Even when tamed, they ONLY EAT FISH MEAT! I was lucky and found this out before my otter even started farming! Garnet is a helpful little boy. Gon’ get him a W I F E

I finally found an otter near the rivers and a random spino ran in and ate it :(

When looking for otters, you can enable a parasaur's turret mode and carry it with an argy and fly across the river bordering the snow biome. (The Parasaur marks otters as enemies)

Fun fact:Otter spawns at any river maybe a bit rare of them but if you have 2 otter and mated make a farm to became common but on waterfalls it has 45% to spawn on rivers 20-35% but on large rivers(including shore rivers) it has 10% cause of the danger if you tame it anything you kill he/she will gather meat/prime meat/fish meat/prime fish meat on dead bodies up if this help

Use them to hatch your eggs I used 2 of my otters to hatch a wyvern egg because I didn’t have enough air conditioners

this is more of a question but how many spots for an otter have in ragnarock

On mobile: You can tame it passively by feeding it, prime fish meat > cooked prime fish meat > raw fish meat > cooked raw fish meat.

You can pick them up with Argies and tame them right in your base or if you have taming food on your hot bar, you can tame them in the air while the argy is carrying them.

They can’t carry artifacts on mobile but they still insulate both you and fertilized eggs.

Pls don’t kill otters… they give plack pearls after killing fish or I think harvesting clams(silica pearls). This is super useful during late game!

Otters get silica pearls and black silica pearls from dead fish’s inventory. They eat the fish, and then the pearls get transferred over to the otter’s inventory.

For gathering with the otter you don’t always have to pick him up and double tap F for him to gather and attack targets you can use the whistle command “attack this target” and it does the same thing but without having to pick him up and double tap F and he doesn’t have to be on your shoulders.

What I do is I throw him off my shoulders I go and kill the fish myself and once I got a good group of dead fish I just use whistle “attack this target” and he gathers the meat and pearls from the dead body. Hope this helps for anyone that was constantly picking the otter up and double tapping F to gather.

Do you say they’re just cute tames? No real use? WRONG! I took my level three otter out and got it to kill a fish. When I went into my house to get the fish meat out of it’s inventory, there was twelve fish meat AND 1 silica pearl. And you might say, oh, silica pearls are easy to get. Oh? Well then how easy is it to get a BLACK PEARL? Oh, pretty easy, cause yeah, my otter had that too! They can just kill fish and get pearls! Up if you find true and helpful!

There so cute and I love them if your in the right world they spawn like hot cakes near the swamps

My prayers are with Henry Otter

I bred otters and the parent killed the baby. Lesson is be careful when breeding otters, some are adorable,cannibalistic maniacs.

While it is probably the cutest creature in ark, let’s not forget that it has a use. It is the best gatherer of black pearls, one of the most valuable resources in the game.

From my experience they spawn around green ob

guys I searched for three hours without finding any

tips for where to look?

Grab the otter with your argentarvis but not with the claws, instead do it with the beak. That way you can carry him from river to river searching for big fish while he is sitting with your argi. Remember to change your argi to passiv

They're on Genesis in the Arctic in the east haven't really seen them anywhere else but every map is different. Hope this helps😊

I like otters I just saw bad boy otter from Dodo kids
