quick question
can a titanosaur win against a giga?
if not I might just take my basilos and cryo my squad and go past it
I can't tame a titano but still
servers are coming back up!!
Wtf is happening with the servers on ps as they been down for hrs
It's dumb asf that xbox and pc have no issues but yet ps always does

Why do astrocetus keep teleporting away when knocked
Yes but troodons way better
Offi or un

Knock it out fast as hell

i agree with your statement
Can stryders harvest ele shards on Crystal Iles?
Is the PlayStation barrier getting fix
What dinos can a raptor not pounce you off? Because raptors keep making my life horrible while caving
is there a way to re-enable beacon transfers in single player?
anything that they dont aggro on.
the front of a trike, and stegos
yo
good thing I’m a developer right guys? …guys?
🥸
Still ashamed there is no ancient trash panda
Also astonished that otters get to stay real world size
Haha I’m just teasing :)
Anyone who plays in asia
I’m easily teased, like duke nukem forever
I just thought of the most popular gameplay mechanic ever for ark: limited daily stamina that you have to watch ads to replenish or buy stamina packs for!
and if you want a higher cap you just buy a max booster for $20!
so innovative
if ark was made by EA
you can tame 3 dinos before you have to buy dino slots
wait yeah this is basically ark mobile
there's a 40 tame limit that you can only expand by paying money
Anyone who plays in asia on xbox/windows 10
if I had to guess, yes, a lot of people play in asia
wow, who woulc've thought
ikr, such a surprise
So I was just given like 100ish honey (someone was offering to whoever wanted it, said it was extra) but when I got it to my base I realized the spoil timer was like 10+years... Is it modded or glitched, and more importantly do I need to throw it out to avoid ban?
any benefit in planting narco's in large plots instead of smalls?
@grizzled pivot I haven't used any of it for anything but am sitting here with it like an idiot wondering if I can use it or need to dispose of
must be glitched, if you dont run any mods then i'd throw it out to be safe.
yes, large crop plots can hold more berries/crops than their smaller counterparts and hold more fertilizer and water so you dont need to check back often.
It's on official on PS4
if i have my irrigation from a river, i don't ever need to worry about enough water right?
as long as the pipes dont get destroyed, yes.
if its official i'd definitely get rid of it and ask the guy who gave it to you.
Anyone who plays in asia on xbox/windows 10
Nope Tryna find someone for a long time now
try #800538767252389888 and #800538816691699722 then.
i knocked out a bronto but i cant tame it for some reason
its on my taming list and everything thers just no bar
Anyone know why xbox servers are showing up?
Is there a Console for PS or is it just the Admin Command?
what do you mean by console
then yeah just the admin commands.
My game started putting the names of items on them when I open my inventory. Did I click something or a keybind?
In your inventory should be an 'i' icon toggle that off. Must've hit it accidentally.
The RTS controls are… confusing to operate on xbox considering how many conflicting controls are being operated at once
So far I’ve only managed to execute: extended interface with the button left of home, and left bumper plus up dpad for “attack this target”
now that's interesting, I would be very interested in finding out how he did that to honey's spoil timer
What creatures are completely useless to tame?
depends on what you mean by useless, like do dinos that arent useless count if they are useless because another dino does their job objectively better?
Spider lol
How is it physically possible to have fun in ark when playing pve with 5000+hrs?
By 1000hrs u have already explored the entire map by 2000hrs u have done every single boss fight, by 5000hrs u can look at a single pixel off a screenshot and make out what Map/location someone lives at
Like shit I joined this 5x pvp server 1week ago I still have 0 PvE deaths. Not a single death to a wild dino, lvl 1 on the beach to level 105
Awesome update on PS5......lost so many structures due to antimesh because rocks and trees have respawned inside my base!!
What do you mean by "legal"
How do I know my player id?
Implant has your ID on it
Thanks
Is it worth it to level up Crafting Skills?
The Sample # right?
Yes
Alright
About how long does it take for resources to repsawn?
Does it make crafting faster?
They say they fixed the servers but I call bull each time I join it just crashes
Brought severs up at 3:30 am ruined all my tribes dinos
Yes for items crafted in your inventory. You also get a crafting bonus on blueprints, and can make better custom recipes.
So how many times should I upgrade it?
you don't need to , you can just use a mindwipe tonic and put all of your lvl points into it when you want to craft someting
It really needs to be pretty high to gain the most out of it. Personally not worth it.
And yes, mindwipe when you have alot to craft like imperial says
anyone doing gen1 boss full carry? on smalltribe ps4 for me and my mate we pay aka farm anything for it
dm me ty
About how long does it take for resources to repsawn?
you go out of render distance
ok
A shark is attacking it
He will die I think
Boss fight patched
You mean Lost Island Boss?
are all Lost Island servers running poorly? As in double the ping, continuous disconnections, rubberbanding, lag spikes
or is it just the one I'm playing on
Hey yall, I got a question, can AMD Ryzen 7 3700U eith Radeon Vega Mobile Gfx 2.30 GHz 5.88GB ram run medium graphics on ark? Im really hoping it does so I can play with my friend
you can see the minimu requirements on the epic or steam or windows page of the game
Ik but Im not sure if my friend's specs are above or tied with the minimum requirements
5,88 G of ram or video ram?
