This is definitely probably a good tip if you’re desperate on PVP and don’t have any other options but I’m any other situation. in the amount of time you harvested that one stack of metal, I could’ve gotten five stacks of metal on my Anky by any of the mountains so this is definitely proof that the dunkey needs a metal harvesting buff because it’s supposed to be the anky of the ocean I guess but that gather rate is absurdly slow I can get nearly 100 metal per whack on a metal rock with mine.
I started playing ark a few months before the launch of Extinction and I have never tamed a Dunkleosteus. I'll consider it when ASA releases on Console since it'll probably be a while until Scorched releases, so we'll have to spend a lot of time on the island.
@xsdcx_tv9260 striders don't exist in ASA yet so that's out of the picture. The entire idea of using a dunke instead is for avoiding other players and taking advantage of the resource abundance deep underwater. Anky may get more, but it also can't get it as safely.
@@xsdcx_tv9260 I guess it's a kind of pick your poison situation. You want a lot of metal in heavily contested areas at risk of getting into player conflict? Use an anky. You want a little less metal in a player safe area but your at the risk of the entire ocean's fauna? Use a dunkle. I might use the dunkle just to change things up. I've always used anky's and only really used stryders a few times.
@@xsdcx_tv9260 if you have a half-decent Dunky, shark won't be able to do anything against you (well, except if you have as many on your tail as you would normally have in caves, but even then, still a lot safer than if you need to fight against players)
I have been using this strat for a while now. I found the best place to use him is right at the entrance of hard underwater cave. There are tons of those rounded rocks that tend to be 1/3 metal 2/3 stone. I scoop up an easy 20-30k in the chambers just before the cave spawns.
@@fruitybluieblue098i always get a moschops first the best beginner tame i always get lucky and find a berry mochops gives me a huge boost on a new server now with babie i got lunky with a lvl 145 and babies
the only problem with the dunky is the massive turning circle, and being stunned by jelly fish, thankfully there aren't that many in the ocean from what I've seen eels are nothing I mean you deal reduced damage but with the dunky they already have reduced incoming damage plus with a ridiculous saddle they take almost no damage except maybe from mate boosted alpha sharks with 9/10 sharks then the damage starts to roll in but then they still tank it like a pro

Gotta say when i played genesis 1 in ase I loved my dunky. Ocean biome living was one of things they got right about that dlc. Shame they didn't pre-include some Ocean platforms for Asa but I get that they were on a time crunch.
its not because of "time crunch", ocean plats werent in the game until gen1 and they likely wont be until new gen1 pretty sure they are still in the game files among all the other dlc stuff for modders to use
@viralshark Agreed. I know that they do intend to release the dlc maps in turn, but the way marketing pushed it for a while during the first announcements made it seem like they were going to have much more content remastered before release day. I am very happy they chose to spend more time for more qol features over just reskinning the game. Still going to love any modder who makes some version of the Ocean platforms available sooner.
Except me apparently. I always have been using the Dunki even way before ASA. Breed one especially with damage mutations and you get a ton. Oil, metal, stone. Although a underwater Anklo is way better. Aklo with Oxygen and Weight mutations
the question is, are there actual metal nodes under water? So HE CAN BE EVEN MORE BROKEN, I mean he is gattering metal quite good from normal rocks too
@@AndrewQuinlan-or9dd dont need coordinate its in the above area listed. Just navigate to end of the cave of cunning theres also some along the way along edges into the mesh . the cave of brute also has a few alongside immense loads of crystal
on official you say, you should try that! every bite takes twice as long if not more, official is so lagged out you really should be trying something first ;)
In Ark survival ascendant the most scary , difficult, annoying, stressful, overwhelming thing is the ocean. Every 500 meters you will encounter a Alpha Meg with 5 mate boosted megs and 4 mate boosted mantas it’s ridiculous how much alphas you can encounter every where I hate it
"Stupid amount of metal...." but the ratio to stone is 10:1 you could get that much metal in two or three nodes with a pickaxe and argy..... now you will have to park the dunke and get a tame to fly it back to base anyway. I wouldn't call this great.
Sorry but how do you start off saying, hey, people have been having some challenges with basic materials, and proceeds to tell viewers "just get some scuba gear, and tame a giant fish".... IN THE OCEAN thats literally filled with megas, jelly fish, and other things that all wanna kill you. C'mon man.
Just use a doed and anky....... This doesn't seem valid. "Let me just use my lvl 300+ dunky just to get stone and BARELY any metal" Insane new ability...... unsubbed thx
Go ahead and get lost. Cya His point was doing this underwater where it's a little safer from greifers...I don't even think he hit any metal nodes and got a few metal.
@@ivancastro6714its not pve oriented, his point was that farming with a dunkleo is safer (from players) Because we all know in pve terms the water is not safer than land
Seems like you missed the point... The point of this video is a safer alternative to harvesting metal on a PvP server. Not once did he say this was a "new ability" or better for harvesting stone/metal than a doed/anky. And I wouldn't call 900 metal in 5 minutes on vanilla settings "BARELY any metal" as you said...
I recommend that you should try the Anklo underwater. From old Ark I use Anklo whenever I don't feel like using Dunki because its slow lol. Boost Oxygen on Anklo and its so good. Still going to use my same strategy in ASA too, especially since the ASA mountains suck now, so bumpy😂😅
In this 5 mins i would have been attacked by like 50 sharks :D
50? Pretty I'd say
Lol the dunky can smoke sharks :)
@@TeachersGameToo some may even say Dunk on ;)
@spicychicken9009 really wish ocean bases were more meta. Love living in the ocean bubbles of the centre.
@bjlaughren have you not seen the water bases updates? They're about to be every large tribes main base

