ark-survival-ascended

[torpid hemlock]

better than what

[cursive scaffold]

not really but if youve already got them they'll certainly do the trick. For that fight that is.

[silent matrix]

I already have rexes but I found a level 300 female one and Ik where another 300 male is

[cursive scaffold]

sheesh thats high level. Save them for the dragon fight if you ever get to it but Rexes work fine too.

[torpid hemlock]

wait your wild level is 300 max?

or you leveled it up to 300

[cursive scaffold]

sounds like difficulty 10

[torpid hemlock]

yeah that's probably a better explanation

[hazy sleet]

Guys is sabertooth official from ark survival not like mod

[cursive scaffold]

its official

[torpid hemlock]

yeah

you will find them near mountains

and if you're on scorched just roaming around

[hazy sleet]

Its mod or not

[cursive scaffold]

not from a mod

[hazy sleet]

Ok

[torpid hemlock]

i took down 3 deathworms with one who's melee damage i got up to 1000

100% imprinted too maybe that played a role^

[grizzled path]

how.do.i.get.black.pearls.

[cursive scaffold]

They can be obtained by harvesting dead Trilobite, Deathworm, Eurypterid, Ammonite, Tusoteuthis, Alpha Tusoteuthis and Alpha Mosasaur. They can also drop as rare loot when catching fish with a Fishing Rod. Gacha can also produce many items as well as black pearls depending on the gacha. A tamed Phoenix will also rarely poop them out instead of its usual Silica Pearls.

[grizzled path]

thanks

[wispy frigate]

Ab/li/gen2 and probably other maps have them in the form of pickupable nodes too

[grizzled path]

long time no see perry the maewing

[wispy frigate]

Yes, and I shall have to say goodbye once more as I need sleep

[grizzled path]

ok

[torpid hemlock]

sounds like some anime cringe villian greeting a hero

[wispy frigate]

Long time no see acer

[cursive scaffold]

youve never heard somebody say "long time no see"?

[wispy frigate]

👀

[torpid hemlock]

touche

[torpid hemlock]

no i've heard people say long time no see but i've never seen someone say someone's full name after long time no see

like if he said long time no see perry that would be less cringe

[wispy frigate]

“Long time no see jim” vs “long time no see jim billy bob joe junior”

[torpid hemlock]

you made me chuckle, thank you

[cursive scaffold]

You wanna know Bobster's full name?

Robert Sterling

[wispy frigate]

Noobster646

[long flicker]

robert sterling

[torpid hemlock]

bobster646 #bigboi

[wispy frigate]

Beach bob

[torpid hemlock]

woah, fr?

[long flicker]

but if you want to get technical,

[wispy frigate]

The suspense is killing me

[long flicker]

Robert Sterling, The True Bob, Master of Horse, Lover of Maewing

[cursive scaffold]

its just a joke that separates Bob and Ster

[long flicker]

yeah you came up with it and I love it

[torpid hemlock]

perry i would love to play with you sometime you seem like such a fun person to play ark with

but alas our consoles were not meant to be

[cursive scaffold]

Bob, i gotta say thanks for having me in your thoughts when you discuss servers with people. Recruitment is slow regardless but i do appreciate the shoutouts

[torpid hemlock]

btw sorry for being rude, i was unreasonably upset

[cursive scaffold]

ppl dont stick around, they think the settings are too hard

ARK brings out the most angry version of us

[wispy frigate]

Lemme guess 1.5x xp isn’t high enough?

[cursive scaffold]

its 1x

[wispy frigate]

Idk your rates but that sounds like your average unofficial pve player

[cursive scaffold]

and i think crafting is .25x. Everything else is only slightly boosed

i think its based around 8 hours to raise a giga, 1 hour to tame one

And stacks are only doubled

[long flicker]

his rates are pretty average

[cursive scaffold]

Bob actually helped me think of them for the owner, even tho he dont play on it haha

i just dont have time to sit around and advertise cuz as soon as it went live, i moved and got a day job

[long flicker]

his is the only good server I know so I recommend it to others whenever they ask for a server that sounds similar in rates

[wispy frigate]

Anyways I’m gonna go to sleep, gn all

[long flicker]

like any other infuriating game

[cursive scaffold]

i think if it werent for the few people playing on it that are patreon subscribers, it would have been merged with the more casual, typical unofficial cluster. i think im the only non-subscriber that plays there

[cursive scaffold]

yeah Acer lost a lot of progress. I woulda been pissed too.

[torpid hemlock]

thanks

[long flicker]

good night!

[cursive scaffold]

goodnight!

[torpid hemlock]

goodnight sweet prince perry!

btw @cursive scaffold did you have your pfp made or did you make it yourself? im a gfx artist and i'd like to know how to make that sorta stuff

[cursive scaffold]

i tried getting a gfx artist to make one like this, but the result was the worst thing ive ever spent money on, so i pored over hundreds of stocks of vector art until i found this one and payed like $25 for the license

i figured paying for a general use license was the same as paying a gfx artist

[torpid hemlock]

ahh right

well it's pretty good

[cursive scaffold]

the original are truely was bad

[torpid hemlock]

i made my own pfp

[cursive scaffold]

i was legit mad that the dude even sent me what he did lol

[torpid hemlock]

thankfully i've never had that happen to me

dont think i've ever had an unhappy customer

then again i am pretty new

[cursive scaffold]

i had a family crest that happened to be a stag on both sides of the family. So i went to him and said "make something like this (it was the fire fox logo and other similar vector pics of animals similar to my current pfp) but with red body and white antlers"

[torpid hemlock]

that doesnt seem too hard

[cursive scaffold]

he sent back like this...clearly hand drawn digital photo of a stag

[torpid hemlock]

OOOF

something i learnt? dont draw by hand

[cursive scaffold]

not a crisp corporate looking image

[torpid hemlock]

almost never works out unless you're really good

[cursive scaffold]

it coulda been abstract geometric shapes that vaguely looked like a deer and i woulda been more happy

[torpid hemlock]

which im not

[torpid hemlock]

all he would have had to have done is just take elements out of the stuff you sent him, edit it all out and change the colors

[cursive scaffold]

yeah your A looks good

[torpid hemlock]

i dont mean to slander someone trying to make a buck but cmon man 😂

[torpid hemlock]

thanks

[cursive scaffold]

it was like he traced the original crest stag

and redrew it

[torpid hemlock]

bruh moment

people like that i've seen give other artists a bad rap

[cursive scaffold]

but i found this current one and it had a moon to boot so i was happy with it.

[torpid hemlock]

yeah it looks clean

[cursive scaffold]

i got it at the same time as my username, which i went to some lotr subreddit and asked the elvish language experts to translate "sleeping deer". Idk, its corny but i wanted something unique and original.

my old gamer tag was a star wars reference and i hate the sequel trilogy so much

[torpid hemlock]

bruh i made my pfp first then typed the letter A into it and got Avenger, Amool, Aboiii and Acye

i decided to edit that last one to Acer

then ironically i got an acer laptop

[cursive scaffold]

well, i did think of the computer when i first saw your name

but Acer sounds like Ace, which makes you seem like youre a wiz or a hotshot

[torpid hemlock]

yeah

Ace also seemed way too simple

and kind of childish

so i just went for Acer

[cursive scaffold]

its simple but good

[torpid hemlock]

though i think no matter how much time or money we put into our pfps and names we will never beat a fictional flying platypus with a fedora

[cursive scaffold]

anybody coulda thought of that, but he was the first here lmao

i wonder what Perry was before Gen 2's release

[torpid hemlock]

probably rocky the rock golem

[graceful lichen]

Can anyone tell me about the bosses on the Ragnarok map? I just know there is some kind of blue golem there and that's it

[torpid hemlock]

not sure i dont play non story maps

[cursive scaffold]

There's three. The Lava Golem, the Ice Queen, and the Spirit Beasts.
Then there's the Arena where you fight the Dragon and Manticore at the same time.

