1 tip: don’t get attached to anything in pvp servers.
Edit: don’t get attached to anything at all.

Just don't get attached in general good life tip
True
I never saw the reason for playing PVP other than to troll or get into a tribe war.
@@jim3939 damn bruh that sucks 💀
[Tips for your stats]
1.) The base max level you can hit is level 104.
2.) You can increase your max level through other tasks, such as defeating end-game bosses, collecting all explorer notes, etc.
3.) Its recommended to invest at the minimum of 130% movement speed. I usually go with 145% since there are items that help with movement such as grapples later on in the game.
4.) It is fine if you choose to do a quirky build. I once played with my friends and increased my HP to 800, it was pretty funny.
5.) Unless if you are playing in a PVE server/world, only invest in either (Health, Stamina, Weight, Speed). It is because the other stats(except crafting) can be dealt with using items and dinosaurs.
6.) Be careful in choosing what recipes to unlock, you have limited things that you can unlock.
7.) WARNING. There is a highly contagious disease in ark that can be gained from either leeches or players who are sick. It has the following effects:
20% Reduction in WEIGHT, MELEE, HEALTH, and STAMINA.
20% Increase in SPEED
50% Increase in FOOD, WATER, and OXYGEN consumption
[Tips for your base]
1.) It is recommended to skip past the Thatch buildings. You should use at least Wooden buildings. Stone buildings is best since it cannot be damaged by most dinosaurs whatsoever.
2.) Your first base is recommended to be hidden, example is either in forests, or near rocky cliffs.
3.) For newbies, try building it near the recommended spawnpoints, it usually has the least hostile dinosaurs.
4.) You can use rafts as your base! There is only two things that can capsize a boat; It is either players or a Leedsichthys, which is a large aquatic dinosaur capable of destroying boats, they are somewhat uncommon though.
[Tips for your dinosaurs]
1.) Dinosaurs with a red aura around them are called "Alpha" dinosaurs, they are much stronger than the normal ones and cannot be tamed, though when killed, it can drop some good loot.
2.) Usually, the max level that a wild dinosaur can have is 150 to 180.
3.) When tamed, your dinosaur max level is set to only INCREASE 88 levels AFTER taming.
4.) Try not to get too attached to your dinosaurs. This may be difficult, even for me, but unless the server is PVE, there is a high chance that your dinosaur may get killed.
5.) Craft BOLAS. You can use it to temporarily immobilize most human-sized dinosaurs or, humans. It is very useful from either taming, or running from dinosaurs like raptors.
6.) Dinosaurs are either HERBIVORES or CARNIVORES. For most players, It is recommended to either use MEJOBERRY or RAW MEAT to tame dinosaurs.
7.) You can use NARCOBERRY to make the dinosaur(or players ;) ) sleep longer. It can be used to craft TRANQ arrows as well.
8.) Things that can SPOIL will last longer inside a DINOSAUR's inventory rather than a player's. Keep your spoilable stuff in there until you can get a preserving bin.
9.) When your dinosaur is injured, forcefully feed it food so that it heals quicker.
[Tips for YOU]
1.) Be careful of deep rivers/lakes, it commonly has piranhas in them, sometimes megaladons.
2.) Make sure you place SLEEPING BAGS or BEDS at your base or areas where you want to respawn in.
3.) Use Dododex! It is incredibly useful when taming dinosaurs
4.) SHIELDs and PARACHUTEs are very useful for surviving.
5.) When you die, a stream of green light will appear at your dead body so that It is easier to spot.
6.) When you see a beam of colored light, It is most likely a SUPPLY CRATE/DROP. Sometimes it drops good stuff that tribes would die for. The color depends on the quality and is restricted by level.
WHITE LV3
GREEN LV15
BLUE LV 25
PURPLE LV 35
YELLOW LV 45
RED LV 60
EXTRA: If the supply crate/drop has a yellow/orange ring on it, it means the drop is doubled :))
You're awesome, thank you!

Save your engram points! You don't have enough points to learn every engram, so only learn things you know you need. Blueprints are a great way to save points too, as they give you access to an engram without actually needing to learn it
Where do you find blueprints?
@@liamleonard9120 Mainly supply drops, on some of the DLC maps you can find them in other ways like killing certain bosses or doing the missions on genesis
mind wipes tho
@@liamleonard9120 Supply drops! Look for ones that are yellow, green, purple, red or blue for the highest chance of finding BPs - the better the drop, the better the blueprints.
