Game description:
Ark: Survival Evolved is a sandbox survival game where players are stranded on strange lands inhabited by dinosaurs and other creatures. Gather, hunt, and build to survive the unforgiving wilderness. Compete with other players for precious resources and tame dinosaurs to ride and protect you. - เกม
One of the best things I can recommend is if you are not island locked is to bring 5-10 scout drones. You can kite so much things into the lava from a safe distance! Happy adventures!
Great idea!
@@SongbirdGaming it’s a game changer
My thyla didn't fit though it
@@King-kano thyla did not fit through where? What does that have to do with my top of using a scout?
For anyone still looking to do this the carcharodontosaurus fits the entrance to the cave, so it now is pretty much the best creature to use to lead into the cave, its tail swing can push many things into the lava its regen is great and with guaranteed bloodlust it is extremely strong
Oh good to know
A tip for any solo players running a singleplayer game is to take your tames through the first door one at a time. There is a load zone, and during it's loading dino's can walk through walls and fall through the map. Lost several rex's my first attempt that way.
Oh that’s a really good idea i’ve heard of getting meshed at the door but never had it happen
How to make a "train" of dinos:
Line them all up in the desired order, two-by-two is best. Jump on the lead dino (probably the one you'll be riding) and whistle follow specifically to the two right behind you. Then jump on one of those (that you just whistled to) and whistle follow to the pair behind that one, and so on to the last. This keeps all the dinos in a neat parade, so they don't crowd or trap you. A word of warning: GO SLOWLY. If one dino in the train ends up falling in the lava, the rest behind will mindlessly follow! If that happens, whistle follow to the one in the lava (if it can get out), or to the first savable one behind it.
Great advice !
Yes to this! Also would add, with theriz you can get away with a train 2 wide, but if you are using creatures that jump or that have a bigger turn radius (such as Allos or Rexes) do one wide. And, I usually recommend people who haven't done this before to set up their train before they get in the tech cave just on the beach somewhere and practice leading it around. Lead it around boulders and obstacles on the beach and try to get a feel for the follow distance you need between each creature or group, as well as how well they tend to turn. Some creatures can do fine on a low follow distance, theriz for example, some other creatures (Allos, stegos, etc) will get stuck on each other at that follow distance and do better with a medium follow distance.
Also. Especially if you are doing this solo, put the creatures in the train in a different whistle group from the couple tank creatures up front that you will be using to clear the way.
@@SongbirdGaming the practise is a great idea
Bravo! A truly fine performance all around and what fun you all had. Especially pleasant to listen to the author with such crisp calm narration; the world could learn from you luv. Excellent guidance and insider info for a solo initiate who is trying again (I save offsite before going in )
Definitely save. Good luck on the fight. I normally do guides for ark but was part of a let’s play series but I wanted to combine them for this video
Really nice vid, you had excellent pace and explained all the risks well, I haven't played ark for a few years but watching this made me want to come back =)
It's still fun if it's not official PVP
Im so thankful for all of the monarky's videos. You all have taught me so much about ark. Keep up the amazing work Crabby! ❤
Thanks for all the support Nhilus ❤️
@@Crabbytron of course! I try to catch all the live streams when I can. I'm glad I actually made it to your birthday stream. I hope you had a wonderful day!
I'm so happy to see this. It's like you read my mind. I'm still preparing but I'm planning to do the Overseer when I've got everything prepared for it so thank you for this!
That's awesome. You got this. It's intimidating but if you are prepared you got this!
@@Crabbytron it does look intimidating but I'm gonna do my best!
Great video Crabby! Love the take on the Tek Cave!!
Thanks Bey
Even in the teleport room you still incapable of use cryopods to drop out some dinos?
I mean i thought we would be able to run the lava cave with some stealth creatures like shadowmane and once we reach the teleport room we could drop out cryopods the rest of the Dino's, 😢
@@leonilsonbezerra4006 no you can’t. Apparently some of the comment below say on official Pve can can in certain spots but I’m not sure where.
Finished gamma overseer my very first time with a friend that lagged out after we cleared the cave, didnt hear from them after that, I even waited till the timer reached 1 min for them to get to the arena spot, I was so devastated I had to leave them because without him i dont think I would have made it on my own, my stress levels were extremely high, I kept going in disappointment realizing the timers seconds away, by some miracle the timer started going negative, i realized i was safe to keep going, I couldnt think right going in the boss fight leaving my friend that i had no idea what happen to him until way later. Managed to kill it, for some reason. That ascend didnt hit right, shoutout to my friend who didnt make it and thanks to this video we went in prepared ! Thank you !
Oh my ❤️ that matched felt really upsetting. Your friend definitely got arked
Great video! These tips are definitely helpful.
Thanks so much. Also learn from our mistakes too :D
Awesome guide, thanks Crabby!
Thanks songbird
so love your tips always very helpful. iam yet to do a boss fight but will keep these tips in mind and in my folders as a quick refinance. Thank you Crabby keep em up. :)
Thanks so much for your support Donna start getting on those bosses girl!
