What are tips for otter? Tips and strategies for otter in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
I saw one of these fellas in a nearby river surrounded by spinos, fortunately I was able to reach it, but the thing is I am a total noob so I tried to knock it out and feed it some fish but right after I did so my dodo murdered it without any hesitation, the poor thing squeaked as it was killed brutally, moral of the story, never underestimate your dodo, especially if you’re around a otter.
Its found in all the rivers so scan those and don’t head towards dangerous areas because they wont me there
To tame an Otter, simply interact with it (default "E" on PC) while dragging any kind of fish. Sabertooh Salmon is the best, Coel is the worst. Fish size matters more than type, so Megapiranhas are often worse than large Coels. When dragging large fish, chances are high that it will obstruct the vision while standing still; Just walk/swimm to the Otter and feed it before coming to a stop in order to keep the fish carcass behind you.
Quite common on Aberration, Otters spawn at large numbers from where the Fertile River delta splits in two (not going to the Fertile Lake) until its fall to the Luminous Marshlands. It's also worth note that the northern section has neither large predators nor Megapiranhas and Mantas on most of its lenght.
No other map has such a noteworthy spawn, but they can be found on most Redwood Forest lakes except for The Center, where it is unadvised to look for them.
Found easily in rivers on Abberation, near Spino spawns and are easy to spot by the cluster of fish protecting them. Sometimes you will see a Carbonemys swimming on top of a group. They eat a lot.
Don't plan on making a fuzzy otter army or Otterman Empire, unless you have a lot of fish income. Upping oxygen and melee may boost insulation, but with the level 55 (88 after tame) I got last night, it was only 12 hours before his food stat was dropping... already had one starve to death after 2 days of not playing.
When breeding otters throw Mum into a wooden cage, stand in there when she's ready to give birth and then it tends to make it easier to imprint on the baby. Saves you building a room for them unless of course you already have one spare
Where can I find an otter. Please tell me
If you can't find a otter in the normal spot you always do try killing some coel.
If you’re on a big Dino that is known to kill animals if they walk over them, be careful, Ive killed 2 accidentally on my spino
Oof. In ark mobile you tame this like any other passive tame using Fish/prime fish meat to do so
So it says these guys are piscivores and omnivores vote if you want it changes
If your friend kills it banishe him and lock him up for life and make him rember he killed a cute loving creature or instead of banishing just turn him into a peasant and put him to work
found some between the swamp and redwoods. (also I heard that if you upgrade their melee to 300 you won't freeze anymore. Not sure if it's true.)
If you tame it , it will die at soon .it s health slowly turns from 54 to 52 . Then it slowly dies
