Oncorhynchus

* In Ark: Survival Evolved
* In Real Life

*Fairly unremarkable by the Island's standards, Oncorhynchus Grexlamia is a generally passive fish. Far smaller than a human, its main form of protection is swimming in a large school. Oncorhynchus does not like conflict, and generally swims away from anything larger than it at very high speeds.*
*Once provoked, however, Oncorhynchus becomes very aggressive, along with its nearby brethren. It locks onto the aggressor with its long "saberteeth" and begins draining that creature's blood. This loss of blood is not too dangerous alone, but when a school of Oncorhyncus attack all at once, their would-be aggressor quickly loses speed and stamina from bloodloss, drowning if it cannot breath underwater.*
*Domesticated*
*Like many of the smaller fish found on or around the Island, Oncorhynchus cannot be tamed, but it is often herded and raised for its resources. In particular, certain cuts of Oncorhynchus meat are considered superb quality, and are often referred to as "Prime Fish" used for specific high-end concoctions.*

The **Oncorhynchus** or **Sabertooth Samon** is a small carnivorous fish found in the oceans of the Ark.

## Appearance

The Sabertooth Salmon is a common fish species in the rivers of the ARK, and thus, a popular prey item for many water-dwelling species on the island. It resembles a modern-day salmon in all aspects save for large fangs protruding from its mouth that give the creature its name.

## Behavior

Sabertooth salmon lazily swim about in schools until a player enters the water, which, at that point, they begin to swim away from the player in all directions. However, if one salmon is attacked and still alive, it and its companions will all rush in to attack the player in a vicious frenzy of tooth and fin until they or the player are killed.

## Trivia

* The dossier was revealed on February 1, 2016
* Like Coelacanths, they can appear in different sizes.

### Trivia not relevant for the game

* Beyond their fangs, adults of Sabertooth salmon had larger gill rakers compared to their smaller, modern relatives, leading scientists to suggest that the adults ate plankton.
Metal Pick

The **Metal Pick** is much more durable than the Stone Pick. It is under debate whether it mines material faster than the stone version. Players with high melee damage are reporting faster mining with stone tools as the metal ones destroy the resource node faster lowering the resource yield per rock.

The Metal Pick will obtain Metal from metal rocks as well as having a chance to get metal from normal rocks. Metal rocks either have yellow veins through them or are a shiny black color. The black rocks also contain Obsidian. The white crystals contain Crystal.

Rarely, a Metal Pick can drop as loot from a large dinosaur such as a T-Rex. Be sure to check the inventory of dead dinosaurs before harvesting them, as harvesting will cause the inventory to be lost.
Tarchia

**Tarchia** (meaning "brainy one") is a genus of ankylosaurid dinosaur from the late Cretaceous of Mongolia.

In 1977, Teresa Maryańska named and described the type species Tarchia kielanae. The generic name is derived from Mongolian tarkhi, "brain" and Latin ~ia, in reference to a brain size presumed larger than that of the related form Saichania. The specific name honours Professor Zofia Kielan-Jaworowska, the leader of the expedition.

## In ARK: Survival Evolved

Tarchia itself doesn't appear in Ark: Survival Evolved, however in the Ankylosaurus dino dossier of a skull of the animal shown in the dossier is not of Ankylosaurus but Tarchia. The Ankylosaurus' in-game model, however, resembles Euoplocephalus rather then it's real counterpart.

Tek ATV

File:Placeholder
The **Tek ATV** is a rare obtainable vehicle that can only be created through crafting.

## Overview

The Tek ATV (All Terrain Vehicle) is a mobile vehicle that can be crafted after unlocking the required engram at the Tekgram category. It requires 150 Black Pearls, 500 electronics, 200 Stable Element, 4000 Metal Ingots, and 500 Polymer.

## Glitches

If using the Tek ATV in Extinction the ATV is prone to not driving within the city as it will begin to drift along the ground and can't be driven unless it is moved outside the city.

