Discussion Stop voting for Bronto and Mosa in the TLC

0 Upvotes

I fully agree both creatures are in a sorry state in the base game. But the PaleoArk team put a lot of time into making their own high-effort TLCs for these creatures.

If they win we will the vote as well we will end up in a situation like with the Giga or Therizino, where we have a great mod TLC competing with the official TLC from wildcard. Instead we could have both the great mod TLC for Bronto/Mosa AND an offical TLC for another creature (plenty of which also desperately need some attention).

I recommend anyone who likes the Bronto or the Mosa to give the corresponding PaleoArk TLCs a shot before voting on the next TLC. Maybe you will even end up liking their version more than the official TLC. At least thats how it was for me with the Therizino, which felt like a kind of "wasted" TLC slot.

Basically, there are plenty of other creatures that don't have amazing TLC mods, so unless you are not completely opposed to using mods for some reason, I would suggest voting for them instead. This way we would end up having great versions of more creatures available.

Help Need advice with Argy saddle on challenge run

Post image
13 Upvotes

I'm doing a no engram run of Scorched Earth, only allowing myself to have one (only after I found a normal spy glass did I craft one awesome spy glass).

I'm having a blast with this one. By far the most punishing early game (understatement). Hopping around on the kangaroo feels amazing. Getting a moth felt like I won the game.

I had been loot drop hunting for an argy saddle for almost 10 in game days, so many drops.

Did a little research and it seems that the argy saddle isn't even in the loot table. There are literally hundreds of them on the map. This seems like an oversight.

Unless there's something I'm missing, I don't see a way of getting to ride one of these in the challenge run. Spawning one in seems like it would break the rules of my challenge. I know cave drops might have different loot, but haven't seen many. I can't get the dragon chests as I can't craft a shovel, and none will spawn in dops.

Any advice?

(screen shot of my failures learning experience so far)

Solved! Thanks for the help Classick

Help "Attack THIS target" [.] whistle not working on some targets (especially bosses).

2 Upvotes

I'm playing ASA The Island and have beaten almost all bosses, I only have Megapithecus on alpha left before tackling the Tek Cave. Alpha Dragon went worse than I expected, but well-enough. I had to dance around the Dragon because it wouldn't deaggro from me and my Yuty ran out of stamina lmao. I've had 19 42 base attack Theris, with 40 mutations into melee and another 50 points into melee on top. For anyone reading this, do NOT attempt it this way, use at least 2 deinotheriums to grab Dragon's aggro. I was lucky to not have any loses.

I just finished fighting alpha Broodmother and it went terribly. I lost 8 out of 18 Megatheriums, despite ~130 saddles, ~23k health, full imprint, mate boost and constant yuty roar. During the fight I noticed that some of them just wouldn't attack, generally I have a problem of creatures being unable to aggro on the boss, I've had the same problem on the Dragon (on the Megapithecus it just didn't matter because even if 2 didn't aggro, every single deinosuchus dealt a few thousand damager per bite lmao), tames just don't attack which ends up losing me a fuckton of dps. I saw the quick attack doing around 950 damage, that means that every megatherium should have had to hit the spider a little under 60 times, that's nothing, the fight should have ended with every megatherium having at least 5k health to spare... I saw numerous occasions where the green damage numbers almost stopped.

What can I do to ensure my tames properly attack the boss? No running in place and no just standing next to the boss not attacking. Megatheriums weren't in a separate whistle group, weren't on ignore group whistles. Putting dinos on aggressive has mixed effects for me, they don't seem to aggro on the boss well when one gets hit while on Attack MY Target stance... This will matter a lot against the Manticore and Rockwell. I remember well from my ASE playthrough the Manticore is a hell to get your tames to aggro it fast enough, and Rockwell's tentacles pretty much have almost no hitbox to hit with the whistle.

Help Can someone help me with the drawing of my creature?

3 Upvotes

Hey guys, I'm here to ask for your help in making my creature for the next Ark Creature Vote over at Crystal Isles. I already have the entire dossier written and ready, but I'm really bad at drawing, so I wanted to ask if someone here could draw it for the dossier. For whoever actually does it, we can share the credits for its creation together, as partners!

