Update Broke Entire Game!!! The Island Now Raining Bosses, Scorched Earth Nuked! Since the 1/10/2020 Update Here are the issues I'm having so far. On The Island whenever I use an obelisk to fight a Guardian I now get teleported...…..NOT to the Guardians Arena but...… IN THE SKY WITH MY DINO'S!!!!!! Literally Teleports My Dino's, Me, and the Boss to the very center of The Island, Coordinates 50 Lat. 50 Lon. where we all freefall from the SKY until we hit the ground. In most cases it's instant death for my character and my T-Rex survives with the boss landing on our heads. Sometimes the boss even Vanishes into thin air after landing. Not sure what's going on here but The Island is now raining down Players, Dino's, and Guardians when you activate an obelisk. Oh, and that's not all! I moved over to Scorched Earth only to find that I was instantly killed along with ALL MY TAMED DINOS, and ALL MY STRUCTURES WERE COMPLETELY DESTROYED!!!!!!!!! All that was left were inventory bags where my structures USED to be. Is anyone having these problems? If so is there any way to fix them? Any help is appreciated BC my game is unplayable ATM.

We're currently working to get as much stats into rex's and well on our way, I've seen others with higher stats but we're not doing bad. With 10340 HP and 374% base melee, what is the recommended stats for 9 of us to take down the hard bosses? We were thinking 20k HP then pump as much Melee as possible. Has anyone succeeded :)?

So i've pretty much tried every way i've seen from Cheat summon Dragon_Character_BP_C to Summon Dragon_Character_BP_C and admincheat summon Dragon_character_bp_c but nothing works... i just want to spawn in a dragon. i honestly don't care if its tamed or not but i just want a dragon so if anyone knows a working way to spawn the dragon boss on ragnarok with console commands then PLEASe let me know thanks ^ 3 ^

Anybody play default server settings? Has anybody here actually finished the game with normal default server settings? Asking for a friend. I’ve been playing on default non-dedicated server settings (0.2 difficulty) with some friends on one world and one character for years now and im only just starting to try to fight the bosses which may not even scale with difficulty, surely people have done it though? Like the Alpha bosses and all the caves and that? Every time i try to find video its always boosted server settings.

Alpha Rockwell Singleplayer PVE. Hey guys a little back ground info. Playing max difficulty, not using single player settings. I got 87 armor rock drake blueprints and thinking about taking on rockwell with the drakes. I would like to know what is the recommended health and melee for alpha rockwell. Any additional info or suggestions are welcome as I have never done an aberration boss before. Thanks.

Help! Boss noob here Hey, I’ve been playing ark on the same non-dedicated server of mine for like two years and have still never fought any of the bosses. I’ve been trying to figure out what level my dinos should be before i try to fight the alpha Megapithecus but have had trouble finding vids of other people fighting that boss on non-dedicated with default server rules because, no one does that. My highest level rex is 89 which is shameful compared to the level 300s i see on youtube on boosted servers but I’d appreciate if anyone has any idea what levels my stuff should be before fighting the boss? Thanks moits.

Boss If I used my lvl250 spino with 50k hp and 400% melee DMG what other Dino's would you recommend to kill the brood mother. I also have a lvl 200 wyvern

Wild Bosses roaming around genesis? Who else thinks we'll get bosses roaming around genesis? In the trailer it showed a megapithecus roaming around the map and the way I know it's wild is that it was fighting a giga which can't be brought into a arena plus in extinction it showed every creature being released from the arks including Rockwell escaping, plus in extinction they showed that they managed to implement titans into the base map. Granted they were spawned and stayed in a certain radius but still their raid bosses so how hard could it be to implement the smaller weaker bosses as wild creatures that roam the map. I think they will have limits though such as only spawning at their gamma difficulty and not being able to spawn in minions like the boss arena versions so their not too overpowered, but I think their stats will stay the same as the arena variants so it's more of a challenge, plus in the trailer the megapithecus didn't have any minions and didn't try spawning any. I think if I'm right we'll definitely get the Broodmother too (valguero is pretty close to a wild Broodmother) and at a push the Dragon and Manticore (The Dragon is basically broken outside of the arena so it'll need alot of work to function and the Dragon is actually very strong and the Manticore is probably not likely due to also not functioning very well outside of the arena although it is far better than the Dragon since it can actually move and be controlled when ridden but it definitely needs attacks for when its flying because it doesn't have any when tamed as of now, also they would probably want it to stay exclusive to Scorched Earth and not make the whole situation that happened with Ragnarok taking almost every creature from Scorched Earth worse.), maybe they'll even be limited time tames similar to the Titanosaur, Ice Titan, Desert Titan and Forest Titan but have a permanent option in single player.