## Notes

The Tek ATV's wheels oddly don't rotate when moving, possibly due to it not being a well known and used item in the game.
Rare Mushroom

The **Rare Mushroom** is an ingredient that can be used in several Recipes produced in the Cooking Pot or Industrial Cooker, including Shadow Steak Saute and Mindwipe Tonic, and in the production of Re-Fertilizer. The Rare Mushroom is harvested from mining Crystal and trees in the swamps with any berry gatherer herbivore, preferably the Ankylosaurus.
Sparkpowder

**Sparkpowder** is a resource required to make a variety of items and an also be used as a fuel source in several structures. 1 Sparkpowder is combined with 1 Charcoal in the Mortar and Pestle to produce Gunpowder. 2 Sparkpowder is combined with 5 Stimberries in the Mortar and Pestle to produce Stimulant.

## Burn Times

* Campfire, Cooking Pot, Refining Forge, or Stone Fireplace: 1 minute
* Standing Torch or Wall Torch: 13 minutes 20 seconds
* Preserving Bin: 30 minutes
Spray Painter

The **Spray Painter** is a decoration tool that allows for the painting of structures with dyes.

The Spray Painter can be used to color your placed buildings by applying the dye to the Spray Painter, then equipping it and using it on the desired buildings. Some parts have multiple dyeable areas, making it possible to have different colors on the same building piece.

Once a dye is applied, it is good for a limited amount of uses before the Spray Painter no longer has any paint on it, requiring another dye to be used.
Raw Fish Meat

**Raw Fish Meat** is a consumable used for food and can be cooked in the Campfire or Industrial Grill to produce Cooked Fish Meat. Raw Fish Meat is gathered from killed fish by punching them, using the Stone or Metal Pick, the Stone or Metal Hatchet, or carnivores. The most effective way being the Pick or most carnivores beside the Sabertooth. Some have the chance to harvest Raw Prime Fish Meat.

## Stats gained when eaten

* Hunger: +5
* Health: -1.5
Sanctuary City

**Sanctuary City** is a large city located in the Extinction map in *ARK: Survival Evolved*.

## Overview

Sanctuary City is the remains of an old long abandoned city that has suffered damage and overgrowth. The purpose of this city is either for observation of the wildlife or a safe heaven for people to live. It is this area where you with find Enforcers and Guardian Drones. This area is a plentiful source for electronics and element dust.

## Layout

Much of the city consisted of ruined skyscrapers, streets, and large walkways that travel through the city. The city center is mainly that of a large park with a large observation dome. Most of the outer parts of the city are protected by a few barriers.

## Camping

The best areas to set up camp in the city is placing it on the raised platforms. This is best due to little to no animals spawning there.
Metal Irrigation Pipe - Tap

The **Metal Irrigation Pipe - Tap** or **Metal Water Tap** is a structure that allows for the utilization of the running of water from a pipeline for refilling water containers or the irrigation of crop plots. Any pipe can be placed onto this one except another tap as only one is needed per a section of pipeline.
Western Plains

The **Western Plains** is a plains and plateau area in the northwest area of the The Island.

## Surroundings

The Western Plains is in the west most area of the map. A river and waterfall separate the Western Plains from the Western Approach. Just North of the Western Plains lies Whitesky Peak and the blue Obelisk.

## Description

The central feature of the Western Plains is a high, cold plateau directly South of Whitesky Peak, previously known as The Radiant. This Cold Plateau, while appearing to be a temperate zone, is actually within the freezing boundaries of the otherwise snowy cold zone surrounding the Whitesky Peak. There is a mostly temperate sliver of land at the South end of the plateau, just above the dense forest to the South. The Cold Plateau slopes down to the North and East to a river that separates the Western Plains from Whitesky Peak and the Volcano, respectively. The Eastern slope is heavily forested to the South, and transitions to a cold Tundra to the North. If you travel directly towards the Volcano from the Cold Plateau, you'll come down to the river, which is heavily populated by predators such as Spinos, Rexes and Raptors, and high-tier herbivores such as Ankylo, Stego, and Doedicurus. There is an island in the river here, and the river drops down a waterfall to the South. Despite the presence of many large predators, this is one of the best land approaches to the Volcano and the path leading to the Crater.

