Your map should have an arrow where you are, if not, log out, go to main menu, and go to host/local, should be under general or advanced, check ShowPlayerLocation or something similar
Was an update with steam yesterday, so console should get it soon?
how come other items using X dont work too? namely glowstick but there might be others
Not sure, I don't even know what could've messed up the map markers
oh so I just look what my lat and long are and type them?
Yeppers
will there be any new fjordur servers opening any time soon?
@tough yarrow I have another question for you, I rather need help, it happens to me very often, especially with the Extinction map, that I discover the entire map and when I log out and return to the map, the entire discovery of the map disappears... and I don't know how to fix this problem - it mainly does map ext
Since I've never encountered it, I have no idea. Sorry.
thanks 🙂
can wyverns go in boss arenas?
if they allow flyers, yes, otherwise no.
ones that allow flyers off the top of my head is manticore and cwq arena. idk about any others
the island ones don't
ab one obviously doesn't
extinction is only world bosses
gen 1 I'm not sure on but I don't think so
gen 2 I don't think so
the free maps I think none of them do apart from cwq
i love how you skipped scorched earth
yeah because you already mentioned scorched
I mentioned cwq because I said "none of them do" for the free maps which would be wrong on its own
yeah i also mentioned that only manticore and cwq do so why mention the other arenas.
idk, I'm smart
why did the purple unconscious bar not appear when I knocked out a Stegosaurus with a club, I can't open it's inventory to tame it.
u cant net the normal stego ?
Dude, i hopped back to fjordur, downloaded the noglin and my game crashed, now its gone :/
is it dead
nah it typed unconscious with a green font and the remaining health next to it
single player?
yes
idk thats weird
random reply but rip
sounds like you KO'd an untamable one
any mods?
the only reason i can remember for it being untameable involves multiplayer
have a screenshot?
weird, it shouldn't be untamable normally
did you not saveworld
No, i uploaded the noglin from genesis, i got to fjordur, downloaded myself, got the the portal, and as soon as i downloaded the noglin my game crashed, and i was back at the part where i had to spawn in
⚰️
lmao
moschops are passive tames
he need a rare mushroom
God fucking dammit, now i gotta do it al fucking over again
I don't know how I mixed up stegosauraus and moschops don't even ask lmao
soo there are ko tames and passive tames, KO tames require a well a KO, Passive tames just put the food they want in last slot and feed?
Passive tames can also mean they need to kill your tames like troodon
If you want full taming effectiveness of the troodon, you need a few gigas
no, that's a special case
yep
Multiple special cases
Like desmodus
Oh wait
No nvm
yeah, they're going for unique taming methods with newer dinos
but the majority of dinos are either passive tames or KO, with a couple egg steals
troodons are a special special case since they're relatively old but still a pretty unique taming method
egg steals?
you just steal their eggs from their nest
wyverns, deinonychus, rock drakes, magmasaurs
Yeah, some you cant tame so you have to steal the egg
ohh so you can't tame a grown one so you just tame a newborn from the eggs
yeah
Mhm
Why? Just because you take away their children so you can enslave it?
"the poor dinos" which would bite your ass off given the chance
and they DO bite your ass off given the chance
plus it's potential children
not actual children
I mean they still care for their "potential children" I am pretty sure
Yeah, and if you do enough incest you get a special child!
I mean
you know normal taming
you're literally beating or drugging a dino to sleep and then shoving food into its mouth
Must stink for the guy who just lost a noglin bc their game crashed 🙄
damn this game is messed up in hindsight bruh
oh also efficient breeding is just multiple generations of incest
like 20-50 generations of incest depending on how strong you want your dino
so more incest = stronger dino?
Passive taming is the only way of taming that isnt weird
you shove food up their ass
Yes, mutations
why do dinos get tamed when you've literally beat them unconscious just because you fed them a little? they don't remember getting beat the fuck up
Yes, but it is what they want, + if they like it enough they become your pet
damn, ark dinos are kinky
well, not exactly
i think its because theyre very obedient
there was something explaining it in the lore
i just remember helena saying megalodons are more obedient than the family dog
lmao
I just put my campfire in water and was so confused why the light the campfire option isn't there lol
lol
wild guess but might be because youre underwater
just put sodium into it as fuel smh my head
what is sodium
the metal, sodium
do they make soda out of sodium?
no
it's reactive enough to burn underwater
actually it just reacts with water itself
there's videos of it on youtube I'm pretty sure
bruh are you like some chemistry professor
no,
this is like extremely basic knowledge, I suck ass at chemistry
i was always messing about too much in chem class to learn anything
dyknow how photosynthesis work?