You can also use an anky up the rivers smashing the rocks. Does the same thing. And the anky moves at warp speed in shallow water.
The south bay have the most insane amount of Metal node and crystal underwater, the best spot to use dunkie on those.
On asa ? Where is this
Where ?
Doed + river rocks gives me over 10k stone in 5-10 minutes. Plus an anky and Rhynio can get me 12k raw metal in 30 minutes or so
whats the new ability? i dont think any of that is new

Teach it is so good to see your content again after you made so many of us experts, after all this years
Thank you!!!
stop lying bro
That’s honestly not a lot of metal.
correct lol
bad stone farmer and inconvenient
He needs a better dunky to start with and find some actual metal nodes. 1k+ dmg and hitting metal nodes I’ll fill up in no time.
I used dunklo up until the end in ark before asa was launched. I can name 10 dinos nobody uses but are ridiculously good especially starting off
Please tell
Moschops. The best beginner tame ever from old Ark to even now.

grinding real hard in creative mode

Great for those in the pearl caves!

Genesis is when I started using the dunk to farm meta/stonel. It's a great farming dino
Thanks for the helpful videos as always, teach

The only problem is in a pve context these are only good if you live on the water, the other problem is that not all maps even have an ocean
just move.
@@jaybartgis5148 Bro when aberration and scorched are out moving wont work lol.
How much weight and Melee do you have on that tame
Best part is the eels can't dismount you
This plus raft base = epic pvp start. Gives you easy access to pearls as well :)
Nah raft bases are even worse than they are in ase
@@gigga7334 how so?
Raft raiding is to easy
Yea buddy if you want to survive don’t use a raft they just don’t cut it on asa like they did on ase
Try to get 1 below 1 00 they take alit to knock out if your lucky with a tueso you can hav3 the tueso grabb while you tranq it
Another great one!! Just gotta get my water settings better on PC.
The beat to the Outro is very nice
Hey teach, you don't happen to know the coordinates on ascended for the underwater loop drops do you?
Oh CRAP! It is going to be a while before I have scuba gear.
the question is, are there actual metal nodes under water? So HE CAN BE EVEN MORE BROKEN, I mean he is gattering metal quite good from normal rocks too
Yes in bottom of the cave with cunning artifact in area where theres surface land. Below at bottom are 22 large metal nodes and dense coral

What about the oil in the ocean, I have the feeling there uis less than before
wow that so cool, just got a level 61 from Raptor Claus with 485 damage 😁
What key are you pressing to turn the dino names into a Footprint.
on official you say, you should try that! every bite takes twice as long if not more, official is so lagged out you really should be trying something first ;)
Works while there are no dinos anywhere. Lol
I miss the days of maxing out a weight dunkie and trying to figure out how to get it back to base. Looks like those days are back.
Hmm i think you forgot all the bad memory with that

Off topic but how did you make it so the names of the items show on the icons in your inventory?
Press Q or G its one of those
Obsidian underwater on the Island?
Can also slot cap silica pearls as well with angler fish
Dunkleos did it before :) I had nice ocean base underwater :) oil is new I guess 🤔
What level does the saddle unlock?
do you get ocean babbies?
Great tip
Loved living on boat on rag a farming with the dunky
where are the underwater metal spawns? you can farm a whole mountain in 10 mins with an argy
On a packed official server? Where is this server where no one else is camping metal nodes?
Ive always used dunkleo to farm on ase fjord
The thumbnail is a certified "smash" moment
Do you happen to make mods
if the dunkle can destroy metal and obsidian with its teeth, it should be able do grind equipment for us.
Anyone knows a good Location with underwater Metal spawns in Island didnt find one😢
Dunky for the win! Can someone please tell me how o dye stuff on ASA? Thank you!
2min of farming he has almost a stack of metal. This is an insane amount of metal! 😅
Facts. Pick axe more than that
You should have shown the difference between a tamed one and an imprinted mate boosted one.
Udont need mate boost all collection dinos cap at 500% melee any imprint bred will be this unless u tame worst imaginable stat parents
@@empressjessica5020 doesn’t matter. Whole tribe quit and went back to ase. Asa is trash
Argy and a drill would be better and faster?
No drills on island
Find the obsidian nodes you will get metal and obsidian
I've been using these for years now
Where are all the Silica Pearls at?
I'm sorry but the Dunk doesn't compare to an Anky or a Dode. Best in the river, carried by a Argy/bug or best still with another player.
Dunklo.. ya we used to farm on crystal with it, element nodes = slot cap metal.
It was crazy I remember
i only wish there was a way to get wood thatch n fibet underwater
The plants are heavy fiber. Like broken early game.
Where do these spawn? ;0
I ain’t never even tamed one of these lol
Where is the easiest place to get a Dunk as we are entering the metal tier?
There's no easy place to get a Dunki, never was. They're found mid deep underwater and very deep underwater.
Tame a Megalodon to get one. Although if you get a plesasurus then even better. I hope this helps. The ocean is terrifying in general😅
Ankylo does the same if you know where to go 😉
Is that melee realistic tho
Easily when bred and printed
They introduced nodules
Yeah used to farm with dunkelo in ASA when I had no friends in an only island server
Are you from the future?
@@derfskittlers6125yup he is. He’s now playing Ark Survival Descending.

This has always been a thing with the dunk
My brother in chirst just tame an ankylo and have a argy with high weight
Anky would have u a slot cap of metal in 20 minutes
WATCH OUT FOR GIANT SQUIDS TEACH!
LOL. 7k hours and didn't know this was a thing.
Don’t worry 7k hours is like 100 hours for the average ark player lmao.
Ya did he jus say take a dunk into the sea caves 😮😂😂😂 uhh nahh I'll pass
500% melee damage LOL