[torpid hemlock]

wait what dragon and manticore simultaneously?

how tf is someone supposed to beat that

[cursive scaffold]

The Center, Ragnarok, and Valguero have you fighting multiple bosses at once. Theyre far weaker than their Island and SE counterparts.

[torpid hemlock]

oh thank god that makes more sense

[cursive scaffold]

Center is Gorilla and Spider
Val is Gorilla, Dragon and Manticore

[torpid hemlock]

imagine saying gorilla and not big monke

[cursive scaffold]

Valguero's arena is the easiest by far

[torpid hemlock]

or harambe

[cursive scaffold]

i was gonna say monke but i deleted it lmao

cuz theres a lot of monke

[prisma sand]

Big monke is the lost island boss I thought

[cursive scaffold]

Monke II

[slender nacelle]

Whats a good location on the island for a cliffside house?

[torpid hemlock]

a cliff

duh

[young night]

😂😂

[fickle karma]

Arknif you ever see this plz let us transfer all boss fighting heads

[hazy sleet]

Guys how many does ark survival have

[torpid hemlock]

what

[hazy sleet]

I mean the map

How many map

[torpid hemlock]

how many maps ark has?

9

but 5 of them you have to pay for

[hazy sleet]

Oh

[summer ibex]

Or just have xbox game pass or pc game pass

[torpid hemlock]

yes but lost island has pretty much all of the creatures

also @hazy sleet english isnt your first language is it?

[hazy sleet]

Yeah

[torpid hemlock]

lol

[hazy sleet]

😂

is sabertooth in every map

[summer ibex]

Maybe, I think there found in the jungle

[torpid hemlock]

yes

[hazy sleet]

Ok

[torpid hemlock]

but listen

before you go

try and get higher level sabertooths, okay? low level ones are very bad

[summer ibex]

Aren't sabertooths in trees tho?

[hazy sleet]

Ok

[torpid hemlock]

trees?

[hazy sleet]

Is 150 level sabertooth good i find one

[torpid hemlock]

150 is max level

tame it

[summer ibex]

I mean, pretty sure something jumped out from the tree and grabbed me off my wyvern

[torpid hemlock]

those are thylacoleo

you're probably dead

[summer ibex]

Ohh, I am

But, I wyvern killed it.

[torpid hemlock]

yeah ofc but thylacoleo are something you have to watch out for

[summer ibex]

Yeah, got it

[hazy sleet]

Ok

[summer ibex]

I think I have a thylacleo actually- there the guys that can climb walls and jump high right?

[torpid hemlock]

yeah

to avoid thylacoleo you can use snow owl predator vision

it will clearly outline them

but yeah if you get grabbed you can whip out guns while it's chewing on you

[summer ibex]

Yeah, but snow owls are slower then wyverns.

And quite powerfuler

[torpid hemlock]

imagine being a hungry tiger who grabs you off a pteranodon with peak precision finally getting a meal for the person to yell "what is wrong with me today?" as the human whips out a shotgun and blows you to bits

[torpid hemlock]

yeah but i think their more fun

and no snow owls are faster if you swoop properly

i use them to get wyvern eggs

[summer ibex]

I don't use mine. I gotta get this female rised before I start to bring them there

[torpid hemlock]

okay, you can also use snow owls to avoid getting wyvern milk and just heal the baby

just thought i'd mention that

[summer ibex]

I-

Wait-

[torpid hemlock]

you didnt know that?

[summer ibex]

No

[torpid hemlock]

when combined with a daeodon you can basically go afk

if it asks for wyvern milk for imprint just cryopod it throw it back out and then it will want a cuddle (usually)

[summer ibex]

Where do you find daeodons

[torpid hemlock]

which map are you on?

[summer ibex]

Lagnarok

[ashen quarry]

what time is lost enabled ???

[torpid hemlock]

well i dont play ragnarok but just google where daeodons are found

just get a low level one, their really easy to tame and they have a healing ability which drains a lot of their food

wont even need a narcotic

low level and high level heal the same amount too

they can be bola'd AND picked up by wyverns / argents

[summer ibex]

Cool, wait are those the guys you have to let kill your tames?

[torpid hemlock]

oh god no those are troodons

those turds dont deserve to exist

[summer ibex]

Tell me about it

[torpid hemlock]

daeodons are just your standard knock out and shove meat up the backside tame

[summer ibex]

Thank god

[torpid hemlock]

btw with daeodons i recommend using regular meat to tame them

[hallow iron]

Can you use pliers on a chainsaw to repair it?

[torpid hemlock]

because they lose so much food when using their ability, there is no need to get prime

they will just eat it all up instantly

PLUS they are a must have for boss fights

[torpid hemlock]

iirc yes

[summer ibex]

You talking about the guy they looks like a pig mixed with a bore?

[torpid hemlock]

yeah! Also boar*

on dododex if you search pig they also come up

[cosmic mantle]

can you use meat for baby wyverns and just avoid the milk?

[torpid hemlock]

nope, baby wyverns will only eat milk

even if you force feed it it will have no effect

[summer ibex]

That's what I did

[torpid hemlock]

you can find tons of wyvern traps on youtube and many are super cheap and easy

[cosmic mantle]

alr then

[torpid hemlock]

yeah there you go

[summer ibex]

That only works for voidwyverns

[torpid hemlock]

i recommend captain fatdogs trap, if you dont want to get wyvern milk just get a daeodon and snow owl

gtg for now @ me if you have any questions ill answer once im back

[summer ibex]

And i think crystal wyverns

[glass goblet]

whats the math to determine a proper imprint setting? i cant seem to find it and despite how much i change it it doesnt work very well

[dry narwhal]

I'm playing on PC in official pve server with my friends in same tribe and we just noticed tame limit says 401/500 while we don't even have half of it outside of cryopod. Could anyone please explain how this number counted?

[sage plaza]

Anyone know how to transfer kibble from genesis 2? keeps resetting the timer and not sure why

[oak void]

Got loads of stryders?

[worthy pagoda]

How to recharge cryopod (my cryopod showing 3d 11h

[dry narwhal]

I think we have 10 or so

[fringe tulip]

When will the Lost Island cluster open? At what time?

[oak void]

That's why, they count as multiple as far as I'm aware

[dry narwhal]

oh ok...i transfer one and check. Thanks for info!

[silent matrix]

how do i show dmg numbers im playing after 2 years i forgot 🥲

[oak void]

No worries hope it helps

[oak void]

Think it's a setting before you load in the world, or if you're unnofficial the admin will have to enable it. For offical servers you can't enable

[silent matrix]

ok

[dry narwhal]

If it was made in gen2 you should be able to as I can make kibble in gen2 and transfer to another. If it was made in another map then you can't as far as I know.

[shell blade]

Otherwise, consumable items have always problrms with transfering no?

Especially prominent with eggs but the timer resets because of a bug iirc

[prisma sand]

Anything with a spoil timer can only be transferred 1 time. Which maps they’re uploaded and downloaded are irrelevant.

