Your warnings can’t stop me from making a mutant dodo army
How did you know that I recommended your channel yet again over on Reddit today!? You have the clearest and cleanest explanation I've seen, and I happily send people your way every time I see someone confused about breeding.
Much appreciated! I am happy if I can help
I always refer to your video when ever anyone asks about breeding/ mutation info. Your video was the one that made the most sense out of everything I’ve watched!
I haven't played ark in years and then came back and still watch your videos to brush up on new mechs i didn't event know. keep up the good work and I hope you continue your work on ark 2 as well.
Thank you for always being dedicated for making sure we have the most updated information on breeding
Finally!, a truly comprehensive guide that answers all my questions. And explains that higher stats = higher levels. Thank you so much!
breeding is probaly the most complicated mechanic, in all games, not just ark
Official really should add a stat counter on the tames levels to show where the points went. Would also be nice to see how many points the survivor has put into the tame already.
I absolutely agree. I don't get why that hasn't been done already
Thank you for this!!! You made my day. I've recently only started playing Ark on console. This will help out so much
I hope you enjoy ARK!
Seasoned player and I still learned some things, much appreciated!
Hello! Thanks again for the awesome content!!
You have a glorious wealth of knowledge in this game and it’s very kind of you to share for all!! If you read all of this, I apologize in advance. 😝
In one of your other breeding videos, do you break down Method 2 ( 3:54 ) in more detail?? 😊 Or is there somewhere I can talk to someone who can break down method 2 in this video in more detail? lol 😁.
I get lost at the beginning of that methods explanation when you say “try to collect the stats as high as possible on the various tamed animals and then you mate them to make a breeding pair with all the good stats”.
I have a bunch of high level tames/eggs but I’m just lost as to what I do to finally get them from that, to having that actual first breeding pair with the stats I want. How do I combine the stats of all my best wild tames to start my “best” breeding line and boost the stats further through the breeding process. (I think I grasp the stat combining process through breeding, I’m just lost on how to start the process successfully).
I’ve been afraid to start any breeding with any of my high level wild tames and mess them up before I even start. Lol
I play on console, so there’s no spyglass mods and I play on an unofficial server with no level caps.
Thank you,this is the most useful video I have seen.
So much information I would love a big in depth video
Technically you can watch the playlist just all at once :D
Really detailed and sharp guide, thanks! But there is something that is often left out and maybe you could share your experiences with the most efficient building set ups for bredding different dinos.
As far as I know there are differences in mating range between official server, unofficial and local. And as the breeding range limits the amount of females you can place around a male, it directly increases the time you need to get a new mutation on average.
I experimented a little bit with slopes to also gather the eggs effiently to have all babies to be stacked up for quick and easy killing experience. Though I just started playing a few weeks ago so I guess there are a lot of better breeding build/stations out there than I can make up myself at the moment :D
There are no differences between official and unofficial. For local play its indeed broken. I reported it a while ago but they don't do changes to the original game anymore. The distance was supposed to be the same on all of them.
Awesome vid Tiia!!!!
Thank you lovely ♥
Excellent video, will share with others who ask about Ark breeding. Now one thing I like to do is to name my breeder males after their key stat (for example, if my first health male has 40 level in health, I will name him 40 health), that way when you look at eggs with the incubator it is silly obvious when you get a desired mutation for that stat.
I do the same. And the girls have my tribe name in it, in case someone gets the hands on my line and then pretend it's their work. Happend before.
Very good video, I did have a question though. I have my base parents, they share the same hp, stam, weight, and melee, but their food and oxygen are not the same. Would I need their food and oxygen to be identical as well or is that just to easily identify where the mut landed. I use the egg incubator so I see where the mut landed.
thank you very much that was a helpful video
I am glad it helped you!
I’ll save this for later thanks it’s quite simple
I watched your other video about mutation stacking and how if you want to max it you want an even number to start off with to get to 254 and since you made the mistake you were stuck with it on your Megatheriums... does that mean we cannot attach {X} amount of mutations to a new base male that has a an even starting number? Are the mutations "glued" in to the original base stat we started with?
Maewings make raising those lv 1/5 babbys a walk in the park.
Also getting the "-xxx/-xxx" mutations glitch makes getting mutations pass 20 easier.
