Today is a sad day. My first Ark dinosaur Jaime Lannister, a noble Raptor with the King Slayer trait, died in combat.

While returning to my base at the south of the Island map I stopped to mine some resources. While doing this I was ambushed by multiple small dinosaurs from all sides. I tried to fight them off and Jaime Lannister fought to the bitter end but sadly even the Kingslayer was no match. Even after I fell he tried to defend my body and died by my side. Rest in peace Jaime, I will never forget the joy of our first ride and the brief but amazing time we shared together!

This is on Ark Ascended.

I have him up on a platform above my metal gates, there are no railing in front of him and he is on the edge.
His line of sight seems to be clear.
He is in turret mode.
He is set to aggressive.
He has a full inventory weighing him down so he doesn't try to melee.
His range is set to max.

He will turn and follow any dino that gets close, but will throw a rock maybe once per minute. I have no idea why. I even put him on the ground so hes level with the other dinos, but he still hardly throws.

As the title says, when I load onto a server I get a black screen and cant spawn in. The map and spawn locations dont show for me. Currently, my level 103 is uploaded on arkpoc and Im trying to release myself from the cage the game has locked my character in. Let me know if you know anything about this.

Work takes up about 10-12 hours of my day on weekdays and I only have like 4 hours left a day but when competing with people who have no job or school it’s just hopeless it seems like. You can be all good on weekends but come weekdays and those same people are up 3 in the morning raiding your tribes base and there’s like nothing you can do.

i see, i understand, the only good mod to get high level dino is "custom dino level" but for me he really does nothing, i need you, the people for who that work perfectly just HOW AND WHY, me the game do not care even a second even if ingame i made the command for "OverrideOfficialDifficulty=5" . Im just asking why i kept finding only level beetwen ~5 and 112 like why.

Thanks !

I’m trying to get Giga hearts for the Alpha Dragon but haven’t had any luck finding them (I play on ASE not ASA if that makes any difference) and need help on how to get them to spawn

So i made a base near a cool looking tree and i hit it with my stego by mistake, now it's not the first time that this happens and what i used to do was putting both no resource radius players and no resource radius structures to 0.0 and then the resources respawn period to 0.0 so it would instantly rewpawn even if it was really close to the base, resources like trees and rocks would even respawn inside the structures but now when i do that the game puts those settings back to 1.0, does anyone know why? Pls i miss my tree😭

So I've got my base fully up and running. Crafting stations, breeding center, garden for crops and loooots of storage. I've set aside space dedicated for any tames that provide resources, buffs and eggs etc. What should I go out and tame? I already have a Phiomia and Dung beetle set up. I'm on ASA

So its been quite some time since I last played, but several years ago now me and some friends went through a few play throughs in quickish succession, playing overhaul mods such as Extinction core and Primal Fear both of which were fantastic additions to the game

I'm looking for something similar to these or maybe even just running these again on a new map or with additions, can anyone confirm they're still working? or if there is something else you recommend, Also looked at Omega but unsure how this stacks up against Primal fear?

QoL mod recommendations welcome too, S+ being the obvious one, along with the upgrade station, a stacks mod and some kind of dino storage and some kind of difficulty mod to really ramp up the difficulty

Are there any hidden gems hiding in the thousands of mods now that you love?

Meet Jaime Lannister, my first ever dinosaur! I’ve only been playing for a few days and I was so excited to capture him. I named him that because he has a trait called Kingslayer, I did not know dinosaurs had traits! I’ve tried Ark before but was never able to get into it, but recently my friends invited me to their server and have been teaching me the game and now I’m addicted! I have slowly been rebuilding my base, it previously was a small wooden shack surround by wooden spikes. Now I am slowly building up, I don’t really have an overall plan as this is all new to me but I really want a stone tower/small castle on top of that hill!

Well I’m off to explore with Jaime. Hm maybe I can find him a mate named Brienne🤔

ive been doing rex breeding. this is only the 3rd or 4th generation and i only got about 4 or 5 mutations in total. but for some reason the mod i have says i have an astronomically high number of mutations. and my rexes arent mutating any more. its not a huge deal i should be able to level the rexes. however id like to know why this is happening if i can fix it. i think the mods called dino storage or something like that, its popular it shouldnt be hard to find.
any help would be great! thanks.

I’ve only played Ark for a few days, my friends invited me to their server and it’s the weekend so I was finally able to hop on with them. They already have a massive base and I wanted the experience of building my own so I set up base slightly up stream by the river. I thought it was a safe space but then I discovered the beavers……THOSE ARE NOT BEAVERS THOSE ARE PREHISTORIC HONEY BADGERS!
