ARK: Survival Evolved & Ascended Companion
Tips & Strategies
Rescue Mount - Speed: (Gallimimus+Trike=DireBear)
- You’ve just been ripped off your saddle and your favorite tame is in trouble.. you need to get there NOW. Keep one of these hitched with spare gear.
- Their sprint is like a Locomotive Engine: Takes a sec to get going, but Holy F- do they move at top speed and has stamina for days. Roars in like a Semi-Truck to slap silly anything that dared threaten your fav tame.
- Find a Low-lvl and tame with Meat or Prime. Use it to get Honey, then tame your High-lvl.
More Direbear Utility Tips
These are AMAZING! From (admittedly limited) experience, they can gather 200+ honey from a single beehive in less than a minute at the cost of destroying the hive, but it's absolutely worth it. Also, they can help protect their rider from bees. They can take out attacking bees very fast. LMB to attack, RMB to gather. RMB also does damage to other creatures but will not damage the hive.
PS: If you have access to a Quetzal with a platform saddle, you can use that to help the bear get access to more hives and as a result get more honey. I did it and now have thousands of honey. Also, they eat both berries and meat and will eat those before eating the precious honey.
Every dino you must have
Anky the living pickaxe (metal, obsidian)
Doedicurus the living axe (stone mostly)
Dire bear the living sickle (fiber, that pretty much it)
Argy the litteral cargo on ark (litterly lots of weight reduction)
Castoroides the ark lumberjack (woods)
Trike the soil master (tatch, berries)
Dire wolf the living tannery (hde, pelt, chitin)
Tyranosaurus rex the ark butcher (meat, prime meat, mutton)
These are so amazing! I have so many fruits and so much meat I could feed all ark! This is why I love it! It’s an Omnivore! Everyone must know. don’t have a megatherium nor a daeodon? Don’t worry, the dire bear got ya! Collect lots of berries and mea5 to feed all your Dino’s and friends!
Hits like a Mac truck, more damage than a rex, easily 8k hp, super fast, LOTS of weight, awesome stam, great attack speed, gathers meat, berries, and fiber, super easy to tame, cheap saddle, pretty much a cheap theri that hits like a rex, fast as a galli, and has quetz weight. I’m pretty much just waiting for a nerf.
