[wispy frigate]

And fjordur, if they keep it

[tough yarrow]

They should

I dont know CI and LI well enough to know

[wispy frigate]

🤞

[wispy frigate]

I don’t think theres any on ci
As for li, yeah I haven’t explored enough

[tough yarrow]

Seems weird to remove plants if they're readily available on other maps, although fjordur does add all 4 veggies

[solemn bronze]

where on rag is it? LI and CI do not

[slate widget]

highlands I think

[tough yarrow]

The highlands farm

And carrots on highlands east beach

[solemn bronze]

ahhh okay. I don't explore that way much. wyvern trench and gigas too close haha

[grizzled path]

bro 💀 what do with my rex lmfao

[tough yarrow]

Highlands is the easiest aside from cold gigas and allos

[tender rock]

?

[grizzled path]

please tell me what to do with a rex (i havent unlocked the saddle yet)

[solemn bronze]

put it on follow and have it be your bodyguard

[grizzled path]

ok

thank

[solemn bronze]

No problem

[lone osprey]

truly a hero amongst sheep

give that sheep a throne

[idle blaze]

Anyone know how to fix this bug? Im on Xbox but use keyboard and mouse and when I press “enter” aka typing in chat, after exiting it I can’t sprint anymore

[silent matrix]

Well… every playthrough i have a theme for my tame names. This time i went sort of meta and named them the ordinal number in the order which they were tamed. Her name is “Ninety fifth”.

[solemn bronze]

All hail the mighty Queen Ninety Fifth. First of her name. Defender of tames and protector of the base realm. Long may she reign! 👑 🐑

[lone osprey]

long live queen ninety fifth 🙏

[bronze jacinth]

Why do equus always gotta jump off cliffs

[lone osprey]

because theyre being goofy dont judge them

[solemn bronze]

speedy horse go WEEEE

[dense furnace]

what mods can you guys not live without?

[wispy frigate]

cries in console

[olive egret]

I could and did live without all of them @dense furnace did 700+ official server before all of the nerfs, certain mods fix so many of the issues in base game Wildcard never got around to fixing, namely S+

[dense furnace]

issues as in poor design or issues as in bugs?

or both?

[olive egret]

both

S+ and Platform+ alone fix so many of the building issues and address many more QoA issues

[wispy frigate]

Dsv2 is is an amazing alternative to cryopods

[olive egret]

two hours trying to squeeze the foundations into the spot i wanted to begin megabase and nope, cant do it

[silent matrix]

Why are smalltribes servers crashing every 30 mins ?

[outer widget]

dupers probly

[olive egret]

sorry, no clue on that one sorry

[silent matrix]

Bruh

I cant even imprit my sinos :c

[olive egret]

i question the architects who built the sanctuary, a lot of the areas here, youd need to be high to think its good design lol

[dense furnace]

whats dsv2?

[olive egret]

dino storage

[wispy frigate]

Dino storage version 2

[dense furnace]

would you recommend getting both, and are they on workshop?

[olive egret]

more improved cryo pods

bare minimum get S+, if you dont get any other mod, get that one

[wispy frigate]

Custom dino levels too

[olive egret]

hows that one work?

[outer widget]

or just play vanilla

[dense furnace]

i have

[wispy frigate]

And get a death recovery mod for when your body falls through the mesh or your inv gets deleted by crashes

[olive egret]

played vanilla, its boring after hundreds of hours

[dense furnace]

im tired of vanilla, i love what the game could be and sometimes is, but i dont wanna play the game in its normal state

[wispy frigate]

Cdl? Changes level distribution
Default matches everything to rag distribution, but you can customize it to do anything

[olive egret]

the game improves immensely with mods

Ark is like GTA V in that way, so much more fun and more life

[dense furnace]

so are there mods that make higher level dinos actually spawn in harder locations rather than just being random everywhere

[outer widget]

this year I'll do another storymode and after each boss I get on my implant I'll roll a d20 to see what mod I add to the playthough

[olive egret]

the custom dino mod, will it wipe my server data or anything if i add?

[wispy frigate]

Nope

[olive egret]

id love to have everything be 180, make fights more interesting

[wispy frigate]

Yep it can do that

[olive egret]

and if i skew the wild stats to make them stronger before tame, i can actually have my dinos get hurt without having to stand there and not attack lol

thats one of my biggest issues, once you get one of the top tier dinos, everything but alphas or reaper queens is basically useless and cant touch you

also, ive killed like 200 defense drones, do they not drop blueprints?>

[outer widget]

the rolly ones dont

[olive egret]

damn and i really wanted an army of Droideka too

[outer widget]

see if there is a tameable defense unit mod

[olive egret]

i like the blueprint thing better, shouldnt be able to tame a robot

[brittle hinge]

Anyone know if they are trying to fix the DC’ing on pc official server?

[olive egret]

though one thing i do need to turn on is crabs being able to grab flyers and fish, because like it totally should be able to

damn, poor scorpion, stung one trike and got mobbed by a group 😄

can a rex see/attack you through a window btw?

or aggro you

[wispy frigate]

Stryder: 👀

[olive egret]

havent gone to gen2 yet, but dont you like hack the thing? that feels different somehow lol

[wispy frigate]

Still taming

[olive egret]

touche

[dense furnace]

is S+ on steam?

[olive egret]

look up super structures

[placid sundial]

All mods are only on steam

[dense furnace]

i mean the workshop

as opposed to downloading it manually from a website

[placid sundial]

But S+ doesn't work to find it last i tried, need to use Structures Plus

[olive egret]

then yes

[placid sundial]

yes.

All mods are only on steam

[dense furnace]

okay some mods for steam games can be acquired from places other than steam workshop

[olive egret]

i need to make the replicator like 1/4 the size it is now

[placid sundial]

ah by 'steam' I do mean 'steam Workshop' specifically yes

[dense furnace]

"structures plus" doesnt yield anything in the search

[placid sundial]

I should have been more clear sorry

[dense furnace]

oh no problem

[olive egret]

just sent you link

[placid sundial]

First one, with the bird

[olive egret]

wait i could post the link here lol

[placid sundial]

Nah it'd be blocked. I can tho, sec

[olive egret]

i just did s+ mod steam and boom, first result

[placid sundial]

steam://openurl/https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=731604991

[placid sundial]

Make sure you're in Ark's workshop specifically

Either from the Workshop button on Ark's page or by searching ark first in the general workshop

[dense furnace]

yeah i searched ark and clicked on it and then searched in the ark workshoo

[placid sundial]

Weird. There's been a few occasions where the workshop's just kinda.. died and doesn't show any results for me so maybe that's happening to you rn

[dense furnace]

it happened with death helper mod too, erik had to send me the link to that one as well

i was in ark survival of the fittest lmfao

[placid sundial]

Oh lmao

That would explain it

[olive egret]

what is the default s+ foundation support btw?

[dense furnace]

but i dont think i did that when i was looking for death helper

[placid sundial]

Not sure, possibly same as vanilla

but configurable so

[short comet]

Where can I find long grass seed

[dense furnace]

bushes

its a rare drop, so either use a harvester like a moschops or just grind out bushes with your hands

[olive egret]

so im im reading the instructions right, if i only want max levels to spawn, i need MinLevel=30.000000 and MacLevel=30.000000 since my difficulty modifier is 6?

