How do I kill a ravager? ravager battling strategies in ARK: Survival Evolved.
Watch out for their gnash. It's nota devastating as the giga's is but it is a mild slow that renews every time they bite you and makes it so you can't get away until you kill them. Hopefully a later patch lets you inflict gnash after tame but as of right now only wild can do it.
They can follow you across zip lines
Can damage thatch have yet to test other structures.
The bleed damage they do is insane. Do not think that because you have a higher level dino than the entire pack that you are safe. You will get pregnant and you will die.
They sometimes jump at you you can juke them off cliffs
A pack of these are seriously bad news. NEVER encounter with raptors! 3 lvl 16 Ravagers whiped out my group of 3 raptors (146, 50, 50) and a lvl 16 Ravager!
If it gnashes your mount just jump off and run it’s as good as dead. Just get away while they eat your pet that’s your only chance of survival.
Be careful fighting Ravagers, even with a strong mount. A pack of Ravagers can bleed your mount a significant amount, which will take a long while to heal back.
When encountering, be very careful, these fast creatures travel in packs such as Direwolves, and Hyaenodon. And have a massive bleed effect similar to the Allosaurus. A great tame to have when roaming Aberration, while looking to have protection.
At low level stay clear of them as they will kill you and your tamed creature in second due to their number,DoT attack and pack bonus.
Their bite, along with a bleed damage effect, also produces a slowing effect so be very careful.
They will kill everything you own, build spikes build walls and try to run
If you run into one bola your friend and run far away
If you find a pack bola your friend and run
They have a lot of health so beware
I’m pretty sure at night there faster than in the day and if the alpha bites you, you get the gnash effect
While a tamed one is good, the wild ones can go fuck themselves their spawn rates need to be nerfed
They travel in packs, slow you, there is alphas, so have fun and watch out
Easy to bola, but come in packs. Can out run them if you invest a few points into movement. Best to just single out the Alpha for taming.
Absolutely can and will damage wood structures. Took out a bunch of pillars holding up our way down to the water and the gates as well. Will chase you for a good bit too.