[shell blade]

I see

I find that kinda stupid but… probably pvp balance

[summer ibex]

You need a cryofridge

[hardy helm]

someone searching for a tribe mate

[summer ibex]

ahem I may not be admin but nor a helper but #735196267373920286

[hardy helm]

alrighty

[long flicker]

[versed jackal]

Cryo fridge

[split flint]

when serv opn for li?

[summer ibex]

Wdym?

[static fjord]

i assume hes asking when do transfers open for lost islamd

[prisma sand]

Today

[summer ibex]

ohhhhh

[verbal shore]

why the hell is my tek crop plot not getting any greenhouse effect?

[prisma sand]

Do you have it in a greenhouse?

[verbal shore]

yes

i was under the impression they would get greenhouse effect even if there is no sunlight as long as the crop plot is powered and under a greenhouse ceiling

[prisma sand]

All walls and ceilings are green house pieces?

[verbal shore]

yes

[prisma sand]

They do not but I’m pretty sure they go above 300 up to 500

Did you build it in a cave or the sunken forest?

[verbal shore]

underwater rathole

[worthy pagoda]

If I keep dino in cryopod in my inventory will it die?

[silent matrix]

No sun there.

[prisma sand]

Lol I think I know why you’re not getting greenhouse effect

[prisma sand]

Only if the cryopod runs outta juice

[worthy pagoda]

Coz I have babies which I hatched and I don't have food for them 😩

[versed jackal]

Yes it will

[verbal shore]

okay so the description it had in the wiki was just roleplay bs then?

fantastic

[worthy pagoda]

How to know that?

[versed jackal]

Unless theyre in a cryofridge, itll extend the timer there

[versed jackal]

U can also get a new crypod and put it in that one real quick

[worthy pagoda]

I m lvl 60 only
Someone gave me 3 cryo

[keen lintel]

Hey guys what time are the lost island transfers opening?

[prisma sand]

It has a spoil timer. Each cryopod lasts 30 days real time without being charged.

[worthy pagoda]

As long as cryopod has timer, dino in it safe?

[lofty dune]

when do transfers open

when do transfers open

[prisma sand]

Yes. Your babies won’t starve to death in a cryo. Their stats all freeze while cryod, if the cryopod runs out of charge the Dino inside will be lost.

[prisma sand]

Nobody knows man. Asking multiple times in every channel isn’t gonna change the answer.

[worthy pagoda]

Thanks for helping

[long flicker]

transfers for LI?

[prisma sand]

…You’re just being mean

[long flicker]

I'm asking

I don't see how that's being mean

[prisma sand]

I know your sneaky ways

[long flicker]

wat

I'm asking if the dude you responded to was referring to LI or not

[prisma sand]

Oh. Yes.

Sorry I blew up

[long flicker]

most of the time it's based on PST, I'd assume somewhere around 12 pm PST, 18th march

though of course there's no specific time given afaik

ugh internet keeps fucking off

[long flicker]

ye no worries, spammers can get real annoying

[proud compass]

the imprinting system makes me want to rip my hair out

why must it take me five minutes for you to be happy with your stupid walk

[torpid hemlock]

@long flicker im starting back on the island

[long flicker]

good luck

[static fjord]

are you going in circles while walking it

[torpid hemlock]

im not doing hardcore anymore

[proud compass]

Yea

[static fjord]

thats why then

[proud compass]

they cant walk out the gate

[torpid hemlock]

you need to go in a straight line

[static fjord]

if you go in a straight line then it gets the imprint in like 5 seconds

[proud compass]

i only have a small amount of property

[torpid hemlock]

welp i guess you dont want the imprint then

[static fjord]

you can do it outside your base

[long flicker]

walk it outside your property

[proud compass]

i worked hard on the metal things

[long flicker]

don't blame you

[proud compass]

they cant fit through the gate

[long flicker]

are you on pve or pvp?

[proud compass]

single player

[long flicker]

metal structures are useless on pve/singleplayer

[torpid hemlock]

just cryo it

[static fjord]

cryo it outside

[proud compass]

i hate servers

[torpid hemlock]

or pick it up with a flyer

[long flicker]

they have no point apart from traps for certain dinos

[proud compass]

i dont have cryo pods unlocked yet

[long flicker]

then you don't need to breed

[proud compass]

im not breeding

[static fjord]

what dino are you imprinting for starters

[proud compass]

lightning wyvern

[long flicker]

ah it's a wyvern

bad idea to raise one before getting cryopods

[torpid hemlock]

^^

[proud compass]

i thought i unlocked them

[static fjord]

bad idea to raise one in a small base in general.

[long flicker]

true, they're massive

[proud compass]

It can fit them

[long flicker]

also, don't make a metal base next time unless you have an excess of metal

[static fjord]

metal structures are arguably easier to make than stone

[proud compass]

i have a metal rock in my base that respawns

[long flicker]

stone takes wood, thatch and stone
metal takes stone, chitin and metal

[torpid hemlock]

chitin?

[static fjord]

not if you raid beaver dams

[long flicker]

cementing paste

[wheat vapor]

Need that paste!

[proud compass]

im waiting for it to respawn so i can break a fence

[long flicker]

I need that paste for other shit

[torpid hemlock]

ah right

[static fjord]

you'd have a surplus of paste just from a few dams early game

[wheat vapor]

You could also use a frog as well but, that means finding bugs, though there are a few cave locations just...generous with them.

[long flicker]

I've been raiding dams for eons, never had a surplus
always need more paste

[static fjord]

tf are you building

[long flicker]

shit that needs paste

[static fjord]

everything that needs paste for me can usually be crafted with under 200 paste early to mid game

[proud compass]

i also only get 2% imprint no matter what i try

with all dinos

[static fjord]

you probably messed up the breeding settings

[long flicker]

ugh I keep randomly losing my connection

[proud compass]

i probably did

[long flicker]

which anime should I watch

[proud compass]

but i copied down what my friend told me to keep it at

[static fjord]

nober did you forget this is ark channel

[long flicker]

no, I did not

but I dislike general

[static fjord]

what did your friend tell you to keep it at

[proud compass]

mature speed 2.999
baby interval 0.01
baby grace 0.4

[long flicker]

baby interval?

you mean cuddle interval?

[proud compass]

yeah

[static fjord]

thats probably why, cuddle interval seems extremely low for 3 maturation

if it takes you like 10m per imprint then thats why

[proud compass]

he said he gets pretty high imprint from that

it takes a minute

[static fjord]

there you go then

the lower the cuddle interval, the less imprint you get

[long flicker]

cuddle interval is 600x smaller while maturation speed is 100x faster, should be fine

ffs what is up with the internet

[long flicker]

oh right

you'll want cuddle interval to be around 0.06

[proud compass]

but i only get up to 55-60 before they mature fully

alright

[spare anvil]

what time will they open the transfer to lost island ?any clue?

[proud compass]

i deleted the perimeter, so now i need to make a small house for a dung beetle to roam about

[static fjord]

you can use cages

[gray steeple]

Anyone have issue where all their cryod tames cryopods became empty? I’m in lost island ps5 offical ORP PvP

[meager siren]

can someone send me an invite link to inferno ark as it wont let me join for some reason

[strong hound]

when do server transfers open on official to new map

[keen lintel]

Can you Defend another tribe in small tribes?

Or will you get banned

[feral plover]

When is conquest wipe?