Allow (small) flyers on boss fights I've been playing on a private server (Ragnarok) with a friend and recently got into breeding. Dimorphodons are my favorite dinos and I was looking forward to breeding some super dimorphs and using them on the boss fights. I then found out that Ragnarok only has 1 boss (Dragon+Manticore) and that this fight apparently does not allow you to bring flyers in and I feel very sad. Is it possible to change this? I can understand not allowing quetzals with machine gun towers, etc. But not allowing dimorphs, agents, etc. seems a bit unnecessary?

Ark Aberration Artifact of the Lost Idea I think aberration should have a second boss that's fought by using the obelisks and you would need the artifact of the lost to get to it. The second boss should be the queen of all the reapers and nameless the Reaper Matriarch that design wise is somewhat similar to a large Reaper Queen however its tail would be somewhat like a combination between a scorpion tail and pincers (imagine seltas queen tail from monster hunter but more spiky and intimidating) its color is jet black with crimson red eyes and it should have red element streaks across it's body and in its frills similarly to the alpha nameless and its spikes should be larger with spikes jutting out of its back on both sides of the body. Attack wise it should have the acid ball attack that the reaper king has spraying acid balls everywhere in a shotgun attack. it should also have a wide acid spray attack with its tail that will leave puddles of acid that damage things walking into them, and it can do a impale attack similarly to the manticore tail attack. Its arena could be a cave with purple Crystal's all over the ceiling and afew spires scattered around the area with hints of tek around the arena. It should also have a new cave in the halls of the reaper queen to get the artifact of the lost. And in order to fight Rockwell you would have to have its trophy heads depending on what difficulty. Gamma requirements: Artifact of the Lost, Basilisk scales and rock drake feathers. Beta requirements: Artifact of the Lost, Basilisk scales, rock drake feathers, Alpha Basilisk Fang and Alpha Karkinos Claw. Alpha requirements: Artifact of the Lost, Basilisk scales, rock drake feathers, Alpha Basilisk Fang, Alpha Karkinos Claw and Alpha Reaper King barb. Plus this could be a nice further nod to different types of xenomorphs from the alien franchise, the Beta Reaper Matriarch would resemble the K-Series Aliens from Alien vs Predator Extinction because of the golden coloration and the Alpha Reaper Matriarch would resemble the Red Xenomorphs from the Alien Genocide comic, plus the Reaper Matriarch would basically be arks version of the Xenomorph Queen Mother which also appear in the Alien Genocide comic. This could go well with the Scorched Earth remake suggestion I made although this has less of a chance at getting added than the Scorched Earth Remake it would be pretty cool to see in the game plus it honestly feels like aberration is missing something considering the fact the artifact of the lost even exists but is used for nothing.

Tameable isand bosses as lategame tames I was thinking about it and it would be cool to see an old enemy become a friend as you explore genesis, downscale their HP and stuff and stronger than a rex for megapithecus but weaker than a giga and other stuff for the bossez

Lost all my dinos because of a bugged Manticore So this weekend we were taking on the gamma boss fight on official Valguero 1133 and everything was going fine. We got the Dragon first and then the Megapithecus, but we noticed that the Manticore wasn't doing much while we were taking them down. We still had 14 minutes when we noticed the Manticore was flying still not doing anything. We tried shooting it and even sending a Dimorphodon at it, but it wouldn't move at all. We decided to wait and when the time ran out, we lost all the dinos and all the loot. I don't know if wildcard can do anything about our losses but this bug needs to be fixed ASAP, we all put a lot of days into the game and losing so much because of an AI bug is really disappointing.

