Welcome to ark ,don't go to swamp ,don't go to redwoods,if it looks like it can kill you it will if it doesn't it will still kill you and you will always need more metal
@@hayabusaorlovina2761 first time playing I was living on the beach with a buddy..got mauled by compys as I couldn't figure out how to run (on a console with a controller) and then their raft got taken over by a spino who decided to sit on it and guard the area 😆It was down a river btw, the raft! I told my boyfriend (we didn't know each other back then but when he tried to teach me ark for real on pc I decided to tell him about my first go at ark) and he'll never let me live it down that I died many times to a pack of compys. Btw yes we eventually got our little raft back and the compys were no more! They thought it was funny to just not teach me the controls and watch me struggle, only played for like an hour before I gave up with no idea how to play besides knowing the controls to move, open inventory, basic crafting (crafting a torch), and hitting.
Here’s one that goes hand&hand with the dismounting flyer midair one trying to skim along the water surface and having your mount kick you off and fly in circles while you’re basically stranded in the middle of the ocean at the mercy of megs and the jellyfish
How often this has happened to me. OR dismounting and leaving your flyer on attack mode. Basically you get mauled while the flier just tries to circle the dino and you get no chance of mounting it and flying away. Granted, putting it on passive brings different problems with it but if you are far away from land and need to do quick dismount and mount. If you die then your flyer dies but wellllll yeah.
@@h20sipper6 I agree that rays are a pain but the only time I really had a problem with a ray was when I tried to tame one I was instantly ganged up on and stabbed to death 🤣
This happens to me a lot when I’m playing with my friend because you can’t disable the host barrier on console I’m constantly getting pulled and sometimes I get pulled into water while I’m flying a tame
I remeber once accidentally dismounting from a Pteranodon when I was close to an Obelisk, and this was my first playthrough so I thought for a while that Obelisks just did that normally. Due to this traumatic experience, I never went near an Obelisk again until my friend pointed out that I was just being an idiot.
"Oh hey, this one looks pretty friendly.." Le me, seconds before disaster, in a field of herbivores near the island beach spawn, 2 hours into the game.
Or a kentro. Surely they're the same as stegos, just smaller, right? Then one decides it doesn't like the way you looked at it and HOLY SHIT OW. Herbivore does not always mean non-threatening >.o AND they're social aggro, so when one decides it hates you, the rest gang up on you
I’ve leveled up to near 80 on my single world, and i have a lot of experience. here are some things i’ve personally learned: -Don’t go near anything you don’t know or punch anything you don’t know. -Don’t take any eggs other than passive mob eggs, unless you want to fight. and yes, Pteranodons and iguanodons will attack you when you take their eggs. -Stay away from the redwoods and swamps if you don’t have proper gear. Actually, avoid the swamp altogether unless you can help it. -Take essential gear, but keep your weight down at the same time. don’t take valuables unless you need them. -Avoid griffins at all costs unless you tame them. they can and will kill anything. -Take some time to farm resources. seriously please do it. -Utilize your tames for max benefit. Ankylosaurs are good for metal and stone, Equus are good for land travel, Dire Bears are good with fiber and berries, Pterandons are good for fast sky travel, Tapejaras for sky tames, Argentavis for hunting and sturdier travel, Triceratops for tanks, and many more. that’s all i have for now. i hope this helps
Moschops which don't require saddle and is sometimes easy to tame can gather fiber for beginners. Sarcos scare away piranhas, stegos are amazing for gathering resources after their tlc dont bother with the trikes stegos are much better, iguanadons in my opinion is better for land travel bc their stamina doesn't drain while on all fours. Argy saddles also work as a smithy same as beavers. And well there's a lot more depending on the map
After several years of playing the game, my biggest noob mistake would be thinking that I'm no longer a noob. This game is ruthless, and that is what I love about it.
There's also taking shortcuts across water on the Island or the bog in Gen because the game can always turn into a flying crocodile and piranha horror movie. Especially if you just tamed something cool.
today I was exploring on ark, then a pegomastax came and stole berries from me, ate the berries and decided I was now it's owner. Another one came over and stole stuff I wanted so I chased it, I was then murdered by a sacro, 2 raptors, 2 pirahanas and a titanaboa. I obviously couldn't get my stuff back and the pego died lol.
When i tamed my first rex, I didnt have a saddle for her so i decided id just walk her down the beach to my base and craft it there. Little did I realize that the swamp goes all the way to the edge of the ocean. By the time we got home, she was almost dead. But luckily my bird is a killing machine so we were able to get home at least somewhat safely. I learned a very important lesson that day. Take the long way around when you have new stuff.
@@connienoland8400 Srsly man, being a new player here who has played countless other survival games, ark is easily the best survival game due to these wierd tactics
Yeah this thing will dismount from your dino and kill you like nothing its annoying, But honestly its worth it for how crazy he gather fiber,berries,woods , meat anything but stone stuff off course.
For years I watched ARK before I ever got it. Skip forward to this year, ARK became free for PS+. So I dint make very many noob mistakes but my friends made all of the mistakes on the list. And I would get so mad at them.
My worst mistake ever was thinking that Guillie Suit is not worth using cause the Flack has better Protection. But in ARK what doesn#t notice you can´t kill you.
One of the things in Ark that had me weirded out as hell, was how I ended up farming spoiled meat. For narcotics, of course, but nonetheless it felt weird farming spoiled food. Also don't be fooled, the lake is not a shortcut on any map, unless we're talking speedrunning a death-sentence.
For me my biggest mistake early on was getting attached to my dinos. They all eventually die and it makes you wanna quit. Dont get attached as you quickly learn they are all replaceable
Bro you only dont care because you obv no life tf out of thr game 😭 on normal difficulty taming might take a person hours upon hours of grinding.... I hate ark....but i play everyday 😅😅😅😅
@@elijahjohnston3172 hmmmm good point on the difficulty but I mean I am going to school and working so 🙄 but I also play unofficial which is easier to get everything as I find official boring
I've definitely made made a few of those mistakes 😂 another mistake I made was making a trap to tame my 1st spino and it climbed straight out and ate me! 😱🤣
I'm surprised whistle all isn't in this list. Though it's like dismounting a flyer in mid-air, everyone still does it from time to time, especially on console where whistle one and whistle all are only a slight wiggle of the stick apart.
You've just finished un-cryoing and lining up all your dinos ready for breeding in a non-flyer cave, you take a break and come back and some fucker has whistled follow all, you kick them from tribe and delete game, fin.