## Trivia

* While being called "plains", in fact Western Plains are filled with rolling hills and contain plenty of rocky terrain and towards south - a large forest
* Much like other areas further in the north, it's not advised for a new players to visit Western Plains
Procoptodon

*The first marsupial I've encountered on the island is the Procoptodon Vivencurrus. Standing nearly three meters tall, it is also the largest jumping creature I've ever heard of. It is a fairly peaceful herbivore that only fiercely attacks if aggressed upon.*
*One of Procoptodon's most unique features is its pouch. Unlike, many pouched marsupials, Procoptodon's pouch is relatively dry, and has little in the way of sticky or oily fluids. I assume this is good for the joey, but I have not figured out exactly why yet...*
*Domesticated*
*Procoptodon's dry pouch make it an excellent beast of burden that can carry far more than other creatures of its size. But more importantly, many tribes use it as a two-seater transport by having a secondary rider nest in the pouch. Since this passenger doesn't have to worry about controlling the Procoptodon, the pouch-warrior can focus on firing his or her weapons.*

The **Procoptodon** is a medium sized herbivorous mammal found on the Ark.

## Trivia

* The dossier was revealed on October 5th, 2015
* The first marsupial in the game. It was released before the Thylacoleo.
* Although the dossier states that the Procoptodon is aggressive when provoked, it instead flees much like a Parasaurolophus. Keep that in mind when trying to tame this marsupial.

### Trivia not relevant for the game

* In game the Procoptodon can jump backwards, however kangaroos can't do this in real life due to their hips.
* The real-life Procoptodons were in fact so heavy they could not hop, but rather walked like hominids.
* In reality, only female kangaroos have a pouch.
Stone Hatchet

The **Stone Hatchet** is one of two primitive tools used to gather materials, the other being the Stone Pick. It can be used to get wood from trees, stone from rock, and hide off of dinosaurs. Easy to make, it requires some Flint, Thatch, and Wood.

## Gathering

* Trees: 1x~3x Wood or 1x~2x Thatch
* Rocks: 1x~2x Stone or 1x Flint
* Bodies: 1x~3x Hide, 1x~2x Raw Meat, or other body parts used in crafting such as Keratin and Chitin.
Tools

In ARK there are 3 primary tools; a hatchet, a pick and a torch. The first two are used on the same materials, but harvest different materials. The last can be used as a way to illuminate your surroundings, as well as keeping you warm. Later in the game you can unlock the metal variants of the hatchet and pick, enabling you to gather metal from certain rocks.

### Hatchet

The hatchet is primarily used for gathering wood from trees, stone from rocks and hide from creatures.

### Pick

The pick is primarily used for gathering thatch from trees, flint from rocks and meat from creatures.

Yutyrannus

* In Ark: Survival Evolved
* In Real Life

*The Yutyrannus saevus is believed to be related to the Tyrannosaurus Rex but it is noticeably different upon first glance. Feathered creatures are not necessarily viewed as dangerous predators in the same light as other theropods. However, the Yutyrannus strikes fear into even the most skilled hunters on the island.*
*There are few wild predators that are able to pack-hunt alongside the generally hostile Carnotaurus, like the Yutyrannus does, with such ease. It is also the only creature I’ve seen to consistently induce a state of panic with its roar. Upon hearing it, most creatures in the area will flee for safety.*
*Domesticated*
*A domesticated Yutyrannus can be a powerful offensive or defensive addition to war parties. With its mighty roar, it can induce fear in opposing creatures. Meanwhile, Yutyrannus can be trained to develop a confidence-boosting Battle-Cry which counteracts enemy attempts to induce fear, while also bolstering the resolve of allies. These unique “leadership” qualities make the Yutyrannus a versatile, and at times, a necessary creature to have on your side during large-scale confrontations.*

The **Yutyrannus** is a large carnivorous dinosaur found on the Ark.

## Trivia

* The dossier was revealed on April 10, 2017.
* The dossier notes that Yutyrannus is one of the few creatures that can hunt alongside Carnotaurus with ease. This might mean certain carnivores will prey on other carnivore species, eventually.

