r/ARK on Reddit: HOW TO GET ELEMENT IN ASCENDED?!
October 30, 2023 -

I have been trying to figure out how we’d start crafting Tech stuff, but since there are no metal dinos atm to get Element dust, I’m unsure where to go from here..

Anyone have any ideas?

Would anyone know how to change the amount of element you receive from charge nodes? I would like to get about 10 per craft. Playing on nitrado unofficial

Nope, I tried and tried but ended up need to install a Mod to do it.

"Configurable Charge Nodes" does a great job; it changes things so the nodes craft an Element Bundle that you then unpack into a stack of element (configurable with a multiplier).

The other one I looked at was "Better Crafting Aberration Element", which doesnt change the the Element return per Resource Cost like the other one does, but it does let you change the recipe itself and all the timers involved in Element Crafting (Charge Rates, Node reset, etc) so you can take a lot of the pain of the Grind out. Ultimately didnt use it because we instead built a S+ element farm with the S+ Element Catalyzers and S+ Charge Station.

At the end of the day though, we'd slapped a x10 multiplier and it felt a little cheaty, so we used it just enough to build an Element Farm with the S+ structures. That requires a base in the Red since the catalyzers need to be placed in liquid element. Then you get a charge station and a metric f-ton of featherlights. The charge station sucks Charge out of the Charge animals and refills all the Charge Batteries needed, then you can craft as much element as you want in the catalyzers with no Node reset cooldown to worry about.

We felt the farm route gave us way more more of a sense of accomplishment for getting established on the Tek Tier, as a compromise between the unplayable grind that was charge node farming on a two-man server and just modding the effort entirely away. Or worse, changing the recipe so that the (at least) new and interesting Node farming just became some other standard resource farming of gems or crystal or pearls or something.

r/ARK on Reddit: Any way to transfer element between maps? Updated mods?

Hi all. My friends and I are playing on a PvE private non-dedicated server, which one of us is hosting locally on their machine. We are about to complete The Island and will be going to Scorched Earth. We plan to follow the storyline map sequence.

 

Is there anyway to bring the Element with us? We could otherwise only get it from the final boss of SE, and it would be useless by then.

 

I understand there used to be some mods that helped with this. Any that still work? Thank you in advance!!

May 13, 2022 - Element has always been craftable between shards and full ele. You need a replicator or a gen 2 mission terminal. However, it seems there is a small bug with either the sack mod or game preventing shards from making element

Hey guys, does anyone know if it’s possible to change the 100 element shards cost for 1 element via ini for both ASE and ASA? I always thought that 100 shards for one piece of element was way too much for a solo player, so i want to change it to 10 to make it more fair. Please let me know if there’s an ini to do that thanks

so for those unaware, 15 blue gems, 8 fully charged batteries, 50 congealed gas balls, 20 element ore, 20 green gems, and 10 red gems are required in one of the charge stations to craft element. this produces ONE ELEMENT.

that alone, ok sure it's tedious but i can live with it, but it puts the tower on a 6 min cooldown followed by another 10-20 min "charge up" period before it's usable again. I was kind of thinking it'd be an alternative to raising rexes to grind element, but i guess not, so why bother?

Primarily looking for something that will allow building items not in my inventory. Items like foundations, ceilings etc. We play PVE and large builds, I do not want to craft 300+ ceilings/foundations/roofs 6 items at a time in my personal inventory.

We are runnning CS QOL+, but the CS Smithy does not add these structures to our list. I'm looking for something that will just churn out the vanilla structures, if others are required thats okay, but not looking for anything too altering. Eyeballing Radical Crafters, but unsure it will apply clean on an existing world.
