What are tips for cementing paste? Tips and strategies for cementing paste in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
The FROG CAN gather them from GLOWBUGS
I don't really reccomendreccomend using snail because the taming food is kinda expensive and only produce 1 per minute, i'll reccomend taming either doedic and sabertooth or beelzebufo because they're taming food is not expensive.
Raid from beaver dams to get cementing paste, it’s the best way, I would recommend also having a flyer, pteranodon recommended because of it’s speed, when you raid a beaver dam, the nearby beavers will attack you, so that’s why
Stryder on abb near the surface entrance gathers tons of keratin from bone piles and stone/metal in blue zone.
I live in the south of the island near a beaver spawn area. I regularly harvest nearby beaver dams. I’m lvl 93 now and I still haven’t crafted a single cementing paste myself even though I’ve got 4K cp in my smithy and another 12K in my fabricator.
Just go to Ragnarok next to the castle there is multiple little dams and 2 big ones. I'd you grab all that u will have slot
It you want cementing paste, eat bugs with frogs( gotta be big black frogs)
I'm pretty sure dams spawn in when beavers do. Just raid, kill them and go out of render for a couple of min they should spawn in with more dams.
The best way I think of getting cementing paste:
1. Get a griffin,argentavis,pteradon or gallimimus
2. Find a beaver dam
3. Kill the beavers or lead them away
4. Steal the loot from beaver dam
Second way:
1. Get a frog
2. Find a swamp
3. Kill meganuara’s/ants
Hope this helps you and this is all I know for now
When u enter the game ur gonna want to get a bed and tame a achitna and sleep when you wake up You’ll have lots of cementing paste
You can pick a beaver and bring it back to a pen. Fly out of render and it will likely spawn a dam. Can be done with multiple beavers.
I would recommend taming a frog and taking it into the swamp cave on The Island. There's lots of dragonflys there which will give you thousands. Make sure to level health and melee on the frog as the creatures in that cave are high level and do a lot of damage, also bring a weapon like a shotgun for the larger insects that aren't weak to the frog. Lastly, remember that the dragonflys attacks drain your frogs stamina, so don't get cornered because you WILL die!
Get a Sabertooth,a Doe and some mortar and pestle(Chemistry table works best)
Find caves,hunt any insects,easy cremating paste.No risk of stealing beaver dams
You can carry some wild Castoroideses into a lake near your base and they will build beaver dams in the new location.
Thank me later.
Killing a bug with the frog works for me, when i kill a bug with the frog it eats the bug and gives me meat, chitin and cementing paste.
to steal from beaver dams, get a wyvern or quetzal. i recommend to steal beaver dams in rag because their bever dams are massive. land near the water and stand on the wing, and watch as the desparate beavers try to get a bite out of you while u steal all of their cementing paste.
Fun fact: Frog eat Bug. Frog turn Bug into Paste.
Easy tip just raid a beaver dam but remember take a flyer with yourself cuz once you open its inventory all the beaver's will attack at you.
Dont go online or on a server if u want alot of cp trust me.
If you’re looking for a ridiculously large amount of chitin on the island go to the swamp cave with a megatherium. The swamp cave is located by the small swamp patch in the lake in the redwoods. I filled over 10 large storage boxes. Enjoy!