[lone osprey]

okay so whenever i get too far bushes and stuff start looking really fucking weird and its specific to the redwoods only how do i fix this lmao

[placid sundial]

Check settings for if there's an option for LoDs

[frigid finch]

how I can play a server with middle store or something like that

[olive egret]

usually in streamer communities in my experience, but dont think thats exclusive though

[regal yarrow]

Should be view distance

Or graphics driver

[lone osprey]

LoDs?

[lone osprey]

is there a command for it ? like to adjust view distance

[placid sundial]

It'll have LoDs in it's name if it exists. I dont remember and ccant check rn tho

[olive egret]

okay if i did it right all my wild dinos, even corrupted ones should be 180 which is fun

and my wild corrupted wyverns should be 300, so even more fun, no more easy pwnage lol

oh yeah, .25 scale replicator is so much more appropriate

[lone osprey]

ohhh lemme check

[olive egret]

but it didnt change the size of the other structures,hmm

[rocky hamlet]

Is it possible to play on playstaion 4 with pc players?

[regal yarrow]

Nope

[rocky hamlet]

Why

[placid sundial]

ps4 has no crossplay

[solemn bronze]

Yea PS doesn't like to play with other platforms lol

[rocky hamlet]

So dumb

My friend just bought ark on his pc just to play it with me and we cant

[olive egret]

damn, its so nice seeing max level dinos everywhere, more of a challenge

[solemn bronze]

xbox/win10 can crossplay

Steam and Epic can crossplay if no mods are on steam.

but that's it

[tough yarrow]

Steam, epic, and stadia

[solemn bronze]

ngl. i always forget about stadia XD

[olive egret]

so did Google

apparently, they are quietly abandoning it lol

do basilisks spawn on extinction? need to find a mate for mine lol

weird, cant seem to get the ini right to chance size of grinder, grill and fab

worked fine for indi forge and replicator

[halcyon crypt]

they do not spawn on exstinky

[solemn bronze]

Aberration, Gen1 & 2, Crystal Isles, and Lost Island

[opal meteor]

What’s better a griffin or an argy?

[olive egret]

for?

[opal meteor]

Just overall

[olive egret]

getting around, griffin, combat, friggin Argent lol cause hitting that griffin dive is a pos

[halcyon crypt]

griffin kinda outmaches argy in all aspects besides argy saddle being a smithy

and also having no saddle

[placid sundial]

Argies can grab and fly around with your anky

[opal meteor]

So can argy lol

[placid sundial]

Thyre nicer for resource harvesting and transport

[olive egret]

griffins can grab anky? wtf lol

[placid sundial]

shit i meant argy lol

griffs have shitty grab

[opal meteor]

Ok so I’ll stick with an argy

[olive egret]

i mean no reason not to have both

[opal meteor]

What would be better for killing stuff

[olive egret]

if you suck at the divebomb on griffin, youre limited as thats your best move lol

[ripe dagger]

go w the lymantria

[opal meteor]

Ok

[olive egret]

i love the lymantria

[halcyon crypt]

funny moth fart, get away from anything

[olive egret]

huh, i dont even need a smithy anymore since replicator

[solemn bronze]

yep. smithy/fab/tek all in 1. Exo Mek is similar but doesn't need element to run, is a suit you can use for cool stuff, and is able to be podded up.

[olive egret]

damn i can ditch the fab too, nice

[solemn bronze]

Downside is the weight on it is set unlike slots for the tek replicator (high mat bps are better in the replicator)

[olive egret]

turned all my base walls to glass and now i can watch all of the wild dinos kill each other outside lol

[solemn bronze]

my xbox is currently buckling under that fps from mass amounts of glass lol

[olive egret]

why gacha so tall, gotta make building taller lol

[solemn bronze]

first time i ever saw one I almost missed it thinking it was a giant rock. I was looking for what I thought was mayyybbbeee pachy sized. XD

[dense furnace]

has anyone here used the revive my dino mod? it looks like it could be good if balanced properly but i dont wanna just remove all difficulty from the game

[halcyon crypt]

it looks like its broken as hell

[dense furnace]

oh fun

[lone osprey]

even with the divebomb griffins still suck im sorry they just

[olive egret]

ehh they get around the map incredibly quick and are awesome for egg stealing

[lone osprey]

sure decent for getting around the map but shitty stam health and dmg? not a lot of redeeming qualities

[lone osprey]

id never thought id say this but pteranadons are better for egg grabbing tbh

[halcyon crypt]

i mean both suck in fights anyway

[olive egret]

theyre not but i agree, griffins are not awesome

[halcyon crypt]

pts are chads though because early game saddles

[lone osprey]

both have shit weight health stam and dmg difference is pteranadons are faster

[olive egret]

ptera are not faster than griffins, not even close lol

[lone osprey]

nono they are normally and the divebomb uses so much stam considering griffs barely have any

they look cool but griffs generally really suck

[halcyon crypt]

i still don't see a use for argy when wyverns are an option for like all maps besides like 3

[olive egret]

i can use one dive and cover half the map lol

[lone osprey]

snow owls are better in quite literally every way

[halcyon crypt]

i only use griffins for easy tames because i can tranq while flying

[lone osprey]

to be fair i think argies reduce obsidian weight also theyre good fliers that are easy to get so naturally theyre commonly used

[thorn spear]

Lmao Griffins are one of the best tames for mobility in game

[olive egret]

@thorn spear seriously lol

[lone osprey]

u can pump a lotta weight and use em strictly for mat farming considering how insanely easy rg taming is so its not like wyverns make em obsolete really a bit ig

[thorn spear]

Y’all mad think PT is better for egg stealing also

[lone osprey]

its almost like its because it is

if that shit dies get another one bruh

nothing to lose

[olive egret]

theyre only good for stealing eggs if you go back to classic flyers lol, but i can get in and out on griffin before wyverns can react lol

[thorn spear]

Griffin easy tames too

[lone osprey]

ive gotten eggs with a ptera before the wyverns even got to aggro considering theyre easy as shit to get nothin to lose

[thorn spear]

That doesn’t mean they’re best for the job no?

[olive egret]

theyre disposable, that doesnt make them better lol, gtfo

[lone osprey]

pteras are quite literally everywhere with galli level torpor theyve got better stam then griffs and thats saying a LOT

[thorn spear]

PT stam is garbage

[olive egret]

they dont have better stam than griffin, are you high?

[thorn spear]

Also griff has better base stam

150 v 225? Where you get your facts?

