The pike does more damage then my imprinted sabertooth

[fervent herald]

How do you go to other locations in Gen 2?

[exotic mulch]

Skills???

[fervent herald]

First drop I get an assault rifle.. Madness

[fervent raft]

Where can I usually find alpha tuso/mosas

[exotic mulch]

You have a chance everywhere they spawn

[fervent herald]

Which area has the most drop spawns

[atomic plinth]

i am playing on rag i cannot use nets

is captain fatdogs trap working?

for wyverns

?

[silent matrix]

it works

[atomic plinth]

i cannot nlock them on rag

obviously

[atomic plinth]

it seems hard to set up

[cloud knoll]

Can you build in artifact caves in small tribes or is it not allowed?

[grizzled geode]

But I was just asking because I like maps with a lot of stuff and beauty in it

[serene hull]

is it possible to completely stop a dinosaur from spawning? (it disgust me)

singleplayer and megalania

[neon rampart]

you won't be able to get boss tributes from them tho but yes it's possible

[serene hull]

is there a guide on how to remove it? (i will not go near any of the cave if it still in my game

[uneven haven]

guys whats the point in having two refining forges? does refining go faster?

[ruby sleet]

Hello,

We currently play on a dedicated server, hosted by gportal. We play PVE on Fjordur and got some problems with artefacts. They don’t correctly spawn. They don’t spawn on the correct spot and spawn in a big group, like 10 or 15 artifacts of the same kind. Super weird, never saw that before. Any idea about whats happen ? Already try to restart our server, still the same. Tried to go on solo game, but artifact got another bug, they didn’t spawn at all, even after 30 minutes playings …

And one more question. A better chainsaw will harvest more ? Or just faster ? I feel like, I got the same amount with a 100% damage and with a 250%. Is it the normal behavior ?

Please tag me if you have any answer or advice to give me. Have a good day ! 🙂

using mods :
s+
ckfr
rp visual storage
snap fixer plus
dino storage v2
tcs auto reward

[umbral wave]

so it looks like fjordur is working for me now. i think ima start in the volcano island again

[granite hinge]

Should i buy gen2 if so why i dont get it whats so good about it

[neon rampart]

Do you have random supply drop locations enabled?

[static fjord]

get gen 1 instead, its amazing.

[neon rampart]

Also 2nd question's answer is yeah I think it does affect harvest but if it doesn't then durability

[serene hull]

the most disgusting

it is..

contained by a monitor. and it hurt my mental

[neon rampart]

@serene hull DMs

[serene hull]

okie

[ruby sleet]

Yes I do have random supply drop locations enabled. I"ll try to turn off that option then ! And my better chainsaw don't harvest more, I don't know why. Probably a gportal setting for save some network resources (they do the same things for dino harvesting. A lvl 1 will harvest as much as a 150 with default settings, I found how to change for the dino, not for the tools). Anyways, thanks for your answers ! 🙂

[distant sapphire]

So..what dinosaurs can be tek, because ive been collecting em like pokemon cards

I need a list

[ruby sleet]

parasaur
raptor
rex
quetzal
stegosaurus

[neon rampart]

No problem. Good luck on your adventures and you can thank me later by putting any further questions in #bobs-with-probs

[weary loom]

guys can anyone help me

[distant sapphire]

all i beed is quetzal and ill be the ultimate tek master

[neon rampart]

WELCOME to the Technical Collective. I suggest you install the KBD mod since it adds Tek griffins, Tek Ankys, and Tek Gigas. Don't forget Enforcers, Scouts, Stryders, and Voidwyrms. Good luck and flesh is weak.

[wind dawn]

Can i join anyone on ps4 im new

[weary loom]

bruh aint noone willing to help me

[distant sapphire]

Question, What engram is snowy owl saddle in lost island

[distant sapphire]

Well what u need

[weary loom]

can i play with my friends if they play ark over steam and i play it over epic

[distant sapphire]

Ja

[weary loom]

danke

[neon rampart]

What?

[distant sapphire]

Like what engram can i get the snowy owl saddle

[neon rampart]

Snow owl saddle

[tranquil geyser]

Yes only if there is no mods

[weary loom]

normal things

[distant sapphire]

Nah snowy, seems cuter

[neon rampart]

@weary loom Next time ask in #bobs-with-probs and don't ask to ask. You just won't get an answer.

[static fjord]

snowl is better

[weary loom]

bruh who names a channel "bobs with probs" aint noone understanding that

[distant sapphire]

OH shit nvm

Found it

[neon rampart]

The snow owl saddle engram is called snow owl saddle. Every engram is named after their item.

[neon rampart]

In ARK, Bob = noob. Now you know. You're a bob with a prob.

[distant sapphire]

Oh fr?

[weary loom]

ah, thanks now i understand

[static fjord]

bob was also the default character name, now its human with a rare chance of bob.

[neon rampart]

Also true.

[static fjord]

[neon rampart]

Bob is also the character in the ARK: Animated Series.

[distant sapphire]

Hey whats the icon by my stegos health??

[static fjord]

Its plate mode

[distant sapphire]

Plate mode?

[static fjord]

iirc you can switch your plate between 3 modes by using c

each has different abilities, hold H and it'll tell you what each plate does

⚰️

[distant sapphire]

DAMMNN

I never seen this

[static fjord]

stegos have the ability to make the rider immune to dismounts too. maybe theres a few exceptions but a kapro or microraptor wont gran you off your stego.

[distant sapphire]

I wish it had speed mode

[primal patio]

If only there was a pego protection mode

[static fjord]

there was a gallop animation for the stego but it was scrapped iirc

really sucks that stegos are so slow because thats the deal breaker for me.

[distant sapphire]

Yea, only reason i tamed it is because its nice lookin

[neon rampart]

For PvP they are a must have

[distant sapphire]

I can tell

[serene hull]

is there megalania in the artifact of clever cave/

[static fjord]

check wiki, but they arent a big deal if you bring a few med brews or antidote.

[serene hull]

its the fact that i fear them

mentally

[distant sapphire]

If it makes u feel any better, im terrified of big bugs

[static fjord]

you can ask someone like eclipse if you want to remove them from spawning

[serene hull]

and im terrified of lizards, any size (not ancient lizard, just the one that look like modern lizard)

[serene hull]

which esclipe and do i ping them?

[static fjord]

the one thats an ambassador. i can ask them if you want.

[neon rampart]

I literally already sent you a link to change your files to get rid of megalania???

[serene hull]

to complex

[static fjord]

⚰️

[serene hull]

yeah im dumb at computer stuff!!

[onyx vault]

hello guyysss

[neon rampart]

It's a generator.. you only have to click like 4 buttons...?

[static fjord]

can you dm me what you sent dnn

[serene hull]

and copy stuff into the game file

[onyx vault]

yo dnn

@serene hull what lvl do you have on ark ?

[serene hull]

87

[neon rampart]

You have to do that regardless...

[serene hull]

can you guide me 🥺

[river marlin]

Anybody know how to turn off surround sound in ARK? It's randomly started doing it and it tickles my ears uncomfortably

[static fjord]

surround sound?

[river marlin]

Yes, suddenly anythign that emits a sound will only be emitted from one point

[neon rampart]

Steam. Right click on ARK. Properties. Browse local files. Shootergame/saved/config/WindowsNoEditor/Game.ini

Copy and paste what I sent you into there.

@serene hull

[serene hull]

okie

[river marlin]

Ah ok

was heading inthere too XD

[serene hull]

i did it, so no more lizard?

