I wish the longneck reload time would be shaved a tiny bit, it's like it runs in slomo lol.
Or it had a little work around like the Pump-Action Shotgun reloading way faster in 3rd person mode.
@@TheGayling2 thats just an exploit
Yeah without biotoxin its a slower torpor rate than using a normal bow with tranqs
Haven’t played ark in a while miss the content nooblets!
Agreed!

I love Ark, but unless you’re content to PvE servers or single player, it’s a younger man’s game. When I was a hardcore teenage gamer blasting it up on games like Pandemic Studios’ Battlefront and Battlefield 2, and with fewer responsibilities, I’d still be playing. Ark is literally a game from my childhood dreams.
However, with a wife, two kids, and a small business to take care of, I have been relinquished to a state more akin to a “casual” gamer. If it weren’t for the vulnerability whilst offline, perhaps I could manage it, but otherwise, Ark PvP is like having a parallel life altogether, and I need my sleep.
There is an online app called “Dodex” and it tells you how much tranqs it will take to knock any Dino and how long it will take to tame. It’s pretty accurate. I can feel nooblets is getting bored in ark sense he has started from scratch like 7 times and beat the game many times too. He’s built big bases and tamed all there is to tame. When gen 2 comes out i can almost guarantee all his ark content will be on gen 2
@@blasterbrain1443 there’s lots of different unofficial servers with offline protection or no damage to structures. I used to play offlicial pvp for years but as you said, it’s like a second job or life really.
I'd love to see a mantis wielding clubs in your upcoming animal test of this. Great work!
The fact that you have barely changed for over 5 years is amazing! Keep up the awsome guides and videos, Bro.
Our willing test subjects,
THE NEXT SECOND
I spawned them in
Excellent video on tranq facts. I reckon there's a lot of players who don't know precisely those stats and for me this info was invaluable. Not long ago I went for a weekend break and discovered I had nearly missed your last video. After recovering from the shock, I have decided never to go on a weekend break again lol. The bee taming was another one that I never knew. I've been subbed for many years now and still get surprised at how you manage to find good videos to post. Ty for taking the time and hope you never stop. :)
what i was thinking was why would u need to do this when u can always check dododex
That surely has to be tested by someone?
@@kwkwkwkw6411 I hope you know someone didn’t test ever single one of those calculations on there. There’s this thing called math
Sometimes it just helps seeing people do it instead of just reading about jt
@@tubr109 never heard of it
You do sound amazing as always Steve. Thanks for your content 😁✌
Super spy glass if only consoles had that . Horse is awesome for knocking things out
You forgot to use the slingshot. I want to know how many stones it takes to knockout a max level Rex 😂
the rex will die from the damage before it gets knocked out. it takes around 800 stones if i remember correctly
@@Aeri_shiro nah you just feed it something to heal it or hit it with the snow owl heal then go back to the slingshot 😭
@@TheGayling2 if you have a snow owl, don't use a slingshot lol
@@martinjackulik2819 i'm not saying that you should do it 😂 i just wanted to know.
Very helpful, informative, and well put together. Can't wait to see the next one and see those rexes fight all those!
"this one's got white on his head. looks like loads of seagulls have pewped on him." --- LOL. that got me good.
"Willing test subjects"
He says while they struggle to get out of the traps, lol
Great video Steve.
Would also like to see how much difference using ascendant quality weapons would make compared to the prim.
Very much looking forward to the next video on the torpor inducing creatures.
Would also be interesting to see how much difference pumping melee into them makes compared to a low melee tame.
I found that pumping melee into a frog, often killed the dino I was trying to tame before it got knocked out, so I mix it up a little with frog, then finish with tranqs.
Would be interesting to see a controlled test.
Thanks mate.
For everyone on xbox, due to the last update there is a chance that you will lose your singleplayer save files, it might be smarter to wait with playing till there is more info available, steve if you read this, could you maybe pin it or make a vid/post about it so more people can see?(i lost 272 hours of singleplayer data to this and i don't want other people to go through that)
Always nice to see ya still posting Ark stuff Steve mate!
Here's one ya might be able to help me out with, I can't 100% make my mind up what is best to arm my mantis with. All out power with swords or give them a decent pick so they attack armour first. Any thoughts?
Do a titanosaur taming video.
Pretty much for tranqs
Lowest ➡️highest engrams is best.
Weapon quality is really the key for best results.
Crossbows(avoid on low health creatures)
Darts are best.
The harpoon gun is usually underrated in pvp but I started crafting them after I saw how much damage it does to dinos.
