[mint shell]

I think it's physically impossible to ride a dodo

ohh

I can whistle to make it passive?

[stuck shadow]

No prob mate.

[static fjord]

dodos dont do any torpor.

[stuck shadow]

so uhh all Wyvern give 5 milk bottles on knock out right ?

[cedar breach]

only female

[mint shell]

bruh why is everywhere too close to any enemy foundation or gate

there are pillars everywhere

[static fjord]

competitive servers just be like that

[mint shell]

it's PVE tho what's the point?

[coarse smelt]

does the mindwipe tonic work on tames?

[robust grail]

We have a rollback method to report @silent matrix - what's the best way to report it?

[torn pier]

Official pve is like jigsaw

Come up with complex ways to kill people without directly doing so

[ripe spruce]

Does a child in ark 2 trailer imply there's story mode with NPCs? I don't think you'll be able to play as a child and it's in the trailer for some reason so it could be story mode.

[sweet acorn]

Hi people

[brisk flint]

Actually... given mods will now be on console this means mods will be curated for ark2...

[cedar breach]

Can somebody tell me why is mate boost on alpha creatures a thing

[brisk flint]

Because the Ark hates your guts

[static fjord]

suffering.

[brisk flint]

Or rather loves seeing them fly around?

Both work.

[static fjord]

you should go give the local overseer a piece of your mind, if your map has a beatable one.

[exotic mulch]

Stupid robot

[glossy sierra]

so i tryna makin my base more wider but i dont wanna make so many gateways cuz it took lots of materials, is there any alternatives for it

[static fjord]

why gateways?

[sour fog]

Is it ideal to knock out a baryonyx from a griffin? Any dinos in the swamp that will try to kill the bary once knocked out?

[cedar breach]

i always used a trap outside the swamp so im not sure but i wuldnt knock it out in the swamp

[exotic folio]

Who wants to help me tame a snow owl just to move to the island

[static fjord]

nothing will attack a bary in a swamp but its still ideal to use a trap for when it starts torpor running.

[fervent herald]

Nooo

[exotic folio]

I got 2 alpha raptors near red obelisk Idk the genders

[sour fog]

Griffins are fast enough to pursue down a bary right?

I'm good as long as no swamp creatures try to attack the bary while its knocked out

[static fjord]

probably, but have fun trying to aim on the back of a griffin.

[sour fog]

Is it that hard?

[static fjord]

aiming on anything moving is cancer, especially flying

[sour fog]

Oh lol

[static fjord]

the bary might also attack a dino itself.

[glossy sierra]

is there any other alternatives?

[static fjord]

for what, making a perimeter around an area to block off dinos entering your base?

[glossy sierra]

yeah

[cedar breach]

just got 234 flak boots bp

[static fjord]

metal spike walls

[solemn cipher]

Is there any way to change the gender of the creature you are spawning with a command'

Like to set the desired gender

[static fjord]

dont think so

[fresh field]

how do you "farm" spoiled meat

scorched earth if that makes a difference

[mellow bolt]

The best option would be to tame a desmodus and transfer it to scorched

[mellow bolt]

They harvest spoiled meat

[fresh field]

how do you transfer dinos

and where do i get this demodus

and what does it even look like

[mellow bolt]

You know the new map, fjordur?

Desmodus spawn there, they are basically giant rideable bats

[fresh field]

no, i havent played since like 2020

[mellow bolt]

To transfer dinos, you have to go to an obelisk and go to the dinos tab, select your dino, and upload it

[mellow bolt]

They're tamed like a bloodstalker

[fresh field]

whats a bloodstalker?

[mellow bolt]

Oh boy

Uhhhh

A bloodstalker is a giant spider

[strange moth]

Why when I create my host/local game in Fjordur can't I use flyers when entering the portal room and also when going to the other map, like asgard?

[static fjord]

you gotta let it pick you up while you have bloodpacks in your inventory. every 10 bloodpacks, it'll drop you. rinse and repeat.
by default it has 50% taming effectiveness, you need to let it pick up (not kill) tamed dinos. if your dino has bloodpacks in its inventory, it wont take any damage

[static fjord]

theyre technically caves, so flyers dont work

[mellow bolt]

You tame it by letting it reel you in and drink bloodpacks in your inventory

[bold fog]

How much metal is 2 tek dedi boxes worth in pve?

[strange moth]

Theres a way to able it?

[bold fog]

Iron*

[static fjord]

if you mean how much metal fits in 2 tek dedicated storage boxes, thats 108000 metal.

[bold fog]

No like how much would I have to give someone for 2

[static fjord]

that varies.

[mellow bolt]

Depends on the person tbh

[fresh field]

whats a good narcoberry farmer on scorched earth?

[bold fog]

Oh is 1300 enough for most or?

[static fjord]

morrelatops

1300 what

[bold fog]

Iron

[sour fog]

Anyone know how to backup a world on ark ps4?

[bold fog]

Metal whatever it’s called when smelted

[static fjord]

you cant

[sour fog]

Oh. I'm kinda scared to lose my dinos stats when transfering via cryopods

[mellow bolt]

Morrelatops is a good farmer for any berry

[static fjord]

crashing during transferring is very bad. always use saveworld before and after you upload and download something

[sour fog]

Whats the command for it?

[static fjord]

saveworld

[wispy frigate]

Are you on non dedicated? If so, don’t transfer
If you aren’t it’s completely safe

[sour fog]

Whats non dedicated mean?

[sour fog]

Oh ok thanks

[static fjord]

servers that run only when the host is online

you can see it as an option under play singleplayer

with non dedi, cryopod and egg data get deleted when you transfer which makes it unsafe.

[subtle pond]

Cluster?

[granite python]

sombody wanna play?

[placid sundial]

A bunch of servers connected together

[sour fog]

I play singleplayer

[static fjord]

then youre safe.

[sour fog]

Phew tysm

[static fjord]

just do the saveworlds and you'll be fine.

[sour fog]

Save worlds right before I load my stuff into the obelisks right?

[subtle pond]

Aaaa yeah no I just have a server we made with my friends and I wanted to get a blood wyvern from crystal isle

[static fjord]

saveworld after you put stuff in the obelisk, saveworld after you download them. directly after.

[sour fog]

Oh ok thanks

[silent matrix]

is anyone good at deciphering crash logs for modded sp games?

[fervent herald]

Bloodstalkers have been here long

[fresh field]

why cant i pick up my shit? i wanna fertilize my crops

[strange moth]

how to able flyers in caves?

[cedar breach]

is 900 metal for a 174 longneck worth it?

[ember grove]

Fjordur is still broken lol

[old nimbus]

There’s a setting in the starting menu if you’re on single player

‘Enable flyers in caves’ or something like that

[dark idol]

If server ping hits 180-200 for any extended length of time it breaks spawns. They will not respawn until the ping is 120 or lower for at least 40-45 min.

[ember grove]

Yeah sucks that it's like that though.

[dark idol]

Yea, It shouldn't be tbh. Probably need to get this in front of Cedric, Dollie, and possibly Jat.

[sour fog]

What tool harvests organic polymer from penguins the best?

[strange moth]

and if iam playing with my friend hostlocal?

[tardy panther]

Sword or chainsaw I think

I don’t recall

[sour fog]

Oh ok thanks

Also will moschops harvest baby penguins when set on aggressive?

[tardy panther]

don’t think so

They usually just run away

Your better off using a theri im pretty sure

[stone rock]

Im pretty sure chainsaw is the best tool for organic polymer

[pliant locust]

Tool yes, but good moschops get way more, tested it couple times with a 220+ dmg chainsaw vs my 253 pts and leveld in poly moschops

[normal atlas]

anyone wanna play rag with me i already have stuff on the server?

[sour fog]

Do I need acs to incubate kairuku eggs? I saw somewhere that they incubate their own eggs

[analog crane]

Do wild eggs count as wild dinos for breeding purposes?