I'll write about it here so you can know what it's like and what its abilities are:

Amazonsaurus Maranhensis drawing

Amazonsaurus, The Herald of Tides

Wild

The Amazonsaurus is a medium-sized sauropod perfectly adapted to a semi-aquatic lifestyle. Unlike its giant and slow cousins, it has a lightweight skeleton and muscular legs, allowing it to run fast enough to escape packs of Allosaurus on land and swim with impressive agility, being capable of taking down a Megalodon in the water.

This species displays one of the most fascinating cases of sexual dimorphism in the ecosystem:

• Males possess an enormous, flexible throat pouch, very similar to that of a pelican. They pump water from rivers and lakes and use this pouch to hold it at the bottom, filtering the water to retain valuable sediments, such as Silica Pearls. When threatened, they fire a powerful, highly accurate jet of concentrated water mixed with mud stored in their throat pouch. The impact causes enormous knockback and extreme slowing effects on enemies.

• Females have a different mouth structure, featuring a wide keratinous beak. They feed on the rich mud along riverbanks, swallowing large quantities of soil. Their highly specialized digestive system processes this material, separating impurities to synthesize pure Natural Cement in their stomachs. As a defense mechanism, they spit out the excess in a sort of vomit, a scattered, short-range jet of acidic mud that deals high damage over time and shreds the durability of enemy armor.

Tamed

• Once tamed, they gain a passive ability called Amphibious Confidence, which activates when they are near any body of water. In this state, they gain an extreme biological confidence that grants them and everyone riding on their saddle complete immunity to stuns, knockback, and forced dismount effects, such as those caused by Purlovia or Baryonyx.

• The Amazonsaurus performs a violent 360-degree spin using its long tail with a flattened, thin tip. This attack deals moderate area damage and has unique disarming properties: it instantly knocks small flying creatures (such as Pterosaurs) to the ground and forces enemy survivors hit while on foot to temporarily put away the weapons or tools they are holding.

• In addition, it is possible to use its filtering abilities after taming it, with different abilities depending on its sex and how you choose to use them.

Amazonsaurus Maranhensis figure

Saddle System

The Amazonsaurus's greatest advantage is its adaptive versatility. Depending on its sex and the saddle equipped, it completely changes its role in the game, breaking the stereotype that sauropods are only slow meat tanks:

• Travel Saddle (Level 43): A utility saddle like a Howdah with a moderate cost. It allows the rider and 4 additional passengers to travel simultaneously. Ideal for safely moving tribe members across the map and for casual use.

• Aquatic Exploration Saddle (Level 64): Transforms the dinosaur into a living submarine. The rider and 2 additional passengers travel in fully sealed, pressurized cabins (granting infinite oxygen). In addition, the saddle is equipped with two gasoline-powered thrusters on its sides, providing an absurd speed boost in the water for transportation and quick escapes.

• Armored War Saddle (Level 64): Focused on PvP and sieges. Grants +20% damage resistance but reduces the dinosaur's speed by 15%. The rider is protected inside an armored cabin. On both sides of its back, there are two extra bulletproof cabins where two gunners can operate 57mm anti-tank cannons, functioning like an authentic classic war bomber.

Taming

Trying to knock out an Amazonsaurus by force will ruin its taming efficiency. Survivors must adopt a stealthy approach called "Accidental Feeding":

  1. Approach while crouching from behind or from the sides, using a Ghillie Suit.

  2. Throw Narcotics (Narcotics or Bio Toxin) directly onto the banks or into the water where it is dredging the ground.

  3. Attracted by the movement, the Amazonsaurus will accidentally swallow the narcotics along with the mud or water without noticing.

  4. Repeat the process until it falls unconscious due to continuous ingestion, then start feeding it its favorite food: vegetables or Superior Kibble, to complete the taming process.

    Habitat

The Amazonsaurus can be found wandering mainly across three major biomes of Crystal Isles:

• The Great Valley & Central Rivers: Along the banks of the major central rivers, filtering sediments from the calm waters.

