Killzuminati Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 Alpha Broodmother made me quit Ark completely! After a long journey of setting up for alpha Broodmother with my bro, I have finally decided to call it quits. Ark is a great game but the bugs and glitches ruin it for me. So what happened that made me quit? Here’s my story... it’s been a few months since I started playing this game. Me and my bro are still fairly new. After a long grind we managed to come up with 18 rexs all over 1k melee and a yuttie and a pig for healing. This was a process that took up most the time I’ve been playing this game... so the time finally came last night. All our hard work was about to pay off and we were going to get the kill and unlock our tek grams we been soooo patiently waiting for. But no.... while entering the stupid arena, my bro was kicked out on entering and it left the pig alone to go in and attack and get killed immediately... shortly after the rexs dropped like flies... I have watched videos on videos of people Soloing this boss.. make it look so easy. I seen videos of them doing it with tribe mates and not get kicked out. so why did this happen to me? Why did my bro get kicked out? Why did my godly rexs get splattered that fast... I’m done with this game. Everything I saved for is gone... I hate it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Castlerock Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 What is their health and saddle armor? I done this solo with 16 rexes of this melee and 40k hp with around 70 armor with no losses without a pig, just a yuty for buff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boshek77 Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 Yah, I have to question the saddles involved here. You shouldn't have needed a pig at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killzuminati Posted January 27, 2020 Author Share Posted January 27, 2020 I had rexs In There with over 100% saddles master craft Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demigod Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 This is indeed strange, and there must be some information contributing to your loss outside of your friend getting kicked out. Rexes with good health and over 1k melee should be able to eat the broodmother, maybe not easily but it's doable. As long as you were constantly courage-roaring them and making them spam attack then it should have been a fairly one-sided battle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Castlerock Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 Did some rexes ended up getting stuck behind the others while fighting? If u whistle them to move behind the broodmother until they are beside her, they could surround her properly when whistled to attack on it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quilleute Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 One of the easiest bosses in ark .... the failing in enter the arena already happened to me once in like 5 years of game ( fail in leave it’s also common ) Was definitely bad preparation for boss ( bad saddles ... bad whistling ) that brought that outcome .

Killzuminati Posted January 27, 2020 Author Share Posted January 27, 2020 I feel my problem was the whistling. I couldn’t get them to attack for the first few seconds of fight and they didn’t have yuttie buff for a short duration of the beginning fight (about 25-30 seconds) I was too distracted by my bro getting the boot and losing the pig. I was spamming attack target on Broodmother and it wasn’t working for a bit. When they were all up the damage was insane but once about 2 fell that was it...

It’s part of the game , grinding is hard but these are the challenges that test our perseverance ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is solved by making sure their group is selected. Default button for groups is 0 on numpad. tapping that will show you what group u have selected and tapping again clears it to none selected which is what you want. It selects all dinos. Then pressing Full stop (.) or holding T and ordering attack will now work. I feel your pain, but you seem to blaming the game for user error.

Killzuminati Posted January 27, 2020 Author Share Posted January 27, 2020 I’m blaming the game for kicking my tribe mate out the fight leading to my pigs death. The slightest heals would of made the fight work.. the boss was almost dead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PertySlick Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 Am I the only one that gets little results from a daedon anyway? I went through the trouble of breeding max level Daedon with all levels on food and the dang thing shot 2 or 3 rings of health (unridden auto-heal) then was waiting for hunger to fill up. I feel like it is a waste of a spot compared to including another Megatherium. Am I wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qwertymine Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 Honestly, sounds like you really weren't prepped. Yeah, the DC is super unfortunate and the product of a glitch, but your rexes really don't sound like they would have beaten it anyway. Even if you don't have a Daeodon, most Rex armies can take down the Broodmother. If you think the Rexes were as good as you could realistically make them, go for something like a Megatherium or Spino, who have distinct advantages in the fight. I have no idea what your server settings are like, but on official, most people seem to go for 8-10K% damage, >110 armor saddles, and 20k health on their rexes.

yekrucifixion187 Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 No idea on the dc either. We tried Alpha Dragon last night. Guys were still and on platform, all met level requirements, only 8 people so not to many, all dino's came (7 Rex, 1 deer). Still two guys never came so you may have done everything right and I understand why you'd decide to quit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m sorry if I misunderstood or something but did you say that official rexs have 8-10K damage stats because I have never seen a rex with anything near that on official even heavily mutated I’ve don’t the boss solo with rexs that have 1.7 k melee and I was pretty sure they were good I didn’t lose one rex even Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreelancerKnux Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 Wow certainly one of the weakest getting arked stories. I've never used a yuti or pigs in boss fights which just means your tames weren't anywhere near as good as you thought Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaGoodNamesWereTaken Posted January 27, 2020 Share Posted January 27, 2020 Well your first problem was using rexes for the Spider. Megatheriums actually have a better chance at beating brood. Rexes to me are a waste of time as it takes too long to get good stats and breeding takes too long on official. I would rather raise megatheriums which the imprinting is broken and you dont have to waste weeks raising them and killing yourself for good imp. Rhinos are also a good trade off but i dont think they do good vs the spider. Spider is actually really strong and if you are not prepared you die super fast.

On official settings you are not getting rex melee to 8 to 10K. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does help if you have under 650 melee rexes going in but atm its just a wasted slot. Yuty + 10 times 35k/1k rex is all you need really. With good saddle of course.

There is no need for good imprint, i raised rexes with around 60% average imprint, leveled to 40k hp 1k melee with around 70 armor saddle, is enough for alpha brood.
