Caves are the worst way to find these. this is because caving creatures arent built to transport stacks of obsidian while also fighting creatures simultaneously. Go to mountains or smth
Player-written tips for Obsidian in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
WHEN YOU BREAK OBSIDIAN WITH TO DOEDIC YOU ONLY GET STONE
Where does it spawn on map valguero ?
If on island use Anky with argy on the volcano
I’m ragnarok coordinates near 21 65. There’s a huge natural bridge that leads through a small cave and opening on the other side. Throughout that entire cave there’s obsidian bring an argy with a high weight and an anky. You will have more than you know what to do with
DONT USE DOED!! Ankylo or Phoenix is the best by far, this is from personal experience. Doed gets you only stone from MOST the obsidian around, on some maps there is another kind which has metal too, that is the ONLY kind a doed can even harvest at all.
PHOENIX IS BADASS!!…

PHOENIX IS BADASS!! mine was 37 b4 tame, and now has replaced my quetz cause it has a weight over 1200, and it can harvest all the same stuff as an Ankylo, not as good, but not much worse tbh.
To the guy who said where is obsidian it’s on the volcano and the giant mountain in the red woods
Have tried anky mantis and dunkle. Tested on land and water for both mantis and anky and dunkle is by far better on official. Island hunter cave dunkle I get 5k a run on 1x. Barely 2k with the other 2. Put dunkle on top as best gatherer please.
Nomaly the obsidian is in snow and they look like black shiney rocks
In the island. Find it in snow biome or inside cave, u will find lot of it. if u see very black and shining stone, thats an obsidian. Dont need to climb a high mountain or going to far volcano, (well its fine if u had argentav). Just be ware with the wild creatures
There are two type of obsidian rocks. Search the one who also drop metal. That's the kind that you should break if you're using a doedicurus. If you break the type that doesn't also drop metal the doedicurus will only harvest stone.
This for mobile go to the artic and you’ll find obsidian all over and tp a paracer with a plat form saddle with wood storage box’s and it’ll stay when you go back to base and tp the thing back
If on center go to the island with the lava and the face (forgot what it was called lmao) and go to the top. Tons of obsidian
On Rag use a dunk in the obsidian trench north of the volcano underwater. Absolutely insane amounts of metal and Obsidian
I'm playing Mobile and this is some tips that you (maybe) need to know:
1: Doedicurus(bruh I don't remember the name) will harvest metal,stone and obsidian when gather from obsidian rocks,and more than ankylo.
2: There is only simple-cheap(not really) way to carry…

2: There is only simple-cheap(not really) way to carry lot of this resources is agentavis,and this bird is slow. BUT if you have a quetzal and quetzal platform saddle, it will be faster (whatever you use, just make sure that creature have platform saddle).
+Let argentavis in the platform,up grade a lot of level to speed at big carry creature.
+Put all obsidian to argentavis,(doesn't need to care the agent 's inventory,just make sure that the big creature that carry agent still can move),and set argentavis at passive.
-This will make the big creature get only 50% weight of the obsidian, help you carry more than only use bird or big creatures
/I don't need this tip get up,but hope you all can get more good times/
To farm the most obsidian in the game take a god dunkleosteus in the water above volcano on rag and look for a ravine it’s filled with soo much obsidian and dunke has the most gathering efficiency and weight reduction it’s by far best method out apart from stryders -T8
What I have found to be the best is using magmasaurs. Getting about 150 per rock instead of 30 to 60 with anky. (On official)
Where is obsidian in fordjur?!!?!!! Spent hours 0 was found.
Make a bace On thé river that divides the snow from the jungle and get your argy and you’ve got unlimited Obsidian
If you are struggling to find obsidian, just go to the volcano