A useful tip I've found to reduce whistle all incidents is to set a single dino (or few) that's easy to keep track of and won't get in the way of accidentally whistle follow in it's own whistle group. Whenever you're in your base, always make sure you're on that whistle group. You could also set kibble farm and breeder dinos that you keep out of cryo to not heed any whistle commands.
While force feeding food to tame is a more likely mistake to be made by a new player, accidentally dismounting a flyer is far more disastrous. Even if you survive the fall with a parachute (which I mostly didn't use in the beginning) you still run the risk of landing in the ocean or near dinos that can kill you before your flyer reaches you.
I tend to have my flyer set to follow and Neutral aggression in the off chance I do accidentally dismount. That way, it will follow me down to the ground, and will be able to defend itself should something attack me or it. So far, the only times I've been dismounted from flying is due to server lag log outs.
I'd parachute & whistle to follow (one), the whistle works pretty well even at a distance that is out of range of seeing the tame's name, just gotta be able to aim.
I definitely tried to tame an alpha! Spent hours taming a spino then got it killed attacking an alpha raptor, then tried to tame that alpha on a rock and SHOCKINGLY got nowhere
I don't feel like "Difficulty Slider" is a mistake, it's more of an interface failure from the devs. I'm not bad mouthing their effort in general, but surely there's a better way to do this...
In a debate of semantics, I always chose spawning in the southern regions and staying to the south-southeast, not puzzling together that this was why I always ended up getting mauled by a bary or spino while trying to travel inland, or, perchance, having to walk through the bog to get to the redwoods, and.. getting mauled by everything else.
I used to play a lot of Minecraft with my niece and nephew, when my (then gf) fiancé introduced me to ARK. Any time I wanted to open my inventory while flying, I ended up jumping off my flyer 😂 To this day, I carry parachutes on me at all time
Here’s another one, watch your mount’s stamina. Especially if it’s a flier, there’s nothing more awful than dying because your mount lost all of it’s stamina. I remember the feeling of exhaustion I have while trying to find my ptera after it kicked me out of it’s back due to lack of remaining stamina. I survived my journey to the nearest land, but took me an hour to find my mount.
Last time I got kicked off I was 1000 feet in the air and pulled the plug on my Xbox to avoid the otherwise inevitable death from falling. Now I know that flyers will buck you off when they have no stamina.
Hey raasklaark! I think a mistake that is 99% of the time, overlooked. Is thinking that levels you add to a tame translates over to the babies. Common mistake that i rarely hear about
@@novelgigax9877 Well, your tamed dinos can still damage unconscious dino that's taming, so there's a chance for your Argy to accidentally hit the dino you're taming whenever something decided to trouble you and your Argy if you didn't set it to Passive
I always spawn in the ocean Biome as it's the most peaceful biome out of all Gen1, mostly cause the threats remain in the water and only Timid or passive creatures are on land
@@Ju5t4l1z4rd See? they're just that friendly! And also somewhat braindead. Without something to aggro on they just stand around, ususally hidden in bushes.
@@Ju5t4l1z4rd I spawned right next to one while jumping to Gen1 for a trade, with the trade goods in my inventory. Almost had a heart attack before realizing it was passive and not trying to steal from me
I recently started playing ark. My two biggest mistakes revolved around the same alpha raptor. I was busy taming a raptor and did that succesfully, i found it surprisingly easy and say a red glowing raptor mauling away on a corpse on my right. I shot all the tranq arrows i had left on the raptor with no effect. I moved with my tame and raptor to my base which was close by the alpha and went up to my roof to smelt some stuff. From my roof i had perfect sight on my surroundings and kept looking at the alpha, still busy with the corps, and thought to myself that this certainly must be a glitch. I jumped down from my roof and attacked the alpha raptor, which quickly killed me. Shame, i thought to myself as i rode out from my base on my trike as i respawned, ready for another round with the alpha. I was standing on a hill so i kept yeeting the alpha of as it ran up to my trike, but eventually it got up there and killed my trike and afterwards me. That was when i noticed it was not a regular raptor but an alpha. After a quick google i decided to let it roam around and be very aware of its location. Fast forward two weeks to yesterday, i decided to jump on my raft with my ankylo and farm some rocks along the river. Guess who else was alongside the river, the same alpha (my base is in the little bay on the first spawn on the island, so it's not that far away for the alpha to end up there). Better prepared now with a longneck rifle, pistol and plenty of ammo i decided to start a rematch. I kept shooting the alpha two to three times before rowing a bit further away to the ocean to maintain distance. I actually managed to kill it and get my reward. My victory was short however, as a leedsichthys that had been attacking me earlier decided to destroy what little health was left on my raft, and threw me and my ankylo in the water. That was also my first encounter with the blue jellyfish, and boy do i hate them since both i and my ankylo didn't live to tell the tale.
Not as big of an issue as it used to be but another noob mistake is ignoring your stamina when swimming because you still have Oxygen left. Another is leaving all your dinos, espcially flyers, on attack my target. If you try to tame something they attack and try to kill it, and if you need to make a quick getaway from a baddy you have to get them to either stop fighting it and risk dying or run into the fight you are trying to avoid to try and mount the dino/flyer and if you fail you usually die. Oh and since they updated it, hiding on rocks from medium sized dino or bigger, and a couple of exceptions of smaller dinos, since they can scale the rock easier than you.
Will take all this into consideration when I get my router or 3 GB allowance on mobile as I have pre-paid not post-paid (that being, when you use 30 GB a day)
The noob mistake isn’t dismounting accidentally, it’s not carrying 6 parachutes in your 10th inventory slot at all times after accidentally dismounting midair once, leading to multiple deaths and lots of trouble trying to get your stuff back as a rex, carno, alpha raptor and theri wait at your dead body with the sole purpose of stopping you from recovering that ascendant shotgun you got several days before.
I can still remember playing on the island with a friend and we tried taming an 102 alpha raptor for like 2h, probably died around 40-50 times until we realized that they don't have a torpor bar
Dismounting mid flight is def a noob mistake lol My biggest is going out to tame something and forgetting to bring something, bolas, nets, narcos, kibble, etc. I always forget something lol
1-build a 3x3 using stone walls and railing foundations 2-get on your argy 3-find a casteroid of any level (level does not matter) 4-pick it up and put it in the pen you made 5-it will constantly spawn beaver dams in the pen (it usually takes 3-4 in-game days) 6-do it with 5-6 beavers=boom unlimited cp Tip:when you collect the dam make sure to get all the resources then get out of render then back again so the beaver stops aggro
Here is a tip for you incase you want a certain structure to be useful, if you are playing single player, go into advance setting and scroll til you find passive def, make sure the box is checked as this will allow you to use spike barricades and spike barricades can be very nice as a replacer for walls. Plus Spike barricades are good for obtaining sort of free resources from dinos. Also another thing, Bolas, do not underestimate them, infact I decided to play through scorched earth again recently and used Bolas, it saved my bacon from Terror birds, raptors, hellpigs, and more.
