how should I tweak my setttings to breeding Rexes would be fast
Tweak it to 5-10x
Lower hatching speed and mating delay
For mating speed delay hatching and maturation
Hi , I'm starting ark with à friend for thr first time, were downloading the game and we got some free addons when it went free , I'm thinking of just starting in the ragnarok map for our coop , is that à good idea ,
I read somewhere u can't use all the dinos the map if u don't buy additional stuff, is that true. Thx
My rex's hatch after 5mins and mature in 20 because I refuse to spend a week afk to raise a rex in sp
Yeah rag is a nice map
Not all the Dino’s are on it tho
lower hatcing sped? Why?
Almost all are
But the ones I find I can use them right ? I'm not stuck in a paywall right ?
Basically everything is on fjordur and its free
wouldnt that make hatching slower
So that the eggs hatch way faster. Oh wait, I meant to say raise it lol
raise by how much?
Some
10x?
I use 5x and sp settings I think
That doesn't change anything with breeding. ( I think it's just how often they lay a normal egg)
wait isnt default mating interval time like 2 real days
Yeah. Make it match your hatching introval
Yeah
Make it match your hatch settings
Forgot to reply lol
so 0.1 ?
Yup
okok
So that as soon as one hatches, the next egg is ready
I’d make it fast on single player bc it won’t do anything while ur offline
ye
The only issue with high growth is they are slightly low on health when they grow
Cus how fast they go
When i first tried ark last year when it was free on epic games it seemed like such a dissapointing game and gave it a chance again now that it was free on steam and put some time into changing a few settings and its much more enjoyable
Yeah
Where are the alphas on fjordur, I found 2 alpha raptors but their near like 30 deinonychus
Yup
Playing on 1x is a nightmare
anyone know how i can increase my dino spawns im using primal fears
Nope
crank the spawn rate up
its already at 1
Does anyone know how to make dinosaurs attack in RTS mode?
Rts?
Real time strategy. On PS4 it's L2+down on keypad while looking at a dino or player
Like orbit camera?
Yeah
Oh
When you are in the Exo Mek
I am commanding Exo Meks
Go to your options, it may have a diagram that shows it
On pc we call it kmode
Meks may have to be piloted to work
They do
Idk about exos tho, that's what I meant
Oh ok. How do I tame dinosaurs then? I am fairly new.
Or passive feed them
How do you have an exo mex if you're new?
Creative
is it worth getting pump shotgun?
Yes
Yes
is it much better than normal shotgun? Like do I need a pump for caves or?
It's much better.
Comparable damage, but way less reload
Hey guys! Breaking news! Mjolnir sucks in this game! It's a waste of your time trying to get it! Don't bother! There are way more powerful weapons in this game! Mjolnir is trash! The only thing it's suitable for is killing Dilos or Dodos. Maybe Velociraptors. That's about it. I even went into Singleplayer and got an Ascendant Tek Sward and put the Mjolnir skin for it and it STILL sucked. For anyone who wants to use and thinks Mjolnir is a cool awesome weapon, cuz let me tell you something...it is...100%. But is it effective in combat with high-level enemies? NO, IT'S NOT. A guy with a Primitive Assault rifle or Primitive Revolver could kill you before you even get a swing at them.
oh no!
Anyways
Or an achievement
Or to show how dedicated you are to the game
Yeah it's just the status of having pretty much fully beaten the game lol
Can a mek fight the overseer?
It can?
Idk
I'd rather them have an artifact for an achievement. Why go so far as to make a weapon like that has such a long and hard many tasks to then finally use it and find out it was nowhere near the effort to get it in the first place. I feel like the developers are trolling us with this one.
Would an andew be useful for the overseer fight?
Once again, just the achievement of having it
If you have good saddles prob could be
It's not supposed to then make you invincible
And I'm pissed off cuz the developers could have told us about how this weapon was nowhere near worth the time and effort.
I have 17 rex's, a yuty and a maxed Tek Rex rn
Is there a way to make artifacts spawn?
Wait
On ragnarok they aren't playing ball
And they will res pawn
Why wasn't Mjolnir on Ragnarok instead...?
Fair point
anyone know which settings before loading a world allows u to imprint a baby faster? right now its saying for me to wait an hour and a half to imprint, how do i decrease that number?
Wildcard momento
Breh
Anyway, artifacts are dumb
Either imprint quality or imprint interval
how does the shadowmane invis work?
I'm on a single player offline world lmao
is it like the desmodus or rock drake invis
Can someone make a mod so they can fix this Mjolnir mistake the developers made...please...
Rock drake
Well they aren’t gonna make it a god teir weapon
u would think baby mature speed would change it too
The damn artifaxt spawned in the wall
i had baby caring imprints at 30 minutes before, but for some reason all my settings got reset now its an hour and a half again
I thought I heard it
No
It spawned in a damn wall
Wrong map
Same as normal
It will after cooked
but i have to put
Bruh momento
2 at a time?