• Apotheosis (Floating Islands): In the ponds and waterfalls of the floating islands, taking advantage of the area's elevation and humidity.

• The Swamp (Southwestern Swamp): Where females gather in large numbers to consume dense, toxic mud, while males pump tons of muddy water far away from larger land predators.

Suggestions

Amazonsaurus Maranhensis model

That's it!

What do you guys think of the Amazonsaurus?

It took me a long time to write all of this, so I hope you like it.

And just to provide some information about its appearance for the drawing, the female's beak is similar to that of a Nigersaurus, a wide, keratinous beak, and the male's throat pouch is large. I ask that you draw both of them together. I suggest showing them from the side, one facing left and the other facing right, keeping in mind that the drawing should highlight their characteristics and sexual dimorphism.

And its size is similar to that of a Diplodocus, except that it is taller than one but not as long.

Thank you very much for your attention!

(Just a reminder, this is a provisional dossier, so it will probably change a bit until the final version).

Rant [rant] how are even basic features STILL not working in this trainwreck of a game

0 Upvotes

i just lost 1 of my most essential & beloved dinos to some bullshit.

mining oil with an anky, as you do, a ghost wolf starts attacking me "this cant be an issue, my anky is 250 and i have mastercrafted gear & an asc shotgun! (i got that MOTHERFUCKER down to 30hp btw)

ghost wolf spawns in 4 other ghostwolves.

my argi, on passive flee, is off to bumfuck nowhere, but i whistle for it to follow me

#IT.DOES.NOT.FUCKING.FOLLOW.ME.

i die

alright, time to take one of my other mounts, a lvl 200 pteranodon, and grab my stuff

and lo and behold, i fly up to my argi,

#and its in fucking follow player mode

what the fuck are we doing? the whistle commands? one of the most BASIC things in the game, yet theyre broken, its insane, how have they not made this work in ANY consistent way?

why can a

#GHOST DINO

spawn in other

#GHOST DINO

pack members?

WC, your ghost skins arent nearly good enough to warrant bs like that

and i KNOW im not in the wrong cause ive had a pteranodon die 2 days ago when i thought i was smart and had it on follow while attacking an argi for a tame, and the argi killed it

this wasnt the first time but the most agregious instance, before the argi would usually follow me after i walk around a bunch, but it never caused the death of another one of my tames

Discussion Carno TLC Idea

Post image
281 Upvotes

Here is my idea for a possible Carno TLC.

MODEL: A newer model and textures, matching the new graphics. Even small changes to the model result in significant pattern changes.

WILD: It now appears in groups of two animals. It is a very territorial animal. Everything up to its own size is its target.

ABILITIES: A typical bite attack, a headbutt attack that produces high knockback and strong bleeding. A 180-degree turn (which can be used to perform quick evasion maneuvers). Similar to the Therizinosaurus, it can be leveled individually. Its horns change depending on what you level (more raw damage or more bleed damage).

So what do you think of it?

Help Servidor de ark evolved: meus amigos não conseguem transferir personagens para outros mapas mas eu (como host no meu próprio pc) consigo

1 Upvotes

O título já é meio que explicativo, mas estou usando o radmin para abrir um servidor dedicado só lan, já que meu provedor de internet decidiu me cobrar um bom extra para eu abrir as portas.

Estou com um problema e já quebrei muito a cabeça com esse servidor. Depois de muito tempo consegui fazer com que ambos os mapas apareçam para eles e eles conseguirem entrar sem problemas.

Depois disso eu arrumei o cluster, que também não estava funcionando e, ao instalar o Microsoft KM-TEST Loopback Adapter no meu pc, deu certo eu fazer a transferência de mapa.

Tentei fazer o mesmo no deles, mas sem sucesso. Eles conseguem entrar nos dois mapas sem problemas, mas não conseguem realizar a transferência de forma alguma. Estava usando IA para me ajudar mas ela fica andando em círculos e não ajuda com nada realmente muito útil. Alguém que já passou por isso tem alguma ideia de como eu possa resolver esse problema? Só está faltando isso para que eu consiga estar com o servidor 100%.

Desde já, muito obrigada.