[dense bramble]

GUYS i need help i cant join server official pve 1176 steam fjrudur keeps telling me my game crashed like Assertion thingy or smth pls help if you guys can

[neon rampart]

what are you talking about

[inland jay]

how do i use the asgard portal need fungalwood

[neon rampart]

you can get fungal wood underwater

[inland jay]

na dont wanna

also wanna ta.e shdow mane

[neon rampart]

then go to the portal and click on it.

[inland jay]

i am but nothin happening

[neon rampart]

have you tried pressing it

[inland jay]

Yes im press a

i see a thing called generate asgard portal but im pressing a on it nothin hapoening

[carmine condor]

do otters incubate eggs?

[gloomy fox]

yes

[carmine condor]

how many do i need for wyvern/ deinonychus eggs?

[static fjord]

depends on the ambient temperature and otter melee

[gloomy fox]

idk but when i was incubating deino i used ± 15 torch

[carmine condor]

4 deegres celsius

on fjordur

[static fjord]

youre going to need a lot then. wyvern eggs need 85c temp.

[carmine condor]

i know i incubated my deinonychus eggs on the lave isle with campfires

[static fjord]

i'd say just make a circle of standing torches and put your egg in the middle. otters would be inconvenient

[carmine condor]

ok

[carmine palm]

idk what wildcard did to my server but thank you fr

from 255 to 80 ping with the same amount of player

[minor glen]

why does everythign die on me instead of get tranqed ever since i upgraded crossbow? does upgraded crossbow do more damage only and not more torpor?

can u check #bobs-with-probs

im playing a hardcore modpack that makes everything underlevelled and so it becomes hard to tame anything with a journeyman crossbow because they die instantly

i think this is where the modpack gets unbalanced because i can hardly tame anything

they all die because theyre so low level XD

the only way to tame is to throw bait using immersive taming and wait till wild babies get it XD thats the only way ive got tames either that or steal from nests

so i have an army of level 1's

the mod is super hardcore

i am probably gonna stay with leather and crossbows for an eternity at best

i dont think ill even unlcok darts XD

do u know of settings i can edit in singleplayer

to fix this

like increase wild dino healing by a thousand

is that a setting

hmm, yes i do feel veryyyyyyyyyy overpowered with that crossbow it almost breaks the whole purpsoe of it

[autumn eagle]

are ichthyornises herbivores or carnicores

[minor glen]

no matter what situation i always know i can 3 shot anything i see XD

[minor glen]

i imagine both because they steal ur berries and fish too

[autumn eagle]

ok what about mantas

[minor glen]

i should not have got that crossbow it ruisn the game for me lmao

way too safe for what this mod is meant to be

[autumn eagle]

k

[rich root]

Anyone know why my cave loot crates take ages to spawn?? Im on single player btw

[minor glen]

i think increasing healing rate for wild dinos is better so that when i actualy run into high level dinos it doesnt become a pain to kill them because all dinos are like super enhanced even if theyre low level

[rich root]

Whats the setting?

[minor glen]

so that when i want to tame something i just wait in intervals and when i want to kill something i do it fast

where that setting is located and by how much i should increase it is the question

[rich root]

Alright

[safe aurora]

I got my first shadowmane yesterday and I think it has changed my life

I love this thing

Yeah they really are even my shitty like lvl 60 does great dmg

Yeah I'm currently running around the river just going nuts

Don't even know what to do with all this meat lol

[ancient storm]

Hey guys quick question, is there a way to make a specific dino have infinite weight?

what mods

That's why i'm asking here, i've been looking for a hour or so

[silent matrix]

do i have to install ark again if i got it on steam but want to purchase it on xbox aswell?

[strange zealot]

Why would you waste the money twice on the same platform?

If you got it on pc and then got an Xbox then yes you’ll have to install it on the Xbox

[amber star]

Rock drake or wyvern

Ok

[obtuse wyvern]

when do transfers into fjordur open on xbox

[inner karma]

Hey guys I’m wondering if I could transfer stuff from a official PVE server to a single player server as they are now working for me

[static fjord]

no

[inner karma]

Oh.

Ok thank you for answering my question

Then could I transfer to an unofficial server?

[static fjord]

no

[inner karma]

Ok

Thank you

[static fjord]

every map is the tutorial mode when you compare it to gen 1.

[obtuse wyvern]

gen 2 is beyond tutorial mode

a blind toddler could play it

[light sparrow]

Why is the camera/Tame group wheel broken there's no other way to toggle camera views there is a way to do tame groups in the inventory though

[static fjord]

gen 2 is when you arent even playing the game, just being spoonfed things.

[brisk gale]

Does anyone know if overcapping a replicator is a thing? I was mass crafting flak, qued up 300 gauntlets. When I came back the blueprint disappeared along with like 100 gauntlets...

[static fjord]

did you run out of resources

[inland jay]

how many fish should i brong to tame a shadowmane

i got 6 fish barrel

uh the fish a level 26 and yes i think

[light dome]

What is the “Base Multi-Item”

[inland jay]

only got the one fish rn uh im waoting for daytime

[pliant locust]

Level of fish doesn’t matter, size does 😉

I’m slow 😦

Must be the beer 😝

[inland jay]

fish i just got pretty good size

[pliant locust]

Take 2.0+ only if you can, 1.5x might work too but it’s not really ideal

[inland jay]

sabertooth salmon

0.8x

[pliant locust]

Ouch

[inland jay]

whut not good?

what bait do i need for the fishing pole

[royal talon]

Would a juvenile dino eat faster if there were more than 1 feeding trough near it?

[pliant locust]

Depends on your taming speed but that’s pretty tiny.
2+ is kinda rare, but 1.5 up is rather common iirc

[inland jay]

oh well ima do shit tons of fishing

[pliant locust]

Juve can eat from troughs tho 🙂
But yea adding more is just more buffer, they won’t eat more / faster

[light dome]

What is the base multi-item?

[royal talon]

Yeah, that's why I asked about juvenile dino's. they can feed themselves, but their consumption doesn't seem to keep up with what they need to survive.

[inland jay]

im on a pond that has 2 watee falls that leadinto a nioce size lake that i know has fish

im always getting eaten by a dam man eating fish everytime i walk through this little uh trench thinging

[pliant locust]

If you raise like gigas, quetz, brontos etc you will be looking at couple of Tek troughs filled to the brim on x1 to fully mature them

[royal talon]

So I need a Tek Trough for them to eat enough to survive? A normal Trough won't do it?

[pliant locust]

Na any trough, Tek troughs are refrigerated and have 100 slots, I like using them as reference therefore as spoilage is not such a big factor and 100 slots is a nicer number than 45 or whatever the normal troughs can hold

Non adult Dinos eat a ton, that’s the key takeaway I gues s

[royal talon]

Hmm, well, apparently, according to a friend, normal troughs aren't enough to keep Feed a juvenile without it dying eventualy from hunger. >.>

[pliant locust]

Depends on what you raise, how many of it, and with what multipliers

[royal talon]

Nani?

What?*

[pliant locust]

A trough of raw meat for example will hardly sustain a giga from one stage to another ^^

[royal talon]

Even if you keep refilling it?

[pliant locust]

Then yes

[royal talon]

So, as long as the trough is full, they will eat enough to live?

[pliant locust]

As long as there is any consumable food in either their inventory, and/or a trough in range, a Dino with 10%+ maturation will eat from it and survive.
Only edgy cases might be wyverns that have 0 points into food as their max food might be too low for milk, and it requires force feeding, but everything else should work / survive

[silent matrix]

what is a good map for primal fear

[autumn knoll]

Hey can anyone help me with a new server to get it started? Trying to figure out how to do the mods (modded drops, element to compass)

[fickle lake]

can someone pls tell me if you can take dinos in rockwells inards?

[static fjord]

you can but most are ill-advised

[empty hollow]

Any1 knows what the cap of ppl in a tribe is in beginner servers

Pls tell me if u know

@tough kindle tribe cap on beginner servers?

[light dome]

What is the base multi-item?

