how should we go about recognizing good stats from bad and should we just tame thousands to match the stats then?
write down your stats and compare with the babies
Ask here
can you make a glider suit?
i dont think so
alright thanks a ton!
i have 20 grappling hook so i think ill live
in gen 1, you get blue gems but not the god damn aberration engrams, nor the SE or ext ones either
let's say all your argys are level 200. You'll know you have a mutation if you get a baby that is level 202. Then compare that baby to the adults and see if you got a mutation in health or melee.
ohh alright, are mutations big increases?
scorched earth is good but it doesnt have the diversity to be fun after a while.
Soon it will have ending and fit with other storyline dlc

i also forgot to bring weapon
I don't like the multiple mutations. One of them is always something like food oxygen or speed.
yeah im waiting on that before i go beat manticore again. scorched earth is my favourite map lol.
just a crossbow with 1 arrow
ye it sucks, i was lucky with my mantis one time, double melee mut
sucks even more when i get the double mutation, one is in melee and the other in speed, and i have to kill that baby
well u could try and breed it out
If they not add wyvern in other free map SE still be popular
remove the speed mutation?
breed it out after
Well you can alway breed that with the orginial parent to remove that speed
Or breed with the one before it
but it will still be in the mutation counter.
true but it wont have the mut, i stopped worrying about breading counter long time ago, some are in the billions
Anyone in Australia Tryna play a private session
If you stop worrying about the breeding counter then youll stop getting mutations lol
sucks as it doubles each time u breed anyway
It also messes up with keeping track if I keep unwanted mutations.
if parents have the same that is
but i guess we all have different ways of doing things, i just care about the mut itself
And if you're aiming to make a beefy level 449 dino, you don't want those unwanted mutations.
Youll get the “mut itself” much slower tho
i do find they give a better chance for a mut if u can get the counter to minus
maybe coincidence but thats what it feels like
Thats correct
But to get it to the negatives you literally have to breed 32 generations
probably why my deino never mutate, there counter is in the billions but they are max anyway
it can turn off your electric gen
or used too
ouch, im glad i dont play that map anymore
I like the added challenge.
Doesn’t it also disable guns?
Used to like 3 years ago
now it just disables chainsaws and maybe something else
i remember the days when everyone was confused as to why "electricity was shooting out of their gun"
it destroys cryopods or what?
No
if you try and throw it, nothing happens.
had that happen to me in the SE dunes while i was taming a mantis, was just sitting there waiting for the storm to pass lol.
basilisk
I know but that's hard to get
titanoboa are like the mini basilisk
I dont know why people say wyvern eggs dont feed basilisk
it did like 64%
for one fire wyvern egg
for a level 70
finally a use for wyvern eggs since I had them in about every container I had in my house
I don’t think anyone says that
because its not intentional/wasnt the case for the longest time
sorry just see so many people straight up lie to me on dodoex
dont. trust. dododex.
I dont anymore
dododex itself is amazing but the comments are doodoo
but anyway, since voidwyrm eggs were added to the list of feedable eggs, elemental wyvern eggs also work since voidwyrms are apparently a subclass of them or something, i forgor the specifics
Dododex commenters are 99999999% of the time incorrect
You might think I forgot to put a decimal there. I did not.
somebody since breath wyvern fire on magmasaurs instead of lava for breeding😭
that's where the trust issues began
That’s actually a feature
everything I know is a lie
flamethrowers work too
well awesome
Guys does anyone know a good un official boosted cluster? with gamertag to join on xbox ? If the server is good I'm gonna donate generously
I speak for everyone when I say cancel ark 2 and buff manas back to how they were at launch including being able to glitch through forcefields and remove fjordhawks
I hope ark 2 has dinos in it
just make a private server that has that
I really hope the dino game has dinos too
No
Sorry i will post there
would it be like a giant boulder
or like a hollow geode with a baby rock golem in it?
it'd have no rock on it. rock golems arent rock, theyre just an organism with a rock coating over them as armour
if rock golems can eat that means they have a digestive tract
does that mean they poop
no
Nah its more like they absorb the rocks
Search before you post there. It's full of server info.
they suck up minerals during hibernation, hence why they can eat rocks
mouth
Yeah i noticed I've been in ark official discord for like 3 years but haven't noticed that channel lol
I'm looking for a server to join with gamertag cuz I'm sick of the fuking (no sessions found issue ) on xbox
industrial forge
Those were just a couple of the channels (one was xbox pve, the other xbox pvp)
Tame a phoenix 👍
a phoenix?
.yup thanks man
Yeah thats how you should farm your metal ingots
You should listen to me i have two unicorns
dont listen to him lol. phoenixes are sub par.