[muted portal]

No Time given right now

[manic path]

istg official ark players are so bad at the game it hurts. all they can do is cheat its always a hacker, duper or ddoser, I just raided the same base 4times. They ddosed the server 3times then gave up the 4th time I raided them. It saved when they had like 8heavys left and nobody in the base

[muted portal]

They Said no time

[muted portal]

So true thats why I dont Play official

[manic path]

I just meme on solo small tribes cause its so easy and I already have a capped character with every engram

Its just annoying how many cheaters there are

[feral plover]

Can tell me someone?

[muted portal]

If I would know I would answer you

[lofty leaf]

(PC) Anyone else unable to launch ark from the xbox app since this update? Or just me?

[feral plover]

Fair 😅

[hazy sleet]

Guys what should i tame i already have sabertooth,raptor

[static fjord]

an iguanodon

[hazy sleet]

What is that

[static fjord]

a herbivore that can change between bipedal and quadepedal. has infinite stamina in quadrepedal and is faster than most small dinos like sabers while having a good vertical jump in bipedal and good carry weight

[hazy sleet]

Ok

[tranquil geyser]

A argentavis

[hazy sleet]

Ok

Is wyvern good

[tranquil geyser]

Yes

[summer ibex]

You can't tame a wyvern-

[hazy sleet]

?

[summer ibex]

You have to rise one

[hazy sleet]

Oh

Ok

Do you have some sabertooth

[summer ibex]

Unless it's a Crystal wyvern, no the sabertooth can be tamed with knocking it out and shoving meat down its throat

[hazy sleet]

I know do you some sabertooth

[tranquil geyser]

I have a rex

[hazy sleet]

Wow

[tranquil geyser]

Super easy to tame

[summer ibex]

Not really- unless you trap. it Rex's have high heath and not very good dmg. So depending on there knock out stuff (forgot how to spell it) it could he decently hard because a rex can destroy everything but a tek wall if I'm correct

[tranquil geyser]

Just go on gen 2 and fly above it and shoot it there you go

[summer ibex]

Yeah, I do suppose that's could work aswell

But I'm talking about in like lagnarok or the island

[tranquil geyser]

You just shoot it when it is eating something and there you go

[muted portal]

No u can Just shoot and Run, Rex is slow as fuck, and rex can only destroy Wood so you can Trap it in Stone If U dont got movement

[tranquil geyser]

Yes

[vestal cedar]

Trying to get to the carno caverns, get right to the bottom of the castle at the water and my game crashes

[muted portal]

Yes

[slender silo]

There has been no announcement, but most pushes occur in the afternoon PST, early evening EST. I wouldn't expect it anytime soon.

[lusty solar]

God i hate when cheaters/hackers ddos their own servers on official to prevent getting wiped 😦 :/

[muted portal]

Thats why I dont Play official

[lusty solar]

I wish enforcement were better on the Classic/conquest servers

[silent matrix]

Dude the ark update Is so huge that I can't even download it

So guess I'm quitting ark cuz I can't really play it anymore

[hazy lintel]

Update was only 8 gigs for me, that’s a small download.

[humble sky]

did an update just get pushed out rn?

[visual flax]

could someone help me about my ini file? i have some question and u will be super helpfull.

[hazy lintel]

Yesterday for ps5 and Xbox

[muted portal]

What do you need ?

[muted portal]

Only for ps4

[turbid sapphire]

How does it work for the main official servers anyway for raiding/pvp...is it like 'server drops until both sides get approx 30-35 people per side' or

[fast wasp]

[loud elk]

😦

[drifting gorge]

are there any leeches on extinction? i need to know so i can stay the HELL AWAY from them

ah i remember the first time i got a leech stuck to my screen on ark. i almost vomited. i find those things disgusting, the way they drain blood from living creatures 🤢

[static horizon]

If i have ark on epic games and my friends has it on steam can we still play?

[cursive scaffold]

no leeches or lampreys on Ext

[slate widget]

you can play on servers that enable crossplay without mods

[calm vault]

hi

[static horizon]

How is there a tutorial for that?

[echo path]

@viral shore 4pm which timezone??

[drifting gorge]

whew, im safe then. any of those cool abberation creatures like the bulbdog or do i have to transfer them from that map to get them?

[ancient badge]

yes in official server

[cursive scaffold]

you'll have to transfer

[drifting gorge]

dang

[slate widget]

no? you can join any server that enables crossplay, they'll just be in the server menu

[static horizon]

Okay thanks

[cursive scaffold]

Desloate, do plug ins work on epic and steam crossplay servers?

[slate widget]

should look at other maps, the light pets are on a bunch of maps

[drifting gorge]

so whats yalls favorite dinos. mine is a tie between parasaur and lystrosaur

[slate widget]

no idea, I don't make servers.

[cursive scaffold]

tie between deino and shadowmane

[drifting gorge]

i recently heard about this shadowmane thing on the wiki page for the fish basket. its relatively new, from one of the genesis maps right?

[solar mason]

14:00 wich timezone lol

[turbid sapphire]

Gen 2 missions, if you are doing them with multiple people, does everyone get the same points (ie 30kish for Alpha mission) or are they split
I can't remember

[dull swan]

anyone wanna play??

[hallow saffron]

I do a lot of farming and a lot of breeding so... Stryder and Maewing.

[cursive scaffold]

yeah its a lion fish cat, not to be confused with a catfish. theyre a jack-of-all-trades tame with the exception of resource farming, they dont do that.

[tough yarrow]

Shown in your local time

[solar mason]

So lost island just opened up?

[drifting gorge]

ive never seen the stryder or maewing. it has been a good while since i played this game up until last night

imma look them up

[cursive scaffold]

those are both excellent tames

[tough yarrow]

Should be in 2 hours

[solar mason]

Soo ark announcement is off local past 14:00 by 5 min yet......

[hallow saffron]

Gen2 = Best DLC ever! (Although a bit OP. lol) You can get both there. Although you have to do a whole bunch of missions to tame a decent Stryder.

[narrow mortar]

have transfers on official started yet?

[slate widget]

maewing is also on lost island :P

[slate widget]

#announcements

[drifting gorge]

the genesis are the only dlc i dont have unfortunately -w- but im planning on getting them

[narrow mortar]

man 3 hours ok

[swift leaf]

Hello buddiez I hope y'all doing goodie

I have an issue with Lost Island where the terrain is grey squares

Has anyone ever heard of this and know a fix? Thanks in advance

[tough yarrow]

I am not sure how it is wrong for you but correct for others

[slate widget]

should be 2 hours

[narrow mortar]

its 11 am for me

so like 3 hours

[swift leaf]

Probably very much worth noting that I'm on Linux

[hallow saffron]

The missions in Gen1 and Gen2 add a whole new level of fun to the game. And you get rewarded with in-game currency that you can use to buy pretty much any resource you need.

[slate widget]

most likely has to do with discord incorrectly setting your local time, its not something we can fix :P

[swift leaf]

lolwat xD

nonono you don't get it I'm doing this to myself on purpose xD

[drifting gorge]

friendship ended with ragnarok then. genesis is my new best friend

[cursive scaffold]

idk if id consider the missions fun but the loot sure is nice.

[narrow mortar]

some are

[slender nacelle]

Whats the best location for a tree house base on the island?