Were it not for my tribe, I would have done every single one of these. Sadly, I'm very guilty of yeeting myself off critters, throwing away charcoal, and trying to force berries into a jerboa when I was starting out. And sadly, several years in and I still yeet off of fliers when I least expect it. I like this list a lot. I feel less alone in my yeeting.
- Not knowing Stegos were the answer to bloodstalkers, kapros, micro raptors, etc etc etc constantly dismounting you. - Not knowing what to do with Leedsys while in a raft - Not knowing Basilos were the Stegos equivalent of the sea (can't be force-dismounted) - Thinking if I crouched in a bush those raptors wouldn't see me. - Not knowing sarcos dismounted you too - Not knowing Otters could farm pearls while in your shoulder - Not knowing that you could take the items from a beaver dam (i thought i had to destroy it first 🙄) - Not knowing items lasted longer on a Dino's inventory And I mean, I could go on and on and on infinitely... Ark is so hard, man...
One of the most annoying mistakes you can make at any level is accidentally hitting J in your base and watching all your egg dinos and fliers spread all over the place, and having to spend ages soring them all out again afterwards.
Number 4 could also be combined with "Trying to tame Event Dinos". First Fear Evolved I was driving myself nuts and pretty much wasted all my time trying so hard to tame a skeleton raptor. Didnt realize they are also like mini bosses, and you can really only kill them and hope for a skin costume look.
If you are new to ark here is some tips: don’t go to snow,sea,lava’s,forests,mountains,caves,swamps,highlands,and redwoods Don’t take any egg’s except if it’s yours. Anything that move is your enemy except a pig,bird,and a lizard everything else is trying to rip your heart off. Anything with claws will kill you but anything without claws will also kill you. If you see A N Y glowing thing run away. Pump lvls into weight movement and health. Stick to the beach and be aware of every pixel that comes in the screen except if you want to die. Don’t search for high lvls because you will never find one. If you get a flyer stay at the air because everything in the ground wants to rip your face off. If you hear noises of roars,trees falling,or any suspicious sounds run. You need a lot of resources. You need a lot of resources. You will never have enough metal. You will never have enough tranq arrows. You won’t get mutations. You will have fun (in some way). You will need a lot of polymer,hide,fiber,metal,pearls,and every other material in the game. You will never find what you want. You need to have a strong armor. You will die with strong armor. Beware of missclicks. And lastly you will never get the ascendant pump shotgun blueprint you want.
The only boss tributes I've ever thrown away are sauropod vertebrae and argentavis talons since both are easy to get lots of (vertebrae drop from lots of decently easy creatures, while argys are common and not difficult to kill)
My first noob mistake was definitely trying to tame an alpha raptor. tried to bola it first. Was hella confused as to why it wasn't working and how it killed me in 3 hits. Then tried to get my revenge by bringing over 4 raptors that were all under lvl 100 and riding my carno that was probably lvl 20 maybe. me and that carno were the only survivors and he had a sliver of health left
When I melted iron, I noticed that sometimes there was a piece of metal left that never melted. I thought it was bugged, and used to trow it away 😂 I was yesterday years old, when I actually countred the ingots I got from 8 metal, that I realised it takes two metal pieces to make an ingot, that's why a single piece will never melt 🤡
Any real survival game player knows to never throw anything away, no matter how early in the game. Stack it all somewhere, because every item has its purpose and it will come into play at some point.
Not a noob mistake but I remember taking a stam break with my Ptera, then a Diplo came and shoved me off the cliff right into a pack of Terror Birds and one Carno. Fun times :)
I kept everything when I first started (now 2k hours under my belt). My constant noob mistake is pulling a Prerafier, and jumping off my base without my sino or a parachute. (I’m probably worse, since I’ve literally whistled my Sinomacrops to follow, thinking it’s my back up one and proceed to hurl myself to my death- I actually did it this morning. 🤣)
I feel good knowing I started a week and a half ago and I have only made one noob mistake. But seriously, leaving your flying Mount while flying?! How do you do that on accident?!
many were not funny at the time, but sure are now that I've learned from them, especially when I hear that I wasn't the only one 😂😂 those stories are the best, thank you for the laughs
The best part is compys running up to you while you’re farming stone or wood. Also with the dismounting while flying…i was usually one to run outta stamina mid flight…usually up near the mesh where you kinda just stand on your tame not knowing what to do
great video these top 10 s are so informative and fun. I don't know if there is enough for 10 but maybe top 10 consumable effect eg blood pack bug repellent cactus broth?
One of my friends plays pvp, and he was telling us about a noob he saw on the pvp servers... Ran right up to a wild giga as if it had been a rex and punched it in the leg. It went about as well as you'd expect, and then the twit was in server chat with "that wasn't a rex!" Dude, gigas look very different from rexes. Always take a good look at the dino, and if it's really big and toothy go the other way FAST
I can't believe it's taking me this long to get into playing the "Ark-Survival" franchise. Everyday is an adventure and you are so right about the mesmerising join of glowing "Troodon" eyes. 😂 ✌️
I made 2: 1. I flyed to close to grownd of swamp as i was laughing at sarcos,carnos, titanoboas and kaprosuchus but one of kapros quicky revenge my flying friend as me too 2. On day i tamed an horse i was so happy of him, Second day my horse nearly died of therizino cuz i thought i could nock him out, the oceon saved me and my horse of that long claw monster
Don’t touch the Bronto…. Or her eggs. The bronto will follow you and end you. I still remember my very first time on the Island and doing this 😂 I am now over 700 hours into Ark and have all the achievements and still remember this first mistake !
Also importent 2 thing in taming for starters You cant tame dinos with stimberrys and narcoberrys And do not force feed stim berrys it will wake the dino up
I remember when i saw cnidaria for the first time in close water, and I thought those were crystals or something what u need for late game, I ofc realised, that they came to me and then I jumped off the water
I remember the first time I encountered an alpha raptor. Just so happened to be when I was looking for raptors to tame. I found it mauling a parasaur carcus. I thought it was a bug. So then I attempted to bola it. Then I got closer,and that was the worst mistake I ever made. Aside from getting close to a therizino.
