So I must apologize for missing the best passive for the ANDREWSARCHUS saddle which is being IMMUNE to radiation and me being me recorded it all and voice it over and everything but somehow completely forgot to add it to the video! Huge apologies, I wish I had noticed it when I proofed watched the video!

If you make a part 2, it might be worth mentioning that riding a stego or a spino protects you from land dismounters! (Not sure about aquatic) Including purlovia, thylas, and even microraptors. It makes stegos in particular a really valuable early exploration tame since they are tanky, decent harvesters, and have that ability. I always try to get a stego and an iguanodon for big travel expeditions early on, considering how much ground the iguano covers without stam depletion as well. Equus are also great in general for taming since you rarely need tranqs with how much torpor their kicks do. (And it's always hilarious seeing things run from a horse.)
@@littlekitsune1 Thanks! Yeah I did have more ideas but rounded it out at 25 in the end (sounds better in the title) :D. I'm actually loving the Equus right now, it's needed to knockout a specific tame on this mod map i'm playing, they're so much fun just kicking everything knocking them out easily🤣
@@littlekitsune1that’s hilarious imagine “exploring” while you are on a stego haha sorry man way too slow never happening
@@tonykeally1039 Either pump levels into movement speed or use a Spino instead. I like Stegos early game because they're pego-proof, and microraptor-proof while having good bulk, good carry weight, and good attack range and knockback. To each their own, I guess!
@@tonykeally1039 lol yeah super slow, don't think i've ever wanted to go anywhere with my Stego except the front garden lol.
Everyone forgets the best 1st tame...... the Pego 😆 Just tame it and set it on wander. It will then gather you items like bolas, boomerangs, bullets and simple pistols. Really good for the beach bob to get early access to that stuff
🤣
@@BEYPlaysGames Dont knock it till you try it 😆
Does this actually work?
@@OjdOliveit only works for multiplayer i think
Yeh..Good luck finding something on wander
One more tip about the sinomacrops: they don't just have a 75% weight reduction, they're also the only shoulder pet you can access their inventory while wearing them, just like how you access a mount while riding. That makes them even more useful as a backpack.
Dire Bears are by far one of my favorite tames. They hit in the same damage category as a Rex, can attack while moving at full speed, swim decently well, provide an insulation bonus when you're near them, and can gather so many basic resources well. It's my go to for getting around the non-radiation areas on Aberration, as they're pretty easy to find and not hard to build a trap for(also honey isn't too bad to get in the green zone of Aberration)
Yeah I love them! Very strong and versatile! 😁
Their insulation buff can also make the difference in the icecave on the island as otters can be difficult to find on the island.
Trick is how to get one early, though. Their HP/Torpor ratio is tragic, so have to use narcotic traps. Finally.
@@HallyVee Bears aren't so hard to tame with arrows, just space your shots at 10 second intervals improves chances of not killing it.
If your daeodon is hungry and you need to wait for it to eat all its food, put tons of food in its inventory and go out of render and back in. It should eat all of the meat instantly
Thanks
This is a GREAT video!! I SO wish I had something like this when I started. I thought they had nerfed the otter when it came to carrying 2 artifacts so I stopped bringing mine in, but it's nice to hear that it still works!
Thank you so much! Oh yeah, The Otter is so so good! :D
Damn…. That was overwhelming! Just tamed my first pet & wasn’t aware of all this. Definitely will rewatch and revisit countless times! Ty
That's awesome! Thank you! And no problem! :)
Here's a good way to think of it. That's only mildly spoilery. Anything technology can do, dinosaurs can do. They are parallel progression paths.
My favorite autofarms:
-Tame at least one mating pair of kairuku, hesperornis, or mantis (preferably all or at least multiple females) leave them on stationary breeding with a dimetrodon and caged or rocked oviraptor nearby, and get a few hyaenodons with meat packs on aggressive (obviously this works better in a confined area). As soon as babies are born and left unclaimed, the yeens will kill and harvest them automatically. And since the meat packs act as a portable fridge, spoil times on the prime meat and organic polymer should be lower, giving you more time to pick them up for use.
-Similarly, I like to make a "Colosseum" for leveling up. Get a breeding pair of whatever gives good exp, obviously gigas are gonna be your big money if possible, set them on stationary breeding with the same setup of an oviraptor and dimetrodon, and with a lystro for good measure. Then stick the creature you want to level in there on aggressive so it starts auto-killing babies. Automated exp farm! This is really nice for underleveled creatures or for boss prep, without taking up your full time or having to go fight death worms or anything risky. If you want a "baby monitor" you can even stick a parasaur in there on alert mode and it'll go off whenever an unclaimed baby is there.