The only problem with this test is that the stats of a 150 rex are not static. A level 150 just means it has had 149 level points into it's stats randomly. Because the stats are random after level 1, it is completely possible(although unlikely) to get a shitty level 150 rex with 50 points into food and oxygen and 49 into weight. This means if you use tranq arrows on a high level rex that has a low amount of points into it health stat might die.
How do you see it's torpor with spyglass?
Dododex
Plus Steve was spamming arrows instead of doing a 6 count between shots to gain max torpor and min damage overall.
Just use Dododex 👍
More ark please
I can knock out anything in a few hits with a 510 base melee mantis and cap club.
That's pretty clever!
King
Your videos are always amazing! I enjoyed watching this!
Spear bolts are a pain to make but once I started using them, man, I never went back. As good as it gets underwater, where you can't use the rifle.
God I love shocking tranq darts, though. Only reason for the jellyfish to exist.
Hope you're doing well Steve. Great video!
Love you Steeeeeve! Good to see you again
The Awesome Spyglass are really good when doing things like this since you wear it all the time and see the stats on all dinos you look at.
Very interesting. And it finally ends the whole "you have to shoot them in the head" crap. I've had countless arguments over the years regarding this. Noobs just proved me right ✌️
Cheers Steve.
Yeah, some of the animals have a headshot multiplier, but the big carnivores aren't among them. I WISH it made a difference on a Giga, lol
Just show them dododex. Some dinos have headshot multipliers and some dont
From what i understand knockout speed, regardless of tranq or cannon type, is based on damage dealt thus headshots only help on dinos that have a headshot multiplier.
It is, but it's also based on tranq in that the different weapons/projectiles deal different damage, but in the end, yes, it's entirely based on damage
@@iamacatperson7226 i was more implying that against rexes, who do not have a headshot multiplier (back when i played anyway) it does not matter where you hit them, where as say an argey has one thus would benefit from headshots
@@patrickrocheleau8185 ohhhhhhhh
Thanks for the effort. Always wondered what it would take, now I know.
Thanks need this taming rexs soon
I swear how are you not popular you dont know how much you helped me in ark
Very willing test subjects who are definitely not trying to escape
Watching your videos brings a good dose of nostalgia, always a pleasure. But I do have a question though, wouldn't it be better to wait 5-6sec after each tranq dart? I never fire rapidly like that and I think it would take less arrows if you wait between shots.
That's correct. Torpor increases for 5 seconds after hit. Applies to all the shown ammo types. Frogs can apply a 10 second torpor over 10 seconds. Does not stack with the same attack.
If you're feeling brave use the electric prod!
Of course you'll need some skill not only swapping to the next one but also to dodge attacks.
thank you nooblets another great video :D
Really looking forward to the next video
Definitely guessed 117 arrows and three crossbows lol fun stuff mate
You can scan targets on genesis don't forget (before u tame to check stats, or check torpor while tranqing)
Oh really? I only just started playing ark, got the first 3 maps but that feature is something i crave haha
@@kottonzartist7870 ya, its almost like the advanced spyglass mod. Gen 1 will prob go on sale soon when gen 2 comes out this month
@@kottonzartist7870 if u want something op, try to get a mantis and breed it, put all the points into melee (mine has 1000). With a club, can knock out a max rex in 5 seconds. You can also just raise the eggs and kill baby's for unlimited polymer chitin and prime meat.
@@alphaflight101 i believe gen 1 was on sale when the season pass was i just didnt know if i would stick with the game at that point :) sure it will be on sale when 2 is out like you say, oh nice! We tried scorched earth but we need to do all the bosses on the island pvp first for the tek stuff
strange that dododex was spot on for the tranq darts and shock darts but it was a good bit off for the other two 🤔
Love your content! Thanks for the help!
Found lvl 200’s Rex, shot it with at least 43 tranq darts and killed it! Why? Head vs body shots maybe?
Thanks for the information
I've used mee6 to let everyone in my community know whenever you've posted a new RUclips video.
You're in the category "Best RUclipsrs", be proud of your awesome work!
is neebs gaming there too?
Interesting vid. Would've loved to see you stop and let the torpor DOT go up especially with the tranq arrows. Also please include the mantis in the next video!
Thansk for this very helpful idea
You should make this same video but with hormone darts
I wish you included the materials to make it. See which is more effective in terms of narcotics, gunpowder, metal
I’m in a map in valguero and I found a level 95 rex on day 2 or 3 so this helped a lot
the trick on xbow is headshots and waiting 4 seconds between shots
120 tranq arrows, lower hp
70 tranq darts, plenty hp
All I needed
It would be useful to see a comparison that included ascendant variants of the weapons.