[neon rampart]

Go in game.
Press tab.
Enablecheats
Then
cheat DestroyWildDinos
NOW no more lizards

[static fjord]

do destroyall beehive_c too and pick up any tamed beehives

[neon rampart]

...why? @static fjord

[static fjord]

because after a dinowipe, you'll be left with empty husks of beehives without queens.

[jagged imp]

If I own genesis 2 do all my survivors have the max lvl of 120 on any map or is it just genesis?

[static fjord]

gen 2 doesnt give extra levels by default, you need to beat the bossfight.

[stuck shadow]

Guys, can I find Deathworm Horn in the desert of Ragnarok ?

[river marlin]

From Alpha Deathworms yeah

[serene hull]

how do i know if it worked? i can still spawn them in

[stuck shadow]

Not normal Deathworms ?

And BTW I'm going to steal some Wyvern Egg

[river marlin]

No, but you can alternatively go to the iceworm cave

[stuck shadow]

What to prepare and the what's the strat ?

[stuck shadow]

Yeah but I don't like like getting lost in it

[river marlin]

I think it's deliberate to force players through intended content

[dire ingot]

How do i knock out a karkinos

[stuck shadow]

Guys please help I need advices before going to snatch some Wyvern Eggs

[dim lodge]

When breeding dinos, do you breed for the best stats from the pair or just the stats you actually want like health and damage

[queen light]

anyone know the best place to find good amounts of megalania on fjordur

[static fjord]

hit its abdomen with a catapult or cannon, the former is better.

[static fjord]

you can breed for whatever stats you want as long as the perfect pair have the exact same stats and level, makes it much easier.

[dim lodge]

Right now i'm breeding wild dinos, to get the stats together, do i also need to get the best stats of food, oxygen and weight into the baby ?

[queen light]

i am doing that with my snow owls and you are right, i am trying to get good melee and health on my owls and it is working wonders.

[static fjord]

nope, it can be the bad weight, food and oxygen. what matters is that the perfect pair have the same weight, food and oyxgen in the end.

[dim lodge]

It wont mess with the breeding later on ?

[stuck shadow]

What do I have to prepare for the Wyvern Egg Raid ??

[static fjord]

if you dont want those stats and the perfect pair have same level and stats, nope.

[dim lodge]

Ok thanks

[queen light]

what map are you getting the eggs on

[stuck shadow]

It's Ragnarok

[light sparrow]

For some reason my tekgrams are gone even when I use the giveengrams code

[queen light]

get a tapejara, fly into the trench, grab the egg you want, then fly the tapejara to a cave in the higher up trench and enter the cave on the left side of the stone bridge in there

[stuck shadow]

Woah this is a bit complicated

And this is too simple (not in "easy" way)

[queen light]

you can find tapejaras in the spino canyon

[light sparrow]

I usually just GMsummon my wyverns save myself the headache

I have a female fire wyvern I named Elizabeth like the one from Shrek xD

[gray patio]

i ve just ran away on my Desmodus from the fire wyvern trench with 3 fire wyvern fertilized eggs and 2 magmasaur fertilized eggs in the fjordur map, do the magmasaur ones hatch with air conditioning too? and where do i find easy sulfur in the map?

and any easy way to get wyvern milk? like a trap or something?

[queen light]

is anyone else mad that you cant pick up eggs with a whip while on the desmodus

[stuck shadow]

I have not found any

[gray patio]

nah, i just go stealth and at the last moment get off and risk my life for a few eggs

[stuck shadow]

But I've found 3 near there, over the Beaver damp

[gray patio]

no whip gang

[queen light]

the whip would make it SOOO much easier

[stuck shadow]

But none of them are higher than lvl 60

[gray patio]

F

i ve never catched a tapejara yet

they are too fast

[queen light]

you just need to have good health and weight

[queen light]

two words: rare flowers

[stuck shadow]

But why Tapejara ?
I find these creatures not very fast

[gray patio]

is the tropeognatus a good investment of my time? i mean... he has a mounted grenade launcher and a gas jet engine on his back

[stuck shadow]

Man me and my friend used to be chasing a 140 Tapejara all over the map

It was a nightmare and in the end we couldn't even tame it

[gray patio]

when i approach one even with guille armor i can t hit with the bola because they start flying away miles away

[queen light]

they can dodge the breath attacks really easily by flying sideways and backwards

[atomic plinth]

GUYS please help

can 4 turrets kill an alpha wyvern?

and does the captain fatdogs wyvern trap work on alphas?

[stuck shadow]

I thought speed and endurance is the key ?

[queen light]

yes

[atomic plinth]

with 100 ammo?

in each

[queen light]

put 150-200 and you should be good

[atomic plinth]

i do not have

i have around 180 ammo in each

[queen light]

yes but also you need to be able to dodge their breath attacks

[queen light]

then you are good

[tranquil geyser]

Just eat a rear flower and bola them them there you go

[queen light]

thats what i said

[atomic plinth]

who long will it take?

[stuck shadow]

Do tapejaras just wander through the map and they don't despawn ?

[atomic plinth]

for the turrets to kill this aplha?

[queen light]

yes

[gray patio]

how many air conditioner to reach needed temperature for hatching magmasaur egg?

[stuck shadow]

You said "rare flower", he said "rear flower"

[atomic plinth]

and can alphas break stone?

wyverns

[gray patio]

atm i have like 16

[queen light]

yes

[muted sky]

Seems like you can kinda die in creative mode by going through the map border

[tranquil geyser]

It was the same thing

[atomic plinth]

i have a genny protected by a stone case and four turrets

can i take on this wyvern?

[queen light]

do you have a fast mount

[atomic plinth]

a ptera

and a rex

and an argy

and one friend as bait

[queen light]

does the ptera have good stam

[stuck shadow]

Now ur speaking of speed ?

[atomic plinth]

700

maybe a bit more

[queen light]

for him to lure an alpha wyvern which is faster than a normal wyvern and he is trying to kill it

[atomic plinth]

so?

can i do this?

i can sacrafice all of these tames

whey are bred spare ones

[stuck shadow]

For every Ptera, only 2 words "Stamina" and "Weight"

[queen light]

lure the wyvern in a circle around the turrets with the ptera and you are good

[atomic plinth]

ok i will trust you

[stuck shadow]

Hey um where the Tapejara are likely to spawn ?

[queen light]

jungle near blue ob and the spino canyon

[tranquil geyser]

What map

[stuck shadow]

Ragnarok mate

[stuck shadow]

Jungle blue ob ?

[tranquil geyser]

Yes

[queen light]

yeah

[stuck shadow]

I've been flying in the Spino canyon to tame some spinos for a while now, but I haven't seen any

[stuck shadow]

Where is that ?

[queen light]

head to blue ob and look northwest

[stuck shadow]

blue ob

Oh

[muted sky]

Did they ever shrink the Giga and titanosaur?

[stuck shadow]

The big floating pillar thingy right ?
That's where my old base was, I saw some tapejaras there for a few times, but haven't seen one sinced I moved base

[muted sky]

They seem much smaller than last time I saw them

[queen light]

yeah

[stuck shadow]

Thanks a lot

[queen light]

no problem

[placid sundial]

yes normal worms drop horns @river marlin

[queen light]

i may have never killed an alpha wyvern but i have killed a giga and alpha rex at once with three auto turrets and 200 bullets each

[placid sundial]

rag doesnt even have alpha worms

[stuck shadow]

OK so should I make Wyvern traps ?

