Kotegee Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 So, this isnt a thread to cry over my dead dinos, its about the fact that these turkeys are way too strong for something that drops 2 event items. New players cant participate in this because if they dont have a giga or mana you wont kill these things. I dont know if this topic fits in suggestions or general but my message is: please nerf them.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARKinadium Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 I always liked to call Turkey Trials the leftover Halloween Trick. Honestly I would just suggest you do like me and just run ark with the argument of "activeevent=none". If there are video games in Hell, i'm sure this event runs there 365 days a year.

Volunteer Moderator Joebl0w13 Posted November 28, 2020 Volunteer Moderator Share Posted November 28, 2020 Man, it's so much more tame than it used to be. The Turkeys used to be super aggressive. The good old days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d1nk Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 Whats causing the grief? I've never had a problem with this event, what's the main complaint? They're getting in your base? Out on a meat run and accidently hit one get wrecked? Just too strong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Volunteer Moderator Joebl0w13 Posted November 28, 2020 Volunteer Moderator Share Posted November 28, 2020 Most the turkeys are on beaches. If you are losing high level stuff to them, you shouldn't be living on the beaches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Volunteer Moderator Joebl0w13 Posted November 28, 2020 Volunteer Moderator Share Posted November 28, 2020 Think of this event as a way of the devs/game saying... you shouldn't be built up and living on the beach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just too strong? theyre too strong + they spawn around our base which makes it hard to do for example: gather berries because thats how my bronto died Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dws Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 Maybe put up a bucket trap around your base, kite them in when you get a bunch shout out in global. I’m sure some people on your server would like the kill. If not, enjoy your turkey death pit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustAnotherBeachNoob Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 I agree, I would rather not fight any turkeys as unless you kill 200, the only rewards are vanity items. Thank goodness my base is in the blue zone and not the green zone. Same thing for the dodo Rex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fox1 Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 I agree that this event is poorly thought out and the first of its kind I've encountered although my previous experience was more tradition MMO. All those were opt-in events meant for everyone with light hearted fun being then general rule although there are a few with more extreme challenges for those who sought them out. For small family servers like ours (5 five players), it's even more unbalanced. We killed five of them just to say we did and get one item. Other than that, it's a none event for us. I may disable it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qwertymine Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 I like this event a lot, always have. I do wish they took just a little bit more damage though, our 4000% damage Rex(Boosted stat gains) still takes like four minutes to kill one with constant biting.

Penguin73 Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 I live on island near volcano. Still have not even seen a turkey yet. But truthfully, I have not been looking either. This event is sooooooooooooo laggy that I have resigned myself to just stay at home and breed, mostly. I disconnect every 45 minutes because of event. That makes it hard to tame (unless it is next to base), or do caves, or even chase after loot drops if you are not careful. I don't mind that the events happen, but I would appreciate if they were shorter (maybe a 2-day thing). I am not into fancy hats and just want to get back to the game. It stinks for the people that work... when we finally get time to play over the holidays with extra time off... we are bogged down with lag and dc issues.

Luewen Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 Well the fact still is that they are not aggressive unless you attack them. So dont leave tames on agressive near turkeys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duffmek Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 do what i do .. have a giga bodyguard atmo ... therefore no turkey trouble .. if u cant have a bodyguard u are gonna have to trap or kill them first OR use a smaller berry collector like the mammoth so u can spot the hidden turkeys PLUS LISTEN out for them .. that distinct 'gobble gobble' sound is a giveaway u hear it find the bugger and avoid, thankfully as already mentioned these ones are NOT aggresive till u smack them so it should be an easy avoid but i understand accidents can happen .. also carry a cryopod with u so at the very least you die and not your tame Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