I also have two unicorns
technically I had 2 unicorns but one of them disappeared in the terminal
5,000 cementing paste required to craft.. sighhhhhh
Absolutely listen to me I am ark jesus
Idk how to spell cementing
anky+argy. magma+skiff. stryder+skiff+tek storage.
those are the 3 best ways to farm. if the metal nodes are close enough to your base you can skip the argy/skiff tho
without a skiff, karkinos + double anky
wow its stats suck
very important stat
technically it is important on a magma
lets it be a furnace longer.
think it also effects the searing spit.
tip: do not use searing spit while smelting because you immediately drop down to 0 food
yeah, that lol
So magmasaur smelting is like daedon healing?
doesnt drain that fast
stone gives it a ridiculous amount of food. grab a few stacks and its set
you knw what the game need tek armor for dinos
tek saddles exist
saddles are armour
yeah, otherwise it'd just be a skin
why do basilisk have so much carry weight compared to so many other dinos
dont question it
less go I tamed my first rex
ok let me try like this
Wheres the safest place to spawn on asgard?
like I got 3000 carry weight
what do medevl knights wear in combat
big snake is strong
I guess
North
they get 75% reduction on stone though, amazing for metal runs when you need to dump a ton of stone into something
I just wish small dinos didnt attack it
armor. what do horses wear? saddles 😂
Raptors dont care they will attack me even if I'm on a giant monster snake
yeah unfortunately they arent classed as an apex. i keep mine buried
god your all some dense mfers
we know what you are talking about. just doesn't fit the game. it'd be a skin at best
I know what you mean
maybe ark 2 will have more armor-like saddles 🤷
tek armour would just be saddles but a higher quality, no?
there is that better saddles mod for ark right now tho
think it adds armor
unless it lets them fly yeah, or lets them shoot like the tek saddles already do.
im sry but i find that hard to believe that covering my prized raptor in steel plate wouldnt fit in a game that takes place in outerspace and has raptors in it
you could have your prized raptor coated in a thick hide made from the finest ovis that has triple the armour value than normal.
tek saddles already exist is what I meant.
also, raptor weight is garbage, youre actively killing it
having more armor on a saddle can't boost armor as then whats the downside? or the upside for using it vs an ascendant saddle.
it'd just be a skin for the saddles that already exist 
some saddles do have skins already. like parasaur and thorny dragon
maybe armour for the player
what do you mean by that?
like blocking player damage?
kinda would be OP :P few dinos block player damage when riding.
andrewsarchus salad and magmasaur salad
damage reductions
yum
does the thorny dragon also do it? I know it does temperature.
i can get magmasaur salad protecting the rider since its built to protect the rider from heat but i dont see why they just slapped a turret onto the andrewsarchus, gave the rider immunity and called it a day.
why do you call them salad
why not
i frequently replace saddle with salad and wait for people to notice.
I was just ignoring it :P
but seriously how come the andrewsarchus just turns into a tank.
fun
pig with minigun
can't have them just sniping the shooter off.
would make it useless
I mean you can’t exactly hit the rider when its in there
weird that it protects you from gas and drowning despite there being a giant hole at the front
can someone let me copy their windownoeditor files pls, i think i fucked up my files and my game is crashing rn its not opening
its just keep saying fatal error
i already unistalled all the mods
Maybe theres a window or something
but thats not my point, i can get it protecting you while youre in the salad but why even have the saddle to begin with.
glass does infact exist 
what if the glass isnt bulletproof
what do you mean? you don't need the saddle to ride it
No it doesn’t
Glass is an illusion
i dont like dinos that just get abilities from their saddle just because, like whats stopping me from taking that turret and putting it on a wyvern instead.
i had no idea lightning wyverns were so op, i got a 204 egg and got a full imprint
doesn't fit
Because wc needed an ability for a pig when they already had used the other two logical abilities:
Magic healer
Poop maker
the thing kills anything lol
What does oog mean?
out of game
Oh
usually out of game. which is against the code of conduct :P for trading anyway
i dont think turret was the best way of doing that
you can talk oog I guess lol
I see
i dont think turret fits either.
Thanks
because gas bags makes sense lmao
or the fact that the only thing immune to jellyfish dismount is a giant squid and a smallish whale
nothing else
Do you run ark servers pumpkin?
no
Oh
i think thats fine considering how slow cnidaria are
What do you do?
true. but annoying for going through any cave that has them.
yeah i almost got killed in aberration shadow cave a few days ago because of them.
a single touch and your mount and you are most likely dead
I would agree but
What would you have done?
Im not creative either, i'll think of something later
yeah, they wanted a dino with a gun. can't have them shooting the rider so it needs to be protected.
Andrew?
i can get rider being protected if theres a metal dome around them but what i dont get is why it has that metal dome other than "pig with gun"
so you don't get the reason besides the reason?
what does a car have wheels except to move 
what
Why does the car need to move
To go places
Ie
Why does the andrew need to shoot bullets
ah, yeah. I think we can just remove it :P
No
they wanted it to have a gun :P
just like you want a car to go places
I like the tate machine
thats how reasons work.
they wanted it to have a gun.
yea, why not have a gun on another creature
the frost breath is literally built into the creature though, its infused with element and it is an ice dragon
frost breath and jet jumps do not connect at all
This is a terrible argument
theres nothing stopping me from taking the turret and putting it on a horse for example
Because it lives in an icy environment and probably evolved that way
thats just how game design works
I thought they were made by the humans? 