Yes
Yeah
Or get a industrial grill
Get a stacking mod
I just realized desmodus dont take radiation dmg 😮💨
ye
Indi grill cooks 12 meat at a time
maybe, if its good
Better than 1
oh frick
can't wait to use the poglin mask
nah its not worth honestly
Imagine playing on win10 and not being able to stack prime
Good luck in your endeavors
@fallow kestrel when in doubt i cant figure out how to lower the time to care for a baby, just decrease baby maturation speed, xD
Just lower the cuddle interval lol
It's one of the basic sliders on the pre launch settings
wait is that the one?
Yes
but why the hell it says cuddle i got no idea
But it inversely scales imprint amount so if you want the same imprint amount more frequently you need to modify your .ini
i saw that one a few times but i thought it was something else
yeah cuz if u normally lower that cuddle thing it would let u imprint more often but for lower percent right?
Yes
what do baby rock drakes eat
Nameless venom
ok
anyone wanna be partner
uh @grave needle so i lowered the thing u told me to, and it didnt work for the current babies, but it is for the new ones i hatch, wack xD
Why does the new map keep crashing whenever I download stuff there in SP?
I was smart enough to to do any tames, but just lost a few pieces of gear
Since I can’t seem to get lucky on mutations for my deinonychus should I just take some with me to the beyla cave and fight the boss with my current deinonychus? Their level 580 unleveled, 100% imprint
Yep any that already existed keep their timer
Does demodus hurt my tames when I pick them up?
How good is a 124 Rex BP?
I'm on Win10 and can stack prime
Have you been snorting the element dust again?
Nope, I can’t stack it
You have to change the ini some to be able to stack it but can’t remember what to add
I did increase it tho
Pins in #bobs-with-probs or #unofficial-setup-help has it
Ah thank you
I found a cave on fjourdur, I thought I’d need to be underwater for it but when I entered I didn’t need to be underwater, just to go u o some steps
im taming my first rex from the redwoods as a new player with 99% TE :D its level 112
12k torpidity i was so confused
pillar strats op :d
What should I aim for if I have a para and a trike, a flyer?
🥔
Is it just me or do adult and baby wyverns have the same sized hitbox. I cryopodded a baby wyvern and then tried to deploy it in my house and it said "not enough space"
How do I get the net gun on Fjordur??
Yeah Pteranodon of course
anyone know why my gportal is stuck endlessly restarting saying its stopping but wont and if i go to join game my server looks yellow instead of white
What do I put in my game user settings to enable friendly fire?
Can't wait to play Genesis, Fjordur is nice but... I've already killed Fenrir on Alpha. I need a challenge.
On gen2 the rockwell boss I’ve heard is one of the hardest bosses in ark
yes it's the last boss...
Ik
How do I control an andrews charge?
It's seemingly using the charge at random when sprinting, but I can't make it do it when I want it to
If youve never had a moschops named larry youre lying
Wish I knew, having tamed one or used it much, only spawned it in to test something, also it can force sink itself when in water
I have never named a moschops Larry
I’ve had a raptor named sonic, it was faster than any Dino in the game
Every level was put into speed until I maxed it
are shadowmanes not in fjordur?
want me to help look?
Why wont the fish go in the fish basket?
i cant fucking figure out how to make my pipe bend
like an L shape
and continue building off them
i dont do much with pipes so im no help there
want me to give the cords of a lvl 180?
sure
guys my baby t rex want me to feed him cooked meat jerky what is cooked meat jerky
google it
:/
does the cuddle faze run out tho?
do you have a nanny?
nanny?
imma guess you dont?
i dont know hwat a nanny is
oh mk
Mine is named brad
They spawn in fjordur, Asgard, their rare spawns, look towards 35:44 29:44 29:50 35:53
Also named one of mine machops before
Hey I just got this game when it was free for a week. Looking for someone tom play with an show me the ropes. 18+ have a clear mic
Why can’t I play
how the hell do u stop things from spawning in ur base areas. i have foundations and gates down and things are still spawning
you have to spam some foundations and it will stop the spawning
my dino has cyro sicknes hwo do i wake him?
lol you have to wait
yea you gotta wait
dangf
couldve sworn that sentence i wrote said that very thing
i know but there is no other way to stop spawning creatures
try to kill every wild dino maybe
Aren’t you from the Shadow of war community?
life isn’t fair
just shot down a yuty and it FELL IN THE WATER LOL 😂😐
rest in piece my 3 tranq darts and 10 tranq arrows
nvm
why isn’t he drowning?
If part of them is above water sometimes you get lucky
Pro tip, tame an equus and craft some lassos, you can use it to pull KOd tames out of water
Hitbox above the water prob
when there will be allowed the fjordur new dinos on aberration 😔?