### Trivia not relevant for the game

* The real life Yutyrannus lived in what is now China about 120 million years ago, in the same time and place as Microraptor. It was also half of it's in-game length of 18 meters.
* It was a relative of Tyrannosaurus. It also is the largest dinosaur known to have feathers, at 30 feet long.
* Yutyrannus is the 3rd largest of the feathered dinosaurs (the 1st being the Therizinosaurus and the 2nd is the Megalosaurus).
* Yutyrannus saevus roughly translates into "Cruel Feathered Tyrant."
Metal Irrigation Pipe - Intake

The **Metal Irrigation Pipe - Intake** or **Metal Water Intake Pipe** is a structure that allows for the running of water through pipes from a source such as a large body of water. An Intake is not required to run water from a Metal Water Reservoir. Any pipe can be placed onto this one except another intake as only one is needed per pipeline.
ARK Park

**ARK Park** is an virtual reality spin-off on ARK: Survival Evolved. Set to be released for HTC Vive, Oculus Rift and PlayStation VR, somewhere in the year 2017.

Roll Rat

*Bearing a strong resemblance to its relative, the Naked Mole Rat, Heterocephalus Magnus is a gentle giant that digs for plants and fungi with its imposing front teeth. While foraging, it often uncovers precious resources inadvertently, but survivors should claim them with caution, as this triggers an aggressive response.*
*When threatened, Heterocephalus rolls up into a ball to shield itself with the armored plates on its back, much like an armadillo. It then rolls around like an oversized bowling ball, smashing through rocks, walls, and hopefully its aggressor.*
*Domesticated*
*While hardly a ferocious war beast, Heterocephalus is an effective transport that can carry up to three passengers. In theory, it could also be siege weapon, as its rolling attack can dent even metal. Fortunately, most survivors use a special saddle that deploys a protective canopy when it starts spinning, which not only keeps them from getting squished, but provides extra protection to the rider and mount alike.*

## Behavior

The Roll Rat is a burrower and will generally ignore humans and other creatures unless provoked, or one of it's 'treasures' is stolen and it is aware of the thief.
Pachycephalosaurus

* In Ark: Survival Evolved
* In Real Life

*Pachycephalosaurus is a bit of a conundrum. It is a very passive (even friendly) herbivore, common to much of the island. At the same time, it is one of the most dangerous herbivores that I have yet encountered on the island. Its charging headbutt is a display of sheer physical power, and can kill much more quickly than you might think.*
*While Pachycephalosaurus is generally amiable, it has a short temper. Its fight-or-flight response always seems to choose "fight"!*
*The Pachy becomes extremely aggressive once attacked.*
*Additionally, it is an incredibly fast sprinter, so escaping from an enraged Pachy is very difficult.*
*Domesticated*
*Pachycephalosaurus is an excellent battle-mount for those who want to ride a smaller, nimble combatant into the fray. Because of its particular musculature, it cannot effectively carry large quantities of resources. It can, however, move with brief magnificent bursts of speed, and its headbutt is simply devastating.*

The **Pachycephalosaurus** or **Pachy** is a medium sized herbivorous dinosaur found on the Ark. The Pachycephalosaurus, meaning "thick headed lizard," is known for having a large, bony dome atop its skull, which it can use to ram attackers.

## Domestication

Although being a herbivore, the Pachycephalosaurus becomes very aggressive once attacked and will try to kill the attacker. Escaping an angry Pachy is difficult, due to their high movement speed and their attack which adds torpor. The best way for taming one is to climb on a rock before attacking, so that they can´t knock you out. If there are no rocks in the general area or if the Pachy can climb the rocks, keep moving sideways to avoid its slow straight forward attack(this method takes constant attention).

## Location

Common dinosaur, can be found on the grasslands of the island.

Survival of the Fittest

**Survival of the Fittest** is a stand-alone Multiplayer Online Survival Arena (MOSA) spin-off of *ARK: Survival Evolved*, initially launched as a total conversion mod and tournament with Patch 200, before eventually being launched as a stand-alone spin-off game on March 15, 2016.

## Total Conversion

With it's release Survival of the Fittest now allows Mod Makers to create complete and total conversions to the game. SotF changes the map to introduce more pure PVP elements as opposed to the basic vanilla map. Crafting and engrams are changed, resources and tools are limited and Dinos rain from the sky.