Ok but i just think there should have been a better reason to put a turret on a pig rather than "why not"
there won't be tho. its a pig with a gun lmao what reason could there be
Pig with gun is cool
^^^
i hate saddles that just give creatures abilities for no reason.
That’s plenty reason
No
They were “corrupted” by element but then co-evolved with it
why can a maewing carry babies but no other dino (except the roo and flyers)
tons of saddles give effects. parasaur saddles are one of a few that you can put a torch on
Because it adds onto its current nannying abilities, the turret was just put there and imo doesnt fit
No
Theropod that shoots needles is cool
Saddle that has a gun isn’t
im pretty sure you can put a torch on almost everything
can they?
thought only the beginning tames could
i put it on a desmodus once.
But gun go pew pew
whats the theropod that shoots needles, i'd think thorny dragon but i dont think its a theropod
*saddle go pew pew
Put a saddle on a dodo and make it go pew pew
oh velona.
do beavers get more wood than mammoths?
Velo
I don't think so but the tcl might've changed it 🤷
Give every creature a gun
I believe so
Is vanaheim a good place to set up a base even?
i like velonas because they built a projectile based weapon into the creature itself and then having a reason why it has that ability
Can i join anyones tribe on ps4
so beavers gather more wood but mammoths have more weight
Andrewsarchus irl was like a wolf in sheeps clothing, hunted normal animals cloaking itself as if it wasnt a carnivorous pig.
So instead of a gun, what if it got a first hit bonus (maybe like 2x extra damage) on anything smaller than it and could pacify any creatures around it similiar to a pachyrhino but on a larger scale, cloaking itself as if it was a normal pig
mammoths have the drum 
war mammoth
Yeah
Mammoths can also pick things up, debuff things and gather. Their main ability is not purely in the saddle
i dont think thats as out of place as a literal turret on a pig considering mammoth does have the ability to negate courage roar with the intimidation (i think?) and also decrease attack damage, it has abilities as a war mount and its saddle adds onto that
Heya, what vanaheim is a good place to spawn?
is that what it does
never used it. can't set them to auto do like a yuty
i have no idea either, i use them for wood
which one is vanaheim? beach is a good spot regardless tho.
I think the foresty one
i think its the crystal isles floating isles biome looking place with the poison wyverns
Im going around the biomes and checking places where I can set up base
The plant one with the tree
Asgard is too open for me
vardiland is good.
hmm. I only know the gacha pool in vanaheim :P
Melon what do you think
assgaurd is too yellow for my liking
found like 10 gachas in my game there 😂
like, they could have made asgard literally any other color and it would have been fine
but the yellow just destroys my eyes
Dude this game is super awesome but really super hard to learn
2 dinos with cloaking in the same map? 
For me it feels too open, and I actually feel lonely there
But im getting it but have no one play with yet
gun is cool though
the pig is supposed to be an unstoppable war mount. the saddle helps with that. its a tank and it can shoot.
So, where's a good place to spawn on vanaheim?
don't think anywhere is really dangerous there 
Not actual cloaking
Oh
Well the one guy just showed ip last night was cool how do you all pick your server’s
Oke
obviously don't go with the wyverns 😂
kenophobia?
but pretty sure all dinos spawn everywhere
Disagree
The creature gets most of its abilities from the gun itself, that shouldn’t be what makes a creature good imo
Velo did it much better, incorporating the gun into itself
what the astro then :P or the crystal isles bird.
both of those are pretty much only the saddle (crystal bird does have grinder)
i dont think astrodelphis or tropeognathus was that good either.
dinos have unique saddles. why not add things to them lmao
but as ive said before, velo is a good way of adding a projectile based weapon into a creature
im fine with cool saddles with cool abilities (like magmasaur saddle) but i at least want a reason as to why it has one other than "cool pig with gun"
i can agree that it could have more to it than "pig with gun"
To make it unique?
i agree
it’s like the epitome of ark
magmasaur saddle is designed to protect you from literal lava so that both of you can swim in it. velona evolved in deserts to camoflauge like cactus and thus has cactus needle-like projectiles
When the saddle gives 80% of the actually useful abilities then I have a problem with it
i've always wanted a gunner mount
weird dog with gun
so both astros and the trope 
you can have a gun on a creature without the gun being the entire selling point
(i know it’s an ungulate but it’s also not a pig)
what the is it
hippo
are pigs not hoofed?
I like astros a bit more because they require element to use and a high level saddle, plus they’re very beautiful. But still, they get nearly all their abilities from the saddle
Hate tropeos tho
hippos and whales are the closest relatives
oh, it at least is on the pig side
Maybe im not cool enough cause i got swamp sick my first day last week and i got one cure for one server but cant on the others
it’s on the pig/deer/hippo/whale side and not the horse/rhino/tapir side
wait. tapirs aren't pigs
nop
I am so confused lol
:)
i am so glad on how i am doing on primal feae
fear
i can make the 3rd teir of kibble elemental kibble (their are 14 tiers or 17 havent checked)
No @plush sonnet bad
i have a toxic dodo. thyla, vanilla dodo, methopicithicus, alpha dire bear, alpha dodo too :)
@plush sonnet how long have u been playing fjordur for
thats a strange name 😂
is it fun?
