you can always have a couple smaller pieces for your base plus a little more dinos out than usual if theres gates
I have a problem, ok so a couple days ago I stoped playing ark, but now I think a wildcard employee is stalking me. Any ideas on what I should do?
Maybe you should call Chris Hansen?
Well that depends. Which wildcard employee is it?
a) Doubtful
b) If you really feel your life is in danger get the hell of discord and call 911.
ark wont let me ride exo mek during rockwell boss at the final laser beam,,,,
yea
So I am running scorched earth for the first time and I keep getting my procoptodons killed. Is this just me?
they seem to get stuck in combat quite easily at least that is what keeps happening to me
80k dust
Define “get stuck in combat”
Speaking of stuck Im stuck and need help
Um. Ok. Elaborate.
Nah nvm mod that put that laughing emoji wanna remove my messages
Your message in unofficial discussion was removed as it was not server setup help and you had already asked here.
Yeah you can ask it here
He’s stuck in somebodies base
Oh i can’t help with that. Punching yourself to death or praying they get online and open a door. Burn stam and starve to death, eat poo.
Dang maybe I could help
XD yeah and if you’re on an official server and you spawned inside the base you can report it via #reporting-players
XD im not.
Them poor official bastards
Rid the evidence
Keeping the channel on topic. If you still need help, then share your ingame issue.
Though STP just helped.
Are there any mods out there that allow splitting stacks in an inventory that isn't the players?
smh. who would it be
omg thatd be so helpful
tho only for spoiled meat
and at that point why not add a spoiler mod
There are mods that have meat spoilers
i know eco's primordial does
though i dont really need it anymore with combined constant hunting and a desmo WHEEZE
also, at what rate does metal ore turn into bars using a plain refining forge? 2:1?
not quite the right channel but
Normal ore is 2:1. Scrap metal is 1:1
No it doesn't, it just gets faster
doesnt the tek forge do 1:1
Provided you have s+, yes.
As not everyone uses mods and they didn't ask about s+, I didn't feel the need to add it in.
20x faster though
ah mk. thought there was a way to do it didnt know it was an only S+ thing as thought if you got that established they would make it better
Just mods only
tho the reg tek forge does the metal to ing basically instantly right?
there is no tek forge without mods
Is there a friendly fire setting for tamed dinos?
I dont believe so
PvEDisableFriendlyFire=true
That is only for people. I dont think there is a way for a tamed dino to hurt other tamed dinos in pve settings. \
You can unclaim the dinos in pvp settings and do damage that way
I don’t know but they are following me lol
doubtful
Well obviously I’m joking
tamed dinos can't hurt other tamed dinos but that allows players to hurt tamed dinos
(pretty sure the setting needs to be false tho)
oops ping, sorry
arent lightning wyverns able to hurt tribe stuff?
I don't think so
either way that would be regardless of rules/settings and doesn't count lol.
Yea all vanilla (non crystal wyverns), magmasaur spit and I believe basilisk too can hurt and kill your own Dinos in both modes.
Magmasaurs can even destroy your own structures so be careful what u click near your home ^^
have done that before
half my base went up in flames
oh my. note to self never get a magmasaur
Yes I played with magmasaur spit next to the(luckily only decor) mansion I built out of wood and I blew half of it away until I realized it damages my own structures lmao
just don't put metal on it and no problem anymore
ingots I mean 
if you are using it as a furnace (not sure why) take the saddle off to make sure 😂
tbh havent tamed one yet and probably wouldnt have either way. to me they seem like a waste of space as i wouldnt ever make use of them
stryders kinda made them pointless
magmas are too endgame. although if you don't have gen 2 they are still worth it.
as a miner anyway. they still can destroy any structure
never had a stryder either. im broke
lol
if you live near metal nodes you should get a magma, they are better than an anky
wont play gen 2 or any dlc map until it comes to switch.
you have PC role
you play switch? gonna be a while to get magmas 😂
play switch and steam
took a break for years from switch bc well yeah pretty obvious but update... woo
gonna be 6 months after October
as the DLCs are gonna be releasing every 2 months.
yeah. luckily tho both gen1 and gen2 release together iirc
if they are thats nice 
heres my question
they are both genesis but they are different maps with different things, dinos, and missions right?
and gen 2 missions are alot more fine tuned and less "do this alone and you won't ever beat it"
they are different maps yeah 
for the most part, I believe so for the missions
some missions are hard alone even on gen2 tho lol
luckily ill have a tribe to back me up as well on switch but mostly for if i wanted to do SP wanted to know how easy itd be. (by easy i mean if i could actually do it after putting forth the effort versus have heavily leveled mutated gigas max lvl kibble tamed and still have issues due to them taking too much dmg when raged / killing themselves during brute fights)
what are gachas and how do you get them
they are a tame that when given resources they can turn them into other resources. they have a set pool of items they can create (a pool for each gacha that is taken from the bigger pool of all possible gacha stuff) iirc they are an extinction dino so prob on there maybe in the city/around it (never played on it sorry)
Gachas can be found outside of Extinction, btw (e.g. on Fjordur).
They're kind of an early game tame, and might provide access to resources/mats you can't otherwise get.
(Not just items)
they are in sunken forest
Need ark dlcs
then buy them
Season pass and the genesis pass.
They're also on fjordur in the asgard realm.
Vanaheim realm as well. There's even a kind of Gacha lake resort there.
I haven't explored vanaheim too much, it was pretty but not one of my favorite areas
gachas are also in the realms on fjordur
Is there a way to keep two incomplete stacks of one material from combining when transferring to another inventory? If I had two stacks of 20 wood, is there a way to keep those stacks from combining into one stack of 40 when I move them from my character's inventory to say, the smithy?
vanaheim and ppppossibly asgard, i know for sure vanaheim at least
Nope, it all chunks together in everything but your own inventory.
And there's no way to stop it from doing that?
(Asgard and Vanaheim are realms, btw)

Anyone able to help me with this error
Whoah
Everytime I try to join a server I get this
I don't even think there is a mod for that. Some stack mods will once, but only if they are loaded onto an existing save. The stacks will continue with new stacks separate from the vanilla stack.
Have you verified your files?
Idk, how do I do that
Steam or Epic?
?
Are you using the steam version or the epic games store version?
Steam
@plain stag Dang. I don't suppose you have any solutions for keeping Zero Point Energy (from the Stargate Evolution mod) from disappearing if its anything more than a stack 400?
