Utility-wise, the Therizinosaur offers a lot outside of being good land transportation. Despite its small size in comparison, the Therizinosaur is more than capable of holding its own against a T-Rex or Spinosaurus. Though it may be an herbivore, these terrifying dinosaurs will attack players if they wander into their territory. This ferocious theropod comes equipped with long, sharp claws that are as dangerous as they look. The Therizinosaur is one of the most dangerous dinosaurs in Ark for unprepared players, but also a great boon once tamed. Overall, the Argentavis is the perfect example of a jack of all trades but master of none that excels in the early to mid-game but falls off in the late game to stronger options. This includes hunting for meat needed to eat or be used to tame other animals. These prehistoric birds are also good fighters against most of Ark's hostile creatures. It excels at transporting stone and metal as it receives a weight-reduction multiplier for those heavy materials. Though not the fastest flying creature, the Argentavis can be leveled up to be a great transportation and pack animal. The saddle used to ride the Argentavis also allows players to craft on the go, making it even better for long-term trips. Once tamed, Argentavis becomes a jack-of-all-trades, especially for transportation if the elusive Quetzal cannot be found. This eagle/vulture hybrid is easy to find around the mountains on The Island and easy to tame. Riding on creatures with Tek Saddle does not require the Tekgram, however.Īstrocetus Tek Saddle requires Tekgram to utilize its other turret seat, but not when riding in the rider seat.The Argentavis is a simple prehistoric bird, but its simplicity, magnificent looks, and overall utility make it the second-best aerial dino in the game. However, to utilize such ability, the saddle has to be learnt from beating Bosses containing such tekgram. Tek Saddles have the ability to shoot bullets with Element when activated with Ctrl and pressed with right click. Attacks from the poison breath of Poison Wyvern and Basilisk: 0 (Completely ignore saddle armor).Attacks from Lighting Wyvern's breath: 0.1 (2.5% damage reduction from a 25 armor saddle).Attacks from Mantas and Therizinosaur: 0.4 (9.09% damage reduction from a 25 armor saddle).Attacks from Alpha Raptors: 1 (20% damage reduction from a 25 armor saddle).Melee attacks from most of regular dinos (Rexes, Giga, Trike, Brontos and etc): 4 (50% damage reduction from a 25 armor saddle).It can vary widely with some examples are shown below: It is usually 4, but there are some exception. all dinos.įor dino damage, the Armor Coefficient against saddle varies on the attacker. As of patch 231.4 turrets do 2.2x damage vs.(request verification of vs Turret calculation)įor explosive damage against saddles, the Armor Coefficient has a value of 1.ĭamageMultiplier = 100 / (100 + 1 * Armor)Įxample using 750 explosive damage ( Grenades and rockets from a primitive Rocket Launcher) against a creature:įor bullet damage and player melee weapon against saddles, the Armor Coefficient has a value of 4.ĭamageMultiplier = 100 / (100 + 4 * Armor)Įxample using 60 bullet damage (bullet from a Simple Pistol) against a creature: This graph demonstrates the diminishing returns of damage reduction from saddle armor. In most cases, Armor Coefficient value 4 is applied against saddle and 1 is applied against survivor's armor. The value of the Armor Coefficient varies based on the source of the damage and are shown in the following sections. There are two different type of Armor Coefficient value in each damage source, the first one is a value against survivor's armor and the second one is a value against saddles on creatures.įor example, bite attack of the Rex has the Armor coefficient value 4 against creature's saddle and Armor coefficient value 1 against survivor's armor. Saddle Armor īy gathered in-game data, the following formulas were derived for calculating damage reduction to dinos from armor.ĭamageMultiplier = 100 / (100 + Armor Coefficient * Armor) TotalDamage = Damage * DamageMultiplier DamageReduction = 1 - DamageMultiplierĪrmor Coefficient is the unique value that each source of damage has, representing how much each attack affected by an armor. Titan Platform Saddles are not included here as they are not crafted, but automatically equipped on tamed Titans. With the exception of the Roll Rat Saddle, saddles don't lose durability, and it is not visible on tooltips. Saddles made with Blueprints can have better stats. All Tek Saddles made from Tekgrams have 45 Armor. The Titanosaur Platform Saddle has 1.0 Armor. Carbonemys, Trike, Pachyrhinosaurus, Diplodocus, Paracer, Paracer Platform and Bronto(not platform) have 20 Armor. Most Saddles made with Engrams have 25 Armor.
