ARK's base taming speed on PC, PS4, and Xbox is now doubled, meaning 1× is as fast as what 2× was previously. Dododex has been updated to reflect this. Use the "presets" dropdown for common multipliers.

I dare you to raise one!! They are savage if you got two high lvl parents (about lvl 140ish) and you get imprinting on it. The thing will become an adult with about 230% melee and basically one chomp any bronto!!! But on the down side you loose your job and your girlfriend

This is such a rip off. When wild, it does 450 damage and has 80,000 health. When tamed, it has less than a quarter of its health and it took me four hits to kill a moose!! I don’t mind the health, but at least give it better Melee Wildcard! Make sure wildcard sees this.