Is this the first time we see nooblets use a mod?
you can use awsome spyglass instead its better then you dont have to pull out the spyglass :) ( the mod is called awsome spyglass )
Hey Steve will you be doing a Subnautica Below Zero series? Your original subnautica play through is probably the best out there. Actually all of your survival game plays are awesome. Hoping they make an sequel to Ancestors as well.
Nice video i Waiting for next episode😊
Hey nooblet, awesome content. I would love to see some videos about game play, mainly how to do things more efficiently. I see alot of people playing and harvesting metal in island when abe would be best, or never knowing about mochops been awesome at harvesting polymer, even that chainsaws exist. There is a lot of farming techniques and tips that you could make videos off. This might be more resourceful for pvp but please players could benefit from knowing some of this tips.
I’ve never used shocking tranks. They look really good on the rexes so I might start making some when I can.
They are very effective. However they are very expensive as you need to first get bio toxin, tranq darts and metal ingots. I use them when I'm taming a giga as it doesn't take nearly as long to knock out. But you will be needing a lot of metal and gun powder. Be careful though as they have a spoil timer. So keep then in a fridge or preserving bin until you want to use them.
how to show the torpo like that, i only see the name of dino
Your contents class mate
What's the best tranq because im looking to tame a lvl 110 rex that's been outside my base for 2 days now and it killed my ptredon and my 3 lvl 29,lvl56,lvl32 but i cant get into my base to get my lvl 125 rex to kill it and im looking for another rex so i need a fast 1
Yes more science please
How does the damage of weapon affect taming? Is higher damage weapon better or worse?
I'm looking forward to kncokinf out rexes with creatures oh boy that's gonna take alot of time
Bird Poop Head... XD
Using the Awesome Spyglass is better imo, because the HUD actually stays up as long as you target the dino. Easier to see the torpor and hp “in real time”.
One word, Dododex. Could've saved yourself the time lol.
if you have to go there you then you dont remember, seeing this vid will help to remember
Yeah some people take in information differently
I mean we have wikipedia but that doesn't stop people from making documentaries.
Sometimes information can be both informative AND entertaining.
To be honest, y'all, I was just being a smartass lol. Nooblets puts out some great content.
I'm sure your probably aware, but if you use a higher level Xbow (MC, ascendant 200%+ Dmg ) you'll use far less arrows, less than the number of darts shot with a prim long neck. Higher echelon weapons (MC/Ascendant) have a multiplier effect on tranqs, and they have much higher durabiility meaning you don't have to have 10 XBows or 5 Long Necks on your Inv. Reference the Dododex variable Weapon index for knock out quotients entering your Weapon Damage% and it will calculate the lesser number of Tranq Arrows/Darts required. I use Master Craft/ Ascendant echelon Xbow's to do all my taming knock outs as Tranq Arrows are far less expensive (Mats and time) to craft.
My dude the shocking tranq darts was flawed with the stego interfering. I know it didn't cause it to sleep but it did heal it which makes the health wrong
Nice video- I'm genuinely surprised it didn't matter that much if you do headshots or body shots, as I'd always believed headshots would be more effective...
Although thinking about it, when tranqing it SHOULDN'T be more effective to hit them in rhe head, thinking about it... You're trying to tranq them, not hurt them, so really you should be avoiding headshots, if the game was built that way, anyway...
Now I'm gonna build a little spreadsheet and work out which type of tranq ammo is most cost effective in term of resources over speed and quantity. 🤓
So some things can be knocked out by punching them like the dodo and jerboa. If you put all of your points into melee, how much torpor does the character do? Does the Tek gauntlet become OP... how about other melee weapons?
cant wait for the next video'
That poor Rex that got the harpoon experiment.
Imagine having an ar with tranq darts😂
Isn’t dododex as accurate? Just wondering
Not exactly
Random stego in the distance 7:07
if you slowed down the shots theyd have more torp increase per arrow.
I knock out stuff with a mantis and a bunch of clubs pretty easily, please try that
Electric prod missing and/or ascendant weapons so you build more content hehe
Use mantis with clubs, they can knock out a 150 rex for sure...
Thx
For the next vid dont forget about the thorny dragon
Hi Steve is misbah's mom OK?
Nice. Vd. I have. Question. Do you meglo on. Abb. Whith stait 25k hp and 1 dmg Enough to kill the boose
Forget the tranqs, i wanna know who got the numbers on ark wiki, Super bob with his trusty club + 150 giga = 9960 blows. Hail super bob :D
The torpor of a giga divided by the torpor a club inflicts
@@snowball_from_earth you seem fun at parties...