Mans didn’t do they’re research lol sorry dude you’re plain wrong

[regal yarrow]

Lol, pts are the worst jaja

[olive egret]

can dinos breed while in soul terminal lol? would really help with this compact base build im working on lol

cause they can generate eggs passively, so in theory lol

[placid sundial]

(juuust saying, since cf is a mod that should be avoided for a variety of reasons, that you can get speed flyers just by ticking an option on the menu)

[placid sundial]

breeding is a completely different thing to eggs with no data

[olive egret]

damn

rexes take an assload of space too

[placid sundial]

There's a message somewhere with exactly why it isnt a thing but iirc it came down mainly to needing to emulate the whole breeding process (which mods don't even have access to a lot of in the first place)

[olive egret]

no worries, ill make a breeding spot

[placid sundial]

Ah found it, in the guide

[olive egret]

makes sense

[jovial path]

Speaking of breeding I really hope Karkinos eventually become breedable

[olive egret]

just use the dino fix mod lol

[long flicker]

you can see that they're on xbox

[olive egret]

actually i didnt notice

[long flicker]

hopefully some day
they made fucking SNAILS breedable instead of karkinos

[jovial path]

maybe basilisk too

[long flicker]

that'd be nice

[jovial path]

Actually tbh I kinda want a TLC more than I want extra breedable aberration creatures

[tacit cloak]

Will a maewing feed an Unimprinted baby

Cause I wanna keep mating on at all times even at night for my ovis but don’t want them to die

[long flicker]

unimprinted?

you mean unclaimed baby or a baby which you aren't imprinting

[tacit cloak]

No so like when an ovis gives birth you. Imprint right away to start maturation

But I won’t be their when their born

[long flicker]

*there and they're

[tacit cloak]

Since imma be sleeping so will the maewing feed them

[long flicker]

so you mean unclaimed baby
no, it won't feed them afaik

[tacit cloak]

Damn ok

[tacit cloak]

Afk*

[long flicker]

no
I mean afaik

afaik - as far as I know

[tacit cloak]

💀 my bad

[misty turtle]

It can feed unclaim

[daring brook]

Do RVelos take rad damage

[tepid idol]

can i get color mutations from wuverns

wyverns

[placid sundial]

Yes

[olive egret]

what plant am i lookin for if i want rare flowers on xtinction

[solemn bronze]

https://survivetheark.com/index.php?/forums/topic/380184-rare-flowers-on-extinction/

Also beaver dams are plentiful on that map and they contain the flowers as well

[olive egret]

yeah saw that, cat tail isnt very descriptive lol

[solemn bronze]

it says in the swamp at lat 50 lon 40

next to the photo..

[olive egret]

yeah those arent giving them

[solemn bronze]

beaver dams

[olive egret]

yeah yeah i know, im trying to find the actual spawn lol

which doesnt appear to be a dedicated thing on extinction from what im seeing

[placid sundial]

'actual spawn'? like physical flowers?

[olive egret]

yes, like on literally half the maps ive been on lol

[placid sundial]

That's unique to few maps

ext is not one of them

Wiki displays them as a node on the maps where they're used so that's the best way to find the node itself

[mossy glade]

anyone know how to get the king titan dermis?

[olive egret]

so dams would be the best then

[placid sundial]

Yes

[brisk bison]

Alright, so I heard Megatheriums are... Good to say the least

Should I go for a few?

[olive egret]

only good for specific thingd

[brisk bison]

Was told they are good bossfighters, too

[olive egret]

broodmother

[placid sundial]

Only for brood

[brisk bison]

Aha

So I SHOULD get a bunch in advance

[placid sundial]

And even then you'll do just as well with theriz that can be used for every other boss

[brisk bison]

Hm

[placid sundial]

There's not much point to megas really imo

[brisk bison]

Well

[olive egret]

not as many flowers in dams as id like but itll get beehive started

[brisk bison]

We do have a therizino couple at home

[placid sundial]

Theriz are good to breed yeah, they're good for all bosses rather than just one like megas

[brisk bison]

Though mine are low level

[placid sundial]

I mean megas will do broody well, but you might as well save yourself the breed line and use theriz instead

[brisk bison]

10 and 13 or smth like that

[placid sundial]

Since you'd want something else anyway for other bosses

[brisk bison]

Alright, gotcha

[wispy frigate]

Megalos also work
But they’re too cheesy imo

[brisk bison]

In that case Imma just get 1 or 2 at best and it's gonna happen LATER
You know
For the collection

[placid sundial]

And inconsistent. Theri is more reliable

[brisk bison]

So where on the map is Carno island?

[placid sundial]

I mean rexes do too, there's a few

Top right

[brisk bison]

Aha

Got it
So is it better to go via boat or flyer if I'm going for the tame?

[placid sundial]

Flyer

[brisk bison]

What flyer exactly

If I
In theory
Wanted a giga
Later ofc

[olive egret]

wait, i think those flowers actually worked but didnt tell me that it worked, cause i had a bunch on theri lmao

[placid sundial]

Oh tbf leeds don't spawn in the stretch of water between the islands so raft works too

And ig it'd not ahave the risk of your mount getting chomped while you're taming.
you'd also want something for yourself to not get chmoped anyway, though

[brisk bison]

So what I'm picking up from this is Therizinos are food, Megas aren't worth it and doing all this shit alone will be hard

[placid sundial]

Are food? Typo of good?

[dusky cliff]

Just saw a Daeodon and a Mammoth slide down a mountain rapidly, is that normal?

[brisk bison]

Goid

Good
Fucking hell

[placid sundial]

yep lol

[dusky cliff]

Understandable

[placid sundial]

Ark physics be like that

[brisk bison]

Ok, so another thing
I see a lot of people got this little hog mount

[placid sundial]

But yeah pretty much. Megalos are cool but inconsistent (and rare af on Island)

[brisk bison]

The one that heals nearby dinos?

[placid sundial]

Daeodon. I wouldnt bother

[solemn bronze]

I second that

[dusky cliff]

Daeodon

[placid sundial]

Theyre wonky when unmounted, it's better to ride the yuty and bring the extra dps

[brisk bison]

So where do you get one?
(for collection purposes)

[placid sundial]

And yeah even outside bosses owls are just better

[dusky cliff]

usually you'd find them in snow biomes

[placid sundial]

Snow generally

[solemn bronze]

Ignore me. I missed the boss portion lol

[brisk bison]

Wait
There's snow owls on The Island?

[placid sundial]

Wiki has spawn maps for each creature, both on their pages and on the big spawn map

[solemn bronze]

No. My fingers moved faster than i was reading chat.

[dusky cliff]

yes, very helpful

[brisk bison]

Oh fuck I forgor about those

[meager smelt]

i need help how u get dlcs on ark mobile on ios ?

[brisk bison]

Ok, just gonna grind a bit of shit before school ig

[dusky cliff]

I don't think you can't

[placid sundial]

You cant

[meager smelt]

crap i wanted to play ab

[dusky cliff]

that's the sad part about mobile

[dusky cliff]

and i wanted to play ragnarok

[meager smelt]

sad true

[tardy eagle]

Is permanent titan taming setting bugged

[dusky cliff]

How useful are Tusoteuthis?

[brisk bison]

Ok so are the other maps like Abberation and the desert one
Like
Paid?

[meager smelt]

yes

[brisk bison]

Because whether they are or not it won't let me download (or buy) them on the PS4

Shows just the bio

[dusky cliff]

bruh.

[brisk bison]

Am I dumb or is it bugged out

[placid sundial]

Some are. Rag, Ci, LI, Valg, and Centre are all free. rest are paid

[solemn bronze]

Yea unfortunately mobile isn't run the same as this game. There's a link to the mobile discord but a mod needs to link it. @magic tulip would you help with that one for me?

[dusky cliff]

Scorched Earth is just being hot 24/7

[unique topaz]

ARK Mobile

The ARK Mobile Discord server can be found here: https://discord.com/invite/PlayARKMobile

ARK: Survival Evolved

[tardy eagle]

Imo sand storm is worst event

[placid sundial]

Scorched is underrated tbh. But transfers in kinda ruin it and it's best enjoyed as a very heavily tailored experience

[tardy eagle]

Facts

[dusky cliff]

sadly the truth

[placid sundial]

limied flyers with some custom spawns and a sprinkling of mods though? mmmm

[meager smelt]

i need authorize a phone number to join ark mobile but i dont need authorize phone number for ark pc why is it so 🤔

[wispy frigate]

Because the people that run both the servers and the game are entirely different people

[tacit cloak]

Is their a way to keep a fertile egg from breaking without hatching it

[placid sundial]

Picking it up

[meager smelt]

still

[placid sundial]

mobile is also made by a completely different company

[dusky cliff]

indeed

[meager smelt]

wait what

[dusky cliff]

what?