[cursive scaffold]

some yea, i like the races a lot

[narrow mortar]

most are a fucking nightmare solo

especially alpha jesus

[cursive scaffold]

even simple ones like the alpha "collect the shining orbs" are awful in Lunar biome haha

[swift leaf]

I loved Ragnarok, now we play on Lost Island, i love it too

[narrow mortar]

find a spot you like

[swift leaf]

the Sinos, they're just ❤️ cute and useful

[slender nacelle]

Can you only build a tree house in redwoods

[swift leaf]

and I love the egg incubator too, altho AIUI it's a gen1 thing not specific to lost island

[narrow mortar]

it might work on ab

but yes

[slate widget]

tree plats only works on redwood trees, Ab uses cliff plats

[swift leaf]

friend uses cliff plats on lost island too

[slate widget]

I meant, ab added them :P

[drifting gorge]

dang i kinda, wanna transfer the character i started on extinction once i get genesis pass

[swift leaf]

lost island is really awesome

[slender nacelle]

Ok so I guess I will make a base in redwoods

[slate widget]

you can use them on any map if you got the engram

[narrow mortar]

abs tress count as redwood

[swift leaf]

we play self-hosted

[narrow mortar]

you can use sap taps on them and archas climb them too

i assume the same goes for tree plats

[slate widget]

some do some don't 🤷 but the cliff plats are more consistent on ab

[narrow mortar]

yeah ik, just saying it might work

[swift leaf]

side quesdtion while i'm at it

is it just me or the oil rock nodes in winter biome on lost island are impossibly difficult to recognize

if i don't use my gps and the resource map it's game over

[narrow mortar]

big black rocks are they not?

[dim lodge]

Bru wth i got 100 go of free space in my PlayStation and it says i need more, even after i deleted videos ?!

[drifting gorge]

how does transferring your character work if your using that dino storage mod and you have some souls in your inventory? everything work ok?

[dim lodge]

Dunno if its the right space for this

[swift leaf]

that's the thing ; on other maps they're vaguely conical and look like they''re made from boulders right? on lost island it doesn't seem to be the case

they look just as flat as normal rocks - but again i mean winter biome, with the snow

[narrow mortar]

console storage generally suck

[swift leaf]

apparently friend told me on the volcano side they look more like obsidian

i didn't look there but he's a seasoned player (way more than myself) so i believe him

[small scaffold]

How much wiggle room is there for imprinting because I didn't get an imprint during the baby state. Isn't the baby state where you get the 20% imprint and the rest are 9%s. There's only 10 imprint you get get on a dino right?

[runic agate]

hi got a question google didnt really help i saw yes and no's can someone on xbox play with someone on steam if not is there a way to get a steam save over to an epic account?

[cursive scaffold]

If your imprint % is higher than the maturation % after the imprint prompt you’re good

[small scaffold]

So you have to start an imprint immediately then?

Or can I end up catching up or passing up the maturation %?

[slate widget]

neither steam or epic can play with xbox. win10 (microsoft store) plays with xbox.

moving saves between steam and epic might work, but to win10 won't work

[runic agate]

oh thats wacky but makes sense

[slate widget]

which one

[runic agate]

first

cause win 10 store is bassically a xbox built in

[slate widget]

yes, the 2 microsoft stores can play together

they are also the same game so if you own one you own the other

[runic agate]

do you know if thats ever going to be a thing where i can play with xbox on steam?

[waxen jackal]

I’m confused bc servers aren’t open but I just saw someone on Gen 2 with a sinimacrops

[slate widget]

very much unlikely. they only added crossplay to new platforms, win10, epic, stadia.

plus the updates would have to come out at the same time which would be a big problem 😂

[runic agate]

i forget stadias a thing do people still use it lmao

[slate widget]

no idea.

it got ark tho :P

[runic agate]

lol

well lets hope they consider it for ark 2

[slate widget]

we can hope :P

[runic agate]

ok well ty for everything im gonna dip now have a good one

[mint socket]

how do I update my mods my friends cant join cause it says owner isn't running latest version of mods

[slate widget]

server?

[mint socket]

like friends server im just hosting non dedicated game

[slate widget]

if it doesn't auto update when you close the game, try deleting the mod files

there is a pin in #bobs-with-probs

[mint socket]

so like i need to lose my mods and redowload them?

[slate widget]

if they don't auto update yes.

[mint socket]

how do i know which one it is

[slate widget]

no idea.

[lunar sun]

when will p+ finally get an update? there is so much wrong!

[restive tartan]

It's abandoned

[cursive scaffold]

Is there like a mod that fixes P+?

[nova mist]

do you guys know what drops the most keratin/chitin

[light fractal]

Kill some turtles

Anyone know why the gaint squid isnt taking my tame?

[shut knoll]

Some1 wanna play some ark on ps4

[swift leaf]

S+? 😄

[lilac halo]

is it a gltich with ark or the server i play on that dinos eat all the food from a trough or maewing when theyre babies

[solar mason]

Once the evo event goes live, you can check #server-rates

The #announcements channel did say there was going to be one yes

[astral olive]

Anyone else always forget where you built your house in the start of the game so after you go out to gather resources you have to look for like 1½hours for ya house?

[spare oracle]

H

[astral stirrup]

you never pinned your aprox coords in the map, right?

[cosmic mantle]

why did most of my update progress just wipe

and why is the download size different for everybody

[slate widget]

@muted wind #735196255483068497

[tame drift]

when is update?

[sage plaza]

within the next 10-20 mins

servers already went down

[tame drift]

ok ty

[sage plaza]

all good

Anyone know what the evo event has? The steam community page hasnt updated

[rugged carbon]

wait do you have to update the game

[runic ruin]

2x taming harvest and xp

[sage plaza]

gotcha, thanks hado

[tame drift]

i hope breeding

[split thunder]

hey anyone wanna play?

[sage plaza]

doesnt look like it

most evo events dont have breeding

[proud moss]

nah mate -.-

[urban grotto]

dose the game have a update

[cunning kernel]

X2 harvest, taming, xp

[olive rover]

What is an evo event?

[sage plaza]

gives boosts, so for official servers for example you get 2x harvesting, taming, and experience, and for small tribes it might be the same, or like 3x

[worthy dagger]

why no breeding 😦

[pearl latch]

Why does the New Post says breed Event

[naive root]

what is an EVO EVENt???

[slow summit]

Evolution event = boosted rates

[naive root]

ok :D

[valid canyon]

New post says 2x breeding but it’s earlier they said 1x breeding. I imprinted my Dino and it’s still 1x

[lunar idol]

@viral shore event still is not active...

[cold valve]

Yea, Picture with rates says breeding included but babies aren't showing it. Also rates bots doesn't show breeding 2x

[regal yarrow]

Cryo the babies?

[lunar idol]

Now live rather

[jovial path]

Pls tel Dilog we’ll be getting to see either the Carcharodontosaurus concept art and or Andrewsarchus screenshots, I want to see the new content so badly.

[untold notch]

horseshoe crab looking thing

gives me a lot

[regal yarrow]

Depends on the map

If you are looking for the best way to get a million chitin, use a megatherium in the swamp cave

[bronze wing]

do mutagen bulbs reset timer after maintainace? or still remain the same (on gen2 rockwell innards that is)

[sage plaza]

Evo event imprinting isnt raised, is normal, like there isnt an evo event lol

wait thats so weird, its only for some dinos

[karmic pine]

I’m just curious it says hatching is 2X but my eggs are hatching at the standard rate anyone else experiencing this?

[sage plaza]

@viral shore sorry for the @, but it seems numerous people are still getting normal rates for hatching/raising/imprinting. Any clarification as to why would be amazing if you have such knowledge. Sorry if not, and for bothering.