that's biology
no
i am pretty sure photosynthesis release oxygen or smthing like that
that's chemistry bro
thonk
oxygen is the waste product to plants
it's only the waste product for photosynthesis, they still do use that oxygen
damn we turned this channel into a science lecture
are you being sarcastic or like actually asking
actually askint
they absorb it through the water then release what they done use while taking in carbon
bobster works as a plant in his spare time, ofc he is a reliable source for these topics
plants like nitrogen more
Bro did I walk into science class 💀
rain water is full off it, is why some guys store rain water, plants love it
I thought rain water was pure h2o
is never pure, unless u make it pure
Once it evaporates it is
when its a water droplet, it absorbs nutrients around it in very small quantities
I mentioned like 3 things vaguely related to science 💀
Bruh how does water in liquid form absorb nitrogen which is in gas form
.
because
gases dissolve
it absorbs molecules
screw rain water, all my homies use cow poop
.\
vaguely?
yes
how is that vague lol
what comes under vaguely
I use dino poop get on my lvl 💯
bruh just bcuz it's basic knowledge doesn't make it less science lol
idk it feels more gk than science
Rainwater contains small amounts of nitrogen in the form of nitrogen gas (N2), ammonium (NH4) and nitrates (NOx)
science doesnt mean complicated though
but plants mainly get nitrogen from the soil itself, not rainwater
Gases dissolve into gases.
and also into liquids
how do you think fishes breathe ⚰️
from their lungs lol
ah yes
fish lungs
My grade 7 science teacher never taught me this
giols
Gasses do dissolve into liquids looks at carbonated water under pressure
She told me the world is flat and the government is using clouds to hide it
And we all failed the science end of grade exam
there was never a big bang either, space has lasted for as long as time has lasted, time is relative to gravity
space has lasted for as long has lasted
anyway, back to basic science shit
I probably should've said like potassium, its reaction is way more violent than sodium
What if before the big bang there was another universe but it slowly decayed into nothing. Then the big bang brought things back again. Now our universe will slowly vanish then another big band brings a new universe in.
cover yourself in oil.
heard off the saying that things go in circles, so does the universe 😛
that's one theory
The universe is finite yet unbounded
So life is infinite
time is
Alright guyz let's talk about some more manly ark things. How to tame dodo pls tutorial.
shut up science > ark
Sheeesh. Front row nerd alert
I am pretty sure Alexander Vilekin tested the formulas of a cyclic universe and eternal inflation and said they were impossible
approved
How can he test them? Does he have a time machine?
the problem with that is there is never really any 'true' base line
and we need a base line to work from
I ain't no professor Physicist, go see his talk maybe you understand better
bro
this is an ark related discussion
Lol
we are breaking the rules here aight
i came in late, dont pass the buck onto me
There ain't no rules saying we have to keep channels on topic
i always do like to think what if its the other way
The mods get a ping every time a message is sent to this channel that doesn’t contain the word “ark” don’t you know?
eh I prefer physics over chemistry anyway
biology
Physics is easier tbh
Chemistry is torture
I mean idk what chemistry you're studying
Healing crystals is the easiest science to understand
yep
reminds me of this RO ad I've been getting
Ok so see. I moved to a new school halfway through the year so at the new school they already finished chemistry....
If oxygen didn’t dissolve into water fish would die
bruh I prefer PE class
Since when did fish have to breath. According to ark ocean creatures dont have oxygen stat
I prefer maths
Maths is easy
is
it's just trying to use the word "copper" as many times as possible
basically copper is a healing crystal
ok can you do the quadratic formula?
how is copper a healing crystal
Yes
through copper technology this copper enriched water will solve your coppery life!
the only thing its going to do is conduct electricity
You can recite it to the tune of “pop goes the weasel”
it's actually about how copper enriched water is good for immunity and health and shit
how, I have no fucking idea
What if they added copper to ark? Use it to make wires
don't need to if you just have it memorised
but copper magical science stuff!
there was a story of a guy who drank a silver potion or something and he turned blue
i forgot his name but you can probably find him
That happens every now and then
as in the smurfs?
I drink everyday.
There were organizations selling the same silver solutions during the pandemic as alternatives to the vaccine
💀
Turns your skin grey
a... what
like a potion with literal silver in it?
I remember when covid was a huge thing and people were staying locked in their houses and now nobody cares anymore
Colloidal silver that’s what it is
yea
silver isn't poisonous in small quantities I don't think
but I REALLY don't think that's a good idea either way
he had so much silver that he turned blue and he kept drinking it, i think he passed away from an unrelated heart attack
apparently it was perfectly fine lol
anyway I'll now eat my copper enriched meal sitting on my copper enriched desk watching copper enriched videos
Argyria is the medical condition
yep
While playing copper enriched games
funnily enough it probably worked
"copper enriched immunity boosting water" sounds sciency enough to buy
its copper though
Dihydrogen monoxide also seems scientific enough to buy
⚰️
multitasking is hard
Guys, why my wyvern doesn't use his special elemental attack while he's fighting with other creatures ?