Take this piece of advice from my time in ARK, if you think you're prepared for Cave delving. That you couldn't POSSIBLY be any more ready ...Spend another several hours getting more ready, Caves will chew you up and spit you out if you are not OVER Prepared. I thought I was ready for a cave on The Island with my extra chunky Sarco and nothing else...and it was mauled to death by bats within moments of hitting up the Artifact of the Massive Cave.
A useful tip for taming concerning with force feeding: if you are quick enough after knocking out a carnivore, you can actually force feed it meat to heal it without lowering its taming effectiveness. This is useful if you almost killed your new prize during knock out, and are worried something may come along and finish it off when you're getting kibble or it's preferred taming food. It's also very useful to heal it so you can start a fresh knock out at full health if something does come along a mess up a perfect tame.
@@Bot-gf2yp That's also true as well, but you also need to tame a snow owl first. Raw meat can be used flexibly and quickly if just starting out, or you don't have access to Snow Owls yet.
My biggest noob mistake was challenging a sarco to a fight when it was biting my base, it chased me and I thankfully lead it to a carbonemys and killed the sarco.
touching water when on top of a flyer. Doing caves unprepared. making 1spike (not knowing it´ll break). logging off when on top of a flyer (youll relog to find yourself killed). nice vid.
Remember there's no need to waste resources on a stone taming trap when taming your first rex/theri/spino/megatherium a thatch trap one wall high will work fine because it's too short to be hit and if it doesn't work the first time just keep trying ark always has its bugs/ bad luck
Set Difficulty Slider hasn't been an issue for me since I'm a Single player type of guy and always set my Difficulty Slider to one regardless of whatever it is I am doing. But, regarding Difficulty, boy oh boy does that make me realize what kind of crap I'm getting myself into by letting Fjordur get a Difficulty Value of 20, meaning each creature can be level 600 at max level excluding Voidwyrms, Wyverns, Rock Drakes and all that fun stuff. Idk if I enjoy pain from ARK or not but I'm gonna get it from Fjordur that's for certain. *salutes my sanity and life* It was an honor, sir.
Can you give me us personal top ten? Your 10 or 5 favorite moments you personally experienced? Top 10 favorite dinos? Something not communicty voted but your favorite?!?!
Hehe. I remember running into my first thylacoleo. I was setting up another base, but in the redwoods. I saw something weird on a tree, all black. Grabbed my Argent to take a closer look, and I get jumpscared. I died, but my Argent was able to kill it.
Dismounting a flier has evolved from a noob mistake to a mis hit button when you try to access its inventory and accidently press E instead of F... I was on my way to a damn Cave run when I yeeted myself off my Argie and also deployed my Sabre in a frantic panic and lost it all... safe to say I started a new game after that.
Yeah I agree with comments, dismounting a flyer mid air isn't a noob mistake. It's not something anyone does believing it's a good idea, like trying to tame an alpha. It's just a regular mistake that happens to everyone eventually.
My biggest mistake was not pausing the game when I didn’t played it even for a short time in like 30 second my pterodactyl landed in front of a carno and died
Not trapping dinos I didn’t used to know it was possible until my friend showed me a video on it I used to chance level 50 argys for an hour or two, now I stick 150s in gates and they’re out in 3 minutes!
Probably my biggest mistake was not taming dinos until after I unlocked and crafted a saddle for them, and ofc not taming dilos or compys since I obviously couldn't mount them. Eventually I learned I could use them other than just mounts, so now my first few tames are dilos and turtles as my personal bodyguards
I definitely did the throwing away rotten meat early one. I eventually just got lazy and stopped tossing it away, boy I'm glad I did cause that saved me soooo much waiting Oh and you forgot the whistle feature while mounted
Add in flying too low over areas you havent explored on a pvp server. When the lag stops you and your tame will probably then realise why the huge base with all those turrets were taking so long to load...😅
I got quite a few. Don't build turrets or a big base if you're on solo official PVP. 1x1 stone building. Storage as pestles as they're small, compact, and hard to locate, and bury your cryopods in small storage boxes underwater. Refresh your pods. And my worst, coming underprepared for any tame. If Dododex says 30 tranqs I bring 60. I actually quit PVP, but it was on good terms. 3+ months no raid, no turrets and all my tames.
Welcome to ark ,don't go to swamp ,don't go to redwoods,if it looks like it can kill you it will if it doesn't it will still kill you and you will always need more metal
Don't go to snow, don't go to water, don't go to deep caves, don't go to highest mountain full of metal. Yeah

Here’s one that goes hand&hand with the dismounting flyer midair one trying to skim along the water surface and having your mount kick you off and fly in circles while you’re basically stranded in the middle of the ocean at the mercy of megs and the jellyfish
How often this has happened to me. OR dismounting and leaving your flyer on attack mode. Basically you get mauled while the flier just tries to circle the dino and you get no chance of mounting it and flying away. Granted, putting it on passive brings different problems with it but if you are far away from land and need to do quick dismount and mount. If you die then your flyer dies but wellllll yeah.
Rays
@@h20sipper6 I agree that rays are a pain but the only time I really had a problem with a ray was when I tried to tame one I was instantly ganged up on and stabbed to death 🤣

Due to this traumatic experience, I never went near an Obelisk again until my friend pointed out that I was just being an idiot.

"oh looks cute lemme go near it :)"
*Why do I hear boss music*
I’ve leveled up to near 80 on my single world, and i have a lot of experience. here are some things i’ve personally learned:
-Don’t go near anything you don’t know or punch anything you don’t know.
-Don’t take any eggs other than passive mob eggs, unless you want to fight. and yes, Pteranodons and iguanodons will attack you when you take their eggs.
-Stay away from the redwoods and swamps if you don’t have proper gear. Actually, avoid the swamp altogether unless you can help it.
-Take essential gear, but keep your weight down at the same time. don’t take valuables unless you need them.
-Avoid griffins at all costs unless you tame them. they can and will kill anything.
-Take some time to farm resources. seriously please do it.
-Utilize your tames for max benefit. Ankylosaurs are good for metal and stone, Equus are good for land travel, Dire Bears are good with fiber and berries, Pterandons are good for fast sky travel, Tapejaras for sky tames, Argentavis for hunting and sturdier travel, Triceratops for tanks, and many more.

@@lucianshears9873 yeah Anky for metal, Deo for stone.
