]

Do you swim really fast in gen 1 waters?

[static fjord]

its a boost i believe but not that fast.

[long flicker]

collection of fert eggs, unfert eggs, poop, beetle conversion, achatina paste, and anything else passively generated not including gachas

[grave needle]

Ah yeah that's definitely a lot

[snow haven]

So what’s up with PlayStation?

[tepid cloak]

Only thing wrong with the toilet (and I don't know if it's just me) but it says I got 2 fertilizers but only 1 in my inventory. Is that just me?

[long flicker]

I only use the fert egg collection

[static fjord]

no, i get that too.

[long flicker]

and newborn auto trapping too ig

[junior mirage]

wow oneshotted with 500 health from a reaper yeah that makes sense

[grave needle]

So if the automation comes from the terminals and shooting comes from the gun, the only difference between the soul ball item on its own and a cryopod is that its stackable?

[static fjord]

dont they also cost just crystal and made in your inventory?

[long flicker]

and that it shows way more information, and is stackable

[grave needle]

We're putting the cost aside here, that's what he's trying to figure out

[static fjord]

whats he trying to figure out?

[long flicker]

by default they're also level 1

[grave needle]

How much they should cost to craft lol

That's what we've been talking about

[static fjord]

whats level 0????

[long flicker]

why I say this

[long flicker]

a typo????????

[static fjord]

oh.

[normal yacht]

Hi

My name is toby

[long flicker]

hello, toby

[normal yacht]

Hi ?

Ur name is?

[long flicker]

bobster

[normal yacht]

Hi bobster

[grave needle]

Ah ok. So if you made them like level 65, and added something to the cryopod cost, I think you'd be pretty close to a fair price. It sounds like the terminal is what makes them OP, so it should be like the most expensive thing in the game, but the balls on their own don't sound particularly OP beyond the level of cryopods

[static fjord]

i agree.

[long flicker]

indeed

[long flicker]

this is the problem

[static fjord]

the terminal and gun could be locked behind any boss like the tek rep, if thats even possible but the balls can just be adjusted to a higher level and cost some other resource.

[long flicker]

if you don't do it before you start using the mod, then you're never doing it

[long flicker]

it's not possible, but you can make it level 110 or something that you only get after ascension

[static fjord]

that works.

111, just so you cant chibi cheese it.

[grave needle]

I think that would make sense for the terminal

[long flicker]

eh, chibi isn't really cheese

[grave needle]

Maybe gun at 85

[long flicker]

it'd take a lot of effort to get chibi to level 5 lol

[static fjord]

i only said it for alliteration

[long flicker]

fair enough

[finite bone]

chibi cheese?

[grave needle]

Like use a chibi to gain those extra 5 levels, and circumvent the intended boss requirement

[finite bone]

Ah, mines level 3, not too hard lol

[celest patio]

why cant i pick up s+ structures

[finite bone]

wasnt aware they went above 5

[long flicker]

the config to pick up structures is in vanilla

[celest patio]

how

[long flicker]

they don't

AlwaysAllowStructurePickup=True put this in GUS.ini under server settings

[finite bone]

Best ini change in this game I ever made

[long flicker]

it's so handy lol

[static fjord]

they dont end at 6?

[long flicker]

wait, right, level 1 is 0 points

[static fjord]

since level 1 is done for you, just without the extra level you get yourself.

[finite bone]

the ONLY reason I needed it was there is a sweet plateau near my waterfall that I cleared out, but it it is at a grade and after laying 4 foundations you have to use pillars. I wasted SO MANY foundations before I enabled it lol

[static fjord]

its like no xp to get to level 2 but the xp curve from 2 and 3 is insane.

[long flicker]

I hear people level them in purple OSD's and shit

just take an ice titan and left click a lot

[static fjord]

i kill whatever alphas i find but im always like "oh cool an alpha, im going to get the xp" but not "oh cool an alpha i better equip my chibi"

[finite bone]

"just take an ice titan" lol

[static fjord]

i forget to put the chibi on, goodbye xp.

[long flicker]

mini HLNA should count as a chibi

I always have her on, and you can put her on with a shield and shit

[finite bone]

you could just ramp down the difficulty of a server and wreck low level alphas...

[static fjord]

okay but tek shoulder cannon,

[long flicker]

higher level alphas give more xp

[static fjord]

yeah but low level alphas will also drop low level xp.