Go ascend u geek
1) Alpha Creatures can't be tamed and are massively more tanky than regular versions of that dino.
2) If you slip and fall off a high position try to land on a dino… any dino, it will remove all or most of the fall damage you are about to take.
3) Stamina is as important to you in the water as Oxygen. It used to be when you ran out you would die, but now you just have your movement in water affected that can make you drown or die of exhaustion before you get back to land you can stand on.
4) Keep flyers on passive unless you want them to fight for you. Having your flying mount in a fight and trying to get on it or getting it to stop and follow you to save it or yourself. If you are worried about them not defending themselves when attacked remember that if it has a saddle it can tank a few hits until you get to it, and if what is attacking is powerful enough that it won't survive you likely wouldn't be able to fight it off in time to save it either. It will also keep them from attacking things your are trying to tame.
5) ALWAYS Carry Parachutes and have them on your hot bat. Yes, even underwater. I have been in fights deep in the ocean dismounted and was teleported to the top of the skybox. I don't have to guess how that lateral thinking problem on how a SCUBA Diver was found dead in a tree in the forest for I have been that SCUBA Diver. Also it can be usefull for traveling far distances without a flyer if you have a way to climb or can get to high altitudes.
6) Recipes have buffs that are useful out of combat like improved harvesting or better results crafting from blueprints. This is often overlooked by early players and impatient ones but over time the difference actually saves time and can earn experience faster.
To go along with #2, if you fall off a cliff on a mount, just dismount a tad bit before you're about to hit the ground. Unridden tames take no fall damage and you use the tame as a landing pad. Win win scenario.
Tip 4 is wrong

@@mikubestgirl9093 And you are not a new player beach bob, which is who this advice is for, not for experienced players who have achieved high level bread/boosted max level tames.
I am well aware of what an Argentaivs can do... I have 8K hours in the game and have admined highly modded and customized servers on an old enterprise server.
I usually lure hostile creatures chasing me to a bronto, just hid between the brontos legs and the creature will try to hit you and it will hit the bronto and piss it off. It works 99% of the time
What if that "creature" is a Giga tho?

fortitude keeps you warmer in cold climates and cooler in warm climates and also a quite lovely plus is that it increases your torpor
What does torpor do?
@@betareclaimer7550 torpor is basically sleep, higher the torpor the more it will take to put you to sleep
If you ride a dino off a cliff dismount just before hitting the ground. Unridden dinos take no fall damage and if you dismount close to the ground it doesn't count the momentum of the whole fall just that little bit.
Another option to get rid of something nasty around your base is to lure it off a cliff. Fairly perm result depending on the cliff. Just use a bow to agro it at as far a range as you can hit it from and you won't need speed.
Put your critters within a walled complex. Roofed pens are good if you can afford them as trolls like to drop wild critters into ppls bases even on PvE.
I prefer to go weight and stam as first levels as I use harvesting to level faster. On a single foundation you can place (at extremes) a bed, smithy, mortar and pestle, refining forge. Get to metal tools asap and start cranking out sparkpowder to later be made into gunpowder. You can get some serious levels in a short time. I never build an actual starter base until I get to stone as so many things eat through lesser quality too quickly.
With pitfall traps you don't need speed, just use a bow to attact things at distance. Also building them on a raft allows you to move the trap. If you make a pitfall trap on PvE ALWAYS put a gate on it and leave it unlocked! If someone else lags and runs a dino into it by accident theres nothing worse than having to leave a tame till an admin or the trap owner gets on to help you free it.
If you need to move a lot of fliers at once don't have them all follow you. Hop on one of them and have the others follow it. Get off and hop on your normal flier and have that leader follow you. This stops the following birds overtaking you if you stop. So your screen isn't full of flapping wings.
If you use a quetz base/cage put an extra pteranadon on it and have the quetz follow it at a HIGH DISTANCE. This can be used as a quetz handbrake so it wont try to land if your not on it (stamina rules depend on the server of course)
I always recommend at least 5 levels in weight to start. Having to leave resources behind, especially early on when you don't have anywhere to keep things, is just an instant failure.
When you said to put a bed down in your base, I felt personally attacked
I just started using taming groups so I could move specific species without having to follow one by one or accidentally calling my every dino at my base. Much easier to put breeding dinos in a specific area
If anyone is on mobile, giant beavers and mammoths are a good alternative for wood gathering.