Players and Tribes must work together to be the last human(s) alive similar to the popular book/movie series *The Hunger Games*.

## Tournament

The new mode was celebrated with a fierce battle on August 1, 2015 in which 70 survivors fought to the death for their lives. There were 35 teams of 2 competitors each, where the final tribe standing was awarded with a Grand Prized of $20,000 together with bonus gaming gear from Logitech and Gunnar Optiks! $10,000 and $5,000 will be sent for the second and third place. The top three tribes in tournament events are also awarded in-game Trophies that can be displayed on the Trophy Base.

A second tournament called Unnatural Selection, which featured four man tribes, six new Evolution Events, and the first appearance of the Dragon, took place on September 2, 2015. A third tournament called The Last Stand, which featured six man tribes and all three revealed bosses, the Broodmother, Dragon, and Megapithecus, took place on October 24, 2015. A fourth charity tournament called Naughty or Nice, which featured two one hundred man tribes and a holiday theme with the prize money going to charity, took place on December 28, 2015.

Trilobite

*Like most Trilobites, Trilobite Conchadurus is an opportunistic carnivore that feeds on anything smaller than itself which it can get a hold of. A sluggish creature, the Trilobite's best defense is its incredibly hard shell. This seems to be a common adaptation for the slower creatures of the island.*
*Trilobite is not a very good source of food. The creature seems to be made mostly out of internal organs and its defensive carapace. This is good for the Trilobite, as both river and ocean predators are less likely to prey on it if better options are around.*
*Domesticated*
*The Trilobite does not seem to have enough intelligence to be tamed. This doesn't mean it doesn't have its uses among resourceful survivors, though. Trilobites are easily one of the best sources of high quality Chitin on the island, assuming one doesn't wish to venture into the dangerous caves.*

The **Trilobite** is a small carnivorous aquatic invertebrate found on the Ark.

## Trivia

* The Trilobite is perhaps the easiest way to gather Chitin in the game, besides going into caves.
* The Trilobite is also a good way to get Oil and Silica Pearls without getting deeper in the ocean.
* As of Patch 193.0, the trilobite had its shallow water spawn nerfed as well as its chances of dropping Oil and Silica Pearls nerfed.
* Trilobite seem to spawn early in the morning along the coast line. If you're not high enough level to go down to the ocean floor, this is a good place to look.

### Trivia not relevant for the game

* Since the trilobite is from the Cambrian period, it is the oldest living species on the island, with the previous holder being Pulmonoscorpius, which is stated to have lived in the Silurian period.
* Trilobite is not a real genus, but a term given to the whole group known as trilobites. There are thousands of genera of Trilobites known to science, all appearing between 521 - 250 MYA.
* The Trilobite depicted in the game is very similar to Paradoxides. If this is the true identity of the Trilobite seen in ARK, its true scientific name would be Paradoxides conchadurus.
Storage

Containers used for the **storage** of items are crafted by recipes unlocked with engram points. There are four types of containers, the Storage Box, the Large Storage Box, the Bookshelf, and the Vault. Storage containers can be locked with a PIN code to prevent item looting by unauthorized players.

## Capacity

* Storage Box: 12 Stacks
* Large Storage Box: 30 Stacks
* Bookshelf: 100 Blueprints, Notes, Recipes, and Specimen Implants
* Vault: 150 Stacks

## Tips

Early on or if a player wishes to not spend points on these crafting recipes Dinosaurs can be used for storage and even slows rate of decay on food.
Sarcosuchus

*Among the island's water-based threats, Sarcosuchus Excubitor is a lot of what you might expect from a giant crocodile: A patient killing machine. It spends much of its days lazily waiting in the water for prey to walk near. That said, it is not opposed to scurrying onto land and pressing the issue when hungry.*
*A good tactic for escaping many predators is to jump into the water, as most are slow swimmers. This is a bad tactic for escaping a Sarcosuchus, obviously, as they are actually faster in the water than they are on land.*
*Domesticated*
*Despite being river-dwelling creatures, Sarcosuchus seem quite at ease in the oceans. More than a few fishing communities use them as mounts simply to help fight off Megalodons, or to gain better access to the resources found within the reefs.*

The **Sarcosuchus**, more commonly known as the **Sarco** or **Crocodile**, is a large carnivorous reptile found on the Ark.

