What are tips for metal? Tips and strategies for metal in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
If I’m you’re in late game and you need metal, and you just so happen to have a quetz and a platform saddle, (you do not need one but it will be a little harder) you get as many ankys as you want or anything with weight reduction for metal, and fly around with an argentavis on follow if you want that extra that extra weight off, and park your quetz somewhere then get an anky and your argentavis, collect your metal, then store in the ankys, if you do not have a platform you could just carry around your anky with your argentavis. Once done you could just put some in your argy and some in your anky and put you argy back on follow. I hope you found this helpful
Teksuit and Genesis 2 is all you need for farm ressources :)
Go to gen 2 and smash rocks with the super punch. Easy metal and can travel encumbered
Pegue um Anquilo com uma argentavis , e upe o peso do anquilo, assim ele vai farmar automaticamente quando se aproximar de um metal, mas só até a metade do seu peso total, após encher o inventário, coloque-os na argentavis, mas a redução de peso do anquilo é melhor ent tenha uma argentavis fortinha
Take a karkinos on a map that spawns then and duel wield ankylos, so much metal
Since ankylos have a much higher weight reduction, if you really want to maximize metal for each run, you should keep all the metal in the ankylo while picking it up on an argy or quetz and placing it next to metal rocks.
Go to
Griffin mountain and you are all set
Easier said than done but get a magmasaur and level up weight. It'll one shot nodes and with 300 melee I get like 600-700 metal each hit on official 1x gathering.
Bring some strong dinos as bodyguards. Magmas aren't good at fighting
How the dunk is in the second place?
Use the Akko on meatl yeet that stuff in ur pockets
A good way on aberration is to bring karkanos with anky and when you finish with one rock use your karkanos to throw it
Crystal isles has one of the best metal areas to farm. Close to the red ob on a river past a mountain range that has some red trees on it you can find a river that gets you stone metal and obsidian. 👍
The way i go on metal runs is go to the desert with a quetz and an anky on its platform and i get the metal and put my anky back on the quetz and it barely weighs anything because of weight reduction note: i only do this on official servers if its unoficial and inf weight this wont matter and you can use cryo pods
Metal. Metal is USEFUL. But where oh where are they on Scorched Earth?
Procure pelas pedras de metal,construa uma casa de preferência pequena mais varia de pessoa pra pessoa
Magmasaur can get you easy 5k per node and abb is a good place for metal.
Super metal guide metal at the EarlyGame to the EndGame
In this guide you will find ways to get metal at the beginning of the game easily even massive metal farms!
Early game metal :
requirements :
Pick or metal pick.
To get your first metals, look for river rocks and use a pickaxe (preferably metal). If you don't have a metal pickaxe, get one is easy and worth it! First, it costs 1 to be create in a forge. When you have a molten metal pickaxe, hit river rocks. You can get up to 20-40 metals per minute if you farm constantly.
MidGame metal :
requirements :
Argentavis (optional saddle)
Ptera with saddle
Metal pick
get an argentavis, no saddle is needed just use a crossbow and narcotic arrows while running on a fast mount like a raptor, after having an argentavis ride a pteranodon and go to a place with a lot of metals and use your metal pickaxe.
Mid - End game metal :
requirements :
Argentavis with saddle
Ankylo with saddle
Take the Anky to a place with many metallic rocks using the argy, release it there and collect metal with the ankylo and take it back home with the argentavis
EndGame massive metal : use a quetzal with a platform saddle with several ankylos collect metal with the ankylos until they are all full the quetz will not carry the weight of the metal only the weight of the ankies
For collect a lot of metal .. you have to use your ankle in the water try it 😍
What you need to do is find rocks on mountains or shores(the shores have shinier, more rounder rocks) and hit then with any kind of pick.
Magmasaurs are the best at gathering metal