Thousands of people die from dihydrogen monoxide every year
you need to enable ai special attacks in the radial wheel
there's a setting in the radial wheel
anyway my copper enriched meal is getting cold
I must eat it now
First ark related question in the past 20 mins
don't worry once my copper enriched immunity boosting meal is over, I'll move on to physics
Glad to get the job done
thats fine because as i said science > ark
Die from lack of it
Hey guys does the egg nest spawn along with the wyvern ?
I pass the science test due to my participation in this session
not always
Or can nests respawn ?
If you gonna rob an egg use oviraptor
What if I don't ?
all rendered wyverns aggro onto you
Uh no, I'm asking if the nest can respawn or not
copper enriched meal has been devoured
they respawn
It's a bit more fun to play catchup with the wyverns haha
Damn, evo event is extended but I start my job on the 22nd and have to save up for 3 weeks to get my pc… when’s the next event?
3 weeks damn. Took me 3 months to save up for mine
i make 400 a week and my pc is 1.3k+
Oh...that's why. My pc is 3k
I run 8 servers but somehow The Center keeps shutting down as soon as there's no one online. It also doesn't create a logfile or when it does, is just closes. Anyone an idea what that can be ?
Ever tried Ark science?
no
Well you should. Hella interesting
How do you do ark science
why doesnt my server show on the ark severs list when i select my survivors?
the only way i can join is via steamconnect: at my servers dashboard.
don't leave us hangin
Isn't that basically paleontology
Whats that channel about?
it's a joke name for a help channel
bob means noob in ark
probs as in problems
so, bobs with probs
noobs with problems
prepare to be directed to #bobs-with-probs by me
is it just me or are you no longer able to make map markers on PS4
why shoudlnt you level breeder dinos ?
because the levels don't pass down and just make it harder to check stats that will pass down
well you aren't going to be mutating them anymore so it's your choice
though I would prefer to breed them and imprint one for myself
but that'd require some serious dedication over 50 billion years to raise one
jesus
they're lying.
??
are u on official 1x
wat
on 1x it takes 10 days minimum to raise a giga lmfao
I mean
I said 50 billion years
if that's not obvious exaggeration then idk what is
well by the way they reacted it looked like they took it a bit too seriously
well,
I doubt they actually thought it'd take 4 times the current age of the universe to raise one dino
i'd raise a dino for 50 billion years if it was a bloodstalker.
Rather keep breeding save eggs and wait for event to raise
people can believe stupid stuff. it's best not to use hyperbole in this discord server because... well.. people dumb lol
So you say people in here all Bob
You can't just say someone's lying if they never meant it literally in the first place

which is why I said 50 billion years
normally I'd go for an exaggeration like a few years
i mean i kinda agree with rolan here, new players are stupid.
you aren't going to believe that no matter how dumbe you are
you said 50 billion years and they said "jesus"
50 billion
the age of the universe is 13.6 billion
We all bob when first time playing
you can make jokes and overexaggerations, no one's going to believe 50 billion years
i'd believe it took 5 billion years if yours truly said it
Then say he's not being literal, don't call him a liar
he's not being literal. it only takes 10 days
I dont think "hes a liar" or "hes not being serious" would have changed much
though keep in mind you'd probably cryo it if you can't imprint it overnight
so it could take more than 10 days based on how tryhard you are
I mean if it takes long enough that 50 billion years is a functional exaggeration then that's still a valid response of shock
when i am on this discord server, i try being as numerical and literal as possible because people would prefer an actual number.
and I would've given that number in like 5 seconds anyway
it was pretty much my reaction encountering official rates lmao
how did my 2 female dodos drop eggs without mating?
its unfertilized
they can lay unfertilized eggs
I mean one comes off as attacking bob's credibility, one is clarifying for someone who may not have caught the obvious exaggeration
you know, people eat chicken eggs all the time but its not like theres a fetus in them lol
shit yeah i've been skipping chemistry class
biology
how is that chemistry
bioloy
shhh
no
speaking of fertilization
i wont let it rest bioloy man

shhhhh
👀 👀 👀
fake
oh my god I love how my pfp looks in square form
the flagellum (the tail thing a lot of bacterias have) is a red flag to your immune system, and since none of the human cells have it, your body can freely attack anything with one
except sperm cells have one too so they have immunosuppresants to even have a chance to fertilize an egg.
it somehow looks even more traumatised
same
interesting
12d giga raise when it used to be 14d 
so how do sperm cells not make it so your... parts with sperm cells don't have any immune system
And current rates are.. 4x or 8x what they used to be
what
isn't xp 16 times or smth now
imagine a 2 month giga raise omfl
Ffs I can't even believe we played the true vanilla rates
the place where they're stored
does that not make them more susceptible to diseases and shit
nothing beats the 50 billion year giga raise B)
me out there raising gigas before the universe was even born
I don't understand how people play with them now, I can;'t imagine back then
When thatch was actually used
they live solely off of evo event
i dont think anything could infect a sperm cell since its job is to literally just swim.
