i am playing pvp official. i think that glitch is bad for greater harvest rate since you cant get much per run. Still need more time either official/unofficial. Make the game more grinder than before
True story: Me: *wandering around with my raptor *suddenly a trex Me: *fights off the trex Me: *goes back home Trex: *follows me Me and my creatures: *fighting till our last breath Trex: *killed all my creature except for my raptor Me *goes to my raft Me: *goes to the other island Me: *kinda crying inside Me: *saw my other raptors and said “yes! I thought you were dead” Me: *remembers my other raptors were chasing a dino to another island without dying Me *builds a house Me: *goes to the previous island to check if the t rex is gone Me: yes the trex is gone Me: *realizes my house is not wrecked by the trex Me: dang it Me: * bringing my raptors to the previous island And starting a new (but previous) life
Brandon N starve tame em , it nearly half the original taming time , if u taming herbivore force feed it meat which makes the hunger go down faster , same with carnivores .then when food bar is three quarters down u feed it the required food
I used to think this too - it's not true though. Starve taming really only has one main benefit - you don't lose the kibble/food if the dino dies. Otherwise starve taming actually takes the same amount of time and resources. So if you're not feeding the dino kibble and concerned if another dino gets to it - just go ahead and start feeding it what it needs. This is particularly useful to know if you're trying to feed a carnivore fresh prime meat. The prime has a very fast spoil timer, so you need to keep gathering.
I remember being that Jimmy on the server, first day, playing ARK, and I thought it was all fun and games...I remember those days every time I go and grind...
Frog + Pike (Ghillie Feet and Ghillie Arms + Scuba Tank , Scuba Pants and Scuba Mask) Frog supplies thousands of Cementing Paste with the amount of bugs in there.
thanks for this, getting into ark now cus i need something to consume time for about a month, while i save for my pc, good guide for solo players like me.
as soon as I log on to a new server I... 1. get 10 thatch 1 wood make pick 2. get another 10 thatch,1 wood and heaps of flint with the pick 3. make axe and collect some fibre 4. get heaps of wood with axe 5. make spears 6. make storage box 7. get as much hide, fibre and wood as possible, fill storage box 8. build rafts, rafts and more raft all the way to level 35 9. get a ptera
Taht was the perfect video, thumbs up buddy, i follow you since a long time but this video made a huge difference when u went in the swamp cave, that's what i needed, cuz i was always very long to up to 85 for the forge ! thx mate
dude I absolutely love this video! I really wish that you would have slowed it down a bit it seems like you started speeding past the part right when it got to the trike, still a GREAT video, I'm actually using ur advice right now on a pvp/pve server, thank u
Random Dude How about weeks spent of getting 10 dinosaurs, 3 rafts, teik ter armor I think it was, and a gaint house taken away by a whole tribe on T Rexes and Brontos? That's way worse. I was so freaking pissed.
I've found that if your fortunate enough to get into a tribe with a grinder and a elemental/doedic just grind stone constantly. I've gone from lvl 1 to lvl 62 on an official PvP server on xbox in legitimately 2 days would've taken less time if I wasn't screwing around with my buddies in the tribe 😂
OG Brasi hey man do you have any problem finding the server where you first started playing on Xbox ? I keep losing my characters because I can't find the server :/
Or you could be smart about it at the start and use the meat you get off the dodo's to tame the Dilos and create an army that can take down even a bronto...
im really good at ark but there were some tips that i did not know about like the thatch and the raft i knew about but i never used it so thats womething thx so much and i liked and subscribed keep up the gr8 work
you can totally tell he force tamed the raptor because he could ride it without a saddle and the reason he was killing things so fast was because he was using ascendant bows and stuff and he put his pterra on God as u can see at the carno island. Some of this is helpful but most is not because he cheats
Are you a troll because he is giving tips this is not legit gameplay of course he is just showing you what to do and showing results this video did not say pro legit gameplay did it?
13:12 I love how you say "..you will parish." You can really tell from your voice that it's just as simple as that. If you go down there otherwise..you will die.. HAHA
When I first started playing on a server, this nice person gave me METAL TOOLS when I gave him wood. And I waz only lvl 2!!! But when I logged off for a while because of school and came back, this alpha person KILLED ME!!! NOOOO!!!!! ATUPID ALPHA GUY!!!
Being cringey is being a weird weird nerd... I feel like your calling me cringey because you have the need to be rude to somebody. I'm not weird but hey.. I am a nerd..
Your the designated ark guy I go to for pvp tips HoD One thing I don't know much about tho is breeding and raising DINOS can u do one of those for nubes lol
A couple things to mention, when going into the swap cave, the gear you want is - Scuba Tank, Mask and Pants, then you want Ghillie Boots and Gaunlets (So you can run if you need to) Second thing- The swamp cave can and will kick your ass at times, with the x5 difficulty increase, there are now level 450 dragonflies in there, by the dozens that will absolutely wreck you. We used to clear it with 1-2 wolves, now we are having to explore other options due to the difficulty of it.
It is by far and away the best loot of the caves and the best way to level up though, with 3 cave runs BEFORE the difficulty increase, i took someone +60 levels within 3 cave runs.
