Player-written tips for Metal in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.

This is for newer players so please don’t downvote because your Quetz and anky can get more. Step one make a raft with a bed and some storage and if you want to you can put a furnace down. Step two if you have an anky get them on the raft with some ramps and roofs. Step 3…

If ur on mobile just go to the top of the volcano and there will be all the metal, obsidian, and crystal u will ever need with ZERO things that want to kill u.

P.S is it just me or does everything I type have a 12 second delay

Gas bag+mining drill= more metal than you know what to do with!

Make it point to the sky if this helped!!!

Anky + Argi is best but I take all other flying dinos so I can carry more :)

Poor people use a stone pick. Crazy people use a metal pick . Normal people use a anky rich people use a magmasour

Leave Anky Melee at 800 that’s cap adding more Melee does not get you more metal use the rest of the points on weight and health

Tame an anky and argy pick up the anky with an argy go to metal mountain then hit metal rocks with your anky and boom you have a metal making machine

I’ve noticed (for earlier starters like me) a good way to start is if you can get a meta pickaxe you can mine the little groups of rocks on the beach that look kind of shiny and they will give quite a bit of metal

Herbivore island has a bunch of metal rocks and there are no predators there

The rocks that are full gold give tons of metal, just head over to the volcano and ur all set.

Guy who said ro build raft-base and mine iron with ankylo

I hope you had good day too :)

I hope world will have more people like you.

If you are having trouble getting metal and don’t have anky, go for the small piles of rocks you should get 2-3 per pile

Holding a mining drill makes the metal weight reduced by 75% and its really good aswell a

I recommend go for industrial forge first,it need a lot of grinding,but it worth it,smelt 20 metal per 20 second,after that,metal are no longer a problem

To the person who said that they got 100k metal on 10x, why in the world are you in 10x? Part of Ark is grinding a little bit. At that point you might as well spawn in Metal

Tame argy and anky find some place where is a lot of metal pick up anky with argy harvest metal with him carry it back to base and put all your metal in industrial forge or refining forge

For the people that live by a river and are new and want a safe way to get metal river rocks give a lot more then normal stones