[long flicker]

no point in ramping down difficulty

[static fjord]

ram up the difficulty and pray you find a level 1500 alpha rex and secure the kill.

[finite bone]

I guess it depends how bad the spike at level 3 is

[long flicker]

lmao

going above 600 is said to be not a very good idea

[static fjord]

the spike isnt that bad from 2 to 3 but overall the xp you need to get to 6 is insane.

[long flicker]

basically
50 thousand trillion billion

[static fjord]

yeah only because im going to get an absolutely monstrous amount of xp.

[paper nimbus]

hai bobster

[long flicker]

hello, sandwich

[paper nimbus]

i decided to take a short break of aberration and tried out a bit of ext

[long flicker]

noice

go get gachas immediately 🔫

[paper nimbus]

i got an enforcer and a gasbags, which is, next to gliding and climbing picks, some of the most fun i've had in ARK

[paper nimbus]

p-please i haven't even gotten a base yet!

[long flicker]

no, gacha or nuthin'

[final frigate]

any maps you suggest? i have everything i want to play a cannon map

[long flicker]

go craft some cannons first

[static fjord]

scorched earth.

[long flicker]

but, all of them

[paper nimbus]

aberration is a really unique map that i like a lot

ext is also very fun so far

[long flicker]

they're all good

[sullen storm]

Servers back?

[final frigate]

i hate gen

[long flicker]

ever played on it?

[final frigate]

bog is NOT easy

[paper nimbus]

havent tried gen yet because didnt buy it

[static fjord]

why? its nice.

yes thats the point.

[long flicker]

so.... you hate the map because spawn locations lie?

[static fjord]

its meant to be a challenging map, ocean is easy though.

[final frigate]

gen has no mercy

[long flicker]

being hard is a GOOD thing most of the time

[static fjord]

thats what makes it fun.

[paper nimbus]

i didnt buy it because i pretty much knew my PC wouldnt be able to handle it

[paper nimbus]

same with aberrtion tbh

[final frigate]

not when you go for a swim trying to get a rock and die.

[static fjord]

i dont find aberration challenging tbh.

[paper nimbus]

welp time to grind for greenhouse structures and find out where the heck they spawn

[long flicker]

it's challenging when you don't know what you're doing

[long flicker]

you can use plant Y traps too

[static fjord]

i did a challenge on SE and ab and i could barely tell i was even doing one in ab.

[final frigate]

first map i got was ex

[paper nimbus]

AB and SE are a bit similar in early game: get massacered by raptors and othe nasties till you gte lucky and set up a base before dying again

[static fjord]

true, but thats the case for every map except gen 2.

[hard lichen]

Noo

[paper nimbus]

really? i found early game AB super challenging

[hard lichen]

The mute mee

[long flicker]

nah, some maps are more unforgiving to unknowing players

[hard lichen]

😂😂

[final frigate]

gen 2 ez

[fiery lark]

It is

[muted shell]

where servers go on ps4?

[paper nimbus]

i dont recommend starting ARK on AB 🤣

[muted shell]

they are all gone im so confused?

[static fjord]

early game ab is difficult, but the difficulty goes away too fast in mid game in my opinion.

[hard lichen]

[final frigate]

AAAAAAAAAAAAA scorpion

[static fjord]

one of the main reasons i found SE a lot harder than ab was simply microraptors.

[hard lichen]

5x raising 2x hexagons
3.5x breeding 5x harvesting
And 5x imprint @heavy cedar

[paper nimbus]

and thinking that someone will care

[final frigate]

plant tounge

[muted shell]

does anyone know why all servers are down on playstation????

[long flicker]

could you not

[long flicker]

nope, but they should be working on fixing it right now

[static fjord]

aberration basically has no dismounters that can consistently dismount you, so like.

[hard lichen]

Come on lets get that x5😂

[long flicker]

ahem raptors, ravagers

[muted shell]

how long u think?

[static fjord]

since when did ravagers dismount.

[long flicker]

ravagers don't dismount but they still destroy

[final frigate]

the scorpions are stalking me what do i do

[long flicker]

massacre them

[ocean hemlock]

Abberation is the source of the edgy lanky crabs, I'd call that a challenge
Dug up the game.ini file for the first time to prevent them from spawning in SE

[static fjord]

and i mean consistently, microraptors have the speed to instantly make you go into alert mode but raptors arent the same imo.

