Daedros Posted July 5, 2018 Share Posted July 5, 2018 Get some Megatheriums. They do so LOVE them some crunchy Arthroplueras. Mmmm. Mmmm. Add some acid for extra spiciness. Claw licking good. Megatheriums are immune to the acid damage of Arthroplueras, get a damage bonus against bugs, and when they kill a bug, they get a massive damage and resistance buff where they go Hulk mode. Name it "Orson the Bug Slayer". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are great in the swamp cave, that's their real niche role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're pretty good at gathering Chitin too. Take a Megatherium along the black shores on Ragnarok just smashing all the beetles, spiders, centipedes, and mantis, and you'll end up with a crapload of Chitin.

Now come on Forza, I know you are well aware this game has never been strictly about dinosaurs. The dragon was a thing ever since its earliest concept art and trailers. ? 10 hours ago, Paroxyde said: Well, unless the stone is made of chalk, it should be more acid resistant than untreated iron as I assume what metal is from the rust spots on all metal buildings. So damage should be Thatch>Wood>Metal>Stone>Tek. As far as strictly acid damage goes I agree. I think for building (or for armor) that "metal" equates to steel... just not "stainless steel". Thus the spotty corrosion on an otherwise somewhat shiny surface. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then take out the lore then. Take out the main reason "ARK" existed. Take out the non-existing world and replace "Island" with something more realistic about dinosaur. Take out the mammals that don't belong to the ice age. This isn't just "a game about dinosaur" anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know of anyone that plays this game for the story. All I know about the story is that I got some kind of weird chip in me and that bosses give you extra levels.

Well as I said there are a small amount of role players that care about that stuff. Most players do not. Put it this way if the devs in a patch suddenly deleted all the Lore from the game few players would notice and even fewer would care enough to complain about it on the forum.

boysuperpower Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 This was the worst update ARK ever made!- Never take a Titan again, because there is Arthropluera.- If the tribe is offline, play turtles and after the bullets run out, use Arthropluera. Then you will never need bombs for offline attacks.The price to tame an Arthropleura is ridiculous, so you can go out destroying everything. In this way, all ARK players will be displeased with the Wildcard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie12345 Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 After 5000 hours on ark, this finally killed it for me. Moved to Prim+ after about 2000 hours because it was less unbalanced between alphas and non-alphas due to brick being so hard to damage. Now its easy... This will kill prim+ IMHO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TINYMAN Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 Arthros are EXTREMELY easy to counter. They take 5x explosive damage and a 1.5 headshot multiplier. Along with the added 3x ranged weapons multiplier since the damaging patch. For example, a fabby shot does 300 damage, not including saddle reduction, would do 900 per body shot and 1,350 headshot. 500 base HP, level one, so unless they're hella bred a complete maximum of 2 clips; 1 for headshot. Just as an example. Along with, they are not breedable, unless modded, so they must be tamed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeLoeven Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 I actually think being able to damage metal and tek structures goes well with their abilities however it should deal damage at slow rate similar to low level wild dinos attacking a wood wall. The structure should be able to survive for a reasonable amount of time to enable defense of the structure rather than being destroyed in only a few hits. Yes they SHOULD be able to damage metal but they should also have to work hard for it. If you want to kill structures faster bring more than one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
