I would like to make the suggestion for a new official server style which would be a mix of pvp and pve. I'm going to take the example of the game Conan Exiles because I played it a lot and I learned about a pve-conflict mode. For those who haven't played it I'll explain. It's a pve server but between 6:00 p.m. and 11:00 p.m. every day the server becomes partially pvp. We can kill other players, their animals, their slaves and harvest everything they had in their inventory. But the most important thing is that we cannot destroy the buildings under any circumstances. I know that a lot of people were very angry about being killed during these hours of pvp but after all they just have to go play in full pve. I would like wildcard to find a way to make a server in this style because for a person like me who cannot be full time defending my base against offline raids but who would like to be able to pvp it would be a perfect balance . I played 4K hours on average in pvp on Ark and 4K hours in pve. I love the quiet side of pve but I also like the challenge side of pvp but I hate logging in in the evening and finding my base wipe while I was at work after spending several hours building and taming my dinos. And then if people want to connect but don't want to fight for one night they can stay in the comfort of their base and those who want to pvp and just have to go hunting. What do you think?

The Saltasaurus: Wild: The Saltasaurus is a lumbering sauropod, towering over the ferocious theropods I’ve seen here. Nothing bothers them as they plod their way through the desert, foraging for whatever meager vegetation they can find. Their tendency to travel in herds combined with their thick armor reminiscent of the ankylosaur makes them a force to be reckoned with, and as such nothing but the largest predators dare to cross paths with them. When aggravated, the whole herd will come to the individual’s defense in an impressive display of strength. Despite their slow appearances, these sauropods can move in impressive bursts of speed that set the animal up perfectly for a well-timed blow. Domesticated: This sauropod is incredibly resistant to even the most potent tranquilizers I know. I have seen one incredibly daring survivor knock one out by dodging its charges, causing it to smash into rocks and walls. Once successfully tamed, Saltasaurus is an incredible beast of burden, although its lack of speed causes it to be overlooked in favor of other creatures for travel. However, where this creature really shines is combat. It’s thick hide grants it a resistance to all bladed attacks, including the teeth and claws of even the most ferocious carnivores. It can also use its considerable momentum when running to smash into enemies and knock them aside. Some ingenious survivors have even managed to create a saddle for it that completely shields the wearer and passengers at the cost of much of the sauropod's carrying capacity. Overview: The Saltasaurus is intended to be a battle mount, capable of taking on any theropods. Abilities: The Saltasaurus has a passive 25% resistance to damage, but bullets, arrows, and other projectile weapons that can be aimed will do different damages based on where they hit (armor is 75% resistance, close to armor 50%, no armor 25%, etc.) The Saltasaurus has no dedicated sprint. Instead, when the sprint button is pressed, the Saltasaurus will begin accelerating to max speed over a period of time (which, mind you, is still not very fast). This can be chained with the shoulder bash attack for a more powerful effect. Don’t know if this counts as an ability, but the Saltasaurus has a metal saddle that shields the rider and two passengers from damage at the cost of a lot of weight. The Saltasaurus also has decent carrying capacity, which makes sense with how the creature is. It’s REALLY slow, even at max charge. Base bob can outrun it with some difficulty. Very tanky Attacks: Left click/RT: A basic stomp attack that transitions to a tailwhip when looking towards the right rear and a rear kick when looking towards the left rear, does okay damage (tailwhip does less damage but more knockback, same for rear kick). Right click: When standing still a two legged stomp that takes some time to play out, but does great damage (think Ark Additions Brachy). When starting to sprint, right click can be used to start a shoulder bash attack. Once started, a meter will show up on screen, and when you hit the right window at the right distance from the target, the Saltasaurus will smash it’s shoulder into the target, causing high knockback, okay damage (better than regular attack) and inflict a status effect called “crippled”. This will be similar to the ravager’s bleed, doing 5% of health over 10 seconds and causing the affected creature to take damage when moving. This attack, when properly timed, can damage up to metal. If you mistime the attack, the Saltasaurus will stumble and be unable to move for a short period of time as it regains its bearings. The shoulder bash can be used when not sprinting, but will be much less powerful and won’t do the status effect. Crouch: A cosmetic roar, maybe a herd buff? Post suggestions in the comments. Taming: To tame it you need to lead a Saltasaurus away from its herd. If the herd is killed, the Saltasaurus will constantly attack everything around it and cannot be tamed (it’s depressed). When you’ve led it away, you need to make it do its charge attack, and jump aside just as it’s about to hit you. It should smash into a hard surface (a wall or a rock) soon after missing, and when it does, it will enter a phase called “dazed”. At this point you can passively feed the Saltasaurus. This method will result in a high taming effectiveness, but there is another method. You can tranq a Saltasaurus out, but it has a lot of torpor and only takes torpor in specific places (i.e not the armor). This is a little easier than the other method, but will reduce the taming effectiveness no matter what. Thanks for reading my submission! I’ve always just wanted to have a powerful herbivore in ark that can actually take on a rex without getting absolutely destroyed, at least be on par with a rex.

The Angaturama would be a new mid to late game predator that would make the rivers and Redwoods of The Arks more interesting with its two versions that would make the game a little challenging mid game.Redwood Angaturama River Angaturama WILD Angaturama is an aggressive during the night with a similar Aggro range as a Spino but during the day the have a chalico like range of aggravation. The angaturama is a piscivore that is bigger than a baryonyx but smaller than a allo. Angaturama would be distinguished by two different patterns a water like wave of water or a green vine like pattern this would affect their abilities when tamed. You can find the wave angaturama near beaches almost anywhere besides the freezing cold however the vine angas are found in jungles and redwoods. They would both have the same temperament. (Possible idea female water angaturamas could have a bubbly pattern and males could have the waves and jungle ones could be similar with vines and leaves or something) TAMING This things taming method would be kind of like a way less annoying hesperornis tame. This would start of as a knockout tame where you tranq it basic stuff. But then after you knock it out you will have to bring it fish when it's hungry like sabertooth salmon and piranhas. The jungle /Redwood version which will be next to the edge of the biome will want sabertooth salmon while the beach one will want piranha. Repeat feeding it until tamed TAMED ABILITIES The angaturama would have a plethora of abilities depending on where it's from. First the wave anga. This one would be more transport based with more weight and stam in a trade off for less health and damage. However it will move faster in water the the vine anga. This version will also have the ability to swallow water and then shoot it out at enemies knocking them back and doing exceptional damage to metal bases corroding them. Wave version will also have a weight reduction of 50% on stone and crystal.The vine version however would be more battle ready with less weight and stam with more damage and health. The vine version has adapted with the forest and can cloak that gives a buff the makes it so while cloaked your first attack will deal bleed damage but will take you out of cloak.This version will also have a weight reduction of 50% but on wood and obsidian. These abilities should make the feel like different creature almost. THANKS FOR READING I really appreciate you taking the time to read my dino and its always been a dream of mine to have one of my own creatures in the game hope you like the dino.🥰