Where do i find the beavers lol
@@tptallen4498i think they spawn near rivers anywhere in the south and centre but I‘m not sure cuz I haven‘t touched the game in a while
I finally started Ark a few days ago and I definitely needed to see this video beforehand. That pitfall trap is a great one. For early protection I just tamed a bunch of dilophosaurs to run around with me. I don't know how well they'll be when I venture off the starting area, but hopefully their numbers will suffice.
5:30 To be fair the taming tracker didn't exist yet back then :)
I just wish the taming tracker had a hotkey attached to it... Sometimes it really inconvenient to have to click in your menu like that. Also it'd be nice if you could turn on and off what creatures you're monitoring at will, and delete ones you started taming accidentally (Pegomastax, Fjordhawks...) but didn't want. I mean, it's useful for sure, I just think it could be a bit more flexible.
6:30 The whistles also have a hotkey each ! And you can remap them so that you don't do a "follow all" in the middle of the base by accident, too :P You know what I'm talking about hahaha ! I put mine waaaaaay further from my fingers just to be on the safe side !
8:13 The search bar is also a life saver in your inventory or crafting engrams. Even if, for some weird reason, you're one of these weirdos who use the folder view, a search is so much more practical and fast.
You kinda can untrack the creatures you dont want to follow. They’ll still be in the tracker but dont pop up on the screen. A hotkey would be damn easy yes!
Came here to say this about both the tracker and the net projectile.
Wish I'd had that tracker in the early days bobbing around an unfamiliar map on foot
For the trap demonstration you used a theri and stone structures. Probably worth mentioning that some creatures, including the theri, can eventually rip right through stone structures, more quickly if they’re higher level. You can layer walls to give yourself more time. You can also layer large bear traps inside the trap for the same purpose. Might be worth keeping in mind.
2:35 you could also get that creature that wants to kill you and aggro it onto a pack of trikes and when they kill it you also get free loot from it! it works well
Also harvesting it will give hide and meat which is useful
Wow, a tutorial/guide with a guy that actually has a chill voice and not some weird tick of making each sentence sound the same or trying to sound 'cool'. Man this was a breath of fresh air! Thanks!
What a great video been playing for 5 months with only island engrams. Cursing why I didn't have net gun. Turns out now I do thanks for the tips. We new players really need things like this. Please do more.
Regarding chainsaws, sure they are great at gathering lots of wood, but depending on how you've distributed your stat points it can get really annoying when you get encumbered after chopping down one or two trees. Combine that with the fact that, in the early-mid game at least, they use up a decent amount of gas and resources, and you'll find something like a Beaver your best bet for gathering lots of wood. They harvest about as much as a chainsaw and also get a large weight reduction on it. Going out with the beaver, munching on some trees, and carrying it back to base with an argy is a great alternative to sprinting around with a chainsaw if that's just not your jam.
Keep your chainsaw on one hotkey and a mining drill on the other. After you cut a tree, switch to the drill - instant weight reduction so you can put it in a tame.
I enjoyed chainsawing trees while riding a ravager, then depositing the wood into its inventory. Iirc, ravagers have wood weight reduction.
Tame a high level parasaur and level it in weight. You can use the chainsaw to harvest wood while riding it
Youve earned my like by listing the controls for all the platforms. Mannnnny tutorials overlook this and I find myself having to look up a specific console tutorial.
ACCESSING THE MOUNTED INVENTORIES IS AMAZING!!!!! THANK YOU!
Tip 11: Forget everything that makes sense and do everything the most difficult way possible
Wow you got lot of subs last time i saw you had 40k
It's probably from the ark steam sale (it was on sale for free)
@@Filet_Gaming it ended like a week ago but it was on sale for free for like 2 weeks
@@Filet_Gaming rip
This guy is like one of the only RUclipsrs who explains controls on all platforms instead of on just pc
Another neat thing about the mining drill is it's weight reduction property while holding it, it provides a reduction off of the total weight of a few things like raw metal, stone, and wood. The drill does not need to be powered on for this to work either, the game even lets you hold it while mounted for the specific purpose of reducing the weight of items in your inventory. I commonly carry a drill around just for moving things between my storages and crafting stations.