y
i might try it after ragnarok
yes i recommend
either fjordur, crystal isles, or valguero idk what to pick, i still gotta finish rag tho lol
Fjordur is good fun
valg was my first map, liked it a lot
have u tamed an andrewsarchus yet
nop, just got some deinons really
i saw some vids on fjordur, so many leeds and megalodons spawn lol
yeah the ocean kinda sucks
I’d avoid using rafts for travel
valg is nice bc no leeds
i just use a basilo or baryonyx
but theres also not a ton of water
leeds dont attack u right? unless ur on a raft or u attack it
ok
i’m strongly considering removing most jellyfish from fjordur so i can at least use plesio platform
can’t use raft, can’t use platform saddle, whole ocean surface is a waste as-is … might as well just fly everywhere with cryopods
im terrified to try and tame a plesi tbh
metoo
i have wanted to for a while but the ocean is scary
but they’re so cool
just try to tame a basilo if they spawn on fjor
i want to ferry my tames around on it :(
u can technically just stay above the depth limit but theres other scary stuff
They do
ocean was built to be cancer, every underwater creature is the same class so doesnt matter if youre on a mosa or tuso, everything is going to attack you.
theres jellies on the surface everywhere
tusos are so weird lol , taming them is such a pain and they swim backwards
basilo :D
but i want a platform
or just crossbow them from a distance
might try to put autoturrets on the platform
kill the jellyfish and take the basilo out when ur gonna tame a plesi
they get stuck on rocks easily
how do you make deathworms come out of the ground?
run over them
With a truck
fab snipers aren't the most cost effective method of dealing damage, nor do i think they have the dura to back it up.
r andrews radiation imune?
but it should me able to kill atleast 5 magmasaur level 75+
if im correect
i mean they are pretty tanky.
No, but while riding one with a saddle the player won’t take rad damage.
ohh
is that a bug?
don't alt+tab while it's loading
its shooter gamecrash
im surely confirm my comp is good on spec requirement
after 348.3 it become like this
was able to launch and play
mods ? was it working before ?
have u tried joining an official server, the private server might have mods or something, worth a try
what's better than fab sniper
fab sniper isnt good for dps on pve.
but this game is finnicky, everytime it crashes it corrupts some files making the crash worse
i running integrity check now
u might want to run in command prompt "sfc /scannow" just in case the crash corrupted any windows files which it seldum does
but usually its a mod breaking on patches
i running both now
that will slow the process down, probably best to do one at a time especially if on hdd, on an ssd it wont matter so much
Shotgun is good
shotty is best weapon imo
regular or pump action?
im running ark on external hardisk btw
Definitely pump
so ur restricted to the sata speed anyway
too large file
can i solo fjordur ab cave with a deinon and a pump action shotgun? or with 1-2 noob friends?
u have run the game before with np ?
i'm also a noob with caves really
whats np?
with no problem
yes
Just be aware that spinos and alphas can spawn in that cave
first time i played was valguero last summer and somehow we didn't find a single cave except the ab cave
updated graphics drivers ?
just slower as in internal one
whr to confirm whether it is updated?
nvidia or amd ? usually on the control panel u can see
gtx3060
Just get a desmo, they’re easy
nvidia control panel, system info at the bottom
but i want the real caving experience
why does desmo show up as little dots on the spawn map?
bro my red drop spawned in the ground
rip
which part should i look for
on the control panel at the bottom left is system info, click on it
What do you mean
it will tell u the driver version, then just compare with whats latest
on the official wiki fjordur spawn map
like this could have good flak bps in it
if i select Desmodus, instead of the usual green/yellow boxes, it shows little green dots
isit on "about"?
system and security
hmm maybe the control panel is different to my 980ti but i just right click desktop to get nvidia cp, then where u set 3d settings, change res etc in the bottom left corner is system info which gives driver version etc
Probably because they spawn in caves hanging to the ceiling and don’t wander around so the spawn points are more defined.
or run dxdiag
although i cant remember where the driver version is in dxdiag
its nvidia
or just download the latest version from nvidia, when u go to isntall it, it will say u have latest version or not
okay i trying
and your sure you are not subscribed to any mods ?
as that last patch broke a few mods
not sure
u can see in steam
whr to check?
iirc, community then workshop, it should show what mods you have subscribed but its been a while for me as i dont use mods
unsub from them until u get the game working
so i remove all?
unsub then remove
alright
is there any mod that can help me with a problem with supply drops
but im guessing its trying to load in a broken mod, but give it a few days, active guys will update asap
and why one of them keeps spawning in the ground
still new to this game
so was we all once :p
a big game with bunch of trouble xD
a finnicky game at that, sensitive to unstable machines and data
yet it is fun
it is most off the time
been playing since the first week off beta and im always learning something new everyday
Is it possible to take down Rockwell's tentacles with a spino?
i think spino are the meta for rockwell, shotguns just have the range and better dps
and easier to manage with shotty, then save spino for main dps on his body
u want some range from the tents for when they start to electrify
Yeah, but I wonder if a spino with 74 points in melee (it has 20 mutations on melee) deals more dps than a shotgun
meta is cactus broth, without cheese, megalos.
more than likely tbh
I know, but I'm playing without mods and with just the things the map offers
might work for the first few waves but once the reapers start spawning you might want to switch to a camo'd drake.