I just started Ark, I am having a hard time telling if/what stat mutated, or is good as I have no frame of reference from other dinos, is there an easy way to learn this or a mod that can highlight what stats I got in the dino in game? So for example, if I got a dino with better hp that stat turns yellow or something? Or do I just have to know these stats? Sorry if you covered this, it was just a lot to digest I am sure I will be back watching this over and over
I’ve watched the in depth guide for mutation stacking many times and still yet to understand. However, upon watched this once i totally understand what i need to do. Recently, i bought a boss male rex with more than 5000+ mutations so i’m getting confused on what to next since i have 2 females with lots of mutations and few unmutated females as well. All in all thanks for the guide video. Trying to mutate lightning wyverns currently.
I even have a dedicated video about fixing breeding lines. That might fit your purpose just fine
hi can you help me , what can I do if I got one mutation in female and one mutation in male , but not all in female ?
Hi, really thank you. I have a question. I had 2 females with mutation. I can use the base male(father) for breeding a male with mutation?
So I’m a tad confused. What is the pct of the baby gaining a mutation if both parents are under 20 and what is pct if the father is 20 or more?is it 50 % or less?
Very nice video. I did not know that the stats you mutate needs to be even number. That being said, I dont have the time to breed on official with the rates they have, I had fun with breeding on my private server at 10x. On official, I will grind poly and metal and just buy my raid dinos and just breed to make copies or for color.
Good content
can you make a vid how to get the good what Rock drakes need on fjdour
I'm breeding bats. I have 7 mutations but the lineage says I have 11. When I get a female with a new mutation I bread it back with the original male till I get a new male for breeding. But why does it show 11. 4 health 2 melee 1 stamina
Dankeschön/Cheers for the guide, incredibly accessible for a new player!
On a different note, what would be a good place to look for people to pve with? None of my friends like ark, its frustrating..
Stay safe and gl with breeding y'all:)
I would check pages like battle metrics and look for high population servers
@@TiiaAurora Thanks, will do!
IF I'm understanding this correctly the breeding aspect is somewhat similar (even tho it's completely different) to breeding in Pokemon at least for competitive is concern.
I'm new breeding and have used your videos to understand breeding and mutation stacking. I have one question regarding dino colours, is there a process you follow if you want to merge a dino which has your ideal colours with a dino which you have already bred for stats and mutated?
I honestly just brute force it. Just keep breeding them and keep the offspring that has the most overlaps and then continue.
I was wondering this same thing. What I ended up doing was breeding my stats up first. Then I found the colors I wanted, bred those together and did the same thing with stats. Bred up a handful of females with at least half the colors I wanted and the male with the the most colors I wanted and started breeding until they were perfect. Then I made multiple Perfect Color Females with the colors I wanted then started breeding a Perfect Stats Male on them until I got a Perfect Stat and Color male. Then bred him on both sets of females until a Perfect Female was born. It was a grind.
Okay watching this I have a pretty big question - Is there a spreedsheet or some database that exists which will allow me to see the minimum levels dinos can spawn at max difficulty (1.0 for 150s to spawn), As you stated some dinosaurs spawn at lvl 15 minimum and not 5, I've been trying to find a lvl 5 desmodus for quite some time now and the lowest I can find is lvl 15. So I really wanna know if i'm just having bad luck and not finding my golden goose or if it doesn't exist in the first place.
Hey! Yes I made a video about it th-cam.com/video/q0vALzcV1lY/w-d-xo.html :)
Would my standard strat from a few years ago work? Which is making a perfect breeding pair with several females and then breeding for mutation on a male and swapping him in for the previous male?
Its still the standard aside from you dont need a perfect breeding pair, only a male with the stat you want to mutate.
Hello Tiia, I am breeding Velonasaurs for mutations on Xbox and I have gotten up to six mutations so far (Five in stamina and one in weight). I have noticed that the levels of the babies always vary wildly between my six unmutated perfect females (Level 224) and my current mutated male (Level 240). Is this normal or have I done something wrong?
no that's absolutely normal especially when you have more than one mutated stat on the male or the females are not the same level. It just means not every baby gets all the good stats every time.