Steam>library>ark>settings>properties>local files>verify integrity
You'd be better off contacting the mod author or checking the mod page for bugs or discussions. Maybe even the discord if they have one.
I dont see local files in properties
It might be under another option, but it will be there somewhere. It will say verify integrity of local files or something similar. The steam updates may have changed the settings around.
Somewhere in properties?
@plain stag Yeeeeaaah, I have a feeling that bug isn't a high priority to fix, given it's been around for a while. The guys over there said something about increasing the base game's stack size, but I'm not 100% sure what they were talking about.
Should be, or just under one of the settings options. I'm not on my pc at the moment.
The pins in this channel can walk you through stack sizes. You'll just need the item name from the mod.
Mind if I dm you a picture?
You can yeah
@hallow musk Steam Library>Ark(left-click)> Properties> Local Files> Verify Integrity of Game Files
The problem is there is no local files in properties
why do my fence posts keep ending up misaligned when I try to join them in a full circle?
geometry, mostly
so theres nothing I can do about it? Probably nothing can fit through, but I might fill it in with some pillars
Kinda hard to resolve over text, tbh. I assume you have played with the rotation points, and tried different angles?
I had to replace a bunch because they got reversed on the turns somehow and the walls were snapping to the wrong side, but they are all the right way now
building in ark is a pain in the ass anyway
hey I have 8 deinonychus's but they aren't getting a pack boost?
you must ride the highest lvl among the group and buff them
how do I buff them?
its either X or C button
thanks!
np
Might be a bad question but what are gigas used for in pvp? Fighting other gigas if the defending tribe throws them out?
Killing anything and everything. As well as raiding bobs thatch,wood, and stone beach house.
is there any websites that can tell me what stats are high for a specific creature and level?
There’s an app
Dododex
For tamed creature you use Ark Smart Breeder
is there anyway to make dinos gain more than 82 levels to level up ?
Mods can. There might be a setting as well.
do you know of any mods that do that?
I don’t know if mods that specifically do it no. But I played a mod called the hunted that either removed it or raised it
one weird thing I noticed, I had a level 115 character when I transferred it to scorched earth
but now its a level 100 character somehow
??
We talking the levels we can apply to the creature after it is tamed right, the ones gained from xp?
assuming you're talking about the levels ninjakiller mentioned, it's actually 88, and can be increased through vanilla ini editing
ooo what do I need to edit?
it's rather complex, and i haven't done it myself, but i know other people that have
i believe eclipse has done it before
so everytime I drop a cache there is normally a 30 minute decay time, but on my scorched earth playtrough its only 5 minutes suddenly, why is this the case?
might be a scorched earth thing, I'm pretty sure some spoil timers are shorter on there
oh boy building in scorched is painful
barely any wood at all and getting clay is also frustrating
got a question, someones literally blocked 3 pathways up towards red ob fjordur making it so you have to pretty much walk back round the entire island to get to red ob, is it worth reporting?
You on PVE?
yeah, i mean i get they built their base in the meeting point of the three paths but they behe gated the paths off so you literally have to walk back round the entire volcano island to get to red ob
Well since you can on PVE you can report it, as what they are doing it is just making it unfair to anyone else on the server. Now I can not guarantee anything will be done but at least it be noted to WC
fair enough, im gonna try again and ask them to leave the gates open or unlocked but i ask in chat and get some foreign response every time so i dont think they understand me
Hello, I have a big problem, when I enter the server, my friend is falling from the server
This error is appearing for him: Lost/expired connection to host
I wonder, is it worth making medbrews with plain cooking pots instead of an industrial one?
are arthropleuras useful in pve in any way?
nope :/
nope
google translate it to find what language they speak then say it in their language
how many desert loot crates can spawn on the map at once in scorched?
and how fast do they respawn
do inis cause issues?
do chem benches work on aberation ?
Yes, chem benches work everywhere
You have it powered with a generator and gas inside the chem bench too right?
Lost/Timedout connection to host whenever trying to transfer on official
I have verified integrity of gamefiles multiple times
It always crashes at “gen2_Sky_[some random numbers]”
yeah i aint a bob
dont work if its touching water even in the slightest
no prob ahaha
hey can i get someones help with this im new to pc and i just bought ark and when i go onto unofficial theres like only 100 servers and it takes 1 hour just to load any more servers theres no 50x or 25x servers there literally nothing i want to play can anyone help me with this?????
get the ip for them, search online
When I try to put a Canteen into a S+ Metal Tap, it breaks, becomes red and is not repairable. Tried with vanilla Tap and it works fine, however, the broken Canteens are still unrepairable
Yeah, s+ does that sometimes. Best option is to not do that, I dont think there is a fix

Soo I am getting this error and idk how to fix it, I have already tried verifying
do you have mods downloaded?
GPU error
multiple possible causes from low end GPU, driver needs updated, or too high game settings.
oh hi sno
How do I update my driver, I have been getting an error saying one of my drivers is working also
eh idk if it still works but you used to be able to press winkey and page break at the same time to shortcut to your system properties
otherwise you'd just have to search a guide for your card
If there's software for your GPU running normally there's an option init for doing driver updates
Nividi experience center has update option
I got GeForce Experience
Also am I meant to download mods before joining the ark server?
no
Same thing could not remember if it was nividia or GeForce in the name
Nvidia makes GeForce cards. Nvidia be the company and GeForce be the brand.
I updated my drivers and still no luck

What the fuck
you restarted your PC after updating ?
Brb
it's a output device error still. could still be the gou, or the unreal engine itself. you said you tried verifying but you can try to copy your save data so you don't lose it, then do a fresh install
Is the drive "ene.sys" important bcs it cant be loaded
you may of downloaded the wrong driver. make sure if your on a 32 bit system you get the 32 or 64 bit etc
I didnt download any driver?
yeah nah that error is not related to the gpu at all.
BRUH
what is it then
game world fails to initialise when loading the map. typically bad assets or mods, but if you've already ran validation then no idea what you can do
So I cant play Ark?
going to suck but try a full reinstall.
Do you have mods?
no
is it an existing savefile?
So you're not actually played anything yet?
nope
you don't have any saved progress?
I have yet to get into the actual game
What map are you trying to load?
Have you installed ragnarok from steam?
No..