no like the place outside the sperm cell
And until the universe has ended several times over
oh i get you now
me using thatch on gen2:
the testes
that's what they're called, right
I used to use thatch
then, the hyaenodon nation attacked
IM NOT MUCH OF A BUILDER I JUST WANT 
I'm not even kidding the last time I used thatch, hyaenodons broke my shit
Oh yeah I think a bronto got pissed and obliterated it
No Untameables ftw
YESSS!
yeah thats the mucosa. your body cant fight at its full power there regardless, but i'd assume either nothing bothers there or your sperm cellls can release chemicals to say theyre friendly

since then I just put my shit on a raised wooden ceiling
Hi :]
I see
i tamed so many fucking jellies today
Tamed 3 oil bugs and am living the best oil life
basilo superiority
it was only like 10 so not actually a lot but i loved it anyway because i made them fly
wait jug bugs do what
NU ones do
In vanilla there was a scrapped explosion attack

So NU bugs all have different explosions depending on what type they are
normal ones just fly away once you drink their oil, assuming you drink it.
basilos are so tanky that they just hug whatever's attacking you and you can ignore it for the next 5 years
i think were gas powered anyway.
They can only use their explosion when on full resources. Oil ones have a fire explosion!
I wish I could find element bugs
what happens when an oil and water one combine, does only their sack float up
Water bugs make you soggy. They drain your stam but you can't be set on fire.
You know how there's a 'Punch Bug' option on Water buggos?
oh right I haven't played in so long that I forgot what I used to get oil
What map?
Fjordur 
I used gachas, how could I forget
easy seed to oil
They might not exist
oil vein superiority
I like gachas
Oh there's a singular tiny ass spawner, they may as well not. I couldn't even find it. Want some INI for em?
I remember seeing them somewhere?
i need to make some for my own server..
if there was a way to afk to get crystal, what do you think would be the coolest way to do so (except gacha)
There's a singular area that uses the rad zone spawner, which they spawn in
Can't reject the 

look i bought nitro for a year i wanna make the most of it
Spam dem bugs
cant believe aad adds flyers but not my beloved bloodstaller
gacha
xD Don't worry I have some amount of self restraint when it comes to the emoji form
Snapshot15 again
can you make raw meat spoil faster?
gacha
nothing but gacha
I can spam them around your map?
split the entire stack
Crash?
Just lost connection/time-out. 😕 verifying files 
what about a plant species that looked like a big crystal plant that passively produces crystal, sometimes green gems and rarely blue gems?
so make them all seperate?
It just takes hours to verify and I hate it 🙃
Yepp
So only thing is I haven't explored the map enough to know the best places for them. Drake spawner would be out unless you're willing to use a test version of a mod, maybe the purple swamp area outside the drake cave, unless you know any better place?
did anyone else notice crashes after 348.3 update
gacha
PLANT
I feel like this is an exploit lol
gacha superiority
Nah it's on purpose
plants can sit in a greenhouse and look pretty
did anyone else notice crashes after 348.3 update
what about the plant though, actual opinions?
its meant to be a way to get the gems consistently without having to transfer off map for them
i want a crystal plant in my garden
Okay then teach me how to use devkit
purple area may make them more "difficult" to get, since shadows spawn there too, sounds good for me
did anyone else notice crashes after 348.3 update
Okay, first step: Download it
Second step: Cry
Third step: Cry some more
Fourth step: cast some magic spells, make a sacrifice or two, and then cry
i think you could cook up a nice map.
That adds a 5th step
wheres the cook salmon part
Step 5: Grab a fire extinguisher to put out my poor laptop
that's in the kitchen i already extinguished it
What kind of crashes? We won't know unless you give an example
cool cool
jokes aside, is it hard to use devkit for the first time, let alone make a map.
I dont even have the devkit, no space
someone times it just doesnt say anything but something it shows a crash error i will show ss when i get the crash
Share the first 5 lines here as a copypaste
but it says something like f/lostisland
can i send you a ss of the error in dm
I dont know how to read them, which is why I suggested copy/pasting the first 5 lines here
Assertion failed: PackageFileTag.CompressedSize ==
this is the first line
and the error thingy disappeared
Depends what you want to do, and the quality of the tutorial you're watching. And prior knowledge
In my case? I came in with effectively 0 prior coding experience, but I had an idea of how a lot of things worked from doing a lot of bugtesting for a modder over the prior year or so. I watched Zen's tutorials, and it wasn't too hard to pick up. Graphing is the hardest bit imo, though things can also be hopelessly convoluted (like attacks, alex wants me to do attack stuff and it's a fucking nightmare), resource harvesting, what can damage what structures.. pretty much anything related to damage
There's also a lot of.. quirks and general kit shit you need to be aware of that you really only pick up from other people. I'm infinitely grateful to the modders who taught and still teach me about a lot of those things

dodgy download. reinstall any mods that recently updated, or verify files
from the screenshots you've sent it looks like really, really complicated scratch
i didnt think i'd need to do anything but terrain
One day I'll try learning to read crash messages, probably not today
i installed primal fear and it started doing that🙁
It's visual based, that's where the similarity stops. But that did make it a lot more accessible for me, i struggle with text based
Check pins in #bobs-with-probs for how to properly reinstall a mod
I enjoy text based but I'm not very good at it
I want to be able to work with text based, but the visual form BP uses just is a lot clearer to me
I could make some very ok html a few years ago, thats where my ability stops
i honestly dont know how alex can use like 20000 different text languages
theres a reaosn they call him alex
lmfao
me neither, I can barely keep 2 languages' syntax in mind
what are you laughing at, i didnt even understand my own joke
the lack of elaboration makes it funny
me too, we have so much in common
and I want to learn like 2 more
and this Jugbug_Element_Character_BP_Tameable_C
all we did was turn off and on our camera and now its fixed.