Dungeon Boss Room Bug Well i was doing the dungeon today because its blitz week and the tek tapejara is available again so i entered the dungeon did the waves until i arrived to the boss room well things got pretty hard but i still did it i killed the boss and the remaining minions but it still wont say i cleared the dungeon and still kept saying i need to kill the minions even if there weren't any i even circled the room many times but still no luck all i had to do was die with all my ascendant gears. Thank you P.S i can't attach the screenshot or video of me checking all corners of the room so tell me where i can send the files

looking for group of people to beat the game with. I have been playing ark since 2015/ mostly pvp servers. I am becoming more interested in the story and want to beat all the caves/bosses. don't want to solo. looking for some people to play with and beat the game starting with the Island. (I haven't bought any of the expansions yet)

Best dino for solo boss Ragnarok I want to know what dino is the best for solo ragnarok alpha boss other maps dinos can be included as well, is velona still op?

Valgero Hi everyone I am playing on valgero with my friend and I have brought tek armour over from my extion game play for them but they can't us it as they haven't learnt it so I tried spawning in the bosses for them to hit then I would kill it but I can't seem to get the alpha broodmother to spawn in. Is this a glitch/mistake or can you just not do it.

Ark End-Game-Dinos Since a friend of mine is starting fresh, he asked me what dinos he will need to go for (in terms of trading - Official PVE) to kill all Bosses (aka Endgame/Engrams). So I wanted to hear the opinion from experience people that did it all. He is playing only in a small groupe, consider that it should be possible with 3-4 Players. In my mind, there are 5 essencial Dinos to do it all (I listed the bosses and the dinos that you could buy right now for the most efficiant kill): Island: Broodmother: Rex Ape: Rex Dragon: Rex, Megaloceros, Velo Overseer: Rex, Velo Explanation: Broodmother and Ape are like most bosses an easy kill: Get strong rexes and whistle them to attack your target fight (Why Rexes? you can easily use them for 3 of 4 Bosses on Island, they are super high bred and their high base hp&dmg is all you Need) Since engram changes made the Island Dragon more appealing than just the free kill on Ragnarok, most People seem to struggle with the Alpha kill. My Group (4 Players) did it with Theriz in the beginning, but we changed to the Megaloceros and Velo tactic (since we can kill Alpha Drake with only 4 Players and 4 Dinos (2x Rex, 1xMegalo & 1x Velo). It's far easier than managing a horde of theriz. Plus we don't need to farm a lot (shotgun ammo, Veggi cakes, etc.) For Overseer we are currently only using Rexes and Velos. Velos only to save ammo. 4 Players, everyone on a Velo with 2 rexes to kill Overseer while in boss forms. Ragnarok: Manti & Dragon: Rex Scorched Earth: Manti: Rex Explanation: The currently bred rexes exceed with over 2k dmg (lvled) every dinos there. Just whistle them on attack & you will be able to kill it solo quite easy. Aberration: Rockwell: Rock Drake/Raptor Explanation: I only did Rockwell with Rock Drakes (High dmg Shotguns are prob. the most important part for this fight), but I have seen Videos of People doing it on Raptors only. (Beta atleast solo?!) So in terms of efficiency they maybe outvalue Rock Drakes, since good ones are harder to get). But Maybe you guys have more insight on this. Extinction: Gigas Explanation: Since you need the Meks to kill king Titan, a Giga is the best way to farm Red and Purple OSD and therefore farming Meks. I also wonder about the least amount of people you would need to manage... Center: Rex I only did Center bosses once. It was quite at the beginning of the game & there was a cave like corner where you should just stand shoot with the Action pump gun, without beeing able to get hit (even from the ape's stone toss). Quite an easy solo kill. But things changed for sure. So for dinos: Rexes (Hands down) My list would contain: Rex, Giga, Rock Drake (Raptors?), Megaloceros, Velo Notes: Daedons, Yutis and all other supporting dinos kinda got obsolete in my opinion. They are still usefull, but at this point, dinos are so far bred, that not using them, should not decide if you are able to kill the boss or not. But in terms of efficiancy, a Yuti should always be at the Party If you guys know a more efficiant way, please let me know! I'm eager to hear it

Does anyone know what the diameter of that bubble is in foundations, that teleports you into the boss arena on the Island?