Wouldnt it require less arrows if you let the torpor run instead of just keep firing
Hello nooblets, I really enjoy your videos! I have learned a lot from them over the past, what, 6 years now of ark videos?
However, in this test, you kinda screwed up the tranq arrow torpor test. 100 arrows = 15,750 total torpor (35 damage & 157.5 torpor per arrow)
Tranq arrows apply their torpor in 70 up front, and 87.5 over 5 seconds (multiplied by your crossbow's damage multiplier). The rex had 15,400 torpor maximum, so... 98 arrows should have been enough to KO it.
But I don't know for certain if it would work if you fired 98 as fast as you can. It "should" work, but ARK is ARK sometimes.
The torpor over time should stack from multiple arrows, BUT, I don't think it stacks infinitely (I could be wrong). In early EA, it did not stack, and people were wasting tons of arrows, and taming as part of a team was pointless, so they changed it to stack. But my anecdotal impression from experience is that there is a limit to the number of stacks which can coexist.
The way the torpor stacks is sequential (which is to say that each stack of torpor over time from the same shooter will occur after the previous one has finished). So if (for example) you shoot 10 arrows over about 21 seconds (rough estimate of the time it takes to fire 10 arrows with an X-bow, probably more like 25 seconds if you have server lag), it will apply torpor over 50 seconds (including the 21 seconds you spent shooting). 5 seconds worth of sequentially stacked torpor over time x10 arrows. Some sources say it is over 4 seconds, not 5. This may be true, but then again server lag can mess with things as well. But these are the fundamental mechanics of how it works.
This effect is actually extremely useful for taming a giga or a doed. On a doed, you can usually apply enough stacked torpor to KO the creature before it curls up into a ball. Just fire non-stop at the doed, and when it curls up, it 'should' have enough stacked torpor over time to finish. Operative word being "should", I never trust ARK to work right.
On a giga... well if the giga is not trapped, then they like to run all over the place if you're taming from a safe location like a cliff-top or a quezal, etc. So the tranq arrows give you a slow torpor increase over time, which helps prevent torpor loss from the time it spends moving out of range. Also, the gun (due to the long reload time) has a small gap of time where no torpor is being applied before the next dart hits the target. On any dino which has a crazy fast torpor recovery rate (like a giga), this means that darts will apply torpor in a "2 steps forward, 1 step back" manner, making tranq darts actually very inefficient on those dino types. Most dinos lose torpor slowly enough that this isn't a significant issue. There are not many dino types where this matters, but gigas are a very noteworthy example, where you really should be using a crossbow to KO them. If you have 2 people firing darts at a giga, and the giga is trapped so there's no time spent chasing it, this issue goes away (so long as you're not firing in sync with each other). If you're playing solo, or from a server in your own basement, and have no server lag, darts can actually stack torpor "slightly". With server lag, you'll usually have torpor loss between shots.
Also, when a source like dododex quotes the number of torpor projectiles needed, it doesn't account for torpor loss. So if you're using a rifle, which has a short period of torpor loss between shots, it can take slightly more ammo than quoted. On a giga, this effect is extremely exaggerated (as outlined above).
Rex's have no headshot bonus. So you pretty much always want to shoot for the body on Rex's anyway. Actually a majority of the creatures in ark have no headshot bonus. And 3 of them have a negative headshot bonus (as in, headshots are actually much less effective than body shots), these are the trike, pachy, and pachyrhinosaurus. Some other creatures have other areas where they take less damage (and less torpor). Stegos and morelotops have armored spines, stegos have an armored tail, snails & turtles have an armored shell. The torpor is a multiplier derived from the damage, so if you have damage numbers turned on, you can see when you're doing bad torpor. Or when a particular dino offers any benefit from headshots.
Tek Bow tranq in 1 or 3 hita ☝️
YO I ACTUALLY GOT 120 and the use of 2 crossbows! I know nobody cares, but math worked for me there
Nice video:)
If you use the dododex app it's a lot more easier but still love your videos noob
Do the test with poison granades.
They only work on humans
You know we could just use Dododex right? 🤔
How do you know the info is accurate if nobody tests it?
@@shadowviruz If the info wasent accurate than why give info that probably isn't as accurate?
@@justagamer2125 how do you know its accurate if you dont test it? just because its on a website its true?
@@shadowviruz I've used it for months and it's pretty accurate, but I bring a little extra when taming because sometimes shots don't register and that pisses me off.