I know python and AHK, AHK isn't even a proper language
I want to know java and C++
ahk doesnt sound like a language
Sounds like the noise you make when choking on a drink
Sounds like adk. so pretty much the same thing
thats what i was thinking of
the adk always surprises you
take a drink while waiting for a bp to open
and choke on your drink when you see the utter fucking spaghetti ass mess inside it
bonus points for it being your own graphing
dododex says i can immobilize wyverns only with chain bolas, but the wiki says u can also immobilize them with a net projectile. what is right?
so magmasaurs are immune to wyvern fire?
yep, you can even use it to make them breed
wiki
auto hot key
it has a proper syntax and everything
does putting a campfire in a thatch or wooden house burn it? I would guess so
no
super wood
I learnt of it from someone on this server actually
really handy
you can use it to simulate user input

@tough yarrow
(resending with ping in case you missed it)
You are awesome
Lmk if it needs any tweaking (too rare, too common etc)
Will do, loading the ini into my server now and I'll check after the verifying is finished
They'll definitely be on the rare side, may need to bump entry weight a little
I use it for auto clicking on ark actually
what do you autoclick
hmmm, okie dokie, i'll look in a bit, verifying is always slow
but using it for just auto left clicking is like using a super computer as a calculator
Yeah no rush! Im online for the next 10 hours anyway lol
Why can't my friend find non dedicated?
are you both on the same platform?
In the artifact of the hunter cave do I gotta jump down that cliff on my baryonyx? And after I do how do I get it back up?
You don't have to, there is a path to the right you can take. If you do jump down, that same path is where you will have to go up again
is the best berry to tame a herbivore mejoberry?
Yep
can I put a crop plot in water to make it always irrigated?
or do the crops die of over irrigation or wut
You should use it to simulate popcorning between an anky and a forge
I can probably do that but eh
I definitely would
Popcorning is the bane of my existence
It takes just enough effort to not be able to do anything else
I use it for healing rexes (mainly) with a snow owl, have like 1min 30 as “hold” ^^
Or rebinding keys works like a charm too, so you can use mouse keys for like hotbar items and stuff
Not really in deep stuff but it’s amazingly versatile
what's the easiest dino to tame that has a platform saddle
King titan
@placid sundial found 3 so far, this works for me 😁 thank you again!
I thought normal wood and fungal wood were basically the same
No problem!
I heard there's benefit of making smaller character. Are there any benefits of making bigger one?
Also is female having even smaller hitbox than a male?
smaller character means smaller hitbox. doesnt really matter for pve though
Would be interesting for ARK 2 stats affecting your body
or maybe no
It's good to have both look you want and stats you want
wasn't there a lf tribe chat?
Get a role at #role-assignment to access them
What are the official rates for PvP on the weekends
LFG PSN NA just want to play some official and have fun.
can you still effectively reroll imprints by cryopoding and uncryo a dino
Yes
yeah my friend was raising magma and was getting super unlucky it wanted ambergris after like 5 pod cycles so i was just wonderin
whats a good midgame base spot on scorched earth?
green obelisk
If anyone here is on PS4, if you play single player is there any way it can show all of the engrams like the kibble ones and the fria curry
where there?
look up lol. its hard to miss
Can anyone tell me if an r allo that tamed out at 5200hp is good?
Use the dododex stat calculator
That only works on wild
Hmmm
Not meant for tamed Dinos
Guys quick question is anyone having issues connecting or is it just me? I'm clicking "join ark" as need to check on babies on my playstation and it says connecting then nothing happens
The new jurassic pretty cool
how much hp exactly?
You on official?
Yeah its PSN having issues
Why does my game not let me into the select server screen?
Ohhh
My babies 😭
Im having issues keeping my watertower to stay irrigated on Vanaheim. Sometimes it works but sometimes it doesnt. I dont understand =/
Me to
Luckily mine are on a mae - but this is annoying, I restarted the game to get rid of the lag and rip
Yhhh that's a rip to my raid then
PSN is down atm
Ok
Mine are on tek gens but sometimes they are so greedy
How would you go find the beginner servers?