5.88 available ram
Think he can run it with medium graphics?
He really wants to play ark with medium graphics
i'll check if it's enought
He made a deal with me, if he cant run with medium graphics he wont buy ark but if it does run however he will play with me, he said he wants to see cool hd dinos
I really hope it runs medium graphics
5,88 is not even enought , minimum is 8
What about lower resolution and graphics?
I saw a dude on youtube play ark on the lowest settings with 4gb ram
i don't know that much about the graphic card, but i think it's enought for the processor
Alright thanks
trying to think of a tribe name thats cool. suggestions? lol
No. Never touch crafting skill on your character. If you wanna craft bps u make a 2nd character on a different map with only crafting skill. Or if its unofficial most servers delete the 24hr mindwipe cooldown so u can use that
I woke up at 3am to ready my tribe for war against the island bosses so I could ascend them, and forgot to hunt alphas 🗿
Hello I have a problem, we can't kill or hurt our dinos or our babies, even when we abandon them
What's the thing to change in the serv to allow to kill abandoned creatures
Change it to PvP
also enable friendly fire
My game keeps crashing when loading underwater_north_03
friendly fire on pve will work on claimed babies, but not unclaimed ones
Where can I get an controllable Noglin?
you tame one
anyone knows the complete ark lore?
iam wondering how the arks ( that were supposed to be life boats ) turned into death traps
It's typical for PlayStation.
'-'
wich stage (juneville,adolescent) we can harvest corps
fruitling
Can I summon these on every map?
wait...did i miss somethin
using cheats or ini, yeah
🤔
the game is 90GB, about, so you need at least double that because PS downloads the update, and has to do some copy/delete work
are you talking about crops
no
I'd recommend having 3x as much space, if you can, to update ark
oh sorry misunderstood
corps (for my electronic farm with tek breed)
ah i see
should i wait till they are fully grown or i can kill them when they are adolescent
I need uninstall and install again
no
im not sure. i know normal adolescent dinos drop prime meat
What i csn do
you need more space on your hdd
Ah
how can you get that without deleting ark?
ok thx
they will not decrease the GB of the update???
Idk
Bruh
A game updated
Now i have 66,96GB
Yea, fist time I had 12gb, than 56gb and then 18gb
honestly, with how big the updates tend to average, you'd think they were changing the game engine itself
Or fixing the lags everywhere.
best lost island spawn ?
My ark doesemt updated
Its other game
But will the wildcard reduce the ps4 update GB?
people still use playstaion in 2022?
Ye
Why shouldn't?
feel free to ship me a computer that can run ark, then
Does anyone know how many missions I have to complete to do the gamma bossfight in genesis 2?
Guys i keep timing out what should i do
all of the gamma missions
Guys i keep timing out what should i do
Thank you
Just tell me what to do cuz i dont know what to do

Dude. Stop bugging peeps on it XD. IF it's your internet then restart your router, or take it up with the internet company
Why tf u answering now lmao i fixed it already
didn't know if you had or not not a psychic lmao
I mean u did respond 30 min later
I had a few months where my internet would go out a couple times a day for hours at a time. Didn't know you'd have it fixed that quick
female tek rex 
next time ask in #bobs-with-probs
turns out I knocked out the tek rex right before it caught this female ovis, double tag
PlayStation 5 came out so I don’t see why not

@half schooner you mean the ps5 same price as a pc with no game pass ooof
Ik 😭
does it take forever for yall to update ark?
yup
is there anyway to make it faster?
yet another dire bear eaten by god damn "terror birds" that just run out out of NOWHERE
i'd recommend using spike walls.
or a auto turret but idk how good it is
unfortunately I'd have to make them and I didn't come looking for dire bears, I'm just on the return trip from taming snails
Can someone tell me why I can't light up a campfire even if I put wood in it?
I'm starving xd
Is there a way to steall an wyvern egg without flying dino?
Don't know but there a trick to steal an egg without getting attacked
Steal an egg and log out immediately. Then join back in and walk away in peace lmao
However is Deinonychus spawning on Ragnarok?
Love it how Noglin is doing 17,500,000 Damage after getting out of the head.
What map are you playing?
The Island
Right
Usually they are on Genesis 2 but I used a Transmitter lmao
Actually I don't know it either. Just bought it for the skins lmaoo
Don't need to be alpha
Oh yes I forgot
So? Any idea?
if you want to fight alpha overseer i thought you did?
Sorry Idk but you can try with thatch tho
No I did Gamma lol
so you fought alpha overseer with gamma trophies?
Tried everything, maybe because I placed it on the beach
No gamma overseer
.... okay
Idk you should restart the game so bugs may be fixed
Where ever you placed it, it thinks it's in water. Try making another one
I think so, now it's working
@silent matrix use #735196255483068497 for lfg.
What's easiest way to get milk from wyvern because this one with a "house" is exhausting my brain cells
Is there a way to heal Shadowmane fast?
@cedar plaza pig snow owl combo.
I started game 1 hour ago.
Force feed it meat it won't be quick but if you just started that is probably your only option.