So the spino would be better even if compared with an high damage shotgun (like 500/600)?
600% shotgun? doubt it.
How much damage a shotgun like that deals?
think like 240 per pellet or so
max on officials is 298 so anything higher than that is awesome
240x14 but i dont think you'd consistently hit 14 pellets everytime.
if you can destroy the tentacles in a full 6 shells or under, thats good enough.
I'm playing singleplayer
How much health a tentacle has?
i actually have no idea. i cant find any values anywhere
im going to assume around 4200 on alpha
I've tried looking for it too, but can't find anything
you can try cheating in all the tributes and going in with just a magnifying glass to check
well SP is about 10x easier so u should be ok
there is no difference in sp except theres no timer
What concern me the most is the nameless and reapers, so I was thinking about bringing that spino with 50k health and 2k damage and leave it on aggressive slaughtering everything
are you bringing a drake?
I'm playing with max difficulty enabled, so it's like an official. The only difference is that you can have a life
If I bring the spino and leave it on aggressive, yes
theres metal pillars in an R shape facing rockwell, you can actually climb up them and sit to regen stamina on your drake. thats what i did when half way through all my dinos died
I'll keep that in mind, thank you
you can also glide from pillar to pillar to get the balls to clump up and you can hit them in just 1 pellet
I'm also starting to mutate my drakes, so stamina shouldn't be a problem
I don't know of the best way to offer a suggestion but I'm just posting this here so someone might read it and think hey that's an awesome idea... we should add it 🙂
But I think that it would be a great idea to include an extra notification when a hawk picks up your body after you die to transport back to a bed.
Instead of being in a tribe with multiple ppl and seeing a red death notification and thinking oh my tribemate might need some assistance.... I think a blue follow up notification saying Fjordhawk has recovered *tribemates names' body. Would be a really nice addition 🙂
I've found a assault rifle, I'm bringing that for the balls
i havent actually checked if you can climb up the pillars while theyre being electrocuted but you can for sure glide over them
dont underestimate how much ammo you'll need lol. the balls never stop coming
the file integrity takes years to done
thats HDD's for ya
I know. If I remember correctly once you shoot at one, all the others nearby explode too, right?
yep
be careful shooting a ball close to your character, might explode all the others near you and cause a lot of damage
doing rockwell felt soo much like doing the boss on atlas
I'll keep that in mind, thank you
Is Atlas a nice game?
it had potential, same devs so very similar, they dropped that game for this and ark2
at some point in the fight there'll be like 10 balls chasing you down at any given time, when that happens just keep running and shooting, circle around the balls and make sure you arent wasting too much time on them.
Ark official looking to trade xbox pvp
F
Sure
Do the balls damage the tentacles?
I know, thank you
What happens when I upload my character
it goes into the ark data
I heard the game can crash and I lose my character
Anyone wanna trade xbox pvp??
once upon a time u did but if u go to a server and it crashes, u just have to go to another server then back and all is good
it can, but that can easily be fixed if you use the command saveworld before and after a download and upload.
if you saveworld directly after, you wont.
oh ye sp is different, jsut save like wyvern said
Whats the command
Ok
After i upload my character and make a new one
Will I still own my dinos or they belong to the original owner
Ok
command wont work if the players in the tribe (your old character) has been deleted
Ok
If I use the uploaded character with all my dinos
I still own them without command
What
yes, your uploaded character will still own your old creatures
Where can i find noglins?
I am on a snow owl, and according to the spawn map at the right location, but i cant seem to find it. Any tips?
are you in rockwells garden or innards?
Dont know the difference, but i think innards
innards is the meat location, garden is the purpley place with funky looking trees
Yeah i think the innards, everything looks kind of meaty
Looks like stranger things
noglins usually take a while to spawn in the innards, theyre also pretty hard to see. for whatever reason, noglins despawn on sp when you log off regardless of what you do or where they are, so they basically get dinowiped.
Ah
Well i am on a snow owl, which makes them less hard to see i would say, but if it takes a while to spawn i will just fly around
i recommend going prone somewhere or landing somewhere safe and afking for like 20 minutes
i think bloodstalker is the best way to see noglins, thermal vision didnt help me too much personally.
btw, did you bring a trap or?
Ye
youre going to trap it in rockwells innards?
Imma lure it to a safe place
the area inbetween rockwells garden and innards where its just an empty hallway is a good place.
Excactly my plan lmao
i originally tamed my noglins at the spacebridges lmao
no, i picked them up.
Aaahhh, sadly a snow owl cant do that
i used a skiff and just dropped it
but of course 99.99% of players wont have a skiff on gen 2 lol
Lol
good thatch farmer?
megaloceros, iguanodon, mammoth etc
gonna make a trap for a rex, probably gonna get a lunar rex or whatever called
But do you know how you can trap dinos easy? With the noglin 🤩
Aight time to search for the noglin
Like trapping a rex for example with a noglin?