[hard lichen]

5x raising 2x hexagons
3.5x breeding 5x harvesting
And 5x imprint @heavy cedar

[ionic mirage]

Yo so was the patch notes in #735188572688089229 addressing the messed up mesh collision thing

[final frigate]

i have a stone pic

[paper nimbus]

ab and se are kinda similar in early game, in more ways than i thought

[final frigate]

AAAA DRUGS

[long flicker]

could you fuck off already

[ionic mirage]

Oh hey bobster

[paper nimbus]

hard terrain, raptors n' other nasties, no flyers for the most part

[muted shell]

shut up

[ionic mirage]

Yo can anyone hep clear that up for me

[final frigate]

i have noglin chibi

[long flicker]

idk, I don't play on console

[hard lichen]

Na

[ionic mirage]

Ah okay thank you tho

[finite bone]

@long flicker you play solo or teamed up?

[long flicker]

singleplayer

[static fjord]

yeah but mid game.

[hard lichen]

5x raising 2x hexagons
3.5x breeding 5x harvesting
And 5x imprint @heavy cedar

[paper nimbus]

y'know they don't get pinned right?

[ionic mirage]

If you get a answer by any chance you mind pinging me about it? @long flicker

[ocean hemlock]

My first go at Abberation was probably the shortest life I've ever managed
Got tricked into spawning in the "Easiest" area and got mauled by raptors before I'd even fully processed where I was

[ionic mirage]

Also why does the sandwich guy keep spamming that

[static fjord]

thats portal for you.

[paper nimbus]

me? i didnt spam nothing

[hard lichen]

F😂😂

[paper nimbus]

same here

[ionic mirage]

Oh shit sorry my bad i meant little ninja man

[ocean hemlock]

Meanwhile SE
Never have I felt so hopeless in a survival game before lol

[finite bone]

It has such a great blend of hopeless survival with murderous pokemon

[static fjord]

what.

[ocean hemlock]

Just aimlessly wandering around trying to find something as the sun itself puts a timer on my life

[paper nimbus]

i think im gonna try SE, sometime

[static fjord]

dont forget going from overheating and then freezing in any water, and then getting jumped by a kapro 2 seconds later.

[ocean hemlock]

In particular I was in desperate need of a rock
Cuz I hadn't figured out the sand/rock pickups yet and couldn't find any normal rocks to make a pick with

[paper nimbus]

@long flicker so, what are enforcers good for? i made a lvl 79 one called Xenon and i've been using him to pick off low level corrupted dinos

[finite bone]

The desert biom of lost island is bad enough, got jumped by 4 titana boa, 3 scorps, and 2 mantis outa nowhere

[long flicker]

good for travel, can carry a lot
weak as shit

[static fjord]

transport.

[finite bone]

An entire map of that shit will end me

[static fjord]

i haven't even seen lost island, i got bored too fast.

[finite bone]

Really? Im pretty hooked on it

[ocean hemlock]

Things are surprisingly tame in the desert, I've found
Most I've had to worry about was saber cats and the occasional warthog thing

[paper nimbus]

yeah, im planning on doing a metal run with him. ive been using the 4x corrupt creature dmg to farm a handful of nodules, but im avoiding anything high level

[static fjord]

i played on it once but it felt like the island so i just went back to the usual.

was too lazy to transfer any gear to tame the new dinos either.

[final frigate]

mini healna go brrrr

[ocean hemlock]

Once you get past the hurdle of finding some water and then play relatively passively

First tool I ended up crafting on that run was a club cuz it was the only one that didn't require stone/flint lol

[finite bone]

I have a pretty great managarmr so travel and escaping fights is pretty trivial now

[static fjord]

microraptors though.

you go from exploring a mountain for a dino to exploring a mountain for your probably dead dino because you got stunned near 3 carnos.

[weary urchin]

anyone who can tell me how to properly stack mutations so my super raptor dosent become a super craptor?

[static fjord]

watch syntacs mutation video

[weary urchin]

i have

but im stupid

[paper nimbus]

fr one knocked me off my enforcer while fighting a raptor pack

[static fjord]

okay so basically.