@cedar plaza
Okay from 3k to 18k HP. That'll be fun lmao
what do i upgrade on a daedon ( boss fight)
@tardy eagle food and health. Just a little move speed doesn't hurt if you have the extra points to allocate
like 15k hp the rest food
sometimes boss dont even damage the pig so you could get away with entirely food if it has ok start hp
it has 9k
Stock it with fish meat for the fight imo best easy way to keep the food up or raise it again quickly
yea a good non mutated pig levelled up should have 80k+ food also
according to wiki the pig actually gets extremely poor food value from fish
ideally cooked prime meat or mutton chops would be the best for that
unless you got kibble to spare that provides the most per piece
apparently the lowest tiers of kibble simple basic regular provide 96 food per piece thats pretty good to know
I may be wrong but I thought for some reason fish gave more than just raw meat.
Id link the wiki chart but cant do that here
is 4k fish meat good enough
Yeah but I'd probably listen to @final lake I need to check the wiki to make sure 😅
it says raw fish is only 5 food per piece tho, cooked fish is 12.5, raw regular meat is 10 and cooked regular meat/jerky is 25
without a doubt the best approach would be to mass produce the low tier kibbles
someone told me that a longggg time ago and I totally forgot glad I checked the wiki
Do dinos used for taming noglin need to be any specific lvl?
@brittle sorrel I think higher level will give more taming progress
are servers still messing up for people
Isn't Noglin a little too op?
Is it possible to remove the Noglin from a Dino without killing it instantly?
@celest sail d/c every 10 mins on win10 lost island i think thats the normal
Hello
is there is a mod to see exactly were we died ?
No, unless the dino isnt wild then it wont die.
So is anything going to be done about the textures on console ark still being broken after a second "fix" update?
yes, for max level 150 you want level 135 or so + perfect tamed brontos or voidwyrms that arent bred otherwise the noglin wont get the maximum amount of taming and go down to 0% taming effectiveness really quickly.
But 17,500,000 damage, does it onehits everything?
yeah.
tamed dinos (whether or not they belong to you or not) wont take that damage though.
I think for a 150 it has to be over 200 or something like that
It may just be taming effectiveness
its not just for high level noglins, ive noticed that every noglin needs that otherwise they wont get the max 20% per feed.
cant be levels acquired from leveling up either, and contrary to popular belief, the hp doesnt matter either.
I can't control tamed dinos
you cant control ones that belong to you, ones that cant be controlled regardless of tamed or not, or if the noglin is a lower level than the target
Love it, just kidnap a Triceratops and u got enough berrys for the next month lmao
they work really well as an all in one dino for gathering when starting out on a new map.
When I control a Megalodon, can he collect oil for me?
no because megalodons dont collect oil to begin with.
Thx!
apart tickly chicken boi what can i use for getting thatch
Pretty much anything that can gather thatch is decent, stego, trike, bronto
Oh, which one is the best?
check out the dododex app, it shows resource gathering rates for all tames
@hidden urchin a megaloceros male is #2 for thatch collection #1 is Bronto but good luck getting a bronto around.
Found my secret thatch stash, it was on my bronto
Megaloceros <3
Anyone want to play?

Ew

@mortal sierra use #735196267373920286 for lfg
Hey, anyone know how to force a player to join a tribe using admin commands?
forcejointribe 0 0 while looking at said tribes structure @abstract ether
So it says I was added to the tribe, but I cannot interact with anything and all the dinos are still red. any idea why?
What button is it on console to tame stryder? Like to join the boxes up
I'm guessing it's A or RT? Just don't wanna wait 6000 seconds
probably because the tribes dinos, structures etc are personally owned, you'll need the owner of the tribe to change the settings
you know it, I just relogged and its fixed it would seem. thank you
pretty sure its Y or RT
i do believe its RT
Do you have any idea if there is a command to move structures and\or dinos over to the tribe I inserted myself into?
takeallstructures and takealldinos to said tribes structures and dinos
Thank you very much.
do you guys like jayex
Bronto was easy for me XD, They're so slow. You just gotta keep em at a bit of a distance and you're set
what server you guys on
How do I use the harvesting tool on stryder? It keeps shooting the other thing but has a harvest thing
Keeps shooting pulse cannon but has the excavator
what do i tame a doedicurus with>
berries, crops, or kibble
ok ty
It says bags in the bottom left
@tall minnow
So, I'm building a house with an wood floor and stone walls, what do you guys think what staircase I should use? Stone or Wooden?
you do know that most creatures can damage wood right? and if the wood floors get destroyed then so will the stone ones that are attached
I already got a weapon against that creatures
okay
But thanks for the advice
Does Tek sword damage stacked vaults (like dropped in eachother)
me and my 2 friends arelooking for a mega tribe on official
Does Tek sword damage stacked vaults (like dropped in eachother)
I really fucking hate wiring in ark
Does anyone know the swing interval of the Tek sword? (How much time per hit)
use the flex wire, makes it so much easier
It's still incredibly annoying
I have a lots of fun doing that.
Did ark fix polygon island ?
They did a lots of changes on Lost Island.