Reading a thread by DJRone89, I loved the great feedback. I'm always looking to find recommendations for dinos to take on bosses. So - I thought I'd try to collect some recommendations into one thread for easier lookup. Stealing Cran3s' answer, I'm starting my list. Please do come with your own suggestions, and with sufficient support, I will edit them into this post. What is needed is: Dino type and for each dino type: number of dinos of this type, minimum health, minimum melee and minimum recommended armour on the saddle. NOTE: Obviously, how well you handle your dinos plays a huge part in this, so have that in mind when going for the bosses - maybe even look at videos of others taking on the bosses to know what to do. This is meant to be a ballpark figure of what to aim at before attempting the bosses and scaled for a solo player - more players means more leeway for errors or lower stats.

beta dragon is there anyone that can help me get the tek engram for the trasmitter, I am level 91 so I only can do the beta dragon and i am on pve.

Looking for boss run Manticore/Dragon Beta PC I need the Tek Transmitter engram and am willing to pay a fair price to anyone who can offer the run. DM using discord Grandmas Blanket#7762

Ragnarok boss Hi everyone In these days I would like to make the boss of ark in alpha in a server pve official for unlock the transmitter and the teletransporter, but I would like to know what strategies, tips and statistics would be necessary to be victorious. I currently have rexes with 50k hp, 1350 melee and ascending mount of 124 armor yuty of 30k hp and 2700 stamina and ascending mount of 94 armor. Is this enough, or should I have another dino, what advice could you give me to do it. Thanks for your attention And sorry for my bad english

I had a cool idea for a new ARK. It would need to be huge and the main draw would be free roaming bosses. Each of the current bosses would have a territory and be ranked from beginner to endgame. Each free roaming boss would be its respective basic forms, gamma i believe, terminals deep in their territories would be used to accept trophies to increase their difficulty level for a limited time. we would have to LITERALLY hunt the bosses to get tek and progress, this would also mean PVE would have to build proper defenses for their bases in and near territory zones. also the ocean and lakes would have a boss as well. also a poisoning effect for sea creatures in river and lake habitats and vice versa, to being in a unhospital habitat. some map specific creatures would be needed too" ORCAs would have a rush ability that would stun a creature when it run in to it and deal additional damage to Sharks (Orcas hunt sharks this way literally just for fun. killerWhale is not a joke name). Another smaller shark, maybe TIGER SHARKs, Rodhocetus, Desmatosuchus, maybe few mythical creatures like HIPPO-CAMPI and THUNDERBIRDs, some ideas for boss territories would be: Volcanic Mountains - DRAGON with weak fire/lightning wyvern minions Dence Rainforest Ruins - MEGAPITHECUS with its usual Gigantopithecus horde Under ground Cave ruins - BROODMOTHER LYSRIX with Arano and Titanomyrma Frozen Northern Plains - new boss idea SAVAGE GIGANOTOSAURUS, solo, (BIGGER, THORNIER, ANGRIER) Abyssal Oceanic Crags - KRAKEN (lest face it we need this) with Ammonite, Eurypterid, Ichthyosaurus and Angler Deep Lake tunnels - LAVIATHAN (Massive Fanged Whale) with sabertooth salmon, Kaprosuchus and leeches Desert/Oasis - MANTICORE with Weak poison Wyvern minions Central Skies - SOLAR PHOENIX solo or with griffons, this one would be HIGH in the skies and usually not be able to seen from the ground its terminal will be the same terminal in the center of the map used to access the OVERSEER end fight. Jet streams will crisscross the Solar Phoenixes area being inside one will keep parachuters hovering, gliders and fliers will recover stamina and gain altitude anyways thats my idea, all the inbetween area would be normal zones but obviously the stronger more powerful dinos would exist in the boss territories

Hello All, First of all, I LOVE The Center map but upon looking at the rewards that bosses yield it seems rather low in comparison to Rag or even the Island bosses. With that being said I have a few questions: 1. How hard is it to kill both bosses with the 807 Rex army + Yuty, if I was to do it solo? 2. Is it worth doing and redoing the bosses on this map for element? 3. Should I reconsider and go to extinction just like everyone else is and farm element veins? My plan is to be able to craft Tek stuff but without having to transfer so many materials from one map to the other. Thank you for time and have a great day!

I heard that you can do the boss fights with rhinos and if so what stats do they need?