They are not allowed?
can knocked spino drown?
no :'c
Ab is a tricky one, a lot of dinos from other maps aren't allowed, so they may never be
the sinomacrops is allowed
The bat should be allowed on ab and gen, pretty sure it has no flyer restrictions
Who trying play? New world?
i tried the bat on gen1, not rideable as most flyers
and on aberration not able even to uncryo it
It doesn't work on gen. I've tested it in single player
i ask because when gen2 was relased the new dinos werent allowed on aberration too
Sus
@viral shore Hey When is the Summer Event I have not seen anything about it yet anyone know?
kinda
@viral shore v:
used to be
stopped playing that game a while ago
guys is it normal for someone recruiting in a tribe too ask for steam id?
For contact maybe idk
Does anyone know why my Ark solo wont load past primal game data bp or atleast its being very slow
How long does it take for magma nest to respawn
yes
by far which dlc has more content?
Does anyone know why I can’t pick up anything with my Desmodus, argy, or wyvern
I’m on ps4

I was trying to pick up a deino
What age of majority does baby wyverns take milk
@supple verge
😭
here ya go
i was so lame lordy
i did it faster boi
tjank you both!
i am the king of click click send
im raising at the same time lol
raising?
yeah raising drakes on Fjordur
Just realized extinction is the only paid dlc map without a new shoulder pet
Island- otter, I came out as drip feed
Scorched- jerboa
Ab- all the light pets
Ext-???
Gen1-ferox
Gen2-noglin
o
woof offical?
yep
true!
Yeah drakes are a joke to raise on fjordur
that sounds awful 😭
Fjordur- Fjordhawk
that poor vulture got forgotten on scorched :P
i dont think you can get any shoulder pet on ext but jerboa
Meh i raise gigas on 1x drakes aint nothing
Extinction - You on literally any of the titans
I'm Giga Heda
lol, you are the shoulder pet on ext 😂
bingo
oh btw, i had eggs benedict for my first time ever today
I said new shoulder pet
the titans were new
And I only wanted to list one
it is new for you to be the shoulder pet
you listed all the light pets :P
You control the titan 
As 1 
perhaps
ur still the shoulder pet
this got pushed up, so im replying to it for lazy people/me
In that case your a shoulder pet riding a giga 
not big enough for you to be the shoulder pet
same with the titanosaur
it's only the case with the titans because yes
Anyone having issues with mini bosses on fjordur not always giving relics?
Is are the shimmering halls for anything like loot, terminals, or something or just for looks?
I found an anvil but can’t do anything with it
that was happening yes, supposed to have been fixed #735188555810340964
Yes I know but it wasnt
#bug-reports if you on singleplayer it can take longer as they need to do a client update and the last might not have had it
Teleporting was best done on fjordur where you could still go to all locations by just traveling there and you also had the option to teleport
Also you should of been able to teleport on gen2 just like fjordur
at least on gen2 you have a tek suit to get around
ill be playing fjordur once the map stops crashing
I still would of liked to see hlna teleporting
WhTs the most common spot where manas spawn
@silent matrix snow on extinction
...ichthyosaurs.
get 80% through the tame and watch em swim out 300 meters to sea past an alpha megalodon
i'm gonna have to figure out a taming pen for these, aren't i
Well, I started Genesis 2 today
Can't wait to go beat the snot out of Rockwell for the second (and then third) time
Anyone know of good ratholes? I’m solo and don’t wanna get sauced by the multiple alphas
just use flippers
i'm in hella earlygame lol
I wanna know why your tamimg and ichythornius in the first place
because they're cute.
and they majorly outmaneuver megalodons and mantas
That’s a icthyosaurus
Icthyornis are the birds that will take your items
yes, that's what i'm taming
read up, urbedisgone misspelled it
*you're
Ahh ok. Yeah I was like looking at the context and thought something doesn’t match
you kinda don't even need to go into the water early game
but i wanted to.
fair enough
I prefer taming sarcos since they're just as fast but can actually fight
wait can you ride them????
i just rolled a new character on the island with a new mod lineup so i figured i'd have some fun with it. got to metal tiers before.
i had a sarco on my last char. lv130. lost it to the deep sea when i misjudged just how far electric eels would chase me and jumped off to harvest some silica pearls.
nah, was more like 80 pre tame, which was pretty nice since i was at 0.5 difficulty.
i've since moved up to 1.0.
you can get silica pearls from shallow waters in the cold region too btw
150 is the best max level if you ask me
some use 180 but I think 150 is nicer
icthyosaur can definitely fight one on one with megalodons at least. i've been collecting their teeth by chewing on their tail fins.
dolphin has ridiculous turn rate. :')
with that shit ass damage that ichthies have I'd much rather just shoot with a crossbow or get some other dino ngl
ichthies are nice though, easy to tame and find
bad damage is fine by me since it's very earlygame.
just means i have to bite em a bunch more times :')
Looking for a tribe on pve official on Xbox
any opinions on rock golem x?
