ARK: Survival Evolved & Ascended Companion
Tips & Strategies
Trust me when i say this, its easier to make a level one at a terminal than ti make the 180's and crap. Best way to level up is to mount next to a explorer note and get next to it, since it'll get the xp boost too. Then fight corrupted dinos, because enforcers and defense units do 2× to 4× damage on corrupted dinos.
When harvesting these guys corpses, DON'T USE ANKY, ankys can't harvest bodies, even robo-corpses
(Same for defense unit), instead, use mantis with picks/ survivor with picks
If you bola one make sure too hit it in the back or it could kill you, that almost happened to me
The crafts for Enforcers aren't influenced by crafting skill, so any crafting bonuses are lost on them.
Use them to do the orbital drops they do 4 times more dmg on the corrupted dinos
Drops blueprint to be crafted. Lvl 80 will drop a lvl 75+/- blueprint. Can be held with bola. If you are standing in front of it while bola'ed it will teleport to you to attack, removing bola effect.
You don’t knock them out neither tame them. You kill them and get a blueprint of them. You can build those in the City Terminals you find in Sanctuary on Extinction.
They use Element dust you can farm from lanterns in Sanctuary or from other Enforcers or Scouts.
They can teleport (yes onto walls aswell) they can climb on walls and ceilings. They slowly use up Element dust (that powers them)
Just Grapple onto a cliff and shoot them a few times with a rifle and leave there bodies there, you’ll get some more spawns coming if the body stays a while. Srsly amazing trick.
In extinction, you can kill some of the defense units, then if you go into the badlands you find this small thing that allows you to build one, if you have enough resources, the more leveled up they are, the more they can teleport, The most teleport things they can have is five, but can reload within seconds
Enforcers are craftable tames. You cant tame them, but once crafted they have several attacks, can teleport ahead (think Tracer from OverWatch) and can climb walls. They are an interesting mount to have and seem to do a good or decent deal of damage having lasted longer than my corrupted rex did and able to keep up with my gasbag once airborn. It has three teleporting charges that recharge over time. Left click attack, right for teleport I believe. I am not sure what it eats if it eats yet.
According to the devs this will be tamed by killing it and then getting a blueprint* from it.
*there will also probably be an engram for it
This creature is seen in the Ark extinction trailer. It can teleport and may be tameable or craftable. Can’t wait!
These guys are really fast and they can climb walls fast too. You can feed them element dust and they run out really slowly so as long as you have some leftovers your fine for that. They dont take fall damage and they level up for like 30 weight at once and like 20 health at once. They can jump and if you can use r3 (for ps4) to make whatever your attacking get butchered by any dinosaur nearby. I hope you see this and by the way make them at lvl one they level up quick.
They are a disposable army. You can easily build 10-15 of these low to mid level ones and do much better than just one ascendant one. You can either use as frontline fodder or to surround orbital drops so smaller dinoes don’t sneak by while Gigas or other dinos do the heavy lifting. Snatch the bps of good ones if they die.
Higher level ones are great for vertical maps with no flyers (Aberration, Genesis 1 or Fjordur inner biomes).
or Any mission you don’t care for it to comeback from.
I mainly level stamina and depending on the role health or weight.
Repulse Ability and teleport combo gets you out of trouble quick.
Okay so I found this out about bolas. If they teleport to you they break out of bolas, but if you are close when you bola it it will just try to walk to you and won’t teleport so it will stay in the bola.(90% sure, this is from tests not facts)