Journey through an expansive 144 sq. kilometer environment where elements from The Island, Scorched Earth, and all new biomes are combined to bring the ultimate survivor experience. Whether tackling the extreme cold atop the highest mountains, harvesting resources from an active volcano, or just searching for that perfect base location, Ragnarok...
download the map you're trying to play before trying to play it
similarily i'm assuming The Island will load fine, because that's installed with basegame
When I click download it just launches ark??
it does that when downloading for some reason
when i installed it i joined while it was mid-download, and fell into the water under the map because there was foliage but no mesh lmao
lol
so yeah just give it a while, idk why it's like that but it is
any way to not take fall damage everytime I jump with the procoptodon?
it's so annoying, it even takes fall damage on flat ground
How do i get the max lvl for dinos above 150? I've seen ppl on youtube have dinos spawn over 150
See pins for OverrideOfficialDifficulty
Could anyone help me with this. If not thats fine but I'm not sure where to find the ini pin, i don't do to much w computers other than use them to play ark and some other games.
Any advice for game just not launching

Hey guys so I’m standing at the fabricator with my obby and cement paste in it, but it still says can be crafted at fabricator in red
Even though I’m in the fabricator already…
I can’t send a picture but I’m guessing you guys know what I’m talking about
did you turn the fabricator on
Right before u land hop off the tame
yeah thats what ive been doing but its so annoying
one thing I always wondered is, why is the whistle selection key bound to the same key as the "you follow me" and then there is another whistle selection key on apostrophe by default which acts differently?
Can u breed magmasaurs with fire?
Yes
What about heat
Like the thing a magmasaur can do when charging its searing split
Like it sets things on fire but doesn't dmg them
I think its just wyvern fire only.
depending on the map I'd just use lava tho.
Can allos go into the rag boss arena?
Allos can go into any boss arena
allo bleed doesn't work on boss
just a heads up.
Pls help me
My ark downloaded shit tons of mods after jouning server and wont work
wdym "wont work"?
Pls dm
It crashes within five mins
of trying to join the server?
did you verify your files?
Of opening any game. My own sungle player or a server
Its still downloadung
How
so you are still downloading mods?
iirc you cant go into anything while mods are installing.
Yeah
go to the mod pages and unsubscribe from them
I dont even know these mods
hover over your steam name go to content and then click on workshop items. go to subscribed
and then press unsubscribe
doesnt matter if you know them or not you can do it either way. my rule of thumb is SP or official and only unofficial if you have checked the server out (found it on discord/online) and the mods it has. otherwise you can end up with hours of download time depending on the mods, you can end up with no space left when downloading them, or realize you dont want to go to that server
K
can someone help with modifying my server ini?
i want to add the "-ForceAllowCaveFlyers" syntax, but when i tried just typing it into the game user settings ini it didn't work
You shouldn’t have to do that. Allow cave flyers is a setting that’s adjustable in either Ark or your server host settings
is there any way to like reset your attributes
Take a look at the recipes in a cooking pot
ok thanks
I assume you tried adding it to launch options/cli?
I did, yes, but i added it in wrong, i figured it out though
wait are days longer on scorched earth or something? I cant find any info about this anywhere but it seems like they are
what are chibis and how do u get them
famillers, pets, vanity animal
easiest way to get one is to load into abberation for the free bulb dog. otherwise they are mostly event items. you may be able to get a cool one with the upcoming fear evolved event
once you have one and equip it - and kill an alpha dino it gains xp, once it gets maxed on do your character gains 5 levels while you have it equipped
Chibis give 5 levels, not 4. They’re also permanent, so not ‘while you have it equipped’
Also since when does aberration give a free bulbdog chibi
whoops. mistype for the 4 my bad
and yeah. they aren't permanent. but as long as you have The chibi you leveled equipped you have the levels no?
hmm been several years but I always assumed the free bulbdog came from abberation. possibly one of the other DLCs.
They’re definitely permanent. Once you have a chibi to lvl 6 you don’t need it at all anymore
ah well that's nice then. I always made a point to keep mine cause I figured that's how it worked. makes it easier
to equip the bulbdog chibi you must own abberation. which I assume probably points to that's where it came from.
the only free chibis are shadowmane and noglin from genesis all others require events
I get a bulbdog everytime I die with my survivor items
shadowmane requires the genesis chronicles
Thats… what all chibis say
All chibis that are from paid dlcs say that for their respective map
maybe it was a console reward like the scortched earth sword
I've never spawned with one 
I dunno. I ... just get them with the default stuff that I throw on the ground lol. maybe someone else remembers
wiki also doesn't mention spawning with the bulbdog chibi. only noglin
I don't think I get a noglin
make sure you have all 3 parts to genesis installed
three parts ?
xbox has the permissions in a separate one 
Can’t find any info on google or yt either lol
I'ma bout to yeet myself off a cliff and record it
I'd say if you were spawning with the bulbdog chibi, its a bug lol
I definitely do lol. aight hold up
... Xbox not even on. may take a minute
hmm I get a bulbdog mask and a poglin chibi. but I swear I used to get a bulbdog. I'll ask my buddy when he gets up because we legit had the discussion that he lost his and I killed myself and gave him one
can u clone a clone
How can I defend my tribes base from troodons?
Surround it with spikes or walls
Or dedicate your life to killing every troodon on the server

How big is the building limit on motorboats?
What's the wistle command to make my tames not attack my target?
Passive or neutral
Passive if they are attacking and you want them to stop immediately
hey how do i lower the time it takes for baby dinos to want care?
also how do i know what kind of mutation i got
is there a way to set up my server to automatically turn off/on at certain times? i.e. server will be paused/down from say midnight to 9am every day? it's only me and a few friends and we only play for like 5-6 hours in the afternoon.... and sometimes real life gets in the way so we can't play, but it's a bit of a hassle having our food rot while we're not online, especially in the feeding troughs for our dinos and risk having our dinos starve to death, or if we set them to wander, we potentially lose them or have to spend a long time trying to find them when we log back in
if you self host it you'll be turning it off with the rest of the computer?
So my partner accidently deleted a save file that we had and it's not in the recycling bin, is there a way to recover everything that we had?
I'm afraid not
He's really beating himself up about it 😦
it's not self hosted, it's thru a server provided, i could i guess just manually turn it off/on but that's somewhat tedious
depends how he deleted it
was it through the menu, or the files?
The files
What did he delete, exact]ly?
He wanted to restore a older save to bring one of our dinos back, and deleted one of the files I don't know exactly
I need to know exactly, because that will determine if it is or isn't recoverable.