[queen light]

when you are wanting wyvern milk then yes

[stuck shadow]

Tapejaras are not faster than Wyvern yet they are versatile right

[queen light]

yes

[stuck shadow]

What about griffins ?
Are they suitable for the mission ?

[tranquil geyser]

When they dive down they get more speed then a wyvern it is the best mount to steel eggs on Ragnarok

[queen light]

yes but they will also fight back and can do a good amount of damage but

and are hard to trap

[stuck shadow]

I don't pour upgrades in damage

[frozen folio]

Please help, I've been trying to tame a basilisk for an hour now, he does not want to eat the eggs (DROPPED FROM MY INVENTORY, FERTILIZED MAGMASAUR EGGS), I tried a classic big trap with foundations so he won't dig in the ground, then I tried with a single foundation and a dodo to aggro on it. Nothing is working. Please help.

[stuck shadow]

Only stam

[queen light]

what map are you taming them on

[frozen folio]

Lost Island

[queen light]

do you have a sino

[stuck shadow]

spino ?

[frozen folio]

Nvm he died to a single hyena

[queen light]

no a sino (sinomacrops)

[frozen folio]

I do

I do have one

[stuck shadow]

thought it was a casino for a sec

[frozen folio]

but it did aggro on the dodo the same way

So I don't see how it could help

[queen light]

drop the egg nearby and get it to slither over it, thats how i tamed mine on fjordur

[frozen folio]

I did that too

I even ate some rare flowers after it got stuck in the foundation attacking the dodo, and circled it around back there again with the eggs

[queen light]

fly high enough for it to unaggro

[frozen folio]

I'll try that next time ig

[queen light]

i dont think it works with a trap, i didnt use one

[turbid leaf]

They can.

[queen light]

it probably does but i dont use traps for taming

[kind crane]

Trying to get wyvern milk when all the wyverns are lvl 220 😐

It killed me and my pteradon and escaped my trap

[west fog]

Put a shoulder pet under a foundation then let basilisk aggro to foundy then go up and drop eggs by it’s face

Only when it roars tho

[atomic plinth]

WTF the wyvern ternch on rag at night is completely empty me and my friends found only one wyvern and collected 6 eggs

why is that?

something is broken?

there was only one poison wyvernand an alpha

[neon rampart]

Wyvern nests need wyverns to make wyvern eggs. Do a wild dino wipe.

[uneven haven]

how easy it to kill those big snakey thingys

[turbid leaf]

Which ones? Basilisks or Titanaboas?

[uneven haven]

titanaboas

just figured it out, killed two of them with an stone arrow to the head with a crossbow

[neon rampart]

Easiest way to kill 'em.

[uneven haven]

btw can u bola alpha raptors

[inner karma]

With any tame that has ok health can kill a titanboa

No

[uneven haven]

what

why not, thats so stupid

[inner karma]

I learned the hard way that you CANT bola alpha raptors

[inner karma]

It’s annoying but they are pretty easy to kill with a trike

[uneven haven]

Sadly I dont have a trike

its ridiclous on how many traqs u have to have

[silent matrix]

Yes

[uneven haven]

what about a longneck?

[silent matrix]

Longneck is good for anything lol

Especially if you have shocking darts

[inner karma]

Any gun can also kill an alpha raptor

[uneven haven]

ah

there are two alpha raptors guarding a crystal/metal deposit I want

one male and female

[silent matrix]

At least I think so

[stuck shadow]

Hey guys, how to keep cool when wandering though the desert in Ragnarok ?

[inner karma]

Try to build a trap for a trike, tame it and then kill the alpha raptors

[silent matrix]

You wearing desert armor??

[inner karma]

Make sure it’s a high level trike

[silent matrix]

Aaahhh the taming trap. Always good

[stuck shadow]

What animal would suit the best for a desert trip

[silent matrix]

Hmmm

Well if you want portable water, a morellatops

However they are from the desert XD

[uneven haven]

OR, I can sneak up the mountain get some crystal craft a scope for my longneck and go to town

there is a little gap i can get up thats filled with mostly herbs

so Hopefully the raptors dont come over looking for a snack

[inner karma]

That would also work (maybe) but I’d suggest you get a trike. You wouldn’t need to craft bullets which can be annoying to get early game. It takes a Lot of bullets to kill a alpha raptor. You and your trike would get some good exp too

[uneven haven]

how many traq arrows would I need

[neon rampart]

Uh, personally I suggest only something level 130+ and a 150 requires 12 tranq darts from a longneck, so I guess 20-30?

[unique thorn]

Hello awesome peeps

[pliant lodge]

Use dododex

[unique thorn]

Darts are 3 times more efficient so yeah I would say 30 to 40 arrows

[uneven haven]

damn

[unique thorn]

I don't really trust it plus what's the fun in knowing every single stat?

[atomic plinth]

Why there was an empty wyvern trench with 5 eggs? On rag, at night

[uneven haven]

well ok I can do that, but how do I set up the trap

[atomic plinth]

I noticed that wyverns are much less active at night

[unique thorn]

What do you want to tame?

[uneven haven]

trike

[atomic plinth]

Just 2x2 stronę bok

*box

1 walk high

[neon rampart]

You can field tame a trike let's be honest here.

[atomic plinth]

*wall

[neon rampart]

No need for a trap

[atomic plinth]

Yeah

[unique thorn]

Ah ok. Get a trike from lvl50 to lvl100 now that you just started and start leveling it up. You don't need a special trap. Just a 2x2 with doorframes. Stone and up btw.

[uneven haven]

yea cant I just get on a high rock and do traqs at it

[neon rampart]

You could, or you could just... press the S key while you shoot at it.

[sour fog]

My greenhouse gonna have 24 medium crop plots. I wanna grow 2 berry types in them. Mejo berries and narco berries. The rest of the remaining crop plots I will grow crops for kibble. How many plots should I grow narco and mejo berries in?

[uneven haven]

no thanks, I dont like running that risk ngl

[neon rampart]

🤷🏽‍♂️ To each their own!

[unique thorn]

Yeah trikes, raptors and pteranodons are easy to field tame

[kind crane]

You can field tame trex and carnos too just get 150 movement speed

[neon rampart]

I recommend 6. Personally, I use large crop plots since they store more crops and allow for more downtime of checking (because I never check on my crops)

Yeah. I've never built a trap for carnos, rexes, trikes, raptors (never tamed a raptor before, they suck), or pteradons... wait a second... do pteradon traps exist??

And who uses them?

[unique thorn]

Anyone know a good place to find a lot of Rex's? Like A LOT. I need around 10 for a big raid

[kind crane]

I use bolas on pteradons and usually one or two shot them

[fossil igloo]

hey guys i decided to try and finish the ark again. switch is so behind we only have the island, any tips on playing solo? is it better to try to defend or have multiple bases

[uneven haven]

so where do I shoot the Tranqs in the body or head

[turbid leaf]

What map?

[unique thorn]

Well taming a raptor is great if you just want to explore

[neon rampart]

Body!!! Trikes have dmg resistance in their head

[unique thorn]

Island

[uneven haven]

ok thanks

[neon rampart]

I have 160ms. I'm faster than most of my creatures tbh lol.

[turbid leaf]

Carno Island or black sands.

[neon rampart]

oh my god pteradon traps exist, and why are they more expensive then my argentavis trap?

[fossil igloo]

wheres black sands?