[paper nimbus]

im listening

[static fjord]

you take a bunch of unmutated females, breed it all with a single male then when you get, say a melee mutation then you raise it and replace the old male, if you get a mutated female then breed it with an unmutated male so you get a mutated male, and replace the old male again.

[weary urchin]

thats exacly what i did minus the replacing the male and or female part

[static fjord]

if you want to mutate several stats, like hp, then you make another male with unmutated females and do the same process again, dont combine the hp and melee mutations until the end.

[ocean hemlock]

I feel like there's something to be said here
I'm not gonna be the one to say it but

[paper nimbus]

oof. im not doing muts anytime soon. doesnt sound fun

[weary urchin]

soooo basically i wanna mutate several stats and just to dip my toe in the water im doing weight first as its not the most important raptor stat

i have 3 males and 3 females with weight muts all from the same father

[static fjord]

the females cant be mutated otherwise it messes everything up.

[ocean hemlock]

The most taming I ever did was trying to maintain an army of scorpions to defend my dung beetles while I was based in a cave
It seemed like no matter how many I gathered tho, the swarms of enemy titanboas and those armor-killing centipede things would leave me with next to nothing every single time I left to do something

[paper nimbus]

why would you build in the dangerous parts of caves

[static fjord]

looks cool.

[paper nimbus]

"love the view"

[static fjord]

as he sits on the respawn menu.

[paper nimbus]

or as he is getting eaten alive by swarms of araneo

[ocean hemlock]

Easy access to more advanced materials, defensible, day/night, weather and most importantly those damn birds stealing my stuff become a non-issue

[weary urchin]

i have a mountain of raptors with muts. but still i think im just gonna take your advice, wipe most of the raptors, restart and see if i end up stuck again

keeping the color muts tho

[paper nimbus]

you could build in the mouth of the cave so there are no creatures, or in calm areas of the cave

[static fjord]

if you end up with a raptor that has, say, 4 mutations but the ancestry line says it has more then you messed something up too.

[long flicker]

yep, I've almost done it while breeding hte perfect pair once

[static fjord]

only when youre combining the final products of each stat is when its okay for the game to say you have like 3000 mutations in the ancestry line when you actually have like 40.

[ocean hemlock]

Honestly the area I chose was relatively calm
You know that cave with the Hunter artifact or whatever in the south? I chose that one, specifically focusing my presence in the big open room with the two pools of water and raised flat area

There were still a couple places baddies could spawn tho so had to watch for that

[weary urchin]

getting late rn so ill have to struggle to mutate raptors tomorrow

[paper nimbus]

i would've built in the small room you get RIGHT before you decend into the actual cave witht the dangers

[static fjord]

the problem is that it is a small room.

you want as much cave space as possible to hold as many dinos and stuff.

[paper nimbus]

big enough for a mortar and pestle, smithy, a couple forges, boxes

[ocean hemlock]

Managed to shove an entire lighthouse from this one mod into the room I picked lol

[static fjord]

yeah but can you fit the industrial tier stuff.

[barren copper]

I love how shit still takes hours after 6 years of development and me having 10k hours in this shit

[paper nimbus]

ok.

[silent matrix]

Can someone tell me where to join popular modded pvp ark servers??

[silent matrix]

hey wanna play on my server just me and u unleast you have frinde that wauld wanna join it has main mods such as primal fear and giai so if you wanna join dm me

[silent matrix]

Is there like a website where you can see all modded ark servers?

-___-

[quartz kraken]

so y'all recall I was talking about a para I tamed Because it's colors right?

[silent matrix]

tbh idek

[ocean hemlock]

Proud to admit to being a keepInventory scrub
I survive off a mod I have that allows for that

[near bolt]

you can breed a mutated female with an unmutated male and fix it

[static fjord]

yes thats what i said previously.

[static fjord]

only a few lines before.

[final frigate]

freaking drug plantds

please tell me how to tell the diffrent 😩

[static fjord]

the mushrooms in aberration?