💯 I’m hoping its not long, and my tribemates in rn so hopefully he can stay on in case it needs refilling
Need people for official be good and be on constant
Playing on Playstation and i cant join Any server when i click on Join Ark it says associate and then the home screen opens again
And After a while it says Connection to Playstation Lost
I need Help 😭
seems like PS is down rn
Playstation Network is having some issues right now https://downdetector.com/status/playstation-network/
someone wanna play non dedicatet?
when should i go on the quest to tame a wyvern?
thats up to preference
are megalosuars good tames in pve?
on aberration, yes, outside of ab, sometimes.
someone german?
ye
Yeah
whats its exact hp
It’s around 5200 I’m not positive the exact since I’m at work
i can calculate an estimate if thats fine
Go ahead
ok give me a minute
around 36 points pretty average
and i cant farm anything
maybe like 36-38, was too lazy to include the health decrease from being an r variant
Ooooh ok than I think I’ll need to look for higher
where do i get silk from?
what map?
scorched

What range hp should I be looking for for an r allo
Ew
5443 or so hp
Is 1200 stam good?
let me check
around 38 points
if that stam is 1250 or so, thats 40 points which is good
I’ll check when I get home
you can calculate it yourself pretty easily using the wiki
Oh is that tame calculator
heres the formula
(x-y)÷z
x being how much your creature has, y being the base stat and z being how much you get per level
does not work for melee. melee is pretty cancer to do.
Ughhhhh math…
does anyone on here on steam play pve official
I gotta start using the stat app before I do a tame
Yeah
pre tame stats are pretty useless.
They have a stat calculator but it’s for wild only
yeah ik.
Set the level of the Dino to your dinos post tame
Still not meant for tamed dinos
Per level?
playstation back up yet?
why are all these argys so low level here?
yeah on the wiki you can look at a stat, lets say allo stam, and it has the base (250) and next to it how much stam you get per level as a wild not tamed, which is 25
the island, scorched earth, aberration and extinction all have absolute garbage level distribution, jts like 50x easier to find high levels on genesis or the free maps comparatively
How do I disable the option so that all the engrams do not appear when I go to craft something in my inventory?
as in folders?
no
? or the crafting requirements?
im not sure what youre askint for, do you want some of your engrams to not appear to save space?
am I the only one not able to log in on ps5?
ps is down rn
Good day everyone. I'm just starting out on Extinction. Running around (mostly for my life) I've spotted what looks like the remains of an arena or something in the "Sanctuary" zone. Would that be a good place for me to establish a base (single player)?
if it has water and metal, yes
Is it known when it’s back up?
idk.
Getting kicked of PS in the middle of being attacked. RIP
Who has a dismo
Some users are already back online, but try restarting and see.
Yhh but it's like an average of all so it's the best u can get
Not really. You can use Ark smart breeder if you have a laptop.
I see water in the arena thing. But I think it's too shallow because I can't drink from it. There's water close by though. It also has a city terminal in the center.
Ain't know about that my bad
ohh i know where you are, yeah thats a nice spot, theres some metal nodes hidden somewhere near you but idk how to tell you where they are
Good.. I got the map
I'll figure out the metal nodes. I just want to make sure I'd be (relatively) safe
yeah its relatively safe, watch out for the water in the weird twisty bridges kinda place near you though, can sometimes have kapros.
Ok. Thank you for your advice.
how many runes would i need to get to level 5 times
tryna get the air conditioner unlock
100 is +5, 200 is +10
im level 56
What do i do tho
you dont get any levels from it, you just get an increased level cap
oh
the runes itself do give you an xp boost like explorer notes
No
Oooh ... though I can't drink from the water directly, I can use irrigation pipes + tap to get water. Sweet!
what's a stronger drug than narcotics?
Tranq darts?
2 Narcotics?
Shocking tranq darts?
neurotoxin from jellyfish
^^^
that's in ark?
yes
narcoberries are the best, technically.
huh well I wasted all my narcoberries to make narcotics?
5 narcoberries add torpor over a longer period of time than 1 narcotic, which is a lot better on most dinos.
but if you want a stronger thing to knock dinos out neurotoxin is better
bruh this is meta stuff
you can use the narcoberry method and let a creature almost wake up then feed it like 1000 narcoberries. dude wont wake up for the next 100 years as long as it has the torpor to fit all those narcoberries (which is 7.5k torpor for 1000 narcoberries)
sure but nobody does that
but I guess narcotics don't spoil over time?
also helps that narcoberries are easier to get, many people and so do i carry a pocket herbivore to gather narcoberries mid tame and use them instead.
i personally like a cryopodded theri but any herbivore works
All the people I know use narcoberries over narcotics lol
what is a lystrosaurus useful for?
yeah thats a valid argument, hence why turn current narcoberries into narcotics for tranqs and then can use a herbivore to get narcoberries mid tame.
