Otters are like baby kittens So CUTE!!!
Otter

What ARK players use the Otter for, and how to get the most out of it in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Tame an otter find a river with no meat eating fish yeet the otter and you got black pearls
They can carry more than one of the same artifact on it :) very nice. Adorable when unconscious.
Otters can get pearls from fish and a lot of people know that but they can also hold more than one artifact a unique ability for a dino that it can only do and the player cant hit up so more people see this tip
Otter babies are very easy to raise, as they hold and entire 25 pounds of fish meat when first born. Not sure if this is an oversight, but just fill it with meat once, then refill a few more times before it hits juvenile. Can be hard to claim when first born because they tend…
Otter babies are very easy to raise, as they hold and entire 25 pounds of fish meat when first born. Not sure if this is an oversight, but just fill it with meat once, then refill a few more times before it hits juvenile. Can be hard to claim when first born because they tend to bounce all over the place. Overall very fun and easy to raise.
If ur having the problem where they starve and self delete quick, try raw fish meat, for some reason they don’t like normal meat.
These are awesome shoulder pets, as mentioned, they keep you warm and the weight of anything in its inventory is halved but they also make great bodyguards, I put a little into weight and health the rest into melee, not only will it increase it's insulation buff but if set…
These are awesome shoulder pets, as mentioned, they keep you warm and the weight of anything in its inventory is halved but they also make great bodyguards, I put a little into weight and health the rest into melee, not only will it increase it's insulation buff but if set to attack target, will bite anything that is aggressive and gets too close, Ollie has saved my ass a few times now.
Also, to tame one I would suggest using a flying mount to pick it up and drop it in a 1x1 with a 1 door for access and bring an Ichthyornis for collecting the fish, set the ichthy to agressive and follow, stand next to the door and wait for the fish to be delivered to feed the otter.
If you want to keep it alive as long as possible, equip it with a ghillie mask as it will get the camouflage buff as well, this will help it stay hidden if accidentally dropped.
After taming these guys, put one around your neck they’ll keep you warm so you don’t have to make warm armour for the colder places in ARK
I literally just tamed an otter, swam across a river to my base and when I looked into the otters inventory she had one pearl and one black pearl!
Keep it away from piranha and salmon. Put a strong helmet to keep it safer. Also, it takes a lot more salmon than it says on dododex. Lvl 150 took about 20 salmon

Like Kairuku and Dimetrodons, Otters can provide insulation based on their damage status. They are, however, easier to tame and can be carried on shoulder opposed to Dimetrodons, with a smaller hitbox than both the other two while retaining a good insulation capacity, so it's possibly to easily gather as many as 12 around a single egg.
On the con side, their insulation AoE is quite small, so hatching multiple eggs might require a ton of them, wasting creature slots. They have a very low Food stat as well, moreover they are mammals and thus cannot have their genetics stored in the form of eggs inside fridges, so stay ready to feed them fish every 4-5 days.
Otters also act like structure storage units, so one can use them to carry as many Artifacts as it wants.
Level up Melee Damage for portable ACs and living scarfs, Weight for Artifact backpacks and Food as a security measure on breeding stock.
Guys this is for mobile players I am playing on a single player 2.25
And the otter can't hold on to artifact like in normal pc ark I spent hours dying in the swamp for it and found out the hard way so please don't make the mistake
Otters can hold more than 1 of the same artifact in their inventory. Great for artifact runs.
Excellent for warmth in the mountains! Raise the attack for better insulation
They do not hold infinite artifacts on mobile, unfortunately
🪙TIP:If you can't find one of these cute otters you will have to look close to rivers mostly rivers near swamps but not in swamps here is coordinates to find one on the regular island wich is now the only map available for mobile!60.0°East 30.0°North on a gps simply…

I'm pretty sure that otters work like scarfs so they keep you warm. not sure if that's confirmed but it works for me
you can find these cute little fella's at the beaches (they are mostly in the water)
don't forget to give it a helmet, it's very weak!! 🥺

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.