@@Crabbytron i would but yet to join a good group right now iam alone. lol just time hasnt been on my side as yet alot going on in rl life and health.:)
Thank you so much for this😭 I've been stressing bc I'm doing the test cave soon and this has helped alot tysm
You got this magmasaur wolf! Check the comments too extra tips there
@Crabbytron ty!^^ and I will ty:)
love what youve done with this crabby!
Thanks Darren!
Nice thanks for the tips Crabby I will keep it in mind for when I try the overseer
Good luck
@@Crabbytron ty Crabby and I agree 50 is way to many Dino’s to bring
I've only soloed successfully once on gamma, but my strategy was pretty basic.... had to use dinos from off map. Cloaked drake walked the whole way down to the door not fighting anything. Then, walked back up to the ledge fighting the purlovia, microraptors and a few sets of allo, theris and a few kapros. There's a lot, but most can be pulled to the lava by climbing the surrounding walls and shooting them. When the area is cleared throw out your army. I used 6 good shadows.
thank you! i play console official, and i started the island 5 days ago (after being on other maps) and i've done the 3 alpha bosses solo so far and am only 2 tributes shy of being able to try the tek cave - i'm scared lol. this was a good refresher as it was years ago i last tried this. I'm thinking of using shadowmanes as they can cloak and stroll through the cave + they're all i really have ready, but then i'd not have a yuti which concerns me. I'd not want to do this solo with rex's, they turn like a bus and guaranteed i'd lose a few en route. fingers crossed i can be off the island within a week of starting, my initial goal was two weeks but am well ahead of schedule.
Shadowmanes are a great choice.
If you stay cloaked the entire time you may not need to worry about the purlovia and micro raptors. I like a yuti to scare them though
Also the timer at the top of the screen is only for the tek cave portion. Once you have teleported up. The time does not matter. You can chill and set up everyone well past 0 on the clock.
Oh yeah I know that people still panic though
I’ve done tek cave a handful of times, always following the timer, didn’t know the timer was for the entrance part only
@@Danilodtm yes only for tek cave area
All good information Crabbytron, the information is super useful, and I must thank you for the information Crabbytron.
You on a bing watch today TYly love it
Thanks@@Crabbytron.
Pretty nice video 😊
My question is if I can use my brachiosaurus (from ark additions) somehow during the overseer fight? I understand crypodding is not really the way for it? Maybe soul trap balls could work once I reach the actual arena?
Sorry I won’t know I haven’t tested modded creatures my guess is you cannot deploy a soul terminal. Brachio would definitely be above the drag wait to teleport up on the terminal too
@@Crabbytron I assume it couldnt work cause i tried to bring it to the Megapithecus but it didnt teleport to the boss along with the other tams sadly. Its just frustrating that my favorite dino is useless against the bosses. I wonder if i could bring it if I use the Awesome Teleporter?
@@tiborckolozsi4845 no idea not sure if you can put one down in the arena
Well done, Crabby! Almost makes me want to do that fight again. 😉
Thanks Bonsai we have been though a lot together
Something to be aware of...the area around the teleporter has freezing water like the Strong ice cave. Be careful not to let your army fall in, very hard to retrieve them if they do.
Good tip
I have a couple questions. Is there a timer for the tek cave in singleplayer, there wasn't one in the other boss fights. Also, how many creatures can teleport from the pad at the end of the tek cave? Never done it legit and I need to know. 😊
It’s like most boss fights 20 creatures. Because you are single player and only able to do one teleport so you’ll need all your creatures on the pad ready to teleport. I’ve not done much so single player. But when I was shooting some B roll it still gave me the 5 mins door timer and 55 mins for rest of cave. Once you enter the overseer arena there is no time limit
Kia is so funny love her Conan series
She's my ark BFF. I will be releasing a video with her and I up to no good soon.
So is it worth bringing 50 dinos or just 20? The other 30 wont be used, considering you can just lead them into the lava.
Are you playing ASA or ASE new ASA dino pathfinding they don’t go into the lava as easily. You only have 5 mins to get through the door. This will be the biggest issue you get cave lag and getting 50 though the door seems crazy. You can teleport more than once if you have more than one person in ASE
I would bring a couple of spares if needed
Lol, as a boss fight runner, I just get all my customers in the fight naked (if I lose timer to transfer stuff) or with primitive flak, 100 med brews, food and water recipes. And at the end, transmitter bag with a giga to kill it :P Smalltribes Win10 op
P.D.: No one dies
What is a transmitter bag?
When I heard you say you can't deploy any cryo creatures in the cave: what's in there? Only what you take with you...- yoda
Yeah 😅 although according to comments there is a glitchy spot where you can but I’ve never been able to
tek cave doesn't have level requirements, not even alpha, you can do it at low level just need to get your hands on the trophy heads somehow. Of note as well is that at least on official pve servers dinos can actually be unpodded in the cave, this can be done untill the point where raasclark first pulled the second giga. This for instance allows you to bring a giga in which makes the cave section a lot easyer.
There is no real limit to how often you can teleport, on official it is quite common for fights to have 80+ people and dinos, and i have done at least 3 groups on unofficial servers. There is still a limit of 20 creatures/10 people per teleport however.