He deleted all of the files except the "LostIsland.Ark" file
so the map is still there, but not your characters or tribe data. you've got the important one
so if you check that file, you'll probably find your base and dinos still there
..however he's also deleted all the backups that ark makes of that file so if something goes wrong with it there's no fallback. make a backup of it right now
Okay thank you
I'm trying to mutate some dinos for the first time but the resulting dinos just lose stats?
people normally breed until they get 2 identical dinos with max stats from the original tames and then breed those for mutations, since all new dinos will have the best stats
Yeah but ive watched some videos on breeding and they didn't lose stats like i did
I use dino storage v2 and they just lose stats for no reason and are a much lower level
That’s because they have a matched pair. When you breed, the baby inherits either the mother or fathers base points in a stat. So if you have a female with 32 melee and a male with 45 the offsprings melee is either gonna be 32 or 45. This happens with each individual stat.
are days longer on scorched earth or something? I cant find any info about this anywhere but I've heard they are
How do I make floating turrets
my cryofridge was out of power for about 3 or 4 days...and now all the pets that were in it are dead...is that normal? I thought they would be good for 30 days with no power cause thats how log the cryopods are good for when charged
If you open a unpowered cryofridge it will kill everything inside
I’m sorry for your loss
if it's been 30 days since it was last opened with power, that kills it
if i had not opened it and powered it first would they have lived?
Yeah. Assuming the cryos still had charge.
you didnt read what i wrote
last opened with power
yeah it was powerd for sure 4 days ago
a cable had broke in that time though
it only calculates charge when opened, so if it's out of power when it's opened, then 30 days pass, and it's still not been opened since, then it assumes it was out of power the whole time
it doesn't matter if it's powered off 2 seconds before you open it, if it hasn't been opened with charge in 30 days, poof.
they had been opened a week ago or less and all was fine...fully charged
but i was away for 4 days. and a cable broke while i was out
good thing i'd left a lot of pets NOT in the cryofridge
i lost some but its ok.
Yeah since I learned of this I don’t use cryofridge for anything but empty’s until I get tek gen
It’s to easy for a wire or outlet to break
good point
so i have one cryofridge i did not open yet.....when i get power going here in a minute...those pets should be ok right?
also....i put in new cable but its not powering the new cable....how do i reset the power to power everything?
how do i make the power go through these cables? two had broke and i replaced them... there is a pic in building screenshots.
gonna guess your using mods
nope. none. kinda a new player
i used a flex cable over the area and was able to fix it. the calbe is messy looking but it works
the cables should power once connected. visually they look connected. I can't tell what pieces your using. the one unpowered cable closest to the powered cable (the yellow) destroy it, then replace it with a flexible cable. see if it snaps to both
you type faster than me. gg.
yeah for the most part flex cables are the way to go except end points.
cryofridge recharges cryopods. that's about it. if I understand correctly and it became unpowered your good. pods still last for like 2 weeks on their own
sounds like you dont actually play the game. pods should be good for 30 day fully charged. =-=
I play on a private server. we use our own custom settings so it's hard to remember specifics sometimes such as how long a cryopod lasts on official while uncharged
either way the point is the same.
no need to be passive agressive
sorry. thanks for the info. yeah...im just looking for info for regular server. i'm still a little upset i lost some pets. 20 were my best shadowmane. i have others i can breed again to get those. but am still sad.
what setting changes cryo charge time
afaik there's no setting to change cryo life
honestly i'd recommend the dino storage mod (instead of cryopods), because cryoes are a mess
what is that and how do i get it?
one of them. or none of them. you'd know better than I.
not gonna lie I haven't logged in for a month.
question was if a cryofridge dies does he lose dinos.
answer no
even if a cro lasts 30 days I wouldn't trust that all your pods were fully charged when it lost power.
do you lose dinos if fridge dies ?
no.
i thought none of them, which is why blaming it on unofficial settings seemed weird.
blaming what, my memory ?
and the initial question doesn't change what i asked about
think the conversation is going off in a tangent unrelated to the original question
sorry. cryopods don't last two weeks of fully charged.
very moot point to the overall question though
seemed to be rethorical to begin with no ?
do you lose dinos if fridge dies ?
no.
Yes, which is their whole issue
sorry, i missed the question mark.
if your cryofridge dies with dinos in it the dinos are still there with their remaining charge but the pods will begin to deplete. you'd eventually lose them I guess but it's not an instant action
so, it was just more of a snartass remark. gotcha
Well it depends on how long it's been off without power, as already explained
no kidding.
Another bug is if your fridge dies and you open it, the cryopods die instantly.
I'ma walk away at this point.
can dead cryopods with dinos in them be recharged, or is the dino within permanently obliterated
They can be recharged, but the dino dies if the pod dies.
So what they said above seemed to imply it was irrespective of time without charge?
How I understood it was closed for 30 days, no power before opening = dead pods, not 'opened at all without power= dead pods'
steam://openurl/https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1609138312
Press subscribe, move it ingame on the menu into the active mods section, and you're good to go
literally said "if I understand correctly" which is really just another way of saying if I understand what your asking correctly....
I try not to assume things.
if I was going down the wrong thought process I was literally asking him to tell me otherwise.
They'll still die after 30 days with no power, or they're supposed to. The bug I referred to is a really annoying bug itself.
Nah I mean the issue that causes pods to die despite the fridge being charged for most of the time
Oh sorry, I misread. Cryopods are wonderful most of the time. I just really hate the issues with them.
So like
Fridge is closed
29 days with power
fridge loses power
1 day passes
fridge is opened
Pods die
But from what OP said above- that they'd opened the fridge within the week, with power- it sounded like it killed the pods despite not long having passed, even if it were unpowered the whole time
Seems to just be the without power part, and the timing itself changes. Some people I've heard lose fridges that lost power for 1 day, some 2 weeks.
wow, i did not think it could get any worse
So to be clear- You could have pods with 30 days. Fridge loses power for one day, you open it, and they're dead?
That one happens too. It's not as common as the no power issue.
Sometimes. I can't even guarantee that you will lose the pods, because it's seemingly random.
yikes.
Why I stopped using pods and started using dsv2.
i started using DS because of how much easier it was to release things than having to go into my inventory every time lol
Mentioned preferring it over pods because of the bugs on reddit and instantly people with 20k hours were talking about never experiencing any bugs with cryopods. Congrats, you're lucky.