Whaaaaaaaaaaat????????? Nobody ever mentioned this in the many many tips videos I watched (possibly because the drill is too recent but still) !!! I think my days of argy+anky metal runs are over....
@@cheaterman49 Nope, they're not over, they'll just be easier now. I've been testing this since I crafted a mining drill the other day, and the most efficient way to do it depends on whether you've got a better drill blueprint or higher-melee anky. Typically the drill wins out, though. And because of the way the weight reductions work for all parties involved, you can get several thousand metal loaded up into the anky and mine up a thousand more and keep them on your person, then use the argy to transport all of it back.
sometimes if there is a hostile creature that's worth taming near my base like a carno, theri or anything else I'd try to tame it
and also it is nice to have a backup flyer it can save you from bad situations like if you went far from base and died but your main flyer is still there it would provide a fast way to get back to it before losing it along with your stuff
This made me think of the first time getting metal tools and weapons ever. That was a great day 😁
I agree w/ the trap method of taming, but I've been playing since 2016 so I like the challenge of taming out in the open. I also play PvE only so I'm safe for the most part.
I tame everything out in the ope, i dont like making traps because it feels too cheated but it is indeed an great method
@@Zamoksva ive only started recently playing (mostly mobile, family shared computer so yk) im just too lazy to build a trap
Tip:
If you want to remove the cryosickness timer on solo, go to your settings and change your settings to pve into of pvp.
I've been playing for years and your first tip proves to me that you actually know what you're talking about.
movement speed is definitely the best stat to level.
I usually level it up to 156% on all my characters, even the ones I have created solely for building or taming.
The only character I don't lvl Speed on is the one I only lvl weight on for transferring items from server to server
Fortitude is better 👀 I keep 50 points in fortitude always and I very, very rarely get too cold, too hot and I haven't been tranquilized by either player, tame or wild creature since the first time I mindwiped and went with this levelling scheme.
Speed isn't necessary in pve after the first few hours. For building some weight (400-500) is much better
@@fischersfritz468 wrong
@@TheRizDogg what do you need speed for? 10-20 points: ok why not. But certainly not more. I'm not on foot anyway except in my base
@@fischersfritz468 you stated "Speed isn't necessary" l said "wrong".
You play it your way, kid.
I have no need to explain it things to children.
Also when on a dino, of you fall off a cliff or high place. If you hop off the dino last second you and your dino won't talk fall damage
I don’t murder the creatures, I just tame them. You can do this pretty early on too. Build a basic trap near your base early game, so then if something spawns or come near you, you can trap it then either kill it, or knock it to see if you can tame it.
You can use the tame tracker to track your base because the tracker gets left on after tamed so walk dino back to base and you have an easy waypoint
I’ve had the worst couples weeks, ever so far. I’ve got a ton to catch up on, but thank you once again for dropping a video on one of my “need a pick-me-up” days. 😆💜
I recommend taming lower level creatures first amd one of each gender. That way, you can use their eggs to make kibble and tame higher level tames much easier.
Just got this game in 2024 watching everything download on my Xbox. All imma say is if I looked more into this game when it came out I would have been playing a long time ago. Thank you to the creator for the detailed tips👍👍💯
I wish I knew pickaxes gives more metal while destroying stone... I was mistaken for the first month 😑
A fourth opinion for tip 2 lead the dino to a place they get stuck and can't die then they can't respawn near your base because they are still alive
That's great. Thanks mate. I didn't know that you can access your creatures inventory while riding it. I've always dismounted.
I always thought the taming tracker was a mod and cried alone in the dark because I’m a console player. Thanks for enlightening me you saved a lot of *insert unit of measurement for frustration here *.
Tip: If you play offline by yourself, it will 100% start to feel like a horror game. I've been playing ARK for a year at least, but offline because I don't hate myself THAT much. To top it off there are no in-game tutorials. Like nothing. So to brand new players just spawning in, good luck and run.
Solo or with some friends is the best way to play it. Good luck and run is also the best way to learn it - and the most fun one
Thank you for such a great video..6 days in to the game and this video will definitely help move forward with a plan...im going to check out your other videos! Thank you Thank you thank you
Dude I was level 72 at the beginning island.. I have so much to learn haha
Bro thank you just started playing been pissed asf moving shit from one inventory to the other. No joke saved me so much time in the future would’ve never figured that one out lol.
I've watched enough of your videos already that most of this wasn't helpful, but the tip for accessing tame inventory while riding made it all worth it.