[quartz kraken]

I had a pego steal the Paras cryopod minute ago😂 good thing everything was on neutral I got the pod back but SERIOUSLY why steal my cryopod that's got a dino in it

[paper nimbus]

what? narcoberries? LSD mushrooms? what are u talking about

[final frigate]

shoorms that get you high

[quartz kraken]

those ones

just be on a Dino doesn't effect then

[final frigate]

I barely have a base

[quartz kraken]

and they're pretty recognizable

[final frigate]

i have 4 thatch floors how do you suppose i get a dino?

im level 12

[quartz kraken]

moschops that's how

[paper nimbus]

they are red pointy mushrooms

[final frigate]

im sacraficing lystros

for safety

i got a glow stick stuck on my back free ligt

[quartz kraken]

saber died to Alpha carno 😭

so I reverted one of these days the games gonna punish me for exiting when I lose Dino's

[paper nimbus]

oof

[quartz kraken]

they've taken down an Alpha carno before I think this one was just a higher level lol
also got 3 allos 1 Rex 1 wolf and 1 argy

my attack force currently

[final frigate]

ab spoils me ,

ez crystal

[quartz kraken]

abberation punishes me easy deaths

but Gen 1 punished me more 😂

[final frigate]

FREAK

LSD SHROOM

tf i found 2 dead spinos

[silent matrix]

Can I teleport to beds on gen 1

[teal brook]

Is anyone playing ark right now on PlayStation?

[final frigate]

me

[gentle fog]

When are unofficial servers going up

[spare flare]

Hi?

[paper nimbus]

hi

[spare flare]

So yeah I’m new at ark and I never done online

[paper nimbus]

try singleplayer first in my opinion

[spare flare]

Ok

I’m guessing it’s salty online

[paper nimbus]

yes, and you basically have to dedicate your entire life to ARK

[silent matrix]

The fatal flaw I made in my youth. Choosing to play official servers because my big ego made me feel like playing on official meant some stamp of approval

[paper nimbus]

a lot of players seem to think playing official pvp is superior, even claiming its the only way to play ark

[silent matrix]

I've seen that

[spare flare]

Ok, also I’m trying to get the dlcs in ps4 do I get the season pass?

[silent matrix]

Official pve.

[paper nimbus]

ultimate surivior bundle i think its called

[silent matrix]

Because back then I was all hot headed making bold claims like "if you havent done it on official you havent really done it"

[spare flare]

Hmmm I see the bundle but since I have the hard disc already for original ark, I should start with season pass. I don’t wanna waste my saving money for a gaming laptop or pc

Is that ok? @paper nimbus

[paper nimbus]

season pass only gives you 3 of the 5 paid DLCs

[quartz kraken]

do all Alphas give the same Chibi XP? and if so how much per?

trying to figure out how many till I level up this Chibi🤔

[spare flare]

I’m guessing the other two are genesis 1 and 2

[vapid bison]

in terms of gathering natural polymer are higher power club better or are primitive clubs the best

[quartz kraken]

if I recall yes clubs be best I'd assume better tier gives more

[blazing glade]

what about swords

[quartz kraken]

I believe clubs were from my last look on dododex I believe clubs was best

I can check the app hang on

[spare flare]

Which ones will they give?

[quartz kraken]

both 4.9 stars

[quartz kraken]

the season does all but Genesis you need genesis pass or whatever for those 2

[spare flare]

Ok I’ll just get season for now and then genesis for the next two weeks

[quartz kraken]

I'm also thinning the herd of brontos once again😂

I swear the last island has way to many brontos

[wispy frigate]

Regular season pass gives scorched, ab and ext
Genesis season pass gives gen 1 and 2

Ultimate survivor gives all

[spare flare]

Got it thank you, wait what about the others like ragnarok

[wispy frigate]

Those are all free

Well, they technically do cost something

About 200 gigs of storage

Idk how much storage they actually take up

But its a lot, especially crystal isles

[quartz kraken]

what button do I press on Xbox to feed the horse once I'm on it?

to tame it wise

[worn charm]

Wtf there is only 2 servers on official ragnarok

[tardy eagle]

doees non dedicated have the singleplyer setting on

[quartz kraken]

non dedicated is single made multiplayer basically

[austere lichen]

What's y'all's favorite wyvern egg flyer?