[bleak ridge]

Attention all survivors I’m am terribly sorry to have to break the sad news. At 7:21 AT (Ark Time) our beloved Triceratops Da Wokhardt Weasel was mercilessly slain by a Rex. Other victims of the rex were Lean Boy, Lean Girl and Lean Woman all of which Dodos. The rex has been arrested and will be held in Dino Jail to await his court hearing. Rest in piece Da Wokhardt Weasel, Lean Boy, Lean Girl and Lean woman. You will forever be remembered🕊

[dusky cliff]

Idk who they are, but rest in peace to them.

[meager smelt]

rip even if i dont know what or who it is referring too

[wispy frigate]

Rip weasel trike

[meager smelt]

i thought saeme company made ark mobile and pc

[dusky cliff]

..it isn't

[magic tulip]

Don’t spam

[dusky cliff]

well the more you know

[bleak ridge]

You really mad I sent a message 2 times

[solemn bronze]

yea same map and general gameplay but very different companies and options for it

[dusky cliff]

Indeed, but some dinos like Thylacoleo, Yutyrannus and others are not included in mobile, sadly.

[solemn bronze]

yea. And mobile has the royal griffin (which is breedable from what I remember) and official game has regular griffin but not breedable. Mobile does offer some really cool decor for builds that our game doesn't (though if you're on PC - steam you can add mods for that).

[dusky cliff]

yeah, pretty unexpected to add griffins and not to mention they have some sort of shop that uses the currency "Amber"

[random ore]

talk about ark 2 lore in lore nerdz channel or ark 2 channel?

[solemn bronze]

yea but you have to buy that with actual money, yes? you also have a way to kill dinos, collect their specimen implant and redownload them including wilds.

There's pros and cons to both versions for sure

[wispy frigate]

Good by me, redwoods are a lot less dangerous without thylas and microraptors

[dusky cliff]

you can buy it with money, yes but i think i saw some rocks that have amber in it 🥶 👌

[solemn bronze]

#ark-2 and #lore-nerdz both i suppose.

[wispy frigate]

Seems like an obvious answer lol

[random ore]

kk ty

[wispy frigate]

#ark-2 is for ark 2 discussion

[dusky cliff]

atleast no jumping thylas on my face while flying, amirite

[solemn bronze]

I didn't play much of it before I just broke down and bought the actual game for xbox lol

[dusky cliff]

good, mobile is kinda hell if you ask me
still good tho

[solemn bronze]

I don't like using a touch screen to play. I need a controller lol

[dusky cliff]

and i don't enjoy the lag

and not to mention, it drains your battery FAST.

[solemn bronze]

yea my tablet already loses battery quick just being on XD

[celest patio]

i haven't played my valguero save for like a week or a few days and now my dinos have some random green regions that werent there befire

[wispy frigate]

They’re hulking out

[celest patio]

idk

[placid sundial]

added any new mods?

[celest patio]

yee

[placid sundial]

Void wyvern?

[celest patio]

idk i added additional creatures

[placid sundial]

That it?

[celest patio]

lemme check

ok most additonal creatures mods

prehistoric beasts
balanced narcs

that's it

also my yuty turned orange

yeah some of their color regions changed

[placid sundial]

Not sure about those creature adding mods, it's possible they could have added their own colours. I've seen a mod that adds it's own colours which in turn shifts the colours of everything else

[celest patio]

ok

[placid sundial]

Make a backup, try remove the creature adding mods, see which one turns their colours back to normal and you have the culprit

[celest patio]

oh no it's ok it's not that big of a problem anyway

oh and for some reason my dinosaurs are getting a billion levels idk why i dont need to fix it tho

[elfin hearth]

Do hyperthermic effects from structures affect you when they're not a full enclosure? (In Scorched Earth)
E.g. standing in or near an open-top dino trap

[teal brook]

Is anyone going to do the alpha boss fight on crystal isles?

[meager smelt]

if u get pro mobile gaming accesories it is good to play

like better battery and cooling stations

[south niche]

just came back to ark looking for people to play with

[meager smelt]

platform?

[south niche]

pc

How do I make the rabies cure

[somber anvil]

farming points for in game items dm me @!Skyz OtterHeart OtterHeart OtterHeart

[narrow plank]

Lesser antidote: rare flower, rare mushroom, leach blood, narcotic.

[wispy frigate]

You don’t just make health brews?

[long flicker]

H E A L S O U P
sounds so much better than medbrew

[wispy frigate]

It aint a soup tho

How bout heal beer

[silent matrix]

Hi, I play on the microsoft store version of ark on pc, and my friend plays on the epic games version. Can we still play together?

[hasty void]

i just stole a magmasaur egg thats level 70 how many air conditioners should it take??

[long flicker]

nope
also you should change your role

[silent matrix]

i have it on multiple platforms tho

epic, steam, microsoft store

[hasty void]

if you have it on epic

just play it on epic with him

and why did you buy ark 3 times

[placid sundial]

Epic was free a while ago, MS store has crossplay with xbox, steam has mods

[hasty void]

oh alr

but like who can afford that bro

[placid sundial]

Well since epic was free it'd be only 2 purchases. Ark goes on sale fairly often too (at least on steam)

[hasty void]

yeah true

i bought for 12 dollars

so its not that expensive

[silent matrix]

I like to buy things I don’t use

relatable

[narrow plank]

<- glances at his Steam game list sheepishly

[silent matrix]

I’m feeling like I want shrimp in game.

[vagrant elbow]

Anyone here that plays primal fear?

[silent matrix]

Also, animal milk

[tardy eagle]

Me

😎

[abstract kestrel]

hey guys what is a reaper prince

[placid sundial]

Mission creature

[dense furnace]

is primitive+ the best primitive mod?

by primitive mod i mean removing tek and stuff

[abstract kestrel]

oh can you get it and keep it from spawning it in your self

[hidden urchin]

question how big should a pvp base be?

(like a proper one)

[abstract kestrel]

what server you on

because that has a huge play on what base you should build and where it should be

[placid sundial]

I've heard no dinos spawn on it rn

And this isn't the first time

[hidden urchin]

Im playing island map

[dense furnace]

any other good primitive mods then?