[neon rampart]

The river with black sand next to the redwoods.

[unique thorn]

Oh really? Black sands? I never thought it had a lot of Rex's

[kind crane]

Argentavis trap just need one gate and 5 stone fence supports

[sour fog]

I checked the wiki it says the size of crop plots does not affect the amount of berries it can hold. It can only hold 300 berries regardless of crop plot size

[turbid leaf]

It's decent. Island is generally poor.

[unique thorn]

Ok.

[neon rampart]

Seriously? Holy shit you learn something new everyday.

[unique thorn]

Next map is gonna be Ragnarok lol.

[sour fog]

Also. 6 plots for narco and 6 plots for mejo. Or 6 plots in total for both berries

[kind crane]

I dont like the island tbh

[neon rampart]

Personally I go for 4 max and farm about 3k. 3k is surplus.

[neon rampart]

Island is so broke and filled with 0 DLC creatures, terrible base locations, and so terribly small that Ragnarok is just infinitely more nostalgic and better.

[turbid leaf]

It has nostalgia. And good bosses.

[neon rampart]

Apparently, 300

No matter the plot

[kind crane]

• i hate the the fucking swamp biome and its position

Whenever i wanted to tame an argy id have to travel across 1 or 2 swamps and get jumped by leeches and those crocodiles that grab you

[sour fog]

Lol I was confused too. The only difference in the size of crop plots is that the large on holds more water than the medium which holds more water than the small. Another difference is that some plants can only be planted in a certain size crop plot.

[kind crane]

Theres no point in using larger than necessary crop plots

[neon rampart]

Wait, what about fertilizer holding?

[atomic plinth]

Will captain fatdogs wyvern trap work on Alpha wyverns?

[turbid leaf]

10 each.

[neon rampart]

Omfg

[neon rampart]

Yes, it does.

[atomic plinth]

A normal female gives 5 milk

An Alpha gives 50

[neon rampart]

I think that's why he's asking if the trap works lol.

[atomic plinth]

We are raising 6 wyverns

We need a lot od milk

[kind crane]

Can i breed a fire wyvern with an electrical wyvern

[neon rampart]

No

[atomic plinth]

We have 4 turrets

[neon rampart]

Lots of wyvern questions currently lol.

[neon rampart]

You on PvP?

[atomic plinth]

Nooo

[kind crane]

Well im hatchin wyverns

[atomic plinth]

Non dedi

[kind crane]

My first ones

[turbid leaf]

Alpha is the same speed.

[atomic plinth]

No

Faster

[turbid leaf]

Someone needs to correct the wiki then.

[kind crane]

I have 10 standing torches n 7 campfires n the wyvern eggs are still too cold

[neon rampart]

Get ACs

[charred prism]

they defo can

cringe

[neon rampart]

Dododex? Wrong? No, impossible.

[spring thistle]

quick question, im not leveling up in my nitrado ark server (stuck at level 80 with neither the inventory or the hub xp bar going up at all. does anyone know why this happens/how to fix it?

[atomic plinth]

Hey futurer you asked how my egg collecting went, so basically

Yes

And now my friends and i got 4 more eggs

One of them is a 165 lightning

And the test are crappy poison ones

[neon rampart]

My girlfriend found a 180 deino egg... on accident.

[atomic plinth]

I found an 145 deino

[neon rampart]

She's like "What's this?" and then she goes "Oh shit! We're playing guess the level!"

[kind crane]

I got 2 level 220 eggs and the trench was empty so no wyverns chased me..

[neon rampart]

boosted don't count!

[kind crane]

Boosted?

[solar seal]

Guys what rates are good for singleplayer

[neon rampart]

Max level in wyvern trench is 190 so you're playing boosted.

[solar seal]

is 3x taming good enough

[atomic plinth]

Idk what is going on, the trench is full od eggs but no wyverns

[solar seal]

too sus

[kind crane]

Is that bad?

[atomic plinth]

So we got ale we could find

[kind crane]

My rexes are lvl 300 lol

[neon rampart]

I don't know. It's how you play. Do you like playing with your rates?

[atomic plinth]

And no wyvern followed us

Idk what is going on

[neon rampart]

Play however you wanna play.

[solar seal]

I forgor to pump up harvest rates bruh

[west ruin]

Is anyone lvl 120 on pc so you can help me with an astrodelphis saddle?

[atomic plinth]

Like it is not that they didnt aggro, they just werent there

I noticed that there are much less wyverns at night

Nooo, i feel like i cheated right now

[neon rampart]

Harvest rates aren't that bad.

On SP/private servers, I play 1x harvesting with hella boosted breeding, slightly boosted XP, and slightly boosted taming.

[atomic plinth]

Do you reccomend krakens better dinos mod?

And what breeding settings do you use?

[neon rampart]

HIGHLY. I don't play without it.

I use 20x maturation and 10x breeding interval and hatching, which means 9-24 hour cooldown, most dinos grow in a couple hours, eggs take max an hour to hatch without incubation boost.

[long flicker]

it's a pretty good mod

[steel charm]

What stats to upgrade with astrodelphis'

[neon rampart]

The mod is really good IMO because it makes useless dinos actually somewhat useful. Scorpions produce free narcotics, all flyers are buffed cuz of Reins, and more.

[solar seal]

I mean they are kinda realistic but games arent supposed to be realistic

[neon rampart]

Not at all. If you asked me harvest rates in 2016, I would of said 10x, but now that I know how to play, resources are the least of my problems.

[atomic plinth]

I Play on 2x

[gray patio]

in single player by default the max level u can find a wild dino is 150, right?

[neon rampart]

Depends on the map, generally, not really.

[kind crane]

I forgot to put sparkpowder in the preserving bin so when i needed to use wyvern milk it was gone 😐

[atomic plinth]

Yes

[gray patio]

i ve found a fire wyvern egg wich was generated by 2 lv165 parents

damn

[visual musk]

👀

[neon rampart]

Default is 30

[atomic plinth]

But the density of them levels is different for each map

[atomic plinth]

With the defalut settings

[neon rampart]

That's what they are asking

[gray patio]

i m on fjordur, maybe that s why

[atomic plinth]

No

Wyverns have 30 more max levels

[neon rampart]

....

@gray patio Yes, on Fjordur, Ragnarok, and other non-story maps, the default is 150, not 30.

[gray patio]

oh and 2 minutes and the lv101 magmasaur will hatch, i had to use 17 ac to keep it warm enough

[turbid leaf]

They have less max levels when tamed, because of taming effectiveness.

[atomic plinth]

But i would advice to change the difficultty slider to max

[gray patio]

then how did i find a lv165

[neon rampart]

Eggs can go up to 180/190

[atomic plinth]

.

[neon rampart]

Max dino you can tame is 150. Max dino you can hatch is 190.

[gray patio]

not the egg itself, only the dinos that i stole it from it says that they were at that level

i ve not even seen them around the nest

[neon rampart]

The max dino you can tame is 150. You can find up to level 400s.

[gray patio]

ok

[ember grove]

Its Monday Wild Card are you guys gonna fix Fjordur yet no dino's spawning the entire event?

[neon rampart]

Lol

[light sparrow]

If you use the spawn command you can go beyond that at least in single player

[solar seal]

The Island 120. Most other maps 150, unless you boost difficulty over 1.0

[turbid leaf]

If you don't change any settings it's 30.

[neon rampart]

Sometimes, I wonder why I bother to answer questions for new players.

[gray patio]

ok

[turbid leaf]

120/150 is at difficulty 1.

