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

I recommend using it for carrying large loads of items because if you carry the otter (at least on switch) its inventory doesn't count to your weight.

On mobile, the best place to look for otters is that large river that runs near the redwoods. Otters also don’t require whole fish like the Dododex says, just regular fish Meat will do fine. I do recommend you pick them up and bring them to a safe location though. My otter…

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

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

Put all points into melee and bold the otter all the time, then whistle attack target at a fish and walk towards the fish with the otter on you and it will still get pearls

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.)

Everyone’s saying how they are extremely rare in groups.

I just found three decent level ones right by the cliff On the redwood beach.

I've only seen one of these, in a lake/pond size of water. DO NOT ATTACK ANYTHING SEMI STRONG. U can put these cute little guys on yr shoulders and carry them around. I lost my only one to a Thrinsasour or those sloth things that r like gods ;-; in memory of Otto R.I.A.P.…

This game is hard, man. I was on a trip, quite a long one, and my 2 wandering otters on a little house (1 foundation) were mating. When i came back, 2 dead baby otters... I didn’t even know they were born ;(

VERY IMPORTANT

While tamed they can still attack,meaning if a raptor pounces on you the otter can actually kill the raptor,my otters have saved my lives from raptors multiple times