@@TiiaAurora; Thank you very much, just wanted to make sure I didn't do anything wrong like mixed different movement speeds despite the egg incubator showing them as the same. You know how Ark can be sometimes. 😅
i have 4 females and 1 male all level 372 with Matrilineal mutations of 54066666/20 and patrilineal of 2092903/20 is there no way i can mutate these anymore? (i traded for the eggs of these)
I have a quick question..... side note Ive watched all your vids which make up the majority of my knowledge for breeding on official. Plz forgive me if you've covered it before ive tried skimming through the vids once again without an answer. Heres my question: i have ran into a problem with babies being too high level once i breed in the desired traits trying to avoid reaching the level cap. For example my mana line(s) has 64 pts in stam & another with 82 naturally i tried to breed in the 82pts but noticed after raising one with 64pts i leveled 4 points into it and reached the same level of stamina as the 82pt line. Therefor to hit the 2700 stamia mark the level only increased by 4 lvls leaving more room to get to level cap. My desired level at birth is usually 380 because most players wont see more then 70+ points unless they take time to level it up. Which would be the better route? Starting higher which will require less effort to level but starts with 2700 stam & closer to level cap or leave more room to get to level cap. Hopefully you understand what im getting at with such complex question. Playing ark ps console edition.
Thanks!
It def is a little bit juggling when you have to play on official servers with the level cap. I personally think it won't make a big difference honestly if 2700 is your "endgoal" of how much stamina people want to have. When you wanna keep levelling it tho, you want to have the higher stat because the amount of stamina you get per level up is depended on the base stat you started with. So a higher level one gets more stamina per level than a lower level one.
hey aurora ,i been breeding my mutated male carcha with mutated females.base melee line was 40 and now i got 60 melee male but just capped mut count on father side 20/20,my rates are 3x,2 days for fully maturation,do you think its worth starting over with clean females or do i continue breeding this male but with clean females?tkz
I would continue with the male but with double the amount of clean females.
Im surprised how many people are still totally unaware of breeding mechanics lol playing in massive official tribes i guess helped me learn like 3 years ago lol
ARK got a lot of new players this year.
And to be fair. I met a lot of long year PvPers absolutely clueless about basic ARK mechanics.
I was trying to find more information on probabilities on up/down mutations in Ark and eventually found the decompilation code on reddit from 5 years ago. Looking at the code, they hard-coded up mutations by 2 stat points (as well as only opposing gender mutations, which seems to violate how Maewings breed), so my guess is that this code from 5 years ago is outdated. Do you know of any information about the probability of an up mutation vs a down mutation? Also, is it possible that code changes over the years have affected any conventional stats that we've "known" over these years? I've seen some of your videos on your own experiments with getting stats from the game, so was thinking you might have the best input on this.
Do you mean animals losing stats with mutations when saying "down-mutations"? That's not in the game.
The mechanics are still the same. The game will treat them as 2 genders, when going through the breeding process.
@@TiiaAurora He might have two dinos with different levels, so his lines aren't set up right.
at 9:34 for the core mechanics, if a parent has 20 mutations then it can't trigger a new mutation, does that mean if i got a Perfect F and a 20M Male i can still breed those until 21M and that it cant get mutated into a different stat?
You can still get mutations in all stats but your chances are roughly halved because the capped animal is not available as a trigger for a mutation.
I now breeded a Triceratops male with 28 Points in Health with a low level Female and the egg in the Incubator says its Male Lvl 160 1 Mutation Male side 43 Points in Health is this possible or am i just dumb or what happens here
I still struggle with breeding but love the video
It get's better, I promise
@@TiiaAurora i hope so, i only play single player due to having no one to play with but i have sorted out the single player settings so its abit quicker for breeding and stuff
im confused. u have shadowmane 255 but the max is 254. than its batter to have odd at the beginning so u become 1 additional lvl. if u begin with even u lose one lvl
I have a 255 to show you can't level it anymore. But especially for melee you wanna go for 254
@@TiiaAurora so, if I have an odd stat, like mele or health like 39. I am better off just finding a new dino that has an even Stat like 38?
@@kittencobbler or you feed it mutagen and it gets to 44
@@TiiaAurora Sorry for the late replay, but i got corona xd. For better understanding, can u please show us the stats from 245 and 255, so we can see what is the difference. Thank u very much for ur effort, btw great video, keep going :)
Do you stream? Which is the real you?
Hi, Can I replace males instead of replacing females? I have two Carnos max level, they are the originals, and one has really high melee and the other really high hp, a mutated female came out of them with extra hp and a really cool color, what can I do?
You breed the female with an unmutated make to get her stat on a male baby. Check out my video about mutation stacking that explains it.
@@TiiaAurora Thanks a lot! a saw both videos a few times and understood everything, currently on a good path.
