Teerwenn Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 If you aren't looking to be raided, Carno Island could be considered simply because they gotta come at you with fliers or Aqua mounts, don't think a Giga could reach Carno Island Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marmio64 Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 the island with the red obelisk is a great place for a base if you have a flier same for herbivore island Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just elevate the platform and the quetz can carry it like any other dino ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobRoss Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 since you're looking for a breeding location i'd say somewhere on the south side of the island, maybe weathertop? its easy to defend, has alot of natural protection (like the cliffs) and if you chop down the rocks there is a huuuge open place to do everything you want and more. And since its on the south side of the island their wont be big predators around but still alot of herbivores to gather meat from for your babies, if you go north there is the swamp with alot of paracers and stuff which give a great amount of meat. it has always been one of my favorite location to build Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skeeta Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 I'm currently constructing a new PvE base in Smugglers Pass just SW of the Hidden Lake on the edge of the snow biome. It's a nice piece of real estate with good access to all 3 snowy mountains (I'm in the foothills of Winters Mouth mountain) and the Volcano and has plenty of wildlife nearby from both biomes. Building the initial 12 by 12 foundations only required me to raise/lower about 6 so it's nice and flat. My initial base leans against the western fang of the red obs and that area worked out pretty well for a newb. It's pretty safe for both you and your dino's to get established. I didn't have a wall around my tames for a long time and didn't lose any. It is rather a steep slope for building though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are Silica Pearls easily accessible, lots of oil, and just a quick flight to the volcano. In the not snowy side of the river..just a few mins from the beach is also good..? A little bit hidden? I'm searching a new place in the north.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes i know its possible but as its seen as an exploit i wouldn't really suggest it as a method Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carage Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 I wish there were more spot on the Island that were safe from Gigas and Titas. It can be slim pickings if you aren't the alpha.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is true but on most pvp servers only the alphas are aloud to build on volcano or even mine metal from it. Those that arent built on by alphas usually are under alpha controll where no one can build there and doing so will certainly end up with you being wiped.

SauropodSexSlave Posted March 14, 2017 Author Share Posted March 14, 2017 Thank you everyone, wonderful suggestions so far. What about places that have natural dino storage potential without the use of many dino gates for example the hidden lake or volcano. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisnt64 Posted March 15, 2017 Share Posted March 15, 2017 There are many good places to build in Ark, The Hidden Lake up North west is a good place, easily securable and heaps of space to expand, The swamp has a few good places my personal favourite being below the redwood mountain theres a part that sticks up out of the swamp, very good PVP location and easy to get meat/berries for breeding. My personal favourite spot is the biggest glacier up north, very isolated so you wont get as many people try to raid you. The Glacier also has a Overhang that you can make a massive base on and below the overhang is a big flat spot. heaps of room for mass tame storage and breeding, and probably the best PVP location on the island. Also no gates needed put turrets round the island and you're set, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