[coral plover]

Ark Russian-Ukranian player

[stuck shadow]

Guys help

There's a ice Wyvern just spawn at a location on my map

I went there and searched for like 15 mins but the nest is nowhere to be found

[empty hollow]

Is the beginner servers still a 5 man?

[silent matrix]

what is a good map for primal fear, or what would you guys say is the most fun map for primal fear.

[bitter ore]

wyverns got this fun feature where they can freely be at any place without close proximity to nest

the nest can be at the end of the world and they still will be there

[stuck shadow]

But this one has just spawn in

[bitter ore]

yeah wyverns don't obey any laws besides gravity

[stuck shadow]

I don't think she's able to travel somewhere far

[bitter ore]

oh trust me they can

[stuck shadow]

Hey um can I ride a fire wyvern and gain cold resistance when traveling through the death snow zone ?

[obtuse wyvern]

dont think so

[summer lava]

does fenrir boss drop engrams?

[bitter ore]

well i gotta say that ark spawns are the best

spino at the easy spawn

[static fjord]

spinos share the same spawns as fish in most locations, hence why you can find them in your local river

[broken cloud]

i think fenrirsulfur or whatever he’s called only gives the tek sword

[summer lava]

engram or skin

[broken cloud]

engram. on alpha it gives the mjolnir skin too

[pliant lodge]

Dmg

[bitter ore]

i have been looking at dododex in name ideas for thylacoleos and the best one gotta be "Vietnam flashbacks" lmao

[light dome]

Is anyone else struggling with the nameless venom rocks on fjordur not respawning in the aberration cave? So far every other resource has returned except that

[spare canyon]

is Island coming back up for arkpoc, Why they takin down servers?

[royal talon]

is there a way to partially disable the Hud? I want the hotbar, crosshair, and status markes to be visible, but not all the names and such of everything I look at. I can't read signs and such when I make them! D:

[static fjord]

you can toggle tame names.

[royal talon]

what about names of structure blocks and such?

[static fjord]

i dont think so unless you disable the entire hud

[royal talon]

how do I toggle tame names?

not seeing a keybind or setting for that.

floating names

got it. 😄

[light dome]

If you go to options and then your advanced settings you can toggle floating names which I think is what you’re looking for

[royal talon]

is there no ini option or mod or something that can be tweaked / installed to remove block names when looking at them?

[static fjord]

its a settings in a wheel too but idk how to toggle that on pc.

[final sapphire]

Tfw you die to some pulmoscorpius in the easiest spawn

[calm aurora]

...

[gentle summit]

anyone can help me in gen2 gamma boss?

[mint shell]

guys there are too many options when starting a single player, do I just keep them like they are?

[static fjord]

are you playing for the first time or a new player?

[plush sonnet]

at least change the max dino lvl to 150

everything else id leave alone i think

[static fjord]

maturation rates.

[mint shell]

i've started today on a PVE server and I am just sick of pillars everywhere so I'll play single player

[static fjord]

i recommend just playing the game like normal and you can tweak anything as you progress

[plush sonnet]

oh didn't realize you could change rates on single player

[static fjord]

breeding will take years on 1x but you can see for yourself how slow it is and how fast you want it to be

[plush oar]

@mint shell pillers is only problem on official laggy server

try unofficial much better experience overall

[mint shell]

Can I play single player offline?

[static fjord]

yes

i recommend playing singleplayer anyway just to learn the game

[mint shell]

I don't see a reason to play online PVE like I am not even interacting with anyone lol

can I make a friend join my singleplayer save later tho?

[static fjord]

yea

definitely non dedicated, not sure about other options.

[white cypress]

Maybe THIS patch will help with spawns? lol 😄

[tawny bay]

When are the servers getting up?

[white cypress]

some are starting to pop up now

[candid forum]

hello people, what happened to the GIGA discord ? did it disapear or did they change their name ?

[mint shell]

so when I host a non-dedicated session I can't play the save offline ?

[static fjord]

multiplayer always requires being online

[worn geode]

They changed their name to "Ark Community Evolved"

[mint shell]

so I can choose to play my save offline or online basically by clicking Play single player or host non-dedicated session?

[autumn eagle]

my icthyosaurus is stuck on land how do i get in the water ;-;

[static fjord]

the former is well, singleplayer. the latter hosts the game on your pc and players can join, granted with tether.

[autumn eagle]

help ;-;

[static fjord]

cryopods

[mint shell]

What is tether sorry?

[static fjord]

its this big bubble around the host where if anyone tries to exit it, they get bounced back to the host. entering caves forces players to tp to host.

[mint shell]

bruh so you can't just play it normally like a multiplayer server

there has to be some random shananigans

[static fjord]

its the only free option.

dedicated either requires a good pc or you can pay for a third party to host it for you, tons of them exist.

[mint shell]

dedicated server is that your pc becomes the server?

[static fjord]

yes.

host cant play unless they have a strong enough pc.

tether exists to stop you from overprocessing your pc.

[mint shell]

ahaa so they can't actually explore anything too far for my pc to processs

tether thing

[pearl hawk]

ghillie suit good for pve on scorched earth?

[charred river]

Giga next to base what do

Am scare

[pearl hawk]

commands slomo 0.1, kill

[plush sonnet]

cryopod, craft it in an obelisk or lootdrop

[autumn eagle]

its aight i got a new one

[plush sonnet]

rip ichthy

[ivory cradle]

why did the servers go down

[mint shell]

does it actually take 12 hours to tame some of the dinos?

[static fjord]

maybe some but i doubt anything goes that high

back in the day though taming speeds were horrendous.

[mint shell]

the official server taming speed is set to 1 right?

[static fjord]

yea

i recommen 2-4x

[regal yarrow]

No it doesn't. You need kibble for most decent tames though

[bitter ore]

i mean if you use the worst taming food then yes

and also if you set the taming speed to 0.000001

[pearl hawk]

imo anything over 20 minutes to tame is pretty ridiculous from a game design standpoint (except maybe for pvp servers idk)

[static fjord]

How is 20 minutes ridiculous

[bitter ore]

how is that ridiculous

[pearl hawk]

because you are just sitting there doing nothing on the chance that something comes to attack the unconscious creature.

[bitter ore]

then defend it

place some spikes and shoot down anything that comes near it

[regal yarrow]

Put spikes around it and just leave it lol

[static fjord]

throw around some spike walls or if the dino is an apex, next to nothing will attack it to begin with.

[regal yarrow]

If it's not a giga or a theri you really don't need to stick around, unless it's a pvp server jaja

[bitter ore]

i mean there will always be some annoying dilo that will attack it

[static fjord]

any apex works, or just big carnivore. karkinos, spinos, rexes, megalos and the list goes on. the latter might get attacked but if you make sure nothing is already aggro'd youre fine.

[silent matrix]

Lets say there is a noglin on 5x taming speed, how many carbonemys would i need?

[static fjord]

the same as 1x.

you need 5 non-bred high level brontos or voidwyrms. anything else will kill the taming effectiveness.

[plush sonnet]

why non-bred

[static fjord]

bred dinos dont work for whatever reason, dont ask me, ask the noglins.

cloned do work though.

health doesnt correspond to taming affinity. you can have a bronto with 1000 max health and it'd still work as long as it met the requirements i already mentioned above.

[old vault]

Anyone have a server to buy tamed?

[static fjord]

dinos arent killed in the process either unless they werent full health when they got mindcontrolled. once a bronto/voidwyrm is done, whistle it away from the noglin and cryopod it. make sure you do not aggro the noglin because it'll get stuck on you and require you to tranq it and reset the tame.

[silent matrix]

Yeah, so nooblets did it without bronto/voidwyvern, but with carbonemys. Why cant i do that?

[static fjord]

look at the noglins taming effectiveness in the video, skyrocketed down as soon as it went to the 6th carbonemys

[elfin rune]

How many air conditioners would you need for a decent egg hatching area, I’m trying to make on but idk if I should go with like 3 or 5

Or higher if necessary

[static fjord]

i'd say around 8

[bitter ore]

just place as much as you can fit and afford

[icy yew]

Whats better for boss battles, rexes or theris?