Just as good as regualr
use interactive spawn maps, in-article maps aren't ready yet (but will soon be.)
Ark arena war mod
howdy perry
Howdy
got a couple more maewings
mine is a 478 damage one
i dont remember its exact xost
Nice. Yeah every other material is doable but almost 35k metal?!?
And it doesn’t even have higher armor
How do you get gachas to auto pickup items?
35k metal aint that bad
its a few runs with my 7.3k weight basilisk with me carying my mining drill
They should just do it by themselves
you just drop stuff infront of it
What about there crystals
Did you make sure resource gathering was enabled
Yes
they will not pick up gacha crystals
F why not
hey guys anyone have any tips on taming Argentavis? im planning on taming my first one
What auto picks up the crystals?
i think you hold X
okays
Does Ankylosaurus increase the scrap metal yield from barrels on fjordur?
oh hold x is whistle for me
Hold o
What equipment?
shadowmane, thylacoleo, deinonychus
Anything that can jump is good
ball?
all u gotta do is get the egg out of the wyvern trench and thats good
i did it with a pteranodon
doesnt matter if u dont get home with the egg
but to be fair he was very fast
i havnt used wyverns for so long
i had to reinstall ark and i had almost all notes is there a way of getting them back
Make a dino gate trap
i hatched so many baby raptors. but then one of my dinos got attacked and all the babies scattered, off cliffs, in the ocean. and they even ran into the forest
lmfao
this was a few days ago, and im still continuing to find babies on my adventures just running away from everything
so um i need an easy way to get wyvern milk but idk how
i got such a cool mutated raptor just today
Can't you just cryopod them for a different imprint?
Idk been so long since I've raised a wyvern
the raptor has jet black feathers with teal feather tips, bright purple and orange body. then royal blue belly.
If u cryopod them and throw them back down they'll usually get a different imprint, like cuddle or take them for a walk
i had a wyvern then i went into the weird base in fjordur then he just disappeared
he was under the bridge
my raptor mutations are going decent, i got 201 health in one parent, and 195 melee in another parent. this took for fricken ever
thats stat points
wait i think i said that wrong, i mean the raptor has had enough mutations to put 201 stats in health
u know whats funny, i do have so many raptors when i get too many i just get the weaker ones and get them all killed XD
i love and hate raptors
im currently tryna breed the best raptor boss killers
ive seen a youtuber do a 100 days to beat ark with raptors. and he did defeat all the bosses. but the tek cave kind of screwed him over, lost a ton to the lava, killed a 195 giga, but lost to overseer
but the dad died in asgard to a kesmo
what is that titled
island tho
yeah he was fighting a level 195 wild giga with the raptors. and they did kill it pretty fast. but he lost like 6 of them
is there a way to make a 2x1 or 2x2 wooden door?
Is genesis the only DLC ferox's can be found
yo it worked thx
Np
in lost island cave you can tame ferox
do you get enough points by leveling up to unlock everything?
I died in lava how do i get my stuff back
No, not even close.
guys
No
No, they are on gen 1, gen 2, lost Island, and probably Fjordur. Not sure about the last one.
(can you do it through cheats)
They're in fjordur in a certain cave somewhere
Yes, or the genesis shop.
dont have genesis
also how can i enable damage numbers? i turned them on in advanced settings but i dont have them in my server
am I able to learn gen 2 things like net gun if I don't own the dlc?
Does anyone know if the deinonychus can fit in valgueros' lava golem cave entrance?
Cheat GiveEngrams.
lost island?
where do u get them in lost island
On Lost Island or Fjordur.
There's a cave somewhere. I'm not certain where.
Awesome, thanks
^
Did you restart? Check if the box is still checked.
as soon as i leave the menu its unchecked
Okay, check it and immediately go into your world if your on singleplayer.
is lost island ez
im on a server
It's not the easiest, there are dangerous zones but it is resource rich.
Is it a hosting service? Which one if so?
no, its ark server manager
I am unfamiliar with that service. I can tell you what to do on nitrado and hope it applies for you?
okay
Check the box, select save settings and restart the server.
I am sorry this isn't my area of expertise.
its a setting inside the server?
fjordur is ez>
What do you mean?
Yes.
I hope it works for you.
is the quetz good? i just tamed one.