🙄
Soul gun

it's ark, if someone say's there's a bug, they're probably right lmao
I love it so much more
yeeeeeeessss
quick and easy breeder cleanup
speaking of breeding, the terminal, oml
NAT + advanced search + destroy all makes mutating SO much less of a headache
can process all the hundreds of babies you need in a matter of seconds
honestly +100 for DS even if cryos weren't buggy
..the fact that this is on a post about QoL makes it even worse
..the raptor icon was only sort of fixed
it's an issue with
a) modded creature who have class nulled
b) dinos in basegame that arent always loaded (think Crystal Wyverns on release, valg golems currently when not on valg)
they only 'fixed' it when they removed the valg ice wyvern, by adding a recovery array in the PGD for it.
which doesn't help mods unless they SPECIFICALLY ADD SHIT FOR IT
Also not even taking into account the dsv2 is almost fully customizable, whereas cryopods are not
that argument always annoys me because not only does it fix cryo exploits it can also be made WAY more punishing and balanced than cryoes
there's also literally a cryopods mirror config copy paste on the guide so it's a 10 second change..
if i had reddit i would love to jump into that and point out exactly this
Though I'd personally add that I'd highly recommend configuring KBD. While it's great, the reworks are a bit heavy for beginning imo, so i'd config it down to only the QoL tweaks. Dino fixes fits that role brilliantly without config though
I think I've had my fill for a bit. I've been away from reddit for months, only to come back, comment 1 thing, and have someone basically say I'm lying about an insanely common issue 😂
yeah honestly i usually avoid even looking at reddit, because then i feel annoyed if i don't comment something i want to, but i know it won't do me good if i start
Common issue, can be fixed with a mod that also adds tons of qol
"How dare you"
'How dare you suggest QoL and protection against a common bug on a thread asking for qol'
also interesting that there's several suggestions for ds there, but you got shit for it
Hey folks, getting prepped for Gen2 boss fight but have a question, does everyone in the tribe have to have done all the missions in order to get into the fight?
How much is it to run a 30 pop server
guys why when i hover on an item in my inventory it doesnt show the info anymore
i have the same problem bro
is it bugged or smth
idk
press g when urnin inv @molten falcon
ooo
Yes. Thats the reason exo meks are so valuable on off. Nobody wants to do gen2 missions so they just buy an exo from someone
Yeah I get that but it should be a combined effort amongst tribes not forcing everyone to do them when some either don't like them or can't do them. I don't want to do the fight myself and don't want to do everyone's missions for them 🙄
any way to get the explorer notes popups back when you open the crates after having found them in the past in other playtroughs? I always liked that stuff
yeah i'd love that
delete playerlocaldata.arkprofile, maybe, because i think it's also on the actual map save's end
Yes
i have a question in modded and in normal ark none of my flying creatures can t pick up anything from dodo s to anything else
It is likely that you have the settings with pve enabled and flier carry disabled.
gus or game ini where should i look
its in gus, but if you are on single player or using nitrado or gportal it is a checkbox I think
i don t have anything related to that in there
man I really shouldve thought better about building a large base in scorched, I did not realise how painfully slow building something is in scorched
Sorry for the stupid question but is a pick or a hatchet better for hard ele from a ele node
I have a Karkinos trapped, but she keeps facing different directions and making it difficult to not hutmrt her. Any tips on getting them to face forward?
Is it losing agro?
No, it rages against the trap itself
I'd say get a high hp dino and just have it distract it but idk how long it will stay agro on it
It only agros on me when I go stand right in front of it.
I've done this before, but didn't have the same issue
Ah ok I was considering doing that, thanks
just build the trap higher/further away the karkinos taming is one of my favorites and sooo easy
remember to hit only head and body and use a magnify glass to look at its torpor if u wanna be sure. You can kill dinos and drag their bodies to it to make it gain hp aswell
Right, head shots only, and I'm monitoring torpor
Not sure what you mean by higher/further away, it's not raging on the catapult
On gen2? I honestly don't know. I have heard loads of people say loads of things. I always just tek punched or used a stryder or anky
Ext
Soooo there’s a rex right outside my base on the beach and I am unsure what to do about it
Run or die or kill ot
I can’t outrun it I definitely can’t kill it and I can’t afford to die because it’ll kill my dinos like I’m safe for the moment because my base is on some elevated rocks but I can’t go anywhere
Do you have a bed?
Yeah
You can leave your stuff at your base, and try to kite it as far from your base as possible.
Then, if you die, respawn back at base.
Alright I’ll give that a try
When it first sees you, it will roar (cause it is a showoff), so you will be able to get a little distance on it at first.
wooden spikes are baisic counter for those sort of encounters
So that worked kind of I was able to lure the first Rex pretty far off My base is by the viking bay on the rocks by the water I lured the first to the opposite side and into the woods a little the second one though kinda surprised me and chased me into an argent canyon pretty close by and it is definitely still too close
It ignored them
if i 100% imprinted on a creature, will my tribe mates receive the same benefits as i would, if they were to use that same creature?
nope. only the person who imprinted it
thanks
hey y'all, I'm on xbox with keyboard and mouse and everything is working fine except my mouse buttons. They aren't working at all. Does anyone know the fix?
I got a 4 man tribe we been dealing with having to upload our base the past 3 days because we keep getting raided we decided to move to exctinction anyone know any decent size ratholes or just nice base locations for a 4 man tribe of bobs
Are the mouse buttons bound in settings to anything?
You may have to do it manually
can someone help me? I loaded into my game but now something is wrong, to use stuff from my hotbar I need to hold 1 or 2 not just press it?
anyone know a fix?
