What ARK players use the Fjordhawk for, and how to get the most out of it in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.

It's going to be a shoulder mount and cannot be ridden sadly but will be a useful shoulder mount that can retrieve some or most of the items you had at the time of death, that can also alert you of potential prey and weakened creatures near you.

This lovely creature, the Fjordhawk, will take all of what it can carry from your inventory and fly away when you face danger. When you respawn, it will bring your items back to you! Very useful for those who encounter death often.

Sometimes they fly off if the bed isn't enclosed a simple 1x1 house does the trick

Weight does NOT matter for fjordhawk, please stop saying it does. It can carry blackboxed ingots with no problem (just make sure you account the amount of bag slots for your gear or you will run the chance of it not being brought back)

Anyone else find out that when you log off or they leave your shoulder they fly to some random location (like the top of the world or next to funky rock formation) and then just don’t come back? I have two hawks- one’s called chad and he doesn’t do this but the others…

Same person who made the Fenrir tip ummm they can be found in the snow portal world which is hard cause no matter what you do put on fur clothes and eat focal chili you put a otter around your neck you freeze from hypothermia and lose health pretty quickly so its a pain to get…

Just max the hawks health even if ur black boxed the hawk brings ur whole inventory

You can bring these into a boss fight and if you die it will bring your inventory back to you

It could bring your lost items to you when you died and could bring items from corpses to you

Perfect for search and rescue, also, follow pros that have there inventory full all the time, steal whatever they drop

It doesn't retrieve them more like it holds onto them and runs away

The Fjordhawk is much like a dire wolf in the sense that you can see when a creatures health is low

These guys are so useful for getting your stuff and guess what? They can get artifacts off you when you die and bring them to you!

Hi Guys! So there is only one problem with the Fjordhawk… IT WILL GO BACK TO EVERY THING YOU HAVE KILLED and eat/collect it. So, if you drop it off your shoulder it will leave. And you might lose your little Fjordhawk. Hope this was helpful!

These are one of the most Loyal lil dudes I’ve ever seen! I died at like lvl 80 and my frigga brought my stuff back! I’m happy to have a hawk

These birds offer unlimited weight when transporting materials like metal across the map. You can place a bed near a safe location to harvest metal like the dwarven mine and fast travel there with a cryoppoded metal farmer and go to town on the metal putting it into a storage…

One of the easiest ways to tame is with the Kairukus as they spawn in big groups instead of looking for bigger animals and losing your hawk. Also they can carry a infinite amount of weight since they don’t put your items in there inventory, rather they just pick up the bag…

just enter a wyvern trench and get some eggs, kill yourself then respawn and the fjordhawk will bring you your eggs, its cheap as free!
