Player-written tips for taming, using, and fighting the Otter in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.

The easiest way to tame this guy since they spawn in often tricky areas, build a small pen near your base (fence founds and wooden fences will do fine just stack the fences to atleast 2 up) go to your local otter spawn and wait till they're on the surface then grab them…

You can tame a bunch of these in the ponds in the redwoods, they are very easy to tame just swim to the bottom of the pound and feed them fish

If u go hunting with you’re otter and they kill it sometimes they can give u black pears and white pears!

They are not that difficult to find, you may always find couple of these cupcakes in shallow water near RedWood. Just pick up one with your Arge and take it to safe area where you may passive tame it.

On mobile you can NOT carry an artifact with the Otter. It would be nice to see this change so that mobile has the same benefit as PC and Conceal when it comes to creature benefits.

Otters can get pearls from fish and a lot of people know that but they can also hold more than one artifact a unique ability for a dino that it can only do and the player cant hit up so more people see this tip

Otter babies are very easy to raise, as they hold and entire 25 pounds of fish meat when first born. Not sure if this is an oversight, but just fill it with meat once, then refill a few more times before it hits juvenile. Can be hard to claim when first born because they tend…

If ur having the problem where they starve and self delete quick, try raw fish meat, for some reason they don’t like normal meat.