[static fjord]

theris

[icy yew]

And why

[bitter ore]

i don't think it matters if you got 20 or 5 acs

[static fjord]

veggie cakes.

[icy yew]

Oh ok and theris do more damage right

[static fjord]

no, but the difference in damage is negligible.

[icy yew]

what about health

[static fjord]

theris have lower health but higher effective health because of veggie cakes.

[silent matrix]

Alr, ty

[icy yew]

Do you need to feed the veggie cake to them yourself or do they just eat it

[static fjord]

theris heal up to 2.1k hp per veggie cakes, which is pretty insane.

they eat it themself when theyre under 90% hp

[glass furnace]

does anyone know how to fix "the ue4 shootergame game has crashed and will close ark"

[icy yew]

Alright

[static fjord]

which is why your theris should have 21k hp, any higher or lower is worse

[elfin rune]

Ah alright, is there anything else I’d need for an egg hatching area, or is air conditioners it?

[static fjord]

a trough?

btw, dimetrodons are basically organic, moveable acs, you should get one if you have the chance

[icy yew]

so is the health healed determined by the amount of health the theri has?

[wispy frigate]

Heals 10% but caps at 2.1k

[static fjord]

yes, but it caps at 10%

what perry said. i combined both facts into 1 lol

[elfin rune]

Ah alright I’ll look for one, thank you

[silent matrix]

Soo, taming speed does not apply to passive tames?

[wispy frigate]

Honestly I can’t remember if it heals 10% and caps at 2.1k or heals 2.1k but caps at 10%

[static fjord]

No, noglins are special.

back in my day taming speed didnt effect bloodstalkers as a bug.

[bitter ore]

the higher damage it got the more effective ac it makes it

[flint whale]

How much health on shadowmanes to do alpha broodmother on official pve?

Like bare minimum to do it with, I have no op dinos.

[lament sinew]

Suche mate dm me!

[static fjord]

Hypothetically you wont need any hp if you bring a yuty or another bigger creature

[cedar breach]

is there anything i shuld level on ovises?

[static fjord]

hp, hp corresponds to amount of mutton

[flint whale]

They have base health of 9500, will that be enough?

[static fjord]

if you bring a yuty yes.

bosses target the biggest creature which means if youre riding a yuty and stay back, broodmother wont attack your shadowmanes while your shadowmanes will block it from reaching the yuty. ive done this myself on alpha broodmother.

[flint whale]

Yuti has 26k health, will that be enough?

[static fjord]

yes, it wont get hit.

[flint whale]

Well, true.

Can this same be applied to monkey?

[static fjord]

yes.

it can work on dragon and manticore too but its a little harder since they fly.

[flint whale]

Damn. So all 42 points on damage for manes? :D

Feels risky but I'll do it.

[static fjord]

yep.

had 20k hp and 900% melee shadowmanes for alpha broodmother with a yuty. i dont think any lost more than like 1k hp from the araneos

[flint whale]

I am doing the bosses in Fjordur, so gotta do with what I have.

[static fjord]

this same method works with megalosaurus and deinonychus too

[flint whale]

I've never dared to consider megas, too afraid they wanna take a nap.

[static fjord]

ive seen people do alpha dragon as soon as it hits night with megalos. they ripped it to shreds pretty easily

[flint whale]

I have done all bosses with Deinos before, but somehow I am having the worst luck with Deinos in Fjordur.

Yeah, it's pretty sick how strong megas are at nighttime.

I've been ripped to shreds by one :D

[cedar breach]

how often do cave drops respawn

[static sand]

guys I am breeding for the broodmother boss

and Im aware the breeding pair has to be the same level

but each baby pops out the wild female with a diferent level, is this normal?

[flint whale]

It's about the stats they get.

[static sand]

what do you mean

[cedar breach]

best tool for harvesting mutton?

[bitter ore]

well i just got mastercraft wooden shield lol

[static fjord]

are both the parents stats the exact same

[static sand]

no

[static fjord]

theres your issue then.

[static sand]

cuz I found them in the wild

[static sand]

what

then I need to get to of the same stats in the wild?

[static fjord]

you need to breed that breeding pair until you get a breeding pair of the exact same stats and level

No

[static sand]

but I dont have a breeding pair

I found those two in the wild

[static fjord]

yes

[static sand]

these 2*

[static fjord]

you use those 2 in the wild to create a breeding pair that has the exact same stats and level.

and then you can use that to mutate

[static sand]

so I just breed them until I get two of same level and stats?

[static fjord]

yes

make sure they get the good stat too. look at which of the 2 wild parents have the good melee and hp and make sure that the breeding pair has the exact same stats, level and has all of the good stats

[cedar breach]

wuldnt it be better to get the best possible stats on both

[static sand]

yeah, im fighting on easy

so like, someone told me it doesnt need to much crazy stats

[static fjord]

alpha broodmother?

[static sand]

no

easy broodmother

[static fjord]

ok good luck.

[static sand]

thx

wait

[empty violet]

Is steam down?

[static sand]

I have 5624 HP and 357 melee. you rekin thats ok?@static fjord

[static fjord]

after leveling and imprint?

[static sand]

uhhh

no i didnt imprint yet

netheir level

[static fjord]

are those the stats directly after the baby pops out

[static sand]

no I will have these stats on the perfect pair

im only on stage one, im breeding the wild ones so I can get the perfect pair

[static fjord]

idk, i dont do gamma bossfights. broodmother is a hard boss, wouldnt risk it and i'd get more hp.

[static sand]

10k?

[static fjord]

as i said, idk. use whatever you think fits the bill.

[static sand]

ok

thanks

[magic leaf]

Does anyone know where I could find a group for ARK: Survival of the Fittest

Because I dont see a discord server for it and recruitment here is for Survival Evolved

[tough yarrow]

Recruitment here is for any and all ark stuff. SotF is included.

[bitter ore]

well turns out in my river lives a manta

[inland jay]

i need gasolime for generator right

[bitter ore]

yes

[inland jay]

which better generstor or wind turbine

[bitter ore]

man why is there 5 mantas in mah river!

what is that shit

[inland jay]

why u complaninf i got 4 spino in mah river 😒

[bitter ore]

they all are level 120

[inland jay]

i am currently staying inside my cabin

[bitter ore]

i don't have one

i only have 1 thatch foundation

[inland jay]

:]

i got me a nioce cozy cabin goimg :]

breh the indi grill provide good amount of light

[bitter ore]

ye

[carmine condor]

is it a good idea to kill the rock drakes and steal their eggs with rexes and spinos?

[inland jay]

idk how i done this but i manage to build a cozy cabin with room for fab a big ass indi grill and room for 4 preservering bens :]

[bitter ore]

i can't build good

[inland jay]

that is small

[bitter ore]

i mean my foundation has, smithy, forge, bed, mortar, cooking pot and campfire

[inland jay]

this my first time playing legit to :]

[bitter ore]

it is my second save file that i actually got anything interesting

[inland jay]

think ima know where to lut my ac air conditioner :]

where's a good fishing spot on fjordur

that give good taming speed for shadow manes

[grand plover]

What are the best imprint and maturity settings? On default (all properties = 1) it seems a raptor gets to fully grown before it's even asked for it's first imprinting care, which makes 0 sense

[bitter ore]

had the same thing when mass breeding thylas

[sour fog]

Anyone know how to get the max amount of points into a singular stat on the ‘harvesting levels’?

[inland jay]

1.3x sabertooth good or bad?

[sour fog]

When I mean harvesting lvls it’s those extra lvls you get that you can get on a therizino that improve its gentle chopping and stuff

[inland jay]

can i kill a fish and pick it up feed to to a shadowmane?

[sour fog]

I thought you needed fish baskets

[robust badge]

So the Fenrisúlfr boss on my server isn't giving the Fenrir now. Element and the Trophy are there but no Fenrir...