Note that for both to work smoothly you may have to change your PvE settings in the advanced tab. Certain settings won't let your creatures ping babies as hostiles.
Yes, I have the same pair.
and for xp, yes carchar, giga, Spino yuty are tremendous xp grabs.
Great tips!
Meat Packs don't work for poly do they? I'd heard snails were the only storage that worked.
I like that you go straight to the point. Alot of the super large ark creators ramble for super long
Great video man! I've got just over 5k hours in the game and I still learned a couple of things with the newer dinos! 😆
Thank you! Oh nice! Glad it was still helpful! :D
Thoroughly enjoyed the video! Nice to see some love for the passive creatures!
I love videos like this! Super helpful and really showcases how good creatures are!!
Love the videos dude! I'll always click the videos right away! They've been of such high quality the last 6/7 months! You deserve so many more subs!
Thanks for the kind comment mate! Appreciate you!
Great video! I thought andrewsarchus were useless, i was told their only function is hopping into turrets
Thank you! they're great, so easy to tame aswell!
They also don't let you take radiation damage for instance when trying to get a rock drake egg on fjordur
Soooo not useless??
How could you think their useless?, Like what
@@Chans0t one of my tribemates would always have one but it was always just there, no one would use it
Love the video! Always look forward to your uploads mate!
Also with maewings, if you leave the babies in its pouches on follow, if the imprint they need is a walk one, it’ll auto do it as they can’t leave the pouch but it still counts as them moving, helpful if your just gonna sit and watch babies grow.
On the Andrewsarchus theres another ability that in my opinion is the best one, the saddle gives immunity to Radiation, very helpful when your getting some Rock Drakes on Fjordur or even Abberation.
Damn, i'm not the best at proof watching my videos, I even recorded me going into the radiation zone on Fjordur and showcasing it and completely forgot to edit it into the video!! I remember finishing the poison tip and be like 'aaaaah finally finished the video' oh well! But yep, the radiation immunity is probably the best one out of it's saddle passives! Maybe I need to proof watching my video more than once to notice something I've missed out haha!
@BEYPlaysGames lol its suprising how easily they made it to get Rock Drake eggs too, since Andrew's are right outside the Drakes Cave so you could just tame one and go in there real quick and have a rock drake in less then a couple of minutes
@@LilTerror210 Ridiculously easy!! And the Andrewsarchus are so easy to tame too. I wish I wasn't so forgetful! 😁
Loving your recent 25 tips videos man! Top tier content!
Thanks mate!
Chaaaaaarrrrr!!!!! So proud of you!! Miss you at work but you are charring it!!!! All the best to you.x

Dude! I love your channel! You are my favorite ark youtuber! But one thing ive always wanted to know, what mic do you use, it sounds amazing!
Thanks mate! That means a lot!! I use the Elgato Wave: 3, Really good mic for the price! Thanks again!

😊haha thank you!
Great vid mate!
Great video mate!!
Great video I came back to ark after 6 months and getting that strange urge every ark player gets to play ark again and I don’t remember everything about the game
Thanks! Glad it was helpful! :)
Yutyrannus: where am I? Great video though!
Thank you!😃 I decided not to put the Yutyrannus in as it's roar abilities are used in aggressive scenarios for the most part, I know it can be used it turret mode but that is the only reason why I didn't add it!😁
@@BEYPlaysGames ohh ok
Great video bro!
Spectacular vid mate!
Thanks! :D
For charge light pets, there's a problem, the Seekers, they will hunt you down if you have a charge light pet, so if you're not using the charge light pets, TURN THEM OFF and be careful for seekers if you are using them
Omg, I had no idea that the otter can hatch eggs, this video is very good !!!! You deserve to grow a lot, good job
Thank you!! Appreciate it! Glad the video was helpful!
You deserve more subs bro! Great videos!
Thanks mate!! :)
Man! Thants amazing 🤩 keep going !!

Fantastic video mate!!
Thanks!
Great video! Learnt something new! :)
Awesome! Thank you!
I actually knew all of these facts because I read the wiki. A lot. Great video anyways!
Thanks mate! :)
Awesome vid mate!
Thanks mate!
Most helpful Ark TH-camr
Thank you! :D
Might have to get back to this one day. Or maybe try Survival Ascended when it's not so riddled with bugs. I know it's not ideal, but I prefer to build my Dung Beetles and Achatinas their own enclosures where they have room to move. Though I may have to reconsider if I use that trick with the Gachas.