Some person who doesn’t even play anymore has a container by my house and when I moved in to near where it was I was like hm this should disappear but they only get on to keep there shit up and running any idea who I should ask about removing it
If it is disrupting gameplay and or spawns, or otherwise breaking the code of conduct, #reporting-players.
is it normal that item caches decay super quickly on scorched earth?
normally it has a 30 minute timer on other maps I've played but now its 5 minutes
multiple times has important shit been deleted because of comically short cache timers and its annoying
if something dies and such its 30 minutes
if its a drop all its 5 mins
when I played on the island and fjordur, death is a 2.5 hour timer and dropping something manually 30 minutes
you are on SP and probably changed the despawn timer or smthn
there is a setting you can change, pretty sure its always the same regardless of map.
doesnt change unless you manually do it
it must be disabling singleplayer settings that changed it then, I didnt change anything else, but the wiki does not mention it having an impact on decay times
no clue. i find 30 minutes to be enough unless a big group of dinos are around and you have have a tame to kite them away
thing is I usually drop a cache on the ground if I need to quickly grab/do something
and with a 30 minute timer thats no problem, but now its 5
being used to 30 then screws me over
since you are on singleplayer just up the decay rate(lower? Not sure how that setting works :P) 
yeah
I mean that would affect all other decays too which I dont want
its not spoiling timer
its decay. like a body disappearing or item on the ground
the biggest thing it does is gacha crystals 
item and body decomposition time
I quite regret building large on scorched too now
its agony getting the building materials
how so?
barely any trees and sand is a very frustrating inventory clutterer
gotta get the specific dinos for resources 
as if I dont already use those
need a nice oasis area
which dino are you using for wood?
quite literally the only choice you possibly have in scorched >_>
thorny dragon woo
the reason I asked lol. if you weren't using thorny then thats why
could've brought something from another map as well 
I placed such a large amount of stuff now but I barely know what kind of finishing form I'll give the base
is sand in every rock there?
yes
its pretty much all of them
how heavy is it compared to other resources
only exception is crystal and metal rocks if you count those lol
metal nodes don't have sand I believe. use a doed for only stone
equally heavy to stone but doedis dont give sand weight reduction
more than flint 
you get more than flint I mean 
interesting so basically doedi hit a couple rocks search sand then drop all
hi, i can’t seem to join my friends un dedicated server
which platform? #role-assignment
its basically everytime you hit a rock with a doedi you gotta clear your inventory
pc
that much? ugh thats annoying
steam
both steam?
but at the same time you need thousands upon thousands of sand for adobe structures and none of the harvesting dinos have weight reduction for it
the thing is she can’t join through steam, her steam account was community blocked because of her friend
should change stack sizes, makes it easier to mass drop if you need to 
rn I am using item finder mod to kinda cheattily transfer the sand from one place to another
only equus give weight reduction on it
yep
equus OP, its a mobile mortar and pestle 
i love having things stack around 5x the normal amount or so
anyways everytime you hit a rock with a doedi in scorched, 50% of the resources you get will be sand and it weighs as much as stone but the doedi has no weight reduction for it
dont need ultra stacks bc it takes away all the weight but changing stack size lets you make it less cluttered
not sure if you can't join via steam
the server browser is unreliable (well more than non-dedi normally)
so basically have one horse only pumped in weight and transfer all using omni tool
or 2 depends how much farming you do at once ig
basically but I use item finder mod instead of omni tool
and I just transfer it from a doedi to a crate
item finder mod?
if you are trying to get stone I'd suggest using metal nodes.
it just lets you search for items in inventories and transfer them to your character
#building-screenshots base pic so far, its chaos inside and I have no idea what I will do with it but from the outside its pretty neat so far
has alot of potential. looks like itll be very pretty
the roof is completely flat so far which I am not a fan of
well, assuming I finish the roof it is the way now at least
its still 70% open lol
personally i always like either a pointed roof or multi level shrinking inwards roof. but this is off topic for this channel now
anyways wood is also such an agony because every tree is far away and everytime you use a goddang whip you get overencumbered because the amount of rocks you pick up with a whip on scorched is frustrating
so if anyone knows a solution to that...?
my solution would be have an S+ crafting station/anything else next to a big area with tons of trees. offload your stone there and continuously gather the wood there and make all the structures you need then transport them to ur base spot
btw do trees on the volcano give charcoal in fjordur? thought i had gotten some there but idk
I heard some of them do yeah
but I never bothered with it, its so easy to make an industrial forge on fjordur
ye thats fair
so in scorched there are sandstorms and a heat event right? or just the sandstorm? i cant remember (only have watching videos a long while ago)
I wonder how I am supposed to get any good loot on this map
it almost seems like desert "ocean" drops are the only option
or caves
but yeah the desert drops are best
I mean I visited 2 out of the 3 caves so far and there was basically nothing in it ;(
hm thats sad didnt know there were only 3
yep
isnt there a labyrinth?
dont think so
heard there is one on lost island
My friend and I both bought ARK on Epic Games store and neither of us can form a non-dedicated server that the other can join to play together
you wont have to pay for the dlcs on switch when it comes out right? thought that if you already have ark on switch you will just update and it will be free but getting mixed messages
How can I keep my dinos fed without constantly worrying about their food having spoiled?
is there better tranq stuff than darts?
put more food
For all of them? That’s gonna be super time consuming though
how many dinos do u have
use cooked meat for better spoil time
Not many yet but it will be
Ty I’ll try that
our tribe always does that when growing dinos as well just to make sure they never start to starve
Yeah I’m starting to tame more dinos and noticed some of the meat in my first one was already starting to spoil
do forges burn wood faster than campfires?
I believe campfires do burn faster
oh alright thanks
Does anyone know if there's a way to not get the ambergris when farming shards on Genesis
Cooking pots burn wood the fastest aside from obviously the indi forge
campfire, cooking pot, and refining forge all have the same burn time of 30 seconds
thanks
Cooking pot saves loading/unloading time though due to number of slots and cheaper than refining forges (probably should of said more efficient instead of faster)
oh
How many arrows does a low lvl Rex take to kill Jesus I’ve gone after it three times and shot it in total almost a hundred times
what is its level and what r u using too shoot the arrows
35 and a normal bow
It’s in the argent canyon area near my base so I’ve tried going above it and peppering it with arrows
53 tranq arrows according to dododex
Do wild dinos heal?
yes
what dinos do u have
I buffed tamed dinos a tiny bit so they’ll be a little stronger than normal probably but a lvl 10 pteranodon a lvl 23 parasaur a lvl 46 Dilophosaur and not really relevant but a lvl 44 Dodo
It’s my first world and I’m on ragnarok so I figured I’d need a slight buff
That’s why I want to kill the rex it’s in the argy canyon
also what difficulty are u on?
has it been eating corpses?
oh wait you wanted to kill
they fully heal if they do even if its a tiny dodo
.2 I think and yeah it keeps eatting everything in the area
you gotta keep its aggro
I will get murdered if I go down there and draw aggro though
yo, i have a problem, so im on windows ark rn, and im tryna re install my dlcs, whenever i TRY to though, it says " this location isnt set up for installing games" and it gives me no certain option to "set it up" , i try to use my 2 drives, it just does not let me, i have downloaded ark with NO problem at all though, so im not quite understanding
otherwise you can shoot a thousand arrows but you wont kill it if its eating corpses
try going the other side or another mountain
if needed i can send screenshots n such
I really haven’t left the beaches much because last time two rexes came back
pls help 
go to steam and click the steam button at top left. click settings then go to downloads. go to steam library folders then click the + button and add your drives
iirc you have to have all ark files on a single drive tho
im on windows ark, xbox version, not steam
oh
can i send you a screenshot of what it says?