Alright
@split light read #735188572688089229
Thanks
Np
Have to knock out a wild female with tranqs
And ? After how do i collect it or it has it in its inventory
in it's inventory
got a free rex pog level 236
Lost my ark character while in upload any idea what could have happened?
so im trying out genesis 1 fr this time and would yall consider the bog harder to start in or smth like the arctic biome
ive died 4 times in the bog and only started 17 min ago bru
Why isnt the rex my friend gave me doing the sexy time to make a egg
Uh why did a lvl435 Rex spawn in my single player world 😭 someone help idk what to do about it. Is it a glitch or what
You on mods or something
Idk trap it and tame it later it won't despawn
Have you used the "SetDifficultyValue" command on your save?
Nah I didn't touch any of those commands
Odd, then I'd suggest you do what Die.Alive said and just tame it.
Wouldn't that make the game super ez
The tranq and time it would take would make up for it being busted
I searched it on Google said it's a glitch happened to some ppl
anyone from lost island 1041?
190 tranq darts to ko 43 kibble so it will make up for it being OP if not just run a dino wipe
Also if you can trap deinonychus near a nest spawn to farm there egg can you do the same thing to wyvern or magmasaurs?
Is there a way to play with just another person?
Im new to ark but I want to find someone that I can play with also
why is lost island server 1042 still down?
#server-reports if you haven't already
Hi everyone, where can i find a Doedicurus on The Island please
Im at 25-45 (on the map)
they can be found in the mountains
Snow Mountain is okay ?
I think so, I'm not 100% sure myself
K thx, i'm gonna see if i find one
hope you do!:)
Doedics are incredibly uncommon in the snow area. Try searching around either the volcano or the mt in the top right. I found mine on the volcano
Actually my ''house'' is on 25-35...
hey what settings do I need to change so that my minimap and scopes actually load in, right now they are just a blur and I can't see a thing or aim
i dont think its anything, just let it load in
also anyone know how big the last update was?
is there a command anymore to force complete a mission on gen 1? All of them seem to be broken
Get a new game. Should fix everything
the longer I I play the worse the graphics get
Anyone know why an auto clicker wont work on ark for me for some reason? even discord overlay doesnt work
and it's not my GPU, it doesn't increase temperature so it's not like I load more intense things
It was 2 updates ago. They fixed it for playstation on yesterdays uodate tho
I'm PC
Yeh. I’m sayn they probably broke it for all platforms so next pc update hopefully its fixed
oh I see
I can't play with friends on ark through epic games
I tried everything
This game needs a better multiplayer system
@peak finch
what company hosts arks official servers?
Any1 playing valguero here?
I 100% agree
Why the noglin I try to tame controls some dinos but before it's tamed it stops controlling them and taming goes down? (There's enough dinos)
its because of mods
ark isnt going to get a better multiplayer system. Wildcard is trashing ark 1 and making ark 2 to make it what ark 1 couldnt be due to them coding it awfully.
Hopefully wildcard has more experience in game development to the point where they can actually somewhat optimise the game
i'm confused what is different from the 12th and todays patch notes they read exactly the same...
I’d hope 6 years would be enough lol
Probably the other one’s never actually worked
honestly idrc as long as theres somewhat balanced pvp and similar raiding mechanics
Agree
I like pvp on ark 1 but wildcard doesnt have pvp in mind when they introduce dinos
which is why shadowmanes exist, objectively the worst fucking dino in the game
by worst I mean the most poorly balanced
Why the fck they added that amagrasaurus
oh yea that exists
I havent seen it at all so idfk what it does
its also sad that an rtx 3070 cant run ark at over 60fps in a lot of places
They add bunch of bad dinos nowadays
ground clutter is the reason
I remember when they added terror bird it was hype somehow even if it is not that good , but it was fun tho
terror bird had hype? they are the most annoying thing in the game lmao
I mean in old ark when only island existed a lot of dinos were added
I mean if you compare the first argy to the 2017 argy its a big improvement
best carnivore ?
wdym
Why the noglin I try to tame controls some dinos but before it's tamed it stops controlling them and taming goes down? (There's enough dinos)
Balls
Best carnivore is giga 🤡
I like the amagrasaurus.... Except that they almost always try to beat down the manas I am taming
maewings are the best thing gen 2 brought over
pc-patch v342.13 for servers was the same fixies like last 342.16 for clients ... wrong target ?
all u gotta do with maewings are load net gun go on dive in jump off ez net
They are so great
I have 6 and am breeding others, just so damn nice
bloodstalkers and maewings are epic
Its hilarious that you can have them breed each other at the same time and get 2 eggs at once AND it changes mother vs father on each lol
anyone knows why it is not possible to upload mods to the ark on epic games?
Because mods are Steam only
Good small tribes server anyone
there's a war steam vs epic
what carnivore should i use
Epic is only useful as a free game archive at the moment sadly
ark editor is on epic and you can't use with epic players ...
If you get a few mil oxygen you go vroom vroom in water 😂
How does obelisk work
simply
you can use obelisks to craft cryopods, cryofridges and replicator, or travel from a map to an other
and store datas and dinos
And summon bosses
but take care for saddles they are no longer with dinos ...
saddle are staying on dinos only with cryopods
I mean how to transport dino
name a random big dinosaur
Diplo?
use cryopods, like pokeballs
uploading stuff is free
cryopods themselves are crafted.
