On Consoles (Xbox and PS) they give tons of mutton.
Ovis
The ovis is a sheep-like creature that many survivors find useful in farming. It can be found in the grasslands. While rare, it can be tamed simply by feeding it one Sweet Vegetable Cake. This sheep can be sheered with Scissors to obtain Wool, or killed to obtain Mutton. While the ovis can be mounted, it is not an ideal mount for transport and provides very little use once mounted, other than its ability to climb up steep inclines.
What ARK players use the Ovis for, and how to get the most out of it in ARK: Survival Ascended & Evolved.
Just killed two, one dropped two mutton, the other zero. This is on Xbox official with 2x lol. Thanks for the “fix”!
Tame a breed them then kill babies for a mutton farm
For the Island it’s really frustrating to find them, but if you look on the right island of the arctic region there should be some
I pretty sure you can ride these sheep once tamed but I could be wrong
This thing is AMAZING for getting pelt,raw mutton, and hide. You will never starve again!!
Good for mutton!!!!!!!!!!!
And farming!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just like prime meats, raw mutton dosnt stack bit the cooked lamb chops do. Keep in mind that if the dino likes mutton, the cooked stuff is still going to be very effective and the cooked stuff will last much longer too. Just be careful if you put cooked mutton in a preserving…
Just like prime meats, raw mutton dosnt stack bit the cooked lamb chops do. Keep in mind that if the dino likes mutton, the cooked stuff is still going to be very effective and the cooked stuff will last much longer too. Just be careful if you put cooked mutton in a preserving bin with oil because it will become prime jerky. Actually many people don't realize that prime fish also becomes prime jerky, and cooked fish becomes normal jerky. DONT let that tasty sheep meat go to waste. For thoes who live closer to the coast, pretty much all of the sheep spawn locations are inland and kinda scattered in the south. But the sheep are highly concentrated in the snow biome and on top of a mountain in the redwoods. If you play ragnarock, if you spawn in the highlands you WILL see sheep at some point. In the highlands their spawn chance is the same as a moschops, but they will spawn in herds. Also there is a sheep with 4 horns like the ovis in real life that lives today, it's called a Jacob sheep, they have 4 long horns just like the ovis. For some reason the ovis is not in mobile, and I think I know why. Mobile has microtransactions that allow you to by soothing balm and other items that speeds up taming, and mutton is specifically used to speed up carnivore taming. I'm not completely sure if this was the case, but it definitely makes sense. The second theory I have is that if you have the ovis you need the shears, and mobile dosnt include any player or creature painting, and hair cuts are selected on character creation, so it's quite possible that the ovis wasn't included due to the absence of that.
This has been another excessively long review by SloppyCrow
Always have one female and one male so you can breed for infinite mutton, cryo pod the babies for access anywhere
Slaughter as babies! They give more mutton
There's no use to tame them on Ragnaroke and aberration they span a lite and don't need to be tamed to sheer
can we have this sheep in ark so it doesn't take a long time to tame
Best thing to fight gigas and bosses
Since the attack does a bit of torpor, I guess you could use this for taming. If you really wanted to. Though literally your fists would be better...
This is more a question than a tip, but can you get mutton from them when they aren't tamed? Also make sure to breed them as fast or faster than you kill them. If you kill one and have some left over, cook it. It will still be very good for tames.
Tame and wait until you're going to tame something big like a giga then kill ovis and harvest with chainsaw.
I don't know y but my ovis baby died after I sat at its feet for 2 hours feeding it. It holds so few berries for so long. It had 7 berries left then boom dead. Don't let it get to low on food and have a buddy 2 help u.
?its a sheeeeep. Who doesn't like sheeeeep? Baaaadd peeeopple
Only pump food if you want wool.get a breeding pair of them and raise them note that they fall through ceilings and rarely foundations. I have one that has 28k food and it gives me 30 wool every 20 to 30 minutes these are good if you are looking to make some quick ingots or…
Only pump food if you want wool.get a breeding pair of them and raise them note that they fall through ceilings and rarely foundations. I have one that has 28k food and it gives me 30 wool every 20 to 30 minutes these are good if you are looking to make some quick ingots or maximize your pelt for those insane fur blueprints. I go on a killing spree and look around rivers and water I find a lot up north past the north found one once near swamp near the intersection
Mutton farm is insane and nice to have to tame