They have great weight but are slow. Basically their use is a flying platform saddle.
ohh awesome. is there a way i can increase the amount of items i can put on the quetz's back? i play in a non dedicated, i wanna build a flying base lol
What's the problem
There's a setting near the bottom of advanced. Something like platform saddle limit. I can't remember the name but it is a multiplier. Also you can enable multifloor on platform saddles.
awesome, thanks a bunch
yo wassup I'm a gfx that will do everything to the best of my ability. You know, I also make logo thumbnails, banners, and also advertisements for your games. You get me and il make the thumbnail for your game, whatever u need.
i dm u
Change it in the ini
It‘s only on the island. Ok other maps max level is 150
Hi guys, shorts question, if i Play 90% of my time alone, should i Player on small Tribe Server?
what do i need to make a second floor
Fr
I've seen like syntac play the island mf finding 150 rexes I find 80💀
You can change it somehow. The island is the map with worst levels
Every othe rmap is way way much better
When does the summer bash start
Whats Ichythornis' Food?
Anyone know how to make beer faster
iirc there was a command that would speed up the process
Can someone give me a good single player settings vid pls
do I need aberration to use a chibi basilisk?
How Do You Drop A Dino That Is On Your Shoulder
is soul trap a mod?
Yhea
Can i change what my character looks like without creating new survivor
is there any way to bypass it?
I don’t think so
scissors
How Is a paint brush going to change my body mass
I thought it worked I remember doing something with the paintbrush something that change my character
Ok ill try
Are you high
double click "F"
He hits himself with it and it changes body
There any way to increase the time of which messages pop up on the screen? the yelow text I mean.
why is my ptera not moving when i ride it
You are probably carrying too much.
does my weight affect my dinos weight?
Yes. When you ride a dino your carry weight is added to the dino's
oh
whats the dino that gets items for u? i know its gamma or something but yt wont tell me
nvm
early game is the most fun, after that it becomes less and less fun
i guess it is still fun but it just becomes too easy and the survival aspect kinda dissapears
personally i think late game is more fun
i mean i prefer ark as survival game but that is more of my personal opinion
Guys don’t you think the fjordhawk should be nerfed in terms of weight?
It’s way too OP to do some material farms, like metal, onbsidian and some other mats
meh its okay
can't really speak on this topic since i never got one
You can farm literally black weight of a material
Bro how is that « ok » lol
if you are playing hardcore it ain't really that useful i think
they bring your items when you die right?
still havnt figured out why fjordur crashes upon tryna load PGS supply crates in loading a world
like when i delete the world and load a new fjordur it works.. but then when i quit and try to reload that world again it always gives fatal errors at PGS_SupplyCrates
how do u get a dino off your soldier
for a secvond i thought it was pugnacia doing it, but thats not right. because other ppl are playing pugnacia on fjordur
idk how to get ferox off shoulder
Double press the same button you pick it up with
i did not know you could get twins from an egg i just got 2 gigas from one egg
im pressing E
2 times
double press f
what r some dinos u guys use to defeat most bosses, just curious?
allosaurus, carno, rex, and you alwyas need 1 yuty no matter who you are fighting
ill need a yuty for the final boss rush of pugnacia for sure
yep
gonna try to kill the final ascension pugnacia bosses with raptors
ive always fsr been to scared to fight bosses but i did the math and with just 2 of my carnos i could win over alpha broodmother so im about to demolish this spider
tryna mutate my raptors to 252 melee and hp tho,
i dont think raptors will do so well
well someone lost like 18 dodorexes to the ascension bosses
you can even get triplets if you are lucky
damn
dodorex is a type of psuedo boss in pugnacia, its a primeval. and that guy had 18 of them
i have a way too small base and i have like 7 gigas now i think i cant really movbe around
now, raptors in pugnacia are broken asf
I got my first ever indu forge 🙂
Fork i had a quick question
yes
what dinos do u usually use to defeat bosses?
i havnt done any
nice
noice
this is my first playthrough
i know most ppl use things like megatheriums, therizno's, rexes, shadowmanes. etc, but idk what other ones work
i mean like the best possible would probably be 19 rexes and one yuty
i heard deonicous is good for dragon
megatheriums work wonders on broodmother
deinosychus*
yeah cuz of the increased dmg to bugs
i think it doubles the damage to everything for like bit of time
and 70% dmg reduction
could u just use like 20 yutyrannus for bosses?
or smthing like that
There is a reason most people use the same things.. Because they are best suited to it.
eh
they are kinda weak on their own
U guys know some way to fix beacons not appear in caves on fjördur?
do u prefer spino or rex?
rex overall but looks spino
hi is anyone on Xbox and want to check out the new update with me?
also are purlovias any good? It jumped on me and i tamed it
how about reaper kings for bosses?
can you even bring them to bosses??
i mean i think u can cant u?
yeah but that wont be very useful, a yuty is mostly just used to give other dinos a boost
Hey, does anyone know how to get high level dinos to spawn more often?
i saw it in a video. unless it was patched
It’s random but you could kill the low levels to encourage more high level spawns
make difficulty higher
The difficulty level is 1.0 for me.
sejl have u played pugnacia yet?