[light sparrow]

I've spawned in levels beyond 4000

[gray patio]

ik

[neon rampart]

Wow. In default? That's crazy.

[tepid knoll]

Yo is it still 3 times?

Untill when?

[turbid leaf]

It's commands you can go to a million, but is that natural spawning?

[light sparrow]

Yep default settings

[neon rampart]

15th

[light sparrow]

You're right, it is commands but I'm just making a point

[tepid knoll]

Phew thank god

[tepid knoll]

Thank you 🙏

[neon rampart]

Yeah, and if I tame a dino, it can go to like level 200 and I can find it

[wispy frigate]

You can do nearly anything with commands

Saying “I can do x with commands” in response to a question not about commands is kind of pointless

[neon rampart]

Kind of? Lmfao

[crystal arrow]

Any know how to get some good schematics on the island without fightin a shit ton of alphas

[light sparrow]

True I have Tek armor without crafting it

[gray patio]

the magmasaur came out lv150, is there any method to speed up the growing process or i ll just have to wait an eternity?

[light sparrow]

Are you playing on a server? Are you playing in single player?

[silent matrix]

If ur on official no, on singleplayer u can put up the maturation speed in adv. Settings

[light sparrow]

I have a friend who hasn't been on lately so I've just been playing on single player with commands because his server he allows commands I've basically just been getting all of the ascension things by using the commands

[gray patio]

single player

[light sparrow]

As stated earlier, that's a advanced setting for that

[gray patio]

F

and another thing, do magmasaurs take damage in water or rain? i know they are immune to wyvern fire but i ve heard they can die with water

[light sparrow]

That I don't know

[jagged imp]

Does the auto engram mod make it so u can learn map specific engrams on any map? (Considering u have got the dlcs)

[light sparrow]

You don't even need a mod. Just use the command. Giveengrams and it gives you everything If the server allows commands or you're in single player

[jagged imp]

I don't mean all the engrams on a command since I don't use cheats, I mean can u get them legit using that mod. For example the wing suit on the island, and so on. Since u can only unlock it on I think aberration so does the mod allow me to unlock it legit on other maps?

[light sparrow]

Mods are never legit. Anyways, that's the same thing

[placid sundial]

'legit' is already an idea that auto engram mods as a concept throw out. some are potentially configurable

[neon rampart]

You don't need a mod or to use cheats. You can enable your files to give you auto engrams.

[placid sundial]

It unlocks tekgrams tho

[neon rampart]

Does it? Wouldn't know. I play on a primitive-only server.

[placid sundial]

there's very few times i recommend a mod over config, but the auto engrams one has a history of being buggy

[neon rampart]

It's often just as laggy tho tbh.

[light sparrow]

I like how people using mods over the cheats cuz it's about the same thing

[placid sundial]

The one I use isn't particularly laggy, there's a slight bump right after you finish levelling and like.. that's it

[placid sundial]

and boosting your taming speed is also cheating, by that logic

it's practically using forcetame

[neon rampart]

Giveengrams gives every single engram, as compared to auto engrams which gives you engrams based on your level, which is far less cheat-y.

[placid sundial]

auto engrams is just QoL, i hate having to click 2000 times after i mindwipe

[neon rampart]

Agreed. Plus, who decided to make it so that this game is nigh-impossible to have all engrams solo?

[trail summit]

if I have a griffin but no fjordhawk, do y'all think I could escape a wyvern trench with minimal casualties?

[neon rampart]

Absolutely.

Just play it smart.

[jagged imp]

Thanks for everyone responding but relating back to my original question it does give me those map specific engrams with the auto engram mod right?

[trail summit]

ooh I am not good at that

[light sparrow]

I know it's weird right? The only way to get all the engrams is to cheat you have to learn them on other maps otherwise

[neon rampart]

"- Unlocks regardless of DLC restrictions"

[jagged imp]

Thank you.

[neon rampart]

Uh, not what I meant. I meant you don't have enough engram points to unlock all the engrams.

[placid sundial]

if it's a big concern, you may want to consider boosting points per level and using manual unlocks. If you don't mind wearing your mouse out clicking them less

[placid sundial]

yeah it's so much of a challenge to transfer to SE and click a few times and then transfer out again

it's so cheaty to not sit through that loading screen twice

[open sonnet]

hi does anyone have a rex saddle blueprint to exchange please official serveur

[neon rampart]

PVP? PVE?

[open sonnet]

Pvp

[light sparrow]

Why would anyone want to give you an advantage if it was PVP?

[open sonnet]

a bit of niceness doesn't hurt

[light sparrow]

I run people through PVE but PVP it's like I get super competitive so I just didn't really understand the logic

[tough yarrow]

Try asking in #pvp-discussion and specify official/smalls/beginner 🙂

[neon rampart]

On Official servers, the likelyhood of you running into the same person twice in the entire cluster is pretty damn rare. If this was a private cluster where there's only like 7 different maps/servers... then you'd be a little protective of your BPs.

[kind crane]

Aight imma execute my baby trex now

[gritty ice]

Where can I find the Ab otters on Fjordur?

[placid sundial]

https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Spawn_Map/Fjordur

[light sparrow]

Tryy under your shirt xD

[gritty ice]

That only gives coords. Are they in the lunar cave? Or Moria?

[placid sundial]

If the lunar cave is on those locations, yeah

There's also a spot in vanaheim

the hard thing about not using coords is that 'the plains on asgard' could have like 5 different containers and only some parts of it actually have the spawns

[gritty ice]

Saw regular otters there, no ab yet.

[kind crane]

Can wyverns glide?

[abstract lava]

How do I use Mjolnir?

[placid sundial]

No

which is why specific coords are helpful

Because there's only one small part of it they spawn in

That said, I was in a cave with a biolum spawner, I think it was moria

[sour fog]

After then island which map is next story wise?

[charred prism]

to get basilosaurus blubber you only need to kill it right?

[gritty shard]

Scorched then aberation then extinction then gen 1 then gen 2

[gritty shard]

Yeah

[charred prism]

huh

must be bugged then

[sour fog]

What about those other maps like center, lost island, ragnorak, etc

[gritty shard]

Those are non story maps

[sour fog]

Oh ok

[gritty shard]

But the non story maps are pretty fun so you should give them a try

[silver mesa]

how many ovis should i tame for a fjordhawk

[neon rampart]

2-3

[grave summit]

Bow Mortals

I have acquired the stupid hammer

A true testament to my ability to breed t-rexes

[keen zodiac]

How many dinosaurs could I take to fight the bosses

[trail summit]

will extraordinary kibble work for therizinos?

[neon rampart]

Ye

[trail summit]

oh sweet!!!

[plush sonnet]

why does dododex say fjordhawk doesn’t fit through doorframes? can you not walk through a door with one?

[silent matrix]

Are you level 190?

[silent matrix]

Which map is that?

[neon rampart]

I'm assuming that by itself it cannot fit through a doorframe.

[placid sundial]

https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Spawn_Map/Fjordur#Vanaheim-0

[silent matrix]

Oh lol. Never have been there

[keen zodiac]

What kibble works on yuttyrannus

[silent matrix]

Yellow i think

And extraordinary

Look dododex

Ok obly extraordinary

[neon rampart]

Extraordinary+

[silent matrix]

Extraordinary is the best

[surreal jewel]

is 460 tranq darts enough for a lvl 135 giga?