Worded weird. But you guys know what I mean

[quartz kraken]

fire

attempting to tame horse with mejo berries😂

[wispy frigate]

Y

[silent matrix]

wyvern :)

[quartz kraken]

I figured it out I found another one and pressed Y this time currently at 10%

this boi WILL receive an ascendant saddle as a reward for being tamed😂

almost Messed it up lol

[final frigate]

ez organic poly

i stole the harvest from a spino vs a crab

[astral vapor]

You can find carrots in the ground near the broken structures in highlands on ragnarok to tame the nearby equus with, saves a ton of time compared to using berries

[quartz kraken]

I'm on Lost island though

I just never got around to farming😂

[astral vapor]

Ahh never mind can’t really transfer them over there yet

[quartz kraken]

besides I don't really care about effectiveness
but I would care for speediness😂

it really wants to go so far away from my Dino's doesn't it

[mental glen]

Harvesting any ground plant will give Rockcarrot seeds eventually on lost island I believe

[quartz kraken]

again
I just never got around to farming

I was slowly crafting greenhouse stuff but have up

gave

I want multiple plots narcos stims carrots potatoes and I forget the others the non berries

almost halfway through it 40%i pause to type so

[silent matrix]

On gen 1 can I teleport from biome to biome in beds?

[quartz kraken]

dunno probably not imma assume

[graceful crescent]

Hi

[quartz kraken]

welcome to pain😂
atleast for me it's pain of taming an equus

[graceful crescent]

Dw mate

I wanted a army of gigas and I did it

[quartz kraken]

I'm taming the horse without carrots I'm doing mejo berries😂

[graceful crescent]

Ohhhh

[wispy frigate]

Don’t see why not

[graceful crescent]

The pain

[silent matrix]

I mean like using hlna to teleport back to base

[quartz kraken]

and he keeps threatening to fall off this cliff😂

and I doubt I can still tame it in water

[graceful crescent]

I try to tame a horse but I keep getting knocked down

[quartz kraken]

feed while on it

and pray you don't mess up

[graceful crescent]

That's the think I get on it it push me of after 1sec

[quartz kraken]

you instantly feed use your feed button

for me it's Y

[celest patio]

for pc it's e

[sudden ember]

technically yes but you lose stuff in your inventory. It's better to use a teleporter or HLNA.

[quartz kraken]

bottom right says when to feed it basically

[silent matrix]

But can I use hlna to teleport to bases or do I need to spawn away from my base using it and risk getting killed

[quartz kraken]

probably risk idk I didn't last on it

[sudden ember]

HLNA will spawn you in random locations depending on North, Northeast, East, etc that you choose. Teleporters are best for teleporting base to base.

[pseudo night]

Yo who in rag pvp serv

[silent matrix]

Oh ok I can get some teleporters

Is it possible to live in the volcano on Genesis?

[brave jetty]

Have the servers even started to come back up yet?

[quartz kraken]

running low on mejos 😂

[sudden ember]

Not at all for me

[brave jetty]

Damn

[quartz kraken]

72%

I'm also not sure where my Dino's are and they be passive😂

[stray scaffold]

Dam ark

[quartz kraken]

oh no horse no 😂

a carno spawned nearby and he's trying to run close by it

[ocean hemlock]

Finally stumbled across a body of water that didn't have a Karkinos security force
Thank god for the eco's mod series, made setting up a base a lot quicker with its single-piece buildings

[quartz kraken]

yep it's definitely testing my nerves😂

I hate this horse 80 something and runs to it and gets sick on rock gee thanks for nothing

for reset to 0 so I left it to fend for itself I have to get back to my dinos

[final frigate]

lmfao my mother turned off the wi-fi via phone app so i just reset the wifi (im 17)

[paper nimbus]

use carrots next time

[silent matrix]

Minor inconvonecee that make you wanna

[quartz kraken]

if I didn't accidentally get off I would've had it sooner but still it spawned that carno

[final frigate]

i lost an hour of progress :') crashed when wifi was off

lost a sword , pike , crossbow and hide armour

[quartz kraken]

can't I just cage a horse and it still work the same? or needs to be fully open grounds

[silent matrix]

You can cage it if you can

[quartz kraken]

good next time I'm bringing it to my base or nearby with a building setup for it

wait gachas aren't on lost island😂 so I wasted points to learn and make the saddle
then again I was crafting anything at the time for XP

I didn't throw enough food on my basilo baby before I left apparently😂 I knew I forgot something lol

I didn't really need a 3rd anyways

anything that can out fly a wyvern without points into speed? or do I just try an oviraptor I'm already making plans to steal an egg apparently😂

[dapper gazelle]

We use a snow owl cause of the gliding affect ducking into trees and stuff

[quartz kraken]

never owned one before