## Appearance

It's larger than the player and one of the only dinosaurs too big to fit through most gates along with the Bronto. It's slow and easy to outrun making the taming and slaying of them easy enough on land albeit attempting to do so in the water is unheard of unless assisted by a greater aquatic predator. It should also be noted that the in-game Sarcosuchus has a length of up to 16.5 meters, slightly above it's maximum real-world length of 12 meters.

## Domestication

Despite being river-dwelling creatures, Sarcosuchus seem quite at ease in the oceans. More than a few fishing communities use them as mounts simply to help fight off Megalodons, or to gain better access to the resources found within the reefs.

The crocodile is a swimming mount. It is very hard to tame taking roughly 2 to 3 hours depending on level.

One will need a great deal of Narcotics in order to keep this great beast asleep.

## Locations

It's most commonly found swimming in clear blue rivers, swamps and the ocean from time to time.
Moschops

* In Ark: Survival Evolved
* In Real Life

*Moschops Cibumutante in the wild is a lethargic, cowardly creature that primarily lives in the forests of the island, primarily making its home among the great redwoods of the West. It survives by being extremely flexible in its eating habits and completely averse to fighting. It never starves, since it can eat just about anything. Moschops runs at the slightest provocation, but is still often preyed upon.*
*Domesticated*
*What makes Moschops particularly interesting is what it can be trained to do with its eating habits. With a versatile palate and tough teeth, Moschops can be tamed for a unique ability: over time it can be taught exactly which things to gnaw, increasing the likelihood of harvesting that exact resource which its master desires. For example, teach it to prioritize chewing Prime Meat, and Prime Meat will be easier to harvest from the flesh it consumes. Likewise for rare plants materials, and so forth!*
*Just don't expect Moschops to protect, though. Even after taming, it will quickly flee when enemies are nearby. Regardless of being fed well, increasing its strength, or how much affection you shower on it--Moschops retains its inherent cowardly nature!*

The **Moschops** is a medium sized omnivorous mammal (synapsid) found in the redwood forests of the Ark.

## Appearance

Despite its appearance, the Moschops is not a dinosaur or even a relative, but much more closely related to mammals as it is a Theraspid, or mammal-like ancestor. It has a barrel-shaped body to hold the large gut necessary for its varied diet with sprawled-out feet and a short tail. Perched on its body is a short, thick neck with a broad head.

## Trivia

* The dossier was revealed on April 11, 2016
* The Moschops' dossier suggests that it will live in the Redwood Biome.

### Trivia not relevant for the game

* The real-life counterpart was likely a herbivore and probably would not have eaten meat.
Rare Flower

The **Rare Flower** is an ingredient that can be used in several Recipes produced in the Cooking Pot or Industrial Cooker, including Battle Tartare and Mindwipe Tonic, and in the production of Re-Fertilizer. The Rare Flower is harvested from red bushes in the mountains and several types of plants in the swamps with any berry gatherer herbivore, preferably the Ankylosaurus.
Savoroot

The **Savoroot** is a crop used for food and as an ingredient in recipes and Kibble cooked in the Cooking Pot. The Savoroot only seems to be found as a seed from bushes and can be grown in the Medium Crop Plot or Large Crop Plot from a Savoroot Seed.

## Uses

The Savoroot is used as an ingredient in the following recipes and Kibble cooked in the Cooking Pot.