Ye
dont mindcontrol it because delatching off a wild dino instantly kills it. you can use the noglin itself to lure a dino into a trap though
yea
mindcontrolled wild creatures lose up to 50% of their health passively over the 5 minutes mindcontrol regardless of what you do, and then at the end of the timer, the dino dies.
i use noglins myself because its like an organic insta skill. i like cost efficiency and thats basically as efficient as you can get at killing creatures
if a rex is chasing you, just throw your noglin and now that rex is yours for 5 minutes and you can kill it whenever you want
are beginners servers always wiped?
theyre technically tamed when you do that too, so you can slap a saddle on it and ride it like it was a normal creature, until it of course dies in 5 minutes, even better on things like wyverns who dont have saddles
Amazing how 0 noglins are spawning 🤩
ark for you lol.
ark knows what creatures you wanna tame and hides them
What if i knock something out while it is being controlled
it instantly dies
What if i tame it in time?
i tried that on a horse i think, buckkicked a bit too much and the horse just died a sson as it passed out.
i dont think you have the time to feed anything considering the fact that it instantly dies
bruh i have to download an update now
no good level x rex 😔 time for lunar
Also, when is a creature purple or orange, according to the predator vision
guys how can I change the Singleplayer settings to delay being encumbered
does anyone have a high level cap setting that i can copy?
nvm lunar fucking suck
a 135 X-Rex!
how do i tame a rex
knock it with tranq or a club, give meat and wait
but wont it kill me?
do yutys affect wyverns
fear or courage roar
are managarms still allowed and mountable on Aberration or something changed?
they still are afaik
fear
dont think so
alr cuz i found a 180 and dont want my wyvern to get feared
nvm ppl on dododex says wyverns get feared by yutys
even wiki can be wrong at times but i think most off that data has been corrected now
dododex comments are basically 99% wrong
or heavily outdated
hi i have a question where do i go?
depends on the Q but u can ask in here, more refined answer will be in the relative section
so i wanna join an ark with my friend, we rarely have this problem but it wont let me connect to his non dedicated server
so is he hosting through his client ?
yes
as u can host through client or host seperately
it also takes a few minutes for it show/load to be able to join
i tried to join him once again and got an error "another pending section" im relaunching now
usually we are able to join instantly, we had the same problem on cerystal isles
u are on a seperate network or same network ?
but like a day later the issue stopped happening
seperate
hmm ye, if u was able to join then, u should be able too now
unelss he changed something or added a mod
Wyvern, i found one! It is almost tamed!
nice
we have the same mods same everything
can u join via friends list ?
thats what we have been trying
maybe he started it under sp ?
The taming effect did go down, but not even by a lot
what TE did it tame at
hmm no idea then, u could rephrase the question in bobs with probs, most stuff is lost to noise in here
What does TE stand for?
the connection error mesasge is key to the problem tho
i dont see that channel?
Oh wait, like 75%
taminf effecfiveness
i forget how to link channels 😛
with a #
75% te is pretty bad.
but is the 4th below this one
u wont get answer staight away, but it will be visible to see it easier than here
what did they do in the patch?
How do i use it lmao
the noglin?
i hate how a X creature have 40% resistance to torpor
its 2.5x
i think thats 60%
i have been bumping 50 tranq darts and roughly 40 tranq arrow with crossbow into a level 135
6500 out of 14500
x creatures just be like that
Damage resistance be like that. X mosas are awful
X dunkies are hell
7k torpor
he (my friend) recommended me to search in the actual servers section, ill let you know how it goes
you should tame a basilisk, would help a ton with taming
finally the additional crossbows come in handy
I have many, many msny many many basilisk

i need more basilisk but my karkinos collection must grow.
Ye
oh yeah, did it mention theres a magmasaur and 2 allo right outside my trap?
and another rex
throw it off your shoulder, if it touches something it gets mindcontrolled.
alternatively, hold down the wheel on your noglin and enable brain hunt
im not looking for a server lol
how often do they release updates?
no one knows
like every other month or week or smthin like that
are you excited for ark 2 🧐
im pretty neutral on it right now, the promised features are amazing but i want my tek and fantasy
That means when timer hits 0 u can imprint
what if it mature before i can imprint it
Then you need to change settings so you can imprint 100% before matured
I cant play fjordur why
most settings dont allow full imprint on all creatures which really sucks
in event, u have loooots off grace time,, when its back no event, u have to be on time or miss an imprint on some dino
mfw when a thyla pounces me but it doesnt expect the unmatched power of a 12 gauge shotgun shell
I can't get the wooden elevator to work. I've built it several ties and I can't click E to raise raise it.
did you build the switch at the top
instead, the option I get is Hold E to release the platform.
they are buggy when u re render or log off, mine doesnt work from the track but it works from the platform all the time
yes, it;'s at the top. it;'s a top switch.
so longer time to mature?
the lift isn't
can you dm me a screenshot
it's at the bottom.it doesn't give me the ioption to lift the elevator, only release the platform.
wtf
the swimsuit top doesn't hide your gloves?????
just lounging at the beach in my bikini and fur gloves
Mhm
@static fjord enable dms.
