Narthropi Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 Hello again guys ? more random questions. And as always thanks for reading and any tips you can give even if it's off topic. So my question is that I've noticed a lot of things the ark official wiki says are mostly things you can't do in official PvE servers which is super strange. And I'm about to maybe trade for a karkinos. Which wiki says can pick up any medium or smaller sized creatures actually two of them. My concern is that wiki also says you can pick up wild Dino's with flying mounts such as my Argy and drop them into a taming pen. But you cannot pick up any wild dino and I don't get why. So is there other stuff you cannot do, and what about karkinos? Thanks for any help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having a wild dino dropped in your base intentionally, not fun. You can still pick up your tamed dinos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MandaBear Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 Yea pve is weird because of troll prevention. I am not sure on the specifics of what is not allowed, but do know the lack of normal game play mechanics in it are the number 1 reason why I do not play it even though I love the building parts of this game. I suppose unofficial would be where its at in that sense because those servers can allow you to pick up dinos but also have mods to prevent trolling with it as well.

jpcab Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 Play single player instead or unofficial pve is completely crap on my opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corrigan Posted August 14, 2018 Share Posted August 14, 2018 There’s ways to circumvent the inconvience of some Official PVE features, or lack there of. Building taming pens around the map for example, versus picking up a wild and dropping it a pen by ur base. Most of us Official PVE players have adapted to the features, or lack there of, designated for PVE. Usually I or someone else builds an unlocked taming pen near argy spawns for the communities use. Unnoficial is more than likely your cup of tea, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Narthropi Posted August 15, 2018 Author Share Posted August 15, 2018 So that's a no go on any tamed dino picking up wilds? That sucks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IrishAlexis Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 Correct. If you play official pve you get used to it. It would honestly seem weird to me if you could pick up wild dinos now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thamic Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 FYI, An argy can pick up some wild small dinos in beak. Jerboa and the experience dino work. Only 2 I have tested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpCowboy Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 IMO PVE need this kind of challenging restrictions, cant imagine how boring and easy will become if you are able to transport/carry wilds without being attacked.... there are some "tricks" that let you carry small dinos, grapplins for example to carry wild sheeps on a ptera, i used this a lot of time when i am fresh starting and have nothing to tame a sheep, i just "store them wilds on my tamming pen for carnivores... and kill them when need the mutton.

I understand that but there are ways to counteract it being so easy, Example anything creature you pick up that isn't yours or tribes/Ally will always auto attack your bird, or maybe do direct damage to you? Or perhaps has a damage multiplied to you or your pet like 3x damage. Or hey even something like depending on the dino size small medium or large it will rapidly drain stamina like trying to pick up a therazino with a quetzle will drain Stam at 5x the rate while it does passive damage? They could make it much more challenging and fair to make it taming it an easier method but making the other a challenge. Idk these are random ideas if people wanted it. I'm okay without it was just asking an initial question against wiki. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Volunteer Moderator Jerryn Posted August 19, 2018 Volunteer Moderator Share Posted August 19, 2018 OP asked questions about playing PVE and limitations; not another PVP vs PVE discussion. I have removed some off topic comments(or anything that quoted off topic comments) and ask that you return to the topic; do not continue to hi-jack this thread.