thanks, so glad I found your channel, just getting into playing this so yeah I am a jimmy noob lol have subscribed and look forward to destroying some dinos x stay classy 😁
7:20 did you just kill a trike with 3 arrows?!? Is the bow good or did it just have low health because it seems really strong to me but I've never used the bow
this way of leveling will take you about 30 minutes to get to level 5, to get to lvl 5 within 3 minutes, spawn on the south beach (west zone 3) then walk along the beach to get to an explorers note, easy 5 levels, theres another 5 in the same 2 mile radius that you can collect, you will be at lvl 25 at 20 minutes into a lobby, theres many videos showing where these notes are, there not hard to find at all finding these will be alot easier than maiing 50 thatch foundations
I'm lvl 83 is the swamp cave the absolute fastest way to get to level 100? And what about your saber/wolf what do they do against the meganura swarms? It would be great if you could dedicate a video for level 80+ but keep up the amazing work :)
Damm this actually helped my friend that barely started and me a player that has been playing for a long time, super helpful nect time i play i am going to try this stuff on the server i play on (speaking all my tames got killed) when i get my based finished first thing I am going to do is get a trike and the a parasour and later on peteranodon and so on. Wowzers this is the most i typed in a comment for a vid
Great video, and great advice for the new players. One thing, though. Everyone please, don't leave your rafts all over the server. It's messy, rude and screws up some people's frames. You're building it just for the XP. Don't place it in the water, just drop it from your inventory.
Thank you, sir. Your videos are seriously awesome, man. One of my favorite parts of your videos is in the recent cave raid, I fucking love that opening segment, it was cinematic, felt like an action movie! Great editing.
+Fish Woodward yeah i should have mentioned those just wantes to keep it to more basics for new players :) and the notes tend to have bases near them so there not guaranteed.
hey guys this one is very basic but hopefully its helpful!
i think its a good thing for community servers probably bad for officials though
H.O.D GAMING yeah its now 10x longer on officials
Grove St ehh now they are doing x2 events every weekend
i am playing pvp official. i think that glitch is bad for greater harvest rate since you cant get much per run. Still need more time either official/unofficial. Make the game more grinder than before
H.O.D GAMING its usefull i just got this on ps4 its great and i subbed to your channel
This is obviously if you are starting fresh, not if you have a tribe already started on a server as grinder is best!
H.O.D GAMING 10/10 intro keep up the good work
i know i forgot to mention alphas but i covered everything else let me know if there is something i missed :)
+H.O.D GAMING alphas arent guaranteed so i tried to keep it to consistent things and basic for new players
the survivor notes give you a lot of xp too and the xp boost :D
+D.D Gaming yeah i should have covered them but they are not guaranteed as people often buil near them still xhould have mentioned it though :)
I was playing on the hod servers and alphas kept despawning when we were killing them so we resorted to crafting spray painters, lvl 85 now :)
H.O.D GAMING you forgot to mention the cloth hat xp multiplier
leave a like if you want more! also hope you guys liked the cinematics spent way too long on it :p
What do you think of the Tek teir update
So theres an ark player and he kills a dodo to get hide i guess that dodo got a HIDING😜 anyone no ok
H.O.D GAMING is this sarcastic?
Amber Haran how so?
H.O.D GAMING I want video how to make safe place to put dinos (With starter resources) Like spike walls, wooden things and like that
leave a like if you have a jimmy in your life :)
I am jimmy XD looks like I have to like it but I already have when I click on your vid I like it automatically because I know it's going to be good
H.O.D GAMING what level Petra do u get if its only 1x taming speed and u have no kibble or prime
H.O.D GAMING my brother in rust
My brother is called jimmy
I thought he said that I could fight bigger dinosaurs when I get Ebola.😂😂😂
True story:
Me: *wandering around with my raptor
*suddenly a trex
Me: *fights off the trex
Me: *goes back home
Trex: *follows me
Me and my creatures: *fighting till our last breath
Trex: *killed all my creature except for my raptor
Me *goes to my raft
Me: *goes to the other island
Me: *kinda crying inside
Me: *saw my other raptors and said “yes! I thought you were dead”
Me: *remembers my other raptors were chasing a dino to another island without dying
Me *builds a house
Me: *goes to the previous island to check if the t rex is gone
Me: yes the trex is gone
Me: *realizes my house is not wrecked by the trex
Me: dang it
Me: * bringing my raptors to the previous island
And starting a new (but previous) life
Also there are many ways and other strats to use but this is what i use and find the best and most consistent!
I love this game but when it takes me six hours to tame shit it makes it impossible to get anywhere in the game
Go to a custom / hosted server then.
Richard Sees where do u find custom ones? i only find the official ones
Brandon N starve tame em , it nearly half the original taming time , if u taming herbivore force feed it meat which makes the hunger go down faster , same with carnivores .then when food bar is three quarters down u feed it the required food
iWrInstincts Go to Ark Community forums or Reddit
I used to think this too - it's not true though. Starve taming really only has one main benefit - you don't lose the kibble/food if the dino dies.