* Lazarus Chowder
* Enduro Stew
* Shadow Steak Saute
* Kibble (Ankylo Egg)
* Kibble (Carno Egg)
* Kibble (Spino Egg)
* Kibble (Trike Egg)

*Quite possibly the most intelligent non-human creature on the island, Troodon Magnanimus is an incredibly fast learner. It understands meaningful experiences much more quickly than other creatures (including humans), and its social nature means it also teaches its packmates, making them more clever too.*
*If Troodon's cleverness didn't make it formidable, then its tactics and biology do. It specifically pack-hunts at night when we are most vulnerable, and sees humans as its primary prey. This audacity is made especially dangerous due to its serrated fangs' poison, which drains stamina from any creature, but outright paralyzes humans. Thankfully Troodon is fairly small. Were it larger, it might well have become the dominant creature of its ecosystem.*
*Domesticated*
*I thought Troodon simply could not be tamed, until I finally saw a lone survivor with one. She told me that she let "Troody" hunt a few of her tribe's smaller creatures for sport, and it eventually started following her everywhere. It seems that while Troodon is too intelligent to fall for the rote conditioning of tranq-and-feed, it can instead gradually gain loyalty from a social approach that provides it the opportunity to hunt. Ever since, I have wondered at the benefits that a pack of ultra-smart, bred-for-battle Troodon may bring to a tribe brave enough to earn the favor of these clever carnivores.*

The **Troodon** (Tro-o-don) is a small carnivorous dinosaur found on the Ark.

### Taming

To tame a troodon you need to let it kill some of your tames dodos work well

## Trivia

* The dossier was revealed on November 9, 2015.
* According to the Dossier in "Domesticated" section, the Troodon will have its own unique taming mechanics, probably by feeding it live prey.
	+ In an ARK Digest, it is revealed that Troodons will work on an Affinity system, where any knocked out creature killed by the Troodon will add to the taming bar of whomever knocked out the prey. The higher-tier of prey will supposedly grant more affinity per kill.

* The dossier mentions that Troodon possesses a venomous bite that paralyzes it's human prey. This is possibly a reference to the Troodons of the Jurassic Park series (primarily in the novel and games), which was also nocturnal, and also possessed a venomous bite. Interestingly enough the bite of Jurassic Park's Troodon also had a paralytic effect, but this was in later stages. At first, the bite caused hallucinations which slowly drove the victim berserk, followed by convulsions and seizures, until finally paralysis and brain death.

### Trivia not relevant for the game

* While Troodon was one of the smartest species of non-avian dinosaurs, it was far less intelligent than the dossier implies, being only about as smart as a modern day Opossum.
* The skull seen in Troodon's dossier is nearly identical in appearance to that of the dinosaur Dromaeosaurus.
* In real life Troodon was probably an omnivore.

Spear

## Stone Spear

The **Spear** is the first main weapon in the game, it is best used as a throwing weapon because it can break after a little as one hit when used in melee. Thrown spears can be recovered from the ground or from a corpse.

Using spears to harvest meat will give you a higher chance of recovering prime meat from a dinosaur than using any other stone tool.
Pump-Action Shotgun

The **Pump-Action Shotgun** is a short ranged high tier weapon and holds six shells. The Pump-Action Shotgun can attach the Scope Attachment, Silencer Attachment, Flashlight Attachment, Laser Attachment, and Holo-Scope Attachment.

## Ammunition

The Pump-Action Shotgun fires the Simple Shotgun Ammo. This shotgun and the Shotgun are the only weapons to use this type of ammunition.
Pelt

**Pelt** is a resource that can be gathered from certain creatures by punching them, using the Stone or Metal Pick, the Stone or Metal Hatchet, or carnivores. The most effective way being the Hatchet, Sabertooth, or Direwolf. Pelt is most notably used as a material for crafting the Fur Gear, which allows for enhanced survival in the cold.

## Sources

* Castoroides
* Direbear
* Direwolf
* Mammoth
* Megaloceros
* Woolly Rhino
Paintbrush

The **Paintbrush** is a decoration tool that allows for the painting of structures with dyes.

The Paintbrush can be used to color your placed buildings by applying the dye to the Paintbrush, then equipping it and using it on the desired buildings. Some parts have multiple dyeable areas, making it possible to have different colors on the same building piece.

Once a dye is applied it is good for a limited amount of uses before the Paintbrush no longer has any paint on it, requiring another dye to be used.
Semionotus

**Semionotus** (meaning "flag-back") is an extinct genus of ray-finned fish found throughout Northern Pangaea (North America and Europe) during the late Triassic, becoming extinct in the Early Jurassic.