[regal yarrow]

He doesnt get notified for @s lol

[sage plaza]

I know

but he'll the the (1) and wonder what it is maybe, better then not trying at all

Hopefully it gets fixed

[regal yarrow]

He doesnt get the (1) at all lol

[cursive scaffold]

make sure youre using a "fresh" tame or egg, as in, dropped or started mating AFTER the event went live

[sage plaza]

ok, like i said better then not trying

[regal yarrow]

if you really want to get the attention of the devs, then submitting a ticket is the only way

[sage plaza]

@cursive scaffold its inconsistant with that, some do and dont still, same with imprinting dinos you already had out/just threw out

[lilac halo]

how many shutgun bullets do i need for alpha island asscension with like 500% shotguns

[cursive scaffold]

bring liek 600 just in case

[lilac halo]

per person?

[cursive scaffold]

yeah, thats 50 reloads

[regal yarrow]

500% shotgun does like 1.5k per shot

[lilac halo]

is that for solo or few people?

[digital leaf]

not somewhere you wanna run out of ammo for any reason.

[regal yarrow]

Look at the total health of the alpha overseer, and bring like 1.5x the necessary amount

[digital leaf]

depends how good a shot you are, if you miss a lot bring more lol

[trim flare]

imprint bonus not applied yet

[sage plaza]

It is and isnt, half my tames got it, half didnt, no clear way to tell why either

[trim flare]

oh whack. my tames didnt get it

[silent matrix]

Is the evo event on right now?

[trim flare]

oh weell

[sage plaza]

@silent matrix yes but its bugged

[silent matrix]

Wdym by bugged

[sage plaza]

half the bonuses arnt working/are working inconsistently

[silent matrix]

Dam

[astral olive]

I rarely even use my map lol, I always forget it's an option🤣

[blazing badge]

why cant i open suplly drops, im playing on gen 2

[sage plaza]

might be a tree inside of it, try punching the drop

always happens to me

[blazing badge]

there is not

[sage plaza]

or if its like halfway in a rock, then its just bugged

[blazing badge]

it just says "supply drop"

[sage plaza]

yep

[karmic pine]

Well I sure hope they fix the evo event because it sure is lame to advertise all these bonuses to find out they aren’t being provided as advertised. Kinda leaves a sour taste in your mouth lol

[sage plaza]

i would say voice that, but they get so much shit for bugs, I dont think they care at this point

one of those "oh well, we'll try again next time" kinda deals

so we'll just have to ride out the event with the bonuses working half the time, or not at all

[karmic pine]

:/

[sharp plank]

Anyone looking to play? PC

[regal yarrow]

#735196255483068497

[rugged carbon]

are ragnarok and the center equally as hard

and if they are what is the easiest spawn for ragnarok

[regal yarrow]

Rag has more dino varieties

Center has a lot of cool base locations

[sage plaza]

I think top left of rag is the easiest

[rugged carbon]

so should I play the center or ragnarok first?

[regal yarrow]

The only spawn spots on rag are north side and one desert spot. Either the highlands or jungle are probably the best spawns on rag

[rugged carbon]

I heard ragnarok has a lot of flat places

[cursive scaffold]

it doesnt matter but you can probably skip the center entirely ||unless you really really really want a tek giga costume||

[silent matrix]

Reposting from general, anyone got a discord server or resources for trying to build a map in ARK?

[rugged carbon]

ive never tamed a giga before

[regal yarrow]

Unless you are playing pvp, the center isnt really that interesting after awhile

I would recommend lost island though if you are looking to start. Its got more going on than both center and rag, and its not a terribly difficult map

[cursive scaffold]

The center is just Island spawns, Rag has Island, all of SE except 1, and 2 extra dinos that spawn there.

The only thing The Center has going for it are wacky building locations and the tek giga costume from doing the boss.

[rugged carbon]

I just want a map where can I can build a good house somewhere flat

I dont play on servers

and one thats easy

[cursive scaffold]

Rag does indeed have many flat areas

[regal yarrow]

That is literally any map

If it is your first time ever playing ark, go rag, otherwise lost island is better

[olive rover]

Jesus the dinosaur path finding is horrendous

[rugged carbon]

Alright ill play lost island then

[cursive scaffold]

i feel bad for the center

it has some pretty areas but that map is kinda useless haha

[regal yarrow]

Its still one on the best maps for pvp

[cursive scaffold]

cuz of the holes?

[regal yarrow]

Yeah, its caves are amazing, and the ocean is big enough to hide most of the time

[rugged carbon]

How do I start playing on servers

Ive never played before do I just go on the chat and ask to be apart of a tribe

[cursive scaffold]

yeah i had a base in the ocean trench once haha. Something THe Center needs is to remove the setting so that you can build above the ground at a high distance.

[cursive scaffold]

well, you search in the servers, i suggest checking out some unofficials, then yeah you basically just ask haha

[regal yarrow]

On pve would recommend being in a tribe. Just work on farming and building yourself. If you dont like breeding, then maybe you could work out a trade for someones line

[rugged carbon]

Once I leave is my progress gone?

[regal yarrow]

Yeah

[cursive scaffold]

no, dont leave your previous tribe. It can merge

[rugged carbon]

I meant the server

[cursive scaffold]

oh yeah, its gone lol

[rugged carbon]

damn how do people get advanced in them

do they just leave their computers running or something

[regal yarrow]

On a server you dont have to be on for it to keep going

[worthy crypt]

I have a question. I can't seem to find the official server that I was in. I tried searching it up and everything but it won't show up at all

Does it mean it's just gone forever?

[regal yarrow]

Its probably just down

[worthy crypt]

Yeah that was my first thought. I'm used to getting those warnings from like Ark and everything but it just seemed to like kick all of us out and it's gone from the list. Hopefully that's the case doe. First time I've seen that happen lol

any estimates on how long it would normally take to come back up?

[dire marlin]

How do I prevent cyro sickness

[slate widget]

you can't. PvE has it disabled (on officials not sure for SP)

Does anyone know if the post on steam about perma 2x on official is true or a joke?

[short otter]

probably a joke

Community managers haven't announced anything about 2x being permanent but itd be cool to have it

[rugged carbon]

What do compys eat

[bleak panther]

Perma 2x would make official stay alive longer but who knows

[bleak panther]

Pbably meat

[tough yarrow]

The base rates have been updated several times over the past 7 years.

[placid sundial]

'the post' is not nearly specific enough. official/base rates have increased to iirc 4x over the years

[tough yarrow]

Where is your cape

[slate widget]

I thought it was 8x I'll see if I can find out :P

[placid sundial]

Yeah it was 4x or 8x, I can never remember

I feel like it's 8x but that also seems like.. a lot

[slate widget]

might be 4x. I can only find 2016 and 2020

might have one for 2017 but I can only find them mentioning playstation so it might just be talking about its release

wait wasn't their one during an extra life

or was it when wyverns became breedable I'm confusing myself

[ripe coyote]

anyone play on switch

[slate widget]

okay after my confusing search, I can only find 2, one in 2016 and one in 2020 :P so 4x is right

[naive root]

ARKS BEEN out 7 years

jesus christ didntd feel like that long

[slate widget]

2015 to 2022 is indeed 7 years (once june anyway) its been a long time.

[naive root]

it has i didnt play in the very Beginning stages of ark

ive been playing for solid 4 yeears maybe 5

[slate widget]

I got it in june 2015 :P took lots of breaks tho.

[placid sundial]

Iirc it was like they boosted rates at some point around extralife, and then maintained them for ages then made it official?