Moschops which don't require saddle and is sometimes easy to tame can gather fiber for beginners. Sarcos scare away piranhas, stegos are amazing for gathering resources after their tlc dont bother with the trikes stegos are much better, iguanadons in my opinion is better for land travel bc their stamina doesn't drain while on all fours. Argy saddles also work as a smithy same as beavers. And well there's a lot more depending on the map
After several years of playing the game, my biggest noob mistake would be thinking that I'm no longer a noob. This game is ruthless, and that is what I love about it.
True i playing it for 1 month and one day i accidently uninstalled the game and i installed it again and i am trying again but i am still noob
True i playing it for 1 month and one day i accidently uninstalled the game and i installed it again and i am trying again but i am still noob
There's also taking shortcuts across water on the Island or the bog in Gen because the game can always turn into a flying crocodile and piranha horror movie. Especially if you just tamed something cool.
today I was exploring on ark, then a pegomastax came and stole berries from me, ate the berries and decided I was now it's owner. Another one came over and stole stuff I wanted so I chased it, I was then murdered by a sacro, 2 raptors, 2 pirahanas and a titanaboa. I obviously couldn't get my stuff back and the pego died lol.
When i tamed my first rex, I didnt have a saddle for her so i decided id just walk her down the beach to my base and craft it there. Little did I realize that the swamp goes all the way to the edge of the ocean. By the time we got home, she was almost dead. But luckily my bird is a killing machine so we were able to get home at least somewhat safely.
I learned a very important lesson that day. Take the long way around when you have new stuff.

Srsly man, being a new player here who has played countless other survival games, ark is easily the best survival game due to these wierd tactics
Ong this happened to me in Crystal isles when I was following a friend. It genuinely scared tf outta me 😂
Top Ten Dinos you SHOULD NOT approach unprepared.
*Number one: Therzinosaur*
*Giga?*
Dodo
the number of times ive had my base destroyed and killed while offline by these guys still haunts me.......
Yeah this thing will dismount from your dino and kill you like nothing its annoying,
But honestly its worth it for how crazy he gather fiber,berries,woods , meat anything but stone stuff off course.
I got a therizonozaus at low level. It got stuck between two trees. So I just spammed tranq arrows in it's face as it ran in place.

Oh no, now the level 4 bronto is only getting 1 extra level instead of 2.
Absolutely ruined!
Why r u taming a lvl 4 bronto....
For years I watched ARK before I ever got it. Skip forward to this year, ARK became free for PS+. So I dint make very many noob mistakes but my friends made all of the mistakes on the list. And I would get so mad at them.
lol
me too, I watch it since the release but I play it since 2019
My worst mistake ever was thinking that Guillie Suit is not worth using cause the Flack has better Protection. But in ARK what doesn#t notice you can´t kill you.
Thank you, I didnt know that actually makes a difference and was never gonna build guillie 😅
One of the things in Ark that had me weirded out as hell, was how I ended up farming spoiled meat. For narcotics, of course, but nonetheless it felt weird farming spoiled food. Also don't be fooled, the lake is not a shortcut on any map, unless we're talking speedrunning a death-sentence.
Those greenish rotten steaks were like gold. Lol
@@Fergus-H-MacLeod couldn't agree more

For me my biggest mistake early on was getting attached to my dinos. They all eventually die and it makes you wanna quit. Dont get attached as you quickly learn they are all replaceable

I've definitely made made a few of those mistakes 😂 another mistake I made was making a trap to tame my 1st spino and it climbed straight out and ate me! 😱🤣
I'm surprised whistle all isn't in this list. Though it's like dismounting a flyer in mid-air, everyone still does it from time to time, especially on console where whistle one and whistle all are only a slight wiggle of the stick apart.
You've just finished un-cryoing and lining up all your dinos ready for breeding in a non-flyer cave, you take a break and come back and some fucker has whistled follow all, you kick them from tribe and delete game, fin.
A useful tip I've found to reduce whistle all incidents is to set a single dino (or few) that's easy to keep track of and won't get in the way of accidentally whistle follow in it's own whistle group. Whenever you're in your base, always make sure you're on that whistle group.
You could also set kibble farm and breeder dinos that you keep out of cryo to not heed any whistle commands.
While force feeding food to tame is a more likely mistake to be made by a new player, accidentally dismounting a flyer is far more disastrous. Even if you survive the fall with a parachute (which I mostly didn't use in the beginning) you still run the risk of landing in the ocean or near dinos that can kill you before your flyer reaches you.
Just upgrade movement speed on yourself
I tend to have my flyer set to follow and Neutral aggression in the off chance I do accidentally dismount. That way, it will follow me down to the ground, and will be able to defend itself should something attack me or it. So far, the only times I've been dismounted from flying is due to server lag log outs.
Ps4 not sure if other consoles are crappy, can just spam inv to extend jump distances / delete fall dmg
I'd parachute & whistle to follow (one), the whistle works pretty well even at a distance that is out of range of seeing the tame's name, just gotta be able to aim.
Having the server restart/shutdown while you are flying is the purist form of panic to exist in gaming.
I definitely tried to tame an alpha! Spent hours taming a spino then got it killed attacking an alpha raptor, then tried to tame that alpha on a rock and SHOCKINGLY got nowhere
I can heavily relate to this but it was an alpha carno
I tried this with an Alpha T-Rex big fail
Tried taming an alpha raptor. Fortunately I had a pretty beefed up spino with me who killed it after I died
I don't feel like "Difficulty Slider" is a mistake, it's more of an interface failure from the devs. I'm not bad mouthing their effort in general, but surely there's a better way to do this...
In a debate of semantics, I always chose spawning in the southern regions and staying to the south-southeast, not puzzling together that this was why I always ended up getting mauled by a bary or spino while trying to travel inland, or, perchance, having to walk through the bog to get to the redwoods, and.. getting mauled by everything else.
I used to play a lot of Minecraft with my niece and nephew, when my (then gf) fiancé introduced me to ARK.
Any time I wanted to open my inventory while flying, I ended up jumping off my flyer 😂
To this day, I carry parachutes on me at all time
Here’s another one, watch your mount’s stamina. Especially if it’s a flier, there’s nothing more awful than dying because your mount lost all of it’s stamina.
I remember the feeling of exhaustion I have while trying to find my ptera after it kicked me out of it’s back due to lack of remaining stamina. I survived my journey to the nearest land, but took me an hour to find my mount.
Oh yeah, their stamina was awful.
Last time I got kicked off I was 1000 feet in the air and pulled the plug on my Xbox to avoid the otherwise inevitable death from falling.
Now I know that flyers will buck you off when they have no stamina.
@@wrathofainz idk if it's different on Xbox but fliers don't kick you off, they just slowly land. Maybe you pressed the dismount button on accident?