[stuck marsh]

Bruh has any1 else had hard time finding griffins on rag i went over 3 spawn locations haven't seen a single one

[silent matrix]

Prim rifle?

[plush sonnet]

how do you hatch deinon eggs on fjordur

[neon rampart]

Exceptional+

[silent matrix]

Like everywhere else

[silent matrix]

No only extraordinary

[neon rampart]

Exceptional and above

[plush sonnet]

fjordur is a lot colder

[stuck marsh]

has any1 else had hard time finding griffins on rag i went over 3 spawn locations haven't seen a single one?

[silent matrix]

Only extraordinary

Nothing below

[neon rampart]

(Exceptional and above)

[surreal jewel]

?

[silent matrix]

No. 1st i tried it myself. 2nd look dododex

[neon rampart]

Probably not tbh

[plush sonnet]

how many deinons have you hatched on fjordur?

[silent matrix]

A few

[surreal jewel]

i have 10x taming speed thing

[silent matrix]

20 or so

[neon rampart]

Doesn't matter

[plush sonnet]

how many torches did it take?

[silent matrix]

Oh idk. I used ACs

And it depends on the area you at

[neon rampart]

Damn I am fucking tired

I fully believed that yutys take exceptional kibble.

Mb

[silent matrix]

Take 10 or so. They aren‘t expensive to craft

And you don‘t have to ligth all

And if it‘s not enougth add more

Is anyone lagging really hard rn

[blissful fox]

Did they change how eggs work in the past couple years?

I remember seeing them out in the wild, now I haven’t seen a single one

[plush sonnet]

i see em sometimes

[patent canopy]

can xbox players play with pc players on non dedicated servers?

[plush sonnet]

only if it’s the “windows” version of the game and not steam version

[patent canopy]

how do i get that?

[plush sonnet]

microsoft store

[patent canopy]

will i have to pay for it again

[tranquil geyser]

Yes

[patent canopy]

damn

[kind crane]

What map is that

[patent canopy]

any other ways i could play with my friends

[placid sundial]

https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Spawn_Map/Fjordur#Vanaheim-0

[plush sonnet]

its $10 on steam right now if they wanna buy it

[kind crane]

Fjordur dont look like that

[placid sundial]

it's one of the realms.

[sour fog]

What does the aggression lvl called 'Attack your target' do?

[placid sundial]

Attacks what you attack

[sour fog]

Isn't that neutral?

[placid sundial]

Neutral wont attack unless damaged

They're similar though

[sour fog]

O ok

Thanks

So should I have my creatures on neutral or attack your target?

[placid sundial]

Depedns what you want them to do

[plush sonnet]

how do you figure out the max post-taming stat of a creature? like the best possible one ever

like i want to know how good this 435 stamina pteranodon is

do they ever get to 500?

[slate widget]

the bonus tamed levels add points into all stats. the more levels the more stats. its always a chance on if they go into the stat you want tho.

[plush sonnet]

yeah but what's the best possible stamina a pteranodon can have after taming it with 99% effectiveness

[slate widget]

depends on the level and your settings. then its just a luck thing 🤷

[plush sonnet]

what settings

and max level

[slate widget]

singleplayer settings then the individual stat related settings.

[plush sonnet]

but the pteranodon with the best stamina i got was tamed at 145 instead of 150 like some others

[placid sundial]

'best possible' is so infinitely unobtainable it's not worth even trying to compare to it

[plush sonnet]

i'm on an unofficial server

[slate widget]

like I said, its random what the points go into. you could theoretically get a level 50 better than a 150 🤷

[plush sonnet]

ok then what's some kind of benchmark to see how good your tame is

[placid sundial]

Best possible means all 224 points went into stam which is so infinitely small

[placid sundial]

i go 45+ points on a flyer

[plush sonnet]

45 what

[placid sundial]

40 with normal

[plush sonnet]

what are individual stat settings?

[slate widget]

you need to either use an egg incubator or a mod to see that unless you want to use the power of maths (or out of game calc)

[plush sonnet]

i can use the power of maths or a calc

[slate widget]

the wiki has all the info on finding how many points are in the stat. wouldn't recommend tho :P

https://ark.wiki.gg/wiki/Pteranodon

[slate widget]

bottom of the advanced tab in the singleplayer menu. all those dino stat settings.

[plush sonnet]

are those on unofficial servers?

[slate widget]

yeah, they default to 1(some of them) but some unofficials change them

[placid sundial]

exceptions are melee and health which are far lower

[plush sonnet]

do they start the same as official server settings?

[placid sundial]

lot of people mistakenly set them to 1 thinking its default

[slate widget]

the defaults should all be the same

[placid sundial]

Except for singleplayer settings box iirc yeah

Oh and level override

[slate widget]

yeah, that changes things very much away from the official default

they can

[placid sundial]

they can

[slate widget]

how else would dinos on ab work lol

[plush sonnet]

they're just adapted to radiation

they're still cool

[oak raptor]

Hello

[slate widget]

yeah, fjordur and some of the other free maps have some of the ab varients. fjordur even has some X/R varients

[plush sonnet]

ok so let's say i want to combine the health and stamina of one pteranodon and the melee damage of the other, and be able to reproduce many pteranodons with the combined stats

do i just breed those 2 together until i get a male and female babies each with all 3 good stats, then breed them together infinitely?

also they should really add an incest penalty to this game

[slate widget]

yeah.

[slate widget]

no

that would make mutations useless

[plush sonnet]

loooooool

you sound like a showdog breeder

idk i don't wanna make some pteranodon siblings mate

[slate widget]

no mutations for you then :P

https://thumbs.gfycat.com/EnchantedExemplaryBetafish-max-1mb.gif

[plush sonnet]

well supposedly i'm screwed on mutations anyway cuz one of these pteranodons was tamed at 150 and one was tamed at 145

[slate widget]

why?

[plush sonnet]

so now i will not be able to identify mutations orsmth

[slate widget]

mutations add levels.

they change the stats too there is a mutation counter in the ancestor menu as well

just breed those 2 until you get them the same with the higher stats, then you switch out the male (and only the male) when you get one with a mutation you want.

[plush sonnet]

although i'm not sure i wanna start mutating pteranodons, mostly just want to have an infinite supply of decent ones for when my noob tribemates end up getting theirs killed

[slate widget]

that makes sense. I would still suggest making the 2 parents the perfect ones so they are identical :P

[plush sonnet]

ty!

they are already wondering why i'm just taming a bunch of pteranodons instead of exploring random stuff on the world

[cyan widget]

im looking players for PvE serwer steam 15+ polish/english dm me

[plush sonnet]

and then one of them got his pteranodon stuck at the top of the volcano and died

[lament sentinel]

do you no longer get the SotF trophie from winning SotF ?

[carmine palm]

who think that putting a HIDEN decay timer on dinos and only displaying the timer in structure is stupid ????

i feel like putting a timer on your wall so you know and comeback to discover that your dinos decayed because there was a hiden timer on the dino, is a stupid choice in a game

make people plan to comeback to their base on a timer that dont even means anything because the timer that matter is not showed up because of the bad decision of a dev

[plush sonnet]

seems weird that the dino decay was faster than the structure

[velvet parrot]

What are conquest servers

[fickle widget]

anyone able to give me good breeding ember wyvern lines for free?

[keen zodiac]

To fight the mini boss

[silent matrix]

Is it against the rules to put turrets on tp spots on fjdor

[keen zodiac]

What is fjdor?