[abstract kestrel]

like what kind of server

[placid sundial]

It's uh.. buggy, to say the least

[abstract kestrel]

officail

those kinds of servers

[placid sundial]

Maybe, might have despawn on restart issues though

[abstract kestrel]

and like fibercraft small tribes servers like that

[dense furnace]

actually, maybe i'll try vanilla with tek bc i havent even gotten that far yet

[abstract kestrel]

bix

[hidden urchin]

Ohhh Unofficial

can't be bothered with official rules ngl

[abstract kestrel]

there is mutiple unoffical servers

type from fibercraft small tribes

those kinds

[hidden urchin]

no modded not small tribes

[dense furnace]

what is the server called? big hint there usually

[abstract kestrel]

good point there

i just need to know what type of server it is

before answering your question

[hidden urchin]

it isnt modded and not small tribes idk what other server it would be, oh its 30x as well

[abstract kestrel]

well if you are by yourself live in a rat hole that is big enough for everything you need

but duo and up your going to need to build in a cave with no 6x damage

[hidden urchin]

Right

[celest patio]

how do i know if im finished taking care of baby dinos

[abstract kestrel]

that is all i know

i dont play pvp as much as my brother

[celest patio]

it doesn't say "wants care in: X" anymore

[brisk bison]

Does the fabricator need energy to run

[celest patio]

yes gasoline

[brisk bison]

Ooooooooooooooooooooooooh

Well where the guck does it state that

[celest patio]

idk

but it needs gasoline

idk about electricity

[brisk bison]

Why does it expect me to go in and say "gee golly gosh, we need gas"

Anyways, thanks

[hidden urchin]

its ark mate

[celest patio]

yeah

[brisk bison]

It certainly is

[celest patio]

there's no built in guides

[brisk bison]

True

But it could have been like
A little thing mentioned in the tooltip or sum, idk

[hidden urchin]

I have a full turret tower on pvp and i started the server yesterday lmfao

[brisk bison]

Epic

[hidden urchin]

yesyes

5 are heavy the rest are auto

[brisk bison]

Good thing is just figured out how to get gas a little bit ago

I am a total noob at this game lmfao

[hidden urchin]

bro i need a shit ton of gas when i get back from school ima go raid some lads

[brisk bison]

Cool cool

I play singleplayer splitscreen with my little brother and we figure stuff out by ourselves

[celest patio]

btw

[hidden urchin]

What does it say?

[brisk bison]

Well

[celest patio]

nothing

[hidden urchin]

whats its name

[celest patio]

the dino?

[hidden urchin]

yeah

[brisk bison]

Is yes

[celest patio]

a wyvern

[brisk bison]

Bruh
Is yes

[hidden urchin]

the full name like juvenile or

[brisk bison]

No like
What's it called

[celest patio]

juvenile

[brisk bison]

Well
Don't they take care of themselves at that point or?

No idea how it works

Only took care of a bary and sarco

[celest patio]

i was only to take care of it once because of the super high wait for caring for the dino

3 hours im pretty sure

[dense furnace]

i wish there were a mod that made flak look like normal plate armor

[hidden urchin]

make one then

[delicate harbor]

get manticore skins

[dense furnace]

i do not have the talent to do that

[hidden urchin]

or probably is theres a shit ton of mods lol

[dense furnace]

helmet ugly

also armor looks bad, huge areas of space completely uncovered. what is a manticore user gonna do when someone shoots an arrow at their unarmored side?

[snow pier]

is ark update?

[delicate harbor]

i dont like any of the helmets either tbh, i can only tolerate flak

[brisk bison]

Oh apparently noq it decided to tell me it needs gas to run, how cool

Thanks, ark

[loud sorrel]

Any mods around? Need to discuss something

[brisk bison]

At least we can fabricate shite now

Exc8ted to finally be able to make cool ass guns

So element dust says it can be refined
How exactly?
And what does it do?

[celest patio]

idk im pretty sure u just craft unstable element in the inventory

and then the unstable element will become normal element

[brisk bison]

Hmmm

Ok, so what I'm picking up from all this is that for the big and cool pewpews imma need a lot of obsidian

Frogs already have the paste covered because they're fucking legends

Yo wait I canmake a generator

Fucking cool

[cyan ibex]

Anyone doing trade tames for Giga bp saddle ascendent

[dense furnace]

is there a way to get body paint/tattoos in ark? i cant find any mods for it on workshop but i wanna make sure its not already a thing vanilla

[silent matrix]

I just wish it wasn’t called flak armor. It’s… clearly medieval plate armor, designed for use with sword, pike, crossbow, and metal shield. Right alongside the rest of the medieval development stage

Riot armor is a lot closer to flak armor tbh

[dense furnace]

idk about medieval plate armor, it is certainly an attempt at plate armor made of garbage

but you're right, certainly not flak armor

[silent matrix]

Yeah you don’t necessarily do leather and metal with nothing in between lol

The crotch has no chainmail scalemail splintmail or anything, just leather lol

I hate the helmet design of flak

Like a shitty dragonborn hat

You know what I wish ark had? Electrified fences and fence generators to connect to power.

For that ultimate Jurassic Park feel.

[loud sorrel]

Sooo… got screenshots of somebody openly admitting to getting ready to bring over a small tribes alpha alliance to come wipe us ( we killed then for scouting us) is it worth reporting?

[dense furnace]

yeah flak is ugly af

thats why im looking into skins, ive found mods that seem like they'll work well

[silent matrix]

Is that not allowed?

I thought in pvp all bets are on

[loud sorrel]

Teaming isn’t, goes against small tribes in the coc.. Atleast for raiding.. we’ve got the Gt’s for the past three weeks of who has come on the server, times dates etc. he’s bringing 5 tribes worth of people over “apparently” to raid a three man

[silent matrix]

Oh then yeah report it

[dense furnace]

guys i just found out i can remote play ark on my laptop

[silent matrix]

What’s remote play

[dense furnace]

so my laptop doesnt have to be able to run ark as long as its within remote range of my desktop

[silent matrix]

Ohhhh

That’s a sweet gig bro

[dense furnace]

so now i can play ark in my closet at 3am and my mom wont walk upstairs and see me on the desktop:)

[sage vessel]

bruh all there are like 10 summoners and they all instantly tp to my face when I enter rockwells innards

[dense furnace]

play ragnarok instead

[silent matrix]

I like rockwell’s guts

They’re full of healthy bacteria

[dense furnace]

idk seems a little imbalanced

maybe craft some kombucha to help aid his internal microbiome

[eternal oasis]

Is I hard to raise things with a snow owl

[dense furnace]

what kind of SP settings do you guys use?

[long flicker]

60x raising, 0.03x imprint, 2 minute breeding interval, 2.5x taming,2x xp, rest official settings

y tho

[stone steeple]

what time do server rates go back to normal for the UK?

[long flicker]

what about it is op?

breeding interval?

[verbal valve]

anybady wanna talk or play with me?

[long flicker]

well you have to hatch on average 100-200 eggs to get one desirable mutation

[stone steeple]

asking questions and getting an intelligent response seems impossible

[long flicker]

to be able to do that in singleplayer without using floating dinos, so around 5-6 females, and without growing old, I need a short breeding interval

[verbal valve]

wanna vc?

[long flicker]

wdym

[verbal valve]

um okay

i just wanted to play

[long flicker]

you're playstation, they're xbox
can't crossplay anyway

[verbal valve]

ah okay

[stone steeple]

Anyone know when 2x ends for the UK

[long flicker]

you'll have to, unless you want to boost stats

probably have singleplayer settings turned on

[verbal valve]

this lystarozaur really dont like me

[long flicker]

you definitely broke something

you should reset your settings

[stone steeple]

are your argys high melee?

dayumm xD i use argys for weight only xD

some of mine when levelled end up with over 10k weight

[long flicker]

that is pretty damn boosted

[stone steeple]

my rexs have 1.2k melee

[long flicker]

rexes are nice but not very useful on extinction

[stone steeple]

and like 40k hp at pop

[long flicker]

official be like

they spawn next to snow zone

[stone steeple]

hey i aint scared to admit im a pve offi bob xD

[long flicker]

I'm a singleplayer bob

[stone steeple]

i play SP on pc for mods, Offi on xbox to hang with friends

[dense furnace]

rag is almost done downloading, i can actually start my playthrough soon

what map are you on?

ah

im excited for ragnarok, it looks pretty good

[stone steeple]

on my SP im playing lost island right now

[dense furnace]

no ab forest but thats fine

[long flicker]

D:

[long flicker]

it's pretty basic compared to some of the newer shit, but still pretty nice

[stone steeple]

Ab and me have a bad history

[long flicker]

ab and me have a nice history

I love spinos, I love megalos, I love ravagers, I love karkinos

[stone steeple]

i love the tames, just map layout and me dont agree

[dense furnace]

im looking for a nice middleground between the island and one of the wacky mode maps

[long flicker]

wacky?