Or make it 100% imprint on the first imprint
my dms are enabled.
i used 100 prime meat to wear fur gloves and fur boots to the beach
I need to make the event items before event go bye bye
just remove your gloves?
but i need armor and insulation
its okay if you miss the event. hln-a sells the skins
Gloves aren't important
I'm on the island so no hln-a
i dunno if anyone else would agree, but a mod that prevents you from losing items on death really ruins the game to me
Yes
If anything it actually makes an exploit, because you can just die and respawn at bed with everything instead of eating or drinking.
you dont need a mod for that, fjordhawk does that
Yeah, but it's not a permanent buff?
So assuming you don't like the fjordhawk
you get the effective no penalty from death though and all the exploits?
tell that to @gilded rose.
His server is great until you realise he has that mod
why are you just going to slander someones server just because they have a mod you dont like lol
because i can 😄
Just don't play said server then
oh i wont, already left it
Haha
Waste of my time
Losing all your stuff on death is usually not even a big deal anyway, you just recraft the stuff you lost or go and regain the body.
Why is this mod even a thing
so why do you hate the mod then if its not a big deal lmao
I've lost full ascendant gear before in a cave as well as my good dinos and I couldn't get them back
Because of what I said
^^
I think thats the last of the exploits people actually care about
I mean you could just teleport to places as well because you don't lose items
stealing eggs with it isnt nice.
I think there's a good reason you lose items on death.
You're literally talking about what the fjordhawk does
you love bringing that up constantly
Because thats what fjordhawk does lol
Well you're dissing the mod but do you hate the fjordhawk?
I agree no death penalty is bad and can be exploited very easily, fjordhawk is the same. But imo I dont think you should be going around slandering a server for no reason other than "my opinion is better and this server has a mod i dont like so its bad"
Note: You can kill the fjordhawk. If you snipe it, it will die and lose all items, so in pvp it's not a very viable strategy.
Other note: It's very unlikely it will be able to carry all your items, it's weight has a limit like all animals in the game.
Other other note: These things are a pain to tame
So no, it's not the same as having a fucking hawk, now get off that already
Woah. Dude relax. No need to get upset
Note: the fjordhawk tps to you on death
other note: it carries all your stuff regardless of weight
Like I said, it's extremely different.
no its not lol
It doesn't. I already know it doesn't because of a yt video. Yeah but it can still be killed lmao
There's also some items the hawk is not allowed to carry.
has the hp for it to not matter, and i already know it does because ive seen youtubers use it
if fjordhawk wasnt op i wouldnt see people stealing wyvern eggs and committing suicide and then respawning with the eggs perfectly fine lol
Boooo. The way to steal eggs is with a sinomacrops
on the topic of sinomacrops, i hate them, actually stupid how broken they are.
i hate how balance and exclusive creatures were thrown out of the window when LI and fjordur were released
So u hate sinos and thingo hates hawks
i hate both.
basic question but i came back to very poor servers so i just wanna know if official is the way to go or just do modded?
in terms of lag
Not an instant tp if u die to turrets say good bye to ur hawk
Fr
@static fjord yutys can kinda scare the wyverns, if they fear roar i think 2-3 times the wyvern will be scared
what were you expecting when you ran into 100 turrets
if its only once it'll just feel uneasy
Well just telling u that if it's an instant tp regardless of how many turrets u should get ur stuff back
i mean they need to have a few seconds to tp which is fast enough for it to not matter in most scenarios
do people not setup gacha towers with feeding troughs? do they just put the gacha and owls out when they want to run it?
Right
either way, fjordhawk is only slightly inferior compared to keeping items on death
Anyone wanna play ark I'm lonely
Go get friends then
I was using a public teleport, but my tribemate suddenly died so we checked the log. In the log it says "World barrier destroyed (tribemate name) at X=343285.656 Y=-46447.500 Z=97864.633" Someone please help he had like 72 cryopoded dinos
sounds like he got meshed
I have all the materials to craft a pump action in a fabricator, but for some reason I cant craft it?
is it powered via gasoline
oooooh
I put wood and raw meat and started the cooking pot, why is the raw meat not getting cooked
cooking pot doesnt cook food, campfire does.
cooking pot is for making more complex recipes like stews, kibble and your own custom consumables
how many alpha raptors does it take to get from lvl 87 to 89
you can calculate xp required on the wiki using the xp acquired from x dino at y level
Depends from server you play, i suggest u setup a grinder, then grind thatch in it, you will get xp fast
yoo how do I get rid of these weird skins I get everytime I spawn?
animated series costumes ?
in settings, turn off give default survivor items
its either or none so u cant be selective
i usually just die a few times, save the skins i want then turn it off
really?
i’m on 3x xp
Official or sp?
use the wiki.
unofficial w similar rates to official event
how?