[queen robin]

anyone down to do survive the ark beta

[flint whale]

Damn, it worked. Alpha spider dead!

Almost lost a couple manes, so next time might take a few tank rexes.

[light dome]

What does it mean when my jerboa growls and pins his ears?

[exotic mulch]

It should do that. Should take a minute or 2 of this

[half widget]

is it me or do the dodos in ark make the same sound as one of the turkey sounds in rdr2

[bitter ore]

i think sandstorm is coming

or heat wave

[light dome]

But I’m on fjordur. I spawned it in for fun but he won’t stop growling lol

[bitter ore]

then idk

[light dome]

He’ll make a worthy tribute to the magmasaurs

[bitter ore]

gotta play fjordur once the transfers come

hm

[light dome]

It’s super fun and IMO seems like one of the most diverse maps in terms of spawns and biomes

[bitter ore]

huh

lemme check if i got space for it

ah yes lost island is 66 gigs and fjordur is barely 33 gigs

[light dome]

Nice. Yeah I really recommend it because of the map and spawns and also the new fjordur exclusive creatures are nice

[bitter ore]

and i heard there are most dlc exclusive dinos

[sour fog]

How rare is a lvl 150 moschops on ragnorak?

[high mango]

anyone know where to find deinonychus saddles on fjordur?

[late nexus]

hey, how strong are the island bosses? what should be prepared to fight them and what to expect, as in would it be a dungeon sort of thing where the boss is at the end or is it just a big boss room etc? we've just started this game a few weeks ago with a friend and have 300ish hours and are playing a private server and don't wanna spoil much boss fight wise, just wanna know what to prepare

[wispy frigate]

If you’re going in blind, I’d be very surprised if you didn’t lose
They’re in a large area, sometimes covered and sometimes not

Its hard to say more without knowing how much you don’t want spoiled

[late nexus]

oh then i guess it's fine to be spoiled lol, i just remember when i first joined this server i saw someone talking about rexes with 40k health or something and was shocked and we started wondering what's needed for the bosses, do the rewards etc change if you fight the harder ones?

[wispy frigate]

Yeah you get more rewards for alpha than the others
Gamma is easiest, beta is medium, alpha is hardest

For the first time, I’d use rexes with 30-40k health and 1200%+ melee
You can do with much less on most of the bosses but those stats ensure you won’t lose any

If you’re playing a private server, its gonna take a long time to get those stats mutated

[late nexus]

how many of those rexes would be needed?

we have most of the breeding times etc halved or even lower because we just wanted cool colored pets ETC during this event

(mostly also because server's stopped after every session so we don't have it running 24/7

[wispy frigate]

Ideally 19 rexes and a yuty that someone rides

There are other options to cheese some of the bosses tho

[late nexus]

oh jesus

[swift cedar]

im new to the game can anyone show me how to play

[late nexus]

what would the cheese options be and what are the rewards from the bosses anyway?

[high mango]

cheese options would be megatheriums and a yuty for broodmother, and therizinos, a daeodon, and a yuty for dragon

rewards are essentially element and tek engrams unlocked

[late nexus]

how much would we be missing if we didn't do the bosses, we know that there's the tek cave but no clue what's in there

[high mango]

tek cave has the overseer, which is like the main boss on the island

[late nexus]

guessing it's even harder?

[high mango]

yup

you actually have to guide your army of dinos through the tek cave which has some strong creatures, just to get to the boss fight

[late nexus]

oh damn this all sounds like weeks and weeks of work lol

[high mango]

itll be more than weeks depending on your server settings lol

mutating the dinos is gonna take a while

not really gonna be very possible to beat the alpha bosses without mutated/well-saddled dinos

but if this is your first time playing ark, i'd just take it slow, play the game how you wanna play, enjoy the small things in the game, and progress in your own time. if you just start rushing bosses right from the get-go, you won't have fun for very long imo

[late nexus]

well then i guess when changing maps (we're just planning to play fjordur after this, unless it's somehow spesific what should be played for better experience, not too in to the lore and all that with a friend just love the creatures and exploring the island, leveling up ETC.) but are you supposed to continue with your character and dinos since you can upload them or start over with nothing + new character? (and i read that it may be risky with corruption ETC being a problem, is that still buggy)

yeah that's fair

we're still on our way to progress through many of the caves, currently working to get in to the swamp cave and then the snow cave so there's no rush ofc

[high mango]

that depends on how you want to play or set it up, i have one where i can transport between the different arks, but i also have one with friends where we just play new maps completely from the ground up

[primal latch]

What is going on theres too many text blocks

[vital cliff]

what ark dlc bundle ahs all of the maps

the story ones

[late nexus]

alright that's fair then! there's other bosses in different maps, do they all just unlock the same TEK stuff after beating each 3 or is there different tek saddles etc you can unlock after beating different map bosses

[high mango]

you can get most of the stuff through the island bosses, there are going to be map specific ones tho bc those engrams came out with specific maps

like the skiff, rock drake tek saddle, etc

[high mango]

iidk what the bundles are, but the story maps are the island, genesis, genesis 2, abberation, and extinction

i might be missing one but those are the oones you want to make sure the bundle has

[bitter ore]

ultimate survivor edition

[late nexus]

what about when transferring stuff and characters to different maps, are there any chances of stuff being corrupted since i've seen past videos and threads about people's servers crashing after grabbing their items and server not saving resulting to a rollback with items being gone?

[bitter ore]

reading the steam revievs of ark is the most fun thing

"non intuitive controls, cannot find inventory" also him: 1,279 hours

[plush sonnet]

what are you gonna do with a 150 moschops

[inland jay]

any ark expert hear knows if i can hook up a windmill turbine to a generator

[bitter ore]

steam revievs are on different level fr

[vital cliff]

what happens if u jsut started

thats s tier

[plush sonnet]

lol

their attack and health are actually better than you would think, i guess

[kind crane]

Yeet

I got into university for a computer engineering bachelor

[verbal berry]

Is it normal you can't breed Magmasaurs in flowing lava rivers?

[bitter ore]

so i noticed an very common concept in steam reviews

they all complain about bugs and how it isn't worth it and that you need private server

and you need to play it 24/7

also how pvp is unfair and that they lost their progress and crying over it in reviews

[icy yew]

Can you milk tamed female wyverns

[rugged socket]

It is normal that I cant put a marker on the map

[exotic mulch]

My cave loot crates don't seem to be spawning back in swamp cave on the island

OMG. megalania is magic. I just saw 1 hanging upside down on air

[plush sonnet]

i love the ones that are like
NOT RECOMMENDED
(User Playtime: 2,673.1 hours)

[bitter ore]

Saw one with over 5000 hours, not reccomended

[exotic mulch]

We should defs listen to them then

[bitter ore]

Its like bots, they all complain at same issues, rarely varies

The most fun one that i found was "found monke. Tamed monke. Game crashed. No monke :(. Not reccomended

[plush sonnet]

or people just notice the same problems with the game

some people just have no appreciation for ambitious janky games

[paper spruce]

So what do we do if our server crashed and reset to day 1? Me and several others logged in not realizing it was day 1

[exotic mulch]

If only all my megatheriums had 20k health and 1200% damage but That is just my main 1 that I have leveled. I am to lazy to level the other 18 so they're just getting passive xp

[plush sonnet]

is all your stuff and levels gone, or did the day counter just reset?

[paper spruce]

No beds. I didn't spawn in. Just stayed on the map screen listening to other people freaking out

[plush sonnet]

what server service is it

hopefully they do backups

[paper spruce]

It's official crossplay

[plush sonnet]

not sure what that is but if it's an official server i guess you could file a ticket

that sucks

[exotic mulch]

Is the grinder worth it?

[azure fox]

Eventually you will tons of items to get rid of, grinder gives you more of the resources then demolish and let’s you grind gear as well

[sour fog]

Polymer farm. I can get more lvls if I tame a lvl 150 so I can spend more lvls into polymer harvesting rates

[silver mesa]

am i just unlucky or are voidwyrms way too rare cause i cant find a single one

[gentle summit]

anyone can help me in gamma boss gen2? :v

[exotic mulch]

How easy is it to kill a Leedsicthy with a megalodon?