[long flicker]

aah, what about it did you not like?

I do like the map, it's really pretty and relatively balanced, I just don't like how annoying traversal is without a drake

[stone steeple]

my exact issue

[long flicker]

I get on my spino or karkinos and I have to go on a fucking odyssey just to get a dimetrodon

[stone steeple]

and i dont have a steady enough hand for that kinda map xD

[long flicker]

I snipe in fps games but my aim still fucking sucks

[dense furnace]

i love snipers in any game

[long flicker]

0
you don't want to bring one

[dense furnace]

enough

[stone steeple]

gigas on quetz platforms

[long flicker]

regular titan fight, bring like 4 or 5 good gigas and you're good
KT fight, bring a hundred or so gigas, a good mek and the titans for beta
gamma you should be good with either only gigas or only titans, I'm not sure tho
alpha, you want gigas, titans and of course the mega mek

oh you need to

[stone steeple]

i keep a mega mech cryod just incase i wanna join alpha KT

[long flicker]

king titan would've been the hardest bossfight if he wasn't an open world boss

[long flicker]

that smells like exploit

[stone steeple]

nope

[long flicker]

how did you cryo the mega mek

I wanna try it myself

[dense furnace]

whenever i try to press play on rag it brings me to the ragnarok steam page but rag is already in my library and installed

[stone steeple]

i cryod mine on offi

[long flicker]

download centre

[stone steeple]

ouch

[dense furnace]

the center? like the map?

[stone steeple]

just walked up and cryo'd it, apparently doable on Gen2 Offi

[long flicker]

yeah

[long flicker]

how do you get a mega mek on gen 2

[dense furnace]

why?

[stone steeple]

bp

[long flicker]

that's a regular mek

[dense furnace]

i dont have time to download a whole other map, why would i download center when i wanna play on ragnarok?

[stone steeple]

difference?

[long flicker]

it's bugged, you need to own the centre

[stone steeple]

cos compared to exo its huge

[dense furnace]

bruh

[long flicker]

mega mek is about the height of the king titan

and has stats rivalling the king titan

[dense furnace]

how is such a fundamental issue in DLC functionality overlooked??

[long flicker]

no sweet clue

[stone steeple]

too many meks 🤔

[dense furnace]

:'(

[long flicker]

there's 3

[dense furnace]

and i spent all that time downloading ragnarok...

[stone steeple]

i mean i have the exo and the extinction mek

so is the mega mek locked to extinction?

[long flicker]

you make it temporarily during alpha KT fight by combining 4 meks

[stone steeple]

ahh ok

[long flicker]

you get the mek module for it by beating beta KT

[stone steeple]

i got mine through bp from a friend but yea (havent done titans yet on my offi char and not played extinction on sp yet)

[dense furnace]

what is an average amount of mods for the game to still run fine?

i have 19, is that too many?

[fluid brook]

Nah, enough, at least for the server I was playing on

[dense furnace]

idk how long is a normal load time so i cant tell if my game crashed or if its just kinda frozen but still loading

[fluid brook]

Still loading

Always does same to me

[dense furnace]

okie

the screen is black but for an unmoving progress bar in the bottom left and an unchanging FPS counter in top right

[fluid brook]

Should took you about 20 m for 19 mods with an hdd, but depends of the size of mods

[dense furnace]

most of them are pretty small, i have some that are probably bigger like dino storage and S+

[fluid brook]

Yea, so should be fast, but btw even Dino storage is small

[wind ice]

TeK force field creates a radiation free area within it right?

I think it does at least

Making a breeding area in the red zone on ab and want to be able to breed normal Dino

[pliant locust]

Only the s+ one does that afaik

[long flicker]

number doesn't matter, it's how heavy the mods are

[tropic egret]

Any luck??

[dense furnace]

the center went a kajillion times faster than rag so thats good

[graceful finch]

what are some things every ark player should do?

I’m kinda stuck and don’t know what to go for

[delicate harbor]

what are you trying to do? if youre new just stick to crafting and taming easier creatures. at some point you'll be stuck with a massive army and storage filled with OP loot, so enjoy the journey and take your time

[long flicker]

most of them are things you get to know on your own as you play

[long flicker]

having a final goal in mind is a good thing, my final goal is mutating a list of dinos, beating all the bosses and taming every tamable dino

[graceful finch]

Now that I think about it I should get some resources gathering Dino’s

I’ve been putting that off for quite a while

When am I ready for caves?

[long flicker]

depends on the cave

some cave you can do with a saber, another might be best done with a yuty

[opal meteor]

How much dmg does a lightning ray do?

[long flicker]

25 per tick base damage

[graceful finch]

What should the sabers stats be

I also have a thylacoleo

[delicate harbor]

what map for the caves?

[graceful finch]

The Island

[long flicker]

it's best to use a bary or megatherium for island land caves

[graceful finch]

Oh alright

[long flicker]

bary can be better for some caves since they have water parts

apart from snow cave, which is best done with a yuty

[graceful finch]

I’ll get a bary then

[long flicker]

just any high level imprinted bary is enough most of the time

[delicate harbor]

other than the snow cave and one of the swamp/underwater caves you can get by with a small sized mount, the one on carno island requires either jumping or grappling though

[graceful finch]

but yutys are a pain in the ass to tame

[long flicker]

you need one for bossfights anyway

can netgun them which makes it a lot easier now

[delicate harbor]

snow cave you'll want grenades or a wolf to sniff out purlovias, a big tame such as a rex to clear space and several pieces of fur/flak armor, med brews and buff food

also cryopods

[graceful finch]

Isn’t that for genesis

[long flicker]

well yeah you can transfer around to learn all the engrams

[static fjord]

why so much preparation? you can skip most of that and use a yuty and some med brews

[graceful finch]

Well, I know what I’m gonna be doing today

[long flicker]

I know too
Imma be bored

[graceful finch]

I hope I can get my stuff back from the yuty when I die

[delicate harbor]

because the guy is new

hell im not new and im better safe than sorry, if you wanna parkour naked be my guest just dont tell a bob to do that

[graceful finch]

Wait what

[static fjord]

theres parkour in the snow cave????

[long flicker]

parkour naked? in the snow cave?

