  1. Today: Boss Fights Consummately on My Terms. So, today, after long hiatuses on Genesis and midway a proper establishment on Crystal Isles, I found myself called back home on Extinction to continue my ongoing quest to finally tame my desert titan. I have most everything in place, but I found that before I go ahead with 50,000 assault rifle bullets, a selection of decent ascendant assault rifles from my pre-nerf gachas and a loose notion of the strategy, I wanted to actually defeat the titans and unlock the Tek suit as the last piece of what I felt I’d need. And in my mind there was really just one approach I could realistically hope to succeed with. I don’t keep rexes or gigas in large enough numbers to constitute a proper boss hoard, and I only keep fire wyverns in regard to tackling desert. But there was one thing that I do keep in huge numbers, and have sunk a huge amount of time into breeding, and, as it happens, has always played to my approach to Ark’s challenges: If you throw enough birds at it, the problem tends to go away. And so I packed up my a-team of thirty monster dimorphodons, and my mounts of choice - my basilisk for ice and forest, and my eagle for desert, and set about my first ever Ark boss fights. In the interests of full disclosure I should mention these were birds bred from my allotment of creatures I spawn on every map as my favorites, in this case a pair of level 750 dimorphodons, whose lineage was originally meant to be my answer to OSDs. And I am so pleased to report than the OP dimorphodon flock I’d spent months breeding was more than sufficient to deal with the titans, with them facing the biggest challenge - or at least longest TTK - on desert because they kept getting pulled off by the flocks. The ice Titan’s frost aura also generated a technical challenge, but he was happy to focus me down while I pelted him with my basilisk from range until the birds were unfrozen. It was an elating, if not entirely fair victory, and now I’m ready to go ahead with my plan to at long last tame my titan.

  2. (Official, Valguero) Leveled Sapphire more. That's all, no harvesting, no breeding, no nothing. Just a bit of hunting. Didn't do anything on the other two maps I play on, either.

  3. Definitely love having EVO events, but could you let us know with at least a day in advance? My Gigas didn't reach 100% imprint because of that, feels like my last 2 weeks of effort were for nothing.

  4. I think this will happen sooner or later, but it would be better if they did it themselves and did not give their project to any vandals. I bought a 512 SSD and was thinking about buying a new DLC, but apparently not now. There is no stability and confidence in the future.