## In ARK: Survival Evolved

* A school of Semionotus (left) shown in the Baryonyx dossier
* A school of Semionotus (left and right) shown in the Ichthyornis dossier
* A school of Semionotus (left) shown in the Hesperornis dossier
1/3
Despite being shown in three dossiers, Semionotus itself doesn't appear in Ark: Survival Evolved, however it is not confirmed that the fish in the dossiers are consider to be Semionotus or just generic fish instead. It's possible this could mean that Semionotus will be added to the game as a alternative to the Coelacanth, but it's unlikely. One great idea would make these the alternative to coelacanth on The Center map.
Turkey

The **Super Turkey** is a wild bird that is only available during Ark Turkey Trial. Harvesting from turkeys allow players to craft or summon the DodoRex.

## Behavior

Super Turkeys wander around aimlessly, similar to and often mixing with groups of them. Attacking a Super Turkey will cause it to fight back, and any nearby wild creatures will attack or flee, depending on their temperament.

## Appearance

Super Turkeys look like modern day turkeys, but are extremely powerful. Don't be fooled about their appearance! They can kill you easily! They have extremely high defense so make sure to bring extra help in the form of a flying creature, giga, or friends.
Refining Forge

The **Refining Forge** is a refining structure for refining raw materials, which are important for making metal items and advanced technology. The Refining Forge can smelt Metal into Metal Ingots or refine Oil and Hide into Gasoline, with fuel (Wood, Thatch, Sparkpowder, or Angler Gel) without having to learn any other engrams.

A calculator is available ***here*** to help you automate the calculations of all forge types.

## Uses

* Smelt 2 Metal into 1 Metal Ingot
* Refine 3 Oil and 5 Hide into 5 Gasoline
* Burning 1 Wood produces 1 Charcoal
* Fuel: Wood, Thatch, Sparkpowder, or Angler Gel
Ravager

*Anywhere else, Canis Barghest's powerful muscles, wicked claws, and fearsome countenance would put it near the top of the food chain. Yet in these caves, this common, lupine predator resides somewhere in the middle. That said, it is an intelligent hunter with an exceptional ability to adapt. For example, it has learned to utilize the zip lines that survivors have built as a means of travel, all on its own. Remarkable!*
*Domesticated*
*The strong legs of the Canis Barghest make it an effective mount for many survivors, particularly for long distance travel. While other creatures outshine it when it comes to bursts of speed, its stamina and ability to climb across both natural vines and artificial ziplines makes it a highly versatile travelling companion.*

Titanomyrma

*Titanomyrma is one of the smaller creatures on the island; a frightening thought, when you realize it is the size of a dog.*
*A hive-minded herbivore, Titanomyrma usually goes about its business unless provoked.*
*When attacked or threatened, it releases a chemical which alerts all other Titanomyrma in a large range to help fight the aggressor.*
*I've seen two varieties of Titanomyrma: Drones and Soldiers. Drones are smaller, faster, and land-based, and they harvest for the hive. Soldiers are larger, slower and have wings; They defend the hive. If Titanomyrma is akin to other hive-insects, there must be queens too, but I've yet to encounter such a variant.*
*Domesticated*
*Because of it's hive mentality, I've not seen any successfully tamed Titanomyra on the island yet. Fortunately for lone survivors, separated Titanomyrma can be easily picked off for a small supply of Chitin among other valuable natural resources.*

The **Titanomyrma** is a small herbivorous invertebrate found on the Ark.

## Appearance

Two variants, the land-based **Drone** and the winged **Soldier**, appear in a few colors; namely blue and red carapaces.

## Notes

* Titanomyrma are able to inject its target with a poison that will drain stamina.
* Whether it is a glitch or not it appears that currently the Titanomyrma Soldiers and Drones do not need to be provoked and will indeed follow a player even after respawning if in the same zone.

## Eggs

Titanomyrma are not observed to lay eggs currently, this is likely due to them not yet being implemented for them.

Raw Prime Meat

**Raw Prime Meat** is a consumable used to more quickly and effectively tame carnivores and can be cooked in the Campfire or Industrial Grill to produce Cooked Prime Meat. The Compsognathus can only be tamed with Raw Prime Meat. The Alpha Predators are the best source of Raw Prime Meat.