[static fjord]

i got through just with a yuty and no cryopods fine, the roar pushes purlovia out of the ground so grenades and wolfs are useless, and yuties dont aggro the purlovias to begin with

[long flicker]

I like wolves D:

[graceful finch]

What level yuty should I go for

[long flicker]

135 or above

[graceful finch]

And how do I eliminate its carno posse

[junior mirage]

Wow. Everyone died bc i saved and reloaded on the surface -.-

[long flicker]

you take a gun, and you point it at them

[graceful finch]

That high? I’m in for a wild ride

[long flicker]

and then you shoot

[long flicker]

that's the only level worth taming for any dino you're going for, apart from gatherers if you're desperate

[graceful finch]

Oh alright

[long flicker]

you're on the island right

[graceful finch]

Yes

[long flicker]

EGS or steam

[graceful finch]

Steam

[long flicker]

I'd suggest getting a mod called CDL, without it getting high level dinos is too much of a pain

[graceful finch]

I’m playing on a server that’s not mine

[static fjord]

you can get by with just level 90 or so yuties, they dont need to be that good for bossfights but the snow cave would be actual cancer without a good yuty.

[junior mirage]

Theres no way to revive dead dinos i guess

[graceful finch]

I do not believe there is

Necromancy is not part of ark iirc

[long flicker]

cluster or only island?

[graceful finch]

Cluster I think

[long flicker]

then get your dinos from the free maps or genesis, other maps have an AWFUL level distribution

[graceful finch]

What free maps

[long flicker]

free DLC's

centre, rag, valg, CI and LI

[graceful finch]

Oh

[junior mirage]

How can dinos even die in the middle of the night by fire wtf

[graceful finch]

How do I switch

[static fjord]

i think you should experience the "base" island experience.

[long flicker]

transfer

[long flicker]

mm
spending 20 hours trying to tame bossfighters, the "base" experience

[delicate harbor]

go to an obelisk

[long flicker]

I'm not kidding, I spent 5 hours looking for my argy

[graceful finch]

Ooh what level

[static fjord]

okay but on average it takes me like 30m.

[long flicker]

on the island?

[static fjord]

yeah.

[long flicker]

135+?

[static fjord]

yeah.

[long flicker]

how the fuck

[delicate harbor]

my ass

[graceful finch]

I found a level 150 argy just wandering carno island

It’s mine now

[long flicker]

I refuse to believe that unless you have like 5x dino cap

[delicate harbor]

hes probably talking some easy spawns too

[static fjord]

i have the default.

[delicate harbor]

get a 150 spino on the island this decade i dare you

[long flicker]

are you talking about fucking dodos or something

it took me on average 2 hours or so for getting my good sabers

[untold flint]

What stats should i be focusing on when single player?

[static fjord]

spinos and argies are completely different, one is a myth and the other is everywher

but like i dont think the issue is that much about level distribution for spinos because i couldnt even find 1 to begin with.

[long flicker]

yeah I'm talking about argies

[graceful finch]

Why does my high level argy get 90 points of stamina a level when my low level one gets 45

[long flicker]

wivern, explain

I'm too tired

[static fjord]

they increase their stats based on a percentage of their base stats so higher levels gain more of a stat but the same %

[long flicker]

oh found it

[graceful finch]

Ah alright

[junior mirage]

Oh well just loaded a backup as i guess it was a bug

[static fjord]

also why do you need so many high levels for the island.

[graceful finch]

Idk

[junior mirage]

Its always good to have high levs. So why not? xD

[graceful finch]

I’m just flying around looking for high level things to forcefully take back to base

[long flicker]

why would I tame a level 50

[static fjord]

because theyre harder to find.

[long flicker]

low level dinos are just burdens, I'd much rather transfer off

[delicate harbor]

man you guys love to bicker over pointless shit

if you want good tames go to ragnarok

[long flicker]

you haven't seen our arguments about voidwyrms

[static fjord]

like in terms of argies or bossfighters obviously get a higher level only but for cave runners i dont see why you need such top tier dinos when you can get by with your bang average level 90s.

[long flicker]

because it takes less effort to get a high level by transferring off

[static fjord]

granted you might need to bring a mate boost or 2

[graceful finch]

I’ll need a high level yuty for the bosses right

[static fjord]

i dont like transferring to get my dinos but do what you like.

aside from dragon and overseer no

[graceful finch]

I mean

[long flicker]

I don't transfer off these days since I have CDL

[delicate harbor]

you dont need to do anything, you can spawn all the tames you want, spawn items for achievments. theres no need to do anything. hell you dont even need to buy the game its 5 years old or so and the same problems plague it since day 1

[static fjord]

the yuty doesnt get hit much if at all in broodmother or megapithecus

[graceful finch]

That’s like half of them

[long flicker]

with that logic
you don't need to exist,
existence is meaningless

[delicate harbor]

exactly

[long flicker]

so what's your point

[graceful finch]

Might as well get one anyway

[static fjord]

i dont understand why you hate people discussing about a game in a server about said game.

[delicate harbor]

ask wivern whats his point im following him

im taking part on the discussion if theres hate here its not coming from me

[long flicker]

I'm too confused, wivern you deal with this

imma be busy not existing

[delicate harbor]

your argument was that he doesnt need this and that, im doubling down on it, where is the hate?

[junior mirage]

Geez just let them discuss xD

[static fjord]

you're literally acting as if the problem is we're discussing about a game.

[long flicker]

I don't see how he could figuratively act like that but ok

[long flicker]

yes, I'm doing that again

[delicate harbor]

right down there i took part and presented the solution: move to ragnarok to pick tames

[long flicker]

but I get his point
he's saying you don't "need" anything but better shit is still nice to have

[graceful finch]

Wait does transferring drop your items

[long flicker]

especially since the better shit takes barely any extra effort to get

[delicate harbor]

you carry over whatever it is youre holding

[long flicker]

just
you need to get better at conveying your point

[graceful finch]

Oh

[static fjord]

it isnt a solution though, its just your opinion on whether to transfer or not for dinos.

[delicate harbor]

no, you need to get better at understanding my point, there was nothing there to be confused about

[graceful finch]

How much faster is ragnarok for tames

[long flicker]

this was directed towards you, Llc

[static fjord]

whos being confused.

[long flicker]

me

[delicate harbor]

how is transfering to pick up dinos not a solution to a map where theyre hard to find? why isnt it a solution? because you dont want it to be?

[static fjord]

because some people dont want to do that because it might ruin the experience?

[delicate harbor]

Llc — Today at 10:01 AM
no, you need to get better at understanding my point, there was nothing there to be confused about

[long flicker]

there's a quote feature, use it

[delicate harbor]

then dont transfer and do something else, the solution is there, you not wanting it is your problem

[long flicker]

"ruin the experience" how tho?

[graceful finch]

Is it a bit or it makes a huge difference

[long flicker]

there was clearly something there to be confused about if I was confused

[delicate harbor]

no, you could just read again or ask what youre confused about

[static fjord]

i dont know about you but i'd rather keep my transfers for later because eventually you're going to be bringing level 300 dinos because you're too lazy to tame your own dinos.

well it's your choice to not transfer, but it's not like it'll "ruin the experience"
it's a feature, you can use it
it's like saying "using terror birds might ruin the experience"

[delicate harbor]

youre still getting your dinos just from elsewhere, if youre too stubborn to transfer again thats a you thing

[graceful finch]

How much better is ragnarok for dinos

[delicate harbor]

its much better in general, more spawns, better spawns, mutton avaliable better than any other map

[static fjord]

just as good as genesis and all the free dlcs.

[long flicker]

yeah they should change the other maps already

island, scorched, ab and ext are getting left out

[static fjord]

if you straight up just want good dinos then gen 2 is by far the easiest way, ovis arent hard to find, its super easy and it has almost every dino in the game.

