ARK: Survival Evolved & Ascended Companion
Tips & Strategies
When I was like lvl 45-50 I got an Ascendant blueprint for an argy saddle. When I saw the req. mats, I was like what? Lol I stayed atleast 10-15 days inside the south cave just to get lots of chitin and then later on I got journeyman blueprint. Tf! Anon got tons of chitin that can craft more than 10 saddle lmao.
My tip, tame a sabertooth and build a mini base outside the south cave and just go in and out if enemies are wiped.

You can get large amounts of keratin by killing carbs and trikes. Usually you want to get chitin instead since it is easier to get. Remember to use a hatchet to harvest it as a metal hatchet is the best early-mid game harvester of chitin and keratin.
A good way I found to get chitin is farming the scorpions with a axe you get like 120 -140 each
Why does it way 15 more pounds than all the materials to make it?
Works as a smithy but you can’t repair things in it
I tamed one before I got a saddle and I waited so long to ride it
Kill trillobits and you will get a lot of chitin
Kill bugs to get the most chitin
Do missions if you’re not the exact level or you can get loot drops you have a 1% of getting it or it just random. Hope it helps
Can also be used as a mobile smithy. Pretty handy, right?
just get a direwolf and go cave exploring or getting the artifact for a soothing balm before you tame an argy
got a crap ton of chitin from a single cave run with luna the direwolf
