PeglegTheAngry 99 Posted July 30, 2019 (edited) All I want... is some good bears. Ive had to kill the same Alpha lion THREE times today. Yes it died, yes a new one took it's place. I keep losing ALL of my progress to it; since all of my progress hinges on a bear. This is one of the many reasons this game is dying. I'm ready to call it quits myself. This deluge of un-fun bullshit makes me want to scream. Every time I find a high level tame, it dies in some horrible and spectacular way. Is there a dev watching me or something?

NoobieDooz 50 Posted July 30, 2019 Sorry to hear that. I remember what it was like before having better tames, it was a real uphill struggle for sure. If you are playing solo, taming can be even more annoying. It is Always better to have a second person as "guard' to help out with unwanted predators disturbing. Other tip is to wear plate armor if possible. Also I have noticed that some Islands are a bit more difficult in terms of more predator spawns and more alphas spawning (sometimes it even seems bugged). I haven't written down which Islands I have found "easier", but you could try a few different ones. On our very small island there are very rarely predators and alphas, I have seen alpha rattle snake and wolf only once, in a months time or so. I usually run around naked without weapon or bear. there are a few bees but i can run from them or carry a sword. On the beach there usually no bees at all. There are bears there so if you wanna try that island you could. You might have to kill bears to make high level spawn tho but maybe you know that. It is in D11, on the East side in grid, the third island up, if you count/see from bottom grid line. If you are in EU pve I might even be able to give you a nice bear, I have quite a few of them. Just the other day I found 2 abandoned hugh lvl ones on a Beach. The other day I found abandoned elephant and rhino. That is Another tip, sail around doing treasure maps and you are likely to find abandoned tames. Good luck, I know it can be tough but hang in there. Once you have your tames get them a Nice solid shelter (built in stone) if ye want to reduce risk for them getting killed. ) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NoobieDooz 50 Posted July 30, 2019 (PS if you are in EU pve and want a bear for free, and find D11 very far, I also have other bases spread out on map so just direct message me, if so.) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Is there a dev watching me or something? Thats really sucks, but this is the game. I was lucky and some friends gift me some WL94er bears in the part. If you want we can mate them and you can claim the babies and raise them up in our base Its a safe base and no lion will be there If you are interested send me a DM and we will talk about the time - Anne Beaglellove Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
INVALID 1,037 Posted July 31, 2019 That is some unfortunate RNG. The chance for a creature to be an alpha is pretty low so you've been unlucky in this scenario. No one is watching you but I'm glad there are a helpful group here to give you a hand 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PeglegTheAngry 99 Posted July 31, 2019 Me too! The experience on PvE is SO much better than PvP. I am really happy I made the switch. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Welcome to ATLAS, if you expect to have some progress here, well... good luck, my suggestion? move on to another game just as 90% of the initial population did. (btw if you are into taming shit there is a new MMO coming wich based on that, is called "Astellia", closed beta just happened next is the open beta later this year.

Am still trying, after 10 hours to find the relation of Ark and Atlas to those games.. Oh! you can break rocks in wow too, got it! I have lost a total of 1 crewmember to a wild beast on land.. and have been playing since Jan. I think RNG loves me or maybe, I keep them safe behind stone walls with a buffer short wall, cuz of the pesky Cobra poking heads in. BTW: Grapeshot fix your game! My crew members all agro on a BULL.. low level as well.. and it got one before it went down. my fault though, I hit it while harvesting fiber and had them set on neutral, hanging out in an off duty shed, nearby. Still FIX your game I have had crew members mutiny before though, on login same as your baby dying on it. but, was on multi play so the short time I was out of game, the time was still going for them in game.