They spawn more frequently on fanmade maps and the genesis-s.
I am doing that, not many three digit levels.
Mostly dodos any turtles anyway.
has anyone tried bringing reaper kings to a broodmother fight
Been looking for 2 hours at one point and only found a 104 yutyrannus
banana
what map you on?
The Island
thats why
Is there nothing I can do?
high level dinos are rarer on the island then on other maps
i dont think
What other maps should I try?
depends on what your looking for
or you mean overall?
I don't really know, I have maybe 40 hours playtime.
yeah
I don't really need easy, just wanna have a fun time, might die alot but I'll probably get somewhere 😭
tryna beat ark in 100 days with raptors might be heckin challenging, even on island. although some ppl may b able to do it faster
depends on how lucky u get with finding breeding parents and mutation luck
fjordur is fun i think
Doesn't fjordur cost like 20 bucks?
its free
its free
Is it optimized?
You could start with the original map, the island. Good place to start and learn in my opinion.
wdym
Im playing on The Island right now and don't think im getting anywhere because of the low level dinos spawning.
Fjordur is still new and buggy.
fps drops, stutters etc.
I have a Ryzen 5 2500x and a GTX 1650 6gb
its buggy and new
buggy as in?
glitches and stuff
How's the fps?
Hahaha
didnt change my name back lol
i remember when this game came out there was like 25 different dinos
Is ark cross platform for pc and Xbox?
no
Don't think so.
I know, I played then
late 2015
been a while since i played vanilla ark tho
i think if you use windows version
It is on windows. Both from microsoft.
i mean not the steam version
Yeah.
What's the least beginner friendly map with the most high level dino spawns
least friendly map is probably scorched earth or gen 1
Abberration.
isnt abberration pretty chill early?
Honestly Abberation sounds pretty dope.
The hardest free map is probabaly Fjordur.
isnt one of the easy zones near a giga?
being near a giga doesnt mean its hard.
If you're lucky, ravagers, and pre nerf raptors will make you have a bad time, poisonous mushrooms and spinos and karkinos wherever there is water.
bog on gen one
is the same kinda
You can choose not to spawn at bog.
i'd say beginner wise, aberration and scorched earth are tied in difficulty
gen 1 on the other hand is just death at every sight.
Same
What's gen 1?

genesis part 1
Genesis?
Ocean biome is easy to spawn in. Volcano is not that bad to start on either.
yeah but ocean doesnt have the resources to get you past level 20.
Scorched gets dramatically easier after maybe the first hour.
Warp in and out.
same applies to aberration due to the fact that the presence of dismounting dinos is non existent.
And the resources are there, you just need to look for them.
bog 😈
hlo
Those unnerfed raptors are dangerous.
cananyone tellme some basics of ark?
As in what exactly?
knock out dino wait 5 hours tame dino, farm for 10 hours to get resources and repeat
how hard would it be to tame a 135 giga?
is the summer bash starting today or 30th because people saying two things
Use dodoex
Thats a single dino that quite literally glows in the dark for you to see. Not to mention, all the dismounting dinos (raptor, karkinos, megalosaurus) are all slower than an imprinted ravager.
Despite that, they'll still kill you a lot.
Both scorched earth and aberration have a point where all of a sudden everything is super easy (taming an argy and a ravager respectively) but gen 1 doesnt have that point until way later.
u know guys, i was watching this video where someone was being wiped on a pvp server, and he had like a million cryopoded dinos in his inventory, like paracer's spinos, rexes, gigas. etc.. i was wondering, why he didnt just throw them all out and whistle aggressive, i mean thats what i would do
i mean after you tame an argy, game just becomes flying across an map simulator
or walking across a map for abberation
if ur being wiped anyways, may aswell make it a last stand
They wont if youre actually aware of your surroundings, theyre bola-able and have a headshot modifier. Being good with plant z also helps.
Ravager is not that point. Maybe once you have an imprinted pack, even then, you will be killed, especially if it's your first time and you don't consume ark media.
most ppl i watch doing pvp scenarios arent exactly the smartest, having dinos on passive. not using many dinos to fight back the intruders. leaving tons of loot behind if wiping a base. and much more
I can barely name anything that can kill you on a good ravager as long as you have a brain. I can get being unlucky with wild ravagers and the bleed.
First time is a valid point since the freezing spores is almost always lethal unless you know to eat aquatic mushrooms and many other scenarios where knowledge is key, but that also applies to scorched earth and gen 1. Like how punching cactus gives you water on scorched earth.
Their is a lot trust me
bio toxin gives more torpor, yes.