Mammoth is hands down the best wood farmer. With high base weight and massive weight reduction, there is no comparison.
The like for the epiphany, and a sub for the overall well made video.
"A lot of things to learn" is the biggest understatement describing ark lmaoooo
You don't mention billboards. They are easily one of the cheapest trap to build and can be placed quickly on the go. They are particularly useful when you have trapped something with a net gun and won't have time to tranquilize it before the 1 minute net duration runs out.
I got another tip you need to click host local to play single player because it took me 30 minutes to realize it
Tip: You can practically glide by opening the inventory on xbox/windows in rapid succession.
Online
To not take any fall damage at all and this still works because I'm literally playing the game rn on PS4. But constantly spam your inventory button on playstation it's the O button. It works everytime it kinda skips you ahead a bit
Thanks for going over all the controls not just a single system
I know this video has been out a few months now but as someone who FINALLY has a PC that can run Ark instead of an aged playstation... thank you SO MUCH for putting the buttons up when talking about controls!! I have to relearn how to play my favorite game now lol 😅 and those are super helpful!!
The most important thing that I wish I knew when I bought Ark is: there's no way in Hell my GPU can run this game. haha
Best way to if no trap or even in trap is to knock it out and leave it tilll unconcious barr is half way down or if the dino is gotten super hungry then when your ready feed it and you get perfection tame everytime, and if something attacks it it wont damage the taming effectiveness because it hasnt started yet
From experience, don't get a saddle till u tame something, I know it could be annoying trying to get it home if u don't have any cryos, but if a predator come around and kills ur tame then u wasted the resources u used while taming said creature.
3:21 that was the best tip for beginners 😅😂❤
been watching Neebs Gaming play Ark for literal years and finally got the game myself this month. The first thing I put points into was MOVEMENT SPEED! lol
60 hours in and I did not know that F opens your mounts inventory. So helpful.
I knew about all of these tricks except for the chainsaw/mining drill one. Even though that was the only useful one to me, it was still just that: VERY USEFUL. Thanks man :)
I'm like 10 seconds into the vid but if your on xbox one/ps4 you can spam the inventory button and not die of fall damage try it in single-layer creative if you think im trolling it's game changing
Love this. Seeing some new things thag should help, like the move and attack shortcuts
Definitely best ARK Tipps and tricks video on RUclips!
If you're being chased by a wyvern, I recommend following the tip about making them aggro onto creatures. They'll aggro onto anything like anklyosauruses, meaning you can fly away with the egg while they're still distracted, or making them aggro onto the dinos, then taking their eggs.
Tip #385: If you want to transfer or drop one specific item, like stone for example, type "stone" in the search bar. It will filter all of your stone material and then press "A" to transfer/drop all. This works for skins and costumes too; SUPER annoying they ALL reappear after you die and you have to drop everything again.
This helped me and I have been playing for 4 years now and I did not know you can make you dino attack thank you bro
what is the map he is playing on ?
learn how folders work in your inventory. take the five minutes to play with it and label a few folders. it helps so much when carrying these to and from locations, or organzing your inventory. another thing no one talks about is gen2 missions. i would slave for hours trying to wait for beaver dams for cememnting paste. save yourself the trouble. go to gen2 and do a mission. 1 alpha mission=10k paste. also putting certain dinos on passive works best when your are farming something away from base and worried about getting attacked. hop on quickly though, or you and your mount will die slow deaths. lol
Never knew about the taming tracker and I've played this game for years!
I knew about quick transfer but not tame inventory while riding it. Please accept this like... 👍
I would add the tip that some of the items that you recommend to get are also locked behind dlc islands that you have to travel to in order to unlock said item; like the net gun for example.
nah dude almost every engram is free now because of lost island and fjordur. net gun is def a free item lol
@@pterafier no it not it still says locked
@@pterafier yea it says it’s locked for me too. I have the DLC’s but it’s my first time playing ark so I’ve only been on the island
@@breen5681 I think it's free as in "you don't need to pay to play that map", but you do need to get your character to that other map to learn the engram. (Haven't done that myself yet..)