Tnx
on officials (and some unofficials) there is a timer that makes it so you can't upload creatures, but can be bypassed with cryopods.
hey i hate asking but does anybody on small tribes have some dinos that they dont need our team needs it
is anyone doing smalls boss fights i’m a solo rn nd it’s js hard to get them
anotha one
Hey I having a problem. My friend is trying to join a server I got through epic but whenever he joins he cant customize his character or spawn in, does anyone know if theres a fix to this\
Why the noglin I try to tame controls some dinos but before it's tamed it stops controlling them and taming goes down? (There's enough dinos)
ffs again a update
@brittle sorrel u need 6 tamed voids
But I've seen you don't necessarily need voids + to begin with noglin just eats 2 - 3 dinos and stops
On Lost Island... I went where there were lots of sheep and there were like none... (the large grassy plains in the SE) Do I just assume they all got eaten? (Not a lot of carnivores around though... ). How long do I have to wait around before things spawn in again?
i am gonna literally commit suicide
Amagra
carnivore
Allosaurus
I want to play this game it's just so hard so it's hard to actually bring myself to load the game up
417.9MB unpacked to 41.7GB... RIP my 349GB Ark folder lol
if its really that big of a deal for you, you can get mods, change the settings so its easier for you, or even use the admin commands but that might make the game boring for you
Nah I like the difficulty of game just I never know what tk do after I build a stone base
go and explore the map
get tames
breed ur dinos for the bosses
you could disable flyers for yourself
i mean like you cant tame flyers
it'll make the map feel a lot bigger
I try but I always die to the dinos or people full tek
Have you tried unofficial cluster?
have u tried pve
i got all the mutated male raptors i need, just waiting for some to grow up so i can waste even more of my life making a superpowered digital extinct lizard
Hello everyone, does anyone know why I can't find my nitrado server when it is running?
im trying to load into a singleplayer world rn, and everytime i press singleplayer, it brings me to extinction and tries to load me to extinction, does anyone know how to fix
#bobs-with-probs this is the asking for help channel @wary quail @ivory iris
thanks
np
I somehow changed something so that when I add an item to my inventory it now takes the first slot instead of the last. Does anybody know how to fix that?
Check that you didnt click the sorting options by mistake
Sounds dumb, but
Accidentally turning off tooltips is the #1 issue ive heard people speak abt haha
Ah that did it, thank you!
Does Nintendo switch have online servers?
Nintendo switch ark 0_0
Any idea why the noglin I am trying to tame, MC 1 - 3 dinos and then it just stops and all taming goes down to 0%?
@brittle sorrel u need a big box
How big?
Quite big
That was happening to me even with 6 tamed voids
Would get to like 60% and go down
I have 12 dino gates
Ours is like 12x10
The bigger the better, just as long as the noglin can't get out
Okay... got it
Gl
Thx
Is it normal that when there is a patch, the entire game has to be updated and take 3hrs.
No
🤬
Everytime there is a patch the game download the patch, today uts 55mb, then goes about updating the entire 42gigs of the game
Yes
In my experience its normal to take a good while
thru steam at least. verifying files on an unoptimized game 🤷
Ugh this is brutal 😢 I finally have time to play and now it's unusable for the evening
My new proper gaming rig is finally on it's way which means I won't have to play ARK on potato graphics anymore
Have transfers been opened on lost island yet
Is it possible to do any island bosses with theris?
Pretty sure theris are better for dragon bc they dont take as much damage from fire
Plus they can use vegetable cake
hi im kinda new 130 hours want to start fresh
why not magma if worried about fire?
considering they hit as hard if not harder then rexes honestly theris work for all of them tbh
Yeah true, makes sense
Is there any resource to find out how high my walls need to be to keep a certain species in/out? I thought 2 high with spike walls would keep my thylas enclosed, but just found 3 of em outside lol
honestly not sure but im pretty sure two high would work? because ive only seen creatures as large as allos escape two high walls
If anything is for some reason climbing you can put a lip on the wall. no idea if.. animals do climb by themselves though
does the desert in rag have any oil veins?
Yes, they’re the best creature to do them with in fact
Along with cakes obviously
Huh...why is this wild theri only doing 1 damage to my stone trap? Would have thought it would tear it to shreds
i dont think theris do well with stone lol
theres a reason theyre wood collectors ig
Ah ok, so they can just theoretically break it, but not really lol
i always use stone to trap em they never manage to break it
Thats good to know, I was dreading upgrading my trap lol
metals annoying to make tbh
i never make a base out of metal much less a trap unless its for a giga or smth
any maps best or good spots for solo/duo
Dude this doedicurus keeps getting in a ball when I try to tame it and I’ve waited for ages for it to heal to full
Huh...they don't usually ball when you're using tranqs
must've been low on health
they always have for me 🤷
Interesting. I stick to headshots with them and they've never balled. But with regular ammo they ball super fast lol
Got a stupid question, how can I make my pet dino harvest stuffs for me?
most dinos don't harvest autonomously. if you're trying to harvest a corpse you can use the attack command
Several dinos do, by setting them to wander near the particular resource they can gather

Ohhh I see
Is anyone having issues with taps not refilling water?