I had no bugs and I played it for 2weeks only shading and light is really no good on ps5
Great guides Bey!
Thanks mate!
I recently tamed an otter and I love that lil guy. He was kind of a douche to tame (kept running/swimming off in a dangerous river area), but definitely worth it. Haven't had a temperature issue since, and his backpack feature is fire. Was able to tame a really nice bary with the fish meat he carried, thus making a huge step up from the sarcos I had been using. I do have a couple spinos tamed, but don't have access to their saddles yet. Looking forward to that.
That's awesome! Honestly the Otter is by far one of the best creatures in the game! Especially for solo players, it's so nice to come away with more than one of the same artifact from cave runs :D
@@BEYPlaysGames Yeah, I play solo since I don't like the idea of people raiding my shit every time I turn around. 😆 Tried multi, but it was... well, a war zone, literally, and I couldn't progress at all lol I'm not a raider type myself anyway, so this works out for me.
Btw, with regard to cave runs, what mounts would you recommend? I haven't bothered doing it yet for this time around after my other game was somehow wiped. 😅
love yourr videos ark for life 💯💯💯
Thanks mate!
Love the videos Bey!!
Thanks mate!
Honestly there is no other game with such creature variety and depth. Love ark
Agreed!
The amdrewsarchus is also immune to radiation and protects the rider from it if it has a saddle! so great for stealing rock drake eggs due to their very good health and decent melee
Yep, I recorded the clips, voiceover to showcase it and everything and forgot to even put it into my video, you can see on the last clip in the video where my character is waving stood next to my Andrewsarchus I am actually outside the Rock Drake Nest cave on Fjordur, last clips I recorded of my video and still forgot to put it in when editing 🤣🤣😂
I love games where different creatures have neat passives 🥰
Very helpful!
😁
Great vid mate, would love to see you do more videos like the last 2 you've uploaded! They've been a big hit for me!! It seems like others share my opinion! :D
Thanks mate!! Glad you've enjoyed them!
Awesome video!!
Thanks!
Great video!!
Thanks!
The Tropeognathus is one of my go to tames once you give it a saddle. Not only is the saddle the only non tek weapon saddle, it uses grenades as weapons. Rarer versions of the saddle increase the grenades damage. It also uses gasoline as fuel to activate a jet engine on the back. It uses thermals to pick up speed as well as dive bombing like the gryphon. Also with the engine running it can do arial combat maneuvers, like 180 over and upward turns and can strafe fly like a tapi.
I know when i used to PVP i would love using one to dive bomb and grenade bases only to have people chase me and me leave them in the dust. They take forever to tame however
Great video!😁
Thanks! 😁
Excellent info here, I usually stay on the island so there are still things I don't know about the dinos that are not on the island. Thanks for the education!
Awesome! Glad it was helpful! No problem!!
@@BEYPlaysGames I did just run into the new thing in the swamp. I ran away lol
The Rhyniognatha? Haha@@chaoseclipse0305
@@BEYPlaysGames yea i need to research it... i dont know what theyre capable of and i havevt played in awhile... i was on my argent and had an otter. Didnt want to risk them
Yeah I wouldn't, very dangerous haha! I've actually got a video releasing later today with as much info about them that I could cram into it XD@@chaoseclipse0305
Thanks!!
No problem!
cool video for beginners and for returning players
Thanks! 😁
Amazing video!
Thanks!
dude your channel is so underrated
Thank you!!
Such a good video!!
Thank you!!
Oh my. I did not know that about sinos
Just came back to ark after a few years , the unicorn also boosts dino xp like the lystro.
Amazing vid!
Favouriting all of them! 😁
i thought i knew everything. Very useful video
Thank you! Glad it was helpful! :)
Has anyone ever tried breeding beelzebufo? They have an extremely unique egg as well as breeding method
Edit: the magmasaur can make a stack of 300 unrefined metal weigh 75 which is half of what an anky does
I have, it's pretty cool! I must admit i've only bred frogs once! Don't really use them a lot tbh! I think they do have eggs that look like the Bloodstalker and Arthropluera etc. The Magmasaur is the better creature for metal gathering I find, seems to gather more from rocks however the Anky is pretty much available on every map so they are more accessible to new players! And still has slightly better weight reduction for metal than the Magmasaur , 300 stack weights 45 assuming that is what you meant? 😁I still tend to use them more than the Magmasaur, unless there's a metal spawn right next to my base or I can leave them nearby!