I'm playing on fjordur and have access to all engrams. I only have fjordur installed. (500gb drive)
Been playing since pre-release. Just learned something new from this vid. Epiphany had, like and sub clicked ✌
Love this
i just had a epiphany learning that stack transfer button on pc your a hero!
chainsaw and mining drill should be used together. chainsaw a tree. mining drill to reduce the weight allowing you to move to next tree. can get 2-3x the amount of wood per trip
9:18 T for transfer and O to drop the stack out of your or your Dino's inventory
U can also transfer all on ps with l1 or r1, also light camp fire, start fabi etc with r3 aswell
My one thing to mention is that I far prefer the more HP no move speed levelling, this is better for PvP servers as having just 10 levels in hp makes you twice as tanky, and it only goes up
2:33 I lead carnos into therizinos to destroy both threats
9:30 that is huge for me. Ive been manually spamming the A button to move stuff, and had to do it to get one item in to select and move a large stack of items.
Tips for beginners use a large bear tarps instead of traps because it's time and consuming
PVE Tip #1 learn how to build wooden spikes #2 always have 1-2 wooden spikes. #3 learn how to kit around wooden spikes. #4 put a bed around caves with spikes around cave and foundation and forge.
I've watched a bunch of ark tips videos, simply because the controller support kind of sucks and is extremely not intuitive. Lots of hidden button combos. Took me a while to figure out that double tap A transfers 1, but I never knew about holding A for the whole stack 😭 thankyou.
I haven’t played ark in a while and the new items are confusing this helped especially with the harpoon gun taking a Yuti is super easy
The atk command is new for me and i played ark like 500 hours plus. Thx mate you changed the way i play ark xD
0:40 I dont know why but somehow leveling goes so fast. I played for two days now on Fjordur, explored like 10% of Landmass of the map, built like 2 small bases and tamed some stuff here and there. Boom lvl 45...wtf.
I remember back then when i seemingly had to sweat for ages to get to Tranq Darts and how after days and days there was finally a saddle for the Pteranodon and i could finally fly after all the time. Now everything gets thrown at you and before i even really needed the Smithy, i had the Engrams for the Fabricator....GGGG
Also, for "realism" i dont put too much into movement speed haha, dumb i know
I wish I knew that every time I logged off, there was a very real chance my base wouldn't be there when I got back.
Thank you for showing me a method I have not known to capture creatures and tame them I have a annoying Therizino by were my base was which caused me to go up a river and lose my stuff
The pull resources button is so underrated
Thanks for telling about ramps
tip: setting up a dedicated server is super easy and consumes nearly 0 ressources. i have 2 arks with 8 players running on my "server" with a i7 930 with some cheap ddr3 ram. 4gb per server is enough and it will run on nearly any ram speed. so set one up, make your own rules, take like dads old sht computer for it and have fun. really hard to mess up. even installing mods is super easy. running it on the same computer you play with will work too but only if you have a lot of ram as ark and an ark server might be much but it all depends on the system.
I never knew about 6 that will be so useful from now on.
I usually balance everything to the point to where health, weight, stamina, melee damage, and speed are all 160
Omg I used the "move forward" combo all my ark life to let my creatures attack enemies and thought it was just arky buggy that it is hard to aim for the attack 😂😂😂😂😂😂 thank you! Gonna use the specific attack combo today and see if my creatures are more willing to attack from now on 😅
I love how I already knew all of this but just watched the video because I was curious.
Tip 7: Never jump on the creature you want to whistle to stop following something, the tame you are riding ignores all follow/stop follow whistles you make. Simple look at the creature and whistle stop following.
A side note, if you are on PC, never use that whistle wheel, all whistles have a hot key, navigating a wheel when stuff is going down that requires quick responses can be the sec between losing all or some tames and protecting them. Whistle hot keys are (T=One follow, Y=Stop following one,((for those two you have to look at the specific creature)) ,=Move here, .=Attack target((crosshairs must be on the target, can be finicky)) ;=all Passive, -= all Neutral, j=All follow, u=all follow.) If you're riding a creature when you whistle to follow for other creatures, they will follow that tame and not you. You have to mount to whistle all stop, or point at and whistle one stop. This can be useful for organizing tames in a big group. You can also set tames to specific groups and when you have a specific group active only tames in that group will respond to group whistles. Whistling is the key to mastering large tame groups, and once you have mastered it, any death you have afterwards is on you cause a group of dinos will keep you safe if you know what you're doing.
What I have learned from playing. People suck and steal loot for the fun of it. Will come after you multiple times to steal all your loot. Which lead to not giving you a chance to fight the bosses on this game.
