Castoroides Tips & Strategies (Page 2) | ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved

Everyone. TAMING OR KILLING THESE MFERS DOESNT MATTER THE GAME WILL RESPAWN MORE. Also when you take stuff out of the dams, dump the rest of the stuff out to destroy the dam. They won’t fill the dam again until it’s destroyed. Nobody likes opening a damn to find a bunch of…

In Ascended, if you see a high-level female beaver and have an Argy, Rhynio, or any other carrying flier, TAKE IT and drop it in a 2x2 or 2x3 stone taming pen, only 1 wall high. When you leave the area, she’ll spawn beaver babies at her same level (If she already has beaver…

These guy's saddles double up as smithys so always keep them around.

I tamed a level 150 of one of these wood gods, and then... it fell of a cliff... with me on it

Outstanding wood collectors. Mine has 770 weight and can carry 3K wood plus rider. Holds wood at 1/5 weight and can be used as mobile smithy. This teamed with a doed can construct a base in minutes. Must have.

The method I used to tame was picking up the beaver with my crystal wyvern and dropping it in a taming pen. Pretty easy knockouts but their torpor drop rate is INSANITY and you can't leave then for more than 3 minutes. Feed them either mejoberries or crops (kibble is…

They dont build dams while tamed. Build small pins to hold wild ones.

It will take more narcotics than posted. takes very long to tame even with crops

The most versatile tame I can think of. Personally I have used the Castoroides for the following things:

-get wood

-raid wild beaver dams (cuz they have weight reduction for wood found in the dams)

-explore the oceans

-kill Megalodons

-kill Mantas

-tame ichthyosaurs

-tame…

For people on gen 1 ASA there’s only one spot for cementing paste on the map it’s in the ARCTIC

Has more item slots that a traditional smithy witch allows you to allow you to craft some ascendant saddles that resources just don't fit in the slots

Make sure no other Castoroides are around then bola it and shoot it with tranqs until it knocks out. Make sure you bring loads of bio toxin, because their torpor drains fast. I used this method and tamed one at level 42

I once got killed by these raiding their dam...That was the start of a chain kill

I still didn't get back my stuff

If wild castoroides are penned in a small area (large tamming pen) they will create dams you can harvest for wood, cement, etc.

I recommend bringing a trike or any other Dino that harvests berries so you can just keep getting narcoberries! It was a real life saver.

Up if helpful 😁