welp no clue then
op
i only use switch and steam :p
oh, rip, know anyone who knows to how2 fix this?
id say just wait for the right people.
or search it in the search bar
prob been asked atleast once
ill just wait and try to look up on yt tbh
I really did lure the second Rex to the worst possible location didn’t I
How do I do that Bola didn’t work
you cant bola them 🗿
you can net them :p
i would recommend getting a flak armor
wait how do u do that
When can I get a net?
low level argys are very easy to tame
you can build gates to trap them but you need good weight for your ptre if you’re using it to travel
engram from gen 2
uses the harpoon gun to shoot it
he’s ragnarok b
There’s yt vids for cheap traps probably a good source for ppl starting out
Could even just make one for the rexs and tame them if ya wanted
if you have the maps usually its good to get the engrams from them. was just a suggestion
@buoyant wren so either build the gate trap or get flak armor and preferably crossbow argys will barely drain your health they’re also slow when they flee or attack you
oh
Gotcha
wouldnt suggest not trapping them as if they fly away you arent gonna get them unless they come down and somehow nothing dangerous is where it goes
help
pls help rn
Whats the uh input to hack a tek tryder
im on xbox Y isnt working
if you press Y or X one of them should work.
Are canoes not repairable? When I approach it, the material list doesn't show up on the hud, and in the wheel menu, it says "insufficient resources to repair".
can you pick it up or no?
Yeah. I can pick it up just fine, but for some reason the game won't let me repair it. 🤷♂️
it waa r2
@ornate marsh
and when placed back down it is still dmged?
@ornate marsh yup.
tried grabbing a good bit of the resources it takes to make one and just repair it? itll prob be a quarter or half of the resources it took or so probably
from the wiki it says tier 3 can drop kibble but it is not at all a good reliable source for it from what i see
@ornate marsh That worked. I guess that just didn't cross my mind. Kind of lame that it doesn't give you a list of materials that are required to repair it when approached. I guess that's because the game considers it a dino instead of a structure.
Kind of a stupid question, but how do I see the change notes when an update comes out?
eh probably the official website but they tend to be somewhat vague when they are security updates
#patch-notes usually this is the place
Ok. One more thing for now, does anyone here know if the Additional Lighting mod is still being maintained? It seems really difficult to get support for it on its discord.
how do i increase the speed knocked out dinos eat
like is there a slider for that kind of thing or is there something in the game?
you can just adjust the taming speed, i wont recomended messing with the dino food drain it could effect all include you tamed dinos too
how do i start in scorched earfth
WildDinoCharacterFoodDrainMultiplier, game.ini
what is the best method other than a toilet to get fertilizer in scorched earth?
Dung bettle
Anyone know the command for Hotspring's Bench Spawn? Was looking at it with a redgun and couldnt figure out the The command path to input to get it to spawn but its something along the lines of WoodenBench_hotspringsbench_Base_BP_1_17_c
if you have the dlc just find a scorched server or do a singleplayer playthrough
So questions is there a reason genesis part 2 doesn’t retain progress when you jump official servers on ps4 cause both me and my buddy have an issue with that?
dude probably more or less meant "how do I survive in scorched earth"
Hey everybody can anybody explain why my dinosaurs changed gender I have a couple of dinosaurs and I got a breeding pair and male and female I logged off for the night and as soon as I came back they were both female can anybody explain to me why this happens because it's quite annoying as I'm trying to breed rare dinosaurs and stuff and I managed to get a breeding pair than come back and they've changed gender on me
Can't change genders without mods.
Maybe u were just tired 🤷♂️
No I had it on video clearly one boy and one girl quite an annoying little bug that they probably will never fix

Never heard of that in my life but ok
Just because you haven't heard of it doesn't mean it doesn't happen to other people
Find me someone this has happened to please I would love to see it
do cropplot plants grow slower in scorched earth? they seem to take much longer than normal to grow
I have evidence but I can't prove it because I can't show images in this chat
No no no I'm not reporting any players just had evidence that a bug existed that someone said that didn't exist
unless you are growing cacti probably :p
ah then #bug-reports
granted I'm coming in late to the conversation and lack a real understanding of what's going on lol
but, typically not good practice to post bugs and exploits publically because then.... people are gonna do it lol
Oh the reason I just asked is because sometimes people no Solutions or something like that
just read up. haven't experienced it myself - but I'm not niaeve enough to think my experience is everyone's.
my best guess is that your breeder paidlr died and your babies grew up. but I assume you'd notice the name change
if you were on PC I'd say it may be a mod, otherwise.... hah. I got nothing.
heres my bit of knowledge.
what happened was this: ark did ark things
simple as that
Well no they both had the same names as I left them and yes I'm on PC but I don't use any mods well I'll just have to hunt a little bit more again and try and find a boy again
Huh
✨ Ark Magic ✨
never question ark magic. just makes your brain hurt.
if you're lucky your brain hurts. otherwise it will drive you mad
anyone know why i cant place my cliff plats even though they are showing placable?
what's it say
depending on the area some places just seems to be like no build zones. like the giant skeleton on the beach on ragnarock has areas you can't place things.
ark snap points are.... special
sometimes I have luck if I come at a different angle or crouch or jump or... give up altogether
Usually you have to place it while looking down iirc
If you try to place it from below it won’t work
also if its too close to where a drop spawns i think that could be smthn
Does anyone know of any mods out there that automatically reattach the scope when you switch from tranq darts to bullets in the longneck rifle?
I don't think there is a mod that does that. The best option is to use two guns, or get used to putting the scope back on
Oh. I guess I didn't think of using two guns.
if you equip the scope to the gun when it has tranq darts itll swap it to bullets
Will wild flying animals take fall damage if you shoot them out of the sky?
non rider dinos wont take fall damages
Only if there being ridden. So if you fall off a cliff on a mount, last second you can dismount and you or your tame will take 0 fall damage unless they got rid of that
I mean if I'm shoot a wild tapejara out of the sky, will it get injured or die when it hits the ground?
ark logic is all unriden dinos wild or tamed wont get any fall damages no matter how high they falls
How do I craft anything better than Primitive?