[abstract blade]

Where is the best place for a base on lost island

[exotic mulch]

I had a basilo on 90% tamed and my meg ran off to attack it's manta and now it's taming has reset

[sour fog]

The taming resets if the basilos mantas are attacked?

[exotic mulch]

No. My megalodon hit the basilo when attacking a manta and it completely reset the tame

How far does the food have to drop before you can feed it again?

[autumn sable]

hellow friends
i'm here to ask about kraken's better dinos mod regarding flyers
the guide forum thing on steam says that the kbd allows for flyers to increase speed with imprint, does this mean that it will only work if the vanilla option for flyer speed is disabled or will it work either way as long as you have kbd installed?
also will the 1 percent speed increase from vanilla options and the 2 percent speed increase from kbd stack or is it better to disable the vanilla option for flyer speed?

[exotic mulch]

Let's goooooo. 1k hours playing ARK and tamed my first ever basilosaur

[sour fog]

Oh

[exotic mulch]

Now I can safely so the water caves

Now the only cave I will struggle with is that stupid snow cave

[sour fog]

Lol I heard it was torture

Whats in there thats valuable?

[exotic mulch]

An artefact for the dragon fight

I'm just gonna breed up a bunch more of my megatheriums and in there I am just gonna set the to aggressive in the big areas

[noble plank]

best way to grow a fjordhawk baby?

just have meat in its inventory or what

idk how to imprint more

[static sand]

guys idk what is going on, im playing on the island and all dino levels are shit

like i only find level 80- megatheriums

like wtf

[exotic mulch]

That is ament to be like that

[static sand]

wdym?

[stone rock]

My friend and I are on Abberation, i've never had this problem but he's hosting the non-dedicated and his game is extremely dark. Upping gamma just makes it faded and foggy. Any known solution?

[exotic mulch]

Item levels are ament to be more leaning to the lower side on the island whereas on other maps island levels are more distributed evenly

[wispy frigate]

Theory being “lower levels = less difficult dinos”
But in reality it just makes gameplay more annoying

[static sand]

so are you saying that dino levels are shit at the island on purpose

[static sand]

i see

[solemn timber]

they reset the Gen2 1627?

[static sand]

dam that sucks cuz the best male I could find was level 102

[exotic mulch]

I can kinda understand it as it's the island. It's the map people are ament to play to learn the game and what not so lower levels just makes it easier for bobs

[wispy frigate]

Yes but there should be an option to turn that off

[exotic mulch]

Yea

[noble plank]

how do you increase imprinting on a baby fjordhawk?

[vital bronze]

hey anyone know why i just lost all my missions from gen 2 i only had 7 left but it reset for some reason im on small tribes and i only had 1 mission left for beta and 6 for alpha

[wispy frigate]

Same way you increase it on any other creature

[static sand]

it is kind of anoying, like I know how to play the game but I never actually beat a boss before, so it is just frustrating if you k now what i mean

[noble plank]

i only played once on a priv server where the baby dino would ask for care every like 15 irl min. this is asking for care in 4 hours

[exotic mulch]

Yea

[wispy frigate]

Then wait four hours

[tall copper]

So one parent dino has 2 stats I want and the other has 1 stat I want. Is it possible to get all three stats on the baby in or do I need to keep breeding the stats in

[exotic mulch]

Yes you can get all stats on the baby

[tall copper]

Good so i can kill this one lol

It only came with 2/3

[static sand]

this breeding stuff is so confusing ong

[tall copper]

Tell me bout it I’m trying to breed Allos

[static sand]

like stacking stats and mutations and all that shit

[sour fog]

Are they mutated?

[static sand]

bro it is my first time trying to beat a boss

[exotic mulch]

Yea. 20 into health and 20 into melee

[static sand]

im breeding megatheriums, havent good a perfect pair yet @tall copper

[sour fog]

I'm experiencing that problem rn. I'm gonna go to ragnorak to get some nice lvl barrys

[sour fog]

Question. Is 20 into melee and 20 into health ideal? I mean you can go till you hit the stat cap but what would you suggest I go to?

[exotic mulch]

Or you could just randomly come into possesion of money then get a PC and use a mod to help with level distribution

[exotic mulch]

Once you get 20 stacks after that the chance of getting a mutation decreases

[sour fog]

It halves. Goes from 7% to 3%

[tall copper]

Can’t find a decent wild allo with melee past 334. Found a 5k hp allo and 1200stam allo so I’m trying to get the melee Stam and hp all on one egg

[sour fog]

But what should I go to tho?

[exotic mulch]

20. After that it's your choice if you want to go higher

[wispy frigate]

Almost
7.31% to approximately 4.06%

[sour fog]

Oh ok lol. I've seen people go into hundreds

[exotic mulch]

You can get up to 254 points into 1 stat. If you go higher then that stat will reset to 1 point

[wispy frigate]

334%? That would be insane for a wild allo

[sour fog]

Is it 254 points into all stats total or just one stat

Cuz people min max to get more points into a certain stat

[exotic mulch]

That's 1 stat

BRO. I look away from PC for 1 second then all of a sudden I have 2 alpha megs and 3 mantas eating me

[wispy frigate]

254 for each stat

[tall copper]

It’s a tamed stat of 334 melee

[wispy frigate]

Its actually 255 but you can’t level it at 255 so most go to 254

[wispy frigate]

Then yeah that’s terrible luck

[tall copper]

I’ll keep looking lol

[sour fog]

Dang the amount of power a dino must have at that point

[proud grove]

Strongest dodo on Ark

[sour fog]

Kills giga with 1 hit

[wispy frigate]

Dodos still suck

[sour fog]

Dodos have some use in my base

I was too lazy to tame other dinos so I used dodos to kill the penguins in my poly farm

[wispy frigate]

11k health and 243 damage with full 254 health and 254-88 melee and full imprint

[sour fog]

The dodos kill the penguins and the moschops harvest

[sour fog]

Yup dodos suck

@wispy frigate what mutation lvl do you suggest I go to?

[wispy frigate]

20

[exotic mulch]

That what I said

[wispy frigate]

You won’t need any more unless you’re fighting alpha cmc or something

[exotic mulch]

Or you just have poor starting stats

[sour fog]

Asking for everyone's opinion

[sour fog]

Cmc?

[sour fog]

What is considered poor?

Like an 'average' on the dododex stat calculator?

[wispy frigate]

Gen1 boss, very very hard

[sour fog]

What boss full name?

[exotic mulch]

Like 30 points after tame

[wispy frigate]

Corrupted Master Controller

[wispy frigate]

Anything below 38

[sour fog]

Before tame or after?

[wispy frigate]

After

[sour fog]

I cant check after tame tho...

[wispy frigate]

Incubator

[sour fog]

Dododex stat calculator only for wild

[sour fog]

O

What map can I get that on?

[turbid siren]

”added further increased wild dino spawns” is this just more creatures or are there any new creatures?

[sour fog]

Also how can I check the stats of a tamed dino in an incubator?? Isn't that only for eggs?

[wispy frigate]

You have to breed it

[wispy frigate]

Gen1, gen2, fjordur and li

[wispy frigate]

Just more creatures
There were spawn issues with next to no dinos spawning

[turbid siren]

Ah okay, thanks

[sour fog]

Breed it with what?

[wispy frigate]

Anything

[sour fog]

O i get it. Anything until the baby gets the health stat

[wispy frigate]

Yep

[exotic mulch]

Are dunkleosteus hostile? Are they hard to kill?

[wispy frigate]

You can also just use dododex for pretty much all stats except health, food and melee in most cases

[turbid siren]

Do we know when the scorched earth ascension stuff is coming?