@@mreli_ I was extremely high up in the air. Try that. Just fly straight up until your mount is tired and see if it'll boot you.
@@wrathofainz I'll do that when I can I guess, I'm on aberration atm so no fliers ofc

Hey raasklaark!
I think a mistake that is 99% of the time, overlooked. Is thinking that levels you add to a tame translates over to the babies. Common mistake that i rarely hear about
not putting tames on passive when your taming a creature. nothing worse than your argy killing that anky your taming when it hits u
this is me at the begining of ark gaming
Huh? Arge dont hit ankys.
@@novelgigax9877 Well, your tamed dinos can still damage unconscious dino that's taming, so there's a chance for your Argy to accidentally hit the dino you're taming whenever something decided to trouble you and your Argy if you didn't set it to Passive
the triceratops doesn't care if you were just trying to punch the dodo that ran under of it.
I always spawn in the ocean Biome as it's the most peaceful biome out of all Gen1, mostly cause the threats remain in the water and only Timid or passive creatures are on land
They even went so far as making any and all pegos spawned there friendly.
I also spawn there to farm manta ray racing mission.
@@macroglossumstellatarum5932 I never seen pegos on the ocean biome
@@Ju5t4l1z4rd See? they're just that friendly! And also somewhat braindead. Without something to aggro on they just stand around, ususally hidden in bushes.
@@Ju5t4l1z4rd I spawned right next to one while jumping to Gen1 for a trade, with the trade goods in my inventory. Almost had a heart attack before realizing it was passive and not trying to steal from me
I recently started playing ark. My two biggest mistakes revolved around the same alpha raptor. I was busy taming a raptor and did that succesfully, i found it surprisingly easy and say a red glowing raptor mauling away on a corpse on my right. I shot all the tranq arrows i had left on the raptor with no effect. I moved with my tame and raptor to my base which was close by the alpha and went up to my roof to smelt some stuff. From my roof i had perfect sight on my surroundings and kept looking at the alpha, still busy with the corps, and thought to myself that this certainly must be a glitch. I jumped down from my roof and attacked the alpha raptor, which quickly killed me. Shame, i thought to myself as i rode out from my base on my trike as i respawned, ready for another round with the alpha. I was standing on a hill so i kept yeeting the alpha of as it ran up to my trike, but eventually it got up there and killed my trike and afterwards me. That was when i noticed it was not a regular raptor but an alpha. After a quick google i decided to let it roam around and be very aware of its location.
Fast forward two weeks to yesterday, i decided to jump on my raft with my ankylo and farm some rocks along the river. Guess who else was alongside the river, the same alpha (my base is in the little bay on the first spawn on the island, so it's not that far away for the alpha to end up there). Better prepared now with a longneck rifle, pistol and plenty of ammo i decided to start a rematch. I kept shooting the alpha two to three times before rowing a bit further away to the ocean to maintain distance. I actually managed to kill it and get my reward. My victory was short however, as a leedsichthys that had been attacking me earlier decided to destroy what little health was left on my raft, and threw me and my ankylo in the water. That was also my first encounter with the blue jellyfish, and boy do i hate them since both i and my ankylo didn't live to tell the tale.
Man this is a whole sad story.
@@SaianshJena there's no happy ending in Ark buddy.
Not as big of an issue as it used to be but another noob mistake is ignoring your stamina when swimming because you still have Oxygen left.
Another is leaving all your dinos, espcially flyers, on attack my target. If you try to tame something they attack and try to kill it, and if you need to make a quick getaway from a baddy you have to get them to either stop fighting it and risk dying or run into the fight you are trying to avoid to try and mount the dino/flyer and if you fail you usually die.
Oh and since they updated it, hiding on rocks from medium sized dino or bigger, and a couple of exceptions of smaller dinos, since they can scale the rock easier than you.
I can’t see my stamina bar because my tv is too small 😂
@@zonalpiglin doesn't the console have ui scaling?
@@zonalpiglin You can fix it from tv settings
Will take all this into consideration when I get my router or 3 GB allowance on mobile as I have pre-paid not post-paid (that being, when you use 30 GB a day)
How is touching the water while on a flyer not in here.
The noob mistake isn’t dismounting accidentally, it’s not carrying 6 parachutes in your 10th inventory slot at all times after accidentally dismounting midair once, leading to multiple deaths and lots of trouble trying to get your stuff back as a rex, carno, alpha raptor and theri wait at your dead body with the sole purpose of stopping you from recovering that ascendant shotgun you got several days before.
Now there is another noob mistake, don't put anything other then berries in the 10th slot. Pegos will target that slot and won't steal your good gear.
If you don't want to lose your tools, stay on casual mode.
I can still remember playing on the island with a friend and we tried taming an 102 alpha raptor for like 2h, probably died around 40-50 times until we realized that they don't have a torpor bar
Along with apex items is most new players don't realize their creatures won't pick them up after a certain weight.
I honestly feel like knocking out passive tames is one of the most common mistakes
Dismounting mid flight is def a noob mistake lol
My biggest is going out to tame something and forgetting to bring something, bolas, nets, narcos, kibble, etc. I always forget something lol
Still do it from time to time 😂
My biggest noob mistake?
Either underestimating the caves or trying to tame a Seagull like a pego, lost a lot of mutton that day.
Pelagornis isn't very good anyway. I only got one cuz their wings look cool 😂
1-build a 3x3 using stone walls and railing foundations
2-get on your argy
3-find a casteroid of any level (level does not matter)
4-pick it up and put it in the pen you made
5-it will constantly spawn beaver dams in the pen (it usually takes 3-4 in-game days)
6-do it with 5-6 beavers=boom unlimited cp
Tip:when you collect the dam make sure to get all the resources then get out of render then back again so the beaver stops aggro
Here is a tip for you incase you want a certain structure to be useful, if you are playing single player, go into advance setting and scroll til you find passive def, make sure the box is checked as this will allow you to use spike barricades and spike barricades can be very nice as a replacer for walls.
Plus Spike barricades are good for obtaining sort of free resources from dinos.
Also another thing, Bolas, do not underestimate them, infact I decided to play through scorched earth again recently and used Bolas, it saved my bacon from Terror birds, raptors, hellpigs, and more.
This is why a raptor is great i can solo a cave with my level 50 raptor just spamming the skill
Were it not for my tribe, I would have done every single one of these. Sadly, I'm very guilty of yeeting myself off critters, throwing away charcoal, and trying to force berries into a jerboa when I was starting out. And sadly, several years in and I still yeet off of fliers when I least expect it. I like this list a lot. I feel less alone in my yeeting.