Find blueprints in supply drops or cave drops.
Do moths produce silk like achatinas produce cementing paste, or do I have to kill them to get silk?
what setting effects how long it takes for two dinosaurs to mate and make a fertilized egg
You kill them for it.
Mating interval. Decrease it to decrease time.
i thought mating interval was the cooldown it takes for two dinosaurs to mate
i meant like during the process that shows the percentage bar
unless maybe I was thinking of the wrong thing
To my knowledge you can't decrease the actual mating time, it's not that long though. Also being on Steam you have the possibility to use mods, or maybe the ini has a solution.
Not my area though, sorry about the misunderstanding.
its alright it was my fault for not coming out clear with context
You can decrease the time to mate. I forget the exact name of the setting
alright ill browse, if it comes back to your head please let me know!
anyone wanna play
MatingSpeedMultiplier in game.ini
Increase for faster mating time
thank you
i need help please help me out
Does anypne know if there is an up-to-date equivalent to Kai's Flyer Perches?
my game crashes every time i join a server my own or smalltribes
Is Toxicant Arrow an expansion? Cuase I do not have it in my list
bro why i's no one helping me out i have a problem with game please help
That sounds like a mod item
Apparently from the mobile version
what is it
Can't send images but I am getting a fatal error (Forget about this I think I know the fix, I gotta verify files first though 😭)
what is the best way to level up in scorched earth? I am kinda stuck at level 100 and ran out of engram points to unlock some important stuff
Kill wyverns with a shotgun, preferably have an xp boost from notes
I kinda planned to leave wyverns alone until I had turrets but alas I lack the engram points
would a pack of argies maybe work?
You are trying to get level 100 without getting wyverns first?
I transferred my character as level 100 to scorched
Ahh
is it normally really hard to even reach 100 in scorched?
or is there another reason you asked
No, not really, but usually you get wyverns a lot sooner than that
I mean this is also my first scorched playtrough
anyways what would be the best method to get wyverns in scorched
now I dont have turrets I can only think of a pack of argies
That works, alternatively you could go to a different map, get some mind wipe and reset your engrams to something more scorched friendly
nah I dont transfer anything between maps except my main character
My game still crashing everytime i use the gestation control
I think is a bug cause it happens the same to my friend
When i want to see the stats of a dino it just crash
I first grab the incubator buff and then when i want to open the menu the game crash
wdym
yeah to get more of the map to show you explore, to open it you press M
no I mean the map that you hold
yeah thats what it is
Yes what about it?
how do I get it
press M and itll open
Press m
No
nope
alright ty
Should i do 0.7 diff for my first ever run (solo)
.7 what? difficulty?
yes
id just do max level 150
so overrideofficialdifficulty=5 and difficultyoffset=1
doesnt really make it "harder" per se
Well, i have never played this game before
if you want just leave it at the default
well bosses are harder then 😄
these commands? Do i need to first set the diff to 1 in the start menu?
essentially, go to the place where ARK is installesd
then go to ShooterGame-Saved-Config-WindowsNoEditor, and you can change both of those in GameUserSettings.ini
Ty bro
np, just search for em
Do my diff need to be at 1 first
I dont think so, but the way I did it was checked the max difficulty and set difficulty to 1, then altered gameusersettings
so if you wanna be safe just do that
yup
what was the command? wipewilddinos?
destroywilddinos
ty
np, if you need any help you can ask
try searching for it, if it still isnt there, add it
OverrideOfficialDifficulty=5.00000
add that if you cant find the Override
under the [ServerSettings] header
which section should it be in? serversettings?
yup
Ini settings are the same on all platforms, except for console
so if i have 5.00000 then i usually find over 100lvl dinos
i only find 2 lvl rn
you wont usually find them
but it makes the max level 150
so on normal slider on 1 the max is 30?
difficultyoffset is separate from the overrideofficial one
the normal slider doesnt actually go past 1.0 and it doesnt really work
so whats the max on normal slider?
i meant max dino lvl
alr ty
Can i somehow change my stack weight or weight system with epic
i hate being encumbered every 20sec
I think so but im not rlly knowledgable on that
You can edit it, so when you put a point into your weight stat it increases by a lot@sacred relic
Are you on single player ?
How
Yep
In the main menu, their will be advance tab in the settings.
Scroll down to player, increase the slider for weight and relaunch world and you are g
tysm
gathering tames if you havent already
use tranq darts on a doed, arrows for the others
or a mix of arrows/tranqs for a doed if you want
what should i tame is what i asked
I assumed you knew
Anky for metal, doed for stone, beaver or a mammoth for wood, megaloceros for thatch
if you are on a map with a desert thorny dragon works for wood aswell
wdym by tough dinos
like rex and shit
allosaraus
allos are kinda useless unless you really want them
i already have many stuff
i thought they had good melee damage or something
kibble?
maybe but they are outclassed by other creatures
for taming?
yeah
Mammoths are great for thatch too now btw, and much better than beavers since the TLC for wood as well 🙂
Deers don’t really get more thatch than like wyverns or Megatheriums, dododex has this and some other weird things lol
you have kibble production?
ah interesting
why do people need thatch
Building usually ?
no how do i do that
cause its a bottleneck if you have the other gathering tames
look at recipes in industrial cooker/cooking pot, get the stuff, and make it
people r gonna build like thatch bases?
stone also requires thatch to make
Idk but stone tier needs it
yeah but as I said, its a bottleneck if you have wood and stone gathering tames
it adds up when building large structures
oh
im still on my very small wooden base
should prob build a bigger one, or gate off an area with gates
(i play singleplayer)
It’s comparable to the other stuff (wood n stone) so if you plan on building big, and you already got a Doedic thatch can be limiting. Especially if you only tamed like a very restricted beaver instead of a mammoth
yeah mammoths are better than beavers but are harder to tame if you have slightly boosted rates in my experience
what do i do after i tame every resource gathering creature
whatever u want pretty much'
id recommend an exploring mount, such as a thyla or direbear
you can tame rexes with relative ease on a good thyla
get some imprinted dinos with good stats
alright
work on boss teams
wa
on ragnarok a griffin is very useful
you can also use a griffin to steal wyvern eggs and get a wyvern
though if you dont have boosted rates you need wyvern milk for that
what is the torpor drop rate of a wyvern, dododex does not mention it >_>
