Nim Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 "Using" Tek when you don't have the tekgram, question Before I start amassing a billion varied resources I wonder something about Tek tier. I know you have to have the tekgram in order to wear/use tek armor and to use the replicator. The other things, however, I'm unsure about. The wiki doesn't specify for all of them and my game legit won't run singleplayer, so here I ask. Do you need to have the tekgram to: equip and fire the tek rifle equip the rex saddle and fires its laser activate the tek forcefield place tek structures use tek doors and gateways and have the auto-open/close options use the transmitter, both transferring in and out (could have sworn wiki said you didn't need the tekgram, don't see it now) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vanyelxp5 Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Rifle, yes you need it for both. Rex saddle.. i don't know if you need it to equip, but yo do need it to fire. Force field, you can't even open the inventory without the engram, so you probably need it to activate. You do not need it to place pre-built tek structures. No idea about the doors I would assume that you need it for the transmitter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeningWei Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 What I'm interested in is if I mindwipe, do I lose my tek engrams?. I would think yes, but maybe there's a special case for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McWTF89 Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Unfortunately you need it to fire the rex saddle. I couldnt get it working for ages untill i hunted around and found out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McWTF89 Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 I mind wipped on a private sever and had to re learn the tek gear. Might be different in official. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nim Posted March 28, 2017 Author Share Posted March 28, 2017 Tekgrams do not get wiped when you use a mindwipe tonic. Have done so on official PvE and still have my tekgrams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would kill mindwiping if you had to relearn each time. I often mindwipe for different tasks, one set up for building gathering, one for fighting and cave diving. If i had to fight the bosses to learn all the stuff everytime i mindwiped, id never bother with TEK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just hate all the new stuff seems to be TEK related, with less new primitive or modernish stuff. Though i have ranted about that in several TEK request related threads already.

I wish we would have half of the Prim+ stuff in base game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though there is a bunch of stuff in Prim+ i wish was in the base game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NathanAndDaddy Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 If I unlock it with one character can I use it with another character (same account, obviously) on a different server? Just wondering if I need to transfer my character to ragnarok or can create a new one and still use my tek troughs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewiatan Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 You need tek engram unlocked to use tek armors of dinosaurs or personal tek armor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Tek transmitter at Medium Dragon is horrible for players with chars at different servers at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