[wispy frigate]

If you get really close I think so, they also take like 20% damage

[wispy frigate]

I think they said November for switch
I can’t remember if its coming for other platforms but if it is, it’d be after switch gets it

[sour fog]

If I go to gen 1 to get an incubator can I transfer it to the island?

[wispy frigate]

Yes

[exotic mulch]

I'm in a cave atm and see a lvl 300 and 250 hence why I am asking. I don't want to lose my basilo already

[turbid siren]

Okay, thanks

[sour fog]

Ok thanks

[exotic mulch]

There is gonna be a scorched ascension?

[wispy frigate]

Ah you shouldn’t need to worry
They’re not very dangerous even if they do agro

[exotic mulch]

oh ok. Awesome

Well um...4 sharks aggro on me and there dealing 300 to 400 damage per bite

[sour fog]

Hm. How much health your basilo have?

[exotic mulch]

20k

[wispy frigate]

A pack of cave sharks and an alpha shark ripped my basilo down by 15k health in less than 30 seconds

[sour fog]

Thats good enough right??

[sour fog]

Oh

[exotic mulch]

No wonder why there dealing so much. There was also an alpha mixed amongst all of them

[sour fog]

I'm assuming it isn't mutated

[wispy frigate]

It had 50k health tho so I was fine

[exotic mulch]

Nope

[sour fog]

I'm gonna mutate basilos before taking it to a cave

[exotic mulch]

I am just gonna slowly kill this alpha meg with 90k health

[queen robin]

anyone got deinonychus to trade

[sour fog]

What stat dino should I throw away before its tamed?

[exotic mulch]

YES. I beached the alpha meg with 90k health and now killing it with my megatherium

[queen robin]

anyone down to do survive the ark alpha

[languid agate]

whats ligma

[knotty mason]

what would you level on a snow owl thats just gonna be for a gacha tower?

[opaque trench]

looking for small group to play with

pc

[languid agate]

i would do health or damage

for a snow owl

[knotty mason]

would damage do anything? i was thinking just food and hp

[languid agate]

yeah who is using a snow owl for killing

go with maybe a argentavis

[knotty mason]

nah. these owls are just to sit in a gacha tower and spew pellets

[languid agate]

yes

[plush sonnet]

what do pellets do

[knotty mason]

increase the quality/quantity of crystal contents

maybe make them drop crystals faster too

[exotic mulch]

Can a basilo outrun a tuso?

[plush sonnet]

theres a swim speed table somewhere

[exotic mulch]

The answer to that is...no...There is 1 in this cave in the way of the artifact. How am I ament to get to the artifact

[plush sonnet]

ichthy?

[wispy frigate]

Fight it

[sour fog]

Hit it with crossbow and lure it away

[exotic mulch]

Would I be able to kill it with the basilo?

[wispy frigate]

Most likely, what level is it and how much health does your basilo have left?

[exotic mulch]

Basi at 13k atm. I can't remember what the tuso is at. I kinda saw it and ran

It scary

[sour fog]

Are basilo immune to the tusos grab?

[wispy frigate]

Should be fine, if you can clear a pack of megalos then you can kill a tuso

[wispy frigate]

Can’t remember tbh
Probably yes tho, basilos have enormous drag weight

[exotic mulch]

I'm not clearing the pack hat's following me. There is like 10 megalodons, eels and jelly fish around me all lvl 200+

[wispy frigate]

Ah

[sour fog]

You are having a wild experience rn I can tell

When I go ocean caving I might bring along some high lvl megs

[exotic mulch]

This is the hard underwater cave

[exotic mulch]

Basilo is the way to go because if they get stung by jelly fish then there guaranteed dead

[wispy frigate]

How much damage does your basilo do?

[plush sonnet]

the jellyfish are so broken

makes 90% of water tames pointless

[languid agate]

yeah

[exotic mulch]

Like 257 atm

[plush sonnet]

including all water platform saddles

[barren patrol]

Quick question: I just defeated Rockwell on Aberration. Where can I find my surviving tames?

[sour fog]

No I mean I mount basilo but I bring along some decent megs

[wispy frigate]

At the rockwell terminal in the red zone

[barren patrol]

Thanks

[exotic mulch]

Well google says basilo aren't affected by tuso grab

[knotty mason]

anyone else love how on gen 2 after rockwell fight all of your tames run off into acid pits?

[sour fog]

Basilos broken

[exotic mulch]

THE MOTHER F er. I turned around and it's right bloody there. I am dead. There is no way I am surviving unless I get stam back

[plush sonnet]

make a wooden chair

[sour fog]

Huh what happened

[sour fog]

Simple solution

[exotic mulch]

I went back to my game and turned around and the tuso, a couple eels and megalodons are all just there. I am dead. 0 chance I am surviving this

[plush sonnet]

why did you look away from the screen in the ocean

[sour fog]

Alt f4

[exotic mulch]

It's a 180 with 14k health. If I can get the tuso alone it's an easy kill

[sour fog]

The game won't save and you'll be put back like 15 mins

[exotic mulch]

no

[exotic mulch]

My game is paused

[plush sonnet]

stop typing and focus

oh

[sour fog]

Yes focus

[exotic mulch]

Benefits of singleplayer

[sour fog]

True

[exotic mulch]

I need to just drink some coke, relax and pray to the ark gods that I can make it out of the cave

[plush sonnet]

going in the ocean online gives me a heart attack every time

[sour fog]

At that point I just dip

[plush sonnet]

would it be cheap if i disabled cnidaria

[exotic mulch]

At this point it's only going into a cave

[barren patrol]

Flew down on a backup rock drake, and they're nowhere to be found. I know I had surving tames. Did they just get deleted on porting out of the arena?

[sour fog]

Then ocean caves will be a breeze with mosa

[plush sonnet]

0 point in taming 90% of ocean creatures with them around

[exotic mulch]

Just tame a basilo then there easy kills

[wispy frigate]

They shouldn’t have been, is it possible that they got drawn away by drakes?

[plush sonnet]

but i want to ferry my tames around on plesio platform saddle :(

[sour fog]

Not 90%. All ocean creautres except basilo

[wispy frigate]

Tuso too

[sour fog]

O. Learn something new everyday

[barren patrol]

Good point. Let me look around. Thanks again.

[wispy frigate]

Tuso gets slowed but you don’t get dismounted

[exotic mulch]

Can I pull this daring escape off? Probs not. Oh well. Streaming atm so I am just gonna clip this anyways afterwards

[sour fog]

Send to me through dms

This is a must watch

[exotic mulch]

If I die I am losing my ascendant flak armour

[split panther]

Anyone else having issues with official fjordur maps since recent upday?

[sour fog]

You got this man

Go for it

[exotic mulch]

WOOOOO. I made it

[sour fog]

I was waiting for this stupid ad to end and then I hop on stream and see that you've escaped

[exotic mulch]

haha. Well I am going back in once I am healed

[sour fog]

Also is that a mod? Where it shows you the stats of the creautre your looking at?

[exotic mulch]

That is awesome spyglass mod

[barren patrol]

Nothing in the area.... gonna relog at the terminal, see if they appear

[wispy frigate]

Rip

[barren patrol]

Ah well.....sux they got deleted, but gonna have to cut my losses and move on to Extinction

[exotic mulch]

HEHE. Crossbowing a surface tuso

[misty turtle]

You mean the spawn and despawn

[exotic mulch]

Tuso has been eliminated

I am starting to think that I am gonna need more then 1 basilo for this cave

[hexed fable]

hi i am new at ark can someone teach me how to play i am on xbox one

[exotic mulch]

The best way to learn is to just jump in solo and die and die again

[broken turret]

Started my first ark playthrough a couple days ago

I like the game but OH MY GAAAAHD

Big learning curve ig

[exotic mulch]

Would 19 megatheriums with 19k health and 800 to 950% damage with prim saddles and a yutyrannus be good for alpha brood mummy

[bold terrace]

@silent matrix @viral shore @tall minnow
the ping on my small tribes server has been straight 255 I submitted a report and support ticked 3 days ago no response. I've put alot of time into this server and its becoming unplayable my tribemates cant even play either their ping is terrible its our region please help

[acoustic anvil]

what does auto decay mean?

