What are tips for otter? Tips and strategies for otter in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
My otters are named Otterroshi (thank you, little sis.) Baby, Doll, and Rosey.
If you’d like one I highly suggest scanning beaches with small land masses in the middle! Breaks them up into two and I’ve had so many spawn it’s insane!
If you're looking for them on Aberration, bring a Parasaur with Turret Mode to a river in the Fertile Zone. For whatever reason, Otters are classified as enemies, so the Parasaur can find them easily! Got like 12 of them thanks to this.
for mobile on single player, don’t know if the mechanics are the same on PC or multi, but otters set to aggressive will NOT HARVEST PEARLS! if you wanna farm pearls, you have to have one low atk aggressive otter (so its less likely to get the killing blow and harvest meat) and one or more attack target otters, when the aggressive one attacks a fish the others will follow suit and they can harvest pearls safely
Here is a surprise, if u can transfer one to scorched earth, fill its inventory with food, and wear it, it will keep you cool from the hot desert and control your dehydration a very good bit, along with the desert suit and a morellatops, you are almost immune to any dehydration on scorched earth, just don’t die 😅
If you really want one it takes about 4 minutes to tame a level 5 and 6 fish meat in mobile
Otters likes shalow lakes and watterfalls. Best way to tame otter is to kill all salmons around it, cause corpses has long time before it disappears and straight away feed them without any intervals cause they dont have cooldown on feeding time. After tame pick it up and you will get insulation from cold. Leveling otter is best to give all stats to oxygen as it increase insulation resistance. And you will forget biome struggle :) good luck finding them.
They may be adorable, but if you hurt them or their fuzz buddies, they will become angery, and can actually do pretty decent damage. I'm a level 100 player with around 250 HP and when unarmored, 7 can kill me in seconds. They also can do a number on your armor. Otherwise, they are cute and cuddly and friendly.
If u kill this or even hit this every dino in the game will kill u
Stop killing cute things you monster

Otters are so cute my first one got killed i never even had it for a whole day
You can pick them up with a pteranodon and feed him fish while going to your base. Very easy method
Just remember where the otter is then kill a fish and boom tamed

When you are taking them you have to drag fish to them but once they are tamed you can just give them fish meat (I did not know that)
They are so hard to find when you are on a save that doesn’t have otters at all but full of terror birds and raptors. -_-
Bring an Argentavis, use right stick to pick up the otter in it’s mouth. Now you can tame it without chasing it around. Set the Argy to passive so it doesn’t kill the otter trying to defend you if something attacks mid-tame.