lystrosaurus provides a small short xp buff to any creature near it if you pet it
there is, if you ride a creature near one
called fast learner iirc
what are tranq btw?
tranq arrows and darts, up to preference which one you use but personally i think tranq arrows are better in 99% of scenarios
tranq darts are better
i dont think they are
Ammo for ammo, darts are better. However in terms of resource use, arrows may be
theyre so much more expensive for a very marginal difference.
tranq dart = 225 or so torpor : 3 narcotic
tranq arrow = 150 or so torpor : 1 narcotic
full 70 dura on longneck = around 15700 trpor
full 100 dura on crossbow = around 15000 torpor
remember that each dart is effectively 6 gunpowder and 1 metal, which adds up in the long run
well ur talking about primitive of these so 🤷♂️
torpor scales with damage so nothing really changed
dura i can get but longnecks are more expensive to repair anyway
do I use a pocket herbivore to gather mejoberries mid tame too?
what is a common pocket herbivore tho
theris, but really anything works.
horses are nice since they double as your tranqing mount with he buck kick
bro do you like memorise which are used as pockets and which aren't, which are herbivores and which aren't
i have 3k hours in this game, of course i know what gathers berries well and what doesnt?
bruh what if I just started
what does that change
yes and i just told you theris and equus are good as pocket herbivores
A roo works really well if you are just gathering berries too lol
as i said, any decent herbivore is good enough.
Probably would say a horse or unicorn is better though, it helps a lot with the taming and makes it really cheap
agreed
Plus a melee capped horse in pvp is freakin hilarious
knock the consciousness out of players in a single kick
Yup, and their Dinos in like 3
pls help connection timeout
You're not Playstation right?
does the wiki have where a dino usually appears? like next to a beach or in snow or stuff like that
im pc pls help connection timeout
Not appropriate at all
wiki has almost everything
Yup. There are spawn maps for each map
does a thorny dragon farm wood?
Yeah
mine doesnt collect any wood
Their attack hitbox is a bit weird sometimes
did you screw up resource gathering
Maybe you have resource collection turned off?
Bs I used a tp it spawned me in water and let me reconnect now won't again. Going to lose my stuff
ps servers are down rn
Damn DC ridiculous
my other dinos farm just fine
try restarting, some are abke to join
Id there a better way to travel from Ark to Ark? Without uploading stuff/ your survivor
Like a mod or so
dont think so
restarted
Ugh I wish the updates would fox stuff and not make it worse
still nothing
Fix
did you check resource gathering on your thronyd ragon
i just tamed it, why would i turn it off
you tell me
this game is just so fucking bugged
i thought theyd put some work in it over the years
the only thing that got better is performance apparently
I just deleted and re installed the game will my stuff still be there?
most likely
Can u still tame fjordhawks with ovis?
yep
someone has the same problem as a friend who doesn't let him enter official services small or apocalypse can only enter non-official just say connection time lost for 2 months already
I bred a ton of ovis just for that. If you raise sheep and imprint on them then leave them to level up. And put all the levels into health. That will let the fjord hawks get more bites from one Ovis
Yeah but i think they don’t get any taming percentage from tames anymore
I killed an ovis and a hawk ate it and got none
how do I make only a specfic dino I tamed follow me and the others stay where they are??
Is putting maewings close together gonna be a problem?
whistle follow one
Is putting maewings close together gonna be a problem?
no
Nah
theres whistle follow all and whistle follow one, use the latter
Unless they messed it up again. Might need to wait on an update again for it to work
is their a good fishing spot in asgard
Theres loads on YouTube
tryna catch some fish to tame a shadowmane
I can't find it in the keybindings whistle follow one?
theres a whistle wheel you can use, idk how to make it appear on pc
Look it up on google
ok so the nearest dino to me is gonna follow me after whistle follow one?
do u think i’ll be able to do alpha brood with 2 velos and 1 turtle my turtle has 150k+ hp and my velos 1,7kmeelee
does anyone have a good ini that doesnt see the leaves on trees but can see pearls and berry bushes or is that not possible, dm me and lmk.
Ehmmm don‘t risk it
ye i’m gonna breed some more velos
so i was messing around in creative and got grabbed by a karkinos and idk how to get out are there any creatures that i could spawn in that would kill the crab
If you're already in creative, just use the admin gun.
yeah i forgot about that but i killed it
Can anyone play with me I have not played in 5 years
I'm breeding shadowmanes for the first time. And the 2 gen(stats I want) the female has that top fin when males should only have that. Am I missing something?
Can you show pls? Dm
How do you find the beginner servers?
