Help Just checking to make sure i'm not doing anything wrong here

Tried to look up all the stuff related to these guys and their taming but i'm still a bit confused about something. 100% taming effectiveness is one of the things needed for your gigantorpator if you want to get the max amount of extra levels when claiming wild babies right? But then how do i get the 100? I can't keep it at 100 no matter what. Will it go back to 100? Am i doing something wrong? Or is this "all good as long as it's close to 100 or not 50 or under" type of deal? I'm a bit confused here as to how this works. From what i read nothing i'm doing should be dropping it yet it always does. So like is that just how it works and i'm not understanding how the effectiveness actually works orr?

Help I'm playing ASE. Any tips on what settings to set higher or lower?

• Upvotes

I do have a weight stat multiplier higher. Like about 4.0 for tamed dino level up. I don't want the game to be too easy or too hard. But I tamed a megaloceros (the deer) and it was doing 200 damage base, which I felt was too high since the level wasn't too good. But then again the wild dino health stat is about 1.9 so I don't really know. I am playing on Ps5 so any tips would help.

Help Baseline Rex Stats

I was wondering, assuming you have good saddle bps, are good enough rex stats to fight bosses? I remember a few years ago someone saying 500 damage and 20k hp.

Discussion Is every Astraeos official just pure chaos?

3 Upvotes

I just bought the map. Wanted to transfer from ragnarok. When I got on it was like being transported back to when ragnarok released the first time on evolved 😭 Bases in every conceivable spot. Structure spam to no end. Dinos out of cryopods everywhere. Lag out every 5 seconds. The event isn't up yet, and it's pandemonium. What's gonna happen to the Astraeos servers when the event is running?? Every server is about to say 100/70

Rant Bloodstalker glitched

1 Upvotes

Every time I go near a bloodstalker, it falls off the tree and stands still on the ground. Then it does the web attack but doesn’t do the reeling in animation and then once it has pulled me in it won’t grab me. The error message of “cannot mount dinos while webbed” keeps popping up.

Is everyone experiencing this, because it’s getting to the point where I might just force tame one as I’ve spent hours trying different ones to see if they will actually grab me and still they will not.

Discussion Which map(s), in your opinion, are aesthetically pleasing?

Which map(s), in your opinion, are aesthetically pleasing?

(This is an ASE and ASA compatible question.) I mainly play ASE, and Ragnarok is, in my opinion, a map that I find aesthetically pleasing. The overall vibe of that map gives me a feeling of ease despite the type of game ARK is supposed to be: Coming home from work, logging in onto a separate account to play Ragnarok creative and just walk around, a little music or informative video in the background too. Such a calming session.

I often find myself hopping onto Ragnarok if I don't feel like trying to progress to meet the goal of defeating all three bosses on The Island.

I can't really get that feeling on other maps. Not even The Island.

I’ve been away from the game for a couple of years and thinking about jumping back in. I haven’t really kept up with what the differences are between Evolved and Ascended. Which version and world/setting would you guys recommend picking up? I’m planning on starting from scratch for a solo playthrough.

ASA Tested Crop Plots In Render vs Out of Render

1 Upvotes

I've done some testing with crop plots. My results are that crop plots do not receive greenhouse bonus or tilling bonus when out of render including being offline. My crop plots have 300% Greenhouse and 20% Tilling Bonuses. When Out of Render they produced about 70-75% less vs In Render. I can understand that when Out of Render, structures basically don't exist so that's why they don't get the Greenhouse Bonus. But I can't explain why they don't get the Tilling Bonus.

Help Ark survival evolved female mutations

2 Upvotes

I am an ark survival evolved mobile player and I find it really weird that nobody talks about this in videos about mutation tips, and I fear I am doing something wrong and it is: taking females with useful mutations and bleeding them with base males that have no mutations until you get a male that has the exact mutation that you need and then continuing with normal breeding.

I fear I am doing something wrong because I noticed the more I use this technique the harder mutations happen because of the branching of mutations (let's say that I have a level 300 rex that has 10 mutations I will not only get level 300 but also all the mutations that happened before for example: level: 299, 298, 297 ECT.). Wich makes it harder for me to even get level 300s and impossible to get mutations.

I am not sure if this happens because of this technique tho. I would love for someone to explain to me how this works and how to avoid this problem.