[delicate harbor]

personally i just tame on genesis/aberration because i prefer the skins there but if i was in a hurry id go ragnarok alll day for all you can find there

[graceful finch]

I want high level dinos

[static fjord]

you might need a brain to tame something on the free dlcs but on gen 2 you can just go auto pilot.

[long flicker]

then transferring to a free map or genesis is your best bet

[graceful finch]

Alright

I can transfer back right

[long flicker]

of course

[graceful finch]

Do I need cryopods

[delicate harbor]

if you dont care about the island id just go there to do bosses, the map has nothing going on for it other than nostalgia

either cryopods or upload the creature, it goes in naked though so pick the saddle on the ground

[long flicker]

yep

[graceful finch]

Where will it end up

If I upload

[long flicker]

uploading the creature can do bad shit, it's better to use cryopods

[graceful finch]

Alright

How dangerous is gen 2

[static fjord]

rag is one of the easier options for good dinos, but i like gen 1 because its more balanced, a challenge and has the better level distribution.

[long flicker]

level dist is same as rag

[static fjord]

you dont even need a brain to survive, you get a tek suit on spawn.

[long flicker]

I can't fucking type

[graceful finch]

Wait what

[delicate harbor]

there are two sides, stay on the right side until you get your bearings

[long flicker]

yep

[delicate harbor]

left side is where the bad shit stays

[graceful finch]

I haven’t beaten bosses tho

[long flicker]

yeah gen 2 just gives a free tek suit

[static fjord]

one side is green and has like no threats and the other is challenging but you have a tek suit so what.

[long flicker]

worst decision I'd say
I disabled it

[delicate harbor]

you spawn with the thing and its infinite you dont need engrams

[graceful finch]

What

[long flicker]

I might end up enabling it when I unlock tek suit

[graceful finch]

Does it come with you

[long flicker]

every time you spawn

[static fjord]

its so unbalanced i'd recommend not using it, or at least locking it behind x point of y amount of missions.

[delicate harbor]

no, its map exclusive

[graceful finch]

Alright

[long flicker]

oh you meant transfer

[static fjord]

you can transfer it but it needs tekgram and element outside gen 2.

[long flicker]

beat me to it

[delicate harbor]

if you want to level and settle fast just spawn on genesis 2 and spam the meawing race mission

[graceful finch]

Oh alright

[long flicker]

yeah I really don't like their decision of adding that free tek suit

[static fjord]

there could of been some things they could of done to make it more balanced but its difficult considering youre seen equipping it in gen 1

[long flicker]

have not of
but yeah

[graceful finch]

What gun should I get for dps

[long flicker]

do's?

[graceful finch]

frick autocorrect

[delicate harbor]

shotgun

[long flicker]

pump action shotgun

[delicate harbor]

take pistol, tek rifle, both come from missions and drops

[static fjord]

comp bow and fab sniper are also great options.

[long flicker]

comp bows are lacking in dps but are still great

[delicate harbor]

on genesis 2 you dont even need to grind resources just throw shit from drops in a grinder and buy from the shop what youre missing

[static fjord]

the main thing is their arrows dont need gunpowder, super cheap and you get the ammo back too.

[long flicker]

man I wanna play minecraft

[graceful finch]

How much ammo for the shotty

[long flicker]

wdym

[static fjord]

for what

like general usage? 100-200 is good.

[graceful finch]

How much ammo should I get

Alright

[long flicker]

idk I just end up using dinos anyway

[static fjord]

theyre pretty expensive in terms of gunpowder though, they need 3 simple bullets and to make those simple bullets into shells they take more gunpowder

[graceful finch]

Ik

[static fjord]

if youre too lazy i recommend around 50 because i doubt you'd be using more than that when you go outside your base.

[long flicker]

if you're even lazier then I recommend just using a dino

[static fjord]

or a comp bow because their arrows dont break.

[untold flint]

Anyone able to help out with what stats i should be focusing on for single player?

[quick kernel]

@untold flint Speed at least 124 , to out run raptors, from there depends on your play style honestly

[terse sluice]

where can i found black pearls in the island?

[untold flint]

Thank you 🙂

I've got 300 weight atm then i started putting points into health and fortitude

got 20 fort and 180 health

[fluid brook]

by killing Eurypterids

[terse sluice]

ty

[shrewd flower]

question

trying to tame a basi and the thing wont eat any eggs (useing void eggs)

any idea on how to fix

[delicate harbor]

basilos eat meat or kibble

[fluid brook]

it have to be fertilized , is it ?

[shrewd flower]

the large snake

[fluid brook]

Basilisk XD

[delicate harbor]

ah basilisk my bad...

[shrewd flower]

and yes they are

left render for a bit and didnt work

[delicate harbor]

basilisk has to be aggroed and attack to eat, or you can go camouflaged with a drake that works too, also dont let it burrow or you lose TE

[fluid brook]

did it lost some hp ?

[shrewd flower]

yea it lost about 200 hp

[fluid brook]

it have to be fully recovered to eat some , and even fully recevered i'm not sure than it'll eat some ( last time i tried , it worked)

[delicate harbor]

bring a corpse for it to eat and regain health

[shrewd flower]

will feed it some dodo's to help it heal

[unkempt forge]

Question if a wyvern spawns, is it graunted to have an egg somewhere?

[fluid brook]

no

[unkempt forge]

So theres a chance the 160 lightning i killed has no egg

[fluid brook]

yea XD

[unkempt forge]

Damn

[delicate harbor]

its just a reference but its a good one

you wont have an egg per drake/wyvern/magma though

[unkempt forge]

Big sad

Every other wyvern wasn't even 100

Btw could i steal a magma eggwith a monke?

[fluid brook]

no ,cuz magma can kill you while riding

[delicate harbor]

you'll be at a risk you dont need to

[unkempt forge]

I'd lure them out then kill em outside

[delicate harbor]

for magma eggs id advise either some gigas or a rock drake with good stamina for camouflage

[unkempt forge]

I'm playing LI only on sp and i have no gigas

[delicate harbor]

for pure lost island with no cluster support id take rexes there myself

[fluid brook]

last time i used wyverns

[delicate harbor]

could work too if you can dodge and kill quickly enough

[unkempt forge]

Killed one

Think it might've been slightly glitched tho

[pastel hemlock]

Yo, folks!

What's the best place to farm for therizinosaurus saddles blueprints?

The island

[unkempt forge]

The things just don't react properley after being lured out and shooting a few times?

[solemn bronze]

they should. The magmasaurs are super aggressive once you've been in their cave even before you steal an egg

[fluid brook]

I'd say ice cave , but super dangerous , or mby deep sea loot crates

[unkempt forge]

Yeah i know

I killed 2 seperatly, they shot twice then didn't run or attack when i got in their face

[solemn bronze]

may be a glitch for them then. They followed me out and kept trying to melt me and/or set on fire.

XD

I had luck with pt and a whip. high stam for pt. just gotta watch the fireballs.

[shrewd flower]

just got the snake to full hp and it nomed an egg so that worked out

[fluid brook]

nice , just as i experted 🙂

[shrewd flower]

i killed another snake and fed it to this one

the weak will feed the strong

[delicate harbor]

dont let the left catch you saying that

[unkempt forge]

Holy shit one just shot backwards

Didn't kill me cause it missed a lil hut damn

[pastel hemlock]

@fluid brook what is the best way to clear it?

It's the only cave left for me