for an anky u can bring it right next to a metal node and im pretty sure itll auto harvest same with doeds and stones but those 2 are the only ones that do it on their own i think
whats the best way to level ups dinos
depends very heavily on whats available to you and what youre willing to do
killing alphas honestly if u can is a decent method
ive had a lot of success hatching wyverns/other rare/highlevel/etc dinos and killing them
alpha raptors and carnos are fairly weak if u cant hatch babies and kill em
is sound helpful? like is it important for my survival
My own blood stalker just killed me wtf
extremely
ugh
yes absolutely
if you have trouble hearing there may be subtitles, like minecraft
i just dont wanna find my headphones
or a mod.. if the game doesnt have fking accessibility features
Mm ah yeah
If you dont use sound, then always have your head on a swivel. always always be looking around you. if ur diligent ull be fine
i'm not lmao
honestly i went a year without knowing what anything in the game sounds like because i only played it muted youll be fine
i'll just go find 'em
So no one is having a bug where taps stop working?
dont wanna get jumped by a raptor before i'm ready to kick it's ass
yeah just last time i got on actually
ok, well, if it helps... Drinking straight water works, as it does canteen/probably other containers, except now filling them is impossible via tap
water sucks, not excited to run a pipeline to my house in order to not die
in fact it drained the water in my container when i put it i n
pipes are annoying but useful
is this happening since last update for you?
i cant find my headphones, ig i'll just do my best lol
pipes are so ugly i would rather die from thirst
or maybe my pc will bluescreen when i open ark😐
right
i always go for aesthetic with building rather then actual usefulness i like to avoid using pipes and use wires as little as possible
idk, in a game like ark i dont really care abt aesthetics
in minecraft and valheim i care
i almost never put emphasis on aesthetics
but the pipes are just so horrendous they get in the way and look so goofy
hey if i started a world by doing host/local, how do i get back to that? was i supposed to save that?
It uses your singleplayer save
so if i hit play singleplayer
If you loaded up singleplayer itd be the same
okay, thank you
Yeah haha
So is anyone aware if WC knows about the water tap bug? D:
i was worried about my beloved moschops and 2×3 thatch house
yo does anyone wanna play ark
does anyone know if the water tap bug will be fixed?
If I use the settargetcolor command, will the offspring carry over those colors or is it a one-off?
How many tranq arrows do I need for a carno level 100
please somebody tell me how to turn off commands i have a problem with using them.
play on a server where you arent admin
or make it a case of equivelant exchange
"i can cheat in a featherlight, but i need to throw out 60 metal ore"
im ps4 and broke
Check out dododex, you can put in your specific weapon and dino/level and it'll tell you the exact amount

understandable i just cant bring myself to make my base a simple box or anything like that
an ugly base bothers me so much
question could I just transfer my the island character to a non story map to learn all engrams there from the paid maps out do I have to transfer to each
I might try for certain engrams for that character
Hey anyone trying to do a duo run and see how fast we can go dm lets goo
mfw i die to a carno on the mf sputh beach
theres a spino, 2 theris, an alpha raptor, and a carno all mear my house
This game is really unforgiving like that lol
The "starter area" can still be utter hell if you're unlucky with spawns
And that stays true all the way to the end-game
I never got super into taming so if I ever saw something like a T-rex I just decided that area was off-limits for the time being
I accidentally picked up plant species x out of the farm plot and now I can't set it back down? But I have the option to place
I consider myself to be fairly competent with the blade
Which afaik is a rather unused skill in the meta
melee is punished by the game's design, as ive seen
Even so on my Island save I can consistently beat a Megatherium in one-on-one melee combat
is there any better way to avoid getting killed constantly at early stages or do i just need to tough it out? what materials should i be grinding?
Also once came out on top against a pack of like 6 raptors including an Alpha with just my sword and shield
Maybe I'm just fighting weaker dinos but that playstyle seems a lot stronger than people give it credit for to me
Play passively
Try to build your base somewhere defensible, and if that's not an option then just far away from predators
I didn't start heading out of sight of the coast until I was like level 60 lol
depending on the map herbivore island is a good option from carnivores but not the best option really
are there any dinos i can get early game with big inventory that can scare off predators?
pumping movement speed to a ridiculous ammount, then respeccing later in the game a mindwipe tonic, could be helpful
you can also never dismount your animal. find a nice one, keep your ass glued to its back
I would honestly reccomend building in any caves you might find
Others may call that suicide
But you'll be fine as long as you maintain a steady reserve of stimberries/stimulants
dinos in the 'apex predator' class wont be bothered by many smaller animals. might extend further than that, but it is a mechanic
im scared of riding my moschops because i dont want him to die
yeah i just mean things like bugs and dilos and raptors
You can get a shield at a reasonably low level, that basically invalidates dilos
Again, keep stimberries on-hand to deal with bugs or anything that can tranq
As for raptors
Pay attention and avoid foliage
I swear those things are ambush predators, and they often travel in packs
should I do a dedicated moschops for rare flowers as well?
i hear theyre good for organic polymer if youre at that stage
where do u get crystals
yeah but I don't have penguins to farm ATM😂
Once saw one group use one of their own as bait
One was 1v1ing a trike and inevitably lost
And as I approached to loot the body like three more jumped outta the bushes
mountains
As a wise man once said
"Clever girl"
I need a bee 😂
also I've a parasaur I don't use anymore with 1,194 weight cap I really should stop leveling him in weight lol
are those little otter things rare? i hear they're really useful but i just list all my shit and restarted so i dont have fish
yes I guess
I haven't tried actual fishing yet
Sometimes I just jump in the water and shank a colecanth or whatever
get the thieving bird it'll be helpful
I would but seeing one sends me into a blind rage and I must kill them on sight
same but I still managed it
Lost an entire set of metal tools to a single one of those things
I also hate pegos
Not to mention a combined stockpile of like 2000 meat/berries
Do you guys think lost island is better then gen 1 or vice versa?