[velvet knot]

Why does ark censor “phantom”, “could”, and “blood”

[slate widget]

the 2016 one was EVOs that were being extended then just changed. then when crystal released on consoles I think it was boosted again

[slate widget]

its not ark its the xbox keyboard, its really strange.

[velvet knot]

I just want to name my shadowmane black phantom

[slate widget]

not sure. might have to spell it weird 🤷

[graceful mantle]

i hope somebody is going to read the request that i made

[trim tapir]

is anyone else constantly crashing in the middle of the game. the game just CLOSING

[tranquil tulip]

I just started the game and no idea what I’m doing

[viscid fog]

Gather some stuff

Like hit trees and collect stuff from bushes and pick up rocks from the ground

[drifting gorge]

ooh ooh i can help! see most dinosaurs you tame by knocking them unconsious and putting whatever food they eat in their inventory. also, sometimes its ok to eat raw meat cause when you have full hunger you heal up anyway

[lunar idol]

Did we actually get 2x imprint?

[severe crypt]

Does anyone know how you can create a ark server?

[red sentinel]

Dude my lost island server is lagging so much and keeps kicking us, over 40 people right now, usually 70-80..

[silent matrix]

Can ember wyverns breed magmasaur

[drifting gorge]

if i want the christmas event in my game can i just put Winter Wonderland in the bar or do i have to specify a number after it too?

[spiral jacinth]

Yes

[manic quest]

not really that play on official pve servers eh?

many

[cursive scaffold]

idk about ember but fire wyverns can. Its weird.

[magic salmon]

Case #22587 @bright salmon has been muted for 1 hour.
Reason: Posting a unauthorised Discord invite link

[regal yarrow]

Ember wyverns dont technically breath fire

[cursive scaffold]

i didnt think so

[regal yarrow]

I would be surprised if they could

[cursive scaffold]

it would be silly if they really were just smaller fire

[placid sundial]

i mean..

[cursive scaffold]

noooooooooo

[placid sundial]

it's true!

[tight osprey]

could someone explain to me how to add a friend to a non dedicated server? I googled it but the ones I've read say different things

why update its taking so long

[ripe coyote]

any switch players?

[placid sundial]

Just 'Join game' on friends list

[craggy vigil]

anyone tryna team on pc official? or some typa good modded server like mts or another really big one?

is baby boon glitched in 2x? just did beta and the effect isn’t showing

So I don't need hamatchi then? the steam friends list?

yeah whoever's joining just click the host's name and click join

[tight osprey]

thanks 🙂

[drifting gorge]

is it me or re hesperornis absurdly difficult to tame still

maybe theres something op about the bird so thats why and i just dont know, but i want the bird cause its cute

[swift pendant]

is baby boon glitched in 2x? just did beta and the effect isn’t showing

[placid sundial]

yeah they're fucking awful and not even particularly useful

[drifting gorge]

itll be worth it once i start breeding them and have a million of them

can they go on my shoulder? its been a while since ive tamed one, it also having been a while since ive played

[wooden notch]

Does anyone have any ark primitive plus experience?

[frank forum]

Yes

[frank forum]

Yes they can

[wooden notch]

@frank forum how do I join? I keep getting a total conversion mismatch message

[frank forum]

Since i am on ps4 i just go to the bottom of my screen

[wooden notch]

Right

Underneath where it says game modes

[frank forum]

Yes

[wooden notch]

Then when I select primitive plus a content load happens

Then when I try to join any server I get a total conversion mismatch message saying to go back to survival evolved then change the total conversion

[placid sundial]

Nope

[placid sundial]

it won't really, they're really not that useful

[drifting gorge]

but theyre really cute

Hmm i don't know why that would happen. There might be a glitch. Not like it is uncommon to find one ark is full of them

[placid sundial]

Valid

[drifting gorge]

look at their stubby little arms

got a question about the ark settings for singleplayer and non-dedicated multiplayer. if i type in a number higher than the bar goes, will it actually be tht number or will it just go back to as high as the bar can go?

[placid sundial]

Yeah I used to want to tame them too, but I kept giving up because fuck taming them lol

[frank forum]

It will go higher

[placid sundial]

It stays higher

Exception will be the difficulty which caps at 1

[drifting gorge]

oh i did end up just taming one with only 3x taming. and now ive got it set to 12x so it should be easier >:3

[placid sundial]

Since the value itself is capped at 1

[placid sundial]

i honestly don't feel like they're affected by taming speed given i used to be on 25x and I'd still get 3% per fish

on a level 20

[drifting gorge]

a h. thats uhh....maybe they need to rework some of the tames in this game

[placid sundial]

Most are, just fuck hesperonis in particular

[drifting gorge]

poor birb, they made him super unlikeable with how hard it is to tame him

[placid sundial]

Bloodstalkers were another one but they got fixed fortunately

[drifting gorge]

whats a bloodstalker o3o

[placid sundial]

Yup. You finally get a fish that's big enough to actually get proper fucking progress on it and then you lose all progress on the tame because the size of the fish blocks the feed hitbox.

last time i ever bothered with the fuckers

Swinging bloodsucking spider thing

[drifting gorge]

what is THAT

ah yes bugs. im good with those. not scared at all

[placid sundial]

They grab you

They're also broken in my main singleplayer save so I don't use them

[wooden rapids]

anyone trying to play a committed world with me or ill join urs I need to lurn by example in this and im bored out my mind and need someone to talk to

[placid sundial]

#735196277221883964

[drifting gorge]

surprisingly ive gotten over my fear of the pulmunoscorpius and mantis tho. things tend to become cuter once they arent trying to murder you

[wooden rapids]

o shi my bad

[placid sundial]

Nws, just so ya know

[placid sundial]

Oh, sorry

[drifting gorge]

its cool

[placid sundial]

You ever seen the arthros and araneos?

[drifting gorge]

unfortunately yes

[placid sundial]

Yeahh I'm good with bugs and they still freaked me out a bit at first

[drifting gorge]

oh another thing i tamed recently that im proud of is that little monke fella that runs away when he sees you or you feed him

[placid sundial]

Araneos look fucking horrifying, but I liked arthros once I saw the aberrant ones and started to think of them as 'glowsticks'

[placid sundial]

Also annoying, at least they don't take 2000 years

[drifting gorge]

glowing bugs ARE less scary than normal bugs. like fireflies

[placid sundial]

Yea I think glowbugs are really cute lol

They're.. pretty much fireflies tbh

And small, as far as bugs in ark go

[drifting gorge]

according terraria glowbugs are just superior fireflies so thats just what i know them as-

but speaking of things in ark that terrify me, titanoboa

[placid sundial]

Glowbug in a hat!! They cute?

Spoiled just in case, can delete if needed

[placid sundial]

i like the snek ;-;

[drifting gorge]

ooh

yeah i like little sneks, but big ones that wanna eat me scare me

[placid sundial]

basilisks being one of my favourite creatures

Basilisks are more like on the scale of most of the big dinos though

[drifting gorge]

yeah

[placid sundial]

Boas are closer to realistic

[drifting gorge]

oh also, how rare is gacha claus? in the event bar i put "Winter Wonderland" and i still havent found any. are they not in the same area as regular gachas or something?