I found scorched easy, genesis okay and aberration challenging personally.
perfect, thanks <3
Same
Basilisk I hate them
abberation is hard cause every spawn has 30 raptors ravagers and dire wolfs
I lost so much to that first time. I basically started from scratch again, I was on a max crab.
oo thats enough to tame me an army of raptors
I did a thing where xp goes at a crawl, dinos deal double damage and i do half damage. I found that scorched was around the same difficulty as aberration but both got easier in time while gen 1 was constant death.
whats hard with gen1
whats the hardest map for u guys?
gen 1.
I have been spending time on foot in the volacano biome and I rarely die. Gen 1 is easy enough.
the fucking island
everything
i cant find a fucking ptera higher than lvl 2
the only place u can go on fricken fjordur where u dont fricken freeze to death is the volcano island, so easily thats fjordurs easiest spawn
I play aberration mostly on foot until I get a ravager and I rarely ever die thanks to climbing picks and later glidesuits ⚰️
a good day on the island be like
literally ive been searching for 2h, i found 3 and they were 1 1 and 2
unfortunate
that level 2 is a steal, you better get it.
I suppose those two are environmental and status dangers while gen 1 is brute danger, so your settings amplify gen 1 danger more.
is ark free?
no
It was a week ago on steam.
it was on epic a while ago and on steam not too long ago
i was able to get both lol
now?
nope, youre too late, sorry
;-;
gen 1 has enough environmental dangers, and i dont really think it matters since I already know not to go poking around in gas veins or to not step on the wrong mushrooms.
your best luck is getting it on sale, i think it is rn
what is the hardest boss in ark right now?
alpha titan
alpha king titan?
And scorched earth has plenty environmental dangers so idk what you mean.
u also play ark in cloud gaming?
only king titan?
whats cloud gaming
steam cloud?
doesnt he take like 3 minutes to attack once
nah
The gas stuff is non lethal if you're full health.
that attack one shots your whole army tho
in nividia geforce cloud
not the people with gigas
i play on steam with geforce now
it does
yes i know, but it does contribute to a death sometimes.
oh well by the time he can even attack once, the titan is dead
doesnt that mf have like 1.5m health
I was referring to both scorched and aberration as environmental dangers, but scorched are easy to deal with.
in scorched u just get the desert armor
i know something that'll challenge my pugnacia raptors, i just wont level the babies im maturing at all, then use them against the alpha king titan. cuz right now they have like 37k hp and do like 600 dmg before any pack buffs
how tf is scorched environmental dangers easier to deal with compared to aberration when the latter is just eat the right mushrooms.
Fair enough, but it's really only if you're unlucky.
how much dmg does the alpha king titan do with one attack?
pugnacia buffs bosses alot iirc, dont expect it to be easy
mod doesnt touch vanilla bosses
u sure
like it doesnt touch orbital supply drops
The heat is not really that much of a problem. I have yet to die to heat / dehydration on scorched and I am wyvern army level.
u just need to stay near a water source and ur good
congratulations, now tell me how many times youve died of the green zone spores.
but this fight should be just like fighting a level 840 titanosaur in pugnacia. so im a bit scared
Probably twice, but those aren't bad.
bro 840 is rookie for pugnacia
how tf did you die to green zone spores when they dont even kill you at 100 hp.
840 is pugnacias max wild dino spawn
Do u guys keep all tamed dinos in 1 area?
With an abhorrent lack of skill. I was being chased and ran into them.
Like sure surviving the heat on scorched earth is as easy as wearing desert cloth or slapping down a tent but that doesnt change the fact that aberrations environmental dangers is eat mushrooms and youre good.
im building on a leveraged area in extinction right next to green beacon and whenever my dinos get hit by something, they all go barrelling off the side of the cliff towards the green beacon
I personally carry the agerravic mushrooms on my hotbar since they act as a mini med brew. means accidental spores arent a death to me.
how much dmg does alpha king titan do roughly?
30,000 maybe? not sure.
and how much dinos can u take into the titan arena?
infinite.
When you put it like that, it seems easy, but from my own experience, I've probably died and lost everything more on Ab than any other map.
30k seems about right, okay so i think my raptors will be okay
Not the free maps. Only the DLCs
thats fair, but from my own experience ive died a lot more on gen 1. granted, i may not have lost everything but i rarely ever lose everything on any map.
there is always a way to retrieve your stuff if you use everything at your disposal.
bro his msg was 2h ago
also why do gigas get such low stats per upgrade anyways
so they not too op
but they already dont do much dmg
50k health for like a lvl 10
a giga can deal up to 14k damage per bite.
wild
yeah until u tame it
well the base hp for a wild giga is 80k. and the base for a tamed one is 17k.
makes sense tbh
Not always, but I can agree that genesis does pose challenges. I personally considered it second place, but I guess that's not objective.
so i can't load in lost island huh
i saw someone have a giga with 8.5k health i think
impossible i think
What.
i guess my character got lost on lost island
idk thats just what i saw
thats literally impossible i think
Must be modded.
may have been something else then. for a second i thought it read 85000, but no 8,500
I'm new to Ark, in Fjordur, when I go in this cave with skulls outside (on the mushroom island in the west) I start taking damage. Why? and how to stop it?
but it mightve been 18000
Get a new pair of glasses. /J
i think radiation
i mean, my eyes work just fine, its been a few months since i saw those stats
so i cant remember
radiation probably
i also dont even wear glasses, thanks. nor do i even need them. i dont even need glasses to know vanilla raptors shred desmodus
you need radiation suit
Lol.
man can you stop talking
im about to fight alpha broodmother (first ever boss fight), wish me luck
he put /j for a reason.