I do
yes
I died by hyenas
I regret taking my basilo with 2 following sarcos 😂
or whatever their called
And there's a arge person outside my house waiting for me
hyenadons
Yeah and I had metal armor
They’re relatively rare depending on the map
And yeah they’re extremely useful. The higher melee they have the more of an insulation buff they give (both heat and cold), and they can also carry multiple artifacts in them, something no other creature can do
I gave my friends our wyvern crypods since I knew I was gonna die going through a swamp for a meawing
I need to figure out the meawing spawn on the Lost Island
Man I had a whole entire todo list but it got ruined ig
I can tell u it rn
Once I die atleast
It's near a swamp though
you can
but I don't think I'm ready enough😂
Spawn map is on the page
atleast don't want Gigas interrupting my pathway again😂
yea I've slowly been checking wiki for the spawns of stuff
but thanks
if you want the best map for taming them, then either aberration or gen 2, both have a LOT of otters
gen 1 isn't half bad either, though I prefer ab myself
But heres the real question
Gen 1 is just pain😂
Which looks better, aberrant or x
I gtg but when I return I fully expect to see a full blown argument
Dude stays AT MY HOUSE WIT his arge
aberrant imo
another player?
do animals despawn? like if i come back later will he still be in the area?
also, can beavers harvest wood without having to ride them?
they don't normally "despawn" unless you take them far away from their original area, but you can never trust them to stay there if you go away, they can very easily just die
they can, yeah
So how do I get organic polymer again
Ik the big edgy crabs drop them but idk if I can take one of those yet
On SE but have mods to let creatures from other areas spawn anywhere
yeah i know that not despawning doesnt necessarily mean it'll stay there
but it is a factor
some have atleast for a cave on lost island wise
there was once bugs being detected and eventually there wasn't
thank you for your help
Mantis
I've heard that they don't despawn but then I very rarely find the same dino in the same spot if I go away for a long time, so they probably do despawn every once in a while
the angry goose things near water drop it
mantis
i just got some a few minutes ago
Terror birds?
no they're little
terror birds don't give any
they attack on sight, cant fly, and swim around in the water
Hesperonis
yeah those things
yes this
@long flicker hello bob
hello sandwich
i got a sarco and anky in the blue zone which is nice
so will carnivores fight other carnivores ?
yeah
carnos will fight yuties of other packs
and if carnivores get attacked by things bigger or smaller than them then they'll fight back
i led a trex to a spino, they were jus ganging on brontos and whatnot like they were bros
things of the same "size" won't fight each other
Only flying creatures I'm seeing around are those fat beetle things
beetles can fly?
Yeah those ones
oh jug bugs
jug bugs are ez early game chitin/oil
I need to recheck otter spawn I feel like I'm in the wrong spot😂 OOF
so what does it mean when a dino is glowing orange
they are an alpha
so they are pretty much a boss if you wanna call it that
Aaaaand game just crashed
Considering it takes upwards of a half-hour to load and I can't even use my headphones during that time cuz it really doesn't like me taking them in or out
That's likely it for now
do you have a spyglass you can check then but maybe it's a buff from a yuti perhaps
what dino
its a raptor
it may have just been his scales that was orange, bc it looked misty orange from afar
its pack leader
pack alpha/leader
oh ok, whats special about them??
depends on the dino
most of them is a damage + resistance buff
higest lvlv of the pack
okkk thank you guys
what did frogs tame by?
berries?
Guy with a level 226 arge
He killed all my dinos💀
And hasn't said a single word since he got to my base
official or unofficial?
what sort of frog eats berries
maybe it's against rules idk I only glanced at the rules maybe someone else here can help more
you've never heard of a vegetarian frog before😂
that is correct, I've never heard of a vegetarian frog before
beelzebufos eat meat, fish, kibble
you got me laughing
anyone know how to fix invalid attempt, already authenticating
Best stat to upgrade in yutis and what they're used for
health and stamina, mainly used in bossfights
Alr
Don't worry about md?
they aren't the damage dealers for the boss, so no
they just sit at the back and courage roar
if you plan to use it to fight other dinos then you'll need md instead of stam tho
In boss fight use rex with yuty at back?