I'm lvl 96 and I find this helpful. I never knew how to make a pick axe
+DankTheMLG ahaa good to hear lol thought it might help :p
My Guy Dank Tf u need a pick and how r u 96 without one
Josh Iz Notk Vlogz it was a joke I think
Josh Iz Not Vlogz it was a joke man.
Woooooosh
Wow
I remember being that Jimmy on the server, first day, playing ARK, and I thought it was all fun and games...I remember those days every time I go and grind...
Swamp cave at the end is THE best way to level!
Frog + Pike (Ghillie Feet and Ghillie Arms + Scuba Tank , Scuba Pants and Scuba Mask)
Frog supplies thousands of Cementing Paste with the amount of bugs in there.
SickOfReality why gillie and scuba gear?
to survive the cave
cheapest way to survive in the cave without taking DoT.
What level were you when you went to the cave?
this the only video for ark I feel I actually took something from.

Super Kami Guru Waste of time. if you're playing on an official server, you'll lose health way too quickly

Random Dude How about weeks spent of getting 10 dinosaurs, 3 rafts, teik ter armor I think it was, and a gaint house taken away by a whole tribe on T Rexes and Brontos? That's way worse. I was so freaking pissed.

Great tips on levelling up. Great vid as well, thx
Did I see an ascendant bow?;)
haha this was amazing! i enjoyed watching it plus helped out with leveling faster in the beginning
Or you could be smart about it at the start and use the meat you get off the dodo's to tame the Dilos and create an army that can take down even a bronto...
Terra Games thats what ive always done early 👌
I’m doing that rn
im really good at ark but there were some tips that i did not know about like the thatch and the raft i knew about but i never used it so thats womething thx so much and i liked and subscribed keep up the gr8 work
Best way to level up early game is to slaughter dragon flys
awesome introduction. you made my top 3 go to. such I watch repeatedly. Cheers 😋 DB.
you can totally tell he force tamed the raptor because he could ride it without a saddle and the reason he was killing things so fast was because he was using ascendant bows and stuff and he put his pterra on God as u can see at the carno island. Some of this is helpful but most is not because he cheats
+GoldenMinecrafter 1794 it doesnt make a difference. Its besides the point. I dont have 20 hours to do this without admin its for a video
H.O.D GAMING BS
+GoldenMinecrafter 1794 lol what are you on about...
H.O.D GAMING this is fake try to play real survival like every other person who plays ark
Are you a troll because he is giving tips this is not legit gameplay of course he is just showing you what to do and showing results this video did not say pro legit gameplay did it?
This is a really great video! Thank you!

Exotic_ Dummy Why are you telling us this when you know nobody cares? Dont go raging on me cuz I'm savage. It just might be true. 😎
Exotic_ Dummy And Alpha or Admin? Because an Admin is a player and a Alpha is an only tamable by Admins dinosaur.

Excellent video, how many hours did it take you to get the robot dinosaur and metal armour?
I hate grinding so much, I thought I left it behind me until I lost my level 86 character to a cross server transfer yesterday
Nice vid. Love me some Ark!
How do you have that depth of field?

I honest loved your voice it compliments the corny jokes so much
Great video, and great advice for the new players. One thing, though. Everyone please, don't leave your rafts all over the server. It's messy, rude and screws up some people's frames. You're building it just for the XP. Don't place it in the water, just drop it from your inventory.

+Fish Woodward yeah i should have mentioned those just wantes to keep it to more basics for new players :) and the notes tend to have bases near them so there not guaranteed.
+H.O.D GAMING I understand
love the ascendant bow ;)