- Not knowing Stegos were the answer to bloodstalkers, kapros, micro raptors, etc etc etc constantly dismounting you.
- Not knowing what to do with Leedsys while in a raft
- Not knowing Basilos were the Stegos equivalent of the sea (can't be force-dismounted)
- Thinking if I crouched in a bush those raptors wouldn't see me.
- Not knowing sarcos dismounted you too
- Not knowing Otters could farm pearls while in your shoulder
- Not knowing that you could take the items from a beaver dam (i thought i had to destroy it first 🙄)
- Not knowing items lasted longer on a Dino's inventory
And I mean, I could go on and on and on infinitely... Ark is so hard, man...
I never toss out charcoal, but when 6 of my dinos have 600 spoiled meat each, I tend to get rid of some of it
Au 🙂🙂😄🙂😁😁😁😁😄😄😄
One of the most annoying mistakes you can make at any level is accidentally hitting J in your base and watching all your egg dinos and fliers spread all over the place, and having to spend ages soring them all out again afterwards.
im a console player so could somebody please translate
@@Epitome370 he pressed on whisle all
@@adonis9322 thanks
Before playing the video I can already tell that force feeding creatures while taming them is gonna be on the list
Number 4 could also be combined with "Trying to tame Event Dinos". First Fear Evolved I was driving myself nuts and pretty much wasted all my time trying so hard to tame a skeleton raptor. Didnt realize they are also like mini bosses, and you can really only kill them and hope for a skin costume look.
We have all felt that time flying on your flyer accidentally press dismount button over the ocean
If you are new to ark here is some tips: don’t go to snow,sea,lava’s,forests,mountains,caves,swamps,highlands,and redwoods
Don’t take any egg’s except if it’s yours.
Anything that move is your enemy except a pig,bird,and a lizard everything else is trying to rip your heart off.
Anything with claws will kill you but anything without claws will also kill you.
If you see A N Y glowing thing run away.
Pump lvls into weight movement and health.
Stick to the beach and be aware of every pixel that comes in the screen except if you want to die.
Don’t search for high lvls because you will never find one.
If you get a flyer stay at the air because everything in the ground wants to rip your face off.
If you hear noises of roars,trees falling,or any suspicious sounds run.
You need a lot of resources.
You need a lot of resources.
You will never have enough metal.
You will never have enough tranq arrows.
You won’t get mutations.
You will have fun (in some way).
You will need a lot of polymer,hide,fiber,metal,pearls,and every other material in the game.
You will never find what you want.
You need to have a strong armor.
You will die with strong armor.
Beware of missclicks.
And lastly you will never get the ascendant pump shotgun blueprint you want.
The only boss tributes I've ever thrown away are sauropod vertebrae and argentavis talons since both are easy to get lots of (vertebrae drop from lots of decently easy creatures, while argys are common and not difficult to kill)
My first noob mistake was definitely trying to tame an alpha raptor. tried to bola it first. Was hella confused as to why it wasn't working and how it killed me in 3 hits. Then tried to get my revenge by bringing over 4 raptors that were all under lvl 100 and riding my carno that was probably lvl 20 maybe. me and that carno were the only survivors and he had a sliver of health left
I, too, saw the red glow of death for the first time and lost 3 Pteras because of my foolishness 😢 They are f-ing fast
When I melted iron, I noticed that sometimes there was a piece of metal left that never melted. I thought it was bugged, and used to trow it away 😂 I was yesterday years old, when I actually countred the ingots I got from 8 metal, that I realised it takes two metal pieces to make an ingot, that's why a single piece will never melt 🤡
i now know this
It wasn't until I got the industrial forge, and even more metal was being uncooked, that I figured this out.
Any real survival game player knows to never throw anything away, no matter how early in the game. Stack it all somewhere, because every item has its purpose and it will come into play at some point.
Welcome to Ark! You have one male for breeding and you ride it only for the Dino to get killed. The Dino left two widows!
Not a noob mistake but I remember taking a stam break with my Ptera, then a Diplo came and shoved me off the cliff right into a pack of Terror Birds and one Carno.
Fun times :)
Tip: look around before building a base, dont make it near a spinosaurus like i did
I kept everything when I first started (now 2k hours under my belt). My constant noob mistake is pulling a Prerafier, and jumping off my base without my sino or a parachute. (I’m probably worse, since I’ve literally whistled my Sinomacrops to follow, thinking it’s my back up one and proceed to hurl myself to my death- I actually did it this morning. 🤣)
When edit doesn’t work- Pterafier*
Taming too much too quick is my biggest noob mistake.. get overwhelmed with Dino’s too early on with no cryo pods lol
I feel good knowing I started a week and a half ago and I have only made one noob mistake. But seriously, leaving your flying Mount while flying?! How do you do that on accident?!
many were not funny at the time, but sure are now that I've learned from them, especially when I hear that I wasn't the only one 😂😂 those stories are the best, thank you for the laughs
The best part is compys running up to you while you’re farming stone or wood. Also with the dismounting while flying…i was usually one to run outta stamina mid flight…usually up near the mesh where you kinda just stand on your tame not knowing what to do
great video these top 10 s are so informative and fun. I don't know if there is enough for 10 but maybe top 10 consumable effect eg blood pack bug repellent cactus broth?
One of my friends plays pvp, and he was telling us about a noob he saw on the pvp servers... Ran right up to a wild giga as if it had been a rex and punched it in the leg. It went about as well as you'd expect, and then the twit was in server chat with "that wasn't a rex!" Dude, gigas look very different from rexes. Always take a good look at the dino, and if it's really big and toothy go the other way FAST
I can't believe it's taking me this long to get into playing the "Ark-Survival" franchise. Everyday is an adventure and you are so right about the mesmerising join of glowing "Troodon" eyes. 😂 ✌️
I made 2:
1. I flyed to close to grownd of swamp as i was laughing at sarcos,carnos, titanoboas and kaprosuchus but one of kapros quicky revenge my flying friend as me too
2. On day i tamed an horse i was so happy of him, Second day my horse nearly died of therizino cuz i thought i could nock him out, the oceon saved me and my horse of that long claw monster
Accidentally Dismounting a flier mid air but land in water: 😌
Seeing a lot of high lvl megs swimming towards you: 😱
6:33 Wait, what's the "Surviving from Lvl 1" mistake supposed to mean?
Don’t touch the Bronto…. Or her eggs. The bronto will follow you and end you. I still remember my very first time on the Island and doing this 😂 I am now over 700 hours into Ark and have all the achievements and still remember this first mistake !