Yep. You send in your fighters and stand behind them mounted on your yuty roaring
Ill buy 2 good Rex's n start breeding more then
If you're buying them make sure they aren't Neutered
Whats neutered, sorry im sorta new
There's an option to make it so that your tames can't breed anymore. People who sell tames usually neuter them so you can't just buy a breeding pair and steal their business
I think I might have seen that option somewhere didnt know it did that
"SCP Evolved"
What does scp even stand for 😂
secure contain protect? idk lol
How does ark run in xbox sx
Ferox cuter
I meant this
Shit bc its an xboc
Wb ps5
Ps4 rubs good when my internet works but I dont have ps5
You clearly dont own an air fryer
The game is really not intended for consoles
I just actually saw a fps video on xbox series x it runs 60fps
With the even more detailed graphics its capped at 30
Yeah sounds about right
If you already have the console it's worth playing. If you're considering purchasing something to play ark definitely go with a pc
Better than my pc on low med graphics 😭
On my ps4 I can get up to 40 fps if I don’t move the screen with a small amount of dinos/structures in the area and am on a stable map
Otherwise its around <20
O i aint buying 1k+ pc tbh
Pc is less expensive in the long run
Got a gaming laptop with an RTX 3060 for $1200, I've seen ones for $900
I aint never seen that
Not if you get HONEY
With honey, you can save up to $500!!!
Thats $500!!!!!!
Best i saw was 1.5k
I have become an ad
I have honey
Lol
But there isnt many offers
Imma see
Theres 1 but its sold out
Rest is 1k
How is pc cheaper in the long run though
if I wanted to eventually use a paracer for Taming rock golem what should I put levels into?
The money you spend each month on ps+/xbox whatever
To be able to play online
Health to tank, but I don’t think thats a good idea
Ig but you can buy em giftcards
who needs to play online.
how do u stop a trex
some of y'all recommend I do cannon on the paracer so I finally tamed one
is stone arrows and a cross bow ennough??
for what
U need alot of shots
its easier to just place a cannon on the ground and pick it up before 30 seconds, paracer would make it unneccessarily difficult.
Well I’m assuming thats what most people want
72 u think is enough?
No
wow
yes, you'd do around 6k damage but i doubt you'd get all of them in before the rex ate a corpse.
Especially if crossbow is primitive
Nvm i still getting xbox lol
put all your items at base and lure it away
At the cost of your life
let it kill you so you dont bring it back to your base.
well yeah if its still aggro'd tk you.
U got a tane
tane?
Tame
only my doedicurus 😥
Ok store everything and run haha
lmao ok
Thing is if u shoot rex and your not on a cliff it'll kill U easy
Are u on a cliff
Hey I’m kind of a bob playing in small tribes with a tribe and we keep getting raided so I want to tame a lightning wyvern how many arrows does it take to knock out to tame one
Get an egg lol
you dont ko them
U cant knock out tame
How
you can't tame wyvernds, you have to steal their eggs
You don’t knock them you steal eggs
Go in trench
Oh
Look for nest
well what map are you on
add me back
My tribe wants to move to centre
U need wyvern milk or snow owl
Or daedon
Milk easier in my opinion
Or phase pistol
cant you raise them without milk on small tribes with an event?
Daedon can't do wyvern at baby
how do u tame a queen bee
best to read the wiki
wassup
destroy a hive/deal with the drones and once its destroyed the queen will spawn (use bug rep) u have to passively feed her rare flowers
actually i forgot if u even need bug rep i think ghille’ll work idk
bug rep is so much easier
yeah
ghille she can still detect you
you need it from what I know
or you can spend 50 years trying to sneak up on it
I went to I think the right spot for an otter I come out with paracer frog and theri 😂 oh and a kapro
did you go to a swamp.
yes the spot that was shown on wiki
well I think
my maps a little off on my current location
otters dont spawn in swamps.
Yes they do
on lost island they do apparently only spot
i havent played lost island much, thought you meant the average swamp from other maps. my bad.
tomorrow imma just go and watch a video I already found a video with someone cords so imma try by that 😂
since when do otters spawn in swamps?
All. The. Time.
they spawn right at the edges in some places but those aren't "swamps" anymore
what do you even consider a swamp then, the only swamp i know of in the redwoods is that mini swamp but they might of just ran there.
according to the wiki they do indeed spawn at the edge of a swamp that is a proper swamp on the island
news to me, ngl
Its okay to be wrong.
but its the edge, so is it really considered in a swamp.
Yes.
to each their own😂
nah, it's proper swamp
^
which swamp.
check wiki
Lol
I've never seen otters there but wiki doesn't lie
I tame them there
Never
writhing swamps?
flashback to that one time wiki recommended parasaurs for bossfights
idk the names, but spawn location on wiki shows a spot that is indeed a proper swamp
Vandalism
it'd stayed on for at least 7 months
maybe 6 months, somewhere around that
maybe not much of a fight but they can do it
writhing swamps show otter spawns but like, they dont even look like a swamp to me.
Incredulity doesnt matter.
the wiki image is just murky water
I've been there a lot, they're pretty much proper swamps
though I don't know the name
loads of mangrove trees and kapros and everything
anyways I'm off for night
I don't think regular vandalism would stay on for that long
idk the writhing swamps cover a giant portion of the island and list otters a spawn yet the otter wiki page doesnt include a giant part of writhing swamps.
well yeah, didn't say that it spawns in the entire swamp
but a part of it, that is indeed a proper swamp has otters
it's about as proper of a swamp as you can get
i mean sure it has otters but even the wiki states that theyre rare so idk why you'd want to dare tame otters there.
Yeah I'd rather not tame otters in swamps anyawy
ab or gen 2 is way better
though ab's lack of good fishes is annoying