[silent matrix]

Sorry can’t spell new map

[full shore]

So I've started raising rock drakes and what would be the best path/way to breed them to get the most out of these rocks I have?

M with 37 weight, M with 36 health and 35 oxygen, F with 40 stamina and 33 food, F with 39 melee.

In what order should I breed them to get a rock drake that has those stats in egg state?

[full shore]

Newest map out rn

[slate widget]

@fickle widget don't spam multiple channels. use the #pvp-discussion and #pve-discussion for small trades (at your own risk) make sure you say what server and what platform #role-assignment

[keen zodiac]

Ain't ever heard of a map call fjdor

[fickle widget]

hush

[slate widget]

fjordur

[full shore]

I'm not the one who spelt it wrong

[keen zodiac]

Ahh, I've heard of that map

[silent matrix]

I still don’t know how to say it😭

thats because its not lol

pretty sure the j doesn't make a j sound :P like mjolnir

[silent matrix]

does the hammer even do anything?

[slate widget]

yeah

[silent matrix]

Is it good?

[slate widget]

lets you teleport and shoot lightning and stuffs

you gotta be level 190 to use it tho 😂

[silent matrix]

gonna need to watch some on YouTube about it

[silent matrix]

ok yeah I ain’t ever using that😂

[light dome]

Is there a setting to make weather events occur more often?

[tawny wasp]

or just use ARK Smart Breeding 🤷🏻‍♂️

[slate widget]

never used it 🤷

I did say use a calc online lol

[slate widget]

see

[velvet parrot]

How many days does it take for an official server to wipe

[slate widget]

officials never wipes except arkpoc (30 days) and beginners (3 months I think)

[velvet parrot]

Oh so those 300 irl day old servers are new right?

[slate widget]

sometimes the counter gets reset don't think its actuate.

[velvet parrot]

Does conquest or small tribes wipe?

[slate widget]

small tribes doesn't.

I think conquest does for each season but I might be thinking of classic. I can't remember :P

[velvet parrot]

ok

[slate widget]

they both seem to wipe I think.

those aren't regular tho

[fervent herald]

Anyone willing to trade a pvp Dino for 275 shard

[plush sonnet]

what is ark smart breeding?

does it only work if you save the creature's pre-tamed levels?

[slate widget]

@tawny wasp

[uncut eagle]

Anyone know why dinos dissapear ? 😂😂

Wild dinls

Dinos*

[slate widget]

just random dinos? what map

[uncut eagle]

Fjordur

[slate widget]

dinos usually only despawn when they are out of their spawn area and unloaded

officials?

[uncut eagle]

Yes

[slate widget]

fjordur has some spawning issues right now.

[trail summit]

is it stupid to make up like 300 kibble?

[uncut eagle]

Its like i see some dino, and when i come back to tame it... its not there 🥲

[slate widget]

if you use it no.

[uncut eagle]

I suppose and i hope they fix... bc its terrible

No sense....

[tawny wasp]

Windows app that lets you calculate levels from a creature's values, doesn't matter if wild, tamed, bred, imprinted, etc., or calculates values from levels, lets you keep track of them in a library, helps organise breeding if needed, etc.

[uncut eagle]

Also suddenly there is no wild dinos spawning, and see only alphas

Its crazy.. hope fix soon...

[trail summit]

wait can you feed tamed creatures kibble?

[fervent herald]

Yes

[uncut eagle]

Thanks for ur reply 👌🏽😊

[fervent herald]

Heals em alot

[slate widget]

there isn't a point in it but I believe so.

[trail summit]

lets go

my dodo is gonna live like a king

[slate widget]

gonna feed your dodo its own eggs. smh

[light dome]

No. They’ll be fed only the finest Extraordinary Kibble there is

[tardy panther]

hi chat

[exotic mulch]

Yayyy. 1 more day of work then 2 days off to no life ark and fight brood mummy

Yessss

[silent matrix]

should i make a charcoal factory

[tardy panther]

Hate how having both the xbox and PlayStation roles makes you green, wish you could choose what colour you wanted

[silent matrix]

my 1 shitty campfire is making almost none

[tardy panther]

forgot this was the ark channel oops

[exotic mulch]

Industrial forge mass produces charcoal

[tardy panther]

yeah 1 charcoal per second iirc

I usually have a bunch of wood in there anyways

[slate widget]

discord doesn't work that way. all roles have to have an order and it chooses the highest role to give a color

[silent matrix]

i cant afford it

[tardy panther]

yeah I wish it did tho 💔💔

[exotic mulch]

Go our and farm for the resources then

Um what...

[tardy panther]

yeah it’s not too hard to get tbh

Probably custom drops

[exotic mulch]

Why do you need 40 tho?

[tardy panther]

yeah 40 seems a bit overkill 💀💀

I respect the grind though ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[exotic mulch]

I'm to tired to question it any further

[silent matrix]

no im making a shit ton of campfires and a lot of floors of campfires lined up next to each other

[tardy panther]

ooh my bad I assumed it was single player, that’s understandable then with that many in a tribe

[exotic mulch]

I honestly don't see the point of having so much

[tardy panther]

Big tribes require lots of materials

Bigger your base the more materials you’ll need to maintain

especially if you’ve got turrets

[silent matrix]

im making 152 campfires

for charcoal

[tardy panther]

Holy moly

[silent matrix]

how much does a refining forge even cost

[tardy panther]

Gunpowder

Bullets

[silent matrix]

yes

[tardy panther]

Tranquilliser darts

[silent matrix]

yes

[static fjord]

tranq darts arent worth it, use arrows.

[tardy panther]

cheaper sure but not better

[silent matrix]

why?

[tardy panther]

I guess it depends on your damage

[tardy panther]

I mean they are

[misty turtle]

Imagine use tranq arrow tame gigan

[exotic mulch]

Depends on the damage of your crossbow and long neck

[static fjord]

they are better, crossbows are faster in terms of reload and way less punishing when it comes to missing a shot. not to mention, tranq darts use more narcotic than tranq arrows than darts and the only pro is that they do less damage, which is not very useful with feeding corpses being a thing

[tardy panther]

yeah if you’ve got more damage on your crossbow, use arrows, other way round if you wanna use darts

[misty turtle]

More torpo and dont have to wait 5s

other way round, only if your longneck has more damage should you use it.

it kinda shows the flaws with tranq darts considering youre low on charcoal

[tardy panther]

Yeah that’s what I said

[misty turtle]

Charcoal so easy to get

[tardy panther]

If you have more damage on your bow use that, if you’ve got the other way round (higher damage on rifle) then use that

[static fjord]

ah alright i misunderstood
but primitive crossbow to primitive longneck, crossbows are better. doesnt help longnecks that crossbows have better dura too.

[misty turtle]

It not that hard to get gigan day 1 if you play official with big tribe anyway

[tardy panther]

I would agree

But late game, tranq darts are probably better tbh

But at the end of the day it really does depend on your weapon damage

[misty turtle]

You only need 1 big bear trap and 3 billboard to trap a gigan

[static fjord]

i could see that being a valid argument if you used shocking tranq darts, considering how cheap they are compared to their normal couterparts

[deep path]

Hey everyone! I’m new to server / ark in general. Does anyone know what’s the best channel for tips?

[misty turtle]

[bronze sluice]

Robo Raptor Squad marks down another win

[tardy panther]

They are better than normal darts too

[bronze sluice]

Dragon is down.

that's all three Island bosses taken down with Tek Raptors.

[static fjord]

yeah thats what im saying.