[barren patrol]

Auto destroys in a specific amount of time

[plush sonnet]

build stuff and unlock engrams

[acoustic anvil]

How can I get around this? Not everything is auto decayed

[barren patrol]

If you're on single player you can essentially disable it via your settings

[acoustic anvil]

but in pvp

[barren patrol]

If it's on a server (official or otherwise) then you can't get around it other than to log on before the timers expire

[kindred bronze]

No, need better saddles

[silent matrix]

i love not being able to play ark on my server cause nitrado doesnt update till like a day later -_-

is there a way to forcee it to update

[exotic mulch]

That's what I am trying to do but the chances of getting good stuff out of yellow and red drops are like 5%. You get better stuff from blue drops

[silent matrix]

u get better stuff from red and yellow

blue drops are horrible

[exotic mulch]

I got ascendant flak armour from a blue drop. I get gps bp from yellow and red

[silent matrix]

yellow and red are better

u just got lucky 💀

yellow and red consistently give me ascendant drops basicallty every time

i get stone pipes from blue drops

[exotic mulch]

I have also gotten ascendant chitin armour from blue and ascendant assault rifle from blue and getting building bp from yellow or red

[silent matrix]

ur settings are messed up then

[exotic mulch]

No. This is cave loot for ya

[silent matrix]

i dont think its even possible to get ascendant stuff from blues

[exotic mulch]

cave loot yes

[silent matrix]

or GOOD ascendant stuff

[exotic mulch]

From cave drops you can

[silent matrix]

are you even able to get blue cave drops

i dont think ive ever seen one

[exotic mulch]

yea

You can get green, blue, yellow and red

[silent matrix]

what map?

[exotic mulch]

The island

[silent matrix]

nor can it get asssault rifle

flak is red only

assault rifle is also red only

[exotic mulch]

I'm not lieing tho. Literally went to the cave on carnivore island and got full set of ascendant flak from a blue drop

[silent matrix]

and chitin is yellow +

which cave?

cause it varys

in underwater caves u can obtain them, but it is much more likely to get them in red to yellow

[exotic mulch]

The cave on carnivore island

[slate fern]

Has anyone had their dino go missing on Fjordur when using the warp ability? I warped to asgard and my Bat with all my stuff vanished, its not where i warped from either

[silent matrix]

happened to me 3 times

[slate fern]

Have you been able to find them or am i 💩 outta luck

SUCKS i just finished raising my giga and barely started using it

[queen robin]

anyone know what else you can use to harvest silica pearls besides dinos

[languid temple]

lol the terminal lagged out or glitched and I duped my basilisk

best day ever

[subtle field]

tamed my first space dolphin, cant ride it yet though

[proud grove]

I read somewhere that up to 4 fjordur deep sea loot crates can respawn. I've been checking all the locations once a day for the past few days and I'm only getting two at the most. Today there was only one.

[plush sonnet]

is it true deinonychus has pack boost? i've never seen it active in the wild

[topaz mango]

ye they do, one gets alpha status

[proud grove]

I've never used them to fight, but one female in my breeding pen is always glowing.

[potent hare]

Yo can someone play with me I have not played in 5 years

?

[plush sonnet]

why do none of mine glow ...

[static fjord]

how many do you have

[plush sonnet]

5

[static fjord]

highest level one should have a subtle glow around its head, if you ride it, it also has a pack boost roar

[plush sonnet]

hm i was looking around the body like allos/wolves, i'll look at its head next time

[potent hare]

Stupid question but is there voice chat in this game?

[silent matrix]

yo

[plush sonnet]

yes

[potent hare]

Alright thanks man

[silent matrix]

dumb question but is shadowmane prowl easy? with a 1.8k mele giga on small?

alpha

[topaz mango]

ye ez pz

[silent matrix]

33k health enough??

[topaz mango]

ferox hunt is the one to watch for, he can kill u from the boulders splash damage

[silent matrix]

kk

so shadowmane prowl should be ez on alpha?

[topaz mango]

ye with a giga or mana

[silent matrix]

ok ty

[topaz mango]

just watch ur stam u be ok

[silent matrix]

its got 400 stam

[topaz mango]

ye base

i grind that one for the hex tbh

[silent matrix]

thats what am gonna do

[potent hare]

Can anyone play rn?

[topaz mango]

as its fairly easy and fast

[silent matrix]

the giga has a prim saddle though

[topaz mango]

is ok they dont do much damage

[silent matrix]

kk

[potent hare]

Is stidia the full version of the game?

[silent matrix]

btw am not new to the game just gen2 i quit when it came out

[slate widget]

yes, stadia is also cross with PC. no idea how that works tho

[topaz mango]

ye u be golden then

[slate widget]

would assume it requires epic crossplay

[silent matrix]

my opinion gen 2 and nets ruined the game so muich

[worthy pagoda]

I think there is a bug with ocean platform
Whenever we try pick anything with exo on ocean platform it pics up whole ocean platform
2nd time this happened and it all became a mess
Pls fix this and put a pin on ocean platform which should be inserted before it can be destroyed/picked

[potent hare]

Thanks man

[topaz mango]

just be mindful off the highlighted area

[silent matrix]

@magic icecone do u think it could do the velonasour 1?

[worthy pagoda]

Yeah, but screen froze for few seconds then immediately all structures got into exo mek

[silent matrix]

coma not cone

[topaz mango]

the lag is painful when ur trying to pick stuf up, i agree with u there lol

[topaz mango]

it can do them all, just the freox hunt u gotta be careful

[silent matrix]

kk

ty again lol

[topaz mango]

is np

[serene hull]

from my understanding about breeding, we tame 2 dino, one with good attack and one with good health, then breed, get a pair with good attack and good health, then we get more female, then get a mutated male with either health or attack?

[proud grove]

correct

[static fjord]

make sure the pair with the good hp and melee are the exact same level

[small heart]

attack and health*

[static fjord]

ty lol

[topaz mango]

u may not get the stats first, i think it was 45/55 chance or 40/50 i forget but u will eventually

[wispy frigate]

55 for the higher stat, 45 for the lower

40/50 doesn’t work

[static fjord]

what happened to the other 10% lol

[echo kraken]

Uh

[proud grove]

taxes

[late nexus]

any tips for breeding? having a hard time with a friend of mine to try to get mutations and when we got one, we couldn't identify it, also should the animals be small or high level when being bred?

[topaz mango]

mutations is a random roll, if u cant locate it then its probably in something useless like speed or oxy

like 1-5% chance depending on dino

[proud grove]

have all the base females have all the same stats

[late nexus]

oh alright that makes a lot of sense

[topaz mango]

ye, i usually have about 20 fems cooking and it takes me a few births to get a decent mut

[serene hull]

do we need base stat to breed?

[proud grove]

takes me between 50 to 600 eggs to get the one mutation I want

[serene hull]

like no level uo?

[topaz mango]

sometimes u will get lucky and get on within 20 births or 10

[wispy frigate]

Uh no
7.31% chance for at least one mutation with no other conditions. Does not depend on the dino.

[topaz mango]

levels dont matter at all no

[topaz mango]

my figures are pulled from thin air :p so its nice u have the exact numbers

but i never ever get mutations from my deino, my shadows and thyla give me a mut once every 20

[wispy frigate]

Once every 20 is good

[serene hull]

im gonna suicide run the magmar cave in gen 1 again

looking for a level 100+

[late nexus]

so how should me and friend go about breeding argentavis? just have a lot of females with points all put in spots to make the stats even with all?

[wispy frigate]

Tamed levels don’t pass down. Don’t level your breeders

[proud grove]

ideally, all females and the one male should all have the same base stats

[late nexus]

oh ok so we've been doing this all wrong 💀

so no leveling up, lots of females, semi similiar stats with females/the male, anything else?

[topaz mango]

just good base stats and loooots off fems