Also importent 2 thing in taming for starters
You cant tame dinos with stimberrys and narcoberrys
And do not force feed stim berrys it will wake the dino up
When I was playing ARK in my friend's PS5, I tried to drop the feces but instead I actually ate it. I died of poisoning.
1 word: therizinosaurus
It killed my all first dilos when i was new
I actually really enjoy running off into the wilderness unprepared and seeing how long I survive XD
I remember when i saw cnidaria for the first time in close water, and I thought those were crystals or something what u need for late game, I ofc realised, that they came to me and then I jumped off the water
Great video as always keep up the good work
I remember the first time I encountered an alpha raptor. Just so happened to be when I was looking for raptors to tame. I found it mauling a parasaur carcus. I thought it was a bug. So then I attempted to bola it. Then I got closer,and that was the worst mistake I ever made. Aside from getting close to a therizino.
You can unlock every engram if u ascend on the island scorched and aberration cuz I unlocked every engram before killing the king titan
Take this piece of advice from my time in ARK, if you think you're prepared for Cave delving.
That you couldn't POSSIBLY be any more ready
...Spend another several hours getting more ready, Caves will chew you up and spit you out if you are not OVER Prepared.
I thought I was ready for a cave on The Island with my extra chunky Sarco and nothing else...and it was mauled to death by bats within moments of hitting up the Artifact of the Massive Cave.
ive been playing since 2018 and last week i found out that you can drink from the ocean without diving in completely..
A useful tip for taming concerning with force feeding: if you are quick enough after knocking out a carnivore, you can actually force feed it meat to heal it without lowering its taming effectiveness.
This is useful if you almost killed your new prize during knock out, and are worried something may come along and finish it off when you're getting kibble or it's preferred taming food.
It's also very useful to heal it so you can start a fresh knock out at full health if something does come along a mess up a perfect tame.
you can heal wild creatures with snow owls, did this with an angler mid knockout process because my crossbow was too strong.
@@Bot-gf2yp
That's also true as well, but you also need to tame a snow owl first.
Raw meat can be used flexibly and quickly if just starting out, or you don't have access to Snow Owls yet.
Thank you! Using these tips in my new play through. Would love you to watch!
My biggest noob mistake was challenging a sarco to a fight when it was biting my base, it chased me and I thankfully lead it to a carbonemys and killed the sarco.
Challenging a sarco is not really a mistake in my opinion, as I know how to fight it with early game tools, even the high level sarco
touching water when on top of a flyer. Doing caves unprepared. making 1spike (not knowing it´ll break). logging off when on top of a flyer (youll relog to find yourself killed). nice vid.
*spear, not spike.
Remember there's no need to waste resources on a stone taming trap when taming your first rex/theri/spino/megatherium a thatch trap one wall high will work fine because it's too short to be hit and if it doesn't work the first time just keep trying ark always has its bugs/ bad luck
0:15 0:16 0:17 0:17 my biggest mistake was punching a Brongto and not hiding when I just started the game an hour ago
I left my tribe after hours of work.
And?
Set Difficulty Slider hasn't been an issue for me since I'm a Single player type of guy and always set my Difficulty Slider to one regardless of whatever it is I am doing. But, regarding Difficulty, boy oh boy does that make me realize what kind of crap I'm getting myself into by letting Fjordur get a Difficulty Value of 20, meaning each creature can be level 600 at max level excluding Voidwyrms, Wyverns, Rock Drakes and all that fun stuff. Idk if I enjoy pain from ARK or not but I'm gonna get it from Fjordur that's for certain.
*salutes my sanity and life* It was an honor, sir.
lol maybe i'm a glutton for punishment but i always set mine as high as it'll go for the higher level dino tames
Top ten hardest Alpha Bossfights in ARK?
Solid start, my son will need this.
When i started to play ark, i tried to bola and tame an alfa raptor🤣🤣🤣
Just came across Ur channel and gotta say I'm loving the name of the channel
Please Don’t bully Me for this but when i started playing aberration i threw away a alpha karkinos Claw
I tried once to tame alpha carno when i was at 2 months of playing ark without any guides and singleplayer
that must felt painful when learning you need one
How about removing a floor section without checking what it's supporting...and losing half your house in the process. 😑
You always replace, never demolish 😊
Can you give me us personal top ten? Your 10 or 5 favorite moments you personally experienced? Top 10 favorite dinos? Something not communicty voted but your favorite?!?!
Hehe. I remember running into my first thylacoleo.
I was setting up another base, but in the redwoods. I saw something weird on a tree, all black. Grabbed my Argent to take a closer look, and I get jumpscared. I died, but my Argent was able to kill it.
Dismounting a flier has evolved from a noob mistake to a mis hit button when you try to access its inventory and accidently press E instead of F... I was on my way to a damn Cave run when I yeeted myself off my Argie and also deployed my Sabre in a frantic panic and lost it all... safe to say I started a new game after that.
The real biggest noob mistake is trusting other players.
Yeah I agree with comments, dismounting a flyer mid air isn't a noob mistake. It's not something anyone does believing it's a good idea, like trying to tame an alpha. It's just a regular mistake that happens to everyone eventually.
My biggest mistake was not pausing the game when I didn’t played it even for a short time in like 30 second my pterodactyl landed in front of a carno and died
Not trapping dinos
I didn’t used to know it was possible until my friend showed me a video on it
I used to chance level 50 argys for an hour or two, now I stick 150s in gates and they’re out in 3 minutes!
Probably my biggest mistake was not taming dinos until after I unlocked and crafted a saddle for them, and ofc not taming dilos or compys since I obviously couldn't mount them. Eventually I learned I could use them other than just mounts, so now my first few tames are dilos and turtles as my personal bodyguards
I definitely did the throwing away rotten meat early one. I eventually just got lazy and stopped tossing it away, boy I'm glad I did cause that saved me soooo much waiting
Oh and you forgot the whistle feature while mounted
Add in flying too low over areas you havent explored on a pvp server. When the lag stops you and your tame will probably then realise why the huge base with all those turrets were taking so long to load...😅
I got quite a few. Don't build turrets or a big base if you're on solo official PVP. 1x1 stone building. Storage as pestles as they're small, compact, and hard to locate, and bury your cryopods in small storage boxes underwater. Refresh your pods. And my worst, coming underprepared for any tame. If Dododex says 30 tranqs I bring 60. I actually quit PVP, but it was on good terms. 3+ months no raid, no turrets and all my tames.
there is no way that im the only one having weird days just wanting to come back to ark
Same