Type beginner
Aight. I'll try that out.
guys if I die twice does my stuff from the first death go?
oh nvm
it's just impossible to see
hold H, brings up the extended hud and shows all nearby green beacons
Question.. Does anyone have any idea why my cloner would be dissapearing? It's a water cloner on 1 tek foundation and when I come back to check on clones next day it has been gone 2 times now
Any tips on noglin? (Again)
I have been afk for 30 minutes, not a single noglin
not really much you can do except afk
Love it
how to go underground with basilisk
Jump
can someone help me
Can someone play with me?
are coelcanth to small of a fish to give to shadow manes
no
ok
fish itself doesnt matter, like at the size
than tf why did it said fish to small
Because you got a small coel but not all coels are small
oh
you want around 2.0x size fish
so is .07 0.9 ok?
No
those my last three fish
thats miniscule
uh can go back to fjordur get more fish than comeback
or what the timer before the tame start to go away
They only accept 1.0+ iirc
You want 2.0+ for the effectiveness to not drop
thank you perry
no, when I was taming the shadowmanes I had to go back to the main island to catch the fish, in Asgard I couldn't find any bigger than 1.3
and fish generaly are rare in asgard
So the oviraptor has a chance to decrease the mating cooldowns right? Does that mean if I have two I could have more chances of it decreasing
How do i get 150 creatures on the island
It's at 1
Are the servers back up?
But Max lvl is 120
then try Command "setdifficultyvalue 5"
?
What will this command do
Do I have to do it every time I enter the world
yes 😟
there is a pin in #bobs-with-probs that you can follow to not have to do the command.
there is a checkbox on consoles that work for wild 150s
max difficulty.
but there's other way i heard about, you can change the difficulty level in the game files and then you won't have to enter this command every time (unfortunately I don't know how to do it and it wroks only on pc)
I dont want to mess with the game files
its a configurable file. its how you are supposed to do it. there is a pin in #bobs-with-probs
What?
What pin bruh
does battle tartare work on tames?
Do tames shoot guns?
Yo whats up with the prim plus servers
prim+ is very broken
Why
Fair enough
likely won't. ark 2 is coming out and ark 1 is spaghetti code. fixing stuff might break other stuff 
if i host a non dedicated via steam version, could my friend playing on xbox join?
no, steam is not crossplay with xbox.
its steam with epic/stadia
xbox with win10
playstation is alone.
non-dedi on steam/epic/stadia is essentially not crossplay as well.
Where are some giga spawns on crystal isles
quick question.
is that intend that players can tame those Feroxes on Fjordur? I saw they are lvls up to 500 and tameable.
If we tame every single spawn on the island will the server crash and did I just beat the game?
You can probably only have like 200-500 tames out at a time
yeah it’s a case of them spawning in a cave whilst being tameable
not a mistake as it hasn’t been patched yet
so its going to stay like that? I jsut want to know if should I block that cave till they fix it if at all.
doubt it’s gonna be fixed
doesn’t seem to be a bug
thx !
can I close the game while downloading fjordur or does it always open in the background while downloading
i need help so im hostng non dedicated to play with my friend and we rejoin after 2 hours to find out the male rex we tamed changed genders to female
Hey Guys, anyone know how to check wild stats after its tamed?
without mods or admin?
yo primal fear nerds, can i hatch fertilized eggs in the soul terminal
soul terminal will incubate them if enabled. you need to take them out and give them the proper temperature.
unfert egg can be generated if enabled as well.
@proud grove with mods, admin is not playing on the server. S+
do you have Awesome or Super Spyglass?
anyone down to chill and do some ark
@proud grovesadly no .
where do i enable it
You can download Ark Smart Breeder from Github. There's even a discord for it.
but i tried that, its not gonna show me the wild stats, only the stats i have atm, or im really bad at doing it 😛
there is an ini setting and an option on the terminal itself in the radial menu
If you export it right after you tame it or before you add any levels, it will show the base stats
@proud grove do you know where i need to place the numbers for it to be shown?
export the creature in-game by holding E, i think options, export dino option.
import it in ASB.
stats should be extracted. wild + tamed.
just make sure you have multipliers configured to what your server has.
All you do is export a dino from Ark, then Last Export in Smart breeder. No need to do anything else if you just want to see base stats.
what are the reasons an industrial cooker isnt getting irogetaed
Did they ever make it so u can transfer hard ele, I know they discussed it.
No intake. Broken connection.
Those are the inky ways
is it from a water tank or intake from a natural water source?
lake
@proud groveits missing atm a folder where i can import my exprted data from .
folder?
when i click Import exported data after saving it in the game.
its going to something like a map
click on Last Export
and did you map the Smart Breeder to your export folder?
anyone trying to join lost island and imeadiatly getting sent to the crytal isles dlc please help
you need to enable it in the terminal in the radial menu. it takes a bit for it to start when putting an egg 
yeah, just drop it. it still needs the correct temperature tho
is apex better than alpha
yeah
its toxic, alpha, elemental, apex, fabled, omega, celestial
I think
elemental has 2 stages tho. not sure where they go
there is this wiki https://primalfear.wiki.gg/wiki/Primal_Fear it says its the official primal fear wiki :P