We used to breed the frogs in PvP got quite far with them they were pretty fun to use, but we got insided so all gone now
Magmasaur has a high gathering ability for metal then the anky, but less than the anky when it comes to crystal, obsidian, etc. However, the magmasaur melee gathering ability tops out much sooner than the anky, which does not top out to over 800 melee points. No other gathering creature has an ability higher then 500 and most cap closer to 300. So you will not see the Anky's full ability till you get it's melee that high. At more common value's they will gather metal and stone slower than the magmasaur due to this. Also they gather stone slower than the doed at all times. Not only is the Doed better for stone, but it's able to collect venom on Fjord as well at a rate far faster than hunting nameless.
Things you missed.
Trope acts as a jet powered flier AND a grinder if a saddle is equipped.
Beaver and Argy both act as a smithy if a saddle is equipped. Combined with a Beaver's wood gathering ability this makes them the PERFECT first tame for building your wood starter base.
Diplocaulus holds air and can be used not only to swim faster but as a portable scuba tank.
There's more, but I don't want to spoil the surprises.🤫
@@loganskiwyse7823 Yeah tbh it's the main reason I probably still use the Anky more than the Magmasaur, I like it's ability to gather a wide variety of resources. I kinda just wanted to round the video out at 25, Ofcourse I did think of all those that you listed before recording this but honestly was aiming for some of the most useful creatures/abilities for the list, I just uploaded a video showcasing how good of a smithy the Argy is so steered away from it in this video 😁
@@BEYPlaysGames I'm sure you did, us old hands know if you are the tricks in the game. The one that I wanted to mention and forgot was the equus or horse. It's when saddled, axes a chemistry. With their decent weight capacity and mobility this makes him a very good on the move training help as you can make narcotics on the fly
Great video. Maewings can also fly in caves fyi!
Thank you! :) Yeah they don't count as flyers though :D
that is a fire thumbnail🔥
Thank you! :D
Since when did oviraptors speed up mating time this is gonna help me so much.
Andrewsarchus can also protect you from radiation, so on fjordur in Asgard you can steal Rock Drake's egg without taking any radiation damage.
Yep, I recorded the clips, voiceover to showcase it and everything and forgot to even put it into my video, you can see on the last clip in the video where my character is waving stood next to my Andrewsarchus I am actually outside the Rock Drake Nest cave on Fjordur, last clips I recorded of my video and still forgot to put it in when editing 🤣🤣😂
Nah bro dont worry, video is helpfull and godly edited, its just a small mistake
@@domagojmestrovic9234 Thanks mate! 😁
Andrewsarchus is my #1 favorite creature, you’re basically driving an amphibious Tank than can outrun fliers.
Dung beetle also holds owl pellets forever I have em set to toss out to my gachas
long time no seen from me hehe nice video im thinking returning to ark :-) 🤣had a few month break to play Warframe if you know that video game
Hello mate! It has been a while! I have heard of it, never played it though! Hope you've enjoyed your break! :D
I had NO IDEA the argy had weight reduction on anything. That makes my crystal runs twice as efficient!
They're magical leopluradonsss they're gonna show us the wayyy
The best ARK TH-camr! 😁
Thanks! :D
Very good video! I usually forget about half these creatures and what they can do lol, added to favorites!!
Awesome! Thank you!
👌👌Great vids!
Thanks!
I guess it's not really a "Beginner friendly" creature, but I feel like the Yutyrannus should be an honorable mention as a support beast. Having a roar that boosts allied dinosaur damage and lowers incoming damage is really good if you're taking on a major threat. During those times where you're overwhelmed by smaller creatures or pack animals the fear roar is a great "save my butt" button. Though if you had to pick just 25 I can see why you left it off.
I did contemplate it but it's not really a passive ability as it is used in war or boss fights for the most part haha, these were to mainly focus on completely passive abilities :D
Ah, I see now. Sorry I missed that part.@@BEYPlaysGames
what map should i play on for solo play? i just started playing a week ago
I'd say The Island is great for beginners but if you're up for a challenge and would like access to more varieties of creatures to tame then Fjordur is the best in my opinion!
The otter also attacks bugs, including bees, that attack you
nice video btw can I use maewing milk as a substitute for wyvern milk
Thank you! And umm Maewing milk? haha
@@BEYPlaysGames like when you enable the nursing mode
@@dandy_daniel Haha sadly not! 😁
@@BEYPlaysGames thanks for the info
Trex do fit In maes think gigas are the only ones that don't witch Is kinda confusing since meas can also hold brontos
Yeah they do but I don't think they fit in the Procoptodon!
Life saver
nice video
Thanks! :)
Every time I see a liopleurodon, it shows me the way 😆
