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

Pro-tip from someone that plays solo and with no electricity: THESE are the best incubators, period. Get a couple of high-level ones and level their melee damage (this increases their insulation percentage). They act as perfect little den mothers and hatch your eggs.

Cute little fact about ark otters. You can put little hats on them(can be any hat, skinned or armor). They also help to keep you warm when you carry them

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)…

These guys are so worth it I had max tames and I killed my giga for it rip giga but it was worth it you gotta do what you gotta do

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…

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…

I saw a spino stomp one and I watched as my dino army ate the spino alive all the spinos siblings could do was watch in horror because they were next save all otters from getting killed by those dumb ahh dimetrodojs

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.

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…

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.

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)