Good luck!
can you craft it?
yes
thanks
ok it said on some website that it deals 540 damage why does it deal almost 5k
i just died
did you change any settings?
yeah
also, that's probably the base damage on the site
ok that makes sense thats my fault
like what, dino resistance and such?
no like stats per level things
ah, that might fuck up the bosses as well
shit
i don't have experience with those specificly, since they tend to be unbalanced
i never closed an application that fast before im kinda hoping it didnt save lmao
good luck lol
ty
Just tried primal fear for the first time, got a good 5 hours of progress and everything gets destroyed by a demonic nameless that came out of who knows where 😐
Just tamed a Rex in scorched earth. Now that I know that gigas don't exist in scorched earth, is there anything dangerous that I should look out for?
10/10 would experience again
Is there any channel that allows you to post photos? How am i supposed to post my problem related to building something if that can't be easy explained with words?
Like Yutyrannus maybe? I’m pretty sure they spawn on scorched
Alright thanks. Now then, I will look for one and tame it
wyverns.
there is a very small chance that a wyvern spawns outside of a trench, and iirc they can spawn anywhere on the map. be careful.
The trench is the middle part of the map with water right?
Oh ok
but 1 stray poison ball from a poison wyvern can very easily 1 shot you, so stay alert.
How do you get Fungal wood on Ragnarok?
why can't i load in lost island bruh
What is the best cave on the island for blueprints
guess my survivor is gone
depends on which blueprints you want
but the east ocean cave, swamp cave, and the hard snow cave are all pretty good
hard ocean cave is good too but it's annoying to loot from what I've heard
What should I use for ocean caves
I have a mosa saddle 100 armor
Should I use mosa for ocean caves
can someone tell me how to fix lost island not starting
a basilo
Why not mosa
basilo is not bothered by jellyfish
turn radius, cnidaria and tusos.
No
Oh Ok
My tribe just became alpha
How do I turn on gamma in multiplayer ps4
bruh why can't i play lost island
in which drops can you get ascendant pump shotguns on?
run gen2 missions youll get some decent shotguns xD
im in the island
well transfer
i dont have gen2, I'm asking which drops can you get ascendant shottys on
its random but you have the most chance by looting red drops in the harder caves
jep
and since your on the island that would be the hard ice cave
so you can basically get it in all drops but chances vary
you can get them in higher tier drops
not grey drops for example
how bout blue or green drops
im not really an expert when it comes to drops
not possible i think
has anyone had an issue where they cant upload or download items and cant transfer off a server
but other people can
i think you need yellow or higher to get acendant things
alr
nope, still in midgame
have you cleared any of the caves?
How do I turn on gamma in multiplayer ps4
does the server allow it?
Yhea
then its the normal keybind/way you do it
anyone else having issues downloading to servers?
On PVE-Steam, i click download, and then it kicks me back to the 'create a character' screen
sever might not allow it
i guess transfers be borked again
im sure wildcard will get to it when people start complaining about it
What should I use to clear the strong cave? I speedran it with a megalania after my lv225 dion almost died trying to clear the first room but I wanna get the drops
which map?
Island
The strong cave
Sorry, the ice one with yetis
the hard ice cave?
Yes?
How does Server Stasis work?
i think most people bring thylas
if all my frineds and I log out, does everything freze in game?
Like for instance, raising baby dinos?
what server you hosting
Dedicated on my own server box.
Hmm. That probably needs to be a maxed thyla with a great saddle to work
can your friends join while your not on?
anyone checked if you can tame the fenrirs hati spawns, cuz they are not special fenrirs or anything, and since you can tame cave creatures rn...
like does the server shut down for the others when you leave @royal talon
No no, I'm asking when a server has no one in it, does everything freeze? Or do dinos go into stasis?
normally no
then what is the whole Stasis thing for Dino's?
cryopods
cryopods
what kibble does maewing eat?
basic
why wont my refining forge light on fire?
The stone one needs gas?
you put wood in it?
no
yea its got wood in it
did you press light fire?
that’s suspicious
its not in the water?
there's not a button saying "Light Fire"
it should be in the middle