I have a breeding pair but the they have 2 mom and 3 dad mutations on both. If i breed them the babies are identical which i wanted to get a bunch of females to start getting mutations. Am I doomed because this has caused false mutation numbers to hit 20/20 sooner or can it be saved? Your videos are great but still confused if this is saveable or if my two 185 deinos need a 150 with no mutations thrown in to save it
Yea I would get at least clean females and use those for mating.
@@TiiaAurora thanks for the prompt reply, so the fact they are and identical pair doesnt matter. I saw someone's video showing identical base pairs were ideal but you're saying not necessary?
You're only mutating the dad's stats anyway. So the baby would need to get that and then have a mutation on it.
What happens of I breed mutant female with mutant male? Cuz I got male with 4 mutant from dad and 1 from mother and I got one same but female so of I breed them together I won't get stats?
You will artificially drive up the mutation counter and cap your counter before even reaching new mutations
@@TiiaAurora alr ty so I breed the male with 4 mutant from father and 1 female mutant with f0 female and I will get more mutation and better stats?
On the odd or even stats, could you just quit mutating at 253 if you have an odd number?
Yes you can do that. It usually also fine doing it. But if you want to maximize your stats a 253 looks bad :D Its mainly for your inner OCD
@@TiiaAurora Thank you. My inner OCD is not strong enough to make me start over.
Hii dear can you teach me details about ark Dino breeding..? For stats
That's what this video is about.
1) Can I use a potion to change the sex of the female to male if you get the stats or color on a female?
there are mods that support the switch, yes
Yeah I don't have weeks lol anybody got recommendations on what to change my settings too? I've tried before but they'd mature to fast I couldn't imprint or they'd need an imprint every 20 seconds for 3 % imprint progress so I obviously haven't figured it out yet and I'm playing by myself trying to ascend I can't have 300 dinos I can't freaking feed 30 baby's and the other few dinos I have with out constantly having to worry about meat
Settings can only change the speed. Otherwise only mods can help
You don't need to imprint onto them when breeding for mutations. Do that for the final product.
Swear it looked like it was helping thanks for setting me straight got my megas at 10k health 500 dam rn
Does it matter if they don’t have the same level?
Not really. Mine usually don't
Can I do it without the dlcs
Sure. Breeding has been in the game since forever.
Wie breede ich stats auf femaleside?
You don't
bro gave use a whole school lessen😂
Be prepared. Test is next Monday. Results will be 50% of this years grade
I'm not sure that the mutations being 20 or above is a limiter anymore.... I've bred above 20 recently and it increased the mutations on both sides.
20 never really was a limiter
@@TiiaAurora so does it just change chances for mutations? I ask because it doesn't seem to affect that as the numbers kept going up pretty consistently for me
Are you using mods? @@meandmyshadowgovshh
@TiiaAurora no this is on ps5. Although I say consistent, idk if the mutation counter isn't supposed to go up if you don't get a mutation. That's what I have been using to tell me if a mutation occurs, which.... may be wrong now that I think of it.
@@meandmyshadowgovshh If you breed mutated with mutated the mutation counter will go up regardless. Without getting a new mutation.
Hey hot stuff. I’m looking for a breeding guide on using negative mutations, it’s very complicated process and there are few to no accurate videos on this.
All your guides are very well done and this negative breeding for mutations would put you as the clear number 1 breeding guide maker of all time.
Surely you’ve heard of this process.
It's an abuse of a bug in the game and therefore I can't make content on it since I am bound to the content creator agreement
DO U KNOW ABOUT NEGATIVE MUTATIONS???
It's a game glitch which I am not allowed to promote
I'm starting to think I'm just stupid cuz I have watched many videos about this and still don't understand a thing
Russian Guide please 😄)
This is a great vid its very clear and well made but onestly breeding in ark is so convoluted and confusing it feels like im going to fucking university lol. at this point i don't even have a desire to figure all this out 🤣 way too much work and far, FAR too complicated lol
POV: sighs and turn game off 😒
shit feels like a whole ass biology class project/2 week assignment
I just have to say, if a core game mechanic takes months or years to do, it was poorly thought out
The opposite for me, more replayability = gg's
This is so complicated, whoever created this system is quite frankly insane.
this system turns a lot of people off, imagine doing all this work just to farm some bosses then do all this work again on a new map (ik you can transfer tames but still, this is just asinine)