[placid sundial]

Few things to that

So one is, they spawn wherever parasaurs spawn (except tek and R)

Specifically as a random replacement of them. However, they're probably been removed from the game currently, probably the spawn rules as well

[drifting gorge]

ahh. i havent really seen anything christmasy except for a few oddly blue creatures

so does putting in an event not work or somethin

[swift pendant]

is baby boon glitched in 2x? just did beta and the effect isn’t showing

[placid sundial]

It's hit or miss for what works (currently, seems they're going to make the events fully functional at the end of the year). Generally, only colours work

Since they started removing the event assets after the events ended

[drifting gorge]

dang, i wanted those chibi dinos

[vagrant walrus]

Baby Born is turned off through Evo events i think so😉

[placid sundial]

Chibi crafting might work for some events like summer bash?

[swift pendant]

thanks

[placid sundial]

There's other ways you can get them though, like adding them to drops

Though that's really complex, I have some code that adds (among other things) chibis to dino death drops and as mission loot

[drifting gorge]

hmmst. im gonna look at what events have what special colors and just pick one based off that then, assuming NONE of the event dinos can spawn

[placid sundial]

Right now, that's none, yeah. Though I made a mod for someone that literally just adds in the easter dinos so there's that

There's also another mod that has retention for the vday coel

Zombie wyvs and I think zombie dodos could be spawned vanilla but wouldn't be functional wild

[drifting gorge]

i remember i was playing some ark at valentines day one time, and could not figure out what was up with the special coelecanths

[placid sundial]

Yeah you could fish them to get candies and chibis and such

[pliant locust]

Zombie wyverns should be fine, I have clones on official servers that work just fine the whole year, so I believe they are properly included into the base game now 🙂

[placid sundial]

Or tame them if you want pink heart fish

[placid sundial]

i am aware they exist- that's why I mentioned them- you're not taming any without the dodowyv tho

[drifting gorge]

speaking of fish- mantas scare me too ;w;

[placid sundial]

So not truly event functional as far as spawning wild

[placid sundial]

There's config to disable (normal) spawns of creatures if they trouble you enough

[pliant locust]

Yea if the taming should be “as in the event” then that’s probably impossible, would actually be interesting to see what happens when they’re added to a spawn container. Like wil they even spawn there and if so, able to be claimed right away ?

[placid sundial]

i mean if you even restart the game without claiming zomdodos they become wild

[drifting gorge]

ehh i can deal with my fear aside from leeches and lampreys which arent on extinction

[placid sundial]

so i don't see wyvs being any more functional

[drifting gorge]

oh and in the event bar do i HAVE to put "Ark: (event name)" or can i just put "(event name)"

[placid sundial]

-activevent=eventname

[pliant locust]

Hm yea maybe if you’re present when they’re being spawned in by the game, it MIGHT work, but I too doubt it then 😕
Speaking of zomdodos, i haven’t seen anyone trading them on official yet, despite being in many big trading discords even 😦
Should really start asking around, one collectible I don’t have yet 😂

[placid sundial]

Given they also can't be claimed till the boss that spawned them is dead I assume they just break when there's no boss around to tell them to unclaim

WC never mentioned retaining the zomdodos so it's possible they still removed them;-;

[pliant locust]

Guess I’ll try some playing around with zombie wyverns tomorrow, if there is any way to make them spawn claimable / as closely to the event as possible, sound like a fun thing to try lol

Oh kk that explains it maybe, I was a little confused as the wiki states somewhat they remain ingame (but they USED to be bugged when cryod, apparently: not anymore according to the wiki) and the way it’s written there makes it sound like they stay 😕
But was already skeptical of this since you literally can’t find anyone easily to sell/trade them

[pliant locust]

Actually the wiki claims they’re permanently staying / being ingame once the event is over even (just checked again), maybe I start asking in some of the discords if anyone tried it

[silent matrix]

anyone on gen 2 wanna carry me through boss fight on smalls?

[placid sundial]

It's also possible it hasn't been updated. However I did find that some of mine seemed to be spawnable even without the mod I used to keep them before around, but that was also long before the last FE, so.. idk

[void wasp]

why my game doesn't see 1025 server?

[vernal dome]

Lost island transfers disabled?

[void wasp]

enabled

[vernal dome]

Not anymore

Multiple ppl are having the same issue

[void wasp]

?

can u check do u see 1025 server in the list?

[fallen pebble]

I need help theres a bug where i cant join ANY player dedicated or non dedicated i want to join my friend player ded server but it says cant get address or join failed

[midnight knot]

I had forcetamed a gacha claus on my singleplayer, so I am a bit sad at the removal of the holiday assets. I would like year-round Xmas on my personal worlds.

[placid sundial]

Yeah it's a shame theyve been removing assets. I had plans to make a mod preserving all the events but since they said they're adding everything to the basegame at the end of the year anyway, not really much point now

[midnight knot]

Are Lost Isle downloads still not available? I tried to move a Rex Saddle into my official PVE lost isle server and I got the refreshing inventory timeout.

[river cypress]

they were enabled and then just recently went disabled

was able to transfer a couple items and then i was going to switch characters, cant even transfer characters in either

[midnight knot]

Oh, good to know, I dont want to lose a Tek Stryder in transit. The rex saddle was me seeing if things worked.

Oh dear, some people depend on character transfers to keep their bases D: How frustrating.

[river cypress]

as far as i can tell the character transferring is isolated to incoming transfers into LI servers. I can transfer to any other server without problems

[torpid hemlock]

did anyone else's ark get deleted?

everything on my steam account looks like it got deleted

wtf man

[midnight knot]

Hmm, I looked at the three channels of patch notes, announcements and Twitter, no mention of the disabling, hmmm... I been waiting for the transfers unlocked so I can make my ark life easier :/

[midnight knot]

Did you interrupt an update? My friend would have her Ark deleted when she'd have an interruption to her download.

[silent matrix]

Where people not able to transfer to Lost Island on official? I play unofficial so I don't know anything about that

[torpid hemlock]

nope, there was no update to my knowledge

im sorry im not reinstalling ark today i've had a bad day already i dont need this

[midnight knot]

I'm unable to download an item into LI currently.

[river cypress]

yes today was the opening day for transfers into LI official servers

[silent matrix]

Thanks guys :)

[narrow mortar]

why tf does wildcard always screw everything up when things like this happen

[vernal dome]

Cuz the devs are monkeys

[ocean trellis]

Something's just broken right now with LI. Steam account sees it, but Epic does not, and friends saying they are unable to transfer in even on Steam.

[narrow mortar]

yeah when i join it says character transfer failed

[torpid hemlock]

oop nvm fixed it it was reading my C disk but all my installs are on D disk

never mind false alarm (thankfully)

[ocean trellis]

@silent matrix, halp!

@viral shore, halp!

[torpid hemlock]

stop it

[ocean trellis]

Do they not like being alerted of issues here?

I know, should prob just put a ticket in.

[torpid hemlock]

go to #bug-reports

[midnight knot]

Knowing how my Discord works, Devs probably got their sounds muted, I mute most everything in groups because spam minimizes my attention to pings.

[torpid hemlock]

stop being annoying in general ark chat

[torpid hemlock]

yeah prolly

[midnight knot]

Ok I will keep an eye on the groups for today since I wanna know when transfers open up again. Getting stuck for a minute in a drop isnt something I wish to be doing.

[thorny granite]

Quick question... item decomp time... does that include all items? Specifically I am thinking of poop and eggs. Wondering if I tweak that setting it'll keep eggs around a bit longer, just in case I'm away from base for a bit. (Right now decomp is at an hour -- though spoil time is over 7 days). I think right now I have it at 2.0.

[torpid hemlock]

yeah, decomp time means all items

[thorny granite]

I thought so. Just wanted to be sure. I guess I need to increase that a bit more then.