Setup a grinder then grind Woody/thatch in it, its best way to farm fast xp until you have baby gigas
theres a level input box, enter a level and it changes how much xp it drops
ok it’s 102,868 from 87 to 89
Its not much bud 🙂 im on official 162->163 need 35 milion xp 😂
oh found it
8904 xp gives Alpha Raptor lv 75 on X1
it’s 3*8904=26,712
Yup exactly
so only 1 alpha raptor
i took the totals from 87 to 88 and 88 to 89 and added them together
u moved a decimal place or smth
I think you added xp required for 87, 88 and 89 and added them all together which is wrong since you dont lose xp
103k xp between 87-89 (ark gamepedia)@plush sonnet
use ark.wiki.gg
i got the 100k number from the gg wiki
oh yeah i used the wrong number, yeah 103k.
well i’ll kill those tomorrow and find out what’s in these 3 150 deinon eggs
incubator shows egg stats, right?
yea
Only egg stats, not baby stats
theyre the same.
what’s the difference? can i use dododex wild stat calc on the eggs?
yea well someone just told me that the egg stats are different so i thought it might work on them
who
kamil-san 30 seconds ago
yeah and i just said theyre the same.
kamil hasn't elaborated and i dont see how egg is different from child so
which r the slowest wyverns?
elemental and voidwyrm are the same, crystal are faster, tropical crystal is fastest with hydration.
250 electronics for the incubator! 
omg you can perform stat-selective abortions on mammals with the incubator
“After travelling to Genesis: Part 2 and unlocking it, you cannot craft it in the Fabricator on your home server/map. Crafting it in the Tek Replicator is possible though. It is believed to be a glitch and only temporary. Not enough information currently. This may be resolved by placing a new fabricator or picking up and replacing your fabricator on your home world.” - official wiki
how do I wipe my engrams back to what I already had unlocked after exiting creative mode?
I mean my crafting page engrams, not the engram tabs engrams.
There is a bug in Fjordhawk, after death it will not carry items and the body will remain empty, thus you will lose the items you have with you.
Does anyone have the same problem?
did you turn the setting on?
yes is on
they have this problem on multiple servers, so it won't be a setting
this problem arose with the last update🤷♂️
lol wyvern trench got no wyverns
idk how to even tame a fjordhawk early/midgame
people are saying you need to feed it 20 ovis or smth
kill some diplos
tame everything early game, breeding mid game, selling end game 😛
slaughtered ovis / corpse - but this is already fixed
don't tell me you can't sleep in a sleeping bag
you cant sleep in a sleeping bag
is more bug? i dont testing i have bed 🤷♂️
no
I clearly misunderstood what the guy wrote, my mistake haha 😂
bruh you can't cook in a cooking pot, you can't sleep in a sleeping bag. devs are trolling
you can cook in a cooking pot
you can cook in a cooking pot, just you have to mix everything in the pot and cant create simple items like cooked meat
Sleeping bags are just a cheap respawn/fast travel point. Laying in a bed doesn't do anything either, aside from slow your food/water consumption rate if you're afk, unless it's a tek sleeping pod which adds extra xp.
what is this convo
sleeping in a bed helps with draining blood for desmodus/bloodstalkers
wait so I can't skip to daytime just by sleeping in bed
No
no
It's also nice not to spawn in the mesh when you log on
oh i need to add that to my list of daily things
how would that work for multiplayer
Can you please check the issue with Fjordhawk? me and my friend have a bug on the server that won't bring you things from a corpse
Fair point lol
#bug-reports, I'm just a volunteer
breed a pteranodon egg, collect deinon eggs, and get blood packs
I mean in minecraft it was that everyone has to get in bed in order for it to be day time, but I guess ark is just a harder survival game lol
tbf nothing changes in ark during the night except for like 2 dinos that get a nice buff
do you just increase gamma and play normally?
no
Troodons get a nice buff indeed
or just play blindly
use a torch or night vision goggles
i use charge light, torches, flashlight, glowsticks. i like playing immersive and not with gamma
it’s a survival game, night is a game mechanic
Night vison goggles are awful
yeah I feel like gamma takes away from the experience
Yup true, shouldn't use those
wut why
walking around at night during early game with a torch or glowstick is very immersive.
i used em on valguero fine
The green view actually makes me sick
Gamma at least let's you see the experience
fair enough
at the start no one knew how to do gamma, i do miss them days running away froma rex in the drak and into other things, not being able to see where your going, falling off cliffs etc
i like the night vision goggles
Is the hawk there when you respawn but your bag isnt?
nice i stole 3 dragon eggs without dying on my argy
why is there not an option to make a marker where you are currently standing on the map?
you can just use a gps and use the coords from it to mark down your location
ther is an option
You can, open your map while not riding a tame and press p
oh damn do you know how to do that on console
well I have to make a gps?
Should be select (map) then x?
oh hm i cant even use map markers. x used to work but doesnt anymore
i remember glowsticks turning off when i double tapped x too, doesnt work anymore either
Oh I forgot there was a bug, hang on let me see if I can find it again
I opened the map and pressed P it just opens the add marker menu and tells me to put the latitude and the longtitude
yeah - is missing youre bag and youre dino is not fully come back is little bugs
Thank you