[full shore]

#bobs-with-probs

[silent matrix]

is an industrial forge expensive?

[bronze sluice]

no Yutys, no Rexes, no Megas, no Theris.

Next up: Overseer

[full shore]

Yes

[full shore]

Yeah

[silent matrix]

how expensive

[deep path]

Thanks!!

[tardy panther]

2500 metal

600 Crystal

600 or 400 cp and poly

I don’t remember

[velvet parrot]

Should the hunger thingy be grey

[tardy panther]

That means you can poop

[fair lodge]

What's the point of popping lol

[full shore]

2500 metal, 250 crystal, 600 cementing paste, 400 oil, 400 polymer

[static fjord]

also means your hunger bar is depleting faster than normal, pooping is advised.

[velvet parrot]

is that why i dont get hungry right now

[tardy panther]

ooh my bad, thought it was 600 Crystal

[tardy panther]

I think so

[static fjord]

as feet

[fair lodge]

Besides that

[tardy panther]

funni

[static fjord]

poop anyway because you deplete food faster at like, 30% rate

[velvet parrot]

Why do i get hungry so slowly

[silent matrix]

He said they did it in their first day, they could've played for 12 consecutive hours and progressed alot in that time

[wispy frigate]

i.e. the lift of a pvp’er

[static fjord]

perry

[silent matrix]

Makes sense lmao

Yeah, ark

Ouch

[wispy frigate]

Yeah?

[silent matrix]

We are ark players, of course we don't have lives

[static fjord]

your hovercraft is full of eels

[wispy frigate]

Its what

[static fjord]

check cryo server.

[silent matrix]

Are you even an ark player?

[slate widget]

hate it when that happens.

[silent matrix]

Figured

[placid sundial]

[slate widget]

everybody knows the lift of a pvp'er

[silent matrix]

I myself work 10 hour shifts 6 days a week and still play ark for 4+ hours daily lmfao

[placid sundial]

i was having 16 when breeding my tek rexes

[wispy frigate]

Oh right and eclipse

[placid sundial]

yep pvp and eclipse that is the two modes of Ark No Life

[wispy frigate]

No one here has a life
Ark has drawn you in and to the point of no return
ACCEPT IT

[wispy frigate]

There are two types of people in this world
Pvp and eclipse

How can you say no when you are already controlled by it

But like seriously
It doesn’t really matter

[placid sundial]

yes i will go and slave off more spawns

[placid sundial]

yes

[exotic mulch]

What is eclipse?

[tardy panther]

I mean 4 hours isn’t too bad

Every day yeah it’s pretty crazy

[wispy frigate]

The category of no life

[placid sundial]

i have 6150 since late 2018, and..
fucking hell, 53 days in the kit. how much of that is loading or cooking lmao

[static fjord]

i have a mere 50% of your playtime

[placid sundial]

doesnt count hours writing spawns with ini rather than mods tho

[exotic mulch]

Let's gooo. 999 hours on ark

[tardy panther]

I’ve got roughly 3200+ and I’ve been playing since launch on Xbox I think

[placid sundial]

👍

[tardy panther]

A couple months after launch on Xbox

[static fjord]

yeah same

[tardy panther]

I’ve got about 2700 on Xbox and 500+ on PlayStation

[static fjord]

you can check when you started by going into achievements and checking the first night achievement

[wispy frigate]

I have a mere 20% of your playtime

[placid sundial]

i mean most of my ingame time (aside from loading) I am doing something. the kit just takes about 20 years to load and 50 years to cook anything

[wispy frigate]

Ok maybe like 40%

[tardy panther]

Yeah but some of those days I played for about 12 hours plus

[static fjord]

a fractal personality designed to be your guide huh

[wispy frigate]

I’m confused

[static fjord]

i am hlna now.

[static fjord]

you know why? because there are eels in my hovercraft

[wispy frigate]

Ah so now you have eels in your hovercraft

[placid sundial]

lamprey hovercraft > eel hovercraft

[tardy panther]

That’s not that bad, I’ve seen people with a lot more in less time

[gray patio]

update, now the magmasaur is at 70% growth complete and it s HUGE

[wispy frigate]

Oh I was too late

[static fjord]

do not talk to me with that disabled bloodstalker attitude eclipse.

[tardy panther]

10K+ in like 3-4 years

[placid sundial]

it is most definitely possible.

[gray patio]

any idea on how to take it on my bronto's platform?

[silent matrix]

y'all know the charcoal factory i talked about

[wispy frigate]

Aberrant ones yes

[static fjord]

how to take it?

[silent matrix]

How do you check how many hours you got

it isnt really that big but i put 20k wood into it so yeah

and it melts you to death

of course

[wispy frigate]

@static fjord is it unhealthy to have 6k hours of playing a video game in 4 years

[stuck shadow]

Help my baby Spino needs to be hand-fed a superior kibble and I cand afford one

[exotic mulch]

Fun fact. Abberation is littered with spinos

[static fjord]

let me see

[tardy panther]

should check the Reddit and see how many hours people have in such little time honestly

[placid sundial]

no, im perfectly healthy except i like making spawns

[wispy frigate]

Will your killer t cells start dying or something

[tardy panther]

some people have like 10k+

[tough yarrow]

If you have a cryopod, you can use it to change the imprint.

[static fjord]

nope, thats 62 days of straight ark per year, seems like a healthy amount.

[tardy panther]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

god damn

[placid sundial]

hey, light burns my fragile vampiric skin

[tardy panther]

I mean some people do ark kinda as a job, they sell eggs for money

[static fjord]

pretty sure shes already medically classified as deceased.

[wispy frigate]

And it leaves a full 303 days for “extras” like sleeping and jobs

[static fjord]

yeah.

and cooking slamon

[placid sundial]

no im fine spawns are fine

[placid sundial]

YES YES

[tardy panther]

Pretty sure it’s illegal but yeah people do it

[static fjord]

to be fair at least half the playtime of the average ark player is afking. whether thats for waiting on an imprint or what have you.

[stuck shadow]

Guys how to walk the baby dino ?

[tough yarrow]

Plenty care, don't endorse rmt please.

[tough yarrow]

Enable following by pressing T while looking at the dino.

[stuck shadow]

My T is Chat

[tough yarrow]

You can enable it through the radial menu as well

There's a #reporting-players for it.

[stuck shadow]

How ?

[wispy frigate]

Wc fully support lgbtq+

[tough yarrow]

Plenty do.

[wispy frigate]

I’m… not sure what you mean by that

[tough yarrow]

No. It's not. Basic human rights is nothing at all like rmt.

Yeah you can move on from the topic then.

[tough yarrow]

Hold "e" on the dino and use the radial menu

[fervent fjord]

Guys if you're planning on getting Mjolnir it really isn't worth it

[tough yarrow]

Not really no

Well on solo worlds

[stuck shadow]

OK great thanks

[placid sundial]

It's nice to get if you're achievement/trophy hunting tbf

[fervent fjord]

I got it it wasn't worth the trouble

[placid sundial]

But useful, is another story

[stuck shadow]

Hey um how does the Dimetrodon help incubating the egg ?

[fervent fjord]

It's more a flex than anything

[placid sundial]

I mean I'm getting all the explorer notes just because

I also want to see the art though

[slate widget]

by existing. it incubates them like an air con. increase melee for better incubation.

[tough yarrow]

It's pretty

[fervent fjord]

The flex of ascending every map getting all two hundred runes and all of the notes to be able to use it