Another thing of note, the tek cave door itself is a death trap, dont get too close to it before it opens, standing up against it or running your dino into it will kill you and your tame, and you will most likely not be able to recover your stuff.
other then the mark about alpha needing lvl 100 great video! just wanted to add this info to help my fellow arkers :D
I played PVE and we could not uncryo a tame in there is it just official you can? Weird distinction on that. I’d hate to walk a giga through. So narrow 😅 but that’s really interest.
The level requirements are in the terminal so does at least one survivor need to be that level to open it?
@@Crabbytron yeah its a bit weird that in this one case official allows something other servers cant. Couldnt find anything in server settings to make it similar on unofficial. So yeah i gues only 1 person needs 100, i know i have had lvl 80 players on both official and unofficial alpha
Another thing, the trophies required are not consumed, unlike with other bosses. Meaning you can keep the trophies and do it another time without the need to collect them again
@@dubb0900 I remember that 😁 but we always forgot to go and get them 😂🤣😅
I play on official pve servers
So I really can bring dinos in cryopods to release it some way. And if yes where and when is the right time and place for it?
Does this lure into lava work in ASA?
I have heard mixed things some yes some no
this was very helpfull but i would like if you could make a video about where to find this place
Oh it’s quite prominent it’s in the middle of the lava in the volcano that’s in the island.
OK THANK YOU
@@user-ry9fi4uk4q you have to have done all the other bosses to open it
AND DO YOU KNOW WHERE THE ONE ON RAGNOROK IS?
@@user-ry9fi4uk4q there is no tek cave on rag the only map that has it is the island. There is no ascension on rag
WOULD YOU HAPPEN TO KNOW WHERE THE TEC CAVE ON RAGNOROK IS ?
There is not one on ragnarock it's only on the island map
OH
@@Crabbytron OH THANK YOU FOR THE INFORMATION
My Dino keeps disappearing when I teleport😢what should I do?
When you go up what kind of creature is it? If it’s above the drag weight for a boss fight it might not go like a giga etc
@@Crabbytron it’s the carar
@@sushi6475 that might be why. It’s drag light be too high. Just like a regular boss fight you can’t take those up to the overseer. It’s probably back down in cave you can pod it up and take it with you but can’t unpod it again
@@Crabbytron then I will try a spino
@@sushi6475 spinos might get easily stuck on the pillars and aren’t very move able- good luck
Video so good it’s Community Crunch Worthy! Like and share People
Thank Darren !
Fyi you can use cryopods in the cave up until the last 10% of the cave
I have not been able to was this ASE or ASA
Use an imprinted carchar. It’ll clear the entire cave with trivial ease.
Just use a giga in front
@@desu9616 carchar is better for tek cave, it won’t even get low on hp because of the regen. Even a mediocre one can solo tek cave on alpha.
quetz and shotguns
Do you use whistle commands on the quetz?
@@Crabbytron yh just put bed on the back and gear on the quetz
or people spawn in with the stuff
@@shyguyy3107 I feel like I’d plummet into the lava 🤣 but that’s a cool idea thanks for sharing
What’s the secret to coolness?
I’m not sure 🤔 calien soup 🍲
Otter during tek cave
I rate this 0/10, there wasn't a section describing on when and how you train your army of Mesopithecus for the Overseer fight.
Apologies
@@Crabbytron Don't worry, I'm not mad, I'm just disappointed.
@@OmNommSnom ok mum 😩😂
@@Crabbytron Oh, that reminds me, make sure you're home before 8PM tonight.
Okay, I'm gonna stop waffling now, have a wonderful day lol.
Stop talking too much. For the video cut it out!
so you want a video with no talking?
Did they change this cave?
We used to walk 2-3 gigas down the path, destroy everything, ph dart the giga into lava and pod the gigas at the end and unpod the rexes for an easy fight.
This just looks painful
They disallows unpod ding
You can cryo a creature back up
I think there is a tiny ledge someone said maybe you unpod but I don’t know where it is
@@Crabbytron Its just above the last cliff. If you stand at the entrance and look back.
@@Crabbytron The ledge where the theri pack jumped down just before the door is where pods are activated and usable. There's a lava waterfall just above the area, and a tight steeply sloped hairpin turn below.
use bats, avoid everything and go straight to fighting the boss. shot gun away. Wildcard turned it into easy mode with the introduction of bats
Yeah bats are OP. Shadowmanes too as you can use them to fight overseer too. But if you are doing island only you’ll have to do it old fashioned way
Can you use the desmodus in official servers for this? And if you in the desmodus once you reach the teleport room you can use cryopods to drop out some dinos official servers?
@@leonilsonbezerra4006 you can’t unpod anything in the teleport room. You could tek jet pack and shotgun. if you stealth through or bring a whole shadowmane army in stealth which you can do if they are close to the alpha female
@@Crabbytron thank you so much for everything
Amazing video
Congratulations to all TH-camrs involved in that run, 😊
@@leonilsonbezerra4006 thanks leinilson it was a lot of fun for sure.
