How ARK creature speeds work
Base, wild sprint, and tamed sprint
Base is how fast the creature moves without sprinting. Wild sprint is its sprint in the wild. Tamed sprint is its sprint after taming, which is faster for some creatures and unchanged for others. A movement type with no sprint is left blank.
Movement speed
100% is the creature’s base speed. Raising it scales that creature the same way leveling Movement Speed does in ARK: Survival Evolved. Flyers stay at their base speed unless the server allows flyer speed leveling. In ARK: Survival Ascended, speed stays at 100% unless the server turns speed leveling on.
Distance and units
ARK in-game distance is measured in centimeters. One foundation is 300 cm, so this 60 meter track is 20 foundations long.
