Welcome back sunken survivors!

Hey hey, its ya boi ashZCI here, one and only writer for the Sunken Scoop! our good ol' pal ashgcy is too busy doing kickflips with wild dolphins in Antarctica to write this edition of the scoop, so I will be your host for this edition of the Sunken Scoop once again! Well, I've been helping to proofread and edit ash's absurd grammar since day one, so I guess i've been here the whole time! In this scoop, we have sharks, and... more sharks. The Edestus and Aquilolamna have gotten brand new, updated feature pieces courtesy of yours truly! Besides this, we will also be revealing the winners of the Emote Contest we held in our Discord! We loved seeing your submissions, and while not all of them made it in this time, they hold a special place in our hearts!

If this is your first time diving into the deep end, we are a dedicated team of individuals who are looking to spruce up the ocean biome in the same way that Scorched Earth offered a unique, biome specific challenge to survival. With new creatures, resources, structures, items and more, all set on a huge custom map, we're looking to give ARK's oceans the TLC they deserve! The main goal is to bridge that huge gap between early and late game ocean exploration, and make it much more viable and more fun to live a life beneath the waves! This is unofficial content and is only related to our mod. It is in no way related to the official game and its content releases.

Let's dive into the scoop!


EDESTUS FEATURE ART REDRAW

Lava Jaws! Er... Jaw? Saws? What do you even call that? With Edestus being ported over to ASA, I saw it fitting to redraw its feature art! This Lava-covered Lancer of a shark uses Thermite to heat up its body, allowing it to burn its targets even underwater! While they may be tough to get, an Edestus is an excellent exploration mount, due to their bulk and airtight saddle!


AQUILOLAMNA FEATURE ART REDRAW

It may have flashy patterns, but it's all shark and no bite! Sailing through the shallows is Aquilolamna, our resident oddball shark! Once again, I decided to revisit this piece and freshen up its patterns a little bit! This gracile underwater glider sails across open waters on its massive wing-fins, and can take off with shocking speed when threatened! Not only that, but other underwater creatures can also hitch a ride in the slipstream that an Aquilolamna creates when swimming, boosting their speed!


EMOTE CONTEST WINNERS

For those of you who are unaware, we recently held a community emote contest on our Discord, with categories for our community and for the TSW team! We loved seeing your submissions, and after discussing amongst the team, we have chosen 5 (technically 7) emotes in total! 

Without further ado, and in no particular order, lets get into the winners!
