(Official, Valguero) Wanted to take a megatherium and go for some chitin, but saw a very rare thing: normal, non-tek rex with colors that actually look good (a combination of black, white and gray). So instead i trapped the rex, and started tranqing, but he managed to get out of the trap, and after I tranqed him, some deinons wanted to eat me, but hit him instead. Had to let him wake up and retranq. Second attempt went fine. So, I tamed him, put a saddle on him, named him Cinder, and even used him for today's meatrun! He won't become one of my main rides, though - level 60 pre-tame, stats so crap I'd have to keep him away from the dung beetles for they might get confused. Gave bees more flowers, didn't feed herbivores because there's still enough berries in the trough. (Official, Extinction) Fed dinos.

just started ark again 2d ago ... so still building up and trying to get all dinos you will need for building up

@Pocolate The non-story maps spawn higher level dinos by default. However, you can actually edit your .ini to make the story maps behave similarly, they are weighted to spawn lower levels on purpose. Just follow the instructions here https://old.reddit.com/r/playark/comments/bbrrul/updated_level_equalizer/ if you want, then do a dino wipe. It makes such a huge QoL difference I refuse to play without it now. Also don't sweat breaking your own transfer "rules" I did the same thing on my run when I was still on The Island and got a bunch of Christmas deinos lol. I keep to the rules mostly to keep myself from constantly getting distracted and never progressing, otherwise I'd just be running around taming a million spinos in all 3 variants all day. Also just a quick tip if you're only planning to use the rexes for bosses you don't need stamina/weight on them, just hp and melee. They don't use stamina while unridden and you can disable harvesting so they don't overload themselves in the fight. Alternately if you're planning to do mutations it's more efficient to "stack" the mutations on each stat separately so as long as you have two identical animals with the stat you want to stack it doesn't matter if they're all combined or not since you'll breed them in together at the end anyway. Breeding is tedious enough as it is lol. Pretty calm day for me today. It was a real storm at work and I ended up getting home late. Was happy to jump in game to relax, funny how a survival game of all things can be relaxing but then when you have as many hours as I do... Anyway, I kept my gachas breeding and got a new crafting skill mutation. Got him raised up while continuing to replenish basic resources from nearby. Up to 144%, so will need 8 more muts to get to 160 for maximum loot quality. That's really not too bad. Unfortunately super unlucky with colors, they keep landing on an unused region. But it's a fair enough trade. The hunt for the elusive element dust gacha continues. Kinda wishing I had some other breeding project to keep myself amused with since I can't go out of render with the gacha babies out. I suppose I could do colors on something if I really wanted to.

A water/air mount would be absolutely flipping amazing. UFOs can do it so why not space whales ?

smartraptor, the release was planned for 25th of May, not 2nd of June
